earth by water and everywhere finds ships
and flags, Of other nations but
never sees the American banner.
The flag is not to be found
because there are no ships to carry it, and
there will be ne ships as long as we handi-
cap our own citizens by making them pay
the price which others have to pay plus IS
per cent. Americans, if they own ships
and become competitors for the carrying
trade, must carry other than the American
flag. They cannot afford to indulge in that
luxury, the expense being too great.
When the United States treat their citi-
zens with the same degree of
generosity which Great Britain
and other governments show for
their own enterprising people, person
will net be able to go from Southampton
to Canton without seeing the American
flag. The American carrying trade will
be controlled by Americans, the carrying
being done in ships owned by Americans
and floating the American flag. American
ships will goeverywhere, just as they did
in years agone, for American enterprise is
able to compete with the world on fair
footing

IDAHO.

The Senate committee on territories has
directed the chairman to report favorably
the bill for the admission of Idaho under
the Boise constitution, which denies citi-
zenship to every member of the Mormon
church. This action comes as natural and
almost necessary consequence of the recent
decision by the supreme court asserting the
validity of the Idaho law which does for the
territory precisely what the constitution
proposes to do for the state. The commit
tee, it will be remembered, delayed &C
ton as to the matter until the
supreme court should decide the
question of constitutionality, the under
standing being that the recommend
alton would be for or against statehood
under the Boise constitution according as
the court should sustain or deny the
validity of the territorial statute and thus
determine the legality of the proposition
that under the federal constitution man
can be disfranchised on account of his
religious belief. The court having given
its opinion, the report noted in our tele-
graphic columns necessarily follows. Nor
is this all. The probability is that the
recommendation OF the committee will be
adopted, and Idaho made state
1t will be Republican in politics as
matter of course, will send two
Republicans to the Senate and one to the
House and give the party candidate for the
Presidency in 1892 there electoral votes.
Both branches of Congress being under
Republican Control Democratic opposition
TO the scheme will be futile
The HERALD believes, as it has asserted
SO many times during the past year, that
it will be almost disaster for Idaho to be
made state at this time, neither her pop
ulation nor her wealth being sufficient to
bear the increased burdens of state gov
eminent. We fear that it will be another
Nevada rotten borough, and fer the people
who will suffer we have sympathy

The DOCTORS DISAGREE.

The Liberal lawyers evidently do not
hold the legal opinion of Judge PowERs in
very high esteem. The latter. on hearing
that Inspector BoNFIELD was in this coun-
try and keeping an eye on the movements
OF the Liberal party, saw fit for prudential
or other reasons best known to himself TO
publicly announce that no man could le-
gally vote who had not been six months in
Utah and one month in some precinct of
this city, at the timc of his taking the reals
trGtion oath. But Mr.. POWERS inadvertently
admitted that the announcement cost the
Liberal party six hundred votes: and fear
that this was So brought CONSERVATION to
the Liberal ranks and under the stimulus
of probable defeat the Liberal committee.
or someone in its name, announced that
any person who is registered and had been
in Utah six months and in this city one
month on the day of election could vote. We
know that there are great many devious
ways in the law, and that doubtful passages
are often construed contrary to our own
opinions but we think there can be no diff
ferences OF opinion as to the construction
OF the following pas sage from the law of
Congress, known as the Edmunds-Tucker
law, section "a:
That every male person twenty one years OF age
resident in the territory OF Utah SHALL as con-
dition precedent to his right to register or vote
at any election in said territory, take and sub
scribe an oath or affirmation before the regis
tration officer of his precinct, that he is over
twenty-one years of age, and has resided in the
territory Of Utah for six months then last
passed, and in the precinct for one month i'm
mediately preceding the date thereof and that
he is a native born (or naturalized as the case
may be- citizen of the United States etc.

AS TO MAJORITY RULE.

The other day, in the course of his effort
to justify his bulldozing course in depriv-
ing the minority in the House of Repre-
sentatives of its rights, Speaker REED
said: 1.-The rule of the majority is the
very base of our government" Nobody
knows better than Mr.. REED that what he
says is not true, even in theory, and that it
is very far from the truth in actual prac
tice. If it were true, Mr.. TnDEN, with a
a quarter of million more votes than his
opponent, would have been President of
the republic; to-day GROVER CLEvE-
LAND would be the occupant of
the White House, for one hundred
thousand more votes were cast for him
than for General HARRISON. And again,
how is it in the Senate branch of Con
gressa The great state of New York, with
its many millions of people, rules in the
Senate no more than the rotten borough
of Nevada, with its $1,000 people There is
not much majority rule in this. If the rule
of the majority is the base OF our govern
ment, how is it that it requires two thirds
vote to overcome a Presidential veto?
Why does it require three fourths of the
states to adopt an amendment to the con-
stitutions
Coming down to local case in point, let
US ask Mr.. REED how he can reconcile his
assertion that the rule of the majority is the
base of the government with his action
in the matter of certain bills relating to
Utah! The present speaker has been
among the foremost in advocacy OF those
bills, which becoming law deprived the
majority of the power to rule, giving al
most absolute rule to the minority The
majority has no voice as to the executive: it
has nothing to Say as to the judiciary; it is
deprive OF the right to sit on iuries; even
the election machinery has been placed in
the hands of the minority, and Mr.. REED
was conspicuous among those who sub
lectcd the majority to the minority.
We imagine that the speaker wants to be
understood as meaning that the rule of the
majority is the base of our government so
long as his party composes that majority.
Ii he were with the minority then he
would think that the majority should not
rule. Speaker REED is more partisan
politician than statesman, and his interpre-
tations of our theory of government are
those of the politician

years ago, in the State Of New

planned by their children, James,
Martha and John, and surrounded
