THE SIBERIAN EXILE PETITION.

1t will be interesting to learn in what
manner the Car receives the petitions
which the Siberian Exile Petition associa-
ton of Philadelphia proposes to send him.
Copies of the paper are being circulated
throughout the union, and as it costs moth
ing TO sign, four or five million names will
undoubtedly be attached. The petition,
after praising the Car and gushing over
his father, represents ''that in the punish
ment of some Of her subjects Russia.
whether from causes peculiar to her peo-
pie, or on account of ancient custom, is
not in harmony with the humanizing senti-
ments of the age. 1t is our wish that by
the wisdom and power of the Car and the
favor of God, Russia may grow in the
admiration and sympathy of the American
people and of the whole civilized world"
This is delicate and diplomatic way of
saying that in the opinion of the American
people Russia is brutal and inhuman in the
treatment of its prisoners, and humble as
is the request that he will modify the rigor
CT the penal administration the Car will
doubtless read between the lines the words
and sentiments not expressed. Doing
this win he not charge the people of the
United States with the sin of ingratitude!
It must be confessed that of all the great
powers Russia is the solitary one that has
been uniformly and courageously the friend
of the republic. With all the others there
have been times when the friendly rela-
tions were strained, and if rupturcs have
not occurred they have been unprecedented.
During the perilous days of the rebellion
the Car was the fast friend of the union,
and his friendship assumed form more
substantial than words. 1t will never be
known how much of lettering influence
his demonstration in behalf of the United
States had upon the other powers, especi-
ally upon Great Britain and the inconstant
NAPOLEON, but it viii always be believed
that the alliance which Russia made so
prominent at the proper moment saved
as some trouble. The present Car
has also shown his regard and respect for
the republic. To now be censured by the
American people, TO be made to realize that
this country is the headquarters of the ag-
itation which has for its ultimate object
the overthrow Of his government, and to
feel that our sympathies are with those
who are conspiring and scheming against
his life, may cause him to think that we
are not his best friends and lack apprecia-
ton of the uniform kindness of Russia
towards the United States. This may be
the effect, we say, but is it not more prob
able that the Gar will first say that we
are nation Of ingrates, and then that we
are interfering in matters which do not
concern US He may also ask what we
would think of him if he were to request
us to inaugurate reforms in our own local
affairs. The feeling of humanity prompts
Americans to issue this appeal in behalf OF
the unfortunate Siberian exiles, but diplo-
matte WISDOM suggests the inadvisability
Of forwarding the monster the petition
which it is proposed TO send.

THE SCHEME.

Regardless of public sentiment or de-
cency, the Republican members of Con
gress seem bent on making Republican
states of all the territories before the
party of the people can regain control of
the government and prevent the great
wrong. Our Washington spondent,
in his dispatch of Thursday morning, de-
tailed howsthe House committee ca terri
tories was advancing the scheme. By a
strict party vote, a clause was inserted in
the recently introduced bill for the dis
reimbursement of Utah, making the provis-
ion applicable to al! the territories. Idaho
having the DISTINGUISHING clause in her con
stitution will be Republican beyond re-
demption. AS the Democrats of Wyom-
Ing are hopefully in the minority the pro-
vision will not change the politics of the
state, the Mormons up there being so few
in number. Arizona will be made hope
lessly Republican, and therefore taken into
the union at once, or as soon as the Re
publicans can get together and adopt con-
stitution embo dying the DISTINGUISHING
provision. The Mormons in Utah
being denied the right to vote
The Republicans will have things
their own way, and the territory, with an
anti-Mormon constitution, can be admitted
by the present Congress and thus enabled
10 vote at the Presidential election in 1892
Only New Mexico will be left out in the
cold In the absence of the Democratic
Mormons there the Republicans will prob
ably find some excuse for denying the
tight to vote to enough Mexicans to in
sure the state being Republican at least a
the first national election.
THE HERALD told of the scheme a yeal
ago, and we have since noted how closely
The Republican party has followed the
plan marked out. Nothing can shame OF
drive the organization from its purpose
Having set out to keep itself in power thu
party sets at defiance law, justice and pre-
sedent, and plunges ahead, and impudentll
says to the opposition, ''what are yol
going to do about its''

THE CHAMBER AND THE LOBBYISTS.

Our Washington correspondent wires
that it is believed at the capital that Gov
ernor THOMAS and Ex-Governor WEST are
assisting BAsKIN in urging the passage of
the bill for the Acknowledgement of the
Mormons. We can readily believe this.
Every time THOMAS and WEST goes to
Washington some scheme which has for its
object the injury and oppression of the
people of Utah is sprung in Congress or
some dirty work against this territory is
done. Both these men are in the habit of
denying that they are responsible for any
of the trickery, but they cannot deny that
the jobs always come to the surface while
they are at the capital, and everybody here
thinks them equal to any mean, under
handed work that can be conceived
But it was not particularly of these
scrubs as individuals that we wished to
talk this morning. AS we understand it,
and If it is not true the fact can be as
serted, the chamber Of commerce is paying
part or all the expenses of THOMAS and
WEST Oh this trip, an appropriation of sew
eral hundred dollars having been made for
the purpose. The ostensble object of the
visit was to further the federal building
bill and if possible induce the House to re-
store the appropriation to the sum named
in the Senate bill-S500,0 900. Now, we sug-
gest, in the first place that it is no part of
the business of the chamber to take part in
local or national politics, nor to take sides
with the political parties; second, that the
money of the chamber cannot be legiti-
mately or lawfully used for lobbying
against the rights and interests of any por-
ton Of the community, and third, that a
good many Mormons are members of the
chamber, contributing their cash to the
chambers fund and doing their share of
the proper labor of the association. Is it
the square thing that the money of these
men should be used to deprive them and
their friends of the rights of citi-
zens! Is it decent that their cash should
pay the wages of hired lobbyists to
scheme for the passage of bill that will
make three-fourths of the citizens of Utah
political outcasts and little less than slaves
to the lobbyists and the minority they re,
present! If the chamber of commerce is to
be run on these lines it should so announce
the fact, and come out as an annex to the
Alta club. If it is going to be run on legiti
mate lines, and for the purposes for which
it was organized, it should recall its presi-
dent and other paid and accredited agents,
and rebuke them for going outside their de
fined duties in scheming for the injury OF
chamber members and the Utah commun-
ity.
In this connection it may be mentioned
that numerous Mormon business men and
property-owners are just now being
solicited to join the chamber and with Their
influence and gold help carry on the work
If THOMAS and WEST are travelling and liv-
ing on chamber funds these solicitations
might as well be discontinued at once, fol
1t is unreasonable to assume that intelli
gent gentlemen will be eager to hire enemies
to work for their destruction.

Remarkable Rescue.

Mrs. Michael Curtain, Plainfield, H.,
makes the statement that she caught cold
which settled on her lungs; she was treated
for month by her family physician, but
grew worse. He told her she was hope
less victim of consumption, and that no
medicine could cure her. Her druggist sug-
gested DR.. Kings New Discovery for Con
sumption; she bought bottle, and to her
delight found herself benefited from trst
dose. She continued its use, and after tax
ing ten bottles found herself sound and

MARSHAL Parsons has triumphed over
his enemies and his nomination has been
confirmed by the Senate. He is aow firmly
fixed in the office and will doubtless serve a
full term of four years. THE HERALD is
glad that the gentleman has won. We are
glad, not on account Of any special admira-
ton for the marshal, but because we be-
Iieve he is better man than most of those
who were opposing him and because, fur
Their, the fight upon him was dirty and con-
temptible. Ever since his appointment
