Liberal. IMPROVEMENTS.

One ofthe most amusing things IN
aLiberaI'' maneuvres is the boast OF
the ssLiberal'' orgsn that the streets
Of this city have been wonderfully
1improved.v AS an Offset 20 the
charge that the "LIberal'' City
Council have emptied the Treasury
insix months, the ''inproYement' Of
the streets is paraGed, as though
that was an unansgera5le answer.
The fact i, the streets were never,
in the fall OF the year, in such a
horrible condition as they are now.
It Is impossible to drive along any
street in the city without encoun-
tering distractions that are danger
Gus to vehicles ami to passengers.
The @Liberal'' organ talks about
s'bouIevaris'' ssrolled smooth so
that the drive is n delight" And
it boasts Of the agrades" that have
bsen made, which are really detri-
msnt to property, Of no benefit to
the public and 4 waste Of money
that is deplorable. /; Gays 'srhe
amount Of work performed cannot
be eomprehendei at all except by a
careful examination Quite cor
rect. ItwoulI require a microscopic
examination.
We have no dOub. that figures
enough can be produced to show ex-
penditures In this direction. The
same sheet boasts OF the big pay
roll OF the city. Nobody disputes |
this. Everybody knows that money |
has been freely poured out. The
question is, where are the extraor-
dinsry improvements. They are
not visible 10 the naked eye. And |
the places pointed out are, most OF
them, in an awful condition for
trsfiic.
II the streets have been SO won
derfully improved that to drive over
them Is "a delight" why does the
organ say in the next breath that,
"men cannot comprehend it except
by mixing an actual survey, going
up one street and down another"
Such ''sm0oth," ''delightful-
''boulevards' ought TO be "com-
pretended" without any careful
examination or geode.ic SURVEY
4 drive Cup" or "down'' the
streets, instead Of being ''deIightD
Is a vexation aud n caIse Of profan-
ity.
The sams shee', on is editorial
page brags Of the "sp-inkiing'' As
superior to anything heretofore per
formed in the city, aud on its local
page echoes the epithets Of all
classes Of the people about the alter
nate streaks OF mud and dust and
the stupidity aud inefiiciency Of the
service.
The streets are really in an abom-
nable condition, and whatever may
be the result when the work that Is
costing 50 much Of the peoples
money is completed, at present they
arc 50 rough, rocky, fdrroweI, Oh
structei ami torn up, that the i'm
pudent boasting OF the ''Liberal''
'rgan affords bat very Temporary
amusement 70 those who have the
- drive in a hurry OF
who seek pleasure in 4 carriage ride
'Liberal'' expenditure is only
'qualled by "Liberal'' brag.

WYOMING AND THE "AORuOS,,
VOTE.

THE political complexion Of the
new STATE Of Wyoming is still a
matter OF doubt. The returns Of the
e!sctiou come in very slowly. This
is not TO be wondered at when the
remote situation of some Of the
counties is considered.
\ dispatch from Cheyenne to the
"Liberal'' organ Of this city says:
wyoming is tonight 4 doubtful
State, but viii bc quite strong one
way OF the other. This Is duhiou.
enough for an enigma.ic puzzle
But the ''Liberal'' organ solves it in
q trice, and does 50 IN its usual con.
vincing and logical style. Here is
its solution: THAT simply means
that the Mormon vote was an un-
knownfactor."
The object OF thus bringing in the
mormon" question 10 aid in turn
ing light upon dark ssyiag is seen
in succeeding comments. First, Il
is surmised that the saints DO moi
wish the Democrats to lose
two Senator'S and a Repre-
sentative" Next Il is quer-
led whether ''NIr. Carey has
secured TO the Republicans the
Mormon vote in Wyoming" Then
it is asserted that ''the people OF
Wyoming knew tina; the AIormons
had been instructed to vote so- ONE
ticket or the other anI that they
would c0ey the instructions. Next
a lot OF expletives are thrown in
about the shame OF permitting the
franchise 70 be used in this way.
Finally disfranchisement of the
''Mormons" is urged in the usual
style of that American 81 and Re
publican 90 journal.
This is As good foam !ation as all
its pFetex;s Icr political oppression Of
the "Mormons" are built upon. The
"Norm9ns" ought rot to he permit
tel = vote First, beclIse it Is
doubtful what ticket they will sus-
tain. Stc1nd, because they would
mos. likely vote the Democratic
ticket Third, bee use it is sur
missed, imagined, supposed, that they
vote under instructions. There is
nothing more alleged rs an excuse
forihe passage Of bills, designed to
prevent thousands OF citizens from
exercising one Of the most precious
and almost essential rights OF citi-
zenship.
The whole pretended argument
turns on a chimericai superstition.
There is not a scrap Of proof,
shred of evidence, a particle Of
testimony showing that the s'Mor-
mons" in Wyoming have been sin.
structedD by any one, either in or
out Of the Stale, TO vote for any
person or party. There
is nothing to demonstrate the AS
sumed position that they would
vote in any other way than ac-
cordins to their own convictions Of
what was best.
To base an Argument on such an
Insuostantiai hypothesis, as though
L was a self-evident or indisputabIe
lat, is the very anupodes OF reason
Ing and can only be described as
ordinary Tribune logic.
We repeat once more that IN.
Mormon" voters Of Wyoming. Of
Colorado, OF Arizona, Of Utah ans
,lsewhere,are as free to deposit their T,
'allots for the candidates they wish ,
o sustain as are the freest citizens
n any part OF the United States. /,
And those who assert TO the con- {
rary have nothing to support theIe j
allegations, while their
drawn from u vacuum {

nd unwarranied but exhibit 4 rash {
