Another Vermonter Advanced.

Another promising Vermonter, one of q
younger generation this time, is deservedly
promoted in the person of Mr.. Frank c.
Partridge Of Proctor, who has for some
time been the private secretary Of Secreta-
ry Proctor. Mr., Partridge who succeeds
Mr. Walker Blaine as solicitor Of the state
department. as has already been announced
in the FREE PRESS, Is a thorough Vermont
err. He was born in East Middlebury, edu-
Gated at the Middlebury High school, and
was graduated from Amherst college in
1882, and from the Columbia Law school in
1886 In all three of these schools he stood
at the head of his class. After graduating
from the Columbia Law school he was Ad-
mitted to the bar in Vermont, and has since
then been treasurer and financial manager
of the Vermont Marble company until
about year ago, when he went to Wash
ington as private secretary for Secretary
Proctor. The position to which Mr.. Part
ride has been appointed is a responsible one.
In addition to his regular duties he is
brought into confidential relations with the
secretary Of state, and the position Is re-
garded us one Of the particularly good ap,
pointments under the government. Hi:
many friends in Vermont are glad to learn
Of his success.

Still They Come.

Still they come. Mr. Page continues to
show considerable anxiety for candidate
who is 'going to win" He concludes the
latest circular letter sent out from his bureau
at Hyde Park, under date of June 6, thus:

out delay and confer as to the best methods of
securing II full attendance at your caucus, The
friends of Col Woodbury. will be exceedingly

Recipients of these circulars in this
neighborhood say that they are becoming
oppressive. We cannot find room for one
half these letters that are sent to this office,
but gladly give MIR. Page the benefit of our
circulation occasionally. Meanwhile, a
majority of the supposed page towns -
where caucuses were called early 'for

Let the good work go on.
In this connection we note as the richest
thing that has been called out by this some
what heated campaign, the following from
the Barre Enterprise of this week:
Mr.. Page has had but little to do with hi,
canvass, but through the earnestly solicitation
of his friends allowed his name to be used.
If Mr.. Page has any sense of humor he

Our democratic exchanges continue to
boom Mr.. Page for governor apparently
oblivious of the fact that they have a can
didate of their own in the field. Candidate
Brigham must feel highly complimented by
the support he is receiving. He frankly
admitted in his speech accepting the demo
cratic nomination that he expected to be
defeated, but it is hardly possible that he
expected that his party supporters would so
soon forget him.

The State papers, SO far as they have
reached us at this writing, are remarkably
quiet about the results of the republican
caucuses thus far held. One of them, how
ever, ventures to remark that Monkton's
three delegates for Woodbury. and Bristol's
five delegates for Page, fairly shows the
relative strength of the two candidates!
In view of the fact that about two out of
three of the delegates thus far chosen to the
State convention are for Woodbury., which
really shows the relative strength of the
two candidates, the assumption on the part
of the exchange above referred to is refresh
ing.
The friends of both candidates for the
governorship advise voters to look closely
to the caucuses This is right. Voters
should also make sure that they know the
day and hour of the caucuses. We hear of
one town where the time for holding the
caucus was so poorly advertised that,
curiously enough some of the friends OF
Col. Woodbury. did not learn Of it until
noon of the day it was announced to be
held. The Woodbury. men in this instance
got there all the same, but his friends in
other localities, where the caucuses may be
held between now and next Saturday night,
should see to it that there be no misunder-
standing III this particular.
Does any one believe that it would dam
age the political prospects OF the younger
of the two candidates for governor in thi,
State if he were to stand gracefully back
and let the veteran with the empty sleeve
have a unanimous nomination We believe
that he would be the gamer by such l
course in the long run. But at any rate il
well for the voter to remember that Tho
veterans of the war for the Union are pass
ing away. They will not be here long tc
stand in the way of ambitious aspirants
The time is near at hand when those who
survive will be too old to be candidates fol
public office; and such honors as the peopl,
have to bestow must be bestowed now Of
not at all.

The ORGANIZED labor associations should
keep up their efforts to prevent the COM
ing here of too many workingmen. There
are far too many here now, contractors and
builders being daily applied to for employ
ment by men out of work and short of
money. In little while, when the rock
famine has been relieved and brick comes
in, there will be more work, and perhaps
enough to employ all the idle at present in
the city, but if we are correctly informed
the improvements in contemplation will re-
quire not many more mechanics and labor
ers than are now here. We need not tell
the labor organizations that an over.
supply of workingmen is injurious, and
would be peculiarly so here, so far re-
moved from the employment centres.
Wages would suffer, for needy men will
work for what they can get when they
cannot get what they want, and employers
will pay no more than they have to. THE
HERALD believes in fair wages, and the
way to maintain them is to keep the labor
supply about equal to the demand.

Extensive advertising being deemed advis-
able. those who had the money went down
into their pockets for the cash to meet the
expense, knowing that they would get ex :
cellent returns from the investment.
knowing that their newspapers were help
ing the city, the journals were supported
and encouraged, and not warred against by
any portion of the community The Den
yer papers are marvels of greatness, be-
cause the Denver people have helped them
to be great. In brief, the story of the
building of the wonderful city on the other
side of the range is story of cooperation
and united effort on the part of the COM
munlty.
We are not going to make ugly compari-
sons, but we will say that the Salt Lake
community could, if it would, learn val
liable lesson in city building by studying
the methods and patterning after the SEN
timents of the Denver people. 1t is in our
power to achieve in one year what we are
doing in three or four, but in order to do
this we must labor tremendously and one
faction must not insist upon tearing down
what another is building. In fact, there
must be no such thing as faction in mat
tiers pertaining to the growth and welfare
of the city.

THE STATE STEALING PARTY.

Utah as Republican state. Can more
of tyranny, perversion of power and disre-
gard of popular sovereignty than that be
embodied in the same number of words?
And yet is not such thing strictly in
line with the settled programme of the
dominant party, and is it not in full accord
ance with its historya Let us see.
When the war closed there were num-
Der of states which had lately been engaged
in rebellion, so called, and these were at
the mercy of this same Republican party.
which had a four-fifths majority in
both branches of Congress. The
patriot citizen would have said,
if uninfluenced by partisan appeals,
that since the war was prosecuted for the
sole purpose Of bringing the sserring sis
tiers" back, the only thing to be done was
TO simply declare that they had never been
out; but this Republican party, this aggre
cation of all the morality, education and
progressive sen timent of the country, was
not disposed to SO treat the question.
There was host of ignorant, unskilled
and senli-barbarious aliens in the south.
and this party of education and progress all
at once grasped the idea of making these
people voters, while at the same time the
property owners, the men of intelligence
and those who were born and
reared on the soil, were to be
and they were distranchised. In addition
to this enormity, this great and good Re
publican party, this organization whose
soul was purity and whose purpose was
peace, ordained that only those of the
''erring sister, who adopted the negro
suffrage amendment could return TO the
union. In other words, they were disfran
chised to all intents and purposes except
those which gave promise of assistance to
the Republican party. Now, if they were
not capable of voting, and were not deserv-
ing of that inestimable boon, one would
think that such condition had a general
application; but no, it only applied where
the voters voted against the Republican
party So that, we find tins "Gcd
and morality organization, this party
of purity and piety paltering with us
in double sense and being then as it has

pediency, trickery and ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

THE COUNTRY'S POPULATION.

The guessing contest inaugurated by
The HERALD as combined source of
amusement, interest and, it may be said,
advertisement as well, has occasioned a
general inquiry and speculation regarding
the the whole subject of census and the
growth of the entire country since the last
count in 1880.
The figures at that that time reached the
enormous total of so, l55, 1888; the percentage
of increase in ten years is about 80 per
cent, and at that rate the population of the
United States in 1889 will be found to be
65,Q0O,0O0. In putting its guess at that
figure, the New York Sun says the popula-
ton is likely to be more than twice that of
the union at the outbreak of the civil
war. Of this total about Sc, 100000 will be
whites and more than S,S50,000 blacks, if
each Of the races has maintain ed its ratio
OF increase as computed in the last census,
or 1920 per cent. for the whites and a. 81
for the blacks. But we doubt that the
negroes are increasing so much faster pro
portionateiy- If they are, and if they GO
on at that rate, they will form one third
of the population by the middle of the next
century.
The coming census will probably show
that the population of the different divi-
sions OF the union is about this;
/ New England States = Maine, New
Hampshire, Vermont, Massachusetts,
Rhode Island and Connecticut. Population,
1880, 4,010, 529; in 1890, 4, 100000.
Middle States-New York, New Jersey.
Pennsylvania, Delaware, Maryland, West
Virginia. Population, 1850, 1876, $50; in
1890, Il, 100000
Western States California, Colorado,

Southern States-Alabama, Arkansas,
Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, Louisiana,
Mississippi, Missouri, North Carolina,
South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Vir-
ginia. Population, 1850, 16, S37, 3l6; in 1890,
22,000,0OO.
The west and south. according to these
estimates, are close together in population,
the first having $4,000 and the second
%, 100000; and the ratio of increase since
1880 is nearly the same in each case. New
England has gained only about one eighth,
the middle states little more than one
fifth, the western states more than two
fifths and the southern states about one
third. In 1850 there were in the southern
states 6,l13,054 negroes, and if their num-
Der has increased at the ratio of the last
decade it is now S,2S2, 449, or nearly two
fifths of the whole. Together the south
and west have population greater than
that of New England and the middle states
by 26,0OO,00O and equal to more than two,
thirds, or to 20 per cent, of the whole pop
ulation of the union.
The great gain in Representatives in
Congress and in electoral votes for Presi-
dent will be at the west and south.

HARMONY WORKS WONDERS.

his return being asked how it was that the
city was SO prosperous and progressive,
said: ''They do wonderful things by coop

help build up instead of tearing down.
Men with common purpose TO build city
can do it. They have their confidence in
what they undertake, and will put great
enterprises through with rush. Snob-
berry and laziness are at discount.
Men are valued for what they
can originate and accomplish rather
than for their awords or money"
In this is exposed the better part of
Denver's secret of success. The people
have pulled together. They have worked
for the upbuilding of their CITY, Whatever
gave promise of helping Denver received
the support, not of a faction but of all the
inhabitants; whatever threatened harm
was unitedly opposed. However bitterly
the newspapers might fight each other
over politics they were harmonious in
their support of everything that would
benefit the city. Capital was invited and
its protection was guaranteed. IL it were
thought that mill or factory would prove
permanently advantageous, the means for
its establishment were provided Men
did not hang back waiting for others
TO do what had to be done.

estate sales and create general confidence
just now than any single step the MUM
cipal corporation could take. 1t is just
three months since Salt Lake county paid
into the city treasury SAL ,250 as its half of
the costs of the site, and everybody sup
posed then that there was no further OBJ
stacle in the way of pushing the work, es
pecially as both the county and city treas
uries were and are in the best of condition
foc carrying it on. Il was given out the
last time THE HERALD agitated this matter
that a committee was investigating the
plans of the building to see whether
the building could be put up for s., the
estimate named by the architect. 1t is be-
ing freely whispered about town that this
committee in its sittings is given to consid-
ering number of other matters, such as
whether the county will not go Liberal in
August; whether, that being the case, the
excavation cannot be allowed to rest till
then; whether it cannot then be filled up
again, and whether the city and county
building cannot then be moved a little
nearer to that portion of the west side, sit
uate somewhat more contiguous to the pos
sessions of that federal official, journalist,
butcher and capitalist combine which has
been so active in opposing the location of
the government building in the Woman's
Industrial home. THE HERALD is free to
say that it doesn't believe these whispers
ii present; but doesn't it strike Mayor
SCOTT and the committee that enough time
has been taken to settle the problem of the
cost of the building, and that the song of
the ckisel and trowel should have been
echoins from that corner ere this? 1t
strikes the remainder of the public that
way very foroibly.

TWO CITIES.

Last Monday evening Superintendent
MtgRAg, of the New York police, called all
his captains before him and read them an
earnest and interesting lecture. He told
them OF the charges that were made against
tha department; that bribery was alleged
that the officers were accused of knowing of
violations of the law and OF accepting money
from the guilty to make no arrests. He
then said taat he proposed to secure evil
dence of the existence of gambling. pool
Selling and violations of the excise law.
ana then proposed to make it very warm
for the offenders and very cold for the cap
tains in whose precincts the crime was dis
covered. He charged the captains to assist
him in the work both for their own good
and the good Of the community. 1t is not
stated how the lecture was received. but if
there are incompetent and corrupt men
among the officers it is to be presumed that
they listened n fear and trembling, and
retired wondering what would be the
better course to pursue. Results of some
character may be expected from the meet
ing.
Marshal YOUNG, of this city, has no cap
tains TO lecture and threaten, but he has
patrolmen to whom he can say that fail
ure TO stop Sunday liquor selling, to drive
gambling out of sight and to make prosti-
tuition so into out of-the-way places where
it viii not be offensive to the public, will
cost them their positions. There were
drunken men cd the streets last Sunday,
and unless saloon-keepers shall be more
cautious than they have been lately, the
fellow who wants a drink to-day will ex-
perience little more difficulty in getting it
than he had yesterday or viii have to-
morrow. The Sunday saloon must go from
Salt Lake or an indignant community will
make it cooler for the marshaPs office than
