THE PEOPLES CONVENTION.

THE HERALD has no fear that the Peo-
pies convention today will not do good
work. Excellent men, all representative
Of the best interests of the city and county,
have been selected as delegates, and they
may be relied upon to discharge the i'm
portant d1ty with which they have been
entrusted faithfully, with wisdom and
Judgment. 1t may be said in advance that
in making nominations they will not take
into account the ability of man to beat a
drum they will not ask how loudly a per
son has shouted in previous campaigns,
nor will they weigh the vehemence with
which he has denounced the opposition
we may feel assured that the
qualifications of the individual for the office
will govern the delegates in their votes for
choice. The enthusiasm of the man III the
Peoples cause viii not figure, the person
lacking in those things esteemed essential
in the official In fact, fitness for tie
duties, responsibility and trustwortiin ess,
instead Of party work will be the standard
by which the nominations will be made,
and the result will be ticket that the
members OF the Peoples party and ali good
citizens can heartily support
The HERALD also expects the convention
will be conducted on the lines of decency
and responsibility. When company OF
men resolve themselves into bowling mob
and noise is made to take the place of req
son, the results of their SO called delibcra
tions are not apt TO be pronounced good
Within the past few months we have seen
striking Illustrations of this fact

REGISTRARS AS CANDIDATES.

Three men who have been registrars are
on the Liberal ticket for the August cleo
ton. Colonel PAGE was registrar and did
good work for the Liberals by his partisan
rulings. G. E. ALLEN and WILLIAM LYNCH
were registrars for the coming election and
thus in sense have their own election in
| their own hands. All they need do as reg
istrars will be to count up on the evening
| before election the total number of Libe.al
| voters, the total number of doubtful voters
and the total number of Peoples party vo-
tiers on the lists and then strike off enough
Peoples party or doubtful voters to
insure safe Liberal majority
The registrars have done this be-
fore, and may do it again, especially
when their owD success depend simply
upon drawing pen through each of few
hundred names. The registrars, it is
claimed by the LIBERIA! party, are not re
sponsible for their actions in this respect
and the Utah commission seems to hold the
same view.
We say that the placing of registrars
upon the ticket is menace to the voters Of
the city, and bride to the registrars. II
is an insult to the whole body of electors
who are to cast their ballots at the APP
preaching election. 1t is a bid for corrup-
ltion, banter for the commission of fraud
1t disgraces the party that stoops to suct
an act, and in lesser degree it disgraces
the men who vote the ticket. 1t has every
ingredient of dishonesty, and assumes thai
the party at large is enslaved to the ring
and bound to support the ticket. Indepen
dent Liberals may well reflect upon it.

THE FEDERAL BUILDING.

Some weeks ago The HERALD remarked
that the Gig was up'' with the Salt Lake
federal building bill, so far as related to
the present session of Congress. Our Wash
ington correspondent now wires that the
probabilities are decidedly against the pas
sage of the bill at the next session, which
will be the short and closing one of this
Congress. We may add that there is little
likelihood that the Fifty-second Congress,
which will convene in December, 1891, Will
doanything in the matter; not because the
Congressman to be chosen this fall will be
opposed to doing something, but
they will have noIhing to do
with, The Fifty-first Congress has
squandered the enormous surplus which
was accumulated under the wise and eco
nomic administration of the Democrats,
and will leave deficit aggregating more
than hundred million dollars. This i'm
mense hole in the treasury will have to be
filled up and another fund created before
anything can be appropriated for govern
ment building in far off Salt Lake. All this
cannot be done in couple Of years, even
by the wisest Democrats. We will have to
wait; it may be three or four years before
our claim can be presented with any degree
of hope that it will receive recognition.
After the turn that affairs took last
winter, THE HERALD is not sorry
that the project has fallen through.
At one time the bill was in
excellent shape and might have gone
through swimmingly; but local real estate
;,,5a inf +ha To- ~
spectators appeared on the scene and tool
a hand in the business, and we are not GER
tain that party politics was not injected
into the affair. At any rate an unnecessary
and wholly uuwarraIted controversy was
bred and stimulated, and the result was the
cutting down by the House committee o.
the half million dollar appropriation Il
S250,000 Those familiar with Salt Lake
and who are capable of judging as to it!
future, were Disguised with tn,
slaughter. The HERALD is free Il
confess that it would rather have no govern
ment building than sach a structure
as the House committee proposed to erect
hence we are pleased that the bill has littl
prospect Of getting through.
The city can better afford to wait few
years than accept less than is needed, 70
what we get first must satisfy for at leas
twenty-five years, as our turn will certain
ly not come again within quarter of
century.
The bill has gone by the board, and il
our opinion it will be idle to make anothe
effort in this direction this side of tn
Fifty-third Congress. The present and tn
succeeding Congresses will not have tn
money to vote for the purpose, even if the.
shall be well disposed towards the city
And in this connection let US express tn
hope that the next time an effort shall b
put forth there will be some system an
less greed, speculation and politics il

THE TRIBuNE's TARIFF AGONY.

The Tribune labors to ans wer the Stats
tics of the tariff question, by saying, 'sTHE
HERALD is mistaken about the cost OF
making steal rails having been lowered by
improved machinery and still attributes
the decline in price chiefly to the stimu-
dating effects of the tariff. 1t also remarks
that England has her coal and iron close
together, and her labor is just about fifty
per cent, Of what our labor is. Itmakes il
possible for her to produce steel rails a
little cheaper than our manufacturers
can" therefore a tariff is necessary, etc.
The answer that the Tribune VIII find
most acceptable, we have no doubt to its
inaccurate statement that the cost of labor
than If this country, is thus tersely stated
by Secretary BLAINE: Undoubtedly, u
said he, in his celebrated report on textile
manufactures, "the difference in the cost
of labor here and abroad, is more than
equalized by the greater effectiveness cd
American labor
But the argument, that the price of stee
rails has fallen over the whole globe, be
cause the United States began to make
nation, is idiotic. Suppose tailor in this
city set out TO reduce the price of clothing
by charging more for suit than any other
tailor charged. Would the fact that this
extra tailor had stepped in to make cloth
ing at a higher price than the others cause
the others to lower their prices! Such q
result is impossible; it is unthinkable. Yet
the Tribune maintains that because the
United States handicapped, as it-claims, by
the high price of labor and the wide separ
alton Of the coal and iron beds, stepped in
and produced iron at greater cost, the
prices fell over the whole globe Is it pos
sible to conceive of an argument more idi-
otic2 Producing an article at greater cost
might possibly influence the tides or eclipse
the moon, but could never lower the price
Of the article. The HERALD showed that
the price abroad fell faster than here, and
claimed that this result was due to inven

ton and the introduction of machinery
The Tribune admits the foreign decline,
but says it was caused by the United
States, which produces at a disadvantag e
and at higher price than any other nation.
There can be no particular answer to such
hypothesis; it is lnconceivable. AS the
Tribune attempts to establish this mon
strous paradox by reasoning only, we pre-
sent no further statistics here, and shall
proceed to the next point
The Tribune says: again, agricultural i'm
pliments are cheaper. considering their effect
iveness in this country, than they are in the old
country" How grotesquely false that state
ment is will appear from the following: The
Ann Arbor Agricultural company adyertises in
the export edition of the Engineering and Min
Jag journal, 10 sell agricultural implements to
foreigners as follows:

THE CANDIDATES on the Liberal ticket
were weary and heart sick when they read
that gush over them in their organ the
other morning. They, one and all, recalled
how the same language had been employed
in giving the municipal nominees certiti-
Gates of character last winter, and within
six weeks after the election the same pen
which had sung the sickening praises was
writing the men down as 'boodlers" and
"corruptionisss." The present nominees
know what is in store for them.

ments of protected firms, viz: that they sell
the same article cheaper to foreigners than to
Americans.
To this the Tribune replies that 1.-THE
HERALD will understand that when manu-
facturers can advertise c eItain plow in
America for 50 if sold to foreigners and SIS
If sold to Americans, it means the same
price to both, just exactly the same price"
No, The HERALD will not understand
that these prices are the same. They are
not the same. The foreigner can get his
plow free on board at New York for just
half what the American can buy his pillow
at the factory for, after which the Ameri-
can farmer must pay his overland freight,
which is greater than that over T. water.
But the Tribune explains that the dis
count to home buyers is greater than to
foreigners, viz. that the home buyer can
get so per cent. discount ani that the for
eigner cannot. This statement is worse
than blunder; it is crime, an absolute
and unqualified untrutn. The advertise
ment we quoted above gives the retail price
in each country, with the discounts to the
trade plainly stated for each. The adver-
tisements are exactly alike, excepting that
the price to foreigners is less than
to Americans. The Ann Arbor
Implement company advertises that it will
put one-of the standard mowers on board
ship in New York harbor, for export
only" at $40 The lowest price at which
that mower can be bought by dealer in
Ann Arbor is s45, and the lowest price at
which the American farmer can buy it is
$50, while the foreign farmer gets it for
$40
When our contemporary stated that the
tariff falls chiefly on the goods the rich i'm
port, we quoted the tariff schedule to show
that the tax is higher on the cheaper than
on the dearer grades of cloth: higher on
blankets, which the poor use, than on silks,
etc. The the Tribune says The HERALD
''picks out few articles we never import
to show the fact" Wrong again, old lmbe-
Gle. We quoted articles that are i'm
ported in large quantities; as, dress goods,
cheaper grades, on which the duty is 81
per cent, and dress goods, better grades,
on which the duty is 20 per cent. The
amount of duty actually collected on the
1 former, the cheaper grades" last year
was over six million dollars; and on the
latter, the "better grades,n over two mil
lions. But our neighbor says: "That does
not alter the fact, as we stated it, that ar
American can get the ordinary wooden
goods of American make as cheap OF
cheaper than he can in England" Let
any man that ever bought suit of clothes
in England and also in this country con-
slider that FACT Like most other state
ments OF our neighbor, IL is not fact
Can it be that it is not possible for the
Tribune to speak a single truth concerning
the tariff. 1t seems so.
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1890-07-26

AND THEY do say that the Liberals are
somewhat short on money for the present
campaign. The generous contributions to
the fund last winter didn't bear fruit that
was satisfactory to the men who gave most
freely, and they are exemplifying the old
saying, "Once caught, twice shy"
