of duty. The result of this will
be that American mills instead of American
farms win supply South Americans with
manufactured goods. What the manufac-
turers will gain, the farmers will lose. AS
a whole, this country will gain nothing by
this shrewd bit of reciprocity.
The amount of cotton. beef, corn, wheat,
etc., that we raise in year, is more than
we can eat or wear. What shall be done
with this surplus! 1t amounted last year
to $3.50, 100000. 1t must be sold abroad for
manufactured goods. These manufactures
can not easily be imported into this coun-
try because of the tariff of so per cent.
levied ON them at our ports. 1t is better
for our merchants to resell them to other
people for goods that can be imported with
out paying to the government half their
cost at the custom house. Now, the reel
procity amendment to the tariff bill will
prevent this Indirect exchange of farm pro-
ducts for South American goods. The
tariff prevents the farmer from importing
the manufactured goods-the pay for his
grain. Reciprocity will prevent him from
selling the pay for his grain to South
America, and will give the South Ameri.
can market to the mill owners.
The real effect of the reciprocity amend
ment, whatever its intention, will be to de
prive American farmers of the benefits of
commerce with South America, and give
those benefits to the mill -owners.

EVEN THE Washington Star, which of
late years has beea unable to find words
mean enough 10 express its hatred of the
Mormons, is able to treat the Saints with a
degree of respect in the position that they
have taken concerning polygamy. The
Star closes its editorial comment on the re-
Gently issued manifesto as follows:
And the church has now formally declared to
its followers that their religion does not de-
mand resistance to the law. With very I'M
promising raw material to operate upon and a
desert TO cultivate, Mormondom has developed
into prosperous commonwealth. With the
eradication of polygamy this people will be in
position 10 claim and receive respect and credit
for the industry and thrift which in spite of
natural obstacles have brought material pros
perity, and caused the desert to blossom.

EX-SECRETARY BELKNAP.

And so poor General BELKNAp has taken
his farewell of earth and it's joys and sor-
rows and gone to his final account. A dis
patch says he was found dead in his room
at Washington on Monday morning. w.
w. BELKNAP was an able man and a bril-
liant one, but he came to the front at the
wrong period in his life, at time when
official corruption was in the air and was so
overpowering in its influence that it tool,
stronger men than he to resist it. He was
not dishonest, but was unfortunately weak
and did not draw the line between strict
integrity and official loseness as closely
as he should have done, and the
result was the awful disaster which
befell him few years ago and cast such
gloomy shadow over the later year of what
promised to be prominent and honorable
career. We have always thought that
BELKNAP was more to be pitied than con-
demned, and that the atmosphere with
which he was surrounded rather than an

TICKET.
For Delegate to Congress,
JOHN T. GAME.
MR.. GoODwIN'S PLATFORM.

We charged Mr.. GOODWIN, the Liberal
candidate for Delegate TO Congress, with
saying two years ago that
Laws to withhsld citizen papers and to pre-
vent Mormons from hereafter attaining title to
land, ought to be passed so soon as Congress
meets.
And we further charged the Liberal can
didate with suggesting the contscation of
the property of individual and unoffending
Mormons, in these words:
Suppose like Pharaoh they still further
harden their hearts until another plague shall
be sent. Suppose the governor 50 should
begin suits against the Saints who
own land to have their patents set aside, and
their lands forfeited because in no real sense
were they citizens.
That there may be no possible mistake
about where Mr.. GOODWIN stands, we here
copy his announcement of his present po-
sitlon in regard to the foregoing statements
he made two years ago:
TIE HERALD yesterday fled its indictment
against the editor of this paper. The burden of
it was: First, that he would if he could dis
franchise all the Mormons. That is a true
count That in our judgment would be the right
thing. It says: He advocated the disfranchise
ment OF those members OF the Mormon church
who had broken no law in the past: who had
taken an oath that they would not violate the
law in the future. nor aid, abet or advise anyone
else to violate the law That is all true, and
the reason we gave is as good to-day as it was
then.-zTi6azae, oct. IL, 1890.
Here is the reason:
While he Ia good Mormon believes the
president of the church in political affairs is
king and has right to iuie his conscience and
his vote, he is not TT to vote in a republic not
fit to help administer the laws.
Very good, if applied to all people, but
not if applied to only one class. But the
guilt of those accused of permitting some
one else to rule their conscience must first
be established. Mr.. GooDwIN's statement
does not prove this. 1t begs the whole
question. What Mr. GOODWIN wants is to
have all the Mormons disfranchised
for this awful crime of letting some
one else rule their conscience, the proof
of the crime being that the editor of the
meanest paper in America says they are
guilty. Moreover, the man who asks that
his statement be received in the place Of
proof, is the candidate Of the party opposed
to the Peoples party, which is composed
largely of the men he asks to be disfran-
chised.
The young men of Utah will observe
that the man who has for years abused
their parents, because a few of their
parents friends practiced polygamy, now
asks them to elect HIM 10 Office and he will
labor to disfranchise them because they
are the sons of Mormons.

AS OUR readers are aware, the constitu
ton framed by the convention which met
at Santa Fe last year has been defeated by
the voters of New Mexico. This rejection
does not mean that the people are opposed
to statehood. On the contrary, they are
almost unanimous in their desire for o
state government; but they don't want 1t
under the constitution which was framed
by the Republican ring which has so long
ruled and misgoverned the territory. A
noteworthy circumstance DIN connection
with the election last week was the part
which the Catholic priests took in the con-
test. 1t is said that almost without excep-
ton the priests advised the members OF the
church to vote against the constitution,
and gave this advice openly in the churches.
If Mormon bishops had done such thing,
Congress would certainly have been ap-
pealed to in the premises.

Tony, Levan, Juab Co.. Utah.
1t will do the Liberal party no good to
fetch voters from Juab to Salt Lake for the
November election; that is to say, it will
do no good unless the colonizers can vote
at home before they come to the city. Mr..
WITBEcK will therefore have less to do this
campaign, and Chairman Powers will not
have to skirmish for "iobs'' for voters sent

THE MCKINLEY FRAUD ON THE FARMER.

Mr. BLAINE said the purpose of recipro-
city with South America is to open mar
ket for wheat and pork from this country
These countries, including Mexico, Central
America and Cuba, consume only $40, 600, 900
worth of our agricultural products in a
year. Nor do they buy much in the shape
of farm products from other countries. The
regions south OF US do not buy many farm
products for their own consumption, as
they raise them at home.
In the past, however, they have bought
large amounts of rfarm products, which
they re- sold in Europe for manufactures.
The South Americans sold US rubber,
coffee, sugar and quinine. For these our
merchants gave checks; with these checks
our southern neighbors bought manufac-
lures in Europe; and with these checks
again the European merchants bought our
agricultural products.
IL has been the American farms in the
past that furnished manufactures for South
America, through exchange with Europe.
American farmers can raise grain and
stock, and buy manufactured goods in Eu-
rope. These manufactures they sell to
South Americans cheaper than our manu-
facturers can or will sell. The American
farms are thus competing with American
mills in selling manufactures to South
America.
Naturally, the mill owners object to this
competition and seek to get rid of it. Hav-
ing secured the able services of Mr. BLAINE
they induce our government to lay still
heavier tax on the goods our farmers i'm
port, and endeavor to get the countries
south of US to discriminate against the
American farmer in the same way by tax

THAT TRULY good elder editor of the New
York Mail and Express Colonel SHEPARD,
fairly raves with JOY over the Liberal
nominee for Delegate to Congress from
Utah. He calls the nominee an liable and
conscientious editor" and says that
during the last twenty years he has been
the pluckiest and brainiest foe of the in
EQUITIES, crimes and traitorous acts and
words of the Mormon hierarchy" All this
viii be read with interest out this way, as
will also the statement that the nominee,
Eat the risk of his life and property, he has
kept up constant and conscientious war
fare against Mormonism.. This is very
amusing. Just how much good Brother
SHEPARD knows of the object of his sen Sc
less praise is Illustrated by the fact that he
refers to him as George whereas there
isn't man in America who knows the
nominee personally or by reputation who
knows him otherwise than as Charley"

Inherently bad disposition, was RESPONSE
BILE for his fall; in other words, that the
times caused him to do things which were
wrong without knowing they were wrong.
Since the impeachment proceedings,
which were so long ago that they
scarcely seem of this generation,
SO fast do we live, the public has
known comparatively little Of General
BELKNAP. He seemingly went into retire
ment with the view to inducing forgetful-
ness of the past and never attempted to
crowd to the front, though possessing the
ability and genius and qualifications which
would have made him prominent and given
him leadership. He quietly built up a
big and highly renumerative law business,
and in the courts and in society was
esteemed as a learned and successful
lawyer and genial gentleman.

MUCH IS being said about the reluctance

that the young men are not altogether to
