DIDN'T KNOCK HIM OUT.
Two Delegates Have Row in the f OF
toa House.

Delegate Frank A. Weithoff. Is 4 dis
penser of liquor, an all-round sport,
ex-cigar manufacturer, and ward
politician of Detroit. Delegate Preston
is hotel keeper of Mackiraw, and also
bears the proud distinction of telng a
Democratic politician.
These are the dramatis personae in a
little scene, IN one act, which occurred
in the rotunda OF the Morton House
last night.
Weithof was one of Marvin's sup
porters IN the convention yesterday,
and Preston howled loudly for Braastad,
the Northern Peninsula man. Welt
hoifs favorlte was Knocked ont and
the result was that he paTonized the
Morton House bar with great frequency.
Later on he and Preston met and the
show began.
"You fellows think you are smart up
there, but you can bank on IL that since
Marvin has been defeated there won't
be man elected on the Democratic
ticket. I've poured money into DEM
ocrstic politics, but l've got through"
said WeithOff.
"Yes. and you have had a string on
every dollar you put IN and you have
pulled two back" snarled Preston.
The words were no sooner out Of his
mouth than Weithoff made Il rush for
Preston but the crowd lnteriered and
moi injury was done.

Texas Fever Outbreak.
LANSING, Mich, Sept. l0.-The cattle
men at the State Fair experience no

the Detroit Exposition grounds. The
following Michigan men brought their
herds here direct from the exposition:
Southern Stckney, Merrill Fheld,

J. Whlttemore, of OHIO.
Hon. III. II. Kinds, president Of the
State live stock sanitary commission,
says there need be no alarm here, for
the reason that northern cattle do not
commuelcate the disease to other
northern cattle. That It can come only
10y being in contact with the Texans or
from beng IN yards or cars where such
affected Texans have been. He gives Il
as his opinion. which was cOncuTrcd in
by all the cattle men within hearing
that the exposition cattle contrrcted the
disease before coming TO the state, as
the tests that have been made demon
strated that the period OF incubation Of
the germs of the disease Is not less than
three weeks and that the affected herd
has been IN either yards or cars that
have recently contained Texans.

AS EVERYBODY expected would be the
case the House committee on coinage
weights and measures has voted to recon-
mend non-concurrence in the Senate
amendments to the silver bill. The bill,
when it returned from the Senate, was
crookedly sent to the committee because
the speaker knew that just such a report as
has been agreed upon would be made, and
the measure would then be referred to a
conference committee which could be re-
lied upon to stay apart on any proposition
that would be in the nature of justice to
silver. The vote on the committees report
is to be taken this afternoon, and as a
matter of course the recommendation will
be adopted. The question has been made a
party one in the House, and the Republi-
cans being in a majority, it is doubted that
any silver legislation will come at this ses-
sion. 1t is certain that the legislation that
is required will not be given.
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1890-06-25
THE SILVER VOTE.

An exchange has analysed the vote on
the passage of the silver bill in the Senate,
and found that of all the Democrats voting
twenty-seven were for and only three
against it, while twenty two Republican
Senators opposed the bill and fifteen
favored it Thus 80 per cent. of the Demo
Gratis who voted on the bill voted for its
passage and only 10 per cent. against 1T,
while but 40 per cent of the voting Re
publicans favored the bill and 60 per cent.
against it.
These figures are sufficient to demon
strate that the bill as passed is Demo
cratic measure, notwithstanding the as
sault upon the party made by EDMUNDs
who charged in effect, that the Democrats
were not sincere, but voted as they did
merely for the purpose Of embarrassing
the Republican party, all the time knowing
that the bill would not become law. Ed
MUNDs may or may not have been right; it
is more likely that the latter is true as the
old man manages to get wrong about three
times to going right once; but the kind of
dishonest voting that the Democratic Sena-
tors did on this occasion is the kind that
intentions, that the masses consider. If
the Democrats will keep on embarrassing
the Republican party by standing erect on
every honest proposition the country will
approve and applaud.
Placing the vote geographically, it is
found that Of the fifteen Republicans who
voted for the bill, all but one live west OF
the Mississippi river, and of the twenty
two Republicans who voted against tie
bill only four live west Of the river
named AS matter of course the
Democrats who voted for the
bill came largely from the south,
there beiEg mighty few members of the
party in the Senate from northern states.
These analyses show, first, that the Dem
ocratic party is in favor of tie restoration
of silver 10 its rightful place in our none
tary system: and, second, that the south
and west, without regard to party politics,
are for free coinage of both money metals
These two facts being demonstrated, two
otE ers are necessarily true, namely: the
Republican party is opposed TO doing
Justice to the white metal, and tie north
and east are the avowed enemies of silver
The battle hereafter, therefore, viii re be
tween the Democratic party supported by
Repu 3licans west Of the Mississippi, anG
the Republicans Of the eastern ana northern
states. 1t viii require only slight com
putation to show which side will win. This
next congressional election will give The
friends Of silver an overwhelming major
ity. and the next congressional apportion
ment Will leave The enemies TO silver il
such a hopeless minority that they win no
care to show opposition.

THE FARCE ENDS.

After all Mississippi justice does not
amount to much. Governor LOWRY, last
year, pursued the prize-fghters who had
desecrated his state by indulging in mill
On the sacred soil, and acted as if lasting
disgrace would attach to Mississippi unless
SULLIVAN and KILRAIN and those who
aided and abetted them in the fight were
severely punished. 1t must have cost the
state good many thousand dollars to hunt
down the pugilists and their friends, and
what has been the result? KILRAIN pleaded
guilty to prize-fghting and was sentenced
to two months Imprisonment at hard labor
A law of Mississippi permits citi-
zens to hire prisoners from the
counties or state, and KILRAIN was
so hired by Rich, the man on whose
farm the battle was fought and who was
one of the chief promoters of the smuggling
match. The pugilist's imprisonment"
consisted of lettering about Mr.. RIcH's
spacious grounds, riding behind Mr.. RIcH's
fine horses, eating at Mr. RIcH's generously
laden table, and sleeping in Mr.. RIcH's soft
beds. Ninety nine out Of a hundred men,
the country over, would like to be sentenced
to that kind Of pun ishment, and instead of
limiting the term of Imprisonment to two
months they would be pleased if the sent
ence were for life. 1t was all very
farcical The effect on the bruiser
could not have been to make
him respect the law to any marked extent.
He returned to his Baltimore home and
told how magaanimously he had been
treated. He said that everything possible
for his comfort had been done; the officers
and citizens had been very kind and con-
siderate, and his Imprisonment was really
an ovation from first to last. The influence
which his conviction and punishment had
upon him would naturally lead him to insist
that all future mills in which he is to be a
principal shall be fought on Mississippi
soil
SULLTvAN's turn to 'tsuffer'' for violating
Mississippi law and bringing the state into
aisrepute, has just occurred, and Governor

NOT A RoTTENBoRoUGH.

An exchange says, speaking of the ad-
mission of territories: 1--WE have enough
rottenboroughs. New Mexico should be
kept out yet few years longer" 1t is
needless to remark that the contemporary
in which this appears is Republican in poll
tics and unprincipled in everything else.
Neither it nor any other of its party's or
gans raised objections to North Dakota, the
miserable pauper which has been an object
of charity ever since the admission bill was
signed, posing before the country with hat
in hand, begging for food for her handful of
starving people. No Republican paper said
anything against taking Montana into the
union, though they all knew that she had
one third less population than New Mex
leo, which is now designated as a '.rotten-
borough" What Republican sheet has OBJ
iected to the comforting of statehood on
Idaho whose population, all told, viii
not number more than two fifths
as many as New Mexico can muster! No
organ of the g. o. p. thinks of ''rosten Dor
eugh' in connection with our northern
neighbor. If there has been Republican
protest against the admission OF Wyoming
we have not heard Of it; and yet the census
will show three people in New Mexico for
every one counted in Wyoming.
1t is not the rotten borough to which the
Republicans object in regard TO New Mex
leo; it is the politics of the majority Of the
people. The territory is Democratic, and
that fact is the barrier which has long
stood between her and statehood. If she
will change her politics and roll up Re
publican majority of satisfactory proper
tions, she can go into the union with
a whoop, and no Republican will
ever peep word about rot ten borough,
or say word indicating that the common
wealth is not fully equal TO the duties and
responsibilities of carrying on state gov
ernment.
You never see in aRepublican newspaper
a word suggestive of displeasure that Ne
vada is state, though Nevada does not
even claim as many people as there are in
Salt Lake city. So long as the sagebrush
state remains true to the party of high
taxes and robber trusts, keeps two Repub-
lican Senators and one Republican Repre-
sentative in Congress. every member OF
the party will be offended if told that the
poorest and meanest territory is better en-.
titled to statehood than Nevada.
AS a matter of fact, New Mexico is and
long has been fully prepared for carrying
on state government, possessing the
qualifications of population and wealth
She is rich in resources and many of hel
people are enterprising and progressive
while the masses compare fayorably with
the average elsewhere. 1t has been parti-
san hate that has kept the territory out OF
the union and held it in bondage these
many years. The time is coming, how
ever, when New Mexico will be accorded
her rights, and then she will not be charged
with peterborough" tendencies.
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1890-06-25

LowRY's buster and the officials energy,
earnestness and determination to uphold
the law and the honor of the commonwealth
have been rewarded by the imposition of
fine of $500 on the Hon, JOHN L. The in
dictment was for prize fighting, and the
accused pleaded guilty; if ever man was
fully and unquestionably guilty it was he !;
and if engaging in a prize-tight is deserv-
ing of severe punishment SULLIVAN should
have been so punished; but the fellow will
go away chuckling in his sleeve over his
easy escape. Many influential citizens re-
quested that he be fined instead of SEN
fenced to Imprisonment, and the court lis
tened and treated the business as if he were
person entitled to great consideration.
Hereafter the officials of Mississippi,
from governor down. should not indulge in
buster and display over the enforcement
of the law. The farce that has been en-
acted in this case is good deal more dis
graceful than would have been policy OF
non-interference.
