This shows what ails the farmers.
With only a home demand represented
by 65,00O,0OO people the farmers are
raising beef enough for 1000 900, pork
for 76. 900, 600, wheat for 10000, 900, corn
for &C, ,000,0 600, and oats for 100, ZOO, 900.
When country has more food than it
can consume no tariff can increase the
price of Its surplus. In Kansas and Ne
braska, where the farmers burn corn for
fuel, they would not be helped by tar
lift on corn from Illinois, Indiana, and
Ohio. Having more than enough to
meet home wants they cannot fear
competition from the outside in their
own markets, but must meet it when
selling their surplus abroad.
In this state of affairs the only feasi-
BILE thing for the farmer is to reduce his
cost of living and buy his goods cheap
er, and that is just the question which
is now agitating the farmers alliances
which are multiplying rapidly all over
the West. These organizations seek, by
buying on the wholesale plan and the
.use of other cooperative methods, to
cheaper the cost Of goods and wares to
themselves. They are striving to &C.
cure the same kind of benefits which
would result In greater degree from ju-
dicious tariff reduction, and they are
looking forward to this Congress to
lower the high duties on the necessaries
of all kinds and not to raise them, az
Mex Kinley & Co. are trying to do. Per-
ceiving that It is not in the power Oi
Congress to legislate up prices of farm
products produced In surplus, they
want the cost of the goods they have tc
buy, which are made artificialiy too
high by act of Congress, reduced to q
reasonable price by Congress. They
know it is In the power Of their Repre-.
sentatives to do this, and they intend
to hold them to q serious reckoning il
they withhold that relief. Who can
blame them?
The Mckinley bill seeks to check
mate these desires of the farmer fol
cheaper goods, since it advances the
cost of many Of the necessaries of life
which farmers must buy and offer
them In return higher duties on theil
surplus products duties which mus
prove deceptive and wholly imperative
The farmers ask for bread or fish ant
are offered stone or q serpent. They
will use both in their wrath next fall OF
their deceivers.

Representative, secretary of the treasury
or Senator. AT the end of his present term
he will be seventy years of age. old enough,
it would seem, to stand aside and give
himself and the country rest, and younger
men chance
And yet, we apprehend that Senator
SHERMAN let's go reluctantly, and because
he reads in the political situation the I'M
possibility of holding on. Ohio last year,
reversed the rule which has so long pre-
vailed, and wheeled into the Democratic,
column, giving that party the governor and
a majority of the legislature Hav-
ing gained control os the state
the Democrats are not likely to sur
render their hold, they will retain
what they have won. Sen ltor SHERMAN is
aware of this, and knows that he will be
succeeded by Democrat, hence the deci-
sion he has come to to retire from public
lie and pass the remainder of his days as
IL private citizen
President HARRISON will doubtless make
similar announcement regarding himself
when he is satisfied, as SHERMAN is, that
he cannot longer hope to retain Office.

THE FATE or A GRUMBLER.

The experience of Kansas City in the
matter OF the census should be warning
TO other discontented towns. Kansas City
claimed over q 0 600 population, and when
the enunnerators could scare up only 1856 900
people, every body was furious Just as
everybody is furious in all the boom bures
which have been Dragging of ridiculously
large population. The press and boomers
OF Kansas City made such row that the
census authorities granted recount and
the result, after a thorough search of the
city, is a failure to discover $4,000 people,
the number that the original enumera, ors
found. The special agent who superin-
tended the recount endeavors to cheer
up and encourage the disappointed COM
munity by telling it that "despite
the fact that your have been caught short
on population, there is no cause to kick.
Tor the increase In ten years is something
wonderful; l45 per cent. is great in
crease" tits wonderful increase and
should satisfy.
we are convinced that the more the cen
sus IS invested the more fully it will be
demonstrated that the count was as nearly
faithful and correct as census counts usu-
ally are. 1t has been proven that there
was some padding and stuffiug of the lists.
and 1t is more likely that this practice was
INDUCED in than that there was fail
ure to enumerate, the pay of the enumera
tors being based on the number of names
recorded The fate of Kansas City may
come upon other cities which insist that
they have been neglected and obtain re-
count,

w. w. CoRLETT.

The HERALD is among the many who will
mourn the sudden and unexpected death of
Hon W. w. CoRLETT, the announcement of
which appeared in this paper on Wednes-
DAY morning. He was an able LAWYER. q
brilliant talker and gentleman who made
friends wherever he went, who loved his
friends and was fair to his opponents. He
was just such a man as Wyoming cannot
afford to lose at this time, for the new state
has few enough like him, with the ability
to guide the young commonwealth during
the transition and trying period. If ever
Wyoming required brains and wisdom it is
now when she is entering Upon a career
which promises much of good or i'll to hoy
people. Mr.. CoRLETT was among that
big army of Republicans who could
not, with self respect, support BLAINE for
the presidency. When the man from Maine
forced The party to make him its standard :
bearer, ConLETr gracefully retired from
the political organization with which no
lad 50 long trained, ard gradually an,
naturally drifted into the ranks of the De-
mOcracy, where he was recognized az a
powerful leader. We know that he was
preparing to take an active part ia the
campaign, and it was generally understood
that he would be the part, nominee for
governor.
There will be deep and sincere sympathy
Tor his widow and orphan son.

THE SELECTMAN,

1t is bad politics and bad policy that the
Liberals have been guilty of in their non-
nation for seiectman. We know nothing
regarding the nominee, nor does anybody
else seem to know anything concerning
MN, hence with our present information
we cannot deny that he is the greatest states
man and purest man in the party. He is,
however, a resident of Cottonwood, or one of
the settlements south of the city, and that
TACT should have been bar to his nomina-
ton If the Liberals hope to elect.
Within the limits of the municipal cor
poration will be found perhaps three
fourths of the property value in the
county, and the city pays probably three
fourths OF the county taxes. We are not
complaining of this, and would not com
plain If the city had nine tenths of the
property and paid proportionate amount
OF the taxes; but the property and
tax payers of Salt Lake city have the right
to protest against being deprived of all
voice in the direction OF the expenditure of
their money. 1t has been the rule to elect
one OF the three selectmen comprising the
county court from the county, and two
from the city, and this was deemed equit-
able and just in view of the interests of the
respective sections. Last year there was
change, the county asking two,
and their request was granted. Now the
retiring member of the board is the only
citizen OF Salt Lake in the court. The
election of the Liberal candidate would
deprive the city of all representation in
the court all three of the selectmen coming
from comparatively small district eight
or ten miles south of town. We submit
that this would be manifestly wrong, and
would call forth an earnest and vigorous
protest which would continue until the
next election and city man could be
elected. The voters of the city should take
this matter into account on election day
and see to it that the expenditure of their
taxes and the making of public improve
ments are net left entirely to gentlemen
from the outside, who will naturally favor
their own sections as against the city.

PIONEER DAY.

The HERALD is pleased to note that Pho
neer day has not been forgotten or neg
lected in many of the cities and towns of
the territory, just as we are sorry that it
has been neglected, if not ..forgotten, in this
city. We are glad that the anniversary is
being properly celebrated in the north and
III the south, and hope all the participants
| IN these celebrations will enter heartily
into the spirit of the occasion.
VI all our anniversaries there is but one
Independence day-that should rank the
24th of July, for this latter is the anniver-
sary of the founding of the grandest
and best commonwealth in all the
vast interior west of the opening of the
door through which hundreds of thousands
have entered to pleasures and prosperity :,
OF the beginning of community that has
been marvel, exciting the wonder of the
world, and of the settlement of territory
which made possible the settlement and
development of region round about one
thousand miles in extent.
1t is not for US ON day like this to dis
cuss the motives which led that grand
leader of men, BRIGHAM YOU'VE, and his
handful OF followers, to cross the trackless
plains and mighty mountains, and plant
the little colony in these valleys We have
only to deal with achievements, and
these are such that the surprise is
that whenever July "a comes around all
the people claiming Utah for home do not
turn themselves over to rejoicing and to
doing honor to the heroes of 1S47, who will
rank much higher in history than they
have done in life. Time will repay the debt
OF gratitude which not many men of this
age are willing to acknowledge Time will
soften unreasonable hates and overcome
senseless prejudices which prevent men
from recognizing merit and according pro
per credit to heroes and heroism. In time
Pioneer DAY will be second only to hide
pendence day in the distinction which it
will receive from one end of this fair ter
ritory to the other.
