Warm Water for Stock,

The idea Of warming water for stock
mas sprung up within few years; and
he fact that 1t has spread 30 rapidly and
is adopted by SO many dsirymen and
stockraisers shows that they fluid some
real or imaginary benefit In IT. OF
course, there Is division Of opinion on
me subject as there Is generally on all
subjects; but there can be little doubt
that 10 cold weather 1t saves food to take
the chill of from the water, and In case
the cows are at all chilly, " warm 1t up
to 70 or 80 degrees. As rule, however,
We would not go much above go degrees.
But warm water il often wanted for other
purposes than watering stock. II Is USE
Jul In mixing feed for pigs, chickens, and
Tor other purposes, and Is therefore q
handy thing to have around. Many 10.
ventions have heen thrown on the market
with one or two contrivances not patent

EDITOR j. G. ALBRIGHT, of the Albu-
querque Democrat, will never be censured
for failure to show confidence in himself.
In the latest issue of his paper there ap-
pears a card at the head of the editorial
column, bearing the EDITORS signature
and announcing himself a candidate for
mayor at the election in April. He says;
We don't propose to let any sense of false
modesty stand in the way Of our getting there
We can read, write and cipher. We represent
the intelligence and manners of this commu-
nifty. We are the top sheaf in society, and can
borrow 500 Oh our gold mine in San Pedro any
day. In brief, we are the best candidate who
can be putup for the office, and we are doing the
public favor by consenting to run. We have
something further to say on this subject later
on. We don't want the Office, but the office
wants US. AT least we think she does. While
recently in Chicago the directors of the Worlds
Columbian exposition requested us in pursu-
ance Of their general plans to accept the Office
We are satisfied that Tom CATRoN and MARIANA
S. OTERo will instruct their political allies in
this city TO give us an enthusiastic support
Rejecting that GROVER CLEVELAND was mate
rally advanced in his political career by being
elected mayor of Buffalo, we feel that we would
not be doing justice to our present bright polit-
cal prospects if we declined to be mayor of
Albuquerque.

TO LIMIT FREE SPEECH.

On Nov. 18th last the Youths Companion
published an article written by Mr.. HoAR
on 1.-THE Senate,n In it he said that
In the Senate there can be no limit upon de-
bate except by unanimous consent. In this as
sembly speech is absolutely unfettered. Every
measure can be discussed fully without re-
straint and amended without limit. This is of
immense Importance, not only to the perfection
OF legislation but also to the dignity of the Sen
ate, and, in my opinion, to civil liberty itself.
1t will also be remembered that not very
long ago Senator EEMUNDs said he thanked
God the Senate was still deiiberative
body.
The feelings of both these men can be
better imagined than described at the pres
ent time. In their last mad effort to re-
buke the American people for daring to re-
pudiate the party of trusts and monopolies
to the extent of over 100000 majority of
votes at the recent election, these men have
introduced bill ito put limit upon de-
bate" by majority consent only and to turn
the Senate from deliberative into revolu-
tionary body. The purpose of this infamy,
OF course, is the passage of the force bill,
which takes away state control from; the
elections for Representatives.
One section of the bill which is to turn
the Senate into partisan machine and to
deny the right of free speech to the KEN
bers of the highest legislative body in the
greatest republic on earth reads as follows
When any bill or resolution or other question
shall have been under consideration for rea
sonable time, it shall be in order for any Sena-
tor to demand that debate thereon shall be
closed. Or such demand, no debate shall be in
order and, pending such demand, no other mo
ton except one motion to adjourn shall be
made. If such demand be seconded by a major
ty of the Senators present, the question shall
forthwith be taken tt ereon without debate. II
the Senate shall decide to close debate on any
bill, resolution or other question, the measure
shall take precedence of all other business
whatever, and the question shall be on all pend
ing amendments if any are then pending, and
upon the measure in its successive stages &C
cording to the rules of the Senate but without
further debate, except that every Senator who
may desire shall be permitted to speak upor
the measure, including all amendments, not
more than once and not exceeding thirty min
utes.
A great disgrace and danger threatens
this nation, when Capitalization has gone
to such length as to adopt gag rule in the
national legislature.

THE IDAHO CASE

The Democratic Senators, on Monday.
objected to the swearing in of the men who
were sent from Idaho to represent that
state in the upper house of Congress, but
the objections were without effect As THE
HERALD remarked the other morning the
Idaho case does not present a question of
law or precedent: nor will the legality of
the three elections be taken into account
by the Republican majority in the Senate
That majority will look at the case in this
way: Here are three men who present
themselves for seats in this body; it is true
the election of at least one of them is irregu-
lar and onght to be voided ;but all of them are
staunch Republicans and may be safely relied
upon TO vote with US on all partisan meas
Ures; that the time is fast coming when we
will need their votes perhaps if we were to
wait until legal election could take place
a Democrat might be sent here; therefore
we win consider party policy and expedi-
ency and not the strict letter of the law,
and in doing this will let these men in and
not question their titles to the seats, con-
tenting ourselves with the knowledge that
they are Republicans"
1t is true, only SHoUP was sworn in, for
he seemed to have been the only Senator

ALFRED H. GAME.

The death of ALFRED H. GAME, of The
HERALD, has been expected for several
days past, yet the announcement of the
passing away last evening will bring deep
est sorrow and sadness to many heart;
and these sad and sorrowful hearts will not
be confined to the family and relatives of
the deceased, but will be found every
where that Mr.. GAME was known. Not
many young men in this community have
so many friends as he, not many so many
admirers, not many stand so highly in the
esteem and love of all those with whom
they come in contact. THE HERALD, better
than others, knew Mr.. GAME, as years of
his useful life were passed in this Office,
where he endeared himself to everybody
ABOUT the establishment and where all feel
tnat they have lost a near and dear friend.
we knew him as boy and as a man, and
we never knew him to be other than one of
the truest, most faithful, upright and con-
sclentious of boys and men; always trust
worthy, always energetic, always genial,
always more thoughtful for others
than for himself, and ever doing
good out of pure goodness of heart.
When such a man is taken away
the community is the loser, and this COM
munlty will mourn this untimely death.
And while sorrowing on its own account
the public will give of its sympathy to the
widow and orphaned boy; to the afflicted
father and mother, who only few months
ago came from Washington to bury loved
son, and to the mourning sisters and broth
ers. We all feel that deep as is our own
sorrow, it cannot be SO intense as is that of
the family, and such poor consolation as
words OF coincidence spoken from the heart
can convey will go out to the bereaved.
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1890-12-30

CERTAIN OF the city police have been
bounced by order of the mayor, and it is
understood that the gentlemen of brass
buttons and blue coats are indignant and
will insist upon public investigation of
any charges which may have been pre-
ferred against them. Some pretty hard
stories are told of the police, and we doubt
that anybody has the courage to come to
the front and say the officers have done
much in the way of suppressing crime and
protecting the public; but it seems to us
only fair that when one of them is let ont
for "cause' he should at least be informed
as to the accusation against him and he
given an opportunity to defend himself.
AS we understand it the mayor dominates,
or appoints all the policemen, the chief hav-
ing no say in the selection of the men who
serve under his direction. This being
true, the mayor should have the courage
and manhood to tell an officer why the lat
ter is discharged.

must be shut up, that houses of i'll fame

a city of law and order, it will not be
necessary for the church congregations to
adopt reform resolutions, and there will be
no occasion for public assemblages to pro-
test against open violations of the ordi-
nances. Has Mayor SCOTT the manhood
and the moral courage to tell the chief of
police that the ordinances must be en-
forced! Has the mayor the courage to
offend and antazonize the ugly element in
society which contributed so much of the
money making up his campaign fund last
winter, and which made it possible for him
to get into Office!
