PRICES AGAIN.

More than year ago THE HERALD was
ba1en to task for saying that the prices OF
real estate in this city were not too high,
Ind telling the owners that prices would
be a good deal higher before they were
lower. We were charged with desire to
brighten intending purchasers away. Some
said it was ridiculous to suggest that the
prevailing rates could be maintained, and
they tried to argue that interest on the
money invested could not be made from the
land. THE HERALD, it seems, looked fur
Their into the future than those could do
who criticised the paper, and said we
were doing the town an injury by
urging people to get what they asked or
hold on to their property a little longer. A
good many lots which were sold before a
year ago have since changed owners from,
Dne to three times, and every time at an
advance of from % to 100 or more per cent.
On the previous price. In many instances
land sells readily to-day for five times
what it fetched year ago, and in no in
stance, we believe, has the advance been
less than SO per cent.
Now we are told, and especially by those
designated as "tenderfeet," that prices are
Zoo high, and we occasionally read
ihat Mr.. So-and-So, who came
here with money aad intended to in
vest, went away disguised when he
learned what was being asked for real es
tate. Denver, Kansas City and Omaha, we
are told, offer better terms.
THE HERALD has so far been a very close
guesser, and it has no fear of destroying its
reputation in this respect when it tells
buyers and sellers that prices will be higher
before they fall. Indeed, we do not appre-
bend there will be any decline from present
prices as to inside property. We mean by
by this, no matter what the timid may say
to the contrary, that Salt Lake land is
worth more than is being paid for it; that
those who purchase now are reasonably
safe, their buys always commanding in the
market more than the present cost. OF
course we do not expect that the advance
will be anything like what it has been
within the past two years; that would be
unreasonable. But we do expect that here
litter prices and values will be near neigh
5ors, as they are to-day, and it must be
confessed that values are increasing all the
lime, gaining with every new building and
with the coming of every good man who
expects to make this city his home.

THE MINORITY REPORT.

Representative MANsUR, of Miss ouri,
who speaks for the Democratic members
of the House committee on territories, pre-
sents minority report against the admis
sion of Idaho as a state, and it is power
full and statesmanlike document which he
offers. A very fair synopsis of the paper
appeared as special telegram in Thurs
days issue of THE HERALD The gentle
man and his associates are not opposed to
statehood for Idaho. They are willing
that the territory shall be emancipated
and taken into the union as a sovereign
state, and may be relied upon to
vote for admission when the dependency
shall come up with a proper con-
stitution. 1t is the constitution under
which Idaho asks to be admitted that the
minority Objects to the offensive provision
being that which DISTINGUISHES on account
of membership in the Mormon church
MANsUR and colleagues are not sympathiz-
ers with Mormons nor believers in the
rightfulness of polygamy; on the contrary
Democrats generally have been as keen as
Republicans to punish for the offense named,
they have voted for all the anti-polygamy
| bills, and have never been behind their
political opponents in proceeding to ex-
IRENE lengths in the matter of punish
ment. But they do object to the
imposition of punishment where
no offense has been committed
and will not say it is right to deprive a
man of citizenship without hearing or even
charging him with crime. The purest-
minded man in Idaho, the most upright one
in his walk, and the most moral one, if he
were member of the Mormon church
would, under tn e proposed constitution, be
deprived of the right to vote or hold office.
A Democrat cannot sanction such princi-
pie, hence the opposition of MANsUR and
associates to the admission of the terri
tory named until the constitution has
been brought into harmony with the theory
of the American government.
The HERALD, while it applauds the
honesty and the courage of the
gentlemen forming the minority of
the committee on territories, places
very little faith in the success
of their opposition TO the admission bill
The Republican party IS desperate. II
realizes that the struggle of its life will
soon be here Failure to carry Congress
and the Presidency in 1892 would mean the
beginning of the end of the Republican
party. The admission of Idaho under the
proposed constitution will give the party
one Representative and two Senators and
three votes in the electoral college; the
admission of the territory with the objec
tionahle and unrepublican provision omit
! ted, would be to make it Democratic state
This condition of things decides Republic
ans without further consideration or dis
! cussion. The state must be created and i
must be certainly Republican in politics
The Democrats in Congress can entel
their protest and place themselves right il
the record, but they cannot prevent tn,
preparation of the political crime which il
contemplated in the admission of Idaht
with criminal constitution.

POLITICAL LAW.

The attorney general of New York NAV
be great lawyer, but if what he some
times lays down as law is valid, then law
common sense, reason and justice are by
no means harmonious. The Atlantic street
railroad company, Brooklyn, had difficulty
with its employees several months ago, the
latter striking and tying up the road; for
three OF four days the cars were not run,
the public being Inconvenience and the
company losing much money. It seems
under the franchise the company was re-
uuired to run its cars daily, and as it had
not done this the encouragement decides
that the franchise has been forfeited.
This is strict and literal Interpretation of
the law, it is true; and it would be the
same if the forfeiture were declared by
the failure of the cars to run from any
other cause, as the washing out of the road.
the tearing up of the tracks by mob, the
sickness of horses. Railroads contract
with the government to carry the mails on
certain schedule time, and penalties for
failure are stipulated; bridge is burned,
a train is wrecked, the road is blocked by
snow, or employees quit work, and the
contract is not fulfilled; under such cir
cumstances would it be right to hold the
railway companies to the strict letter of
the bargain, Furnishing them by the infiic-
tion Of penalties for failure to carry out
the terms of the contract! 1t would be
Just as right and just as lawful as it was to
declare the Brooklyn street railway fran
rhise forfeited because the strikers pre-
rented the running Of the cars.
The New York attorney generals deci-
sion in the case is like good many other
things done in the name of the law
political. The labor vote is to be concili-
,ted at the expense Of right and justice.

UNJUST AND INCoNsIsTENT.-In the matter
of the election of Mr.. |. NJ Fisher Tax Col.
lector, the Republican Citizen has allowed It's
personal disappointment at the result to run
away with its judgment. In the issue OF
February l4th the Citizen referring to this
matter says Against the appointment OF
Mr.. Fisher personally. we have not word
to say, as we have always found him to be u
particularly cleyer young man and we believe
good and consistent democrat" This is a
straight forward and uncquivocal endorse
ment of Mr.. Fisher, personaHy. In the issue
of tue 2lst, in an editorial on this subject,
referring to Mr.. I. M. Fisher it describes HIM
as one "who had never personally or materi.
ally aided the party in fighting or winning
its battles"
When the Citizen makes the above assertion
it places itself upon the horns of this dilem-
ma; either that it knows nothing of the
work being done by ,pdiyiduals in the inter-
est of its party, or that it has wilfully spoken
AL untruth. Aspiring as 1t does to be the
Organ of its party, it dare not allow the
former claim to stand; being engaged in the
honorable profession of journalism, the latter
must fall to the earth.
We are prepared to assert, prepared
because we rely upon the intrinsic merit oi
the assertion. that, IN adjusting the cases OF
Mr. Fisher ard one OTHER prominent aspirant
for the office he has secured, by the usual
commercial methods of DR.. and Cr., probably
five thousand Of the five thousand flye hun
dred democrats of this county will agree that
however much or little service MIR. Fisher has
rendered bis party, it is not possible that bis
| account with that party should be over
drawn that no long list of entries on the
debit side, having per contra, only items OF
imaginary value exist in his account; that
he has had nothing, while his competitor has
had, in his legitimate calling, everything, and
besides, one term in this sefsame office.
Mr.. Fisher can at least make the claim that
lie has not been overpaid; that as the Cst'ser
ret said he is "a good and consistent demo
crat": that neither he nor his friends have
taken outl foreign attachment upon thu
present. and eternally prospective emolument'
of party office; that rs the rewards for party
services are meted out, he has not come II
.ahcad of his turn; that he has seen thing
political 20 contrary to his liking and no
cried treason" "blackleg", Stigma ant
odlum", nor called upon republicans t.
condemn" the acts Of his party. Truly. hr
Fisher has been "a good and consistant dem
ocrat", and had the Citizen been content u
allow its estimate Of him remain thus,
would not have become monument NOR
laating than brass" to tho nbom'natlou o
Inconsistency.
