and govern themselves without help from
the nation. They have adopted and pre-
sented grand constitutions, which were
purely republican in their provisions, and
were guarantees that the rights of in
dlvlduals would be protected They have
even gone ia rther than this, farther than
any other American commonwealth ever
went, and proposed to bind themselves and
their children against changing the con-
stitution in certain important particulars
without the consent of Congress.
Yet their appeals were denied and the
community was scoffed at We were held
IN subsection, in slavery; were deprived of
the rights of American citizens and treated
as II we were not entitled to residence
within the boundaries of the republic.
Territory after territory has been taken
into the union, not one of those admitted
within the past thirty years having the
population or wealth which Utah possessed
at the time. Last year two new states
were created, the combined population of
which was less than two-thirds the number
of people in Utah.
What has been the result of this treat
ment! Simply this, that Utah has lost
interest in statehood and doesn't care a fig
for what would once have been regarded as
great boon. If one will take the trouble
to 90 from one end of the territory to the
other and question all the people on the
subject, he will find that the overwhelming
majority are Indifferent, while many of
the more thoughtful men are at heart op-
posed to statehood because of the increased
financial burdens it would impose The
HERALD knows whereof it speaks when it
says that the majority sentiment is in favor
OF continuing as territory so long as the
government is tolerable, and that govern
ment cannot be extremely cruel and OPP
pressive in this age and in this populous
and enlightened community. We profess
to know something Of the local public
opinion and our knowledge tells us
that it would require much labor to
inspire the people with enthusiasm in
statehood movement They are fully alive
to the fact that large proportion of the
government expenses is paid from the fed
eral treasury, and to that other fact that
state would mean the doubling of the taxes.
Some time ago they came to the conclusion
ohou uhOy d JCTrllOEldl govern
ment just as long as Congress would ap-
proprlate the money to pay the salaries of
the general officers and relieve the people
OF the necessity of taxing themselves for
the costs Of the administration. We believe
that the temper of the people is such that
they have made up their minds never again
to ask for statehood, and we also believe
that they would have to he coax ed into &C
cepting a state government.
Under the circumstances, we say, it is
idle for the Republican politicians to
scheme to make Utah Republican state,
and it would be almost as idle to offer the
territory statehood under any circumstan-
ces or conditions. The plain truth is, Utah
can stand this sort of thing just long as the
general government can endure it. We
think the general government will cry out
for change first.

An EXCHANGE remarks that the failure of
the Dueber Watch company at Canton, O.,
with liabilities which are variously esti-
mated at from $685. to S1,50O,0OO, de-
serves especial attention for two reasons
First, the little town of Canton, about one
year ago, gave bonus of 100000 in cash
and free building site, to secure COM
pany which is now bankrupt. Second, the
Dueber Watch company took a remarkably
active interest in the recent MCKINLEY
campaign, in which, it is charged, S165, 900
was distributed where it would do the
most good" The MCKINLEY campaign, not
the MCKINLEY tariff, figures largely in the
collapse of that institution. 1t is said that
this establishment employed over 1000 men
and was considered very wealthy. The
company discharged a number of it's en-
ployees because they did not vote for Nc
kINLEY.

PLANT TREES.

The great need Of this inter-mountain
country is trees-shade trees, fruit trees.
timber trees and even ornamental trees.
Many varieties will grow simply from
cuttings stuck into the ground by the side
OF a stream Of water; and the ease with
which great many desirable varieties can
be made to thrive in this country, should
leave no excuse why our permanent
streams should not be bordered with fine
trees
The appearance of our whole landscapes
transformed by the aspect of tall trees
and no other sight is more refreshing and
delightful after travelling through these
large sage brush OR crossword plains of
ours than that of clumps or lines of trees
The hot summer in our valleys is modu-
lated, the dust intercepted, and the fall of
rain increased by the planting of trees in
favorable localities. The home is rendered
beautiful in this region, by a copious
growth of trees and shrubbery around it.
A few of our native trees are worthy of
propagation, especially the native ever
greens of every variety. These beautiful
trees are difficult of successful culture
however, but perhaps not more so than the
similar eastern species.
1t is to be hoped that the business of tree
culture will be given more attention in this
region. We should have large home nur-
series, for our climate and soil frequently
DO not agree with the imported trees.
There is field here for the collection and
dissemination of facts in regard to success
full tree culture, to which the Agricultural
college viii no doubt attend. We need to
know what are the best varieties to propa-
gate AID in what way the best results are
to be attained. 1t is clear to US that this
region has to great extent agricultural
conditions Of its own, and that eastern
nurseries cannot permanently supply our
wants.

THE LEGISLATURE districts in this terri
tory are not what they should be. The ap-
portionment is inequitable and unjust, but
Governor THOMAS ought not to complain.
He is largely responsible for the districts
and his party is a gamer by the arrange
ment. A fair apportionment would give
the People two more members of the legis-
lature, and would abolish some of the shoe
string districts.

To Keep tho Base Ball Pitcher on tho
Bench During Batting.
CIHclSSAri, Dec. 16.-When Ted Sui
Ivan was here he suggested that the
pitcher BIO anchored on the bench, and
tho innovation was tho subject OF 4 re-
cent debate at Pittsburgh. In 4 con-
versation with J. Walter Spalding, OF
the New York club, President Temple
brought up the question OF what dis
position should be made Of the pitcher
in tho batting order. President Tenn
pic favored the substitution OF another
maj to take the pitchers place at the
bat when it came his turn to 30 there.
Mr.. Spalding advocated q change in the
present system, and suggested that the
pitcher be eliminated entirely from the
batting order, and that only the other
eight men OF the opposing clubs be al
lowed to 90 to bat. Both gentlemen
saw the necessity Of some change, and
Mr.. Spalding intimatcd that his idea
should prevail. Tho matter will in all
likelihood be brought to tho attention
OF tho committee on rules, and either n
substitute player take tho pitchers
place at bat or tho pitcher be relieved
Of the necessity OF going to the bat at all.
