THE DANGERS.

That there is much in existing conditions
within the United States to create we'll
founded anxiety in the minds of men anxi-
Gus for the peace and prosperity of their
country, goes without saying. The exist
ence of immense monopolies and combined
trusts growing more and more extensive
every year until they overshadow the pros
perity of our trade, commerce and manu-
featuring interests; the presence in our
land of formidable foreign element which
has not been sufficiently absorbed to be es-
teemed Americanized; secret societies,
mostly imported from the old world, which
seek the intimidation of officers of the law :;
cowardly and corrupt juries, which may be
either bought for gold or inundated by
the threats Of assassins, teaching the
people that they must look for justice out
side of the law-the most fatal lesson a
people can be taught; an easy contempt
| for the forms of law on the
first suspicion that it cannot or
will not fulfill the functions for
which it was created, and consequent re-
sort to mobocracy or revolution as correc-
tive steps instead of constitutional pro-
ceedure-all these things are deplorable;
and that they exist and are active, danger
Gus elements in the body social and polite,
and threaten the perpetuity of our institu-
tions cannot be questioned. Almost daily
the readers of the press are reminded in
some forcible manner of the existence of
these disturbing, threatening elements.
But more serious than the recent events

istence of monopolies or trusts or secret
societies-more serious, we mean, as men

came in our dispatches of the Sth inst. of
frauds in the Chicago election. 1t is charged
that in one particular precinct the affairs

RELIGIOUS LIBERTY.
Rev. GEORGE w. BALLENGER, of Chicago

Rev. GEORGE w. BALLENGER, of Chicago
speaks as follows on religious liberty:
You can fetter the limbs, lacerate the fesh
and torture the body, but the conscience cries,
II will be free" The people of GOD love this
freedom of conscience so dearly that in the his
tory of the past they have chosen to suffer
every imaginable kind of persecution that blind
zeal and satanic hatred could inflct, millions
choosing death in the most horrible manner,
rather than recant and surrender their right to
worship GOD according to the dictates of con-
science And firmly believing that there are
many at the present time who guard the wealth
of conscience with as much sacredness and
would suffer equally as much now as did our
ancestors in the dark ages rather than hush the
voice of conscience and surrender their GOD
given rights, I am in favor of religious liberty
alike for all. 1 am decidedly opposed to the
present attempt on the part of maryland some
of them high in the church-to secure legislation
! on purely religious matters, which can not but
result in religious persecution.

ignorance of the masses Of mankind on tn,
subject of Individual liberty and human
rights. The broad principles of equa
rights are not well known and but diml,
apprehended by the majority of the Amer
ican people. The education that the stat
should dispense to It's subjects should in

Keeping away from the police, who were
simply Mormon thugs; yet it is dollars to
dimes that if single Mormon policeman
were suspected of being thug, Liberal
jury would have indicted and convicted him
as surely as he had been accused. And if
any Liberal dares say the present govern
ment affords the citizens as good protection
as the former did, he must be phenome-
non of stupidity.
The Liberal organ also assures the real
estate men that foot for foot, and lot fur
lot, real estate is worth 100 per cent. more
than when the Liberals first demonstrated
they had majority in this city," They
demonstrated this fourteen months ago, If
at all, so that either the real estate men or
the organ is guilty of whopper.
And to-day while every Liberal is aware
of more or less of the rotteness of the
gang that runs the Liberal machine, while
none dares discuss the subject of ballot
box stuffing, of special registration trains,
OF registrars as candidates, and other
wholesale frauds, the impudent organ talks

very charges. The character assassin

We repeat here with emphasis, that we

NEW YORK DEMOCRATS.

Of course New York politicians will turn
up their noses at Mr.. HENRY WATTERsoN,
when he tells the truth concerning them, as
he did in the Courier Journal editorial which
was reproduced in The HERALD's tele-
graphic columns on Thursday; but they
cannot hide from the Democracy of the
nation the fact that the Democracy of New
York is an untrustworthy and mischieyous
institution which is eternally annoying,
distressing and endangering the party else
where. By reason of the strife and bicker-
ing in New York Democrats throughout
the nation are kept on the ragged edge,
whereas if the party were united and har-
monious in the great state we could count
upon results with a reasonable degree of
certainty. There has not been national
convention for twenty-five years when the
party has not bowed down to New
York. In building platforms New
York has been permitted to faahion
the planks, and in selecting candidates
care has been taken to chose those who
gave best promise of harmonizing the fac
tions in the Empire state, no other part of
the union being taken into account.
| The Democracy cannot yet succeed with
out the assistance Of New York, but we
believe Mr. WATTERsoN utters the senti-
ment OF the national Democracy when he
intimates that the party may cease to bow
down before the autocrat and will tell the
New Y ork Democrats that, if they would
be influential they must quit quarreling
among themselves, must harmonic and bt
patriots, thinking more of the party
success than of personal gain
Should the Democratic sentiment con
tinue to spread and increase in thu
west as it has done during the past tw,
years, there will be no occasion for tn
Democrats to stand in awe of the quarrel
some factions in New Y ork, and the Democ
racy of that state will find that it's powe

FOR THE SAKE OF DECENCY.

The Liberal organ makes the old proverb
read something like this: Some are born
great, others achieve greatness, and some
become Liberal politicians. 1t announces
that the boyish McCALLUM, chairman of
the Liberal party, is older than either
ALEXANDER or NAPOLEON was at the time
they had achieved greatness. But the fact
that some great men were young does not
prove that every young man is great;
especially does it not prove that ex-regis-
trar MAC. is great. For example, what
has he ever said that was worthy of repeti-
ton, or written that was worth preserva
ton? Is he scholar, soldier, respected
citizen, or simply a Liberal ex-registrari

glad to print it. Our contention was
that it is humiliation to every

did his bidding. Where one man rules, as

any branch of human learning or in any
department of honorable Enterprise. To be
ruled by talented aristocrat Is sufficiently
humiliating; to be ruled by mediocre dull
ness is simply intolerable. Hence, when
our contemporary maintains that it is per-
fectly right and proper that The chairman
of the Liberal party should dictate to the
Utah commission the names of all election
officers in the territory, it should at least
have the considerate decency to tell the
subjects of this unlimited monarch some.

of the boosted-up autocrat. For our OWL
part, we should blush to intimate that the

of mobocracy, monopolies and trusts may
all be so many snakes being warmed in the
country's bosom, and may occasionally
sting US; but the corruption OF the kind
alleged in the Chicago election is disease
within the government itself more deadly
in its destructive tendencies than all the
other evils combined.
Great as was the empire of Rome, as con-
fdent as our own great republic in the
soundness and perpetuity of her institu-
tions, she was not long in going into decay
when once the will of her people could be
defeated in the election of her officers, and
when fraud could unblushingly corrupt her
elections. Not only the fate of Rome, but
that of all republics gives out warning to
our nation that should not go UNDECIDED.

GLASS AND THE TARIFF.

The junior Republican organ says of the
increased tariff on glass, an infant industry
that has lately passed its hundredth year
of tariff nursing, and now gets more tariff
pap than ever, that
1t does not follow that consumers will have
to pay two or three prices for glass. The his
tory of the glass industry in the United States
has furnished striking effect Of home produc-
ton on prices. AS the business has increased
in this country prices have steadily fallen until
ordinary plate glass costs only about one
quarter what it did when we were compelled to
rely on foreign manufacturers.
The attention OF our youthful friend is
invited to the following tables of prices:
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1891-04-10

The foreign price is ess than half what
it was in 1867, while the home price is a
beggarly s per cent. less than it was in 1860.
AS the foreign price fell from better modes
of production the ''home manufacturers"
rushed into Congress for successive in
creases in the tariff rates on glass. In 1897
the tariff on glass was 10 per cent. by 1857
it had by,successive increases, the Infant"
requiring more pap as it grew older, been
increased to "a per cent. In 1861 it was
raised to 30 per cent; in 1867 the rate was
30 to 4O.per cent; in 1888 the rate was 40 to
As per cent. and by the MCKINLEY bill the
rate of tax runs all the way from 45 to 100
per cent. and over. Will our youthful
contemporary acknowledge its error, or
else explain its assertion? We shall see.
