GOLD AND SILy Err.

Perhaps there is in America no man who
better understands the silver question than
General A. J. WARNER. His efforts in
behalf of the restoration of silver to its
constitutional position in our monetary
system are unceasing. Recently he wrote
letter clearly explaining the difference
between that vicious law OF 1890, with
which Congress undertook TO fool the peo-
pie, and free coinage. General WARSER's
views are those which THE HERALD has
ever maintained. We have held that any
thing short of absolute free coinage, any
thing which gives gold any advantage over
silver, is wrong in principle and vicious in
practice; il reduces silver to the condition
of merchantable product, and to that ex-
tent depreciates its value as money; it
must necessarily result in wrong being
done. and it makes no difference whether
the government or spectators perpetrate
that wrong. General WAhNER's letter is
so completely in harmony with this paper
position on the silver question that we re-
produce 1t in full here;
No monetary policy can long endure that is
not founded on sound principle. For this rea-
son the act of July IA, 1890, providing for the
purchase OF silver bullion and storing it as a
sort of collateral for the issue of pap er money,
cannot be accepted as final solution of the Sill
yer question.
Itis important that the difference between
this policy and free coinage should be thor
ougnly understood.
In the one case silver itself is money. abso-

UTAH AS A STATE.

The Chicago Tribune of last Sunday, re-
ferring to the Forthcoming report OF the
Utah commission, says:
Were Utah TO be admitted as a state con-
trolled by Mormons, as it would be, polygamy
would be as vivacious as ever, and it would be
impossible to find petit jury to convict or a
grand jury to ndict a poygamst or even
prosecutor to try cases against them.
newspaper with the pretensions of the
Tribune to responsibility, should at least
endeavor to keep itself pos ted with regard
to matters upon which it comments editori
ally. In the first place, it should know
there is NO desire or wish of the Mormons
to re-estabiish polygamy. 1t is renowned,
! abolished forever, both by the church
authorities and the laity. Were the federal
prohibitory law abrogated tomorrow.
polygamy would not be rehabilitated.
| Perhaps the Tribune can explain whv
it would be more difficult to find a petit
jury to convict or q grand jury to
indicta polygamIst' were Utah a state than
now. With preciselythe same logic our
Chicago temporary may accuse the peo-
pie of the southern states of determine
ton to reinstate slavery, for the reason
that they may not all have renowned the
theoretical view that slavery was right.
For long time Republicans did hold that
the south possessed no rights, because the
citizens of the southern states were still
disloyal and rebellious, no matter what
professions they made, or how faithfully
they carried out promises and pledges. For
long time, too, they were subjected to the
|
control, being reduced to 1.-THE CON
dition of mere appendages of the
government. No reasonable person
now contends that there ever was
a design or desire to return to slavery after
the close of the war. Thousands, indeed.
reioiced that the triumph of the union arms
had carried the abolition of slavery with it.
for they realized that this institution.
against which the sentiment of the civilized
world was arraigned. really weakened the
south and retarded her progress. 1t is so
in Utah relative to the system of plural
marriages The former advocates of this
''patriarchal" system, in giving up the in
stitution, have not felt called upon to even
review their past course as to the right or
wrong of it. They simply, and with all the
sincerity of their hearts, say to them
selves and to all the world, that hence
forth there shall be no ground for
further antagonism on this subject.
and that the practice of their religion
shall conform to that of other churches in
respect to the marriage laws. There is no
movement on the part of the Mormons tor
statehood. As we understand their posi- :
ton, they can as well afford to live under a
territorial government as other citizens,

THE FRAUD CONFESSED.

The fraud practiced on Major MCKINLEY
at Piqua, O., to which THE HERALD made
reference yesterday, has resulted in con-
fession BY the principal proprietors of the
''tin plate works." as we learn from the
following, printed in the Chicago Tribune
(MCKINLEYITE)
Messrs. HICKS & BATELLB made the confes.
sion that they had taken the steel plates they
manufactured and dipped them in bath OF the
melted pig lead borrowed from Captain KE1FER,
and then rolled them to secure a polish that
would make them look like the imported tin
They admitted that, in fact there was nothing
about the tin plates made in the presence of Nc
kISLEY that would entitle them to the name of
American tin plate, because there was not an
ounce OF American tin or any other kind of tin in
a single one OF the plates
The Cincinnati Enquirer adds its mite to
the stock Of information on this subject
viz:
At the great MCKINLEY meeting at Music hal
on Saturday night, thousands and thousands OF
thin. white metal circular disks, arranged as
badges and bearing the legend, American Tir
Plate" were scattered promiscuously arounC
and given in handfuls TO any who would take
them. These badges were furnished on contract
by stamp cutter on Longworth street of this
city, and in the whole bulk of them there was
not an ounce of American tin.
In view of these facts, the leading edito
rial of Salt Lake paper yesterday. ex.
pstiating on the virtues of the protective
tariff as applied to the sucking industry OF
tin plate making, is good enough for Pucl

LIAR AND HORSETHIEF.

A large part of the time of the New
Orleans police force is occupied in prevent
ing duels between the newspaper editors
of that blood and-thunder city. Last Fri
day it took captain and twenty patrol
men all the afternoon to hunt up Col.
WICKLIFFE, editor of the NelO Delta, and
Gen. DUPRE, editor of the States, and put
them under bonds to keep the peace. There
has been controversy between these val
liant pen-wielders on the point as to which
is Influenced by the purer motives in their
respective attitudes towards the Louisiana
lottery question. Thus we learn from the
States that defamation, scurrility and
ignorance are the Ne1U Delta's stock in
trade, to which Col. WIcKLIFFE over his
own signature replies that the editor Of the
States, lone GEORGE w. DUPRE," Stands
as confessed thief and periurer,n is a
''eunuch in head, conscience and heart, and
besides has placed himself outside 1.-The
code which usually governs gentlemen In
the settlement of personal matters" To
these amiable and polite terms the general
responds that the colonel is "a cross be-
tween shyster, amendicant and tramp
also "a blackguard," and likewise "a hero
with the pluck of swashbuckler and the
venom of a viper"
How ridiculous all this sounds There
probably couldn't be piece of invective
invented in these late days which wouldn't
be an infringement, nor an approbious
term applied that hasn't been more sting
ingly applied before. 1t is poor ambition
in newspaper writer to excel in this

have noticed that it is generally the men of
the smallest mental calibre who take any
delight in il

THE TAX REDUCTION

The inst tuition of the suit in the district
court by MIR. HIRAM JOHNSON to annul the
late action of the city council, sitting as a
board of equalization, in declaring reduc-
ton of 20 per cent, of all taxes on real es-
tate and improvements, is proper enough.
Mr.. JOHNSON, who is not real estate own
er, but pays taxes on personal property,
claims that the reduction is illegal in that
1t does not apply to all kinds Of property.
The members of the council who voted for
the resolution hold that real estate had
been valued too highly by the assessor,
whereas personal PROPERTY, such as mer-
chsndise, capital stock of companies,
and so on had been assessed at just
what 1t was worth, it being an
easy matter to arrive at the value of such
property. If the position Of the council
men is correct, then the petitioner in this
action has no ground upon which to stand,
inasmuch as it is the duty of the council to
equalize assessments, reducing where the
assessor has gone too high, and increasing
where his Judgment has been at fault. 1t
is a matter in which the public is interested
in seeing justice done, 20 class of property
owners desiring 10 take advantage of any
other class.
1t may be remarked here that the city
council should be represented in this case
by another lawyer than the city attorney
We say this through no feeling of disrespect
for Mr.. HALL, nor because of any lacE
of confidence in his ability and integrity
but it is well known that he is on record
as occupying exactly the position which
Mr.. JOHNSON seeks to establish by thi,
suit. His opinion is now on file with the
recorder. il would, therefore. be asking
too much of him and would be unfair t.
the city council, to put upon the city attor
ney the duty Of defending that which
within ten days he has officially declared Il
be wrong. The council and the people wan
the question involved settled properly, an,
TO that end want the presentation in cour
of the position opposite to that of the peti
toner to be made as full and complete a
possible. The council will be justified il
the employment of the best legal sssistanc
10 be had in the city, excusing Mr.. Hal
and relieving him of the suspicion of con
nivance IN the assault upon the council
action.

HARRISON AND THE CIVIL SERVICE.

The objection of the administration to
Civil Service Commissioned LYMAN that he
has been too lax in the cases OF several rel
atives in Office, AMI must therefore be re
moved is too funny. Never since the
civil service law was enacted, some seven
or eight years ago, has its enforcement
been so careless or inefficient as from the
time Mr.. HARRISON came into power. Ne
potism prevail in all the departments and
branches of the public service. The sys-
TEN of substituting" or farming out of
places, has become scandalous. Absentee
ism, especially about election or convention
times, is notorious. And, with a greater
number of clerks than ever before, the
public work is lamentaoly behind in nearly
every division. Reports to the President
of the remissness, or worse, of employees
IN different custom houses and post
offices have been allowed to slumber in
dusty pigeon-holes, and the law is pooh
poohed alike by executive and subordinate
appointees. Not only this, but the thinnest
disguise is placed over assessments fol
political purposes, and rank partisanshiL
| prevails almost everywhere, from the
secretary of the treasury, who is about tt
stump Ohio, down to the porters in the
dead-letter Office

PARSONS POLITICS.
bis Inconsistent Position Puts Him In an
Awkward Attitude.

To the Editor OF THE HERALD:
The way NJ. X. Parsons PUSHES in to
print to defend the city council in turning
down the name of NJ. b. Sowles is eau
ton. Only Ithe week before he lobbied
around and finally nominated and had the
council confirm Spencer Clawson on the
board Of public works. Now, while l ap-
prove Of the action of the council IN con-
tirming Mr.. ClaWson jfor he is a thorough
business man and a Democrat, yet the
question arises, what kind of line does
Mr.. Parsons draw in the question of party
fealty! One week ne dominates and has
confirmed the leader of the old Peoples
party, q gentleman who has been an appo-
nent to the Liberal party from its very
birth. The next week he not only votes
but works against gentleman who has
done as much for the Liberal party, and
has probably done as much TO lend dignity
20 it. as any man in Utah. Within the last
few months Mr.. Sowles expressed himself
in favor of party division. and was imme
diately honored by one of the national par
ties by being placed at the head of its
ticket during the last election. This one
action in Mr.. Sowles' career seems TO have
totally disqualified him, in Councilman Par
sons eyes, from further usefulness to the
W, u
is this gentlemans exact position in the
matter, as expressed in his interview in
an evening paper. Inclosed is the inter
view. Please republish it. 1t is verita-
! bic jewel:
Sentiment is all very touching when it does
not interfere with mans purse or politics,
said Councilman Parsons, speaking TO toe right
of an office holuer to nominate his own deputy.
but I'll vi nture a general proposition that you
| wont find one man in hundred whose party Is
| in the mastery who won't insist on the litei al
unauthorized application of his party maxim
that to the victor belong the spoils. agree
that the principal who gives bond for the faith
| full performance of his duties should nave the
right to elect his agent and especially his
representative in any responsible position. but
it is scarcely customary to ask an administers
! ton to adopt some one whose politics Il
directly opposed to it. These are my views
upon the ma ter and I believe that when the
gentlemen look into 1t without prejudice they
| will agree with me- This is Liberal ad
| ministration and no man had right to wea
any other mantle, having been elected as
Liberal, without throwing up the Job and walk
| ing out of the office.
How is this for consistency and honesty

IT Is understood that the cost Of the
street pavements, when any shall be laid,
having been paid by the owners of the
abuttlng property, the expense of the re-
pairs will be borne by the general fund ;
but who will pay for keeping the sidewalks
in repair2 The indications are that in a

some of the new sidewalks in good condi-
