They Can't Make Ii a Go.

Some of the Republican orators and cal
cium lights VINO are wasting their time IN
going about the county telling protective
tariff stories, are endeavoring as a means
of defeating Joseph S. Peery the Democra-
tic candidate for superintendent of county
schools, to impress upon the minds of the
voters the falsity that he is not in any way
eligible TO that position from the fact that
his residence is not within the district
where the votes are cast for superinten-
dent of public schools. They try to make
believe further, that because the voters
within the municipal corporation OF Ogden
city DO not vote for county superintendent
of schools that Mr.. Peery is not qualified
for that position.
Taking article III. of an act Of the general
assembly of Utah entitled IAN act TO pro-
vide for uniform system of free schools
throughout Utah territory,"s section 5
reads:
.At the general election for the year 1891
and Diennially thereafter, there shall be
elected for each county in this territory q
county superintendent of district schools,
who shall be registered rotor therein and
whose term of Office shall be two years and
until his successor is elected and qualified;
before entering upon the duties of his Of
| fee the county superintendent shall quail
| fy by taking and subscribing an OATH of
ONCE ana giving a DOuu, lCE Tue ldllulu III
discharge of his duties. in the penal sum of
s, 900, with sureties TO be approved by the
probate Judge Of the county,
which oath and bond shall be
filed with the clerk Of the county court
This single article explains the whole mat
ter in question and it is just as Hon. c. c.
Richards said 10 a HERALD representative
yesterday when asked his opinion on the
subject, 'If MIR. Peery is a registered
voter within the county, which he is, he is
eligible TO the Office of county superintend
ent There are some offices TO which a
person is not eligible unless he resides in
the immediate boundaries where the votes
are cast, but in the case of this Office it is
different. MIR. Peery is just as eligible as
any other man residing in the county TO
occupy that place"
Judge Henderson said, without question
Mr.. Peery is perfectly eligible and has a
right to occupy the office of superintendent
of county schools.
The Republicans have the impudence to
make this point in their favor, but they
will fail in it as in every dishonest design.

PROVO PARAGRAPHS
Democracy Still Booming in the
Garden City.
Is Mr.. Cuff Registered Voter?-The Depot
Question Again Agitated-Gen-
eral News.

Most of the rif1emen returned to Salt
Lake last night number remaining for
more extended visit.
The balls at the lake, Tanners park and
Graves grove all went OF swimmingly,
all classes participating. The trains from
the lake were returning at very sleepy
hour heavily loaded with humanity The
resort was taxed 10 its utmost during the
day and evening.
The minstrel company which held the
boards at the opera house last night did not
receive a very f1attering patronage owing
TO the many attractions elsewhere and the
public prejudice against amateur minstrel
companies. The boys gave as good show
as il was anticipated they would, and were
cheered on by frequent interruptions OF
applause.
The people are up and ready to give the
Democratic expounders, Paul, Judd and
Over, din of hurrahs and cheers that VIII
make our city tremble, upon the occasion
OF their exposition of party principles at
the opera house to night. The manner In
which the farmers and laborers are being
buncoed by Republican high tariff meas
ures is becoming more and more apparent,
and the people of Utah county will not ally
with that party.
The opera house band have telegraphed
for fine set of instruments and propose to
maintain as good an organization as can be
found in the territory. The members are
nearly all musicians of long experience and
capable of handling the highest grade OF
music. Prof. Giles has been selected to
act as musical director, and will give the
business his attention. An effort will be
made to make a notable change in the quail
ity of the brass music that one is accus-
toned to hear in this section.
1t is stated that Mr.. Benjamin Cluh, the
Republican candidate for superintendent of
district schools for Utah county, is not
registered voter. The reason for his name
not appearing on the list has not been
given, but 1t is very probable that he will
not be voted for at the August election.
1t is a matter of little moment, however
whether or not he can pose as a candidate
as it is well established that Z. A. Wilson
the Democratic candidate, is the choice of
the people of our county, and that Bonnie
would only be put to the modification of q
monstrous defeat.
Now that the depot question is again sgi-
tated, q strong effort is being made to Sc
cure its location at the west part OF the
city. The rapidity with which this section
is building up warrants a consideration of
the matter by the railroad officials, who
will be consulted by delegation Of west
enders as soon as their ears can be gained
access to. ..

OPIUM SMOKING APPARATUS.
The hardest, the most perplexIng task at
tempted by the society, is to keep young
women from becoming the prey TO Chinese
purveyors of vice through the seductive
medium of opium. In the first place, it is
hard to make a raid and catch any one at
home. John Chinaman's watchers are
vigilant, and at a hurried warning every
occupant of a joint can be spirited away
in an incredibly short space of time,
even the haif-daZed creatures under
the influence of the drug catching the ex-
ample of flight Even when John and his
victim are caught, it is not easy to convict
the one and rescue the other, as the girl in
the casa always swears she is over sixteen;
if SO the law can do nothing for her. But
magistrates are accustomed 10 hold such
oaths very lightly and to judge by appear
ances. If the girl does not look sixteen, 1t
goes hard with John. His crime is one
that finds little sympathy with courts or
officers. Mott street is a pest hole of vice.
At least it would be impossible TO convince
an s. p. c. L. G. agent that it is not.
WHAT'S this over on the other side. As
live, it's a bar-lhe bar of the society.
What will you have. Rum, gin, whisky,
fine brandy or plain lager: Here's stuff
that might be valuable if age is any sign,
for the cobwebs are thick upon the bot
ties; but the light of the westering sun is
full upon it and wine loves darkness.
These bottles contain testimony used to
convict liquor sellers of selling strong
drinks to children. It's usually easy
enough to convict, but as the only punish
ment ordinarily inflicted is fine, the lille
gal traffic goes on much as before. Here
are dice and

Concerning the Reciprocity Arrangement.

SARATOGA. N. Y, Aug. 2.-Gen. John w.

the President is stopping. The two have

tiers. 1t is stated authoritstively, how

with the Spanish treaty. and that none of
it's clauses is the subject of dispute. Re-
ferring to the impression that England and
Canada would derive equal benefit with
the United States from the operation of our
reciprocity treaty with respect to Cuba,
because the one years notice of the de-
nouncement of Spain's treaty with Eng
land was not made in July of this year by
Spain. thus deferTing the exercise of that
privilege. as has been assumed. until July
10 of next year. and comforting thereby an
extension of benefits to England until
July L, 1893. General Foster said:
The official publication of the
reciprocity arrangement with SPAN. made
tains the announcement by the Minister of
State that all commercial treaties which
Spain hae with European governments
have already been denounced. and that the
last of them will cease to have any force on
the 1st of July next. This declaration
makes it clear that neither England. Can
ada nor any other of the British posses
siOns will enjoy any of the benefits of the
