Broadside on the shoals.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 1O.-The superin-
tendent of the life saving service to-
night received telegram from the
keeper of the life saving station at
Assateaque, Va, saying the United
States steamer Dispatch is broadside on
the shoals and fast going to pieces. Her
officers and crew landed safely and are
now being cared for by the life-saving
men. She was built in 1874, and some
years later was purchased by the gov
ernment from Henry G. Smith, New
York stock broker and yachtsman, for
$4,000. The Dispatch was soon to have
been displaced by the Dolphin, now
fitting out at Norfolk as dispatch boat.

the Mormon church by such men as Senators
HOAR, EDMUNDS and others, and of the clergy
on the ground of its polygamy, is per maps
largely due to the ia ct that said church mas
solved the problem of poverty, not fully, but TO
far larger extent than has any other church
or any political party. In the eyes OF small men
on high pedestalS, there is no crime so great as
the manifestation of superior practical sagaclty
in solving perplexing problems. II t he govern
ment desires to arrest the growth OF Mormon-
ism, it can do it at far less cost than by means
of armies or restrictive laws. The abolition OF
involuntary poverty is within the power Oh
every state in the union and to every country IN
the world. The exercise of this power will
leave no vantage ground on which Mormon
missionaries can stand, in that respect, willis
leaving full opportunity to expound their pecu-
liar theological views. Errors in these, or IN
their practices, can not be better met by
schools libraries and other means OF moral ana
intellectual culture than by armies or by courts
of law. And, as separate item, tn repulslve-
ness of polygamy, under the improved clrcum-
stances. would ofitself ensure its abolitiod
We shall not enter into any argument
with the Star as to the secret of the sue

we are at loss to understand the drift OF

Polygamy is already abolished in Utah
There is less of it here than in San Fran
cisco. The writor IN the Star is frank and
ingenious, but somewhat behind the times
on this question.

profitable to live in the city than in the
country while prices of farm products re-
main as they are. Farming is not
profitable, and the farmers are not
prosperous. The farmer tolls early and
late, dresses poorly and has few comforts,
and at the end of the year is fortunate if he
can pay the interest on the mortgage which
covers his land. He is deprived of mar
ket for his products, or is forced to sell at
prices which do not repay him for his labor
and investment. Thus. the agriculturists
are able to feed the rapidly increasing city
population, and still have vast surplus
which must be sold at loss or permitted to
go to decay, or burnt for fuel as
is done with corn in Kansas, Nebraska and
Iowa. Under such circumstances, is it any
wonder that farmers sons seek the cities,
where they can obtain employment and
money! Would it not be surprising If
these boys were to continue on the farms,
toiling year after year and seeing no accu-
mutation, no light in the futurel Some
thing Is wrong in the industrial system
when what has been regarded as the freest
and most independent of the occupations
is so badly paid that it has become less in
dependent and more slavish than the field
of the day laborer. If discriminating leg
islation is the cause of the trouble, then
that legislation should be repealed, and the
party responsible for it repudlated; what
ever the cause it should be removed.

THE OGDEN ELECTION.

1t was not a great victory which the
Citizens won in Ogden on Monday, but 1t
was, perhaps, as much as they had right
to expect, considering that all the election
machinery was under the control OF the
opposition, aud considering also the fact
that mighty few Liberals have yet found
the courage to vote other than the party
directs. The returns bear US out in the as
sertion that with the exception OF the vote
for mayor not many Liberals supported the
Citizens ticket. Mr.. Turner, the success
full candidate for mayor, is recognized as
wise, conservative gentleman who can be
safely entrusted with the duty of guiding
the city's affairs, while his competition Is
a whisky seller and is regarded as the rep
resentative of that element which injured
Ogden's reputation for peace, good order
and morality. This will account for the
election of Mr. TURNER, whose vote, 1t Will
be seen, is larger than that of the combined
vote of the Citizens candidates for coun-
cilmen in the respective wards. Two
wards returned Citizens nominees,
not on account of Liberal defections
but because the Liberals have been and
are in the minority in those wards. The
Liberals with very few exceptions, sup
ported their ticket except as to mayor
However, the make up of the new coun-
ell is such that wise, safe and conserva-
tive government for Ogden is assured
There will be none of the recklessness and
extravaganza which have characterized
the administration of the past two years
While the mayor and Citizen councilmer
may do nothing to which the Liberals dc
not consent, the former will be able to holt
check on the gentlemen who may desire
to pursue purely Liberal methods. L
would have been far better if the majority
were on the other side, but Ogden has oc
casion for self-congratulation, and vii
now march to greatness with steadier ant
safer tread.

FLOCKING TO THE CITIES.

The tendency Of the people to flock to the
cities is causing statesmen and editors
some worriment This tendency has
greatly increased during the decade, as
shown by the late census, the population
increase for the whole country being 24S6
per cent. while that OF the cities was much
higher. The Philadelphia Times, in an
article on the subject, points out that the
growth in city population is quite as
marked in the smaller as in the larger
cities, and goes on to explain that twenty
eight cities are shown to possess popula-
ton above 100000, gain of eight in ten
years. OF the largest cities Chicago
shows the greatest proportionate gain-119
per cent OF the older cities Brooklyn's
gam is 43 per cent; Buffalo, 81; Cleveland,
%; Pittsburg, So; Washington, 80; Detroit,
20, and Milwaukee, n per cent. The eight
towns that have been added to the 100000
list since 1SS0-Minneapolis, Omaha,
Rochester, St. Paul, Kansas City, Indian
apolis, Denver and Allegheny-haye made
astonishing strides. Omaha, which leads
in increase, gained 800 per cent. Mime
apolis gained 356 per cent; St Paul, 224 ;
Denver, 203, and Kansas City, 40.
1t is also pointed out that the inclination
to drift to the city exists in the old states
as well as in the new. For instance, in
New Hampshire the total population in.
crease for the ten years is 29, $50, while the
increase in twelve cities and towns with
over 1000 inhabitants is 29,455, or within
81 of the whole increase in the state A
similar state Of things is shown in Maine
Vermont New York and Pennsylvania.
Why this is so is easily enough under
stood, but not that it should be So The ex
PLANTATION is found in the fact that it is NOR,
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1891-02-11

1t is now being dug out of the different
census returns that the social philosophers
who have been predicting great negro
wave of population that would ultimately
overwhelm the white race in this country,
were mistaken. When the second national
census was made, in the year 1900, it re-
veaied a growth of 80 per cent. in the white
population CT the country, and of 81 per
cent. in the black, in the preceding ten
years. In two or three decades since then
the increase IN each race touched some
what higher figures, but the tendency in
the past thirty years has been downward.
Between 1880 and 1890 the growth of the
whites has been approximately 26 per cent.
and that of the negroes Ii per cent. Stated
differently, the negro constituted 10 per
cent of the aggregate population of the
country one hundred years ago, and held
that ratio until 1910, when he dropped to Is
per cent. He receded to II per cent. in
1910, to l6 per cent. in 1850, to IA per cent
in 1850, to ID per cent. in 1870 and to II pei
cent. in 1890. A hundred years ago the
black man, broadly speaking, numbered
about one in five of the inhabitants of the
country, while to-day he does not react
one in eight.

If THE following piece of Liberal humro
does not raise laugh, then the citizens of
Salt Lake can not appreciate joke when
they see one:
while more work has been done on the
water than had been done before for ten
years, while more work has been done on
the streets than has been done in twenty
years; while the fire department has been
doubled in efficiency, THE HERALD has in
sisted all the time that all the money was
being squandered.'
There is childish humor in playful ex-
eggeration, as when boy declares that a
thousand cats had kept him awake one
night. The hyperbole in the first sentence
is only ten to one, as compared with the
truth; in the second it rises to twenty to
one, while in the last two it passes all
mathematical bounds and taxes the imagina-
ten.
We hope, by the way. that our use of the
word "taxes" will not be construed as an
insult to any city official by either Of the
organic concerns, always so sensitive on
this point

CLAGGETT GETS THERE.

To-day the Idaho legislature will meet in
joint session and proceed to declare Hon.
WIN. H. CLAGGETT duly elected United
States Senator for the full six years term
beginning on March next. The two
houses in separate session have already
chosen him, and to-day will witness the for
nal approval of their respective acts.
1t is possible thai The HERALD will have
to confess its error of judgment, but we DO
not believe it. Mr.. CLAGGETT may gete the
seat in the Senate which Mr.. DUBOIS is
eager to occupy, but we shall not think so
until it is announced that the ambitious
politician from north Idaho is safely within
the precincts of the coveted chair. We do
believe that Mr.. CLAGGETT will forward
his credentials to Washington, whittier he
will follow them next December; that he
will then put in personal claim to the
seat; that his papers and those of DUBOIS
will be referred to the committee on privi-
leges and elections, which will promptly
report that DUBOIS is and CLAGGETT is not
entitled to the seat, whereupon the for
mer will be sworn in and duly
installed as Senator from Idaho, and the
Mountains to figure up the cost of his
ridiculous campaign, while the members OF
the legislature who stood in with him in
this foolish business will wonder if they OF
the Senators in Washington are proper
subjects for ridicule. We say this is oul
belief as to the outcome of what we must
regard as farce inspired and worked up &c
a finish by disappointed and disgruntled
politician. 1t is possible that we are il
error, and next winter will be forced tt
record the fact that CLAGGETT knew better
than we what he was about
There are some things in connection with
this business that we cannot understand
and which nobody in the Idaho Legislature
has attempted to explain; at least, if there
has been an explanation, the fact ha
escaped US. There has been no change il
the membership of the legislature since
early in Dece mber, when the two branche
of the assembly came together and declare,
Mr.. DUBOIS duly chosen a Senator of the
United States for the term beginning o.
March 4, 1891. How can the gentlemen VIII
voted for Mr.. CLAGGETT Yesterday for tn
same term as that covered by Mr.. DUBOIS
election reconcile their acts this week wit
those of last December! Then, if the Dt
cember election can be declared invalid an
void by the legislature in February, can
not the February election be declared in
validated by a similar proceas at som
future time? What is to prevent the ma
iority of yesterday from saying to -morro'
that CLAGGETT was not legally chosen, an
from proceeding to choose another man fo
the place? In fact, if there can be ''monke.
ing'' of this kind in one instance, what is I
hinder continuance of the monkey
business until every ambitious politician
the state has been tickled with an electio
to the United States Senate!
