Congress will rext be called upon to act,
and give life and effect to the movement
just inaugurated. That Congress will do
doubt, the wisdom and propriety OF the
thing being apparent.
The only fear in connection with the ir-
rigation congress was that men might take
advantage of the convention to inaugurate
Jobs, and advance schemes for depriving
the government and the people of the pub
lie domain. There has been so much of this
sort OF thing that the apprehensions were
not unnatural; rather were they to be ex-
pected. However, now that the congress
has adjourned and the record been made
up, now that ali that was said
and done is before US, we think those
fears will vanish and all will feel that the
movement is wholly in the interest of the
public. Everything which might be con-
strued into a suggestion of iobbery was
carefully guarded against, and the resolu-
tons adopted as speaking the sentiments OF
the congress contain not word and ex-
press no thought which can be assailed.
The people interested only want the lands
reclaimed and made valuable on such terms
as shall be equitable to the state
and to the individuals, the matter
to be carefully guarded by such
regulations as those in whom
confidence is reposed shall impose, the
benefits to accrue to the community.
Having made SO good a beginning, we
may hope that the work will progress sat
isfactorily until much of this vast wilder
ness of desert shall be made to furnish
homes for millions of happy, prosperous
people, greatly enriching the nation, and
if it viii not be treason to the east to say
so-ma.erially increasing the power of the
mighty west in the affairs of the republic.

ANOTHER OKLAHOMA RUSH.

AT high noon next Tuesday, by proclama-
ton of the President, citizens may go upon
the recently coded lands of Oklahoma, and
selecting sites begin the work of acquiring
title under the homestead law. Hundreds
of families have been camping on the Dor
der, some of them for weeks impatiently
awaiting the word from Washington which
would permit them to cross the line. The
country is like that which was thrown
open to settlement year or two ago, and
which created such furore; it is like it,
only not quite so good, SO the reports say.
We wish 1t was better, for then the poor
people who are wildly rushing
on to the ground, most of them with small
means, and very few with sufficient wealth
to support them until they can draw their
living from the soil, would not have to ep-
peal to Congress aud the charitable for
assistance as the Oklahomans were CON-
PEELED to do.
1t is human nature to want that which is
difficult to obtain. For many years there
has been longing for the lands of Okla
homa, and numerous were the invading ex-
petitions. In time and money it cost the
| boomers" much more than the land was
worth, when all the while, all during these
years, there was plenty of land in
Texas and Arkansas, and just as
good in every respect as that of
Indian territory, which could have been
had for the taking and the payment of a
nominal price. The fact that Oklahoma
was closed to settlement made the people
hungry for that particular land, and having
acquired it a good many came to their
senses only to learn that they had wasted
much time and money.
1t will be extraordinary and out of the
usual order if appeals for aid do not come
from the settlers on the territory to be &C.
cupied next Tuesday before the close of
winter, and if long before titles have been
secured many of the disheartened no me
steaders do not offer their claims for les S
than the land has cost them in labor and

A SPLENDID BEGINNING.

Everybody interested should be, and we
believe everybody is, satisfied with the
work done by the irrigation congress.
This is only the beginning Of a campaign
which must be carried on perhaps for
years, but it is such beginning as encour-
ages Us all to think that success will come
through the well directed efforts now SETH
motion. We have called the atten ton of
the country at large to the fact that out
here in the west is vast area of land
which Is to-day practically worthless; that
millions upon millions of acres stretching
from the Missouri river to the Pacific
ocean are valueless to the nation and
to individuals, and will so con-
unue for all time unless the
life-giving element water-can be
brought to it. We have also brought to
the knowledge Of the American people the
fact that large proportion of this so
called arid land, this almost desert, can be
transformed into prolific fields and smiling
gardens, producing homes and support for
almost as many people as there are acres of
ground. The occular demonstration has
been given in the marvellous transforms
ton which has taken place in Utah and
other sections of the arid region. The
congress has not only given the matter
greater prominence than it ever before en-
joyed, but has set in motion the
machinery by which the reclamation

tions inimical to the west in it's silver
views are, then, exactly what may be ex
pected from Massachusetts. Nearly every
and consequently on the money lenders
side in politics. In addition to this,
they hold large amount of the
shares and bonds of what are called
western railroads, but which are really
owned in the northeast, the very roads
that claim and hold the unearned lard
grants. 1t was the sort of Massach usetts
that produced CAKES AMEs.
Let US give an illustration of the adroit-
ness with which Massachusetts has man
aged to make the whole country pay trib-
ute to every vocation followed there:
Fishing and tobacco raising can hardly be
said to be manufacturing industries, and
therefore ought not to come within the
charmed circle of protected callings. But
they are followed, in small way, in two
or three of the New England states. There
are only two of these states that raise to-
ACCOMPLISHMENTS and Connecticut
and they raise only about one-thirtieth of
the crop of the country. But this
tobacco happens to be of the seed
leaf variety, used altogether for cigar
wrappers, and the foreign tobacco that
comes in contact with it is from
Sumatra. BY the tariff of 1888, Sumatra
tobacco was rated at SO cents pound, and
this was increased by the MCKINLEY act to
81 pound, which is of course prohibitory.
Virginia, Kentucky and Missouri produce
twenty times as much tobacco as Massa-
chusetts and Connecticut do, but, as it is
not used for wrappers, they cannot share
these benefits.
So catching and curing fish is not man
ufacturing industry, butt is an occupation
in which small number of persons in
| Massachusetts and on the New England
coast are engaged. The whole product is
only 100000 or sc, 100000 year, yet the
comparatively few persons employed in
this business are granted two special
fayors, that Of importing cheap British salt
free of duty, and that of protection against
Canadian competition by duty of 20 per
cent. on Canadian tish-favors worth

POOR OLD MASSACHUSETTS.

And 30 the Republicans of Massachusetts,
approve of the tariff legislation of the last
Congress! They might as well have said
they approve of bread and butter and
beans Why shouldn't they approve!
Wasn't it for them largely that the Nc
KINLEY bill was passed, In nominating
ALLEN for governor on . tariff, old gold
and bayonet platform, are they not protect
ing their own pockets We are not sure
that Mr.. CHARLES H. ALLEN is one of the
familiar firm of CLAFLIN & ALLEN, but his
name at least suggests that great boot and
shoe concern, which has had SO much in
terest in the perpetuity Of the Republican
party. In fact it would be hard to 60 amiss
among the Massachusetts Republicans for
a man not engaged in some protected man
ufacturing enterprise. Massachusetts
has no such thing as yeo-
many, no agricultural population, as
the term is understood in the west. All its
great interests are protected-its fishing
business, its cotton mills, its boot and shoe
factories; and even its little crops of
wheat, corn, rye, barley and potatoes are
augmented in price by duties which pro-
tect them against Canadian competition.
but whose effects fail to extend to the
west. In short, 1t may he said there are
no victims of protection in the common
wealth, all its people being bsnefciaries of
the policy.

MEN BETTER THAN THEIR PARTY.

In a speech since his nomination for |
governor of New York by the Republicans,
MIR, FAssETT said:
do not believe in any man who claims to be
better than his party, and we have no use for a
man who is worse than his party.
On the whole this is pretty good political
doctrine. In parties as in associations and
partnerships, personal preferences and
tastes must often be subordinated, because
organized effort is more effectual than that
of the individual, and the convictions of
the majority, both as to principle and expe-
diency, ought to govern.
Here in Salt Lake the expression is occa
sionally heard: 81 am a Democrat in
national elections, but Liberal in local
affairs" This is a slur upon the Democracy,
the members of which are certainly just as
honest and conscientious, and have
certainly as good opportunities to Judge
of what is best as any single citizen. If
the Democracy are competent to conduct
campaign on national issues they are capa-
BILE of conducting local campaigns on the
same issues, and every Democrat, sinking
his own ideas as to the details, should up
hold the hands of his party on every suit
able occasion. 1t is by such means only
that parties are strengthened and made
useful in great conflicts. The man who,
processing to be Democrat and to vote
the Democratic ticket on national occa-
sions, and who gives aid and comfort to the
opposition in local contests, who reads
Liberal or Republican newspapers in
preference to Democratic newspapers,
and who attends Liberal meet
ings and stays away from Demo
cratic meetings, is strange sort
fevors the Liberal side because be fears
being classed with the Mormon element,
but this is to say that Gentle Democrats,
who know that the Objectionable feature of
Mormonism is dead. are insincere and un-
worthy, and that to insure the good opinion
of the unseparated Democrats they must
keep on fighting the incorporeal air, and
brandishing their weapons of war against
an enemy Of straw. The Democrats of
Utah are too much impressed with the i'm
Importance of live issues to turn back to a
condition of belligerency, where to conquer
is to gain nothing. The Democracy are not
defending polygamy-there is no polygamy
to defend. That question, by general con-
sent, is laid away TO rest among the cata
combs of the past, without monument or
mausoleum. 1t never will, it never can,
be resurrected. To claim or pretend other
wise is the supremity of folly, and 10 make
the pretense the basis of political action or
association is the rankest hypocrisy and
mposture.
There is no occasion in this territory for
any other political parties than the Demo
cratic and the Republican. They are the
only national organizations in existence.
They very nearly voice the sentiments of
the people, pro and con, in the leading
questions of the day. The Liberal faction
may trail along for time, furtively living
on "reminiscences, UNCONVENTIONAL strife
hatred born of condition now exhausted
and lifeless: but its Intellectual light will
soon flicker and go out.

A TARIFF editor pathetically asks what
would the laborer's Saturday night be
without the TARIFF" Well, with the tariff
it is night when he goes home, hangs up
his hat, taxed 65 per cent, and washes his
face and hands in tin basin taxed 55 per
cent, with soap taxed 20 per cent, using a
towel taxed 40 per cent. He then eats his
supper from plate taxed 50per cent with
knife and fork also taxed 80 per cent.
His wife sits opposite wearing a wooden
dress taxed s. per cent, shoes taxed % per
cent. and stockings taxed 35 per cent.
After supper she sews on machine taxed
As per cent, using thread taXel 81 per
cent. and scissors taxed As per cent. The
tired laborer lies down on an iron bed taxed
IS per cent, draws over him sheet and
blanket taxed III per cent. and goes to
sleep to dream about MCKINLEY.

MONEY WANTED.

AT the impromptu meeting in the cham
Der Of commerce on Thursday evening Mr..
NEwLANDs related something of the work
which the silver committee had performed
towards restoring the white metal to its
rigktful place in our monetary system.
The committee had circulated a good deal
of literature of an educational character,
and as a necessary and natural result, pro-
gress had been made in the work. No
money had been spent corruptIy or wrong
fully; every dollar which had been paid
out had been given for a legitimate pur-
pose.
Mr.. NEwLANDs further declared in effect
that he especially was getting tired of
going down into his own pocket for the
means with which to carry on this cam
paign, and he appealed for assistance.
The HERALD has heretofore on many oc-
casions, referred to this committee and its
good work and urged upon the mining men
in particular and business men in general
the wisdom and necessity of contributing
towards the advancement of the cause
which has so much of material interest to
Utah. Our information is that this terri.
tory has already done more in financial
way for the silver campaign than any
other state or territory. Some 60 so far as
to say that we have done quite as much as
all the other states and territories COM
bined. However this may be, we can and
should do more. Our people can afford it,
and we are confident they will continue to
contribute. They will do this quite as
much as public benefactors as in their own
personal interest, the advantage accruing
from the restoration of free coinage being
much more largely enjoyed by the people OF
the west and south generally-the debtors
If you please-than by the people of Utah
who cannot be designated as belonging To
the owing class. True, we are large pro-
ducers of silver and in that sense free coin
age will be to our advantage, but less so
than to the masses outside of Utah who are
the victims of the eastern creditors and
whose debts are made more difficult to pay
by the law which increases the value OF
gold through the depreciation of silver.
TEE HERALD believes the campaign is
nearing the end. The fight is nearly fin
ished. 1t may be doubted that it will be
closed in this Congress, for with an anti.
silver President and party in control Of
the Senate which dares not defy the mer
who furnish the funds for car
ryIng elections, it is TOO much
TO expect that q free coinage bill
can become law, although such bill will
certainly pass both houses of Congress
But the next administration will assuredly
restore silver to its rightful place. Tht
thing to do meantime Is 20 educate the peo
pie and keep them alive to their best inter
ests, SO that when they come to the poll
they will vote only for such men as viii
obey their wishes In preference to the de
mands Of the money-ienders.
