PROTESTS AGAINST the street sprinkling
arrangement as proposed by the, council,
are being numerously signed and it will not
be surprising if the scheme shall be de-
feated. 1t is not that the property-uwners
object to the sprlnkling or to the paying for
it, but they are opposed 10 the unfair and
unreasonable plan which the council has
devised. The benefits from the sprinkline
are confined largely to two or three streets
in the business centre of the city, yet prop
eruy-owners here have to pay no more per
loot frontage than does the owner of a
vacant lot mile and half distant. If the
sprinkling is to be carried into the suburbs
then the tax should be graded according to
the benefits enjoyed. 1t is impossible to
convince the occupant Of garden lot a mile
from the business centre that he gets as
much good from the sprinkling cart rushing
past his house two or three times day as
does the dry goods merchant, the dust in
front of whose fifty foot store is kept nicely
wet down day and night, and yet the mer

AN OBSERVING JAP.

1t appears to be plain even to Japanese
prince but thirty years old that our unre-
strlcted system of immigration is suicidal
to the welfare of our country. Prince
GANAsI, formerly an attache of the Japan
csc legation at Washington, now an appli-
cant for admission to the Johns Hopkins
university at Baltimore, with a view to
taking special course in history and poll
tics, made number of wise observations
in respect to the matter of immigration.
In the course of his remarks, he said:
Japan is as different from the states as blacl,
is from white. In every point, every custom.
habit and trait we differ. Some differences are
in your favor, Others in ours. True, our country
IS narrow, to a certain extent biased and very
conservative, but it is equally true that your in
stltutions and laws are painfully new, crude
and, in some cases, suicidal to your own inter
ests. Take for instance the question of uure
stricted immigration. Every enlightened and
civilized power, except the United States, sees
that you are inviting your own ruin, reducing
the standard of lie and comfort and making
your fair land the cYdrg5a, or, to translate. the
Straightforward of Russas scum, Italv's filth
and Ireland's poverty. The government is cut
ting down the wages of its own workmen when
it admits by the thousand men and women of a
low caste who will work from daylight till dark
for a mere song-say IS cents day.
Prince GANAsI is said to be bright. in
telligent young fellow, very well read, has
travelled extensively through every country
in Europe, in Africa, Siberia and nearly
every state in the union. His clear cut
observations in respect to our loose immi-
grafton laws bear out his reputation for
quick intelligence. His criticism of our
customs did not stop with our immigration.
but extended even to the subject of mar
riage, of which he said:
Your marriage laws are loose but I don't
think the question is of such grave import as
the magazines make it out to be. Your people
marry in too much of hurry. They mix bust
ness principles with their love affairs. In japan
the principle underlying our marital relation is
that the affection which makes marriage happv
is not the love which precedes the union, but
the respect, esteem and sense of mutual help
fulness which arises afterward.

criticism is unjust or inaccuratel

ITALY'S DILEMMA.

Baron FAyA who, under the order of his
government, left the United States as
Italy's representative at our capital, is re-
ported through the dispatches in respect to
the New Orleans affair as expressing the
belief that there is no way out of the stu
alton, as the federal government has no
power to give Italy the satisfaction de-
manded. That will be the conclusion that
Baron FAvA's government will come to be-
fore they are through with this affair, and
that being true there is considerable humil
iation before Italy, as the hasty action of
her King and minister has made her appear
ridiculous in the eyes of the
whole world. Italy's whole course IL
Illustrates the old truism that wisdom comes
only after consideration. There was in
sufficient thought given to this subject bv
those at the head of Italian affairs. Thew
were acting from impulse, not from reason.
They made demands before they clearly
ascertained whether there were inst
grounds on which to base them, and with
out considering whether it was within the
power of our government to grant what
was demanded. 1t does not help matters to
sheer at our form of government; that
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1891-04-25

only exposes the ignorance or stupidity of
the treaty making power of Italy. Our
constitution is the same now that 1t was
when the treaty with Italy was formed, and
it is but reasonable to suppose that Italian
statesmen knew that the power of our gov
eminent was limited by our constitution,
that where that gave authority it could act,
where it conferred none, government was
powerless. 1t is but fair to presume that
the contracting powers understood each
other as to their ability to fulfill the en-
gagements entered into, yet Italy was so
unw!se as to make demands which fair
understanding of our complex form of gov
eminent ought to have taught them that it
was impossible for the executive of our
government to grant. Baron FAvA is right;
there is no way out of it. The only alterna-
tive before Italy is to swallow her disgust
at her hasty action, send back her minister
to Washington, letting things take their
course through the local courts at New
Orleans, and the meantime make herself
busy In trying to forget that her min
lister was recalled; or, she may call
home her whole legation, break off all
treaty obligations and sullenly brood on the
banks Of yellow Tibeg over the affair and
deeply curse such an inconvenient thing as
constitution which stands between the
representatives of power and the arbitrary
exercise of it. In either event we shall be
happy, under our form of government,
though deploring the sad occurrence at
New Orleans. 1t is neither open to excuse
nor paliation. 1t was mobocracy. The peo-
pie were in that condition where they con-
sidered that they had to go outside of the
law to secure juStice-one of the most de-
plorable conditions society can get into
one OF the most fatal menaces to civil gov
errment But the people did it, and it
may be frankly admitted that since
the people formed the mob or ap-
plauded its terrible work there
IS small prospect of the leaders being
brought to condign punishment. There it
IS, not to be excused, yet incapable of be-
ing undone; and if the civil authorities
apply the forces of the law and these fail
to execute Judgment in righteousness
what is to be dones Why, we have reached
the limit to which we can go, and the i'm
perfection of human governments stands
exposed before US, and men are compelled
to await the workings of that other and
better system of government which will
yet satisfy the demands of stern justice.
Ii Italy is unwilling to be Statistic by these
considerations, if her pride is wounded and
her national honor insulted as she thinks.
and concludes to take vengeance in her
own hands, she of course, may declare
war, and we must meet the issue as best
we may.

Was there Doodle in the gravel pit?
From the action of the Committee on
Highways 1t would seem not, or at least,
the committee knows nothing OF it.
The committee met last night, and
brought up this question after several
street matters had been considered. The
committee IL made up as follows Coun-
Gilman White, Chairman; Councilmen
Anderton and Taylor, and Alderman
Saunders. Taylor was absent.
Chairman White said he was right up in
arms about the matter. He had learned
enough about it, and II was poor return
for hard, honest work nights. Alderman
White seems to come in for a share too.
Alderman SAUNDERS am in favor OF a
most rigid examination.
Saunders-This committee doesn't want
to go out of Office with any suspicion
upon it.
Alderman White was writing in the
next room and the Chairman asked him il
he had anything to say.
Alderman White-In just a minute.
Chairman Whitehall I've got out Of
this is an aching head.
Saunders-Aching bones for me.
At this point Alderman White repeated
to him the substance OF the remarks.
Alderman White-Has the Mayor called
another meeting for tomorrow night?
Anderton-I havnt received any notice.
Alderman White said the action Of the
Mayor was somewhat strange, and con-
continued:
at is my purpose to introduce a reso-
resolution i'm the Board OF Alderman to-
morrow night, asking for a sweeping
investigation. There have been rumors
of doodle being received, and these stories
have been circulated for political effect,
and the men who have been circulating
them have done il SO ingeniously, and
what has been written has been so indirect
that nothing tangible has been able
to be got at. propose to make the reso-
luton broad enough so that any and
every citizen may come and tell what he
or they know. hope the committee will
rchcarse in detail the entire travel of the
business from the beginning to the present
time. ! propose, so far as amiconcerned,
to have the investigation right
of in justice To myself and in
justice to the Republican party, and to
begin it either on Thursday or Friday. /
have finally been able to get hold of some
direct charges, and the persons who have
made them will be summoned before the
Investigating committee"
IL was then voted that Mr. Saunders
request the Mayor to call a meeting OF the
Common Council for tonight, and il he
refuses to do so, to present the matter to
the Board of Aldermen.
The committee then adjourned.

ST PETERSBURG, Nov. 1.-THE spirit
OF characterization among the people in
the distressed districts is becoming SO in
tense that IL Is feared serious troubles will
result, eliminating in an open revolt of
the peasantry early in the winter. The
relations existing between land owners
and peasants are 30 strained that an out

landlords TO evict them. even under an
order OF law. and threaten TO burn the
land owners granaries aud residences.
Throughout Lthuania aud Poland the

drawn from tradesmen and smaller farm
ers, side with the tenants
The leading government officials pro-
pose to send imperial commissioners TO the
disturbed provinces vested with supreme
power, and to supersede, il necessary, gov
ernors and other officials found unable to
cope with abuses.
The corruption prevailing among ofli
cials aggravates the discomfort of the
people. 1t has just been discovered that the
governor OF one province severely stricken
with famine has been realizing large
profits by reselling grain purchased on
government credit.

the Matter on Hand.

Alderman Saunders of the Joint stand
ing Committee on Highways waited on
Mayor Goodwin this morning, in obedi-
ence TO a resolution passed by that COM
mittee last evening, and asked him to call
a special meeting of the Common Council
for this evening in order that a joint
special committee OF investigation on the
proposed gravel pit purchase could be APP
pointed.
Mayor Goodwin, after hearing what
Alderman Saunders had to say, declined to
call the meeting of the Council, saying
chat such a course was entirely unpre-
cedented, and that charges complained
about were only street talk, vague rumors,
and such as that, and he did not feel like
recognizing them officially and giving
them standing which they did not at
present possess.
The Board OF Aldermen will now have
TO undertake the investigation alone.

Mary McAIeer Meets Death On the Rail
Near woodlawn.
Last evening the Old Colony train from
Boston that leaves this city at $40 struck
a woman, who was crossing the tracks
near the works OF the Narragansett Ma
chine Company, instantly killing her.
The train was brought to standstill
and the police and Medical Examiner
Kelliher notified. After the remains had
been examined by DR.. Kelliher they were
placed in the ambulance and conveyed to
the undertaking rooms of Crane a Burns
by Officer Tompkins.
She was identified as Mary McAleer of
this city. She is the wife of Owen
McAleer and has son Charles who works
for Olney & Payne Bros. and a daughter
who is i'm Boston. She is about 60 years
for David Murphy OF East avenue.
The locomotive mangled the body
terribly. The skull was crushed into a
mass and leg and arm broken besides
other cuts and bruises.
The accident happened as a great many
others have. She had been visiting a
friend who lives opposite the Narragansett
Machine Company's works and was re-
turning across the tracks when she saw
the hourly approaching from Providence
and stepped onto the next track only to
be run down by the Old Colony train
coming in the opposite direction. There
are four main tracks at that point besides
side tracks and she was perhaps be-
