Let me commend the simplicity of the
organization Of French municipal govern
ment The people elect a council, varying
I'm numbers according to population upon
scale fixed by general law. In all but
the large places the council is elected upon
general ticket. The important cities are
usually divided into sections, or large
wards TO each Of which several councillors
are assigned, and the ward chooses its
councillors upon a general ticket The
councillors hold Office for four years, and
all retire together-being Of course eligible
for reelection. The English and Ameri
can system Of partial renewal annually or
biennially Is contrary TO French habits and
ideas
The council names the mayor, and also
his executive assistants, from its own
membership. The mayor is the presiding
officer Of the council AS well as the execu-
tive head OF the municipality. His ad-
juncts or executive assistants are desig-
mated by their fellow councillors In large
places these number ten or twelve. and
they have no executive duties except such
a. are specifically assigned TO them by the
mayor. The council holds four ordinary
sessions every year, each OF which may last
for fifteen days, while the one in which the
annual budget Is discussed may last for
six weeks. But the mayor may call extra
sessions at any time, and he is Obliged to
convene the body upon request Of a ma
jority of the councillors.
The council appoints consultative com
mittees, which meet ad libitum between
sessions, with the mayor as nominal chair
man Of each, while one OF his adjuncts Is
more usually the actual chairman. The
mayor has the appointing power and
names the minor officials OF the commune,
subject in some cases, however, to the ap-
proyal Of the project Of the department.
With the advice Of the council, aud under
the surveillance OF the departmental
Authorities, the mayor executes the bust
ness Of the commune. The council has a
large authority in the levying of taxes,
authorization OF public works, provision
for education, etc, but in most OF these
things its decisions must be approved by
the higher authorities. DIR. Albert Shaw

PATRIOTIC ACTION.

Councilman PICKARD has instituted legal
proceedings against the city government to
prevent the contamination of the outray re
which is being attempted in the giving of
valuable block-one of the peoples parks
to real estate boomer. The papers have
been served, temporary Injunction has
been granted and the day for the hearing
set. Mr.. PICKARD is entitled to the thanks
Of every bone fide citizen of Salt Lake for
this patriotic action, and we respectfully
suggest that more than the public thanks
be given. The litigation may be long and
expensive; it costs money to engage in law
suits, but whatever the cost it should be
borne by the people in equitable proportion,
and not saddled upon one man who has no
greater personal interest in the matter than
the thousands of taxpayers and residents.
Of course the council can squander none of
the peoples money in defending this suit.
The corporations attorney is on record as
declaring the councils action illegal, and it
would not do to take the public fund to de-
fend an unlawful proceeding. But the fell
low who is at the bottom of this Job, and
who is so keen to get hold of a square worth
half million dollars will venture little
cash to help along the scheme. He will
make fight, for he sees chance for big
winning and no opportunity to lose.
The citizens who are interested in saving
the Pioneer square for the use and benefit
OF the people should join hands with Mr..
PIcKARD and assist in more substanti al
manner than with words of encouragement
to make vigorous and successful fight for
the rights of the public.

Is THE city trying to put up another Job
on the county to get more money to spend
as the million dollars were spent last year
principally for nothing? The city in
weighed the county into paying a good
round price for half interest in the lot at
the southeast corner Of First South and
First East streets, the understanding be-
ing that the corporation would pay half the
cost of joint public building. Then the
city proceeded to 'blow in" the money, and
when the county wanted to go ahead with
the building the corporation had only an
empty treasury and damaged credit with
which to meet its proportion of the cost of
the structure. The result is, no public
building, and the county is out the $40, 900
or $4,000 which it invested in the belief
that the municipal corporation was
solvent and honorable. Now the city is
trying to induce the county to buy a half
interest in Washington square. and is hold
ing out as an inducement the promise that
the public building will be erected on the
block named. Having been bitten once the
county should proceed cautiously. |,
should at least hold on to its money until i,
gets value for it, and it should not let the
present city council place its clutches upon
a nickel OF the county's coin.

cal predictions ofour citizens would only
divide the friends Of liberty in Utah, and
leave the men working for the subversion
of the American principle in our territory
the rule of the maiority-with their
schemes of disfranchisement, in solid
phalanx to work outthe mischief they con-
template. 1t is not wise to divide in front
of such an. INSCRIPTIONS enemy. Better
let the division into national parties, how
ever desirable under ordinary circEm-
stances, go until our local question is set
tied; and, pending its settlement let each
of US hold out to his neighbor for the hearty
hand of friendship and unite in drawing a
line, which, like an act of oblivion, shall
bury in forgetfulness every former dis
sention. Let the names of Democrat and
be forgotten for the present;
and let none other be heard among us than
those of good citizen; an open and resolute
friend, and virtuous supporter of the
rights of mankind. Then when our local
issues are settled and those who have as
saulted the liberties of the good citizens of
Utah are driven from the field, when Utah
is made one of the sovereign states of the
union and we are brought more immedi-
ately in contact with national issues, it
will be but natural that our people will
drift into the great national parties.

there and their permanent poss essions.
Now compare the wages and homes of Park
City men taken altogether with the earn
ings and homes of city of similar size
without mines, Provo, for example, and it
will be seen that the latter is greater ad-
dition to the wealth and prosperity of the
territory than the former is. The reason
is that in the mining camp the wage-earn-
ers alone spend their money here; while in
the latter the profits of the employers, as
well as the earnings of labor, are invested
here
If the money from Park City mines had
been invested in Salt Lake city, this city
would have been as large as Denver. AS
1t is. however, the near presence of one of
the greatest mining camps in the world is
smaller addition to the prosperity of the
territory than an ordinary town of, the
same size not silver producer, Provo for
example.
We repeat that it is vast pity that the
owners of Utah mines do less for the terri
tory than their employees do; for if the
mere wages of the latter could make state
rich, then Nevada people ought to be well
off, for over 20 per cent. of her working
population are miners. This is a third
more in number than the farmers, yet the
latter class do not seem to thrive albeit the
miners are certainly numerous enough to
cause reasonable prosperity among them.
No amount of sophistry can deduce much
prosperity from any industry in which the
earnings are spent in other places. Wages
are small item in comparison with the
output of the mines. What comparison is
there between 5000, 900, the output of our
mines last year, and the wages paid to the
minersl 1t is therefore enough to make
anyone smile to read the following:
This contemporary further says: SIT is also a
fact that most Of the wealth from the rich
mines of Utah goes into the pockets Of the
stockholders in San Francisco. Denver and
other places" We presume by that our con.
temporary means the dividends.-7r Tribune
Most assuredly we mean the dividends
we mean the profits of mining above the
amount paid out, that is, the dividends paid
to the stockholders. What good is mining
In itself except for the dividends it pays.
Would it be good policy for the rich men OF
Ueah to put their money into holes in the
ground, without getting dividends in re-
turn for it: And is the only industry in
Utah that does not pay its dividends in
Utah, entitled to more praise than the
others, which pay and invest their divi-
dends right here, as well as their wages
The mad wag of the Tribune, controlled
by stockholders in Utah silver mines, who
i've IN Denver, San Francisco and New
York, and expend the profits of Utah min
ing in these places, has the effrontery to
add this insult to the people of Utah--tha'
it is enough for Utah if the wages of min.
ers are paid and expended here; and tha
our prosperity is 'tall due to mining" simply
because it is impossible for these stock
holders to pay wages elsewhere for the
working of Utah mines or they would do so.
Utah's rich mines are worth much more
to Denver and San Francisco than they are
to Utah.

BEATTY's CASE.

FRED DUBOIS has achieved temporary
victory over the President in the matter Of
the United States iudgeship for Idaho. The
President nominated JAMES H. BEATTY, in
stead of benchman of DUBOIS, who had
been recommended by the Idaho Senators.
The meanest kind of a fight was at once
made against BEATTY, who was charged
with wickedness of various degrees, politi
cal and moral. Some of the accusations
were of such character as to carry their
own refutation TO the minds of everybody
who knows Judge BEATTY, and the other
charges were creditable to the Judge, mas
much as they were simply to the effect that
he was not in sympathy with DUBOIS. A
man who stands in with FRED DUBOIS
should be looked upon with suspicion by
those who favor purity and honesty in poll
tics. Judge BEATTY went on to the capital
and made his vindication so complete that
nOtwiths landing that sentiment known as
senatorial courtesy" which says that a
nomination should not be confirmed when
the party is opposed by the Senators from
the state to which the nominee is accredited
the committee on judiciary unanimously
reported in favor of BEATTY, and
there would have followed a prompt
confirmation, had it not been for the objec-
ton Of one man. Senator FARwELL, who
will hereafter write ex- before his title,
hates HARRISON with such intensity that
he was ready to hit the President parting
lick over the shoulders of poor BEATTY
FARwELL knows absolutely nothing against
the ldahoan, but he saw in the nomination
chance to annoy HARRISON, hence he re-
fused his assent to the confirmation at a
time when single objection was effective.
THE HERALD hasn't much admiration for
Judge BEATTY, who is neither great law
yer nor strong man; but we hope Presi-
dent HARRISON viii at once appoint him to
the Office, and thus defeat the impudent
fellows who have made the dirty fight on
the gentleman. If the Senate had rejected
the nomination, the President could not
have reappointed, but the nomination was
not acted upon, aud therefore is still before
the Senate. The Senate will not convene
until December, and meantime the Presi-
dent can put his man on the bench, and
this he should do as rebuke to the DUBOIS
gang. If BEATTY shall make good record,
or rather, if he shall escape making bad
record, he will undoubtedly be confirmed
next winter in spite of DUBOIS, who may
by that time be hunting job outside of
Washington.

THE MINING SUPERSTITION.

There is a superstition among the peo-
pie of this territory that the prosperity of
the territory is due solely or largely to
mining. The superstition originally grew
out of the notion that since the product of
the mines is money, or at least money
metal, therefore were it not for the mines,
there would be no money and every one
would be poor, etc. When it became
known, however, that the money metal
taken from the mines is bodily shipped
away and the pay for it is expended in
building up Denver and San Francisco a
change in the superstition took place. 1t
was then held that though the profits of
the mines are shipped away, still the wages
of the miners are paid here and the miners
consume the farm products. thus indirectly
enriching the farmers. Thus a con-
temporary says:
In supplies, in labor of men and teams, the
Mormon population of this territory has drawn
probably 30 per cent. [of the mining product /;
that has nearly all been invested here, that is
what has converted the cattle ranges and
garden patches into the most prosperous region
IN midcontinent. 1t has all been due to mining.
-Tr6UEne.
"It has all been due to mining" 1.-THE
opinion of perhaps FIVE out of every six
men you meet; and in our salad DAYS we
ourselves believed this nonsense, for every
body else seemed to believe it.
A miner expends perhaps $500 a year In
food for himself, and possibly as much
more for his family If he has one. Of this
amount half would go for coffee, tea sugar.
syrup, fish, oysters, spices, rice, and many
other articles which are not domestic agri-
cultural products. OF the remainder the
larger part would be paid for domestic farm
products-probaoly as much as per cent
of the total yield of agriculture in this
region. And this consumption of perhaps S
per cent. OF the products OF agriculture by
the miners, who, unlike the stockholders.
spend most of their money in the territory.
is given out with entire confidence as a
proof that the wealth of Utah is call due
to miningIn
The prosperity of the territory that is
due to mining is precisely the prosperity
and number of the miners themselves. no
more and no less; and those engaged in min
ing in this territory are just six per cent. of
the working population by the census of
1880, and similar ratio may be assumed
for 1890.
The miners are entitled to the same
praise in building up the territory that
other people are; but we have so often
heard that our prosperity is sail due to
mining'' that people now begin to be-
heve 1t.
The wages of miners are practically the
only benefits to this territory Of her rich
est mines; for the stockholders mostly live
abroad and spend the earnings of the mines
abroad. The value. for instance, of the
great mines of Park City, among the rich
est mines IL the world, that accrues to this
territory is mainly the wages Of the miners
