BRITISH RETALIATION.

The statement is frequently made that
the British people are great sympathizers
with the American Democracy, and this is
used prejudiciously against the latter, as
though indicating that the Democracy must
be wrong. 1t is no doubt true that large
portion of the people Of England, in conse-
quence of their attitude as to free trade,
are opposed to the protective and prohibi-
ton policies of the Republican party. No
doubt, also, our high tariff has had deleter-
ious effects upon several English industries
which formerly found a market here. But
there is point which seems to have been
important one to the people
on both sides Of the Atlantic.
1t is that there is protection or retaliat-
DRY party in Great Britain. These call
themselves "fair traders" in contrsdistinc-
ton to free traders, and they would rejoice
greatly to see q reverse this fall of the
great revenue reform victory Of last No
vember In the United Stater. Such q re-
suit would vastly aid the high tariff party
of England. They would be-especially
the landowners would be-dellghted to
have prete4t Tor leVylng nigga import
duties on American wheat, rye and corn,
and on farm products 10 general. Up to the
present time the free traders have been
able to hold the fair traders In check upon
the tradition and established policy of Great
Britain, but the effects of the MCKINLEY
tariff, which has driven the products of
foreign looms and factories away from our
shores, are operating towards change,
and it would not be surprising should this
latest revised tariff be continued, if con-
Siderable revolution with regard to COM
mercial relations with the United States
were to result. At present tobacco, which
pays an average Of 81 a pound, is about the
only American article taxed at the British
customs houses. But if JOHN BULL ever
geIs to work adding to the list, some very
startling consequences are likely to ensue

GERMAN DAY.

We are glad our German residents are
going to follow the custom inaugurated a
few years ago. of giving up one day year
to the joyful commemoration of the arrival
Of their countrymen in America more than
two hundred years ago. We are glad be-
cause it tells Of worthy pride in the career
and achievements in the new world of q
race which has been prominent and pro-
gressive here IS everywhere that 1t has set
its foot. From century before the found
ing Of the republic, when upon the invita-
ton Of WILLIAM PENN they established
that important adjunct of Philadelphia
Germantown-the Germans have always
been welcome to America; no foreigners
more so. This has been because those who
came were largely imbued with the ideas
and ambitions actuating Americans, and
because they have readily assimilated with
the people Of the country, becoming Ameri
cans in every sense. Germans certainly
have the right to be proud of their history
here, and it does them credit when they
commemorate their coming as they will do
next Monday-German day.
While the celebration will be new to this
city we understand it will be one worthy
our enterprising German residents. A
somewhat elaborate programme is being
intellectual and social ceremonies, and we
all hope the inauguration of this annual
celebration will be eminently successful.

AS 1T AFFECTS FRANCE.

Curiosity is still lively to know what is
thought abroad of the operations of the
MCKINLEY tariff act. Foreign dispatches
continue to give reports of what is said
about it by leading manufacturers A cor
respondent in France telegraphs that the
consequences predicted were over -esti-
mated and that French commerce is hope
full. NJ. CoURDELET,- a member of the
Paris chamber of commerce. the head of a
great exporting business with the United
States, and a delegate to the Chi cago
Worlds fair. SAID: 1.-The fact is that the
original prohibitory tariffs had already
done US so much harm that MCKINLEY was
only killing the skin. Those products that
survive the original tariffs will doubtless
survive the MCKINLEY bill, and the increase
in duties ,ciu hurt the consumer only. It is
true we send no more cotton stuffs to the
United States, but our cambrics will
always find customers, and our cretonues
will always be in demand. With regard to
articles of luxury such as pictures, bronzes
and marbles, American art lovers will not
be deferred from buying goods by the fact
that they will have to pay a few dollars
more. Business, however, will be more
difficult, owing chiefly to the fact that
French firms now refuse fatty to send
samples Of their manufactures to the
United States, and will entertain only such
transactions as bid fair to yield important
profits, as the French do not desire to see
their productions copied by American man.

flace from the Second to the First precinct.
When the laborer said that he had boarded
with his present landlord many months
and had always been treated well, the boss
said that made no difference; that the
registration for the February cleo
ton would soon be made, and mas
much as the Liberals had more voters in
the Second precinct than they needed and
not enough in some of the others, the
workmen would have to reside in those
districts where their votes would be most
needed. The boss went so far as to tell the
man where he would be boarded in the
paying in the Second.
We have also heard of a similar case,
where a man in the employ of the
city, and residing in the Fourth
precinct, announced his intention of NOV
ine into another precinct when the boss
told him to stay where he was until after
the election, and that in few days num-
Der of boarders would be sent to him.
These cases would indicate colonization
having alresdy begun. The First precinc:
is doubtful, owing to the detection from
the Liberal party to the Democracy and the
popular discomfort down that way with
Liberal rule, the voters being able to dis
cover no other result from the change
of administration than 400 per
cent increase Of their taxes. II
is generally believed that If the
election were held to-day the Democrats
would carry the ward. The result in Feb
ruary will of course depend upon the sue
cess of the colonization scheme, which is
said to be engineered by city officials.
The Fourth municipal ward is salts
factorily Democratic and will continue SO
if no unfair advantage shall be taken; but
If Liberal boarding houses are to be estab-
lished there and hobos quartered therein
until after election day the Dem ocratic
majority may be overcome and that ward
turned over to the enemy.
1t is to be hoped that in making the new
registration Colonel SELLS will insist that
the residence address Of every person de-
handing the privilege Of voting shall be
noted on the list with the name. This car
work no hardship on individuals and car
injure no party which wants an homes
election, while the giving Of the addres.
will materially help to detect fraud ans
prevent repeating.

KING-KILLING.

The Emperor Of Austria is trying to
laugh over the attempted destruction of
the train on which he was travelling, and to
convey the impression that little signif-
canoe is attached to the incident. 1t is
well enough to treat the matter thus airily,
but we venture the assertion that in his
mind his majesty is not easy. In his heart
there is more fear than he would like to
confess. If FRANCIS JOSEPH, who is neither
better nor worse than his brother mon
archs, and whose government is quite as
considerate as others of the rights of sub
iects, can read anything in the signs of the
times and knows aught Of the disposition
of the masses, he must tremble both for
himself and his throne. 1t is not that the
people do not like him as man; they are
opposed to the system of government
represented in his person. The attempt
| upon his life was an attack upon the throne
| OF Austria, Just as most of the efforts
directed against the Gar are really aimed
| at the empire.
1t doesn't require great foresight to see
that one of these days there will be no such
thing on this earth as a monarchy, no
such thing as an absolute ruler of a
nation who holds Office and Yields power
| by inheritance and wears the ermine by So
called divine right. Progress toward the
overturning of all thrones has been rapid
during the present generation, and the
movement grows swifter as it advances.
Monarchs may notrealize this to the full ex
tent, but they all know something of it.,
and they are all schemiug to keep back the
storm just as long as possible; they are all
yielding little all the time in the hope of
pacifying and contenting the people, while
the latter retain all they get and keep on
reaching out for more. Democracy is as
serting Itself everywhere, and it will no,
rest until it has established the truth and
made it living fact that birth gives no mar
preference. Disbursements may result
from bloodless revolutions, as in the case Of
Dom PEDRO, or it may be necessary tt
blow up railway trains and royal palaces
it will depend largely upon the rulers them
selves how they step down, but go they
all must. Thursdays failure to make shor
work of the Austrian Emperor was warn
ing of what will be persisted in just 30 Ions
as there are emperors, kings and heredi
tary rulers. The people will be goyerenet
by those of their own selection.

FRED DOUGLASS, late minister to Hayti
has been giving away state secrets to the
North american Reuie,c, for which magazine
he has written an article about the diplo
matte negotiations for coaling station in
that country, and justifies himself by re-
fering to the course pursued towards him.
This reminds us of story told by COUGH,
the temperance lecturer. A harvest hand
was going home tired and reflective with
his pitchfork on his shoulder, when q
savage dog ran up to him, whereupon the
man thrust the pitchfork into the dogs

reply was, Why didn't he come at me

EDITOR SLACK, of the Cheyenne Sun,
who was o delegate TO the Irrigation con-
gress, has devoted much space in his paper
TO the proceedings of the late congress. In
summing up his account OF the gathering,
he thus refers to an incident which brought
blush to the cheek of every Utah delegate
and caused many of our visitors to feel
indignant that they should have come here
70 be needlessly insulted:
The only unpleasant occurrence during the
session was an outbreak Of temper on the part
OF Governor THOMAS, IN which he accused the
California delegation of trying TO run the con-
gress. He referred more especially to Mr.
IRISH, whose position as chairman OF the COM
nirtee OF resolutions forced him 10 the front

the duty with more zeal than some persons
would deem necessary, he did so with signal

OUR CoxMERCE ON THE SEAS.

In recent interview Secretary FOSTER
Of the treasury department estimated that
the amount of goods smuggled into the
United States was about SIS, 000, 900 year,
which means loss of tariff revenue under
the present rates Of s15,00o,00o or $40, ooo,
900 annually. The business of the SNUG
gler is with the kind Of foreign goods which
gives him the most compensation for the
pirstical risk he takes. Thus the tendency
of high tariffs is not only to iniure honest
trade, but to afford innumerable tempta-
tons to dishonesty on the part of traders
and officials
A great part of what this country should
receive is lost markedly by the employment
Of foreign bottoms to carry American
freight. During the last year the balance
of exports, exclusive of specie, amounted
TO S112, 25S, S23. This enormous amount of
commodities was carried across the ocean,
over four-fifths of it, in foreign
vessels OF course they made
US pay good round price for
it, estimated by scores of millions. If we
had ships of our own to carry our COM
merce we would have all this carrying
money, AuO keep III AZ EOue,
In talk with q New York Herald re-
porter, the substance of which was tele-
graphed to that journal last Sunday, a
prominent Englishmau said:
1 remember that when L went TO the Medit-
erranean as boy and 1 am now seventy-four
years old found the American flag flying in
every port and American vessels were to be
met with all the world over. But all that has
been changed by the high tariff on ships and on
materials that 60 10 make ship. American
ships have been driven from the waters.
That was thirty or more years ago, be.
fore the accession of the Republican party
to power. The proud consciousness that
American sails whitened every sea was a
legacy the Democracy left when its star
went down in the election of 1860. How
has Republicanism managed the trusts In
1860 there were 34S vessels bearing
tonnage of $4,000 tons built on
the New England coast; in 1890 only
LA, bearing tonnage of 10000 tons
a decline Of one-half in the number and
two-t thirds in the capacity. In 1860 we had
2, 1916, 900 tons of shipping engaged in the
foreign trade; in 1890, only 999, 000-a fall
|
half the tonnage entered at our seaports was
American; in 1890, one ton out Of every
four. In 1860 we had ships running to ant
from Europe; now we have none. Oul
ambassadors going to the governments
where they are accredited must travel il
foreign vessels.
When the Republican policy became th'
law Of the land our shipping on the higl
seas began to perish, and it continued Il
decay till now we have to hire foreigner
to carry our commerce and pay them $780,
: 600, 900 year or more for their work. Be

THE SCHOOL BONDS.

At its meeting on Thursday evening the
school board authorized the borrowing Of
more money with which to pay the current
expenses of the schools. OF course this
was necessary, IS the schools must be kept
open, and doubtless 1t is necessary to pay
the high interest rate of 10 aper cent. per
annum. The taxes will soon be coming in,
when the boards indebtedness can be
liquldsted and matters run along smoothly
for a time, so far as the current bills are
concerned.
But how about the bonds which the
people voted last summer for the pur-
chase of sites and the erection Of school
buildingsl AS we understand it these
bonds remain in the treasury, and they are
likely to stay there indefinitely. They are
per cent bonds and ordinarily, or if
issued by an eastern city, might be dis
posed of, but we might as well be frank
and say what is the truth, that we do not
believe the bonds can be sold. Parties may
take some of them in exchange for school
sites, but it is said that where these tenders
have been made the price asked for the
real estate is considerably above what
would be accepted in cash. 1t is almost
idle to attempt to dispose OF the bonds here
even if it were desirable that our own peo-
pie should hold them. The city banks all
give more for the use of money than
the holders of these bonds would receive.
The savings bank rate is 5 per cent,
compounded quarterly, whereas the bonds
pay but per cent, computed annually.
Money in the savings bank is practically at
the command of the owner, and can be
drawn for use to better advantage should
the opportunity offer; but money in the
bond is available only in the event of abil-
ity to sell. The bonds must bs disposed of
If at all, in other markets, ana the financial
condition of the country makes improbable
the early sale of per cent western schoo
bonds.
What we are getting at is this: Would i
not be better for the board to increase tn,
rate Of interest to 6 per cents BY do
ing this tie bonds could be readily
placed, right here at home if no
abroad; the money which is needed 81
much for the immediate erection of schoo
houses could be had st once, and the board
would not be under the necessity of paying
high rates of interest for temporary loans
1t is plain enough that If the school house
Of which the community stands in sucl
need are to be delayed until the 5 per cent
bonds have been sold az psr-and to sci
them for less than face value would be ba
policy and bad inancIering-s good deal o
inconvenience must be endured and muc
public cash will be paid out for interest o.
borrowed money. In acting in this matte
the school board may with propriety tax
into account the fact that the credit of Sal
Lake City is not what it once was. Their
was a time when Salt Lake bonds wer
eagerly taken by local and foreign banks
and held as an investment; but that tim
has passed. We have been borrowing s
much money lstterly that while fnsncis
institutions may not question our ability I
pay, they are not keen to get hold of GU
obligations.

which caused the ire Of Governor THOMAS was
