CINCHING IHE CLERKS.

HERALD readers will remember that in
open violation of the civil service law, and
with the K nowledge if not the sanction of
the national administration, the Republi-
can campaign committee assessed the
clerks in the New York custom house in
the interest of tho MCKINLEY campaign,
collecting several hundred dollars. The
newspapers got hold of the business and so
did Commissioner ROOSEVELT, and while
the former exposed the affair the latter set
out to get the scalps of the federal officials
who participated in or winked at the rob
berry. The result of the exposure is now
said to be that the money has been
returned to the clerks, but with the return
is an intimation that if tie contributors
want to "voluntarily'' send it back to the
committee they can do so. no legal obsta-
cles being thrown in the way. OF course
the great majority of the clerks will give
back the cash and see that they get proper
credit for it, because they will know that
failure to do so will be equivalent to the
tender of their designations,
The desperation of the Republican lead
ers in Ohio is further illustrated by their
appeals for funds. Some tina ago the
agent of the Ohio committee in Washing
ton sent circular TO the department
clerks, indirectly intimating that a
failure to respond literally might
be attended by consequences serious
10 themselves. 1t seems that the draft
upon the poor fellows salaries did not pro
duce all the money required by the rnsjor,
and now the aforementioned agent has is
sued al her circular in which ne makes
his threats more definite. He commands
the clerks, this time, TO call in person at
the Office of certain attorneys and says:
The necessity of electing Major MCKINLEY
| By decisive ma jority on the issue Joined is
| imperative. The election of a Republican
| legislature is of still greater importance Sc

BE JUST.

The HERALD thinks Mr.. ARTHUR STAY
NEH, whose communication appeared in
Fridays HERALD, is right in entering q
protest against what appears to be an at
tempt to belittle him and his efforts in con :
nection with the sugar industry. We don't
know what his connection with the works
at American Fork was or is, nor how much
or little he had to do with the establishment
of that enterprise; but everybody who has
resided in this country for the past twelve
or fifteen years knows that Mr.. STAYNER
has been an indefatigab.e worker in the
cause Of tie sugar industry. His
time and means have been alto
gether devoted to that cause, and we
are of the opinion that the Inauguration Of
the enterprise was greatly fastened by his
persistent and unceasing efforts. THE
HERALD is not aware that anybody is in,
tentionally detraciing from the credit G ue
to MIR. STAYNER, but it sometime, looks a:
if this were being done, aud if this be the
case we suggest that the effort should
cease as in the light of current history no
body can afford TO say in this community
that the gentleman named has not beer
foremost in seeking the establishment o
what promises to be one of the most i'm
portant industries of the territory.

LOYAL VOLUNTEERS.

Recently a society was organized in
Washington which has for its object. &C
cording to circular, "to obtain such a
revision of the pension laws as will serve
to protect the honor of all who volunteered
for the defence of the union, as we'll as to
provide for the necessities of soldiers and
sailors who served that cause during the
war of 1896" Those soldiers who have
framed it's constitution hold that "the
granting of pensions should be based solely
upon impairment of earning capacity
The idea, they say, THAT pensions are
intended to constitute a payment for the
performance of patriotic duty has tended
to degrade the spirit of loyalty, and
has rendered such payment mark
of disgrace, rather than badge of honor. y
The memb ership is to be made up, first. 'oi
those honorably discharged soldiers and
sailors who once volunteered to rescue the
nation from destruction by force, and are
now willing to respond to the same feeling
of loyalty, and save the nation from de
struction by dishonesty" To thesSare to
be added the wives or widows or near
relatives of such men, the citizen en-
ployees of the government during the war,

TELL-TALE DEVICES.

Contrivances to see that employed peo-
pie do their duty honestly are common, and
are increasing in number, but American
genius, notwithstanding the almost uni
versal love Of leisure, finds time to circum-
vent them in most instances. There are
number of devices to require by indicators
a Waterman in big building to make reg
ular rounds at night, and electricity has
been brought into requisition to foil all
attempts to beat them. Thus there is a
safety lock clock, the dial Of which is out
of the watchman's sight, that records any
attempt to open it. To comparatively
new continuance, by which the heat of q
fire will ring alarm bells, there has lately
been added device that turns on
showers of water from storage
tanks variously located. Brokers use 8
time stamp to fix to minute the time OF
receiving orders to buy or sell. Saloons
and retail establishments generally have
cash registers, which keep tab on the
amounts taken in. Divers have been the
inventions of registers and bell punches
for street cars. A newspaper man has
contrived an apparatus by which sales
man IN store or employee of a factory
makes a record of his time when he enters
or goes out. Printing machines have auto
matte methods of counting the papers as
they fall from the press. The burglar
alarm is an electric wire fastened to desks
drawers and windows, or adjusted to stair
cases, by which the night prowler give.
notice of his presence.
There is one party that Yankee talen

ifornia. 1t has generally been conceded
that the Union Pacific made a mistake
when it built the Oregon Short Line in
stead of going to the Coast south of the
Central Pacific. 1t was another mistake
to discon tiuue the Phoebe extension from
Milford, which in the course Of year or
two would naturally have been continued
to Los Angeles. Both these blunders will
be emphasized if the Rio Grande Western
and the Los Angeles parties shall join issue
and construct the proposed line.
All the people hereabouts will await in
eagerness further announcements concern
ing the project. and if those announce
ments shall be to the effect that the scheme
will be carried out, all that portion OF Utah
south of Ogden will indulge in much re-
joicing.

being the motive, and it is to be regretted
that too many of the soldiers have been
keen to take advantage of the demagogy of
one party aud the cowardice of the other,
the selfshness of these soldiers bringin e
the patriotic profession almost into con-
tempt.
If the Society of Loyal Volunteers" can,
check the evils which have grown up under
pension system not based on the correct
principle of reward for merit. it will not
merely save money now worse than thrown
away, but will relieve honorable soldiers
who are deserving of the republics gener-
osity Of the stigma of being mercenary
under which they are bound to rest if our
present pension system shall continue.
