MIDAIR SIDEWALKS.
They are Established by United
States Senator Carey.
The Building of them Temporarily
Restrained by the Marshal.
But the City Council CheerfuilY
Permits the Special Privilege.

Civ Marshal Schnitger, acting under
authority of the mayor, yesterday stopped
the work of laying the sidewalk about
the opera house block on the ground that
it was from eight to twelve and three
quarter inches above the grade.
A special meeting of the city council
was hurredly called to act upon the ques-
ton. Mayor Bresnahen presided. Coun-
cilmen Harrington. Robins. Bond, jerks,
Bristol and Hellmsn were present.
A long and rather acrimonious speech
was made by United States Senator Jos.
M. Carey, who animated that the mayor
had taken unwarranted liberties with his
property and tainted that official with the
statement that he didn't have tile courage
to have the work stopped himself but had
to send the city marshal TO do it. He ad-
mitted a violation of the city ordinance.
but said the chairman of the street and
alley committee had gwen him the right.
There was considerable jswiDg INDUCED
in on both sides, and a motion was finally
made that the city engineer be instructed
to furnish Senator Carey a temporary
grade to which to lay his sidewalk about
the opera house property. This motion
was ruled out of order by the mayor. An
appeal was taken from Ills decision, the
six councilmen present voting against
him.
The motion was then carried and the
meeting adjourned. The affair caused a
very great deal of talk in the city yester-
day and the true inwardness of it did not
seem to be generally known.

Senator Carev,s story.

Senator Carey was seen by a LEADER
reporter at his home last evening and in
reply to the question, What do you
wish to say in regard to the opera house
improvements and what about the side
walk e~mbroglio2" he answered: Tie
siding with the sidewalk authorities, in
GLIDING Mayor Bresnahen have been here
tofore a little bull headed But [ am
sure the matter will be settled satisfactory
TO all parties. 1t has been the custom of
this city, and it is, in fact the general Gus
tom in this western country for persons
wishing to build houses or change side
walks to do 80 as best suits his taste and
pocket book. That is the case with the
Delaware block and in a large number of
other cases. and now when L wish to do
the same thing that has been done in a
majority of cases behold-what a howl.
"Wtat about that rumor, Mr.. Carey.
that you were given authority to raise the
grade four inches and the claim that you
raised it something more than thlr-
teen inchesP' ''Ohl there is abso-
lutely no truth IN any such report. There
is an ordinance, passed some two months
ago, granting the city engineer the power
to grant a temporary right to parties to
raise or change tue grade in the residence
portion of the city. Under this ordinance
| have gone on and fixed the sidewalk in
front OF my building and it has only been
opposed by Mayor Bresnahen and a few
others. 1 saw Mr.. Walker and many
other persons who had been represented
to me as onpcsiag tie side-alkes Lnad
fixed it and all of them deny such
charges, but on the contrary say they
have no objections to it at all
II told the mayor and city attorney"
continued Senator Carey, ito get out a
warrant for me; that If the law was vio-
lated | " responsible for it and to let
the men | bad employed alone. But no,
they wouldn't do that. However, they
called a meeting this evening and.
think, the thing il now settled. / am
going to modify and fix up the grade in
front of the opera house so as to make it
a credit to the city and to the building
and it will not be any more inccnvenient
than is many other business blocks | could
name"
Senator Carey then branched off tell
ing what he was doing for the good OF
the city. Il will have spent fully S25, 900
on that building and its surroundings by
the time 1t is completed ard | think l
shall have it comrleted in the e sixty
DAYS. l intend to have a new stairway
put in and have some ot the rooms FIRE :
coed and in fact I shall make it as good
a building as one could find in any east

HOW ABOUT DlSFRANCHlsEMENT?

lively: How Go you stand on disfranchise

sioni 1t it to attempt to disfranchise and
outlaw the whole Mormon people!
What is it that the Liberals are urg d 70
hold together fora What is the meaning
OF the oftrepeated expression Of the Lib
eral organ that the victory is now almost
won't What victory" is thiss
Do the Liberals still assent to the follow
Tag doctrines
The Saints must either come within the law
or must find some other spot in which TO carry
out their purposes. Did they ever stop
to think that their prosecutions have not yet

step shall be TO deny the Saints the right TO

Magma ChdrfG, hence his government was
tyrannical-that is the worst thing you can
say Of government the sum of all its
sillainies-snd the people beheaded the
good king and took the control of their at
fairs, Of tn cir government, into their own
/, hands,. The goodness of the king did not
| secure good government and the people
overthrow it.
1t would be difficult to find more pure
moral, upright king than LOUIS XIV, of
France Yet all his goodness, universally
admitted BY the people, could not save
France from her saturnalia Of crime called
the French Revolution. The principle on
which the throne he occupied was founded,
was wrong; mis- government, notwithstand-
ing all his personal goodness, was oppres-
sive, vicious, and the French revolution
overthrow it
Another consideration which impels US
to the belief that principles are the proper
foundation for government rather than the
personal goodness of men, is the fact, and
it is glorious one, that while times may
change, and men may change, principles
remain the same; and are more easily per-
petuated as the foundation of government
than good men are kept in Office The
world has found that goodness is not al
ways Inherited. The story of the world
hereditary monarchs bears witness to
that, and since nothing but heaven is in
corruptible you are never sure of
your good man. Virtue is easily simulated
and nothing can be more easily duped in
this respect than the multitude. Hence it
has so frequently happened that your mild,
good prince has made cruel, vicious and
tyrannical king.
No; it is better, it is safer for liberty,
for order in government for the perpetu-
ity of institutions. that personally bad
man, but one withal pledged to principles
and bound down by constitutional limita-
tons should occasionally stand in office,
than that we should elect merely good men
to position and trust to their goodness with
out regard to their political principles to
give US good government. Goodness in
man is evanescent. Men are changeable,
corruptible: principles, Is we just now
SAID, are eternal, and the true basis Of
government; upon them let US build and
then elect to Office the best men who are
pledged to the maintenance of those prin-
ciples, and men who, as far as may be- are
the personifcation of them: but let US not
be so infatuated with mere personal good
ness as to think that that is all that Is re-
quired Of candidates for Office AS good
men as ever lived are monarchists, believe
in absolute monarchy, but we who believe
in democracy would scarcely wish to elect
them to office.

chances for conspicuous sue
cess. And yet there are among
the graduates Of West Point many bright
men who. with the proper incentive, would
climb to the topmost round Of the ladder
of fame. The training in the military
academy il well calculated to bring out
whatever genius may be latent in the
student, but the routine duties in
times Of peace do not give him scope for its
display.
From q financial point Of view the coudi-
ton is still more unsatisfactory. What may
be regarded q q fair salary for q young
lieutenant just assigned to his regiment,
becomes wholly inadequate in later years
when the increase for service is slow, pro-
6tion still slower, and the changes Of sta
ton, especially to a married man, an irk-
some tax. Compare number Of Harvard
men with the same number Of West Point
ers and the former, while not educated
like the latter at the expense OF the gov
eminent, nor yet assured Of position i'm
mediately upon graduation, will still aver
age niger in what is called the success of
life than the latter.
Lieutenant SWIFT, though not q West
Pointer, was an electrician before he en-
tered the army, resolving salary Uf $50
month. Had he pursued his occupation,
one, by the way, affording every prospect
for advance, he might be to-day a man Of
note, for he possessed great ability in that
line. At any rate, he would not be in
more desperate plight than he is, culprit
before the military authorities and liable at
the age Of fifty to be thrown with large
family upon the world. And his case is but
a sample of many others.
