INTERSTATE COMMERCE. LAW.

Delegate MILLER, of Nebraska, intro
duced a resolution in the Mississippi
congress on Tuesday, expressing the
opinion that most of the national laws
that had been enacted for the regulation of
interstate commerce had been but a
hindrance and should be repealed. Could
not the gentleman have used the word "all'
instead of most" and better stated the
cases There are n the books good many
enactments which reflect discr edit upon
the intelligence of those who framed them,
but there are mighty few Of those laws
which come nearer TO being worthless than
the inter state commerce act which its
trainers assumed to be in the interest of
the people. If the railway companies had
had the making of the law it is doubtful If
they would have been so lenient
with themselves as Congress has been,
and it is absolutely certain that
they would have enforced the law
against each other with greater
strictness than the government has ever
thought of applying. We occasionally hear
lawyers in court tell of statutes through
which they can drive coach and four"
and this seems to be one of them. The
three principal objects of the law were to
prevent pooling on the part of railways, to
prevent discrimination against localities
and to prevent favoritism towards indi-
viduals, 1t may be questioned that one of
these objects has been achieved except,
perhaps, in isolated instances The pool
may not be as open and impudent as for
merly, but who doubts that it exists in
fact? Every little while the traffic associ-
atious get together and apportion business
among the competing" lines, based upon
the traffic of each for some stated period,
Little attention has ever been paid to the
''long and short haul" provision, the COM
missioners to enforce the law having prac-
tlcally ruled in favor of the disregard of
the clause. And as for discrimination, it Is
the general complaint throughout the inte-
]. rior west, especially that part of the west
between the eastern slope of the Rocky
mountains and the Sierras. Salt Lake has
a standing protest on this score, and fire.
quent efforts are put forth to unite our
merchants and business men in a combina
ton to fight the discrimination which de-
prives the city of its legitimate market.
Mr.. MILLER was right in denouncing the
Interstate commerce laws, and the con-
vention will do right in appealing to Con-
gress to repeal those laws and enact others
which will do what these have failed to
mplish-compel railways to treat all
patrons alike and be equally fair 10 all
communities.

soMEMHAT PERSONAL

Among other announcements following
the change IN proprietorship of THE
HERALD last summer, was the promise that
the paper would be improved and made
stronger in all It's departments. The
public cheerfully bears witness that the
promise has been literally fulfilled, THE
HERALD being much better newspaper
than il was before the change took place.
Not the least marked of the improvements
has been seen on the editorial page In
looking about for editorial assistance the
company was placed in communica
ton with Colonel WILLIAM HYDE,
of st. Louis, a gentleman who had
long ago achieved a national reputation as
brilliant and vigorous journalist, as editor
OF that sturdy Democratic newspaper, the
Missouri Republican, The colonel was in
vited TO come to Utah, and for three months
past he has been on the stsff of this paper.
We are now pleased to aunounc e-and we
know the public will share in the pleasure
that arrangements have been made by
which Colonel HYDE becomes permanently
connected with The HERALD as one of the
editors, and hereafter the paper viii have
pen and able direction in its guidance and
in teaching and preaching the grand
principles Of Democracy, the glorious
gospel of self government Not only is his
Democracy of the broadest and purest but
he is in love with Utah and is in full sym
patty and accord with the movement
recently inaugurated for overcoming the
abnormal condition of things which has Sc
long existed here and for elevating the ter
ritory to its rightful position in the family
Of American commonwealth making VI
the federal union.
The gentleman is so well known both in
and out of journalistic circles thai

off OF one-ffth the amount OF the taxes Will
afford 10 our own citizens the effect OF the
reduction will be to inspire in others the
feeling that Salt Lake is not to be tax
burdened city. The uuexampled increase
of taxes in 1890 astouuded people, and
while it drove many of our citizens to sell
their property and go beyond the corporate
lines to live it checked buying on the part
of newcomers. Men felt that they could
not run the risk OF having to pay enormous
taxes on non-productive land until such
time as they might find customers. The
tax made property owning burden instead
of matter of profit We have been told
of some instances where valuable property
was leased at lemunerative rentals few
years ago, but under the increased valua-
lions did not pay the taxes.
II the lower taxes do not yield enough
revenue to carry on the municipal govern
ment in the present style the principle of
economy must be applied by the city
fathers, the expenses being cut down 10

reasonable figure, and the collector does

THE TAX MATTER.

The decision of the city assessor and col
lector not to appeal the tax case, but to sub.
NIT to the ruling of the chief Justice sus-
tanning the action of the city council in de-
claring 20 por cent reduction of the assess
ments of real estate and improvements. was
wise on the part of the official referred to.
1t will avoid much litigation and quiet an ,
amount OF threatened trouble. If he had
persisted in his efforts to collect the ful
amount Of the tax as assessed three
fourths OF all the real estate owners
would have been involved in law
suits with the collector, much money would
have been paid for lawyers and court
fees, and possibly the taxes might have
been tied up to such an extent as to seri-
ously cripple the corporation. However.
the trouble has been happily avoided
Within few days it is probable that prop
erty- owners will receive notices giving the
amount of their taxes; or, if the notices do
not come, it will be an easy matter to com
pute the reduction by reference to the fig
ures in the old notices.
The HERALD believes this reduction
will have beneficial effect. 1t
will certainly relieve property
owners, far too many of whom
it would have distressed to raise the money.
But outside the relief which the knocking

RAINCoMPELLER MELBOURNE has been

papers of that city say. During Wednesday,
Thursday and Friday of last week the indi-

to be seen, but at 80 the rain was pouring
down In torrents while the thunder rosred
and the wind blew. Half an hour later the
SKY was again clear, and during the storm
the barometer had shown no change. The

GRANT THE PETITION.

Whether or not Colonel MURRAY has se-
cured the money with which to construct
and equip railway to Deep Greek, he talks
like man who is confident Of success in
the enterprise. Nor does he come pleading
and begging for assistance. He asks sim
ply what the past history of the corporation
gives him the right to expect will be cheer
fully granted, namely: the right Of way
into and out of the city. Salt Lake has
ever been generous in such matters, from
the time the old Utah Central entered the
town more than twenty years ago,
down to the present. The policy has been
to encourage railroad building, and induce
as many roads as possible to centre here
1t has been wise and progressive policy,
and while this liberality may, in some in
stances, have affected individual property
owners lniuriously, the public generally
has reapeu the advantage. The HERALD
can discover no reason why change
should be inaugurated now. If it were
wise and proper-as it certainly was-fve,
ten and twenty years ago to grant raj !
roads the right of way along GER
tain streets, it is right now and
will be right until the community
decides that it has enough railways.
The thing that the council should guard
against is the permitting of the roads to
come nearer TO the centre of the CITY. The
lines should be kept together as nearly as
may be. and no more streets be given up to
tracks than is absolutely necessary.
If Colonel MURRAY shall make the show
ing to the council which he claimed ability
to make on Tuesday evening, TIE HERALD
hopes the right of way which he requires
will be promptly granted subject only to
such proper restrictions as have been i'm
posed in the case of other roads, and con-
ditional upon the commencement and com
pletion of the Deep Creek road within a
reasonable time.

SENATOR SHERMAN on the stump in Ohio,
undertakes to bury the force of the charge
that he has always been the trusted friend
and advocate of the interests of Wall
street. When the BLAND silver act was
passed in 1873 the eastern banks persuaded
him to disregard it by paying government
banks, principal and interest, in gold, on
the demand of the holders, and also to pay
all balances against the government in the
New York clearing house in gold-and
this, although the practice was willful
stigmatizing of the public coin by public
officer. The money power assumes to be
greater than the government itself.

TIRE NOVEMBER STATE ELECTIONS.


Five states of the union hold eiecuons OF
more or less national Importance on the
3rd of November next. They are New
York, Pennsylvania, Massachusetts, Ohio
and Iowa. OF these, Ohio may perhaps be
said to be less involved IN merely state
politics than any of the others; but public
interest naturally attaches to all as likely
TO show q possible or probable alignment
for the great presidential contest of 1892.
Though the prosperous condition of the
agricultural districts Of the country has
nothing to do with the csse,'' as to the
arguments for and against the Republican
position on the subject of the tariff, it is
unquestionably true that it has, to a con-
siderable extent, taken the sharp edge off
the active interest of the farmers in polit-
zeal affairs. 1t has produced an apathy in
those quarters fer the time being which is
advantageous to the Republican and CORE
spondingly hurtful to the Democratic side
of the contest. 1t Is useless to argue that
this ought not to be So in the face of the
discouraging fact that it is SO.
Ona of the reasons why the Ohio CAM

Democratic triumphs could be looked for
raoy have much to learn before they will
be in line with the party at large, but the
gospel OF the people is spreading there and
on the 4th of November THE HERALD hopes
to record another splendid victory. Yet
1t must be admitted the Republicans are
making an unusually desperate effort to
score success. Mr.. ALLEN, their nominee.
is very popular among the manufact-
urers, and is said 10 be a man of taking
address. His speeches, of course,
are full of statistics showing
the benefits of protection to the
people of the commonwealth, and with
their accumulated wealth and prospecting
business, it cannot be denied he makes
powerful exhibit HENRY CABOT LODGE,
the author Of the bill to carry the southern
congressional elections by Republican bay
onets, has been very prominent on the
stump, and within the past few days Tom
REED, the car of the last House of Repre-
sentatives, has made his appearance before
Republican audiences.
Iowa is the third state wherein this year
Democrat is running for reelection.
Governor BoIEs has made an acceptable
executive, and was renominated by his
party with great unsnimity. His opponent
is man named WHEELER, who appears to
have risen from obscurity as the special
apostle of coercive temperance The pro-
hibition issue cuts a very considerable
figure in the contest although
it by no means represents the full scope of
the questions before the people. Enforced
tee totalism in Iowa, accompanied by for
feiture of property, like breweries, etc.,
has been bowling failure, and the voters
evidently think good high license law
that will place around the sale of liquor,
wine aud lager beer some needed regula-
tions and at the same time assist in reliev-
ing the burdens of taxation, will do better
than the Intellectual and ridiculous system
prevailing, which encourages as much as it
restraints vice, and establishes an espionage
that does not belong to free republican
countries.
A new legislature is to be elected this
year and the Democracy have buoyant
hopes of carrying it. Two years ago there
was bare Republican majority of six. and
many of the senators elected in the grand
boom OF 1890 hold over. From the best ad-
vices THE HERALD has been able to obtain
we shall elect the Democratic state ticket
and majority in the legislature.
