THE OUTLOOK FOR SILVER.

Yesterday the cable brought the news
that the Calcutta papers are urging the
government TO close the minis against the
free coinage OF silver 1t viii not be a
surprise when the announcement shall
come that even India has struck blow at
the white metal by reducing it TO a commo-
dity basis. Yesterday the United States
treasury purchased $4,000 ounces Of silver
at "a. the lowest point yet touched.
This is all mighty bad, coming on the
eve of the international monetary confer
ence which il was hoped would take action
looking to the early restoration Of silver to
the position of a money metal. in some
equitable ratio with gold. If matters shalt
get much worse by the time the conference
opens, it will be hardly worth while for
The representatives Of the powers to meet
for the discussion Of the question involved.
With India the great sllver-using
country of the world, protesting
against the enlarged use of the metal,
and all Europe unfriendly to the full
reconciliation the conference would not
be likely to take issue with the world and
recommend the restoration of silver to its
former place in the coinage systems of the
nations. Indeed, it may with reasonable
certainty be set down in advance that the
international conference will accomplish
nothing for silver We are not certain
that the meeting will not do more harm
than good, in that it is likely to declare
against RECOMMENDATION.
II will then be problem for the United
States to solve 1t will be for the people
of this country to decide for themselves
whether they will make silver a money
metal and place it on an equal footing with
gold, or leave it a commercial product TO
be 9ealt in like copper, lead and iron. Keen
as the majority Of the American people are
for more and cheaper moneJ, and eager as
they are for the RECOMMENDATION of silver at
the ratio Of 10 10 ! Of gold, it may be doubt
ed that they win undertake. reconciliation
single handed aud thus defy the combined
opposition of the commercial nations. This
is big country and powerful one, finan-
cially as in every other respect, but strong,
self-reliant and courageous as it is. we
don't believe it would run the risk involved
in the adoption of free coinage IN opposition
to the advice Of the worlds greatest fnan-
ciers and in defiance of the practice of all
the other nations.
The outlook is indeed serious, and is es-
pecially SO to the mining states and terri
tories.

IRISH HOME RULE.

Every true American has sympathized
with the Irish people in their long struggle
for freedom. That struggle has had in it
almost every element which gave to the
Colonial revolution its spirit and heroism.
Every national convention Of either great
party in the United States has for years
extended its sympathies to the Irish patri-
OTIS. In its demand for Home Rule, Ireland
has appealed no less to the reason than the
hearts of the people of the civilized world.
At last, in the election OF the GLADSTONE
parliament. England has, reluctantly, it is
true, and too feebly, also, responded to the
raigning the ole regime, the Liberal leader
said:
The claims OF Ireland had been for years in
the forefront OF battle, and that position was
now held by the principles of his Home Rule
bill which were pretty well known. BY its
provisions there would be a full and etfectual
maintenance of imperial supremacy, while Ire
land would be given the privilege Of conducting
her own affairs.
How analogous the case of Ireland and
Utah! The Home Rule bill of Mr.. GLAD
STONE proposes no independence of the
imperial supremacy. The Home Rule bill
for Utah proposes no cutting aloof from
the supervision of the general government
of the United States, but asks that Utah
be ''given the privilege Of conducting her
own affairs" Ireland is full of hostility
to the Imperial supremacy" Utah Is
loyal to the constitution and the Union.
The similarity between Ireland and Utah
is in the denial of their popular rights, but
the tyranny against Utah is the greater
and more uncomfortable because her appeal
is to republican oppressor, whilst Ire
lands coming emancipation has been
wrung from the despotism of monarchy.

From the Chicago Platform, June 1892.
We solemnly declare that the need OF a re-
turn 10 these fundamental principles OK free
popular government based on home rule and
Individual liberty, was never more urgent thau

the federal capital has become menace to
the reserved rights Of the states.
We approve the action OF the present House
Of Representatives in passing DnIs for the ad-
mission into the Union. as states. OF the terri
tories OF New Mexico and Arizona, and favor

necessary population and resources 10 entitle
them TO statehood; and while they remain
territories, we hold that the officials sp-
pointed TO administer the government Of any
territory, together with the Districts OF Column
bia and Alaska should be bona -hde residents
Of the territory district in which their duties
are TO be performed. The Democratic party
believes in home rule and the control Of their
own affairs by the people Of each viclnage.

A MATTER OF INDIFFERENCE.

"Why doesn't TIE HERALD rejoice over
the dissolution of the Liberal party in
Tooele!" This is a query which an anony-
nous correspondent sends through the
postoffice. We might appropriately answer
in Yankee fashion, asking, why should
The HERALD rejoicel IL would be IN

thermore, the going to pieces of the county
Liberal organizations has come to be such
a common occurrence that if one were dis
posed to manifest pleasure when such an
event happened he would long ere this have
grown weary of the merriment.
Whatever of life remained in the Liberal
party was knocked out of it by the Mime
apolls and Chicago conventions. Since
those great gatherings of the representa-
tives of the national parties, the Liberal
organization has been going to pieces just
about as fast as it could. 1t has gone no
faster IN Tooale than elsewhere. 1t was
virtually dead before last Saturdays con-
vention, so many desertions had taken
place. Indeed, the managers saw there
would be nothing to 'dissolve'' if they
weren't active in the matter, hence the
convert ton in which there was but one
vote against abandoning the old party. 1t
is much the same all over the territory,
and the truth cannot be disguised by the
bosses. Even here in Salt Lake, where
the bosses reside and the spoils are great
est, the old concern Is going to pieces so
fast that it will astonish nobody to read
one of these mornings that the decree has
gone forth that it is not worth while to
attempt to keep up the organization.
TIE HERALD doesn't rejoice for the rea-
son that The HERALD is utterly Indifferent
in the matter. The party has ceased to be
an important factor in the affairs of the
territory, and this being true it concerns no.
body what an insignificant faction shall do.
