LEAVENING THE WHOLE LUMP.

The hub about the address of Presl-
dent ELIOT recently delivered in this city
belongs to the kind of agitation that does
good. 1t will help Utah because ii
will start anew inquiry about the
true condition of affairs here and
serve to enlighten thousands of people
whose minds have been beclouded by the
sort of stuff continually printed in that
"LiberaW orsan whose business it is tc
keep off immigration by false representa-.
tons of the state of things as they exist
Thus so intelligent, able and influential g
journal as the Washington Post comment
ing upon President ELIoT's statement that
"polygamy is no more an issue in Utah to.
day than Is the bloody shirt in national
politics." remarks:
There will always be grave doubts in some
minds, even among those who hold polygamy in
the utmost adherence, as to the justifability oil
the means which the government has hitherto
employed to break the Mormon power and dis
mantle, as it were, the hierarchy which it had
built up. But this is question of the past.
The work has been done. Polygamy as a
church institution is practically extinct The
J0Nh6SA seh0Io4on Vi Mormons, WHO nave
grownup pending the controversy, want non c
OF it; they would not see it restored even if it
were practicable. AS little as the south desires
the re-establishment Of slavery as labor sys-
tenn, so little do the Mormons desire the re-
Mobilization OF plural marriage as a religious
ordinance. Utah, therefore, in its relation TO
the United States stands upon the same footing
as any other territory and should be accorded
like cognizance. 1t is prosperous and popu-
lous commonwealth, against whose admission
10 the Union, whatever other objections NAV be
raised, the peculiar institution by which it was
formerly characterized can no longer be urged
with justice.

AFTER THE GRIPPE.
qfhe Grippe Responsible for More Deaths
after Recovery than During its Course.
How to Avoid the Danger.

Grippe. in ITSELF is bad enough. facilitating
enough, but it Is the after effects. the slowness
of recovery that give 1t its great danger. In
most cases. the person did not have sufficient
vitality to rally after the disease itself had
passed. The forces OF nature were too weak to
contend with the debility which the Grippe had
left.
1t is sad to think how many people have died
who might have been saved if nature had beer
properly assisted and fortified after the Grippe
had been driv en- from the system. Many phys
icians realized this fact and assisted their pa
tients over the dangerous after effects by brac-
Ing up and slim ulating their systems. This
was and can be done in but one way, and that
is by the steady and moderate use OF som pure
yet powerful stimulant There is but one alb
solutely pure and medicinal stimulant known
to the profession and TO the public, and that is
Duffy's Pure Malt whisky. The most pron1i-
nent scientists and physicians OF the land en-
dorse its purity and value. 1t is not O new
whisky. it has been before the public for years
it is not cheap decoction. but pure distilla-
ton. 1t imparts tone to the system possible
in no other manner and sends the blood cours-
ing through the veins with renewed vigor 1t
is superior in every respect and however much
any INSCRIPTIONS druggist or grocer may seek
TO lead you TO believe TO the contrary do not be
deceived.

SILVER.
with justice

There have been q good many announce
ments in the papers that such and such
mines would be closed unless the price OF
silver went up. These mines are situated in
Colorado, Utah, Idaho and Montana, and il
one were TO believe all the newspapers AND
the special correspondents say regarding
them, he would see only gloom for the wide
west BGt one must not believe all he
reads. The mines have not vet been shut
down. but as rule they are working the
regular forces of men. We don't believe
that any Utah silver mine viii be closed on
account of the decline in the price of the
white metal. 1t wouldn't be a very fiat.
terlng report, it strikes US, that would
say mine had to quit work because
silver was so low it wouldn't pay to dig it.
There may be such mines in Utah, but let
US hope not. 1t is possible that lead NAV
fall to such price as to make Improbable
the working of some of our lead mines
That has occurred before and is liable to
happen again.
The HERALD is of the opinion that these
threatened stoppiugs Of production are in
tended for effect in Washington, and have
no connection with the mines themselves.
Politics interfered to prevent the passage
OF the free coinage bill, the spectators
knocked the price of silver down. and now
the mine-owners are trying to influence
the politicians and beat the Spectators.
That is all there is in this business, in our
opinion, and this will be our opinion until
silver mine is actually shut down.
Meantime, are not some miue-owner be
coming needlessly alarmed 1t is idle &c
say that silver can be held at it's present
price. The spectators may be able to keep
1t down a little while, but only little
while. Already something of an advance
has occurred, and we shall be disappointed
II the price does not within a very few days
advance to the figures which have been
prevalent for several months past The
statute having made silver commodity
pure and simple, stripping it of even the
little coin value which it had under the act
OF 1878, the price must be regulated by the
commercial law of supply and demand, in
huenced only by the compulsory purchase
by the government of 4,500,OOO ounces
monthly. This latter law has fixed the
price In the neighborhood of 90 cents per
ounce, and spectators will be unable to
take the price far from that figure except
temporarily. A change can only be brought
about by materially increased or aateri-
ally decreased production, neither of which
Is thought to be probable in the near fn-
ture.

He GETS HIS PAY.

AS expected Mr.. CLAGETT is to be well
paid for putting in claim to the Idaho
Senatorship He had just as good a right
to ask for Senator Stewards seat, or Sen.
ator STANFoRD's or Senator HoAn's: that
IS to say, he had NO right at all, and it is
doubted that he ever expected to win the
place. 1t was notoriety that he was after
and dollars. He got certain amount of
the former, aud now be will get some of
the latter, Senate committee having
recommended that he be paid $1,000 for
presenting and prosecuting his ridiculous
claim.
a lew years ago somebody made an effort
to have Congress discontinue the practice
OF paying contestants for seats, leaving the
loser to bear the cost of his contest The
effort failed, but another one should he
made and success ought to attend it. Then
the CLAGETTs would not be so eager tn Law
claim to congressional honors. The Idaho
gentleman is understood to possess o
goodly share of this worlds wealth. bpt if
is not believed that if he had known that
failure to obtain the seat would have been
attended by the loss of all the money! the
contest cost, he would have urged his tlimsv
case. He knew that while he could not get
the place occupied by Mr.. DUBOIS his time
would not be wasted, hence he went ahead

Communicated
The Woman Suffrage Controversy.


pardon, gentiles ALL" for referring once
more to this subject. We would not do SO
If itwere not for the fact that the editor of
the Ne1CS is evidently in bad humor over
1t. Something like a month ago we veu-
tured to express our views upon the ques-
ton OF woman suffrage, end TO this the
NeuS editor, by request, wrote reply"
10 this reply" we had the surprising
temerity TO make answer. That answer,
however, appeared in IRE SEMI WEEKLY
HERALD instead of the daily and escaped
the notice Of the NslCS editor until day or
| two ago, when some one interested in the
controversy called his attention to it. That
our second article did not appear in the
daily, where it would meet the eve of the
Netcs editor, was not our fault, and when
we saw that it appeared in the SEMI
WEEKLY we thought the zeal of those
whose cause the gentleman champions
could be trusted to call his attention to the
article, especially as we knew it to be in
the hands of some of the gentleman's lady
friends, who are ardent suffragists 1t ap-
pears that we miscalcuated the intensity of
that zeal, and the gentleman did not see
our answer to HIM until day or two ago.
But once seen, the shaking of red flag in
the face of bull seems not more effective
in producing the wrath of that animal,
than sight of our article has in arousing
the ire OF the NelCS editor, and he comes at
US with a three column editorial in his
Wednesdays issue. 1t is not our intention,
nor is it at all necessary, to make answer
to his ebullition of froth and wrath 1t
touches not the real principles involved
in the controversy, but is an assault, in
the main, on the phraseology of our argu-
ments; and if that needed any de-
tense it is too far in the past
to be discussed with profit now.
1t is enough to say in reply to our irate
editor, that "GRATIANo speaks an infinite
deal of nothing. more than any man in
Venice. His reasons are as two grains Of
wheat in two bushels of chaff: you shall
seek all day ere you find them, and when
you have them they are not worth the
scratch"
1t was, of course, rash thing to give ex-
preston to opinions with which we knew
before hand the editor of the NeUs would
not agree, but when we addressed our
selves a second time to the subject and Sat
tempted rejoinder," the surprise of the
editor was turned to establishment and
ended in wrath. He must console himself
with the reflection that there is no account
ing for the perversity of the human nature
of some folks who Though the king frown
upon them, they neither quake with fear
nor crook the pregnant hinges of their
kneesn
