OUR LOGAN FRIENDS.

The people Of Logan have held their cleo
ton and the result has been declared. Now
let US hope that there will be return of
that good spirit from which we fear great
many took leave within the past few
weeks. The campaign was Of the ''hottest"
order. That was all right. II is right and
proper that men should labor hard and
earnestly for the establishment and su-
premacy OF the political principles in which
they believe. 1t is proper for them to en-
gage in the work of PROSECUTING publicly
and privately, and argument and discus
sion have wholesome and educational
effect. But we apprehend that too many
OF the excellent people of Logan were just
little too vigorous in their campaigning,
little to personal in their arguments. q little
too severe in their criticism Of the oppo-
siton. Men said on the platform and In
the streets things which it would have
been better to have left unsaid. Very
harsh things were uttered by the speakers
OF one party concerning the speakers of the
other party, and these called forth equally
harsh things in reply. The result was the
engendering of much bad feeling in the
]
OF and friends of lifetime alienated if
not turned into enemies. People who never
before thought i'll of each other, it is said,
now pass on the streets without recog-
milton.
We respectfully submit that all this is to
be regretted and we also suggest that it is
all wrong Politics does not call for any
such bitterness. 1t does not demand the
disturbance of social relations. 1t
ought not to make personal enemies
OF men heretofore friends. 1t
does not follow because a person
does not agree with you as to political doc
trines that he is rogue or you are scoun-
drel, and because you cannot agree it is
not essential that you should fall to abus-
ing each other as base wre,ches.
Logan is full of good people. Some Of
the ablest, brightest and best men in the
territory are residents of Logan, and it sc
happens that all Of these good men are no,
members of the same political party. They
disagree in politics and are honest in it
But that furnishes no reason why they
should dislike each other as men. THE
HERALD wants those good people, now thai
the campaign has ended, to keep it in theil
mind that mistakes were made, and then t.
avoid repeating those mistakes. We wan
them to still be good people, and continue
to be good friends. Unless they will d.
this, Logan must suffer materially ant
socially, and that charming city will CEASE
to be the delightful abiding place it ba.
been, the pride and Joy of its own people
and the admiration of all who are &C
quainted with it.

THE COLONIES DEFY.

In these days of ultimatums, it would
have been idle to suppose that Colonel
SULLIVAN could be silent. The Colonel
SULLIVAN we refer to is, of course, that
valiant champion of the manly art of self
defense who, some years since, babe for a
season the fistic world farewell, with the
view of achieving fame in the histrionic
art. That world is now reminded that his
total abstinence from scientific pugilism by
reason of dramatic engagements is of a
character to admit of his appearance in the
4-foot arena the last week of August or
the first week of September, ammo domini
1892. He puts his little chicken in the
middle of the ring, to adapt phrase from
MILToN. He Gefes that lot of "bombastic
sprinters' who have taken advantage of
the fact that the colonePs ''hands were tied
by contract and honor" giving preference
to SLAvIN, as having done the greatest
amount of blowing, but at the same time
willing to accommodate anybody. First
come, first served. In this challenge, how
ever, Colonel SULLIVAN vindlcates his eau
casian blood by drawing the color line, and
thereby excludes PETER JACKSON, since he
will not fight a negro"
The sentiment of JOHN L. that he intends
to keep the championship of the world ''in
the land of the free and the home of the
brave" will find a response, no doubt, in
every patriotic breast. 1t is sad to think
of the abiect humiliation our country would
feel if the pugihstic belt should ever en-
circle the bread, meat and whisky of any
other than an American stomach Yet
when the star-spangled banner enfolds in
its glorious pluribus uHum not only the
pugilistic gladiator, but the great actor and
the paragon of lushers, all in one, we shud

SHORT TARIFF Lessons.

The tariff laws compel US practically to
exchange our commodities for gold in
foreign markets instead of for the foreign
commodities we need Thus we lose the
difference between the price of gold abroad
and here, this difference being what the
tariff laws tax US. A bushel of wheat
worth dollar in Liverpool could be ex-
changed for a hat worth collar there
But as the hat is taxed dollar under our
custom laws, the farmer must give up
another bushel of wheat-two bushels of
for the wheat Is that plain. On this sub
ject Congressman BLAND, in document
from which THE HERALD has already
quoted, says:
Custom houses are just so many toll-gates
Commerce cannot pass through them without
paying the rates Of toll fixed by law. In this
country these rates are fixed SO high that there
is no profit whatever for the people who pro-
duce articles for export. In our country the
farmer is the principal sufferer, because he pro.
duces nearly the whole OF our surplus to be ex-
ported. Our products are sold abroad for gold
on the gold basis our tariff is paid in gold or on
the gold basis. The fact that international
trade is by the restrictions of the tariff REQUIRED
TO be practically an exchange OF goods for
money instead of commodity for commodity
necessarily makes a great demand for money
which results in a constantly increasing de-
mand for money in proportion to the increased
output OF commodities seeking market This
must of necessity put gold up and compel gold
TO rapidly rise from yeaT to year, for the
volume of commodities is increasing from year
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1892-03-08

this matter Is over the fact that the am
nesty movement was sought to be made a
political affair, being carefully confined to
Republicans, as if Democrats might be
unfavorable to the proposition, or could
not be trusted. That, we say, has
been annoying in places, because probably
as many Democrats as Republicans will be
affected by the granting of amnesty; and it
Is equally certain that Democrats. quite as
much as Republicans. favor this act of JUS
uce. tits not matter of politics, aud we
are sorry that an attempt was made to give
a partisan coloring to the business. How
ever, people will forget this in the event of
amnesty and all will give credit where it is
due, without regard to politics.

AMNESTY.

The Tribune has special from Washing
ton saying the Attorney-General will re-
port to the President this week his opinion
on the Mormon petition for amnesty. The
intimation is that the opinion will not only
recommend tho granting of general am
nesty but will be favorable to the Presi-
DENTS right tn DO SO without additional
legislation by Congress. AS to this latter
proposition there cannot be two opinions.
The power is conferred on the executive
in the constitution and can be neither
sunulled, abbreviated nor enlarged by
Congress. The section in the EDMuNDs
law, authorizing the President to
grant amnesty on certain conditions
TO offenders previous to the passage of the
bill meant nothing, as has always been held
by good lawyers and by people acquainted
with the constitution. II the President
desires he may issue a proclamation to-
morrow, granting amnesty to every offend
er against the anti-polygamy laws, and
that proclamation would free those offend
ers from legal responsibility for their acts
UP to the time OF the PRONUNCIATION OF the
pardon.
As THE HERALD believes and has said
many times since the manifesto discouuteu-
ance polygamy, amnesty should be grant
ed and those people who obey the law
should be restored to all the rights and
privileges of citizenship. They have sur
rendered to the sentiment of the country
and submitted To the authority of the
statutes, and it will be just on the part
Of the government to accept their obed-
fence in good faith and in a
spirit of kindness and generosity. Vindic-
tiveness ought not 10 be praeticed by the
nation. Many of the able and progressive
men Of this community-men who are held
in esteem by all classes-would be affected
by amnesty, and their sphere of usefulness
enlarged, whilst we cannot think Of an in
jurious effect which the pardon would have.
1t is certain that one good result would fol.
low amnesty. The men to whom the pro.
clamation would apply would have kind.
lier feeling in their hearts for the govern.
ment and for their fellow men.
The only regret that anybody can have in
