a NEW NATIONAL PARTg.

AT the Farmers Alliance conference in
Chicago on Thursday last, there was the
usual debate as to whether it should main
tain a separate political existence in con-
junction with the proposed third party. 1t
was decided to send delegates to the ST.
Louis convention but without committal to
any new party.
When the convention shall have met and
formulated basis of action, it is not i'm
probable it will be found that those who
take part in it are so nearly in accord with
the Democracy as TO make fellowship with
this old national party both desirable and
necessary. 1t would be a waste of strength
to organize two parties to DO what can be
done by one. The very first purpose of
the Alliance and the various industrial
associations should be TO overthrow
the party under which these griev-
ances have grown and which has
stubbornly refused to redress them. The
farmers movement and Democracy are not
foes. They agree, in the main, in several
proposed measures about the public lands,
the currency, coinage and the tariff, and
this is an incentive to fellowship, if not to
entire union.
The authors of the new party movement
cannot afford to ignore the result of the
elections of the past two years. The Demo-
crazy have been leading the fight, and the
people are following, and whilst the
Alliance did much to achieve the results, IL
will have to be admitted that The Democ-
racy did great deal more. The Democ-
racy today, single-handed, can carry the
country against the Republicans by an
overwhelming majority, and if they were
in power the farmers would get great
deal of what they now demand and largely
lessen the necessity for demands the
Democracy are not ready to give and which
no other party can give.

TIE LIBERAL TICKET.

The Liberal ticket gives the Democracy
more real encouragement than they have
had since preparations were begun for the
municipal election. The party of the peo-
pie have ielt that it was working at dis
advantage. il knew that it was opposed
openly aud secretly by that viciously par
tisan institution, the Utah commission.
which does not scruple to do all in its
power to help the Liberals. The registra-
ton is done in the interest Of the Liberals
and with the deliberate purpose of injuring
the Democrats. All the election machinery
is IN the hands of the enemy and is manipu-
lated cleverly in that interest. Then
thousands of dollars OF the peoples money
have been expended during the past six
weeks for keeping foaters and hobos in
town until election day that they might
vote the Liberal ticket. The odds against
which the Democracy have been compelled
to work are discouraging and would be
disheartenlng to less earnest, determined
men than are the rank and file of the Demo
Gratis.
But the Liberal: ticket has helped

cause of this too apparent weakness that
the Democrats are rejoicing. They do not

To-DAY,s CONVENTION.

The Democratic city convention will be
held to-day. THE HERALD promised that
the ticket which the people would be asked
10 support should be perfect one, and
that promise has been faithfully kept SO
far as the ward nominations are concerned.
Every man named for the council possesses
a clean, unassailable record, and further
moro represents the best element in the
community. They all stand well with
their neighbors, and all were selected on
account of their honesty. integrity, trust
worthiness, ability and fitness for the
office. We say this for them as Democrats
and citizens, and if they shall be elected
the charge Of boodleism, incompetency or
recklessness will never be preferred.
The nominations to the general offices
will DC made to-day, and they must rank
with those from the wards. They must be
brainey, progressive men whose records are
such that no person can assail them. They
must be citizens in whom the people will
have absolute confidence. The nominee
for mayor must not be silurian nor man
WAC feeds on venom and whets his appetite
with hatred towards his fellow men. He
must be man of broad views and pro-
gressive ideas, who sees in this city the
foundation Of a great metropolis whose
growth must not be checked by the narrow
ness of men and the viciousness of parti-
sans. The assessor and collector must be
one who will not use his Office to Cypress
the people, wringing from them money to
be spent for partisan political purposes. He
must be man whose very name will be a
guarantee TO every property owner that
property will be fairly and equitably
assessed. The marshal must be 6
man who will at once be recog-
nized as an enemy to evil doer:
and in whom the thugs and burglars an(
footpads will see an official determined
upon their punishment. The treasurer
must be one who is not merely able Il

SHIP ARMoR AND GREAT GUNS.

have watched with intense curiosity and
interest.
The spectacle of sea fights between the
great armor-clad ships which all the ma
tions, great and small, have spent so much
money, labor ana ingenuity in constructing
in the last thirty years, mast be grand and
terrible, for within the period mentioned
there has probably been more advancement
than in all previous history. Modern war
ship building dates from the combat be-
tween the Merrimac and Monitor in Hamp-
ton Roads in 1862 That was a hint which
the fighting nations could not overlook, and

Defense unnl ii is impossible TO tell, with

Thirty years ago 6S-pouud gun on a
wooden ship was the largest piece of naval
ordnance afloat and well-directed broad
side from a battery of such guns, fired
against the open sides of a vessel, would
do all the injury required. But when iron
| plating came into fashion, bigger and
more powerful guns came with it. The
guns grew larger, heavier and larger-muz-
zled, as the plating grew thicker, and now
when the limit of both appears to be
reached, we have ship guns that weigh 11C
tons which, with charge of 1000 pounds
of powder, throw a missile of 1000 pounds
weight. Cannon balls have gone out OF
style for heavy ordnance, and long cylin-
drical masses of iron, tipped with steel,
and called projectiles, have taken their

Defensive improvements have nearly KEEP,

intrust the mighty interests involved to
the management of the men named by the
Liberals to control the affairs of Salt Lake
for two years. 1t cannot be possible that
the progressive citizens will do anything
which will place at the head of the govern
ment man who, although he has been
resident for score of years or more, has
not advanced a single step in all that
time The Liberal nominee for
mayor lives in the same atmosphere
with which he surrounded himself a
quarter Of a century ago; he reads the
same literature that he read then; he con-
lures up the same spooks with which he
has been troubling his nights all these
years; he wears 90 his countenance the
same sheer which has repealed those who
attempted to approach him. He is per-
haps the most conspicuous specimen In
Salt Lake of a back number, and with
him in control the progress Of the city
would be that of the crab. The next most
important Official SO far as the bona-fide
residents are concerned, is the assessor and
collector, and for that place person has
been named who is practically unknown
in the community. He is so much stran-
ger that when somebody tolo a reporter
last week that such person was candi-
date for Office an inquiry was set on foot
to learn something con cerning him. An in
dustrious search developed the fact that
at one time in his career he resided
in an obscure Colorado town.
Up to the present it has been
impossible to learn whether his residence
here has extended over period of weeks,
months or years. The Liberal organ vouches
for him, but that doesn't count. Two yea S
IL vouched in similar terms for its party
nominees, growing recklessly lavish in its
praises of them for ability, honesty and in
tegrity, and within three months it was de.
nouncing them as 'boodlers.n Certificates
of character from such a source carry no
weight in this community. Is it likely that
! the property-owner will vote to confer
upon stranger the power to assess and
collect taxes, fixing values at his own
sweet will and handling quarter of a
million dollars Of the peoples money a
year? Those without property may vote
such man into important Office, but we
take it that the substantial citizens of Salt

The names have been published. That is
sufficient, although it may be well to re-
mark that Salt Lake is city Of so, 600 in
habitants, among whom are many bright
and brainey men, progressive and enter

whose ability at least they have some con
fidence.

the Democracy great encouragement. The
ticket is the very best campaign document
for the Democrats. 1t tells ali that neeC

VETOED, OF COURSE.

Of course Governor THOMAS vetoed the
bill fixing the tenure of office and changing
the time of holding elections. We say, of
course he did this, because his party bosses
commanded him to do it. 1t didn't make
any difference with him that for years he
and his party have advocated just such
bill as this one. At this particular June
ture the bosses thought it would be to the
disadvantage of their party to postpone
until November the election in this city
and that was sufficient argument with
them that the bill should be killed, the best
interests Of quarter Of a million people
comprising the population Of Utah being as
nothing compared with the wishes of an
anomalous political organization in Salt
Lake city. The commands of the bosses
also were equivalent TO veto, the gov
ernor being ready on moments notice to
stultify himself when hidden to it by those
he recognizes as masters.
The bill has been defeated and elections
will continue as heretofore, four occurring
in this city this year, three next year,
four the following year and so on. The
community must be kept in state of tur-
MOL and political strife from January to
December, one campaign no sooner closing
than another opens. Thousands of dollars
must be expended annually for election ex-
penses, and the time of the citizens wasted
in incessant voting; and all because few
political bosses have strings on the gov
ernor which control him absolutely.
1t is observed that the pee wee executive
tells the legislature the kind of bill that
he will approve. THE HERALD trusts the
law makers will think too much of them
selves to pay any attention to his sugges
tions; but if the solons do confess by &C
cepting his dictation the governor and moi
they know best what the people want it is
to be hoped that they will take the precau-
ton before passing the bill TO place THoMA:
under bonds to approYeit; as otherwise hi:
bosses might change their minds when the
work of the legislature would be thrown
away. Or perhaps it would be safer tt
consult those bosses and get their consen
without taking the governor into account
