Both political parties in Idaho stand
pledged to the removal OF the political dis
abilities of the Mormon citizens of the
state The efforts made TO this end previ-
Gus to the late election failed, through the
action of the supreme court composed of
Republican judges. Politics may have had
nothing to do with their decisions we hope
not But under it Mormon citizens cannot
vote and it requires legislative action to
relieve them Of the bondage in which thoy
exist.
The time is at hand when that action can
be taken. What viii be done about it. As
affairs now appear. the Republicans viii
probably be in control 1t remains to be
seen whether they will redeem their party
pledges, or whether through fears that the
re-enfranchised people will largely vote
I the Democratic ticket justice viii be de-
feated or delayed.
The Malad Enterprise has had some
strong articles on this matter, which have
been copied into other Idaho papers. From
one Of them we print elsewhere some
points which the legislators of Idaho will
do we'll to notice.

Cold Republican Comfort.

This is specimen brick from the Repub-
lican wall which is to bar the way to Dem
ocratic continuance in power:
If the Democratic party carries out the prin-
ciples of its platform the results will be so
disastrous to American industry that free trade
will be swept of the face of the American con
tinent four years hence. II it ignores it's plat
form and fails to keep it's promises to the PEG.
pie they win know that they were humbugged
in 1892 and Will sweep the humbugs from power
none the less. Either way the Democrats lose.
That is from the New York Press. 1t is
copied gleefully by other partisan journals.
We hope they viii draw from it all the
comfort it can afford. They need all they
can get and need it badly.
But we do not see wherein they have
cause to expect either predicted catas-
trophe. Free trade will not be swept of
the American continent four years hence
because it will not be here to be swept.
Nobody in his senses seriously talks Of set
ting up free trade. There is no humbug in
the Democratic platform, nor is there any
need for single promise to the people to
be ignored. 80 there will be no humbugs to
sweep away, either They were disposed

The Canadian Question.

One of the important public questions
which will occasion much disturbance be-
fore the close of the century, and Will
probably be decided by the time a new
century opens, is the political future of
Canada Annexation to the United States
is an old proposition, but 1t naturally sug-
gests itself whenever Canadian affairs are
discussed. And it is alleged by conserva-
tive men who are familiar with public SEN
timent in the Dominion, that the unionist
feeling has rapidly increased of late, and
that many persons who once were very
djfident about expressing their views are
now outspoken in their desire for annexa-
ton. This has been quite marked during
the past six months. Many Canadian
papers, too, are in favor OF union and say
SO freely.
Alta meeting held in Montreal last Mon
day the question was considered and finally
put to a vote The result was as follows
For imperial federation, 20; for the present
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1892-12-02

colonial system, 1854; for annexation to the
United States, 992; for independence,
| 1,6l4. This vote is very significant. It
shows. In the first place that the prepon-
derance Of feeling is in favor OF radical
change. In the second place that the idea
of federation under the British crown Is
not at all popular. In the third place that
l the drift is toward union with this nation.
| The independence of Canada may ration
ally be viewed as next to an impossibility.
Great Britain would fight it to the last ex-
IRENE. It would not be favored by the
| United States. When the project comes to
be fully understood by the Canadian peo-
pie they cannot fail TO perceive the great
advantages which would accrue from union
with the United States, in which they
would have all the essential liberty they
could enjoy as an entirely independent
government with the support and lnf1u-
ence of this great nation as well as the
commercial aud other material benefits that
they would derive.
vote in Canada for independence,
virtually signifies vote for annexation.
1t is but step from one to the other.
Situated az it is, Canada cannot stand en-
tirely alone, It's manifest destiny is in
corporation with the Union of states on
this North American continent. That
may be effected without serious Disagree
ment between England and the United
States.
OF course there is danger of collision
between the two powers in such an event.
But when the time comes that Canada de-
termines to be free from British rule and
declares her resolution in unmistakable
terms, the probability is that England will
become reconciled TO the situation, particu
larly if arrangements are made of CON-
pensatory character. with concessions on
both sides to avoid the costs and horrors OF
war.
1t ia altogether probable that If the
Montreal meeting is inflated in other parts
Of the Dominion, the parent government
will become alarmed and steps will be
taken for the purpose Of arresting the
movement. But these, If they are
of an arbitrary character, will nc-
celerate instead of retarding it, and
any attempt TO silence the public voice will
only make it the more pronounced. 1t is
claimed that the whole province of Quebec
is honeycombed with dissatisfaction and
that the Montreal demonstration exhibits
the general sentiment.
Annexation, when once seriously and
practically taken held of by the Canadians
themselves. will become very popular in
the United States And while the govern
ment of this country would take no active
steps likely to bring about conflict with
the government of Great Britain it could
not fail to recognize the Importance of the
movement and its value to US as well as to
our northern neighbors. To deliver the
rest of the northern half of the American
continent OF British rule and extend the
power of the United States from the Next
can guilt to the polar seas, is a consumma-
ton that must surely be desired by every
patriotic American citizen.

TIE OPINION expressed last month by
the people of California on the election of
Senators by direct vote was SO far in favor
of the proposition that it may he said to be
almost unanimous. The vote has no direct
effect, as the matter is one to be regulated
By the Federal Constitution. but it will en-
courage the efforts to inouce Congress to
submit such an amendment to the States.
There is no doubt that it would be carried
if once brought to a vote of the people.

The DEMOCRATS in the United States
Senate will probably not try to organize
that body unless they can muster forty
four Senators, so that with STEvENsoN's
vote they win have clear majority of
their own. If the Popuust Senators hold
the balance of power their terms will be
high. The right of the Vice President to
vote IN the organization of the Senate has
been settled by precedent. In 1881 Vice
President ARTHUR voted with the Republi-
cans on two occasions, in case OF tie, on
this very question of organization.

THE HERALD is of the opinion that the estate
must FIRST be held for the amount Of the note,
and that failing recourse could be had ON the

possibility that the latter could be held di-
rectly responsible. but that would be matter
for q court to decide in case he should refuse to

A French Scientists Project.

M. Francois Deloncle, a French sa-
want, and deputy for the Basses Alpes,
has marvellous project in hand which
he hopes to see completed in time to u.s.
tonish mankind at the Paris exhibition
Of 1909. Though the moon is 24O. 600
miles distant from the earth, M. De-
loncle thinks he can construct an appa-
ratus which will enable us to examine
that luminary at very close quarters.
The idea has been expounded by the
author before French scientific society,
and M. Deloncle says, in substance, that
the only obstacle to close observation
Of celestial bodies is the relative imper-
fection of instruments, and that all that
is required is an enlargement and i'm
provement Of the present instruments.
Astronomers, says M. Deloncle, have
reckoned that the image of the moon
can be brought quite close to the earth
by means of crystal mirror eight me-
ters in diameter, but which, owing to
the thickness required, would weigh
about eight tons. He has consulted va
rious opticians in Paris and they are
to execute the work before the
year 1900.
There remains, however, the question
of the structure which would be required
to hold this gigantic mirror, and upon
this point M. Maurice Loewy, a dis
French astronomer, says that
while in principle M. Deloncle's scheme
is possible there are enormous difficult
ties in the way of its realization, the
chief of which, 80 far as the exhibition
is concerned, is that the apparatus must
be erected on a mountain about two
miles in height in order to secure the
proper atmospheric conditions. If this
and other difficulties were surmounted,
says M. Loewy, there would be some
very remarkable results, for il would be
possible to clearly distinguish objects
about the size of four story house
