TERRITORIAL CONVENTION.

The Territorial Democratic Central COM
mittee which met in this city yesterday
fixed on October as the day and Provo as
the place for the territorial convention to
nominate candidate for delegate to Con-
gress ard transact such other business as
may properly come before the convention.
The official announcement will SOON be
made. together with the apportionment Of
delegates among the several counties. 1t
will undoubtedly be the grandest political
gathering ever held in the territory.
We think the committee has done wisely
in putting off the convention so long. Ex-
perience has taught that long campaigns
are not fruitful of good. They are
apt to grow wearisome to the people,
and energetic and spirited as managers may
be, it is difficult to keep up the enthusias N
week after week. The actual campaign
will be four weeks, which will be Time
the entire territory, and become acquainted
with the local communities, and not go
much time that any of it will drag.
In addition to the five hundred delegates
who will form the convention, it is expec-
ted that many Democrats will visit Provo
on the occasion of the meeting, a general
invitation being extended TO the Democra
cy to be present and witness the proceed
ings incident to the naming of Utah's next
delegate to Congress. Provo is o charming
little city, is well prepared to take care of
q great gathering, and her citizens will be
proud to entertain the hosts of the con-
trolling political party of the territory,

selling single bond. But these men are
not saying that they propose to build the
road. The newspapers are saying it, just
as they have said the same thing about
dozen or more lines as they were projected.
The HERALD hopes the San Francisco a.
Salt Lake viii materialize. We do not be-
lieve the road could be made to pay inter-
est on It's cost for the first twenty-five
years, and yet we hope 1t will be build, for
in the building this country will be bene-
flied, and whatever may be the fate
Of the owners, the community will be
helped by the competition. At the same
time, people living along the proposed line
should not indulge in great expectations, at
least not until they see theodolite in the
field and man with target rod. IT the
Deep Greek mines shall con tinue to improve
q road between that country and this city
will be a fact within year or two, but
much as we want to think otherwise we
do not believe a line between Salt Lake
and San Francisco is among the near prob
abilities. We do believe that the first road
to reach Underwater from this point will be
run via Los Angeles. There is route
which is encouraging to real railway build
ers, whatever may be said Of other routes

OTHER OF the very interesting questions
in the very interesting series arranged by
the New England Tariff Reform league are
the following. 1t is observed that the pro-
tectionists do not attempt to answer any OF
these questions:
II. as the Republican platform asserts. duty
should be levied upon imports equal 10 the
difference between wages abroad and at home .
why is the duty on steel rails S1244 ton, when
the difference in labor cost is only So. rs ton.
And why is the duty on pig iron s672a ton
when the difference in labor cost is only 1924:
And why do we impose duties on copper. sewing
machines. agricultural implements, clocks
watches breadstuffs. provisions. and numerous
other things which are produced more cheaply
here than anywhere else on earth:

The SAN FRANCISCO & SALT LAKE.

Both wings of the late Republican con-
vention in Nevada spoke words of encour-
agement for the proposed Sac Francisco s.
Salt Lake railroad one branch of the party
viewing with delight the prospect of the
construction of the road We wonder of
what that ''prospect'' consists What do
our friends on the other side of the border
know about the scheme that is not known
elsewhere? Are they ssontoi something
with which the public is not familiar! or,
do they simply see ''the prospect Of the
construction" In the newspaper stories
which have appeared with such regularity
during the past few months! The
HERALD has been trying TO keep watch of
the San Francisco & Salt Lake
project. We have endesvored to ascertain
sli there was in it; but up to date we have
been unable to learn that the scheme is
either more or less than dozen others
which have been sprung within the past
five or six years, none of which has come
to anything. Beginning in the early
eighties. the projects for building railways
between Utah and the Pacific coast have
followed thick and fast, st times three or
four Of these schemes being on foot at
once. We have been told many times that
the money had been secured and it was
only question of days whan the dirty would
fly, and of months when cars would be run
ming. And yet not q sod has been turned,
not tie bedded, not a rail laid. Most OF
the schemes we're paper affairs pure
and simple; only few had any
substantial backing; not one was ever ex-
pected to be built by the promoters. The
gentlemen working up most of the projects
didn't have enough morey to pay for a
hand car. and some of the promoters
couldn't pay the expenses of preliminary
survey across single township.
We mention these things, not with any
desire to throw cold water on any scheme
which has for its object The giving of this
territory another railway outlet to The Pa
cifc. but for the purpose of asking what
anybody finds in the suggested San Fran
cisco q Salt Lake that is more encouraging
than the other enterprises To the present
time it is as much paper roadv as any
that has come before the public. True,
some good names are mentioned in connec-
ton with the scheme There are millionaires
and progressive citizens; the gentlemen
who have been made to figure in the pro-
iecs could construct and equip the line,
without disposing of share of stock or
