God has called you, Louie, darling,
From this world Of grief aud woe
But our thoughts are with you, Louie,
Underneath the earth so low.
Yes, the thoughts Of those that loved You
Follow you to-day
To the throne OF Him, the great God,
Whom we all love and obey.
He has called you from your home,
From children that loved you well,
But has given you brighter,
Better home than tongue can tell.
For the mother, broken-heartcd,
And the father, old and gray,
Brothers, sisters, kind and loving,
There will be meeting day.
And from ones that loved you dearly
TITS so hard, so hard to part;
So hard T. break the tender cord
When love has bound the heart.
And the place you filed, dear Louie
Will be vacant evermore;
But we hope TO meet thee, Louie,
ON the bright, eternal shore

THE WORLDS FAIR BILL.


Senator PLATT appears to have assumed
the proprietorship of the Utah Worlds
fair bill. AS chairman of the Senate COM
miItee on territories, he has taken it upon
himself to say in what shape the bill shall
pass if it be permitted to pass at all He
has written TO certain gentlemen in this
city for their opinions IS to the propriety
the measure and the character of the COM
missioners named therein, and having re-
celyed answers to his inquiries SO far over
comes his objection to speaking as to eX-
press the probability that he may report
the bill to the Senate with an abbreviated
list of commissioners
Everybody recognizes in Mr.. PLATT g
very great statesman, and one possessing
power and influence; but everybody is not
yet ready to concede that the gentleman
from Connecticut carries Congress in his
trousers pocket There are other men in
the national legislature who, il they are
not so mighty as the Nutmeg Senator, have
something to say as to what goes on in that
body.
The Utah Worlds fair bill is in no sense
a congressional measure, and we have req
son TO believe some of the foremost mem
bers in each house look upon it as something
with which Congress ought to have moth
ing to do. They regard it as in the strict.
est sense territorial matter, and the only
reason why they think for moment OF
taking action on it is the necessity Of the
occasion. The governor of the territory
having exercised an arbitrary power will

OF the right and privilege OF appearing al

THE sMITHFIELD ELECTION.

There is something mysterious about the
Smithheld election. The solution ought to
come from certain of the voters themselves,
who alone can furnish the necessary expla-
nation. 1t Doesn't matter much al Smith
field or elsewhere that the city has gone
Republican. The total vote cast was only
175, so that very few people can be immedi-
ately concerned in the outcome. Further
more, we understand that the successful
candidates are respected and worthy citi-
zens, and are likely to manage the affairs of
the little municipality properly, notwith-
standing the Objectionable politics Of the
officials.
But there is a matter connected with the
the election which ought to be explained by
twenty six voters. Last August 100 citi-
zens Of Smithfield voted the Democratic
ticket, and on Monday only eighty-three
did so, the difference being twenty-six;
the returns show that day before yesterday
these twenty-six voted the Republican
ticket. which had just twenty eight more
votes than in August
The HERALD must not be understood as
finding fault, because we recognize the
moral and legal right of every citizen to
cast his vote as be pleases; but curiosity
compels US to ask few questions. When
these men voted the Democratic ticket in
August, were they Democrats! If they
were, when did they change their princi-
pies and what induced them to change9 If
they were not Democrats eight months ago
why did they vote for Democratic csndi-
| 6ptQ ho oil II
Republicans when they cast their ballots
last Monday, or did they conclude that
being without political principles and hold
ing the balance of power as between honest
Republicans and honest Democrats they
would give the city to the Republicans this
time and thus make honors easy9
| 1t is such remarkable and rare occur
renee for "A per cent. OF the membership of
party to desert and go over to the enemy
in eight months that the Smithfeld returns
will excite more or less comment through
out the territory.

a BAD BILL.

Senator PADDOCK has at last succeeded
in getting his so-called Pure Ford bill
through the upper house of Congress, and
in its passage the Senate has furnished an
other striking instance of the absence of
that regard for individual and state rights
for which modern Congresses are notable.
Not only is the bill vicious in principle, but
il proposes an unwarranted and uncalled
for interference in affairs which do not
concern the federal government. Its de-
tenders excuse it under that provision of
the constitution which empowers Congress
to regulate commerce among the states,
but such an enactment was never contem-
plated by the trainers of the nations fund
amental law. The matter is really in the
line of so many bills AMI laws framed
nowadays by Republicans for extending
the power of the general government
over the local affairs of the
people. The chief feature Of the bill may
be briefly stated: Trading in food and
medicines between the states must be car
ried on under rules and regulations as to
the inspection of the articles bought and
sold prescribed by the secretary of agricul-
ture.E That is to say, the ranchman in
| Wyoming cannot bring his butter and
cheese into this territory without obtain
| ing permit from federal officer who
must first inspect the butter and cheese
The pill-maker of New York and the
sarsaparilla bottlers of Massachusetts, can
sell their wares anywhere within the con-
fines of their respective states, but before
they can send box or bottle across the
border they must fee an inspector. Even
if such law were necessary the evils
which would result from its
operation would be great. L would
encourage corruption and bids fol-
bribery, whilst official Matchmaking would
develop into an art. But there is no occa
sion for the law. The local law makers car
provide all the legislation necessary anc
the local authorities can afford protection
from impure food and medicine much bet
ter than the appolntees OF the general gov
eminent.
The Senate has passed the bill, but for
tunately there is q satisfactory Democratic
majority in the House of Representa- yes
No Democrat will vote to confirm such ar
outrageous declaration of the centraliza
ton idea. We shall expect the House viii
make short work of the bill, quietly bu
effectively multiplying the two years. labor

A NATURAL ALLIANCE.

There arc some Republicans who do not
like the suggestion that the Republican
and Liberal parties are practically the
same and out of respect for the feelings of
the gentlemen of tender sensibiliries we
will say nothing about it. At the same
time we cannot be blinded to the fact
that the Republicans and the Liberals of
Mt. Pleasant discovered this spring that
they were so near alike, and their plat
forms of principles were SO uniform that
they fused" Ia S4heir ticket and at the
polls, and to-day are rejoicing over the
fruit of the very natural alliance. They
have carried the enterpris1ng city, defeat
ing the Democrats by maiorities rang
ing all the way from one to forty.
When the Liberals and Republicans
discovered that there was really no chasm
between them requiring a bridge, and
when they fell into each others arms
and wondered why they had ever been
estranged, the Mt. Pleasant Democracy
realized that the victory would be award ed
to the opposition. Nevertheless, the Dem
ocrats went right along with their work,
just as if they expected to win. They came
SO near getting there" that they must
feel almost as good as though they sue
ceeded. They will certainly be encouraged
to fight harder than ever, knowing as they
will that victory is within reach. TIL
! HERALD regards Mt. Pleasant as reason
ably certain to give Democratic majority
in November.

POOR WYOMING.

1t would almost seem that the people of
Wyoming were about ready to declare that
they made mistake when they applied to
Congress for admission to the Union as
free and sovereign state. The governor con-
fessed as much when he passed by the civil
authorities, ignored the state militia and
appealed directly to the President for
federal soldiers to preserve the peace. No
state has ever before manifested such in
herent weakness. If troubles have arisen
which threatened to develop into affairs too
serious for the local authorities to grapple
with, test of the state power has at least
been made before the government has been
applied to. The Wyoming governor as
sumed that the state could not maintain
order, and he went direct to the President
of the United States.
Now comes the announcement that the
cattlemen who recently invaded Johnson
county as an armed mob of exterminators,
and who have since been living under the
protection of United States troops, have
gone to the federal court with a petition
praying that tribunal to make direct inter
ference in purely local affair. The spring
roundup OF C6LLle QOeS not ordinarily &c
cur until the latter part of this month, but
the johnson county authorities have an
nounced that this year II will be held
earlier, whereupon the cattlemen ask the
federal court to interfere. If there were
ever q case where federal tribunal ought
not to interfere and where the state court
should be supreme, it is this; yet the fore
most citizens of the state distrust the
power and authority Of the state, just az
the governor has done, and rely upon the
United States for law and its enforcement.
Things would have been better under a
territorial government The same power
would have been employed, and its exer-
else would have been legitimate, while the
community would have been spared the
humiliating confession of weakness which
they are making every day during this
trouble with the cattlsmen and the so.
called rustlers. If matters continue much
longer as they have been running of late,
all but the politicians and Office holders OF
Wyoming viii be wondering if it is not
possible to reduce the state to territorial
condition, there to remain until such time
as state government can be maintained.

THE MICHIGAN ELECTORS.

1t appears that the Michigan Republi-
cans have determined to carry into execu-
ton their threat to test the constitution
atty of the law enacted by the late Demo
cratic legislature, requiring the choosing
of presidential electors by districts, instead
of by the voters of the entire state There
was talk of the test at the time of the pas
sage OF the law, but few thought the poll
ticians would be so foolhardy. 1t is prob
able that the encourag they re-
ceived from President HARRISON, in his
message, induced them to go ahead; they
being further encouraged by the fact that
the Michigan Supreme Court is Republi-
can in its composition. Upon the applica-
ton of the fourteen Republican nominee 8
for electors, the court has issued writ,
returnable on the 18th instant, citing the
secretary of state to show cause why he
should not issue the notices of election
under the old law.

the least degree apprehensive as to the out.

SHORT TARIFF LESSONS.

To prohibit importing articles ready for
use by the people was the object of the Nc
KINLEY bill. But it gave manufacturers
free trade in articles that cannot be used
until they have passed through the hands
of such corporations. Whilst free trade
was given to the corporations in some ar

year from using the comforts and necessar-
les of life to the value of over S45, 900, Co.,
The extent of this prohibition, as illus
trated in the falling off in the imports of
manufactured goods between 1890 and 1891
is shown in the case of certain articles by
