Not q Party Question.

The question is asked of THE HERALD
by Milford subscriber whether a free
silver coinage bill was passed by the
United States Senate, under Republican
administration and previous to July, 1891.
There was bill of that kind before the
House of Representatives, having passed
the Senate, in 1890 and on the 10th of
June it failed to pass the House, the vote
being yeas 1876, nays 152. But the Re-
publican party cannot be credited with
the measure in any way, because ma
jority of Republican congressman were
opposed to it and 1t would not have been
signed by the Republican President.
The question of free coinage can scarcely
be called party issue. While it is true
that the demonetizing act of 1873 was q
Republican measure, and that there have
always been Republicans enough TO de-
feat any genuine attempt to bring relief
from that evil thing, the Democratic
party has not been united by any means
for its repeal. The Sherman act was also
a Republican measure, and both parties
are now agreed that it has not answered
the purpose designed in its passage ex-
cept that, as intended by its promoters,
it prevented free coinage law.
There are free silver men in both
political parties and also monomet-
allists. If the Democratic party were
united on a free coinage policy it
could now be carried into effect. But
there are Just as sincere advocates of a
single monetary standard in both parties
as there are free silver men land just now it
seems impossible to convince the former
that the unlimited coinage of silver will
not bring about financial ruin.
1t is question of principle and also of
expediency. There are selfish interests
at work on both sides, but there are also
many honest and sincere advocates of
each, who are not biased by any personal
considerations and are not goldites or
silveTites from any party obligations.
The Republican party could have restored
silver to its former position as money;
the Democratic party can do that now.
But neither party favors it sufficiently at
present to make it party question.

Sound Silver Policy.

These are times when prudence should
take the place of passion, and even prin
ciple should be tempered with policy.
That may seem to extremists as approach
ing the immoral. But we believe the
wise viii understand and not misjudge
the motive that prompts this utterance.
The advocates of free silver coinage are
clear in their minds that the proper ratio
between the two metals when coined into
money Is 15H or at most l6 to 1. They
have good reasons and ages OF experience
on which to base their conclusion. The
most radical among them, filled with this
conviction, cry out "No compromise, no
change of the ratio, let us have what is
right or nothing!"
Prudence will suggest that if it is
found to be impossible to secure what is
exactly just, it is better to yield little
and gain something than to stand stiff
and lose everything. 1t looks just now
to be almost certain that the SHERMAN
law, or that part of it which requires the
monthly purchase of 4, 800, GOO ounces OF
silver. will be repealed. All parties seem
to be agreed that its abolition would be a
good thing, ii something acceptable to
the majority can be made 10 take its
place. A free coinage bill at the ratio of
TO to in all probability cannot be en-
acted. The opposition to it is too great
to be overcome. Why, then, should not
q modification in the ratio be made if that
viii bring about sufficient harmony of
purpose to restore silver as money?
But the radical supporters of silver are
already denounciEg everything in the
nature of compromise. - They have
only hard sayings for western men who
think part of q loaf better than no bread
They would rather see silver remain in its
dehased condition than lift it up near to
its right position if they cannot place it
back on its throne at one bound. They
are doing damage to the silver cause.
They are spreading division in the silver
ranks They are giving aid and comfort
TO the enemy.
1t is necessary that the friends of silver
should come to a common understanding
on this vital question. They cannot now
convert the country to their views. Why
not proceed by degrees? Let the people
who believe silver to be really worth less
than formerly see that its supporters are
willing to meet them part way, and many
of them viii come forward and join in a
conservative plan to establish stable BIZ
metallic policy. Why not be wise. and
falling to gain everything strive to secure
something2

Medical Examinations.
Edltor oil The HERALp:

To the Editor OF The HERALD:
Has the Medical Board abrogated the
eleventh section of the medical law? And
can a nom graduate who has been only
five years in the United States be admit
ted to examination before the board and
receive a certificate for a ten years prac-
tice? Please answer through your col
umnS.
The foregoing has been received from
southern city 1t seems almost unneces
sary to reply further than to say no to
both questions. The medical board of
examiners has not the power to abrogate
law or any part of a law. Section
eleven of the act to regulate the practice
of medicine requires OF non graduates
of medical colleges continuous prac-
tice for ten years in this territory
before the board can give them a certifi
cate. That needs no explanation. Five
years residence in the United States will
not answer. Nor will ten years unless
the practice has been for that time in Utah.
The board cannot legally issue certifi
cate to non graduates on less than ten
years practice unless it be for the prac-
tice of obstetrics only. Practice in the
er ritory previous to March 10, 1892, en-
titles the practitioner to license for that
purpose, on furnishing satisfactory evil
dence of such practice and paying fee of
one dollar.
The question of the validity of the act
requiring these qualifications for the
practice of medicine is pending before the
courts on appeal. 1t is by no means a
settled subject. Whatever reasons there
may be why none but qualified per-
sons shall DE permitted to act as physi-
clans, it is doubtful whether discrimina-
ton can be made in the laws against one
particular profession.
The matter will soon be taken up, no
doubt, and able counsel will present the
case on both sides. A ruling from the
Supreme court of the territory will most
likely be had before the question is def
nitely determined.

The Rain Fakir's Failure.

MELBOURNE, the rain fakir, has finally
given up his job st Cheyenne. He was
under contract to produce rain within
ten days for lump sum. He went up
into the dome of the Wyoming capitol
building and was out of sight all that
time and more, but not drop OF rain fell
within the limit prescribed. He perse-
vered and stayed nearly three weeks.
when he was supposed to be sweating if
not swearing over his exertions, but how
ever much moisture he exerted himself
he could get none from the clouds. So he
came down from his lofty perch last Tues
Gay looking pale and tired and announced
he was going to take good long sleep.
He did not want to talk to any one.
Faith in rain making by artificial
methods is not at premium in Wyom-
ing. MELBoURNE's followers are now
not to be counted. He managed to gain
some believers in his powers by appar-
entity manipulating the clouds at favor
able times and obtaining some showers.
But this Cheyenne test was too much for
him and for them.
In dry season and an arid climate,
when ordinarily no rain can be reason
ably expected, are the time and place
where rain manufacture would be yalu.

sun burns down from cloudless sky, in
Utah, or Wyoming or Arizona, if MEL
BOURNE or any other person can work up
the clouds and make them burst to re-
fresh the parched and thirsty soil, great
rewards will be ready for the worker of
such wonder.
What MELBOURNE may claim to have
done In Australia, or in any state of the
Union where rain in summer is not I'M
common, does not count. The test IN
der which he has failed is the crucial one.
He has been weighed in the true balance
and has been found wanting. He had
better pack that carpet sack which con-
tains his purported hidden mystery, and
try to make dollars out of rain in some
other locality than the arid region of the
Woolly west.

IT BEGINS to look as though it will turn
out that the poetic eulogy of WILKES
BOOTH, which has been credited to Min
lister TERRELL, was not written by him.
When published by 'tBrick'' PoMERoY
in his La Crosse paper, October 1857, the
person who sent it stated it was written
by Chicaaoan. There were few men OF
the South who held the sentiments ex-
pressed in the poem lauding BOOTH, and
only such cranks as PoMERoY aud HENRY
CLAY DEAN Endorsed them in the mort b !.
If Judge TERRELL was the author, no
doubt he has long since been ashamed of
the production.

ONES FLESH creeps when reading of

lucky who, after committing the most
horrible of crimes, was overtaken and
brought back to the scene of his
