TAX REDUCTION AND RETRENCH
MENT.

The HERALD is in receipt of the an
nexed communication, which is COM
mended to the consideration of the city
council and county court.
To the Editor of THE HERALD:
Considering the times, the difficulty of
obtaining money, the scarcity of employ
ment and the PROBABILITY that the condi-
ton of affairs generally may not ma
terially improve during the next few
months, would it not be wise that %
per cent. reduction in values be made
upon all city and county assessments.
The stringency of the money market and
the financial condition of the people
generally. do not admit of such heavy
and burdensome taxes at the present
time. While values have largely dropped
from last year the taxes in very many
cases. ii not in all, are equally as high.
1t is time OF retrenchmenta and economy,
and public extravaganza is the most TO be
deplored of all excuses. Those who have
been selected by the people 80 govern and
control affairs should see to it that the
strlctest economy compatible with good
government should be insisted upon.
The salaries OF the city and county officers
should be cut down and all expenses that
can be dispensed with should be dropped.
In short, let economy be the watch word.
people as il is possible under thetryinp
circumstances under which we are pass
ing. ECoNoMIsT.
We are aware that there are some people
who will claim that after the assessment
is made and the rate OF taxation is fixed.
there can be no change made in the way
suggested in the foregoing communica-
ton. But that it can be done is sufi-
GENTLY attested by the fact that it has
been done in many places. Park City
has quite recently made reduction of
ten per cent.
1t is not with much confidence. how
ever, that we publish the letter and direct
attention to the requests itconfains. The
present city council, while exhibiting a
large appetite for revenue. has not had
much stomach for retrenchment, par
ticularly as it may touch the personal in
| terests OF the members and their official
| friends. But that the extravaganza
which has marked the administration of
our municipal affairs must stop. is a de-
mand which they would do well to
heed. And if they want to gain
favor with the voting people OF
this city, or to escape some
OF the odium which has attached to their
doIngs, they should make an effort to cut
down the taxes SO that The people gener-
ally may be able to pay.
| 1t is considered by some OF our citizens
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1893-07-30

The alarmists who have done much to
bring about the depression in trade which
affiicts the country, continue to place the
blame fer it all upon tie present admin
istration and the change wrought by the
election of last November. as we have
repeatedly shown. we are reaping the
fruits Of Republican sowing. and the dis
asters that have come upon the land are
the elimination OF evils arising from Re-
publican legislation and policy, which
there has not yet been opportunity to re-
form, but which will be reformed in due
time.
As to tina dread which is still said to be
the cause of prostration in many branches
of business, our protectionist friends
ought to try to be little more consistent.
1t is the people of this country who de-
cided that they would have a change.
They expressed that decision at the polls
in the election of Democratic House of
representatives, and again by making
both the legislature and executive
branches OF the government Democratic.
They decided on policy of tariff reform
and the retirement of the Republican
party and its high protection was the
peoples work.
Now these Republicans want it to be
understood that it is the fear of tariff re-
form which the people have determined
upon which frightens these same people
and ruins trade. The people want re-
form but are SO afraid of it that they stop
buying and selling and manufacturing in
dread of what they have twice empnati-
cally declared they would have.
This nonsense ought TO be seen
in its true light by every body. II
is an absurdity on its false face.
1t is an attempt to shift from the
party of extravaganza, high protection
for a class, and unsound finance,
the responsibility for the troubles which
their conduct OF public affairs has
brought upon the country. The cause OF
these evils has been at work for years
the effects are now being felt. AS soon
as possible the cause will be removed and
the evil effects will follow. But to tauni
the reforming party with the results o.
the work of their predecessors is the
height of impudence. the essence of in
consistency, the characteristic of radical
Republication.

ut becomes worth while to ask the
question whether the scholastic type OF
preacher is, after all, the most potent in
the pulpit. We know that the practical
man of affairs, the merchant, statesman
or lawyer, is not bookworm. He is a
student of men and of events. The most
important social and religious questions
of the day were handled with amazing
influence by Magee and Wilberforce.
Yet neither of them relied upon large and
ever increasing stores OF learning for his
power. What they did rely upon and
what Phillips Brooks relied upon, was a
clear sighted common sense, high
ideal and careful study OF the
needs and aspirations of those they
| addressed. Their original vigor OF
mind their intellectual independence,t their
| spontaneity of emotion were not checked
OF oppressed Dy Inc weight OF learning
lumber. The principles of the doctrine
of Christ were less subjects for irtellec-
tual discussion than for earnest feeling.
| When, therefore, the need is SO often as
serted OF learning in a preacher, let it be
remembered that sometimes the spark of
fire may be put out by the excess OF fuel
heaped up over it. Men can obtain theo-
logical information from the books that
are so rapidly accumulating; and they
need not look to the pulpit for fine drawn
disquisitions, for exhaustive statements.
But strength OF conviction, purity OF
purpose and enthusiasm, when they APP
pear in a preacher who knows his own
mind and his own people, produce an
effect that is irresistible. A bookless
preacher may prove himself power
where, with all the book learning in the
world, man without knowledge of him
self and of the human heart may preach
in vain. ''-Neao York ChurcAmaR (P. Il. }
