OF weeds, it would have been a more
valuable paper. However, he may in a
future number of the Magazine come to
that part of the subject. The Utah Mdga-
zinc is TO pass into the personal manage
ment OF DIR. JOHN r. PARK. late principal
OF the University, and we may confidently
look for some interesting changes in its
contents.
The weed subject is one that ought to
be kept prominently before our farmers
and gardeners, and if the gentlemen who
have the oversight Of the streets in this
city and roads in this county were to do
little towards the great labor of weed
destruction, the land tillers would have
an easier time Of it and the appearance OF
both city and county would be vastly i'm
proved. Atpresent it often looks toward
fall as if the weeds would take the whole
territory. Let everybody who can, join
in the good work of exterminating the
weeds

HON. JAMES H. BLoUNT, OF Georgia,
who has been commissioned to visit the
Hawaiian islands specially to inquire into
and report upon the state of feeling there
relative to annexation, is well equipped
for the duty. He was chairman of the
committee on foreign affairs OF the last
House of Representatives, and has been a
member of the committee for several
years. He has been retained as an at
tache of the State department in some
thing like the same capacity as that OF
the late Mr.. FOSTER whilst BLAINE was
at the head. The country win feel as
sured that his report will be an impartial
as well as an able one, and it will be
awaited with interest.

Orr Neighbor.

The Tribune still insists that it was very
comical for THE HERALD to publish the
statement OF a correspondent concerning
the small cost of copper works in several
places, compared with the estimated cost
of the refinery to be established here for a
bonus of 100000. That is to say; it is
very funny when paper publishes any
thing that correspondent furnishes
which some people may think is errone-
Gus or which may be incorrect. By that
rule the Tribune is the most comical paper
in the United States.
1t further tries to make it appear that
THE HERALD "did what it could to
utterly demcralize the subscription fund,
to make Mr.. GREEN angry and if posi-
bic to drive him away" which merely
goes to prove that the Tribune is what it
wanted THE HERALD to call the Denver
correspondent.
That sheet is good enough to say that
there is no other paper (neighbor) like
THE HERALD in the world. Thanks.
We modestly accept the encomium. There
are and have been many like the Tribune
in the world, and they flourish for awhile
but are soon forgotten. Unreliable,
abusive and boastful, their value and
character are readily estimated and every
thing they say is regarded with suspicion
and dubiety. Our neighbor is of the
|scolding gossip stamp.

Who Are The Brigadiers2

We notice in some of our country con-
temporaries illusions. meant to be more
or less humorous, to the large number of
Southern brigadiers of short residence''
in Utah, who are said to be in extreme
agitation over the Offices and who it is
said twill have to be provided for by the
administration
OF course such papers claim to be Re-
publican in politics, though their ideas
of government are often of sort that
Republicans as we'll as Democrats would
refuse to recognize as American. They
appear to copy the s'Brigadier' notion
one from the other, obtaining it origi-
nally from the Liberal organ in this city.
Well, who are these newly arrived
Brigadiers? How many who are thus
designated ever served or claim to have
served in the southern army? Please give
US their names and the reason for dub
bing them with this military title.
We presume there are a number of
Democrats in Utah who expect to obtain
some Office under the new administration.
As politics go, we do not know that
there is anything reprehensible in that.
That the Office should seek the man we.
most of US, agree-in theory. But when
it comes to practice there seems to be no
difference between Democrats and Re-
phblicans, except that we have
noticed during the prevalence of
Republican rule that many of the
politicians of that party would not
wait for the official terms of some OF their
own party friends to run ont, but would
lay the wires to work for their removal
that the wire pullers might step into their
shoes.
But where is the necessity on the part
of the administration to provide for these
gentlemen, whether they are Brigadiers
or otherwise? We do not think it is per-
ceptible TO the powers that be at Wash
ington. We do not believe it exists ex-
cept in the sentences which the papers
that publish them seem to mistake for
wit.
There will be some offices vacant that
are now held by Republicans. They will
most likely be filled with Democrats. A
few gentlemen who think themselves
adapted for them and who have
been consistent supporters of the
Democratic party, are candidates for
those places. That is their right. Some

Wheat and Silver.

A correspondent of our morning con-
temporary bases an alleged argument on
the statement that The HERALD Sun
dertakes to say that the present low price
of wheat is caused, not by the low price
OF silver but by over production. On
our neighbours theory about correspond
ence, this must be taken for its own
statement and argument.
As The HERALD has not said anything
about production, there is no need
to take notice OF anything that is predi-
Gated on the assertion that it has. There
is an argument however, in the same
connection which we will briefly allude
to. 1t is this: ''As an ounce of silver
buys bushel of wheat whether that
ounce of silver is worth SO.S5 or 81. 1929,
and the interest due on mortgage being
payable in gold, the farmer who has to
sell wheat to get gold with which to pay
interest loses the difference between 50. S5
and 81. 1921
In the first place, there is financial, or
agricultural or other law, which fixes
the market value of bushel of wheat in
this country as the value of an ounce of
silver. That is ratio that has been
fixed up in the minds eye of some of the
extreme silver theorists.
In the next place, mortgages do not
generally contain a specific agreement
that the interest shall be paid IN gold.
The farmers who have had to mortgage
their land so extensively in consequence
of oppressive Republican financial
measures, are not obliged to pay the in
terest on those mortgages in wheat; they
can dispose of other produce. If they do
pay that interest in wheat, whether in
grain or by selling it, there is no rule
that regulates its price by the price of an
ounce of silver. If a farmer gets the
market value CT his wheat in currency,
that will be just as good at the bank, or
in payment of the interest on his mort
gage as if it was coin. Silver currency
passes as good as gold currency. The
selling of wheat to get gold is not neces-
sary, and the farmer does not lose "a cent
in the transaction because of the differ
ence trumped up between SIS cents and
s1.2s.
1t is such arguments as these that dis
gust people who do not see the right side
OF the silver question. If they are to be
converted, it must be by hard sense and
plain facts. Groundless hypothesis, ir-
rational deductions, wild statements and
thin theories. must naturally do more
harm than good with thinking people.
The restoration of silver as money al
ratio with gold which can be agreed
upon by the best fnanciers of the coun-
try-associated with those of other coun-
tries, if necessary-is an object worthy OF
achievement. 1t may be accomplished
by sound reasoning and correct figure:
bearing on the question, but Will be put
farther off by the crazy imaginings anc
absurd statements in which some silver
fanatics so often indulge.

men wouldn't ask for an Office if they
wanted it ever SO eagerly. Others would;
that Is the difference. But it often hap
pens that Republicans who think it
very funny or very unseemly for
Democrat to seek an appointment,
will do the very same thing themselves
when power changes hands and oppor-
tunity offers.
We see no room for jeering or cersure
on this matter just now. But be that as
it may, will our would-be witty contem-
poraries please name the many southern
brgadiers' newly settled here who are
running wild after the offices?

Mrs. ANNA PERKINS, an old lady of
st. Louis, whose father was an ensign in
WILLIAM HENRY HARRIsoN's army dur
ing the war of 1912, says she has often
heard him assert, on what he declared
was indubitable proof. that it was Col.
WHEETLY, and not Col. DICK JOHNSON,
who killed TEcUMsEH. Col. w. fought
that day with Kentucky rife, which
carried very heavy bullet. He was
afterwards killed by the Indians.

The Duty OR Tin.

It seems that the Republicans in the
United States Senate defeated the passage
OF the bill repeating the duty on tin. 1t
was supposed that there would be no OPP
position to it in the Senate, as there was
practically none in the House, and it was
almost universally conceded that the i'm
position of four cents a pound by the
MCKINLEY bill was great blunder. and
that it injured the party which levied it
and tried to deceive the public about it
during the presidential campaign.
After July /, 1898 the duty will be col
lected on this metal until the new Con-
gress can meet and revive the meas
ure for its repeal. Between now and
July, the importation of tin to be used IN
American manufacturers will no doubt be
large, in contemplation of the increase in
the cost of this raw material. 1t is largely
used in the solder for the manufacture of
timed goods particularly in the canning
industry. 1t is also used in many metal
liz AUTHORIZATIONS, III OSAA 1uC1dAs ooOOAe
metal, Britannia metal, and some kind OF
''silver plated" goods.
OF course the quantity used in the man
ufacture of sheet tin, commonly called tin
plates, which are sheet iron coated with
tin, is but small in this country because
the pretended great tin plate industry
fostered by the Mckinley bill was sham.
But the manufacturers who use the metal
were strongly DESTROYS OF the repeal of
this four cents pound tax on an import
that had been on the free list for twenty
one years.
The only reason that can be seen for the
defeat of the measure in the Senate is the
idea that it would be a confession OF i'm
perfection in the tariff bill. which had
been exalted by the Republicans as the
ne Plus ultra of party wisdom and fnan-
cial prudence. The country understands
the matter pretty clearly, and it would
have been better for the disciples of the g
o. p. to have repaired this error than tc
hold on to it in the face of the proofs that
it is wrong.
