Electricity In Photography.

One Of the greatest difficulties that the
photographer has 20 contend with is the
preservation OF the natural expression Of
the sitter for the period of exposure.
Notwithstanding that this period has
been greatly shortened in various ways,
particularly by the adoption of the mag
nesium light in Photographic practice,
nervousness plays such n large part in
the temperament of the great majority
of those who are anxious TO hand down
their presentments TO posterity that the
operator has often found the interval
even too prolonged for the accomplish
ment of his perfect work.
This difficulty has been overcome by
Herr Haag in Stuttgart by means of a
change in the management of the mag
ncsium light. Herr Haag has made some
lightning cartridges. which cause ire
mendous development of light and are
set alight in one-tenth of second by
means of electricity. New York Tele-

The PeOple Demand II.

1t is a little strange that certain radical
Republican organs still insist that the
country has gone wrong on the tariff
question. They advance the idea that the
masses are afflicted with sort of political
lunacy. That, we suppose, is on the
same principle of alteration by which an
insane person is led to think that other
people are crazy.
Some Of the former protectionist papers
have come to their senses. They see
the mistake OF the high tariff advocates
and acknowledge the errors of McK1N-
LEYIsM. They recognize the fact that
the country is overwhelmingly in favor
of change of policy, and are not SO
egotistical as to think that they know
better than the vast majority of the citi-
zens what is needed for the common good.
The Spokane, Washington Chronicle
says that in that state custom house tax

raising revenue and limited strictly to the
necessities of an economically admins

absorbing, far-reaching element of politi-
cal life.' Also that whether that is
sound doctrine or profound error.

That paper affirms that ''three- fourths
of the people of Washington are in favor

demand it, the Populists favor it, and
''a very large number OF the Republicans
of the state think the same way Also
if poll OF the legislature now in session
could be taken simply on that question.
"a majority would be found voicing the
peoples demand.''
That is the popular sentiment in other
states. Even strong protectionists share
the opposition against the high tariff
which it becomes the duty OF the Demo-
cratic party to reform. Let no wild and

The Tin Plate Sham.

| On Tuesday, the bill introduced by Mr..
SPRINGER providing that after July LIST,
1893, pig tin shall be admitted into the
United States free of duty, was passed in
the House OF Representatives without a
dissenting voice. The report says ''there
was not the slightest opposition to the
biIl.' Its passage was recommended by
the Ways and Means committee ana was
favored by number of manufacturing
institutions whose business was crippled
because the raw material could not be
obtained in this country.
How do our Republican friends relish
this piece of tin news? During the last
political campaign tin plate shared
with wire nails the chief place in
the addresses wherewith they tried
to deceive the American people. In Utah
tin plate, wire nails, free wool and free
lead were the topics touched upon in every
Republican harangue, and tin plate was
one OF the chief features in every Repub-
lican paper.
When Democrats told the truth in re-
gard to the matter, and exposed the frauds
by which it was made to appear that the
MCKINLEY tariff had procured the estab-
/ lishment of vast tin works in this country.
they were denounced as enemies to Amer
lean manufactures and as ''tin plate
liars.'' When news came of the tenn
porary closing down of tin plate estab-
/ lishment in Wales, throwing number of
people out of employment, Republican
Threats were made hoarse with joyful ac-
carnations, for it seemed that British suf-
fering meant American pleasure, on their
peculiar rules of reasoning.
The facts are that the tin plate preten-
sions of the Republican party during that
political struggle were the hollowest kind
of sham. 1t appears that up to the time
OF the passage of the SPRINGER bill the
total amount of tin ever produced in the
United States was two hundred and fifty
tons. A small amount of this came from
Harney's Peak, the rest from the Temes
cal mines. Both are now closed up.
The MCKINLEY tariff is four cents a
pound on foreign bar tin. In 1892 90, :
GOO 600 pounds Of the metal was imported.
That was 81, 600, 900 of tax to make
capital for the protectionists in their
crusade against what they called
s'free trade.' 1t was such fraud
that the very firms which then supported
it have been compelled to admit their
error, and have declared, with the repre-
sentatives Of the tin plate works and the
canning factories, that it is useless to ex-
pect any product from alleged American
tin mines.
Whether the SPRINGER bill can be put
through the Senate or not is matter of
great doubt, seeing that the session is
nearly at an end. Probably it will not be
brought to vote but will have to be at
tended to at the next session. The tin
plate sham and others from the same
source will soon have to go under, for

A Note OF Warming.

Several cased of infantlclde have re-
Gently come to light in this city and its
vicinity. They indicate the decadence OF
the high standard of morality which Utah
people have claimed for this territory
We are told that abortion is also becom-
ing not infrequent and that there are
medical men here who aid in this crime
with little fear OF the consequences.
This condition of affairs is lamentable.
Whether it is exaggerated or not, there is
evidently enough in it to attract attention
from those who desire the purity OF ou1
social affairs. Something ought to be
done, if possible, to check the grow
ing evil. There should be earnest
and persistent efforts to trace UP
these crimes and fix them upon
the guilty parties. Severe punishment
should follow conviction of such offenses.
They should not be handled with kid
gloves, but taken hold of with vigor-
Gus and determined grasp.
Licentiousness is destructive of a
nation, and the practices that abound in
the great centers OF modern civilization
are disgraceful to the age and the coun-
try. Legal penalties are not sufficient to
deter the criminally inclined, but they
ought to be strenuously enforced.
There is something behind all that
which is more potent. 1t is the incul-
cation of virtue, its encouragement and
protection, and that repugnance to vice
which should be planted deep in the
male as well as the female heart.
In the chastest home there will be
sometimes found pollution. But as a
rule, where correct principles are taught
and good example is to be seen the effect
will be purity OF act and sentiment.
There is too much freedom allowed to
the young people OF this community
They are permitted to do chiefly as they
please to. There is very little restraint,
and where it is exercised, parents are
thought to be over strict and DESTROYS OF
curtailing the liberty of their children.
1t will be found necessary to make a
change. Not that there should be excess
Of supervision or denial OF proper
recreation. But there will have to
be closer rules and more rigid
watch over the youth OF both
sexes, or many more hearts will
ache than are now filled with sorrow over
the follies and waywardness of the rising
generation This community ought to
set its face like flint against condoning
the corruptions OF the times, and against
the introduction of those practices which
undermined the strength of former great
nations and that worked their decay and
ultimate dissolution. What ruined an
Gent Rome will destroy as great modern
people.

Weapons of Destruction.

Utah has lately moved rapidly forward
in the field of invention. That is very
encouraging. In early times the ques-
ton was asked of people in this territory
where are your painters, sculptors, ar
fists and inventors? Utah can now point
with pride" to celebrated persons in art
and science who first saw the light in
these once solitary valleys of the noun
tains. =
In the Age Of Steel we find notice of
an invention which shows that Utah is to
the front in the arts of war as well as
those of peace. A new repeating gun has
been tested at New Haven, by the Win
chester company, which fired 800 shots a
minute. The only gun in existence that
approaches it in rapidity is the Maxim
machine gun which fires $50 shots per
minute.
The gun with the highest record,
namely 900 minute. is the invention of
the BROWNING Brothers of Ogden and
Salt Lake, who have invented several i'm
proyements in small arms and appear to
be singularly gifted in that direction.
They are s'Utah boys and are evidence
that this Territory produces something
more than sage and silver, carrots and
sorghum.
The production of destructive weapons
does not seem at first sight desirable aim
for human effort. But war is fact in
this world and factor in the sum OF its
progress. 1t appears to be occasionally
a necessary evil. At any rate that self
defense which is styled ''the first
law of nature'' calls for inventions
like those OF the BRowNINGs as a
patriotic necessity. And anything
which will aid in bringing about con-
dition of things that Will prevent war by
the very terrors that are invoked will
tend to hasten the day of general peace.
With projectiles, the initial velocity of
which, according to the Age, is now 'wen
beyond half mile a second" the pene-
trating agency OF which ''varies from 200
to 300 foot-tons per pound OF powder, and
momentum OF $4,000 foot-tons," hurI-
ing mass OF steel with "a destructive
power like that of the average railway
collision, and weapon like that of the
Brownings, firing 900 shots a minute, it

fare is keeping pace with other progress
sive movements, and that peace will not
long hence be secured by the terrible pre-
parauions that are made for war.

One of the fallacies still entertained by
a great many otherwise well informed
working people is that machinery is a foe
to labor. They look only at immediate
effects and at local results, and do not
perceive the ultimate and general benefits
which it produces. A piece Of machinery
may be introduced which dispenses with
the work of a few hands, but its very
production employs others, cheapens ar
ticles in common use and opens new fields
for human toll.
United States Labor Commissioner CAR
ROLL d. WRIGHT has done much, by the
collection of statistics and the production
of facts, to do away with the erroneous
notions that prevail on this point. The
data that have been obtained show
that the introduction of machinery has
added to the sum of human comfort. 1t
has shortened the hours OF labor. 1t has
greatly increased the rates of wages. 1t
has not made harder the struggle for
human existence but has operated dis
tlnctly in an opposite direction.
In England where machinery is used SO
extensively the greatest ratio exists of un-
employed people to the total population.
In Russia where it is least IN use there is
the greatest ratio of the unemployed.
That speaks loudly on this important
question.
1t is certainly true that the dire effects
which have always been foreshadowed
when new machinery has been invented
to simplify labor, have not followed its
Introduction, but that the condition of
working people has been vastly improved
even if that advancement is not admitted
to have been directly caused by the use of
improved machinery, it cannot be denied
that the progress has been made in COM
pany with its adoption and in contradic
ton to its predicted results.
There are many people out OF work in
both hemispheres. That is undeniabIe.
But it is also true that the sufferings of
the unemployed were even greater before
the machinery epoch than now; that the
scale of wages was lower; that the price
of provisions was as high and that the
cost of living was greater in comparison
with the facilities for obtaining it. Ma
chinery has been the sign and the spring
of national and Industrial improvement
and progress, and it has been as much
the benefactor OF the working people who
opposed it as of any other class of people
in the world.

against the United States in the court OF

has a solid foundation.
