The Democratic Philadelphia Record does
not accept the denial of Senator Harris,
President of the Senate. of the statement
to the effect that he did not believe the
Vice President would live If. acting in COM
pliance with the expressed will of the ma

the Senator and President of the Senate

the threat 1t would have been better for
him to have confessed it, as it is very silly
for him to deny making the threat. Isham
c. Harris is one Of the Senator'S who can
i'll afford to talk of violence in the Senate.
He is the man who, as Governor of Ten
nessee called the Legislature together to
take that State out of the Union after the
people had declared against secession by
$1,000 majority Driven out of the State by
the advance of the Union armies, he went
over to the Confederacy, where he remained
until the close Of the war, when he went to
Mexico, where he lived in exile a year or
States Senate. His party has made him
President pro tenn, and now, as one Of the
minority, he is telling what he and others
would do If the majority should direct the
Vice President to put vote. He is still
revolutionist. The attitude of Senators Nor

ening. The Chicago Times. calling atten-
ton to the boast of the former that he saw
service in the cause of rebellion, cautions
the Senator as follows:
The Democratic party cannot hope to con-
tinue its ascendency in the North. it's place

gain foothold in other of the great common

Sam and assuming to direct which way he
shall go.
When Democratic papers begin to talk
about ''unrepentant rebels we may be
sure that a people in the North rather
jealous of it's loyalty to the Union will be
watching the boastful ex-rebel Senators
very closely. ri

The Board of Public Works acted wisely
In reducing the rate of wages to be paid to
laborers the streets and other public i'm
provements. There is no reason why the
city should pay more than the ruling price
for labor or more than contractors pay.
The rate fixed by the board is $3.50 per day
OF eight hours. This is good wages for
unskiied labor. The effect of the reduction
will be to give the city more laborers for
its money. besides giving employment to a
larger number OF persons which, in times
like these, when so many are seeking en-
ployment, is an important consideration.

The Constitution of Kansas provides that
a county must poll $50 votes to be entitled
to member Of the Legislature and that,
should the total vote fall below 200 at any
general election, the county shall not be en-
titled to a Representative Under these pro-
visions 1t is found that six counties in the
southern part of the State have been so
far depopulated by the exodus into Chero-

ForeStrT.

The new secretary of agriculture is
known to have some pronounced views
on forestry. That is one qualification he
possesses for the Office to which he has
been appointed. He announces his in
tention to devote much attention to tree
culture; he will also see to the preserya-
ton of the forests of the country so far as
practicable.
We look for more enlightened policy
from him, and from other officials in the
present administration, than that which
has been at times pursued in reference to
the mountain regions where timber is alb
solutely needed for mining as well as gem
eral building purposes. If the country
we're denuded of its forests that would be
a great calamity. But they may be pre-
served where necessary without such
strict applications OF the law and of that
policy as would hinder the progress and
development of new regions and the mines
Of the west.
The planting of trees for forests on the
barren lands, that is those unsuitable for
agriculture, would be boon to such re-
gions. More trees mean a greater rain
fall. That means increased vegetation
and finer crops. Mr.. Morton will do a
good work in promoting the planting and
growth of forests, and his official efforts
ought to be supplemented by individual
planting. DON'T forget Arbor day.

The Arid Lands.

The Democrats of Wyoming, or a ma
iority Of them at any rate, seem to be
strongly opposed to the ceding of the arid
lands to the respective states and terri
tories. They claim that it is scheme to
turn over these lands to the cattle barons
and other rich men, and to corporations
that have not the welfare OF the people at
heart. They claim that the intent of the
proposition is to parcel GU. those lands in
large blocks to wealthy parties and The
freezing out of other settlers.
This is not the view that has been taken
of the matter in Utah, unless it be by a
few persons who fear the same or similar
results. We are aware that one thing
held against the late Senator WARREN in
his own state was his bill for ceding the
arid lands. But it appears to very large
number of thoughtful people on this
slope that the provisions of bill for this
purpose could be SO shaped that both
public and private interests shall be pre-
served, and the millions of acres now
worthless can be turned to use, and made
to contribute to human and animal sup
port and a source of revenue to the local
governments.
This is an important question. 1t will
be brought forward as soon as Congress
shall again convene. And both it's friends
and foes ought 10 prepare themselves with
facts and figures and arguments so that

One Thing NeedfuI.

THE HERALD has never opposed sewer
age in this city. There would be no need
to say this if it were not for the falsehood
of a contemporary. Nobody connected
with THE HERALD has opposed sewerage.
This paper has always been opposed to
dumping the filth of the city into the
Jordan river and it has not changed its
views on the subject. What The HERALD
predicted when the plan of sewer dis
charge now condemned was mooted
has come to pass. It's inconsiderate
neighbor was then, as now, beside itself
with rancor whenever its crude notions
were questioned
The expensive gravity system now con :
templated has at least the merit Of
efficiency. The plan adopted is not of
sufficient utility to dispose of the sewage
from the small district now supplied with
pipes. That demonstrates it's incapacity
for the needs of this large and growing
city. THE HERALD was right in its atti-
tude on that question at the first, and the
attempt to misrepresent it only comes
back on the head of its maligner.
We trust there will be no more mistakes
of this kind. What is done now must be
commenced with vie,v TO the expected
needs of the entire city. in this respect
the gravity system recommends itself to
the consideration of the citizens.
We suppose what we are about to say
on this matter will be viewed as cap
ital crime by our captious neighbor. We
believe the sewerage question is of more
importance than the Boulevard We
think the public funds will be put to bet
ter use inextending sewerage and render
ing what we have more effective than in
making one thoroughfare for the benefit
of some real estate dealers and a few other
folks and keeping it in order for pleasure
seekers. We share the views of the ma
jority of the people of this city on this
subject.
We are not afflicted with boulevard on
the brain, SO we have regard for other
and more important matters. We would
be pleased to see fine streets, splendid
drives and every needed improvement
here. We want them badly, but we need
sewerage more. The city authorities are
responsible to the taxpayers for their ex-
penditure OF public funds, and we voice
the public demand when we say give us
first the things that are needed most.
Utility and necessity before surplusage
and adornment.

boulevard scheme, but has simply ex-
pressed the views OF whole lot of tax
payers and asked for little information
on matters connected with it in which
every citizen is Interested. By way of
answer we get-the essence of politeness
and engineering science displayed in the

other lucid remarks OF the Tribune.
THE HERALD is of the opinion that The
original cost OF the boulevard as esti-
mated is but small part of the expense
it will entail on somebody. The whole
matter ought to be understood before the
undertaking is begun The disposition
shown by the Tribune to shuttle over this

who asks for light on it, is an indication
that there is something about it that pre-
fers darkness. Again we say, referring
