WHAT Is THE MATTER.

DR.. McNiece seems to be angry with
somebody for giving information TO a
representative Of The Herald, as TO a
discussion which took place among the
ministers of this city on the statehood
lquestion. 1t seems he has talked to a
Tribune reporter and has put a card
in the News. He could have had all
the space he wanted in The Herald in
Irefutation of anything that appeared
in The Herald, but he has seen fit TO
complain of this paper elsewhere, with
out attempting any rectification in the
paper to which he takes exceptions.
If DR.. McNiece said all that is attri-
buted to him in the Tribune he has
not added to his reputation for wisdom.
We do not believe he is to be debited
with all that nonsense. But his card
in the News is over his signature and
is open toscriticism. However, we are
not disposed to be hypercritlcal SO will
only touch upon it briefly.
| It is difficult to understand what the
gentleman really complains of. He
seems 10 object to the word contest
The Herald did not use the term, but
what difference is there in the public
mind between that and his own word
discussion viii he deny that the
question under discussion" and ON
which there was IAN exchange of
views was the statehood project?
Was he not on a committee that pre-
pared the question to be submitted for
discussion? Was not vote taken on
the matter? Did it not stand so nearly
even that the subject was shelved in
the interest of harmony? In view of all
the facts. has not Dr. NIcNiece ex-
hibited unnecessary anxiety about the
matter? Why is he so agitated over
the publicity given to proceedings
which have provoked no unfavorable
comment as yet from anybody?
We are of the opinion that the gen.
tlemen from whom The Herald OBJ
tanned its information are entitled to
the appellation of honorable" equally
with the gentleman who casts a reflec-
ton upon their status. exalted as his
view may be of the term and of his
own position And looking carefully
over our reporters statement in the
| light of the Dr's. card, it appears that
| it was substantially correct and its in
Iaccuracies, if any, were entirely unim-
portant as to the main question in
lvolved. The Herald was pleased that the
clergy of the city were apparently SO
friendly to the statehood movement.
Does DR.. NcNiece wish it to be under
stood that he is not among those who
wish liberty to come Immediately to
Utah? If not, what is the matter
with him anyhow?

A SWEET IDEA.

1t has been the custom for many
years of the leading grocery establish
ments in this city to give their regular
customers a Christmas present, usually
in the shape of candy or some similar
tseasonable commodity. It is proposed
this year to give the amount that
would be thus distributed in some suit
able goods to the poor of the city.
This we look upon as a very sensible
thing to do. 1t was prompted by pure
benevalence. We believe the public
will approve and appreciate the move
Iment. Good will come of it in two di-
rections: A large number of poor peo-
pie viii receive relief Less candy viii
be consumed by the children which will
be no harm TO their health and they
can be taught the virtue Of sacrifice in
aid Of the needy.
The number of people who need as
|sistance in this city is greater this
year than ever before. Extraordinary
measures are necessary for their re-
lief This measure will aid in the good
work. 1t would cost z. c. NJ. I. in the
Ineighborhood of $500 to make all the
Christmas presents usually distributed
by that firm. That divided among the
charitable organizations will be great
help. and if other establishments do the
same in proportion to their business,
the aggregate amount dispensed to the
poor this Christmas viii be very re-
spectacle.
We think no customer who has us
ually received package of candy at
Christmas from the grocer, will COM
plain at not having the usual Xmas
gift, in consideration of the fact that
the poor gain the benefit And while
some candy will have TO be bought for
the little folks, if the quantity is made
smaller, and they are impressed with
the virtue of charity and the fact that
they are doing something to afford re-
lief to the destitute, we believe the re-
suits viii be very beneficial. The pro-
motors Of this change are to be highly
commended.
