the disaster-breeding American legislation of
the last quarter Oi a century in the intrr' st
OF the classes as against the masses, is, that
in 1872 one Ernest Seyd, formerly a director,
and think governor, OF the Bank Of En-
gland, came to this country in the interest
OF foreign holders OF American securiti' $,
with $500 900 and cart blanche to draw as
much more as might be necessary, to secure
through congressional action the demonetiz-
alton of silver The arrival of this Seyd was
announced in the issue of the Congr ssional
Record OF April ., 1S72-'for the demonetiz-
alton Of silver" being the specific stat mcnt;
and in the Bankers Magazine of August, of
the next year, after the passage of the de-
monetization act, the object of Sey DIS com
ing is as specifically stated, with the addi-
tional facts that he had been provided with
the half million to secure the dpmonetiza-
ton of silver which was accomplished and
the public have been given, in regular afiida
Wit form, the testimony OF most credible
citizen, who received the facts from Seyd him
self, that the characterization was effected by

THE SILVER PROBLEM
WHY NOT oeMoNsTIzE GOLD?
The Question of the Day Extensively
Treated-ThousandsO of Millions
Stolen From the People.

Now that the climax of financial tyranny
over the ath-producers of the world has
been reached by the characterization of silver
in India, thus still further contracting the
money volume of the world and increasing
the relative value OF gold, and of all forms of
credit based upon gold, while proportionate-
ly decreasing the profits OF labor and multi
plying the number OF unemployed-in this
part OF the world utterly destroying, for the
time being, one of the most important in
dustries bringing stagnation and distrust to
all lines OF business, and arresting the prog
ressive enhancement of fixed property values,
which always, under normal conditions, ac-
companies increasing population-we should
expect closer and more general attention to
the relating facts of silver characterization.

A GLORIOUS FOURTH
CELEBRATED By MANY TOWNS
Everybody Laid Aside Business Cares
and Had Good Time-Reports
from Different Places.

SPOKANE, July With some noise
and shooting of bombs, an ideal summer
day and plenty of good nature, the
patriots of Spokane enjoyed the glori-
Gus Fourth yesterday.
1t was a day of excursions and per
feet day for such form of recreation
Every train that left the city took It's
cargo of merry picknickers. Every
train that rolled into the depots re-
leased a multitude of sightseers. Coun-
try roads were dotted with wagonettes,
omnibuses and hay racks. Street cars
were crowded, although not comfort
ably so. Railroad trains felt that there
was something more than trecrackers
in the Fourth of July, after all.
Neighboring towns sent full delega-
tions to the big city to see the sights
and attend the races. The station agent
at Rathdrum, Idaho, sold ffty-6ve round
trip tickets to Spokane. The conductor
punched them with smile, for he, too,
was patriot, and the enthusiasm Of his
passengers was infectious.
And the children. They found pleas
ule in the picnic groves that are scat
tered everywhere. The middle OF the
day was as quiet as a Sabbath afternoon
in the city proper.
The street parade of the horses and
bicycllsts had a big audience in the
forenoon. The horses caught the
patriotic spirit, it seemed almost.
Happy Jack reared his magniticently
propoItioned head proudly and next t'
Grand Marshall W. w. d. Turner wa

procession.
The celebration was general. 1t wa
not confined to one class, nor TO favor

and dales were thronged. Minnehah
Park heard merry laughter and tn
snap of crackers as they blended. Mont

had an outing. There were games an

INSUFFICIENT SUPPLY OF SILVER.

When silver was demonttiz d in 1873, had
all the gold and silver in existence been
coin,d together, each at its average valua-
tion throughout the world they would to-

cent. of the money requirement OF the ma

AN IMPORTANT CASE.
Suit Brought to Test the Validity of
Tax Titles.
The City Sued for Pollution of the Jor.
dan-The Pickle Contempt Case-The
Thurgood AIimony-Court Orders.

Joseph T. McNary filed an action
against Mrs. G. M. Hammond in the
Third district court yesterday to quiet the
title to lot 20, block 8, five acre plat A.
in this city valued at about S., 900. The
plaintiff alleges that he originally pur-
chased the property from Samuel Peter
son, ST., and that it was sold for taxes
on January 9. 1891. 1t was purchased by
Mrs. Hammond for $28.37, and title was
assigned to G. M. Hammond. The plant
if alleges that the collector acted illegally
in selling this property and that Mr..
hammond had no right to receive a deed
for it. 1t is also alleged that the plaintiff
has offered the defendants the amount
paid by them for the property with in
terest at the rate of Is per cent. per year,
but the offer was refused The said deed
being cloud upon the plaintiffs title he
prays for decree of the court quieting
the same. Baldwin & TatIock are the
plaintiffs attorneys.
1t is understood that this is the first of a
series of similar actions that will be filed
at an early date to test the legality of the
numerous sales of like character growing
out of the non-payment of taxes for 1890.
Judge Tatlock has given the matter much
study and is of the impression that none
of these sales will be adiudged valid.

A SCHOOL HOUSE MUDDLE.

Complications Resulting from the For
tieth District Election.
An election was held short time ago
in the Fortieth school district when a
proposition to issue bonds for school pur-
poses was carried. On Monday night
last meeting was held to take action on
the selection of site for the school house.
At this meeting several persons who had
voted on the bonding were declared incl
igible because they did not pay
taxes in the district in their own
names. This complicated matters
not little as many held
that if such persons were not eligible to
vote on the question of a sight, they GER
tainly were not eligible to vote on the
bonding. 1t resulted in another meeting
being held on Friday night, the object
being to consider the ACCESSIBILITY of Sc
curing counsel and having the trustees
enjoined from issuing bonds.
After some discussion, however, the
whole matter was, on motion of s. W..
Sears, referred to committee of three to
consult with the trustees and look into
the legality of the proceedings already
taken and if necessary to order another
election on the site and in this way arrive
at an amicable understanding.

A grand concert will be given at the
First Congregational church, corner of
First South and Fourth East streets,
Thursday evening, March 16, for the
benefit of the Woman's Rescue Home.
The members OF the Orpheus Glee club
have rendered their services, it being
their first appearance in public, under
the direction of A. II. Peabody, con-
ductor. The members of this club, for
some time past, have been working on a
number of part songs, which are perfect
gems, and have never been rendered be-
fore in Utah. In making this, their first
appearance on behalf OF the Woman s
Rescue Home, they are doing worthy
action, one that will endear the boys to
Salt Lakes best citizens. The club in
question is composed of twenty members,
leading singers of the city. Professor
Radcliffe has very generously given his
services for this evening, and will render
some organ solos that will amply repay
anyone going to bear. Mr.. George D..
Pyper and Willard Squires, both members
of the glee club; Mrs H. @. Woodrow and
Matte Royal, have rendered their services
as soloists, and Miss Celia Sharp, pianist,
for this occasion. The piano to be used
has been lent by Mr.. B. N. Jenkins, who
will send new Concert Grand. For the
trustees of the Congregational church
too much praise cannot be given them
for their kindness in donating the use Of
their beautiful edifice. The admission is
80 cents, and it is only fair to ask the peo-
pie OF this city, by their attendance, to
show how we'll they appreciate the object
of the concert and the musical treat that
will be in store for them.

M'oUEEN AND THE PICKLES.

Would Spoil.

Would Spoil.
The announcement made in THE
HERALD yesterday morning to the effect
that Sheriff Mcqueen, Deputy Sheriff
O. Brien and III. E. and w. E. Booth had
been ordered to show cause at 10 O'Clock
why they should not be fined for con-
tempt of court for the manner in which it
is alleged they secured possession of the
Salt Lake Pickle company's property at
Garden City few days ago drew large
and unusually large crowd in Judge Zane
court yesterday morning. Owing to the
fact, however, that a jury trial was in
progress, his honor continued the hear
ing for one week, and the crowd went
away disappointed.
Attorney Booth made a motion yester-
day to dissolve the attachment in the case
of w. A. Chapman against the Salt Lake
Pickle company. This attachment is the
one upon which Marshal Benton levied
upon the company's property and out of
which the contempt case grew, and the
attorney thought it would throw bril-
liant search-light on the proceedings.
stThe motion should be heard at once
YOUR honor,'' said Mr.. Booth in addi-
ton, "for if it Is not the pickles will

81 presume they will not spoil imme-
diately if they are put up right" said the

'Oh, yes they will, your honor,D broke
in the attorney again, but the court or
dered continuance of the motion for
one week.

WHAT WAS EXPECTED.
a Suit for Damages for Pollution of the
Jordan.


a Suit for Damages for Pollution of the
Jordan.
William Langford has begun So, 900
damage suit against the city for alleged
pollution of the Jordan river by pumping
sewage therein. The plaintiff alleges that
he is the owner of certain property in
block 10, Jordan plat, of Salt Lake city,
and the sewage which is deposited in the
river two miles above his premises
flows downward and is deposited
along the banks thereof upon
his. premises. The plaintiff further
charges that the water is rendered unfit
for domestic purposes, or for the use of
animals, and that the stencil arising from
the river renders his premises uninhabita-
bic and endangers the life of his family.
In addition to demanding damage as
aforesaid, Mr.. Langford also prays that
the defendant may be restrained from
continuing the evils pending final hear
ing and upon such hearing that the in
junction be made perpetual.

THE BREWERY FINED.
Three Hundred Dollars Paid for the
Broken Pipe Nuisance.

Three Hundred Dollars Paid for the
Broken Pipe Nuisance.
The Salt Lake Brewing company, con-
victed recently upon the charge of main
tanning nuisance, took the elixir pre-
scribed by law, in the shape of $500 fine
with. costs OF the prosecution added. The
trouble has arisen out of the breakage of
wooden pipes, which are used to convey
the refuse away from the brewery, and
the odor thus arising is said to be of a
very rank character.
Anthony Hall, on behalf of the COM
pany, stated that they were now endeav-
oring to have a snow extention made, in
order that they might connect with it
and thus abate the nuisance complained
of. Judge Zane, in passing upon the
case, stated that it was a grave ofense, as
the nuisance endangered the lives of peo-
pie in the vicinity.
This is the second fine imposed for the
same offense.

Judge Zane Refuses to Grant the In

The old Thurgood divorce case was
brought up again yesterday morning,
upon an application OF Mrs. Thurgood
that her ex-husband, his present wife
and her brother-in-law be restrained
from disposing of certain property which,
it is alleged, belongs to Thurgood.
ThurgooG brought suit for divorce
against his wife in 1889, and she filed a
cross complaint, upon which the decree
was granted to her, and she was allowed
alimony in the sum of $1,193. In 1891,
Thurgood not having paid the same, a
hearing was had before a referee, and the
latter reported that he had no property
which could be applied in satisfaction OF
the judgment. Mrs. Thurgood now al
leges that her ex-husband had property
at that time and still has it. After hear
ing the affidavit of Mrs. Thurgood and the
counter affidayits of Thurgood and his
brother-in law, the court refused to grant
the injunction.
