LUCAYTA HOLDS BOTH RECORDS.
The Cunarder Made the Fastest Trip Each
WAY.

QUEENSTOWN, oct. 2O.-The Cunard
line steamer Lucania, Capt Mckay, from
New York October IA to Liverpool, arrived
here at 4:4 o'clock this morning. Her
log shows that her daily runs were COS,
46S. 1872 sol 4S6 and 1853 miles
The exact time made by the Lucania In
her record breaking trip to Queenstown is
five days, thirteen hours and thirty min
utes She now holds the record both ways
her westward trip being FIVE days, thirteen
hours and forty-fve minutes. The Luz
cania is the first steamer 10 make pas
sage eastward in quicker time than the
westward record.
The time Of her passage, five days, thir-
teen hours and thirty minutes, beats the
record made by the Campania, the sister
ship Of the Lucania, by one hour and
twenty-five minutes, the Campania's time
having been five days fourteen hours and
ffty-five minutes. Excluding the Cam
pania's time, the Lucania has beaten the
best eastward record by six hours and
twenty-seven minutes. She averaged
twenty-one knots per hour throughout the
voyage.

Reproduction of Amputated Parts.

Spallanzani and Wesley. the latter in
his Survey Of the Wisdom Of Cod" tell
a remarkable story of removed parts in
the aquatic salamander. When the legs
or tail OF this animal are removed with
a knife new vertebrate and new bones and
flesh are reproduced-a power possessed
not even In a lesser degree by any living
creature except the crawiish mot cray
fish, which can reproduce lost eyes. Nor
do the constituent parts Of the new tail
or legs differ from those removed either
in number. size. structure or connection;
however, a whole year Is sometimes ne
cessary TO render the new parts equal In
size and strength 10 those that have been

tempiated OF a number of the silver and
lead bearing mines. Even now some OF
them are running at loss. Others are
barely paying expenses and whether
iaboring men believe it or not, they have
been kept open out of regard for the
workmen who would suffer from the
closing up, and in the hope that silver
would regain its place in the market.
We must here repeat our advice to
workers at the mines. If the regular
rate of wages cannot be paid because of
the decline in the price of silver, it is far
better to accept a less figure than to be
thrown out of employment and remain
idle. Who can compute the distress and
other evils that have arisen from some of
the strikes in this region? And when
viii those men who refused to work at a
reasonable reduction regain the position
they have lost?
We are encouraged by the turn for the
better that silver has taken, and all hope
the mining companies will be stimulated
to keep their works going, and not give
way to the general panic and take steps
for which they will be sorry ii the market
continues to advance.

That was q very small piece of business
at the city council or Friday night, when
Liberal member who had been opposed
to motion made at a previous sitting by
a Democrat, presented it as an original
motion and. il spite of the protest of the
man who first made it, forced it to vote.
The proposition to make the rate OF tax
alton five mills on the dollar came from
Mr.. Folland on Tuesday evening. Mr..
Kelley and his Liberal confreres fought it
and endeavored to have the rate made six
mills. The matter went over until Fri
day night, when Mr.. Kelly, having
learned that there YVES much opposition
to a high rate and that THE HERALD's
endorsement Of the five mills rate was
popular, moved for the adoption Of that
rate in the face OF the pending motion

The Rise in Silver.

Silver is rising again. That causes
mixed sentiments among the people OF
the west. Some rejoice over the relief it
will afford to silver miners, others will be
sorry that it did not drop still further so
as to bring about a crisis and force a
change that would compel settlement of
the currency question.
It is pretty clear that the great slump
was brought about by spectators. Some
operators have made snug sums over the
manipulation of the market. 1t was
beared for spoils. Advantage was taken
of the East Indian policy as to silver, and
the market was run down in order to take
advantage of the rebound which was
sure to come.
The Spectators in stocks and in COM
modities care nothing for the ruin that is
wrought by their manipulations OF the
market. Theysbecome perfectly callous
to human suffering and calmly indiffer-
ent to the fate of others. No matter who
sinks SO that they swim. The very ma
ture of their vocation tends to make
them so. There Is no sentiment in them.
1t is probable that the reaction which
has taken place will steady the nerves oil
the mining men of the west, and prevent

THE "DIsPENsARY' law of South Caro-
lima went into effect yesterday, the state
taking entire control of the sale OF aico-
holc liquors. a large number OF
counties have not as yet elected their
duly authorized dispensers, the people
being opposed to the measure on consti-
tutional grounds, and the prospect of a
booze famine therefore being good.
Under the new law, person can buy no
less than half pint nor more than five
gallons, and the spirits are only to be had
in sealed packages that must not be
opened on the premises where bought.
Every purchaser must sign statement
giving his age and residence and for what
purpose the stuff is wanted. In the
Southern States the prohibition senti-
ment is strong, an account of lawlessness
on the part of colored men when in
famed by drink.

Promote Confidence.

In the midst Of the scares and calamlties
OF the past few weeks, which are not new
by any means either to this country or to
others, 1t is gratifying to know that so
few failures have occurred in Utah.
Those that have taken place are peculiar
in this, that in almost every instance they
collapsed with assets in excess of their
liabilities. The pressure of certain debts
that had to be met, and the failure OF
making collections to meet them, forced
the issue and compelled them to close.
Our Salt Lake banks are in sound and
stable condition. There need be no fear
with depositors. OF course people must
have money to carry on their affairs, but
they need not make rush for it in fear that

or their pockets, Salt Lake will be pre-

Republican Deception.

1t is difficult TO preserve ones patience
when reading the editorials of Republican
papers in reference to the Democracy and
the tariff. Here is a sample sentences
''Many months have passed since the
presidential election yet the Democratic
party, being in full possession of the
legislative and executive branches of the
government, has not made move to carry
out its announced policy. The condition
OF the country has steadily grown worse
aud there are not at present any indica-
tions OF change for the better' This is
said to be ''the only logical result of a
tariff for revenue only.' 1t is the COM
mon talk of Utah Republican organs
which echo tns views of papers at dis
lance.
R OF course the cditoys wtO descend to the
level of such stuff as that know very well
what drivel il all is. But they know also
that many of their readers are simply
readers and not thinkers, and that an i'm
preston will be produced upon them that
the conditions which confront the coun-
try are caused by the Democracy and q
tariff for revenue only.
1t is only necessary in order to remove
that impression to getthe facts before the
public mind that the Democratic Presi-
dent and his assistants in carrying on
the government are sworn to enforce the
laws as they find them. and that those
laws are of Republican origin, and the
conditions existing are the actual result:

tive policy of the Republican party, j

"Chean Money!

The ''rag money! heresy has done
much to complicate financial ideas in this
country. Although there is no connec
ton between that and the movement for
the free coinage of silver, yet they are as
ISOLATED in some peoples minds and are
looked upon as equally fallacious. This
notion is assisted by the fact that some of
the former 'greenbackers' are now ad-
vocates of unlimited silver coinage. They
damage the cause by reason of their
former error.
The terms scheap money" and ''hon-
est money! originated in the campaign
against ''rag money! They are i'm
properly applied in the present discussion
on the coinage question. 1t is not pro-
posed to make money by simply giving to
something the government stamp. 1t is
proposed to coin money out of a precious
metal, which has been precious metal
money metal-ever since money has
been in use.
Silver coins are not ''fiat'' money any
more than gold coins are. 1t is true that
silver as a commodity has gone down in
price, for reasons that are obvious, or
rather that gold has gone up, which re-
ally constitutes the difference. But the
history OF the world shows that when
both metals have been used as money the
ratio between them has kept practically
the same, and therefore it is evident a.
the comparative market value of the
metals has materially changed since silver
was demonetized, that the cause is due tc
that foolish piece of Republican legisla.
