A law to prevent the intermarriage
Of the races in this State is needed and
would meet the approval of the better
classes of the races. Miscegeuation
forebodes evil to both of them, and it
should not only not be sanctioned by
law, but should be prevented in SO far
as a statute can prevent it. Inter-
marriage is a long stride in the direc
ton of social equality, and social
equality is something to be opposed
and dreaded by both whites and
blacks. 1t is a matter of surprise that
a law of this character has not been
in existence ever since the Democrats
got possession of the State government
and at the next session of the Leglsla-
ture no time should be lost in passing
one. The existing conditions demand
its passage. Let future generations
be kept as pure and distinct as an edict
of law can make them, so that each
race can be held accountable for its
own acts -Democrat-Journal.

THERE HAS recently been delivered q
decision by the United States Supreme
court which is sure TO cause great deal
of discussion in the newspapers and
among lawyers. A man arrested in one
state on requlsition from another
claimed that he could be tried only on
the charge specified in the warrant. The
court holds that while this principle pre-
walls in the case of prisoner extradited
from one nation to another, it does not
apply as between states in this country.
Here is a direct denial OF the state sover-
eighty doctrine, and a popularity of the
decision is that the opinion of the court
was written by Justice JACKSON, late
judge of one OF the Southern circuits, and
an ex-Confederate. 1t would appear to
be wiping out of state jurisdictions in
conflict with national authority, and, as
we have said above, is certain to provoke
an interesting discussion.

Stewards Annexation Plan.

In response to letter from a gentle
man residing in Virginia City, Senator
STEWART has given some of his views in
regard to the proposed annexation Of
Utah to Nevada. The Senator is the au-
thor of the revival of this project and it
is interesting to learn what he has to say
on the subject.
He says neither he nor Senator JONES
proposes anything that would not be
agreeable to Nevada, and would take no
positive action until they had learned the
wishes of their constituents. Still, he is
of the opinion that if the two regions were
joined it would present better field for
investment. He thinks it would raise
the price of land in every part OF Nevada
and make very powerful and prosper
GUS state. But he would not contem-
plate for moment forcing anything on
the people OF Nevada that they do not
want.
In all this the Senator is consistent and
properly regardful of the wishes of the
people in his state. But what about the
people of Utah? Are they to have no con-
sideration? Possibly the annexation
might be effected without consulting
Utah at all. Nevada has provided in her
laws for the acquisition of new territory
if Congress should become disposed to
enlarge its area. 1t could be done, no
doubt, in an arbitrary way and no notice
be taken of Utah IS remonstrances.
But Utan has five times the population
of Nevada, and numbers count on some
questions. 1t is scarcely to be supposed
that a government of the people would
entirely ignore the wishes of so many of
the people who would be affected by this
transaction. Senator STEWART may be
entirely Indifferent to anything but the
wishes OF his constituency; Congress
would be more likely to pay some atten-
ton to the viii of so large majority Of
the citizens who are as much interested
in the matter as the minority can posi-
bly, be.
Before the Nevada senator's take any
active steps toward the accomplishment
OF their pet project, they had better con-
suit the wishes Of the Utonians, for they
viii be likely to have something to say,
and to have what they say heard, even if
Utah is only a territory. The time has
come when what Utah desires or objects
to concerning herself is likely to be paid
attention to. At present she wants no
annexation in hers.

Sanpete's Probate Judge.

The newly appointed probate judge of
Sanpete county, w. K. REID, is a mem
Der of a well known family in Utah. There
are numerous REEDS IN the territory. rel
atives, who came of families from the
north of Ireland. Judge REID is the ster-
ling Democrat who has figured promi-
nently IN Sanpete politics and who has
been member of the territorial legisla-
ture. He is lawyer of no mean abilities,
and has been prosecuting attorney of the
county where he viii now officiate as pro-
bate Judge.
President CLEVELAND has made good
selection and Mr.. REID has received de-
served recognition as an active worker for
the party which is now in the ascendant.
There has been considerable i'll feeling in
Sanpete over the probate judgeship.
Several aspirants for the office looked for
the appointment before President HARRI-
son went out of office, and they were all
very much disappointed at their failure.
The Delegate from Utah came in for a
share of their disapprobation and some
very ill-natured remarks concerning him
were published in the Liberal organ,
from professedly straight Republicans
who seemed to expect his support.
The matter has been settled in the
proper way; that is by the appointment
of Democrat as to whose political con-
victions there can be no doubt. His
ability as a mark of fitness for the post is
not disputed, and we believe the very
large majority of Democrats in that sec
ton OF country are well satisfied with the
appointment. THE HERALD congratu-
lates Judge REID and wishes him COM
plete success in the important position
which he is called to occupy.

A State Experiment.

After the first day of next July there
are to be no intoxicants sold in South
Carolina except by the state itself. The
law establishing this appropriates the
sum of $500 as starter to set up the
state in the liquor business. Its measure
of success will be noted by other states,
and if it should prove profitable and to
bring about good results, it is thought
not unlikely that they will follow the
pattern thus given, and the liquor traffic
viii be held in considerable check.
This is something after the method
adopted in Norway. There the plan is to
place the liquor traffic for the whole
kingdom entirely in the hands of one
corporate body which is not to go into
the business for profits. Pure liquors
only are sold, and what little profits are
derived from the fixed rates, over small
percentage on investments, is devoted to
objects OF public utility that are not sup
ported by taxation. II has worked very
we'll and promoted the cause of temper
ance in that country.
1t does away with the saloon accompa-
niment of the American style of liquor
selling. It is not intended to apply to
malt or fermented beverages but only to
distilled liquors. The Norwegian method
has attracted considerable attention
lately and the South Carolina plan is I'M
doubtedly modelled after its main idea,
but in one respect is radically different.
Under the Norwegian plan the govern
ment does not actually engage in the
business of selling intoxicants. 1t gives
monopoly of the business to one corpor-
alton which it controls by law, and it di-
reefs what shall be done by the actual
profits. North Carolina proposes to go
into the liquor traffic as a state. That, in
our opinion, is not part Of the functions
OF government. Laws may be enacted to
restrain and regulate and, where the state
constitution permits, to prohibit and sup
press the traffic in anything that is
considered inimical to the public
welfare. And the state may say
under,what conditions such articles may
be sold. But engaging in the traffic
itself is different thing and outside the
purposes for which governments are or
ganized.
The liquor dealers of South Carolina,
however, have met with a rebuff in try
ing to test the constitutionaIjty Of the
law before it goes into operation. They
formed an association and engaged able
counsel for the purpose of testing it.
But after close investigation it was de-
cided that nothing could be done at pres-
ent, and the liquor dealers were advised
not to attempt to sell, after the first of
July, any liquor or beer made in the
state. But on an attempt Of the state

present in every part OF this territory.
The HERALD will be pleased to have this
matter ventilated at time when some
good may grow out of it, when the legis-
lature is IN session or is about to meet
would be a more opportune season for the
discussion of this subject
The law as it now stands makes it pos
sible for the people in any locality to de-
clare in favor Of fencing if they SO desire.
The matter can be lawfully decided at the
polls. This local option is considered
sufficient, by the majority of the repre-
sentatives of the people. Any change in
this particular will have to be effected by
new legislation. That cannot be had IN
til the Assembly shall again convene.
But, meanwhile, persons who have ideas
on this subject which they wish incor-
porated in territorial statutes, should
frame a bill embodying their views and
get it ready for the next legislature. No
doubt the time will come when stock will
not be allowed torun at large near any
settlement in this territory, but the pres
ent law is considered ample under present
conditions.
