BIG YCL!tfEE
PRICES
For '95.
Will They be Cut?

That question has come to us in sew.
eral forms during the past month and
we can answer 1t positively as we
have closed two of our contracts for
the coming year aud we are IN touch
with every high grade maker in the
country. Prices for strictly high
grade wheels like the Stearns will re-
main the same for '95 as they have
been for '94. Wheels that have mas.
queraded under the specious guise of
bright nickIe plate and glossy enamel
as high grade, this year will be rele-
gated to the class to which they all
along belonged.
How about weights! you ask. Wheels
will be lighter and-though it may seem
paradOx-strOngei. We shall have
a strictly guaranteed Road Wheel at
10 pounds in the Stearns, and full
Roadster at % pounds. The Seen
dron" will be equipped with wood rims
and brought down to % and 20 pounds,
W tomodels. Steel and metal rims will
hardly be seen on any OF the high
grade wheels. so completely have the
wood rims displaced them. Tires
weighing more than 8 pounds will not
be looked upon with favor by riders.

ism. And the grab of each country
district for all it can reach is Repub-
licanism also.
The Republican organ says: This
business began last winter in the
Legislature when it seemed as though
the only thought was, anything to
beat Salt Lake and some Republicans
high in authority in this territory did
their best to enhance that feeling and
that prejudice" Well, that was in ac-
cord with protection principles. Each
district is asked how does this thing
affect you?". How much profit will
that thing be to your" Not how the
nation or the whole community will be
affected. So each locality looks out for
itself, and the gentleman below who
promotes such sordid sentiments looks
out for them all.
Republicanism is selfshness en-
bodied in law, sectionalism engrafted
upon legislation. The prejudices of a
few thousand producers and dealers in
wool are appealed to, regardless of the
interests of sixty-inillions of people.
So with every other commodity and
product and those who make profit by
them. Reduced to it's logical ultimate,
Republicanism is individualism as to
material interests and Capitalization as
to government. 1t is only consistent
that each Republican section and dis
trict in Utah should be contending for
its own selfish interests and it's own
ambitious men

AMERICAN PROTECTIVE LEAGUE.

The American Protective league is
circulating and gaining some sigma
lures to a document which reads as
follows:
1 hereby pledge myself to buy Ameri-
can goods only, whether of the farm,
mine, or factory, and to use my influ-
ence to have others to do the same.
Are the. people who sign such a
pledge given any guarantee that they
will not be taken advantage of or that
the prices of American goods will not
be put up on them in consequence of
their having pledged themselves to
buy none other? How will they know
that the goods they buy are of Ameri-
can make and not imported pauper
goods disappearing as patriotic
American goods? Another question is:
Would goods manufactured in the
United States, but partly made of inn
ported raw material, be classed as
American or not, and would one who
had signed the pledge be breaking it
to buy such articles? For instance,
how. would a man know whether a
tin plate was of domestic or foreign
manufacture? The tin may have come
from Wales and the dipping been done
here. In such a case it would be the
old problem propounded by Dundreary,
Does the dog wag the tail or does the
tail wag the dog. Could foreign goods,
like foreign people, become American
lied by being in the country certain
length of time and declaring their in
tention to become citizens?
This pledge that the American Pro-
tective league is circulating among the
people is piece of humbuggery. If
generally or largely signed and adj
hered to by the signers, it would make
them the victims of an unscrupulous
set of plunderers. The obligation is all
on one side and no benefit is offered in
return for it.
If those who ask the people to sign
it would guarantee that the goods Of
fetred them should be equal in quality
imported article there would be sound
reason and good business sense in the
proposition, but not otherwise. The
scheme itself is an incentive to fraud
and if adopted the fraud would follow
Immediately we may be sure. Even
the promoters of the scheme cannot
expect the people to be so simple as to
think there are no dishonest men in
the United States of America. If
American industries cannot prosper
without regard to such puerile meth
DDS as the one here proposed then they
are in sorry way indeed, and no
such nostrum can save them. The
scheme makes the pretense of being
patriotic, but never was there a better
exempliicauon of the saying of old DR..
Johnson, Patriotism is the last refuge
of a scoundrel," than this pledge
scheme of the American Protective
league

SHEEP IN GREAT BRITAIN.

Nothing so astonishes the sheep men
of Utah as to tell them the number OF
sheep there are in Great Britain and
ireland. In 1892 the number of sheer
in Great Britain and Ireland was 49,
642, sos. In the United States in 1895
there were 47,27S. 55S sheep and lambs,
or 1868, 745 more than in Great Britain
and Ireland the year previous. Com
pare the two countries as to area and
see how infinitely more sheep we should
have than England The total number
of square miles of England, Ireland and
Scotland, only exceeds that of Utah by
1876, 1877 square miles. But compare the
difference in the number of sheep. And
what is this small country that
can support about as many sheep as the
UNITED States does? 1t is the busiest
country on this busy earth; it lis the
manufacturing center for a large part
lof the world; it is a country where mil
lions and millions of people are crowd
led together; where great cities and
Towns cover the land, and where there
lis room for forests and deer parks, and
lyet this land can support over thirty
three millions of sheep without sheep
becoming a determining factor in poll
ltics. The wool on the back of the pau
per sheep of England grows as thick
and long, and as fine and soft as that
which grows upon the back Of the free
born, heavily protected sheep of Amer
lea that roams at will from the valley
to the mountains whose snow-capped
tops kiss high heaven. In England the
lbleat Of sheep is not deemed to be the
Icry of the people.
If free wool kills the sheep industry
why is that of England in so flourish
ing a condition. No one ever
hears of a speaker on the hust-
ling there discussing sheep and wool
land telling how they could be
Increased and the owners made rich
Iby putting a tariff on them and keep
raising it. The sheep industry in Eng
land is in so fiourishing a condition be-
Icause it is in natural condition. 1t is
ia mere incident when compared to Eng
lands other industries.
Here is something for the sheep men
of Utah to think about. Here the own
Ter of sheep has free pasturage and all
the advantages that can be asked, and
yet the protectionist would make him
believe that unless the government
comes to his rescue by granting him
the power to tax his neighbors by
means of a tariff, he is ruined. To tell
such tales to an English sheep man
would but astonish him, and he wocld
say that those who said so must be
knaves or fools. The sheep industry of
England is more prosperous than that
of America,

REPUBLICAN, DIssENs1oNs.

In a pitlful plea for union ana mar
mony among the Republicans of Utah,
the organ of the g. o. p. in this city
betrays the division and disaffection,
the chickering's and backbitings, the
liealousies and ambitions that disrupt
it's ranks. That appeal shows the ami
mus of the miserable essay of the same
organ, to convey the impression that
there are in it two factions. There is
not even the shadow of an excuse for
that intimation, and no one knows of
any conflict of interests, or sentiments,
or aims among the Democrats of this
territory. There is no such thing.
At the Weber county Democratic con-
vention, some resolutions were adopted
endorsing Delegate Rawlins and ex-
pressing the sentiment that he was the
choice of the convention for Delegate
at the next election. Some of the
delegates present thought it best that
the delegates to the territorial conven-
ton should go free and untrammeled
by any instructions on that point.
But when the vote showed an over
whelming majority in favor of the
resolutions the vote was made unani-
nous.
Is that a proof or indication of di-
vision? No rational person would think
so and no rational paper would say So.
The sentiment is without dissent that
Delegate Rawlins should be renom-
mated if he will accept the position;
but that does not argue that every
delegation should go to the convention
pledged to support a nomination when
lit is doubtful whether the nominee
will accept. If Hon. Joseph L. Raw
Inns will stand by the wishes of his
acknowledgements, not a solitary voice
will be raised against his denomination
and none of his compatriots will doubt
his reelection.
AS to the disunion among the Repub-
licans. it proceeds from the reduction
|of Republican doctrine, to local prac-
|tice. Republicanism is sectionalism
1T appeals to sectional interests and
endeavors to pander TO selfish de-
mands. Protection is for the special
benefit Of certain classes and avows
its desire to foster selected industries
|appeals its papers make for support,
and see how they play on the personal
feelings and private interests of those
whom they address,
The welfare of the nation at large
lis always displaced to give way to
some individual or sectional concern
and the question is asked how that will
be affected by this, that or the other
measure Of tariff duty, as though that
was the overmastering and all-im-
portant thing in view in national legis-
lation
What wonder, then, that each section
and locality in Utah is clamoring for
its petty interests within the ranks of
the Republican party, Why should
not each country district demand re-
cognition and all it can get, as against
Salt Lake City, which is considered to
be trying to hog more than its share?
We do not say that the fact alleged is
true. But il it is, that is Republican,

1t ought not to be surprising that

without resorting TO Misrepresentation.
as 'heir whole theory is founded on
erroR But occasionally establishment
is felt at some unusually brazen false
hood they utter and adopt. An instance
in toint is a resolution adopted at the
Utfh County Republican convention
in american Fork on Saturday con-
denVng ''the Democratic Commission
in regulating registration in such a
manner>as to deprive citizens of their
franchise restored them by the am
nesty proclamation of President Har-
rison." There was not a man in the
committee which presented that resolu-
ton, from the chairman down. but
knew without a doubt that the state
mont in the resolution is direct, un-
adulterated AMI inexcusable falsehood.

No political event of recent times has
caused more surprise and comment
than Senator Jones Reputation of the
Republican party. To that party in the
west ii has been blow from which it
viii be hard for it to recover. The San
Francisco Examiner says: "A speech
Nv Jones is an event, and one in ses-
sion is enough. When he has finished,
the argument on his side Of the ques-
ton is exhausted. Naturally, Mr..
Jones is an authority in the silver
states. HIS words carry weight, and
when he says that the party with
which ne has acted in the Senate for
the better part of a generation cannot
be trusted on the silver question, 1T will
take a good many platform compli-
ments to balance his assertions. OF
course, Senator Jones would not speak
any more favorably Of the Democrats
than OF the Republicans, but as the
states in which his influence is most
powerful are all naturally Republican.
