THE FIRE CHIEF.

When the Citizens movement for the
reform OF municipal affairs in this city
was inaugurated, it was the under
standing that a general change in the
lconduct of all the departments of the
city government would 81 effected. That
arrangement will no doubt be carried
out 1t is not reasonable to expect
that officials who fought the move
ment in aid of the then Liberal party
twill be retained as prominent employees
Of the city or. at any rate, as heads
lof departments.
The nomination by the Mayor Of a
new chief of the fire department seems
to have stirred up the friends of the
present officer, and an effort has been
made to retain him. We do not be-
lieve it win prevail. The theory on
which the opposition to The Mayors
nominee is founded will not hold as
to the retention Of the incumbent. II
no new man must be appointed, on
the ground of lack of personal exper-
fence, there are others who are quail
| fed either by having honorably and
ably filed the place before, or by
acting in a subordinate position for
years. The rejection of the nominee
by the Council would not mean the
retention of the present chief. So that
plea, in our opinion, will not work.
There is a good deal of reason in the
argument as to experience in handling
fires. It would be very disastrous to
have great CONGREGATIONS and no skill
full and competent chief to direct the
work of fighting them. We do not
place much confidence in the threat
that insurance rates would be advanced
liz the appointment contemplated should
prevail. If the level-headed men com
posing the City Council have sufficient
confidence in the executive ability,
knowledge of the construction of build
ings, and sound judgment. of the May
.or's selection, we believe the rest of
the people of. this city and the insur-
ance agents with them win suffer no
scare on that score.
However, we think the City Council
should exercise its prerogative, and
pass on this important matter with full
regard for the public safety and the
qualifications necessary-in such an Of
ficer If there is any reason to believe
the Mayors choice would not meet the
requirements of the position, he ought
not to be confirmed. We know of moth
ing, personally, to support such a view
of the case. That is for the Council
10 determine. But his rejection, as we
have said, does not mean a grip on the
place by the present chief. There are
others fully qualified for the post who
did not fight the Citizens movement
and who would be cordially endorsed
by large majority of the people.

THE BONDING BILL PASSED.

The passage Of the bill in the Senate.
which was introduced in the House by
Mr. RawIins. permitting Salt Lake City
to increase its bonded Indebtedness,
will be the means of reviving business
affairs in this city. It VIII enable the
city authorities to complete the public
works which have been projected and
thus give employment 10 many persons
dufing the present year.
THIS win set money in circulation as
soon as the necessary preliminaries can
be arranged to issue the bonds. We
do not think there viii be any formid-
able opposition to. the movement or
any great difficulty IN negotiating the
sale of the bonds when issued, because
the city is so situated that they have
become very nearly an absolute neces-
sity.
IT is just possible that President
Cleveland may withhold his signature
to the bonding bill. President Harri-
son did so when a similar bin was pre-
scented to him for another city. But
the probabilities are that this bill will
be signed, and we shall have the bless
ed privilege Of increasing our bonded
Indebtedness.
There is no denying the fact that
Salt Lake city Is running pretty swiftly
into debt, nor disputing the truth that
such rapid descent is dangerous. Brit
there appears to be no help for i. I'm
der present circumstances. and it is the
best means that could be devised TO
meet the obligations Of the city, and
the perfecting Of improvements that
have been commenced and cannot be
wisely abandoned.
ANY great increase of taxes just now
would be imprudent if not impossible
AID the defeat Of the bonding move
nent would mean stagnation in our
municipal affairs and idleness for a
great number OF working people.

FISH PRoTEcTIoN,

FISH PROTECTION,
OF course the seiners are in favor of
SEEMING. They are not at a cents e1-
pense and sell the products of their
seines at ~ and 312 cents per pound.
Who would not stand UP for such
margin as this? Still the seine or the
sport fish must go-the latter to the
tables of the epicures in Denver. VIII
not the lovers Of legitimate sport
make other and more earnest efforts
to protect the game fish in our Utah
waters?
That is from the Provo Dispatch.
The fishermen who gain living by
supplying thei market with fish are "of
course in favor of seining" So are
the people who buy the club, muliet
and suckers sold at retail by the deal
ers for five cents a pound, sometimes
for less. So are other people, who
think it is better to reduce the num-
bers of the common fish in Utah lake
for the benefit of the game fish, that
the latter may have room to increase
and multiply and replenish the waters,
after their kind
The protection required to prevent
the sport fish from going to supply the
tables Of the epicures in Denver, is
afforded by the law of Utah, which
makes it unlawful for any person 10
export either dead ,or living trout or
any imported fish except carp caught
in the natural waters of this territory,
to any point outside of the territory,
either for consumption or sale.
Those people who favor SEEMING for
common fish do not want to spoil sport
for anglers. But they think the great
body Of consumers are of more i'm
portance than the few sportsmen. And
they believe firmly that a continuation
for some time of the permission to
seine for common fish, will be for the
benefit of the better kinds of fish
which have been imported And this
is the view of the fish commissioner,
who is as anxious as any sportsman
can be to preserve the game fishes
and improve the piscatorial interests
of the territory and who thoroughly
understands the whole situation.
If anybody exports game fish, pun
ish him. 1t is very easy to say that
such fish has been sent to Denver. Ii
it is possible to prove it, is it not pos
sible also to prove who exported it.?
The offense is a misdemeanor, and the
penalty is imprisonment not exceeding
six months, or fine not exceeding
three hundred dollars, or both such
fine and Imprisonment Trout may
not be lawfully caught except by hook
and line and that only between June
and the February following.
We do not believe that it is for the
benefit of sportsmen to stop SEEMING
for common fish, which is not allowed
now except in Green River and in
Utah and Bear Lakes. Nor do we
think that their angling is of para
mount Importance to the fish food of
the public. The law should be amend
ed so as to make it unlawful to take
and kill any imported fish by seine for
a period long enough to protect them.
But between September and the July
following, SEEMING for common fish I'M
der the present restrictions Of the law,
will do little or no harm, but win be
productive of great amount of pub
lie good.

The greenback is declared legal
tender. and on its face the government
agrees on presentation to redeem it.
That is all there is to It," That is
what is advanced as an argument to
show that the silver dollar is not
money any more than the greenback
is. Does the government agree to re-
deem silver dollar? Is not the silver
dollar issued as money, instead of a
promise to pay money? "a Sioux In

CALL A HALT.

The bill to regulate voluntary as
signments which has passed the Coun-
ell of the Legislative Assembly ought
to be entitled An act to precipitate
insolvency" The intent of its promo
tiers We believe to be good; the effects
Of the bill, if it should pass, we be-
lieve would be exceedingly bad.
At first sight it would seem that
when a business man fails owing a
number of creditors, they should all
have an equal chance to recover their
respective claims or receive their pro
portion Of the assets. The present
system of preferred creditors may open
the path to injustice in this particular
and make way for collision and fraud.
But no matter what laws may he
passed while there are tricky bank
rupts and dishonest debtors.
Men III business frequently find
themselves, after years of success in
meeting their regular bills, suddenly
cramped for money. To tide them
over and pay the firms from which
they make their purchases, SO as
to keep their credit good, they
have to make overdrafts, or oh
tain loans from banks or accomodat-
ing friends. Unless these were as
sured of being protected in case of a
collapse, that money would not be ad-
vanced, and the consequence would
perhaps be a forced assignment. Many
a merchant has been saved from such
a smash in this way
Is it not right under such circum
stances. when an assignment is forced,
to prefer those creditors who have
thus come to the aid of the assignor?
Should not our home banks which
help business men often to maintain
their credit, and which thus save many
from bankruptcy. when suddenly
squeezed by a grasping foreign credi-
tor. be protected by the preference
which this proposed law would abol-
ish?
The principle on which preferred
creditors are allowed to be named by
person making an assignment is this:
If he sold his goods and property to
pay his debts. he would settle with
just such creditors as he chose and
in the order of his own selection. He
does exactly the same in making an
assignment And the idea is, that ne
ought to have the same privilege in
both cases.
There will b. people who will take
advantage OF this to do wrong. So

for criminal expenses and the repair of
Iroads and bridges.
II there are several counties that
have less revenue than each of the
counties would have if Emery We're
divided. we pity their financial state
It has been claimed that Emery coun-
ty is in fine financial condition. If
that is the case. why is it that Mr.
Seely has been authorized and re-
Iquested to negotiate loan in this city
Of $4,000 for the county, to pay it's debts
and run its affairs for the current
year?

the distance from the railroad, but
which is actually thirty-three, is not
such a terrible stretch. There is
Blake, which has to travel sixty-three
miles to reach Price, besides the thirty
three miles from the railroad, and yet
sends d renonstrance against division
The statement about the number of
signers to the petition and remon-
lstrance is incorrect. We have taken
pains to investigate. The petition has
IA signatures. Among these there are
the firm names of companies and the
individual signatures of members of
those firms. Several names are signed
twice. Some of the signers live in
places outside the county. such as
Provo, Grand Junction, Thistle and
salt Lake city. There are also the
names of several ladies and of a num-
Der of boys.
The only juvenile names on the pro-
test are four of these boys, placed TO
show that they were on the petition.
The signers to the remonstrance num-
Der Csc, and they are from Emery, Fer
ron, Molen, Castle Dale, Orangeville,
Lawrence. Huntington, Cleveland,
Blake. Wellington and Price. and they
are all bona fide residents and taxpay-
Eers. Challenged to pick out one signature
that is different the divisionists have
failed TO do SO.
We do not see how division would
help to market farm products or make
any more money for the agriculturist.
Nor does it follow that in making two
counties out Of one, the population
would be increased or the interests of
Emery be enhanced. The consequence
must necessarily be an increase of ex-
pense in carrying on two county gov
ernments instead Of one.
We understand the parties promot-
ing the division suggest raising the
valuat don on property as a means of
raising sufficient revenue for both
couples How that will strike the tax
payers of either place it is not diff
cult to surmise in these stringent
tines.
The Herald is perfectly willing that
both sides Of this controversy shall be
heard We have no interest in the
matter but the welfare of that region.
we dos not speak of the numbers on
the petition or Of the kind or resi-
denee of the signers as an argument
against it, but merely in reply to our
correspondent. We know what we are
advancing and also that he has fallen
into several errors. We hope the Coun-
ell viii decide the matter with view
to the best results and guided by all
the facts CLEANED from both parties
