THE UTE REMOVAL.
state

If the report that has come in the
press dispatches concerning the bill for
the Ute removal be true, the Colorado
ans have sprung a march on this terri
tory. and on our Delegate during his
temporary absence from the national
capital If the report from the COM
mittee turns out to be favorable to the
dumping of those Colorado Indians up
on Utah soil, the bill will have to be
fought vigorously in the Senate.
Utah. unfortunately, is without direct
representation there. 1t is only by the
courtesy of some Senator and by the
diligence of the Delegate in securing
senatorial sympathy, that she can be
heard in the upper House of Congress.
It is because of the near approach of
statehood, when Utah viii have equal
representation with other states. that
this removal matter is being pushed
with SO much haste by those who are
engaged in promoting it.
There is not only the desire to get
rid of a troublesome tribe OF redskins
at the back of the movement. but there
is the greed for profits by spectators,
who are waiting TO pounce upon the
land now used as the Ute reservation.
We do not believe the Colorado Sena-
tors are mixed up with that, but it is
a fact nevertheless, and they are being
impressed simply with the benefits that
will arise to the state from the pro-
posed removal
1t is TO be hoped that the wrong in
tended to this territory win be yet
prevented. 1t may be that the press
dispatch on this matter is somewhat
exaggerated. But if the worst comes
to the worst. it will be necessary for
some prompt and energetic action to
be taken to secure to the San Juan
settlers, who will be displaced by the
Indians. thar compensation for their
improvements that justice. demands.
That ought to be provided for at the
same time that the removal shall be
definitely decided upon.
However, every effort should be
made to prevent the passage of the
iniqaitous and impudent bill, and if it
passes, the President ought to be ap-
pealed to for an imperative veto. The
ought TO be killed.

THE FEE SYSTEM.

That there ought to be reform in the
manner of compromising public officers
for their services, that is, by adopting
the fixed salary method instead of the
shifting fee system, has been recognize
Jed by fair minded people-even if inter
ested-in the present mode of doing
business.
The following communication touches
on an evil that ought to be cured if
legislation can be made to reach it.
Bat we do not look for any radical
change by the present very peculiar
Legislative Assembly:
Editor Herald:
l had thought. shortly following the
assembling of our territorial legislature,
that certain inequalities in the laws
would be speedily remedied, but time
Is waning and nothing is being done
10 correct these grievous wrongs.
l am reliably informed that over 500
pieces OF property in this county, were
sold for delinquent taxes of 1892 where
the costs in each case was $3.50, and
the taxes less than % cents.
Upwards of 1000 pieces of property
were sold for the taxes of 1893 with
attached costs of $3.50 in each case.
Aside from this the collector gets a
fixed salary of $1,000 and employs five
or six men about four months of the
year
They tell me that the county clerk.
IN fees and salary. realizes over Sc, 600
per annum, net; and the county recorder
has the biggest bonanza of all.
If this state of affairs is in harmony
with soup houses, relief committees,
charity entertainments. rescue missions,
etc, etc, all [ can say is LET THE
DANCE GO ON
If the Legislature means to correct
this unnatural state of affairs, it is
certainly time to be about it, 1 am told
that a. certain supposed leader in the
lower house, or his next friend, now
an attachee of the same body, contem-
plates being a candidate for county
clerk in this year of grace 1894, which
may explain, in part, why all proposed
measures looking to a readiustment of
the fee system, have been so promptly
amended by Striking out the enact
ing clause.

Judge Merritt showed excellent judg-
ment in his handling of the matter pre-
scented in court by disgruntled at
torney in reference to The Herald's re-
port of an interview with a young
woman who is witness in very
delicate, or rather indicate case. The
Herald desires to give the news on all
public matters, and was engaged in its
legitimate business when presenting
the true particulars of that which may
only be partly brought out in the in
vestigation- The Herald did not at
tempt to try the case or make any
suggestions III relation to it, but simply
to publish some pertinent facts. We
are sorry the lawyer didn't like it, but
we can't help that, we are catering to
the public.
