ANOTHER REPUBLICAN REVOLT.

The letter addressed to the Chairman
of the Republican territorial committee
by Hon. H. W. Lawrence, a copy of
which will be found elsewhere in The
Herald, is worthy the attention of all
local Republicans. Mr.. Lawrence has
been a Republican in politics but he
can no longer train with that party,
for the same reason as those assigned
by Senator John P. Jones. He sees no
hope for silver in the Republican party.
That shows that, so far, his vision has
been cleared; his eyes have been opened
to a plain patent fact.
It may be said that the gentleman
does not incline to the Democratic party
but talks more like a Populist That
is probably true. But it does not take
away in the least the force of the con-
clusion to which all but extreme par
tisans must reach, in relation to the
national Republican party. 1t is from
so to 80 per cent against the free and
unlimited coinage of silver, and more
against free coinage Independent of
foreign nations.
Mr.. Lawrence, like Senator Jones,
mag not be inclined to join with the
Democrats, the large majority of whom
are in favor of free silver coinage, but
he helps to emphasize the truth which
The Herald has proclaimed, that the
Republican party is silver's enemy. Let
that be understood by the people of the
West. Those who do not see It are
politically color blind, and those who
contend to the contrary are in most in
stances simply trying to deceive their

AoRE INCONSISTENCY.

The annexed paragraph is from the
Cincinnati Gazette. 1t is not new al
though it is true. We copy it because a
Iof the splendid work" the Cincinnati
paper is doing for silver. And yet that
same contemporary praised the work of
the Republican League convention in
Denver which voted down the resolu-
ton that was introduced for 1.-The free
and unlimited coinage of silver" The
Gazette says:
The man who says he is the friend of
silver and yet does not declare himself
for free and unlimited coinage is this
sort of a silver man: He is willing to
Introduce more silver into the currency,
If necessary, but not enough to cripple
the government in it's policy of giving
every man gold if he prefers it. He is
Opposed to the introduction of more sill
yer to the extent that would take away
from the gold spectators the precious
privilege of lending the government
gold on bonds and then drawing the
gold out by merely presenting green
backs, treasury notes of 1890, or even
silver certificates. if the present policy
is run out to its legitimate conclusion.
The Gazette had in mind, no doubt.
the silver straddles made by the Den
yer convention and other Republican
assemblies, which it condemns in no
Ambiguous terms. And that paper is
all right. But the reproduction of it's
remarks in the columns of our local
contemporary. which praised not long
ago that which the Gazette so emphat-
ically condemns. can only be accounted
for by our neighbours chronic forgetful-
ness and common Inconsistency.

HOW THEIR TRICKS APPEAR.

Have the Republicans who are trying
to confuse and overrun the registration
officers, entered into conspiracy with
the Tribune outfit to obstruct the regis
tration and prevent its completion? If
not, what do they want? Every voter
has the privilege Of finding out during
the present week whether his name is
on the registration list or not. If it
has been for any cause omitted,
whether it be through his own neglect
or that of the registration officer, by
taking the oath, required by law. he
can be registered. What more does he
require?
The attempt which has been made to
give trouble to the registrars is simply
vexations and rantankerous opposition,
and can accomplish no good purpose.
1T is evidently intended to furnish a
disreputable Republican paper with an
excuse to void its billingsgate against a
public officer. who could be neither
bribed nor cajoled into playing into
the hands of few Republicans.
There is not a scrap of law which
makes it the duty of the registrar to
do that which was demanded of him
in a peremptory and insolent manner
The demand made on the Utah Com
mission was equally impudent and COM
pletely impotent. The letter containing
it was a mess of twaddle, much of it
without meaning and the rest of it
without sense. The further effort TO
bring it before the courts is inspired
l. !
titute of law and logic.
The pictorial attack on the Chairman
of the Utah Commission and the
County Registrar, in the Republican
organ on Tuesday, is a criminal libel
against both those officers. 1t is false
in its conception and utterly vile and
inexcusable in its purpose and execu-
ton. If this is the kind of campaign
Republicans want, their opponents
would like to understand it. Both par
ties appreciate humor and take but
passing notice Of joke, even at their
own expense. But so direct a stab at
character and actual Implication of
corrupt conduct without the slightest
cause, is the product of a cowardly and
vicious disposition and betrays a devil
ish desire to defame what it cannot
dictate.
The registration has been conducted
lawfully and with fairness. so far as
known, to all parties and persons. In
timations to the contrary are entirely
untrue. The tricks and turns made by
local Republicans may be condoned in
their minds by the saying: "Oh. that's
only politicsr' But to ordinary decent
people they are just as evil and dis
honest as cheating in business and
lying in conversation.

The result of the primary elections in

with his value or his usefulness as a

/ Globe Democrat (Rep1:
The profits Of the Sugar trust last
year were S2S,O0O,000, or S5z per cent on
the money invested. The amount would
have been greater but for the fact, as
Congressman Wilson says, that the
Democracy continues to shell the camp
Of monopoly.
The acknowledgements and opponents
of the new tariff law may say what
they choose and make what demonstra-
lions they please, they viii never be
able to prove that duty of one-eighth
Of cent a. pound on sugar can give
the Sugar trust as much protection"
which in plain terms may be said to be
the privilege Of robbing the people, as
duty of one-half of a cent a pound on
sugar does, and that is what the Nc
Kinley bill did
If the Sugar trust is the monstrous
thing the Republicans say it is, and it
is, why did they not condemn it when
they had control of Congress? The
reason they did. not do so is because it
was a pet of theirs at the time and they
did all in their power to crafty its
every wish. This Sugar trust is a re-
filming trust, and the one thing above all
others that would help it in it's designs
to control the market, was to take the
revenue tariff off raw sugar This was
done. What was the result? 1t was
that the government was deprived of
many millions of dollars of revenue
and that the Sugar trust pocketed it.
The whole transaction was for the ben
eft of the trust and for neither the
people nor the government.
When Havemeyer was asked what
sugar schedule he preferred, he replied:
1.-THE Mckinley bill" There was only
one reason for this it was more favor
able to the trust than that in the new
law. Mr.. Havemeyer is a trust man,
and so far as the sugar schedule in the
tariff bill was concerned, he was look
ing after the interests of the turst,
having none other in view.
Anyone who has the capacity to
think, and will think. cannot but see
that the Mckinley tariff on sugar was
more favorable to- the Sugar trust than
that of the new tariff, else why should
Mr.. Havemeyer have expressed a pref
erence for it? Then the Mckinley tariff
was enacted by the party that believes
in protection and fostering trusts and
monopolies, while the new tariff was
enacted by the party that is opposed to
these things.
The Globe-Democrat is right in it's
statement and it cannot be successfully
contradicted, and it proves that truth
will out, no matter how much some
people may desire to keep it in.
