STILL RAMPANT.


AS the wild, weird stories about the
alleged conspiracy" are kept afloat,
it becomes necessary for The Herald
to refer to them again. The latest
agony is over a. ballot box with a
broken key in the lock, which was re-
ported by the Commission and pub
lished in The Herald weeks ago. 1t
is now referred to by the Tribune as a
new discovery, and treated in the sens
sational style which is common to all
the fabricatfons of that paper. There
is simply nothing in it, except that
the key was broken when the box was
locked, and as the broken key remains
in the lock, is evidence in an exactly
contrary direction to that which is in
ferred from it. 1t shows that the box
has not since been unlocked. And as
there has been no recount from that
particular poll and box. it is rather
difficult to understand what all the
sensation the Tribune tries to raise
over it is about.
So much for that imaginary "out-
rage" Now as to the supposed oaths
and protests and other disturbances,
said to be reported from the Demo-
cratic judges in Sanpete. They are ali
in the Tribunes eye or rather in its
columns. The cause for action of the
Commission in regard to the Sanpete
canvass, was the doubt oppressed by
Sanpete people as to the exact result.
and the discrepancies in the returns
which are beyond dispute We have
no doubt that the judges of election
believed they were accurate in their
count, but the returns show they were
mistaken.
AS to the red and blue dissertations
of our contemporary. they do not az
feet the Sanpete count, because both
the Democratic and the Republican
ballots there were blue, only. one was
a shade paler and a trifie smaller than
the other. But the color question cuts
no figure in this contention, except as
it is raised by our bovidian contem-
porary which is set into rage by red,
and the possibility of it's predominance
gives that concern the blues.
AS to the witnesses said to be sum-
noned to appear in this city, Thurs
day. If what our neighbor publishes
is true, there appears to be a good deal
of labor expended in vain. The ques-
ton before the court is as to the right
of the Utah Commission, under the
Utah statute. to go to the ballot boxes
to determine from the ballots the
rights of the several candidates voted
for. 1t is not as to whether the ballots
were originally counted right. That
may come in when other proceedings
are instituted. That is not now the
matter in legal controversy.
Our neighbor gets muddled up in its
law and is fearfully off, as TO its
facts. And it is pursuing very law
less and indefensible course in pub
fishing suggestions for violence and
disorder, in case the question shall no,
be decided according to its liking. The

PERSONALITIES IN JOURNALISM.

We do not believe the people of Utah
are interested in the personal charac-
teristics of newspaper men, so much
as they are in the principles the news
papers advocate and the news they
publish. Therefore, when our morn
ing contemporary INDUCES in its de-
lightful pastime of f1inging mud at
some writer who differs from it in poll
tics or policy, the public feel disgust
rather than admiration or gratif1ca-
ton.
1t is customary with the Tribune,
when worsted in an argument, to turn
in and personally abuse it's opponent
who has polemically knocked it out.
That is the natural way with persons
who grovel in the lowest gutter of de-
based journalism. 1t gratifies spite,
but it proves no point and simply ex-
hibits the characteristics of those who
get down to such a level. That is all
we care to say as to the personal abuse
which occasionally comes from the
gentlemen (?) of the Tribune who thus
show their good breeding.
We fail to see what the probable
course of any former or present editor
of The Herald, under given circum-
stances, has to do with the right of the
Utah Commission to go to the ballot
boxes in order to find out who has
been duly elected to the Constitutional
Convention. But then we have not
studied logic from the same basis as
o,,,. a h15ei1-a CONFERENCE.-The Acoord;p,
to its high mode of reasoning, it may
be that if The Herald's writer's are
bad men, the Utah Commission have
NO lawful right to go behind the re-
turns of the election; but we have not
reached SO lofty a flight or so miry
level, whichever it may be.
Our neighbor has abandoned the le-
gal controversy which it commenced
in relation to the powers of the Com
mission, and no doubt that was pru-
Dental. Legal argument is not its
forte. Abuse and mud-throwing are
more in its line. In that it is an
adept. We do not pretend to COM
pete with it in that diversion. So it
may go on and take delight in its con-
genial occupation, and we will be con-
tent with advancing facts, figures and
fair reasoning, no matter how much
filth the Tribune may fling.
The case in consideration is unique.
It has not before been tested. 1t mat
tiers not what any editor would be.
likely to have done in years gone by
when conditions were different. We
have to view things as they are and
draw our conclusions from what we
now see and understand. The Utah
Commission have been trying to dis
charge a duty imposed upon them by
congressional law, and there is not
microscopical atom of evidence that
they have done anything less or more.
The Herald believes that the law re-
quires them under the circumstances
existing to open the ballot boxes and
count the votes cast in certain pre-
cincts, as the only way to determine
the rights of contending candidates.
If they have not that right the Ian
guage of the Utah election law is mis-
leading.
Whether the ballot boxes were "tam-
pered with before reaching the Com
mission is altogether another question
and does not affect that which has to
be very soon decided by the courts

In q certain way the decision of the
United States Circuit court at Boston,
declaring the Berliner patent void is a
blow at the Bell Telephone monopoly
but 1T will hardly break it down. as the
company has not only the advantage of
other patents on innumerable improve
ments, but has the greater security of
hundreds Of established exchanges, COW
ering the rights of way through the
streets of the larger cities. Still this will
not prevent competition, as the Berliner
patent, covering the multiphone trans
n1ttter, is one of great Importance, and
the rivals in business of the Bell com
pany declare it will throw open the doors
TO competitive telephoning in this coun-
try. A leading representative. of the
combination that has been fighting the
Bell company, says: THE remaining
patents owned by the Bell company are
of little consequence, and this decision
may be. looked upon as the ending of a
monopoly which has since 1876, earned
