EFFECTS OF FREE WOOL.

A few days ago a Republican sheet
in this vicinity, noted for it's unreli-
ability and readiness to say anything
however absurd and untrue to pro-
mote partisan ends, published the state
ment that a certain sheep owner in
this territory, who has gone out of the
business and entered into political
"wool-gathering, had to sell his sheep
at great sacrifice because of the pas
sage of the tariff bill which had caused
the price of domestic wool to drop two
cents a pound.
The truth is that the passage of the
tariff bill has been followed by brisk
activity in the wool market, and a
rise in price of from one to three cents
pound on Utah and similar woods.
Also foreign wool is in demand to mix
with the native woods and manufac-
turers are busy. Mills are starting up
which before were idle. There is more
labor. big sales of domestic wool and
a general revival of the wooden in
dustry are noticeable and the outlook
is remarkably bright.
In another part of this paper will
be found a statement of the effects on
the west of the new tariff already in
the wool trade. There has been a
general advance in the market of
about 80 per cent and the indications
are that all branches of the wooden
trade and industry will go ahead and
prosper.
The results will be a better grade of
goods for the American people at a
lower price. Shoddy will be gradually
displaced to large extent for wool in
manufacturing wooden fabrics. Labor
will receive more steady employment.
And the consequence will be that the
United States win be able to compete
with other countries in the production
of finer and greater varieties of fabrics.
England opened her ports to the
woods of the world, and instead of in
juring it greatly benefited the sheep
and wool industries. It enabled her
looms to produce all kinds of goods Cor
home and foreign markets; it gave
hosts of work-people steady employ
ment; and she had wool of native pro-
duction to export in large quantities
though her consumption of wool was
far in excess of her wool production.
The fallacy of the Republican theory
of protection for wool is laid bare by
the fact that the lowest price domestic
wool ever reached has been under the
highest duty. Home woods sold for
much less than even the tariff rate
imposed on foreign wool
Free trade on wool is an American
necessity. And it is time that the
wooden manufacturers Of this country
were able to stand on their own feet
and face the world, without leaning
on the crutches of tariff duties, or
fearing the skill or economy of any
nation under the sun. Read the article
on free wool!

REPUBLICAN SILENCE.

While the Republican party in con-
vention assembled at Provo adopted a
platform, it made no mention of the
Republican legislature and its work.
What was the reason for this? In one
thing that convention was in full ac-
cord with the people of the entire terri
tory-when anything good cannot be
said of the dead, say nothing.
Was there ever so remarkable a
thing? This territory is about to be-
come a state, and both parties will ap-
peal to the people for their support on
their principles and their record. 1t is
only two years since the Democratic
and Republican parties put up their
first candidates for Delegate to Con-
gress, candidates heretofore having
run on other issues than those which
divide the two great national parties.
Two years ago the Democrats elected
their candidate. Last fall the Repub-
lican party elected majority of the
legislature. The work of that legisla-
ture was and is the record of the Re-
publican party in Utah; the result of
its labors is the demonstration of its
capacity to legislate for a great terri.
tory, the greatest of them all, terri
tory that is soon to enter the Union as
state. The Republican party must
stand by that record, and yet the Re.
publican party, in territorial conven-
ton. whose purpose was to nominate
candidate for Delegate to Congress
and formulate principles on which to
go to the people, does not even men
ton the Republican legislature
Ii is true that the work of
that legislature was such as to
ehclt naught but condemnation
from the people; it is true that that
legislature sought to divert the peo-
pies money. collected in the form of
taxes, from its legitimate channels in
to the pockets of private individuals
and the Golfers of corporations by
means of bounties: it is true that to
do this the University of Utah was to
be crippled that money to pay the
bounties might be had; it is true that
the republican members deserted their
seats in the halls Of legislation, shirk-
ing their responsibilities and betraying
their constituents, and that they had to
be hunted by officers of the law like
thieves in the night that "a quorum
might be had that the business of the
people, for which the people elected
them, might proceed. All this is true
and more, yet that legislature was
pursuing Republican policies in Re-
publican ways, but the Republican
convention mentions it not. neither
commenting nor condoning it's work
But to the people of Utah, to the
voters who will be appealed to this fall

LAW AND LYNCHING.

The lynching of six negroes in Ten
nessee a. few days ago aroused the in
dignation of the country and drew at
tention anew to lynching in the South
A flew days later came the news that
the conspiracy by which these six ne
groes were delivered into the hands OF
i band of masked ,murderers had been
discovered. 1t was a tale that made an
already heinous murder more heinous
and put a blot upon Tennessee that
she must wipe out if she would retain
the respect of her sister states and
the civilized world. That she will do
this there is no doubt, for Governor
Turney has already taken action to
bring the offenders to justice and he
will doubtless feel that he is personally
concerned in the matter.
When this lynching occurred, The
Herald. in commenting upon it, said
that no negro, charged with arson or
other heinous crimes. where there was
any evidence on which to base a ver-
dict of guilty, could escape conviction
at the hands of a Southern jury. A
case has Just occurred at Bowling
Green. Va, which fully bears out our
remark A negro boy there has been
arrested for rape on a seven-year-old
girl. He was captured and the en-
ragged crowd allowed the officers to
lodge him in Jail. The punishment in
Virginia for the crime with which the
boy stood charged is death. The boy
was indicted. arraigned, put on trial
and convicted, and sentenced to be
hanged on Nov. 4. All this within
twenty-four hours after his apprehen-
sion.
Conviction and punishment would
be quickly reached in every similar
case in the South were the law allowed
to take its course; this is as certain as
anything human can be. When the
law is not allowed to take it's course
lit is because of spirit of lawlessness.
And the remark about the spirit of
Iawlessness is as applicable to the
North as to the South.
What contrast between the Milling
ton affair and the affair at Bowling
Greeni 1t is quite likely that the ad-
verse comment of the press on Tenes-
see had some influence in determining
the Virginia crowd to allow the law to
take it's course. In doing so an exam
pie has been set for the whole South
and one that is more likely to be fol-
lowed in the future than it has been
in the past. If this is done the repu-
tation of the South for lawlessness will
vanish. That reputation has worked
almost irreparable injury to her, and
what in the North has been treated as
an outburst Of passion on the part of
Ia portion of the populace has been held
up as chief Characteristic of the
South. The same crime in one section
of the country has been minimized,
while in the other it has been magni-
fed.
1t is to be hoped that the action of
the populace at Bowling Green will be
the action of other crowds in the South
under similar circumstances in the
future. Then the reign of lawlessness
will be over and that of law will be
supreme
