HARD TIMES.

Three years ago, Mr.. Mckinley on
the stump begged the people not to
condemn his bill during the first year
Of its operation. 1t needed time to vim
dictate itself. It was condemned, how
ever. after a short trial of it, by
great majority of the voters of the ma
ton.
A year later Mr.. Mckinley again urg
ed that the voters be not hasty in con-
demning his measure. Give it time.
said he. and it will yet vindicate itself.
The voters agan condemned it.
Another year of the continued opera
ton of the bill has passed, and its re-
suits have fairly eliminated. General
stagnation of trade and industry are
the ripe fruits of excessive protection
after three years of faithful trial
Is a longer trial necessary? Demo-
Gratis think not; and they propose to
try the policy of lessened taxes on the
necessities of life, in order to give re-
lief to the people.
| Republicans say this Democratic pol
| icy will forever ruin the Democratic
party if persisted in. Hence they are
opposing it. Did the Republican party
ever before attempt to prevent the
Democratic party from injuring itself?
People do not usually condemn
policy they have demanded by ma
jority of votes in five successive cleo
tons. before that policy is even given
trial. They demanded tariff reform
nine years ago by a majority of 1OO,-
100000; three years ago by a majority
of nearly a million; one year ago by
majority of over million.
To ask the people not to do. now that
! it is finally within their power, what
they have four times decreed with
heavier emphasis at each time shall
be done. is to tell them they are fools
and are unfit for seif-government This
is what the Republican party is now
telling them.
The Republican party is exceedingly
anxious to have the policy of lower
taxes and stricter national economy,
rejected before it is tried. The leaders
of that party know that single trial
of the Democratic policy will be sufi-
cient to defeat the Republican party
for many years to come.
In the language of a local Demo-
cratic platform, we warn the people
that the forces of ill-gotten wealth and
plutocracy are arrayed against every
effort that tends to abolish the pres
ent system of favoritism towards the
few, or that tends to do justice to the
masses of the people. We encourag
the people to stand by their coIors and
never to relax their efforts till the bur
dens of unequal taxation are lifted
from the over-burdened back of labor
and more fairly distributed upon the
wealthy, the luxurious, and the idle
classes of society,".
Voters, be not deceived on this prop
osition. The party that asks you to
vote against a policy not yet tried, a
policy that cannot even yet be tried
for several months to come, owing to
1.-The laws delay" an evil incident to
our system of government-the party
that asks this. is seeking to betray the
people.

STILL THAT DIFFERENCE.

Our morning contemporary cannot
let go of that imaginary difference of
a dollar and a half on suit of wooden
clothes, which it insists is the only
difference in the cost of the goods in
this country and in England. 1t shows
how thoroughly ignorant it is of the
question. We would not get down to
its language and say at lies" The
trouble is that il has taken the tariff
on the cheapest kind of goods that
merely contain portion of wool,
reckoned how much of that poor stuff
it would take to make a suit of clothes.
calculated the duty on it and called
that the difference.
But from those figures of the McKin-
ley bill. which we have previously
quoted. it will be found that the diff
ference on a suit of wooden goods, that
is all wool, is vastly more than our
neighbours little calculation. And there
is this to be considered: 1t is not sim
ply what the high tariff puts on the
cloth itself, but what it puts on a
made UP suit that helps to make UP

could in twenty words stop statehood
for Utah. The Tribune is always ri
diculous when it gets down to figures
Those nine Senators have only nine
votes, if they spoke twenty thousand
words or even as many as they used
on silver. And the Democratic party
can do without those votes. while they
could not give statehood if they gained
all the Republican votes in the Senate
unless the Democrats were willing.

very much worse. Not only would the
country be suffering under the evils
that have come through Republican

monetization OF silver, but there would
be no Immediate prospect of relief.
When Democratic laws and politics.

THE UINTAH RESERVATION.

The opening of the Uintah sand I'm
comphagre Indian reservations to pub
lie settlement means a good deal for
Utah. The introduction of the bill by
Delegate Rawlins for this purpose
met with universal favor from the
people Of this territory. We may look
for the early pressure of this bene-
fetal measure, judging from the dill
gence displayed by the Delegate in
other matters of legislation in the in
terests of his constituents.
There are considerations in connec-
ton with this movement that are
worthy of attention, and the following
letter from an old Indian Interpreter
and traveller, thoroughly familiar with
the question, makes some suggestions
that are well worthy of thought:
Editor Herald:
Dear sir-I notice there is quite an
interest being manifested by many
persons in the proposed opening of the
Uintah reservation for settlement. The
writer of this is fully in favor of treat
ing with the natives for the lands.
Any bill passed by Congress should
look to the rights of the Indians as
well as to consider the best manner of
dealing out the lands to the whites
The manner common in opening
reservations often invites a worse ele-
ment into the countries opened than
the aborigines. Uintah valley contains
a great deal of fine agricultural lands
over and above what the Indians need
for homes.
Many persons claim that they have
no right to the country and should be
forcibly dispossessed of it. This is
not just; neither is it the policy of the
government to rob the natives of their
rights.
President Cleveland has shown in his
message a disposition to deal fairly
with the Indians and any bill that
may be passed will have to show a
reasonable justice and fairness to
them, or he will not likely sign it, so
it will be well to consider this. Again
many persons suppose that if the bill
passes, the country will at once be
thrown open. If people so thinking
will read carefully the interior reports
on Indian affairs they will find that
such bills have passed on other re-
serves years ago, and the lands are
not yet open for settlement. The gov
eminent recognizes two parties in the
business.
Much patience and labor is often re-
quired to get the Indians to consent
to take lands in severalty. force is not
often used, especially where Indians
are inclined to be peaceable, as the
Utes now are.
That the bill may pass is to be
hoped, provided it embodies a liberal
compensation for the lands and guards
well the Indians rights. If this is
done then there will be something to
talk from.
Many claim that nothing but force
will ever accomplish the object, as it
is said the Indians have always re-
fused to consider the proposition. In
dams are much like white men in a
trade. When one wants something
from them they are apt to ask what
are you willing to give me? Your cor
respondent claims to be about as we'll
posted on Indian character as most
people. and firmly believes that if the
Utes are properly approached and Of
fered just compensation for their
lands, with ali the benefits explained

Our morning contemporary in it's New
Years enterprising issue, talks largely
OF the troubles that afflicted the country
during the year that has gone and says
they were the results of legislation

ter times through "a more enlightened
policy" Now that is all correct. But
let every rational mind reflect and an
swer these questions: What legislation

either last year or for thirty years?
Where can we look for a more enlight-
ened policy except to the Democratic

The Republican organ thinks the
Democrats have been buying colored
voters. If that were true it would only
be copying Republican tactics. How
about blocks of five?" But the Dem
ocrstic party has no money to spend
that way. How is it that the Repub-
lican party can never understand how
men can vote against the Republican
party candidates unless they are paid
for it? Is it not a sign of their own
character? Shame!

Keep Accounts.

Keeping household accounts is an at
fair, if not of necessity, still of the great
est wisdom. In comparison with the
small amount of time and labor which
the doing so employs, the satisfaction
of knowing, at the end Of each year,
how the family funds have gone is the
amplest compensation. One especial sat
isfaction gained from the keeping OF
household accounts is the ability, when
or if the necessity arises, to. reduce ex-
penditures ON the outlay for luxurles
and unnecessaries. The money spent for
food, for medicines or for fuel IS capa-
BILE Of far less reduction than that used
for amusements, for wages or for cloth
ing, and a system of accounts which
will show ut once where expenses can
be lessened is entitled to respectful con-
sideration- -Philadelphia Times

WILLIAM WALTER PHELPS.
The Elk Minister to Germany Dies
at His Home at Teneyck, N. j.

ob hA0 AN-~S 49, 10y 49,
New YORK, June LEX Minis
ter William Walter Phelps died
shorty before o'clock this morn
ing at his home at Teneyck, y. J.
He had been i'll long time, and
unite recently went South in the
hope that his condition would he
improved. He derived but little
benefit from his Southern trip,
however, and but short time ago
was so Frustrated that his physi-
clan ordered absolute quiet. Grad
ually he grew weaker, and for the
past few days his death had been
looked for at almost any moment.
His physicians paid their last visit
at 10 rs last night. He died a
few hours later surrounded by his
wife and daughter and his two
sons-John ]. and Sheffield.
The exact nature of Mr.. Phelps
ailment was never definitely stat
ed, but his illness was primarily
from typhoid fever, which was fol-
lowed by meningitis and other
complications. He was not natur-
ally of robust constitution, hav-
ing inherited pulmonary troubles.
Mr.. Phelps end was calm, az
though falling into slumber. Mrs.
Phelps is Frustrated, the result of
her long watch by her husbands
bedside.
William Walter Phelps was
born in New York City in 1889.
He was graduated from Yale in
1860 and Columbia Law School in
1863. He soon became attorney
for several railroads and other cor
porations.
The death Of his father in 1869
and his inheritance to q large es-
tate compelled him to withdraw
from active service and devote his
time to the management of his
property. He took up his resi-
dence at Teaneck, and in 1872 was
elected to Congress from the Fifth
New Jersey District. He at once
took in the House as debater and
an able speaker.
During the first term he was a
member of the com mittee sent by
the House to New Orleans to inves-
tigate the outbreak of the White
League against the Louisiana Leg
islature.
In 1881 President Garfield sent
Mr.. Phelps as United States Min
lister to Austria. On the change OF
administration he at once rendered
his resignation and finally retired
In August, 1882.
He was Immediately elected to
Congress again and continued to
serve through the Forty-eightb.
Forty-ninth and Fiftieth Con
crosses.
In the Blaine Presidential cam
paign Mr.. Phelps was an active
participant, and the defeat of his
candidate was a great blow to him
Mr.. Harrison recognized very grace
fully Mr.. Phelps ability, and az
pointed him Minister to Germany
a position which he filled witt
great dignity and to the satisfac
ton of his countrymen, irrespec
tive of party.
On his return from Germany
Phelps was honored by the appoint
ment as Judge of the Court of APP
peals, Governor Wertz appointing
him. Soon after his graduation
Phelps married Miss Ellen Shelf

of New Hayen, Conn, the founder
of the Sheffield Scientific School o

and it is claimed set the Hawaiian people
in prOper light before the people of the
United States.
The American League held prolonged
meeting last night, at which 1t was de-
termined to force the appointment OF
Walter q. Smith of the star TO position
In the Advisory Council, and that, should
the conservative element attempt TO place
either a missionary or a representative or
the plantation interests in the position,
that they Will Immediately announce
their determination to cease to support
the Provisional Government.
From all that can be learned this morn
ing it is quite evident that the aggressive
element of the country is in the forefront
of the present political movement, and
that Americanism will be hereafter used
as test of trustworthiness in public af-
fairs.
There is little doubt the present Gov
ernment is at last feeling the force of the
popular demand for representation,
which the foreigners never had under the
monarchy, and which they could not
secure under the restoration of the mis-
| SiOnary rule.
This claim is now boldly set up by the
foreigners representing tie mechanical
and laboring clements of Hawaii, eXclu-
sIve of the plantations, and their demand
Is being backed by both popular appeals
ana secret organizations. The latest of
these latter is one by German residents.
! almost every member of which belongs
to the American League.
In an interview held with Minister
Thurston within few minutes he states
that his return to Hawaii was to get in
touch again with the people. Mr.. Thurs
ton claims to have secured the object of
his visit, while many of his constituents
claim that he is going away with a flea in
his ear as to the future of "the American
idea", which it is proposed to substitute
for the missionary idea" that has for
merly dominated here.
Both factions, however, are united on
the proposition that there is to be no re-
stOratiOn.
