What will do II?

Medical writers claim that the successful
remedy for nasal catarrh must be non-irri-
tating, easy of application, and one that
will reach the remote sores and liberated
surfaces. The history of the efforts to treat
catarrh is proof positive that only one
remedy has completely met these conditions,
and that is Ely's Cream Balm. This safe
and pleasant remedy has mastered catarrh
as nothing else has ever done, and both
physicians and patients freely cOncede this
fact. Our druggists keep it.

MUNICIPAL EXPENSES.

A few weeks ago the City Council
seemed anxious to reduce the running
expenses of the city and there were
extra meetings. meetings with heads OF
departments and plans to reduce this
expense and that expense. Has the
! zeal for economy been exhausted in the
contemplation of it? Or was it all a
Fourth of July display of patriotism?
| A week or so ago it was given out
that the police force was to be reduced.
and some eight or ten men were to be
dismissed. The Police Commission haG
made its plans to do this. but it hasn't
been done and the matter seems to have
been dropped. In place of this the pub
lie has been treated to a display of
small jealousies, chickering's and back
billings among the police. All this is
very interesting and may be helpful. but
it is not economy, the thing demanded
by the people
The Council has had ample time to
familiarize itself with the workings of
all the departments, and what their
needs and requirements are. If the ex-
Ipense of any department can be re-
duced by reducing it's force and its ex-
penditures for supplies, then the reduc-
ton should be made and made without
delay. If every department is now be-
ing run with the least number of men
possible and its expenses of all kinds
are reduced to a minimum, then the
Council should so say that the people
may know The city's affairs are the
peoples affairs and the Council is there
to manage them and to keep the people
informed as to their condition.
In this connection a question naturally
suggests itself: If the city's affairs are
being managed as economically as pos
sible, why did not the Council make the
tax rate levy sufficient to meet all eX-
penses and prevent the accumulation of
"a large floating debt? 1t was within
the power of the Council to do this and
it was its duty to do it. If the re-
sources of the city are ample to meet
all expenses, and the Council has known
right along what these resources are
and what the expenditures would be.
why have the expenses not been mace
to come within the resources? These
are pertinent and proper questions and
will be continued to be asked by the
taxpayers.
Let the Council come to some definite
understanding as to what can be done.
and what not, and then do it, that the
people may know how the city's affairs
stand

STRIKERS, RIGHTS.

The Omaha strikers are becoming
more aggressive and determined to
have their own way. They have start
ed out to do this and to defy the au-
thorities of the law They seem to be
defying the authorities forcibly at
present, but it probably will not last
very long. If they triumph through
the methods they are now pursuing,
then the law will have been set aside
and degraded. Were this to happen,
which is not at all likely then popular
government throughout the land would
be dealt a severe blow.
Ex-senator Edmunds, of Vermont,
has recently expressed his views on the
subject of strikes, and he defines per-
fectly what the strikers rights are.
He says:
"A strike is the natural and proper
mode of action of any body of work
ingmen who are dissatisfied with the
nature of their employment or with
their pay. They have the same right
to quit work that any body of men
has to go to work; but when it comes
to the next steD-their undertaking to
deny to other men the same right and
freedom to work that they have not to
work-they are overstepping the
bounds of individual rights and per-
sonal liberty. They are then as
wrong as it is possible for any one to
be. In the employing of men every
man has as much right to work when
and where he will and at what wage
he will as he has not to work. The
employer has no more right to compel
the striker TO work than the striker
has to compel the employer to give
work to certain men and at certain
WAGES. Every man has obviously the
right to work or not. just as he pleases.
The employer has the same right to
employ whom he chooses, and the.
sooner both employer and employed
take that to heart the better"
The question of the respective rights
Of employer and employee has never
been more clearly set forth The pack
ing house employees are assuming to
say who shall work in the packing
houses and on what terms; and more
than this they are using force TO
maintain their theory. 1t would be
just as right and legal for the packing
house owners to compel the men in
their employ to work when they want
ed to quit, and if they attempted to do
the employees to do as they are dong
The working masses are more OF. less
permeated with the ideas of socialism,
and that when organized they possess
rights that others do not. There could
be nothing more erroneous. The rights
of the unemployed to seek work are
as sacred as any right guaranteed I'M
der the constitution. Men seek employ
ment that they may live, and not
merely for the purpose of taking some
strikers place How shall men sub
sist if they may not seek employment
when and where they choose? If
wrongs are inflicted upon employees
to an extent that, in their minds, jus
titles them in going out on strike, this
can give them no right to inflict
wrongs on others.
The rights of strikers are defined to
their fullest by the distinguished Yer
monter, and the Omaha men should
not be allowed to exceed them

sILvER's DEADLY FOE.

The Denver News has a very peril
nent article on silver Its remarks, in
tended for the people of Colorado, APP
ply with equal force to the people of
Utah. 1t comedies that the Republi-
cans of that state are in favor of free
coinage of the white metal, but wants
to know in what way Colorado Re-
publican cen do a, more detrimental
act to the silver cause, than by con-
tributing in any manner to the success
of the Republican party. 1t says:
The Republican party, through it's
guiding forces, having surrendered to
organized wealth more than twenty
years ago. and being within that time
from the opening to the closing act the
deadly foe of silver, what reason is
there to suppose that it will adopt a
different monetary policy in the future?
Do not the votes in the last special SEES
sion of Congress preclude all rational
idea of such a change?
These are facts that cannot be over
come. They may be evaded The
presence of a Democrat on the commit
tee that perpetrated the wrong to sill
yer, and of some Democrats in the Con-
gress that passed the act of "demone-
tization," cannot alter the truth that
the whole legislative and executive
powers of the government were con-
trolled by the Republicans at that time.
The repeal of the purchase clause of
the Sherman act is charged, or credit
ed, as the case may be, to the Demo-
cratic party because it was in the ma
jority when the repeal took place. al
though there was very much greater
proportion of Republican votes, ac-
cording to numbers, for repeal and
against free coinage than of Demo-
cratic votes. The Republican attempt,
THEREFORE, to escape from the position
the party occupied in enmity to silver
in 1873, is as cowardly as it is untruth-
full

its old-time position as money. which

ACT ON THE TARIFF.

The fate of the tariff bill is very
much like that of the souls of the
heathen-open to debate. The minds of
the public were never more thoroughly
made up, their opinions never more
freely pronounced than on the tariff
question in 1892 The verdict in favor
of reforming the tariff and doing away
with the iniquities of McKinleyism was
so sweeping that Democrats and Re
publicans alike were surprised when the
results of the election in 1892 were an
nounced. 1t was the demand of the
country for action on the tariff That
action has not yet been taken. The
House has done what it was elected to
do, and has done it promptly. The
responsibility for non-action on the
tariff rests with the Senate, and par
ticularly with those so-called Demo-
cratic Senators who, falsely marching
under the banner of Democracy, serve
the interest of the trusts.
The House and the Senate have thus
far failed to get together on some few
items. If these items shall prevent the
passage of tariff bill, bill not ideal
y
great relief to the country, then the
Democratic party will be blamed and
accused of incompetency, and must take
the consequences whatever they be-.
Action on the bill is important now
If there is none this session eve believe
there will be- it is almost certain there
will be none next session, it being the
short one. This is the announced policy
of the Republicans as shown by the
party papers. and this policy must be
killed
And what is the duty of the Demo-
Gratis of the Senate? 1t is to force ac-
ton on the bill and to compel the con
ferees to make a report. To the con-
fierce senators belongs this duty and to
no one else. If any parliamentary rules
are standing in the way of needed legis-
lation it is an easy matter to so change
them that they shall cease to be an
obstruction.
What the people today want is ac-
ton, action, action. All is known of the
tariff question that can be known
through reports and debates. The
people would prefer the House bill to
the Senate bill more because they have
greater faith in the House than the
Senate than from any great superiority
of the one bill over the other. Give the
country a new tariff and give it quickly,
and let those who are obstructing its
passage be anathema.

UTAH STATEHOOD.
To the Editor of The Herald:

" lue Inc Herald.
When 1 wrote the other day. to sug.
gest the propriety of the election by
the people, of the best men of all polit-
lcal parties to compose a non-partfsan
constitutional convention, I was aware
of the fact that certain members of the
Republican party were in favor of a
reverse policy. but I hoped that the
good sense and love of country of a
majority of the members of that party
would accept in good faith, and act
upon, the plan sugge sted by myself
land endorsed by The Herald but it
seems in that hope 1 had reckoned
without full knowledge of what was
going on in the secret caucuses of the
Republican managers.
L now perceive that the carpetbag
office hunters, the persons who specu-
late in sheep, buffalOe's and other COM
modities, are bent upon getting up such
a constitution as will protect them in
their industries, provided they can sue
coed in binding the eyes of the people
with wool, hair, and so forth.
Well, SO be it. If such is the policy of
the party of the three p's-plutocracy,
protection and plunder-let them pro-
coed on that line if they think there is
no political hades for them; they may
probably become convinced of their err
ror in due time.

aware of what the Democrats of Utah
will do in the premises, but from what
do know, am satisfied that the pha-
lanX of protectionists will be met at
Phillippi by very earnest and deter
mined foe.
There are many men who belong to
the Republican party in Utah, who I'M
der the non-partisan plan I would be
glad to see elected to the convention;
to name them is unnecessary.
The people of Utah cannot afford to
elect, as delegates, men who are so
narrow in their views of men and of
craftsmanship as to believe that in
their party alone exists all the wisdom
and all the patriotism and statesmen
within the territory of Utah. Nor will
the people, in my opinion, consent to

publican or Democratic partisan con-
sutltion; what they want, and what
they viii insist upon having, will be
