POLITICAL RAILRoADISG.

A railroad from this city to the west
ern coast, by whatever route selected,
so that there might be competition
with the Southern Pacific road, would
be a boon to Utah and a blessing to
California Whether it extended the
Utah & Nevada by way Of Deep Creek,
or came up to US from Los Angeles CT
took some other course SO that it gave
us intercourse with the people and
interests of the Pacific coast indepen-
dent of present connections, would be
hailed with JOY by Salt Lakers par
ticularly.
But when such road is built, we
hope it viii not prove 81 political pro-
ject to build up the Republican party.
Rumors of bargains and deals of that
sort have been rife for some time. It
in them than talk. We shall see be-
fore very. long how much real sub
stance there is to the scheme.
It will not be beneficial to the par
ties to the plot if such it shall prove
to be, if they endeavor to import la
borers on the projected line, pledged
to support the Republican cause in
Utah. There IS an abundance of rail-
road material and plenty of railroad
men in Utah, with teams and tools
adapted to the work of grading and
track-laying, without crowding in a
lot of men and animals from the out
side
Railroads and politics do not form
pleasant combination, usually. al
though they have been in unlawful
cohabitation great deal in this coun-
try. Utah is in some peril of control
by big corporations. and needs Ia, keen
her weather eye open for intrigues to
capture her politically and financially.
We want more railroads. but we need
them for liberty, not for bondage.

Cancellation of them, the militia, at the
word of command from their superiors,
fired, killing some seven and wounding
several others. That dispersed the
mob and maintained the supremacy of
the law. That the occasion should arise
that. made it necessary to fire on the
mob is greatly to be regretted, but
having arisen the militia are to be
commended for doing their duty when
called upon, and the officers for meet
ing the responsibility that was placed
upon them
When mobs attempt to take the law
into their own hands and execute ven
geance upon prisoner, no matter
what his crime nor whether guilty or
innocent, they become lawbreakers
and assume to dictate what shall be
instead of allowing the law to take its
course. 1t is the duty of an officer to
defend prisoner in his charge as he
is merely UNFOLDING the law. On this
point Governor Jones, of Alabama,
says:
Some, indeed, contend that an officer
is not bound in law and honor to fight
In defense of his prisoner, if he there
by risk the loss of his own life, or
where resistance. if attempted, would
prove useless. Such a standard of duty
finds no support in the law of either
GOD or man, and subverts the great
law of honor, which runs through all
the relations of life, that when a man
becomes another's keeper he assumes
relations which he cannot evade or
throw off at WILL no matter what the
personal Peril to himself. A statute
declaring in terms that any officer in
trusted with the custody of prisoners
is bound in law and honor to fight in
their defense against mobs. no matter
what the peril to the officer, or the
probability of successful resistance,
would have happy effect.
An officer is bound to protect his
prisoner, and that may at times mean
the killing of people. AS we view the
case from the evidence, Colonel Colt
and those under him but did their duty
as militia and citizens.

Life After Forty.

The best half of life is in front of
the man of forty if he be anything of
a man. The work be will do will be
done with the hand of a master, and
not of raw apprentice. The trained
intellect does not see ''men as trees
walking. but sees everything clearly
and in just measure. The trained tenn
per does not rush at work like a
blind bull at haystack, but advances
with the calm and ordered pace of
conscious power and deliberate deter
mination. To no man is the world so
new and the future so fresh as to him
who has spent the early part of his
manhood in striving to understand the
deeper problems of science and life,
and who has made some headway
toward comprehending them. To him
the commonest things are rare and
wonderful, both in themselves and as
parts of beautiful and intelligent
whole. Such a thing as staleness in
life and its duties he cannot under
stand. Knowledge is always opening
out before him in wider expanses and
more commanding heights. The pleas
ures of growing knowledge and in
creasing power makes every year OF
his life happier and more hopeful than

tions, by which time a verdict will be
given by the American people. If they
want a change in the tarif-in other
words the Wilson bill-the elections
will go democratic. If they are satisfied
with the present tariff the elections will
go republican. Oregon alone holds her
elections in advance of November and it
is consequently important that full
vote be polled. If good wages and
plenty of work for laborels are ap-
preciated there should be a large
republican majority, and an opin-
ion expressed even down as far as muni-
cipal elections.
