BETTER TIMES A'CoMIN.'

The Democratic tariff is just
beginning to get in its work
and to make itself felt by the
working men of the country.
In the North and the East the
healthy pulsations OF trade are
evident on every hand and we
will soon find a more prosper
Gus condition of affairs right
here in lower Maryland. One
OF our exchanges, the Dover
Dcia7ga,-can truthfully says:
The Democratic tariff law
has now been in operation a
little over seven months, and
despite the predictions OF Re-
publican editors and stump
speakers the working classes
in this country are to-day IN a
more prosperous condition than
at any time during the last SIX
years.
For the past two months
wages have been on the in
crease in nearly every indus
try. and the manufacturers of
textile fabrics in New England
usually the very last to in
crease the wages Of their en-
ployes-have been forced TO
acknowledge that no substan-
tial argument can be advanced
against restoring the wages
paid two years ago. One no
table instance is the action of
the Fall River Cotton Manu-
iacturers' Association, employ
ing 10000 operatives in that
town alone. which decided at a
recent meeting to advance
wages 10 per cent. on and
after April p.

THE UNIONS NEW STAR.

In the late election Utah adopted its
state constitution and elected state Of
hcers. The new constitution prohibits
polygamy, and confers the right of suf-
frage without the distinction of sex. In
several respects it is of advanced, pro-
gressive character. in line with that of
wyoming and other new western states.
The new star representing this new mem
Der or Uncle Sans family will be added
10 the nations flag next Fourth of July,
making forty-hve in all. To fill out in
run the six rows of eight stars each on
the flag will require three more, and
the admission of New Mexico, Arizona
and Alaska.
For nearly forty years Utah has been
seeking admission to the Union, it's first
application being as the State of Des-
eret' in 1856. The population of Utah has
long since been sufficient for statehood
ana now amounts TO about 800. co., but
the presence of the Mormon church and
Its overshadowing influence have been
Objectionable features. The anti-polyg-
amy clause in the constitution formally
removes the objection heretofore urged
against admission, but many persons
fear that statehood will be cloak for
the permanent establishment of poly
ganlic. practices. 1t is highly probable
that the influence of the Mormon church
will be conspicuous in the new state
and that many abuses will consequently
prevail; but statehood will also invite
other elements which in time will coun-
teract old tendencies and Utah will

A GRACEFUL ACKNOWLEDGEMENT

Our morning contemporary makes
the annexed graceful acknowledge
ment in its editorial columns of Thurs
day:
We think for once The Herald is
right; that the Governor, so soon as
the returns are completed, will have
right to call the Legislature, and that
that Legislature will have a right TO
elect two United Statc~ Senators from
Utah Whether that will be eXpedient
until the President issues his procla-
nation is matter to be considered.
We agree with the Tribune that the
question of power and that of expedi-
ency are entirely different. There may
be good reasons why the Legislature
should not be called until it is pretty
sure that the Presidential proclamation
will be issued in time for the Legisla-
ture, if previously assembled, to be
able to convene in regular session i'm
mediately after its sitting to elect
United States Senators. The question
of expense and convenience should be
kept in view and the public interest
should be paramount over all other
considerations.

"CoME TO THINK OF IT."

When we come to think of it, the
reports of Dun's and Bradstreet's for
the last fifteen years have been simply
stories of falling stocks, falling prices
one long nara tive of calamity to
the producing classes. Certainly, it
seems to US as though the financiers
of the eastern cities would pretty soon
discover and act upon the fact that
/ with this steadily increasing depres-
! sion, there must be wholesale ruin at
last.
SO said the Tribune yesterday morn
ing. This, then, is an admission that
the falling prices of the past fifteen
years are not the result of any Demo-
cratic tariff laws.
Come TO think of it, the Republicans
were in power fifteen years ago, and
in 1882, thirteen years ago, tariff
commission was appointed whose re-
port recommended reduction of
duties. But the recommendation was
not needed and the duties, in place of
being lowered, were raised by the tar
if act of 1883.
Come to think of it, Mr.. Cleveland. a
Democrat, was elected President in
1884, yet during his administration
there was no tariff legislation. Still
prices kept on falling.
Come to think of it, Mr.. Cleveland
during his first administration, in
1887, sent to Congress his famous tar
if message, to which message was at
tributed his defeat the following year.
But prices kept on falling.
Come to think of it, General Harri-
son was elected President in 1883, and
because it was generally believed that
Mr.. Cleveland was defeated on account
of his tariff message, the Republican
party, being in full control of the gov
eminent, passed in 1890 the Mckinley
law, which was the highest tariff ever
enacted in this country. Yet this tar
iff high as it was, was not able to
arrest the fall of prices and ward off
the Calamity to the producing
classes"
Our contemporary does not say what
has been the cause Of this continual
fall of prices, but whatever it was, so
far as it was the result of any nation
al policy, having begun fifteen years
ago, perhaps earlier, it began under
Republican rule, and to that party the
blame for falling prices, and the mis-
cry consequent thereon, must attach.

NEW YoRk's CANALS.

The canal system of New York Is the
most elaborate of any in the country,
and De Witt Clinton's name is as in
separately connected with the Erie
canal as NJ. de Lesseps' is with the
Suez canal.
The people of New York have just
decided to expend the sum of $4,000, 600
on the Improvement of their canals.
The system is much larger than the
people of the country at large gener-
ally dem. 1t comprises some GAO
miles of navigable canals and 81 I'M
navigable feeders. On this there are
$50 locks, SO aqueducts, 100 bridges.
SO waste-weirs, 3S5 culverts and nu-
merous smaller structures.

POLITICS AND THE SCHOOLS.


The Herald has always been in favor
of keeping school matters separate and
apart from partisan politics whenever
that was possible. There is no good
reason why party feelings and projects
should be injected into the school sys-
tenn of this city.
Both parties, we presume, will cheer
fully credit the board of education with
having performed splendid work and
Certainly people Of all shades of po-
litical opinion who understand the facts
in the case will acknowledge that, with
praise to the gentlemen who have serv-
ed the public in that body.
Why cannot this condition of affairs
continue? What profit is there in get
ting up q. contention over the political
complexion of the city school board?
No party will be politically benefited
by such a course, and certainly our
educational affairs will not be improv-
ed by intruding into them party int1u-
ences and considerations.
We believe the easiest and best way
would be to return the retiring men,
bers of the board If there is objec-
ton to either of them, let a gentleman
of the same party be selected who viii
be approved by citizens Of both parties,
and thus the balance be kept up which
has rendered the board of education
non-partisan in spirit and act, adj
though composed of an even number
r-fio
This matter should be met in man
ner conducive to the public interest,
and that demands the exclusion OF
party politics from the sphere of the
public schools.
