HERALD Calendar for May.
A DIRTY PIECE OF BUSINESS.

Our morning contemporary remarks
that Democrats were "astonished
when they found a veracious chroni-
cle'' of the meeting they held on Fri
day night. 1t would have been mat
ter of great establishment if "ver-
acious'' account of anything Demo-
cratic appeared in that "chronicler," "
which never appears without blum
der or a lie.
It is not surprising to anyone pres
ent at the meeting that an attempt at
a report of the proceedings appeared
in the Tribune 1t was expected that
being prevented from intrusion into
private gathering of gentlemen, with
the Instincts Of the blackguard which
characterize a paper that will print
private letter picked up on the street,
the Tribune would concoct something
like its effusion Of Saturday. But it
was not anticipated that it would be
quite such a mass of miserable mis-
takes and misconceptions as to the
result
Our Republican neighbor having
quarreled with the Standard, on which
it has exhausted its billingsgate for
some time, and having pitched into
Mr.. Varian and the Republicans who
stood by him in the convention who
are not under the dictation of the
Tribune, is now trying TO manufacture
trouble in the Democratic party, as a
sort of decoy TO divert attention from
the dissensions it has sown in the Re
publican party, and the disfavor it has
fallen into among its own political as
sociates.
Also it needed something to tighten
the recent duIlness of its columns, and
so has ventured on this field of false
hood to attract public attention, and
as fiction is always more congenial to
it than fact. it has blazed away at
bogus object of its own fabrication.
AS to The Herald, it is perfectly sat
isfed with the result Of the meeting
on Friday night and its recognition by
the gentlemen who were present. The
Tribune is off wrong in relation to it
and we believe is so Intentionally. 1t
; always more pleasing to that con-
Germ to falsify an opponent than to
meet it fairly in an argument. The
Tribune is at its old tricks, and the
hand that plays them is not concealed.
1t is a dirty piece of business on its
part but quite characteristic. Its
game is well understood.

NOT A QUESTION OF SUPERIORITY.

The idea of the superiority Of woman
when viewed in association with poll
tics is inapplicable. Whether she is
inferior or superior does not count. In
ferior men and superior men are
equally entitled to vote under the
law. ard their mental, social or other
qualities have nothing TO do with
their voting qualifications, unless they
be idiots, when they are placed on
the same political plane with women;
that is, they are denied the ballot.
Whether women will purify the ball
lot or not has also nothing to do with
the main question. 1t is often brought
into the controversy but it is not pro-
perIy there. In countries where man
hood suffrage has had a hard fight
and has only succeeded by slow de-
rrees, the question of whether the
enlargement of the suffrage would
purify politics was not considered. It
was a matter of justice and public
policy, and the nearer the goal was
reached the better was justice done.
The admission of unenfranchised
men to the exercise of electoral rights
was political elevation for them. In
the same way it will be political free
dom, which is political elevation, for
women. Whether they will elevate
politics or not should cut no figure in
the controversy as to the right or ex-
pediency of the grant.
Equal suffrage stands on the basis
of equal rights to all citizens before
the law. Whether woman is superior
or inferior does not matter. In coun-
try where it is supposed that the peo-
pie rule, woman suffrage is the logical
sequence. The claim of woman should
be made on her rights as a citizen and
not on any assumption of what she
will do towards raising the standard
Of political morality.
We take no stock in the extravagant
anticipations of the purifying effects
of woman in politics. There are differ
ent kinds of women as there are
different kinds of men. 1t is a matter
of liberty, equality and justice. What
women will do is an open question.
Certain 1t is they cannot do worse than
many men, and we do not think they
can do any better than the better class
of male voters in public affairs.

ITS WONDERFUL PROGRESS.
The City of the Saints as 1t Is Today
.-Changes Which IL Few Years
Have Made.

Salt Lake City, Utah, April 2S.-'"The
! letter in the candle points to Utah-the
coming state. The political and social
| interests of its people will now find voice
| in the halls of national legislation and
commerce, while the sparks of achieve
ment, long smoldering, Will burn with
ever-increasing brightness when famed
| by the prosperity which will surely come
with statehood.
The eyes of many have recently been
turned upon this fair territory, not only
on account of its coming Importance in
the political issues of the nation, but also
from the fact of its changed social con-
ditions, its resources and attractions and
its growing financial relatic9 to the sur
rounding states in the west.
| The changes in its political social and
financial condition during. the last few
years have been most marked, and today
Utah is passing through the most impor-
tant epoch in its history, endeavOring to
enter the Union as a free and Independent
state, having passed tnr9 3its1i the late
and for the first time the people of the
territory have recently appeared at the
polls under the banners of Republicanism
and Democracy with a signal victory for
the first-named cause.
The dozen or more schools which have
been erected here but recently are
source of pride to the whole territory,
while the system, generally speaking, is
a revelation, owing to the short time it
has taken to build it up.
Salt Lake has always been a theatrical
town, dating from the days of the stock
company organized by Brigham Young at
the historic theatre which is still doing
business and booking only first-class at
fractions. The new Grand Opera house.
opened on Christmas, employs a first
class stock company from New York and
San Francisco, and has been a great sue
cess from the day of it's opening. a stock
company being an innovation which
seems to have struck the fancy of the
public.
1t is the establishment of these SEEM
ingly unimportant things which have
many more features could be readily spo-
ken of which have had their share in
building up the attractive place of the
present day, the city and territory which
has SO many charms for the visitor, the
tourist or the resident.
But the San Joaquin road is the one to
which Utonians should pin their faith, as
it is a feasible project, backed by the
solid men of San Francisco and planned
to build up the territory through which
1t will run: Salt Lake should and proba-
bly, will take steps to cooperate with the
promoters of this line which will be the
means of enriching this territory ten-fold
Unfortunately this city has had but little
of that hurrying, bustling and pushing
spirit of the San Franciscan, but it is
coming to 1t, and men of this description
are going into business here right along,
entering into everything which helps to
home.

ACCUSED OF MANY FIAT ROBBERIES

TWO COLORED MEN AGAINST WHOM DETECTIVES

Arthur Moore twenty-five years old. of No. 2i5
