MORE DIsAGREEMENrs.

1t appears that the troubles in the
fire department are not yet over The
chief and his assistant do not har-
monte. Devine having been virtually
whitewashed by the Board of Fire
and Police, now attempts the black
ening of Donovan
There should be unity of feeling and
purpose among all the hands in the
fire department and especially be-
tween the heads of that department.
1t may be that the chief has good
ground for his animosity towards his
assistant. That will no doubt be in
vestigated and the public will be
treated to another TRADE of petty OBJ
jections and a detail of paltry quarrels.
The whole thing has become very
disgusting to the citizens of Salt Lake
They think that if this squabbling is
likely TO continue the sooner the whole
thing is cleaned out the better. They
are not satisfied in reference to the
political actions of the chief, in view
of the spirit of the law which for
bids the entrance of politics into the
fire or police departments. Probably
the fire chief will in the future be
more careful on this point than in the
past. Also in his department towards
the men who are placed under his
supervision.
There should be strictness of disci-
pine and a proper enforcement of the
rules and regulations which are neces-
sary for the efficient conduct of the
fire department. But men who are
placed in position of responsibility
and have other men under their di-
rection, can always act as gentlemen
and retain their selfrespect and the
respect of their subordinates, without
putting on airs of superiority or
treating them as though they were
interiors.
We hope that when the difficulty
between the chief and his assistant is
settled, that will be the last we shall
hear of the teapot tempests and
sheet-iron thunder which has ratified
around for some time in the fire de-
partment of this city.

West with the few exceptions we have
named is already on the right side.
Literature and good effective speak
ers should be sent to the region
whence it is popularity expected that
light should come. They are in the
darkness of goldism. The silver rays
OF bimetallism are needed there. The
work before the union is to redeem
them from their benighted condition.
The advocates CT gold, under the
deceptive name of sound money
men, are putting in their work in the
south and will no doubt penetrate to
the west Garry the war into
Africa Send men and pamphlets in
plenty and wake the country TO the
fact that there is sound reason in the
silver question, and that it is on the
side of the free and unlimited coin
age of both money metals. Unless
work of that kind is done, the or
ganization of the Bimetallic Union
will be measurably in vain. There is
no time to be .lost. Bimetallic So

arouse the country from one end to
the other. 1t is ''Bimetallism or

THE COMING CONVENTION.

! The convention of Democratic SOcie-
aies which is to assemble on Saturday
next will be a very interesting meeting.
1t is expected that delegates will come
from all parts of the territory, special
rates having been arranged for on the
railroads and a large gathering is an
ticipated. The theatre should be
crowded with Democrats eager to hear
what has to be said in reference to the
work which lies before the party in
order to secure a great victory at the
next election.
OF course this convention is not the
regular Democratic territorial conven-
ton, but a meeting of the societies
which have been organized TO aid in
the accomplishment of the purposes
of the party. But Notwithstanding
that fact we presume it viii not be a
dumb convention. Ii not authorized
to speak for the party, it viii be able
to speak for itself In this respect it
will essentially differ from the con
vention of Republican Leagues Iscently
held in Cleveland, Ohio.
From the lists of delegates which

number of ladies will grace the oc-
casion with their presence. The invita-
ton extended to the fair sex by the
Democratic societies has stirred up our
Republican friends to initiate that
example. The opposition exhibited by
the Republicans to the participation OF
women in active political affairs, and
M 10
to vote next November has given way
before the force of Democratic ex-
ample, and some of the most intense
haters of womans suffrage are now
almost breaking their necks in their
anxious efforts to assure the ladies that
they desire their aid and association.
Great interest is felt in the coming
convention because of the participa-
ton of woman citizens in Oh its de-
Ebarations. Some of the leading ladies
of the community will be present as
delegates, and no doubt many others
viii attend to see how their sisters
comport themselves in a public politi-
cal body.
We hope that all persons, male and
female, who have been chosen as dele
gates to the convention will do their
utmost to attend. Their presence is
earnestly desired. Plans will have to
be perfected for the work of the socie-
ties during the struggle that lies be-
fore the Democratic party and which
will very soon be commenced.
There is every reason to hope and
expect a great Democratic triumph at
the polls next November. 1t cannot be
effected. however, without diligence,
thorough organization and complete
harmony of purpose and unity of &C
ton. The convention will tend to pro-
mote all these, and it should be one OF
the largest and most profitable of
Democratic gatherings ever held in the
Territory of Utah.

QUICK PUNISHMENT.

When men inclined to crime see that
nothing short of complete vindication
can save a man from sentence once
pronounced they will hesitate to take
the risk. IN this case the prompt pun
jshment of one man who may COM
mand general public sympathy will
exert a larger deterrent effect than
that of ten men for whom no sympa-
1hv is felt. 1t were almost better never
to try man at all than to allow him
TO escape for years through measures
obviously designed to be only diiatory.
Delays in matters of this kind always
tend 20 defeat the general aims Of law
They are peculiarly dangerous when
they are allowed to hamper DEGREES
after the law has done all it can to
ascertain the truth.
There is mucn force in the foregoing
opinions expressed by the Boston Trav-
eler. Punishment should be certain
and it should be quick. By these
means only can punishment have the
effect it is designed to accomplish in
the prevention of crime. Criminals
will figure upon the probabilities of
escaping justice either by flight, by
legal technically, by misplaced sym
pathy or by any other means, and will
commit crimes which, if punishment
were reasonably, certain of speedy en-
forcement, they would hesitate to
commit. It is little less than scandal
ons that men SO. often escape punish
ment. of, if punished, the punishment
is inflicted al time when the crime
is largely extenuated by it's remote
ness.

THE CoMmoN SENSE OF IT.

If a man We're going on Il journey
and had to take $500 with him. would
he carry it in silver. weighing g.
pounds. or in gold, weighing pounds
That is a question which common
sense will answer.
That is question propounded by an
eastern goldite paper. Yes. common
sense will answer. It says, if the mar
has common sense he will not carry
either thirty-two pounds of silver or
two pounds Of gold. He will take a bill
of exchange, or a check, or greenbaclzs.
or national bank notes, with a little
silver change for convenience. There
is no argument against free silver coin
age in the fact that silver is heavier
than gold The business of the finan-
cial and commercial world is chiefly
done with paper The paper repre-
sents real money. In any part of the
United States silver certificates are as
good as gold certificates to make pur-
chases or pay bills. The weight of
either metal cuts no figure in the finan-
cial controversy. AS long as five sill
Yer dollars are equal as 1aoney with
five dollars in gold, anything that
legally represents either will be of
equal value for business purposes.
Common sense easily supplies the
answer to the above query, but not in
the way that the goldite querist bar
gained for. The contemporary that
propounded the foregoing had better
try something harder.

OLD FOLKS, DAY,


The Old Folks excursion On Thurs
day will be attended by an immense
throng. AS one aged person passes
away several more arrive at seventy
years. and thus the ranks are increased
instead of depleted. For this reason
the committee have to adhere pretty
strictly to the rule, that only those
persons who have reached the
SEVENTEEN milestone on the road of
life can receive a free ticket for the
excursion, allowing a proper number
of younger persons to take care of
them on the way. It is a beautiful
custom, which has come to be a part
Of the annual routine of pleasuring in
Utah, that OF giving the old folks a
treat at least once a year, to which
they can look forward with pleasant
anticipation, and remember with CRATE
full satisfaction. All who contribute
to this benefit to the aged will have
Joy in the Iberality and the benedic-
tons of the beneficiaries. The com
mittee are still ready to accept the
offerings of the benevolent.

revenue under the Wilson tariff are re-
garded as highly promising. 1t says:
'.ThiS increase shows that the new tariH,
with its reduced duties, will yield the
government more revenue than did the
Mckinley tariff with its high and almost
prohibitiVe duties. Some 'Drotectionist
Journals are clamcring for higher tariff
rates, alleging that such rates would in
crease revenue. But it is now evident
that a return 20 Mckinley duties on i'm
ports would not increase, but would de-
crease the revenue. and consequently
would cripple the treasury" This is an
unanswerable argument against further
tariff tinkering and against the schemes
of the Mckinley propagandists who
threaten new tariff agitation as the issue
in the next presid entail campaign.-Chi-

GETTING DOWN TO work.

1t is gratifying to know that the
Bimetallic Union organized in this city

amount of good can be accomplished
if the purposes of the Union are fully
carried into effect.
