WHAT A MESS, TO BE SURE.


The attorneys for the Republicans in
the Third precinct in the election case
have made a pretty mess of It, Judge
Bartch has made a worse mess OF 1t.
First he decides that the Utah Com
mission. having the authority to go
10 the ballot boxes when there are
discrepancies in the returns sufficient
to affect the result to any candidate.
and that in this case such discrepancies
exist therefore they must canvass the
votes for all the candidates for the
same osiee in the Third precinct.
Next he issues a writ of prohibition
to prevent them from performing that
duty. holding that the evidence intro
duced in the prohibition case showed
the returns to be all right--the reverse
Of what he ruled in the mandamuS
ca5e-and that the ballot boxes had
been stuffed-Which the evidence did
not establish by any means.
He places the Commission, then, in
the position that they must and they
mustn't. The rnandanaus ruling makes
it their duty to count the ballots; the
prohibition ruling declares they shall
not perform it, Between the devil
ana the deep sea- is the place in which
Bartch j. puts the Commission. 60
ahead and Don't you do it. come
from the same judicial lips. The YER
dict is; You'll be damned If You
don't but you'll be damned If you do"
What can the Commission consist
emily do? Simply nothing. They can
not igsue certificates on the face OF the
returns under the mandamus decision,
they cannot issue them on the canvass
of the votes under the writ of prohibit
ton. That is. they cannot issue the
certificates at all to any of the candi-
dates from the Third precinct. What
ever they should attempt to do in the
matter would run butt against one of
those inconsistent rulings of the court,
The attorneys were warned of the
probable consequences Of their foolery.
Now they can see what a hole they
have placed their clients in. They
want to retrace their steps, and they
propose that the Commission shall
help them That is adding inperti-
nence to their other attacks and shows
the middle they are in.
Even Judge Bartch. one would have
thought. would have been able to see
the folly of granting the writ Of pro
hibition after refusing the writ of
nandamus. He could not have fully
comprehended the opinion of the
Supreme Court on that matter, and
has rushed in where sound lawyers
would fear to tread
And now the Republican candidates
and their attorneys are in stew.
They were wrong in the Sanpete case
they were wrong in this case. Both
have been the means Of bringing for
ward "a mass Of things that will be of
no profit to either party and will ac-
compiish nothing in bringing about
the result desired It Is a. great evil
to have attorneys bent on max
ing needless and improper litigation;
it is a greater evil to have judges on
the bench who do not know their own
mind and are not thoroughly learned
in the law.
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1895-03-01
THE CERTIFICATE QUESTION.

Judge Bartch, by his self-annulling
decisions, having prevented the Utah
Commission from performing the duty
imposed upon them by law in reference
to the election in the Third precinct,
the delegates supposed to be elected
from that precinct are without any
evidence of election.
The enabling act provides that the
election for delegates shall be held, re-
turns made and certificates issued, in
the same manner az for members of
the Legislative Assembly. The Ed
nnunds Act provides that the returns
of election for such members shall be
made to the Utah Commission, who
shall canvass all such returns and is
being eligible for such election, shall
appear to have been lawfully elected,
which certificates shall be the only
evidence OF the right of such persons to
sit in such assembly"
If the candidates said to have been
elected have no certificates they have
no legal right to sit in the convention,
It may be argued that the Edmunds
Act also provides that: Zach house
Of such assembly, after It's organiza-
ton, shall have power to decide upon
the elections and qualifications of its
members That is correct, but il does
not follow that the constitutional con-
vention. which is a special body for
ling act, has any such power.
As a general rule this power Is con-
ferred upon legislative bodies by the
organic law of the state or nation
Where it is not bestowed by law it
does not exist, except to the extent OF
passing upon credentials duly fornu-
lated and presented. The convention
to be assembled will have no power to
perform anything except that which is
bestowed upon it by the enabling act,
That instrument does not confer upon
the convention power to decide upon
the elections and qualifications Of It's
members.
A committee On credentials will be
proper in Its preliminary proceedings,
| but no other than the certificates OF
election can be received as evidence
! by such committee. There may be
proceedings in court that can be re
sorted to for the securing Of rights in
the premises, but they cannot be had
! in the convention without the author
! ity for them can be found in law.
I The Democrats who are out and IN
! iured Will have the consolation OF be-
| ing barred by the remarkable perform
ances Of Judge Rartch. The Repuhh-
cans who are roaring" over the situa-
ton may set it down to the cunning o.
! their attorneys, which IS the essence
| Of unwisdorn, and to their pressure Of
the prohibition inconsistency. They
have placed themselves In a pretty
kettle of Ash.

UNJUST CENSURE.

In the report of the grand jury to
the Third District court appear the fol
lowing words of censure:
This grand jury can only repeat
what has been said by former grand
juries and invariably ignored by those
in authority. This old city jail is a
disgrace to the city and the city gov
epnment, q disgrace to the past and
present mayors and city councils. In
the face. of other lavish expenditures
it is shame that the present structure
exists.
The city jail is, no doubt. niser-
able hole or an aggregation of miber-
able holes. 1t is not d fit place in
which to Confne human beings, even
if they are criminals. AS soon as pos
sible It ought to be abolished, and a
prison and house of detention, with
proper attendants, including matron
for female prisoners, should be substi-
tuted.
IL there was money at hand to ac-
complish this necessary change The
Herald would urge its immediate adop-
ton Just now that is one Of the i'm
possibilities in view of the financial
situation. But something ought to be
done to make the present wretched
quarters a little more endurable until
the right thing can be fully attended
to. Whatever is practicable should not
be delayed. An entirely new city Jail,
however. is a positive necessity
As stated. previous grand Juries have
drawn the attention of the city author
tiles to this nuisance. for such 1t may
rightly be termed The grand Jury
just discharged, however, have done
the Mayor Of the city an injustice. He
is not responsible for the condition Of
the Jail nor for the lack of a new
prison. In his messages to the city
council he has complained officially of
the condition Of that Wretched eStab-
hshment and offered recommendations
as to what ought to be DONE In JUS
tice to him we make this statement.
Unde5erYed official rebuhe is very
unpleasant. Nobody likes to be mis-
understood. and still less to be mis-
represented. There are other improper
illusions in the grand Jury report to
which we will not now make further
reference. But we think greater care
should be exercised in making out
such papers to be placed on file, for
they sometimes help to make up his
tory, and the explanation and the full
! truth are not fled with the original
document. A body organized in the
! interests Of justice should itself at
| least be just
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1895-03-01

the paper used could not be exactly
duplicated.
In each case the difference is 50
slight that it would not be distin-
guished except by close scrutiny. Every
printer and publisher knows shat even
in the same ream of paper there will
be Slight differences in thickness, and
also that in printing q number of tick
cts or other job work. it is not I'M
common for a letter to become bent
or battered.
The Herald does not attempt to say
there was or was not an attempt at
fraud in the Third precinct 1t is
merely the fimsy evidence which some
folks cite for proofs strong as holy
writ that is objected to. And it will
be found on inquiry that the rule would
work both ways If difference in the
thickness and tint of Democratic bal
lots proves Democratic fraud, a sirni-
lar difference in Republican ballots
proves Republican fraud and-"there
you are''
