WAS 1T DECENT.

The Heralds structures on the i'm
propriety of Judge Bartcfs position in
reference to the woman voting ques-
ton were very mild in view of the Sit
uation. Yet they seem to disturb the
equanimity of a Republican contempo-
rary. We are almost tempted ITO dig
up some Of its own references to the
judge, but they might be construed as
libelous on the part of The Herald
even in quoting them from another
paper.
Judge Bartch is an open and avowed
candidate for the Supreme bench of
the proposed State of Utah. He re-
ceived the nomination of his party for
the place When he sat on the case
in ques On he was before the people
of Utah for their suffrages at the elsc-
zion to be affected by his decision He
therefore had a personal interest in
the result.
The question to be decided affected
not only the political rights of about
forty thousand citizens, but whether
certain persons running for Office on
the Republican ticket would be elected.
For, it was generally conceded that if
the women endowed with the same DO
litical rights as men at all state cleo
tions should be permitted to vote at
the first state election, the chances
would be largely in favor of the Demo-
cratic party. Judge Bartch is one of
those persons running for Office on the
Republican ticket. And he, occupying
that position, sat on case likely to
seriously affect his political prospects,
and decided in the direction most ia
vorable to those prospects.
The election of Judge Bartch is not
only matter of interest TO him polit-
ically but financially. His ambition
would be fed by his promotion, and the
salary would be a matter of consider
able concern. He is not much of a
lawyer, although it is admitted that
he has greatly improved in that partic-
ular since we went upon the bench.
But it is hardly probable that he could
earn his salt at the bar The place he
covets, then, is a matter of money to
him as well as OF pride, and it would
have been more decent if he had step
| PED aside from a case which was likely
to affect him so seriously.
Some people, who are probably as
honest as most men, are yet very dull
as to the prophecies. Judge Bartch

FUTURE OF BI,IETALLrsM.

The London Times, commenting on
the grave blow given to the hopes of
American and German binetallists,
by Balfour's announcement on the
subject of an international conference,
says that while the American bimetal
lists are made of sterner stuff than
their German brethren, still it is un-
likely that they will ever carry the
country with them. There is no doubt
but that this is the wish of all gold
bugs everywhere, and they have
worked hard to obtain it and will con-
tinue to do so. The Times trusts
that the trade revival now in progress
will cure the silver agitation. A re-
turn of prosperity will not quieten the
silver agitation in this country but
rather intensity it. The endeavor has
tribute to silver the great panic and
depression through which the country
has just passed; but it has not sue
ceeded.
A great weakness of the silver agita-
ton and cause in this country in the
past has been the waiting policy of
the friends of silver. Platform after
platform has been adopted declaring
in favor Of bimetallism but always de-
pendent or international agreement.
international agreement has been
used as a catch word to deceive the
people, but at last the people have
realized this deception and will not be
deceived any more. Active friends and
advocates of silver have also been
deceived, but now they demand separ-
ate and independent action by this
government, and will never cease their
demand until this country adopts free
coinage.
Had all the agitation and efforts for
free coinage in the past been on the
basis of Independent action by the
United States, it is our firm belief that
we would have had free coinage today.
And in the future the American hi
metallists, Of "sterner stuff than
others, will fight for the free and in
dependent coinage of silver by the
United States. With this determfna-
ton, the future of bimetallism is
! brighter than it has been for a long,
long time.
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1895-09-03

may not know enough of judicial rules
and customs and of court decorum, to
sense anything in his position on this
case as at all derogatory to judicial
dignity and inlpartiality. There are
members of the bar, however, some of
them of his own political faith, who
regard his failure to step aside under
existing conditions as humiliating in
the extreme.
We do not care snap of the fingers
for the wrath of those explosive parti-
sans who go wild over censure of their
candidates. We know that decent peo-
pie of both parties regard this matter
in the same light as we do. We have
not entered into the technically legal
aspect Of this question, but have mere
~ touched upon it from a popular point
of view.
And we are Of the opinion that a
man who has no better conception of
the right thing to do in such a con-
tingency than Judge Bartch has shown,
is the last kind of a man to sit on the
Supreme bench of the new State of
Utah. If the voters of the state want
him they ought to have him. But his
election would be very poor evidence
of their judgment as to the qualifica-
tons required in a supreme Judge.
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1895-09-03
A PUBLIC SCANDAL.

The Herald has nothing to retract.
and nothing to change, in it's censure
Of the practice of judicial announce
ment of opinions concerning cases
pending in court. We view it as in the
highest degree reprehensfble. lit mat
ters not of what party or of what sta
ton a judge may be who thus violates
the sanctities of the bench, he lays
himself open to public censure and
ought to receive it.
For several days before the decision
in the women voting case was rendered
by the Supreme Court, it was common
street talk that the decision would be
unfavorable, for, it was said, two of
the judges had expressed their opinion
as adverse to the views Of Judge Smith
The Herald simply mentioned this as
matter of news, and expressed the
views of many persons that such
things were wrong and scandalous
If any person or paper dislike this,
it is evident they are out of harmony
with the general sentiment 1t is pop

say in behalf of many respectable peo-
pie, Democrats and Republicans Jul
dicial decisions ought not to be dis
cussed out of court before they are
made, by the judges who are to an
nounce them. Nor should they be die
tated or influenced by any club or So
ciety or clique in this city. We pro
test against that kind of judicial pro-
cedure and denounce it as disgracefuL
These are our sentiments as well as
those of host of people who feel scan
dalized over the course said to have
been pursued in this regard in several
instances. The Judiciary above all
other officers should be discreet and
not liable to leakage. We mean every
word we have said and may feel in
clined to say more, if occasion requires
or any attempt is made to muzzle the
press. Let the practice be stopped.
That is all we ask at present.
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1895-09-03
is 1T APPEALABLE:

The decision that women, who are
made voters at all state elections may
not vote at the first election, is very
unsatisfactory to many persons of diff
ferent political persuasions. They re-
gard it as legally wrong and politically
outrageous. The question arises, is
there no appeal from SO manifestly alb
surd a ruling? The desire to have it
passed upon by a higher court is very
prevalent.
AS to the meaning of the enabling
act we believe an appeal would lie to
the Supreme Court of the United
States. The question involves the ap-
plication and construction of Federal
sta tute. A writ of error would be pro-
per and would no doubt be considered
by the court of last resort which sits
early in October. On a clear presenta-
ton of the urgency and Importance Of
the question to be determined, the
court would probably advance the case
so as to hear and decide it in time to
affect the election.
Whether the question of the right of
women to vote for state officers at the
first election could be thus carried up,
is doubtful. 1t is connected with the
other but stands on a different basis.
The constitution is not Federal in
strument. Still, as the court has blum
deringly construed the Edmunds-
Tucker act, intended to govern terri
torial elections only, so as ITO apply to
state election, and that act being
Federal law, it is possible that am ap-
peal would lie as to both parts of the
amazing decision.
AS to the wisdom or expediency of
taking the appeal there are serious
considerations. Some things that are
lawful are not always expedient. This
matter will be duly weighed no doubt,
by lawyers on both sides and the con-
sequences will be viewed as we'll as
the law with care before any action is
taken. That il is appealable seems to
! be clear.

A BRAkE-BEAM HEROINE.

If "all the world loves a lover" so all
the world loves romance, for the
foundation of romance is love and ad-
venture.
A dispatch from Butte, Mont, to The
Herald in yesterdays issue told the
story Of how young and handsome"
woman and bow were discovered by
traiumen riding upon the brake-beam.
Here was a young and handsome"
woman in a position as perilous as
ever woman took, yet it all lacked ro-
nance. And why did it lack romance?
Because it lacked dignity. Imagine an
Oriana or a Di Vernon on brake
beam! The imagination of man is not
equal to it. Before any woman who
rides on a brake4beam can look beau
tiful, no matter how laviShly nature
may have endowed her with charms,
she must get rid Of the dust and grim
that have gathered upon in her lowly
chariot, the trucks, and this requires
much soap, Pears, Colgate's or the
universal Ivory, and an abundance of
water. If no king is hero to his

dragged from beneath a car all be-
dragged and begrimmed. She may
come from the sea in storm tossed
boat. her hair dishevelled, her dress in
wild confusion; she may come over the
moor or the mountain on wild
courser, her raven or her golden locks
streaming in the wind and be a heroine
still; but she cannot come from
brake-beam, be she as beautiful as
Venus, and be a heroine. The brake
beam and the tramp are too closely
associated in the minds of the Ameri-
can people to ever be separated. So
long as trains shall run and tramps
shall steal, SO long shall the brake
beam be sacred to them and them
alone.
The young and handsome" woman
discovered riding on the trucks of a
Burlington freight train is not hero

a NAP AND A oopPERHEAp.


Mr.. Thomas Calvert, a dairyman, who
lives just a short distance west of this
city, was taking an afternoon nap on
the sofa in his sitting room, from which
he was awakened by soft touch on his
hand, which was hanging over the side
of the sofa. He glanced down, and, to
his horror, saw a thick, ugly snake which
he at once recognized as the deadly cop
perhead. Its head was elevated and
seemingly caressing his hand, 1t would
run its cold nose up and down his fingers,
causing a sensation which brought the
Precipitation out in great beads on Cal
yert's forehead. Then it would dart its
tongue out and lick the hand like dog.
Mr.. Calvert was paralyzed by fear, and
lay for what seemed to be hours, fearing
almost to breathe, lest the deadly crea-
ture should stick its fangs into the hand
which it seemed now to caress with 50
loving a touch AS Mr. Calvert was de-
vising some escape from his horrible sit
uation his fox terrier Gyp appeared in
the door. Long practice has made GyD
only second to St Patrick as snake
sxterninator. He seized the copperhead
by the middle and shook the LIFE out of
him.-Cincinnati Enquirer.
