aUAY as A HUsIoRIsT.

Quay's Interpretation of his victory as
presented to his faithful followers in their
caucus last night was extremely edifying.
You have fought a great battle, ne
said "and you fought 1t fairly and Won
it bravely It was a contest in the inter
est of good government and purity IN
Republican politics." This aroused most
vociferous cheering among the. Quay1tes,
who were delighted TO see their great
leader transform himself, like Tammas
Haggart, suddenly from plain, serious
minded man into humorisL of the first
rank. When the news that Quay had
been fighting for good government and
purity in Republican politics reached the
office of the Philadelphia Press the editor
must have "stood dumb in the same way
that he stood when the lid was lifted"
from Quay's financial operations while
treasurer of PennsyIvania.-New York

ANOTHER STAR IN THE FLAG.

A new star was added to the flag yes
cent sisterhood of five and forty states,
or three times the number of the grand
old thirteen and six over.
Utah is the new member of this most
one of the striking episodes of the cen
fury. 1t embraces the rise and fall of the
Mormon power, the astonishing growth
and decay of the Church of Latter-day
Saints" and. as an incident of it, the
was called the American Wilderness to
the purposes of civilization. The Nor
mons made a splendid fight for their pc
culiar institution" the twin relic of bar
barism,' but they had to succumb at
last. Polygamy was, of course, doomed
from the beginning, but it's leaders were
men of very great ability and magIrifi-
cent determination and aggreSsiveness.-

THE FORCE OF A BICYCLE.

Astonishment is often expressed mat Pc
destrians who are run down by bicyclists
should sustain such severe injuries as
they often do. Few wheelmen probably
realize the force with which they may
strike an unlucky man on foot.
A man weighing $50 pounds and moving
at the rate of ten feet per second (Which
a momentum of 1,5UO pounds, leaving out
of the account the weight of the wheel.
This is sufficient to upset any pedestrian
with terrific force.
The pneumatic tire forms a sort OF fen
der but it is a poor one. A collision be-
tween two wheels, each with a l5O-pound
rider, spinning at the moderate speed Of
seven miles per hour, would result III a
smash up with a force of 5000 pounds.
So that really it is no wonder that b,:y-
Gle accidents are often very serious.-New
York Recorder.

IT WAS James "A. Miner, who, as judge
of the district court at Ogden, allowed a
Southern Pacific employee to say that
he would obey the instructions of his
railroad superiors rather than the or
ders of Judge Miners court, and took
the insult to the court and swallowed
it and called it good. Fine man for a
judge of the Supreme Court of Utah;
got any amount Of backbone and moral
courage.

THAT SURPRISING DECISION.

The Herald maintains the position it
first assumed as to the decision of
Judges Merritt and Bartch on the
right Of women citizens to vote at the
first state election. We look upon the
opinion of the majority of the court
that the Edmunds-Tucker law is ap-
plicable to this case as absurd. We
view the pre-judgment of any cause
by the judiciary as wrong and in the
highest degree reprehensible. And we
think it improper to say the least for
a judge to adjudicate on a question
In which he has an interest, whether
1t be pecuniary, political or personal.
AS to the application of the Edmunds
act to the qualifications of voters un-
der the enabling act and the state
constitution, we present the following:

The lack of legal harmony on the
part of Judge Bartch has been sub
ject of comment from the time of his
appointment. It was thought that
Judge Merritt was familiar at least
with the general principles Of law and
the statutes which have a bearing on
the affairs of Utah. The decision
under review will lead unbiased law
yers and the public to form a very
different opinion.
