ga CLEAN DEAL"

The Herald has already expressed its
approval of the idea that we should
have a clean campaign. This is what
is called for by our morning contem-
porary Several times it has an
nnunced that it wants ga clean deal"
1t is posing as the advocate par eX-
cellence of purity in politics. On Fri
day morning it repeated the call for
clean deal, and in the same editorial
in which the demand is made we find
the following expressions, in regard to
persons of it's own party who have Of
Tended the faction which it leads by
declining to act according to it's die
tates. This is what it says of its fell
low Republicans:
'Bunco politician "a thimble rig
ging schemer'' His political dice are
loaded and his political cards are all
marked "Hireling adventurer."
Political bunco steerer." "A live
fake STRIKERS and bankers and
boodlers.'
After running fire of this kind of
filth, our very consistent neighbor
winds up by saying: still we call for
a clean deal in politics in this terri
tory
If that is its idea Of cleanness in
politics, what on earth would it think
was unclean? We repeat that all the
epithets we have quoted are hurled by
our contemporary against fellow Re
publicans. They are not intended for
Democrats. All the "boodling" and
thimble-rigging and "bunco steer
ing is charged against a Republican
live fake" and Republican, strikers
and barkers."
What an exalted opinion our Repub-
Hcan neighbor seems to have of some
of the leaders and members of it's own
political party! But then of course
they are they who do not jump as
the Tribune pulls the string. The ar
gument and reasoning and logic con-
tanned in the elegant language en-
ployed by that paper against the other
faction of its own party are. of
course, unanswerable. In a fight of
that kind the Tribune has the field all
to itself

REPUBLICAN LEGISLATURES.

Chicago papers continue to descant
on the corruption in the Republican
legislature which has been specially
convened at Springfield, Illinois. They
declare that the Doodle element is in
control and that it is running things
with a high hand and with brazen
impudence which defies public senti-
ment
Republican legislatures appear to be
in great disfavor throughout the
country Where they are not accused
of dishonesty they are charged with
incompetency. Some of them were
elected on reform platforms. In such
instances they have been a terrible
public disappointment. They have not
only not reformed public affairs but
they have given evidence that they
need reforming themselves.
Bribery and attempted blackmail are
among the offenses charged against
the Republican legislature of Illinois,
and even Republican organs are loud
in their denunciations of the course
pursuede by the legislators of that
party. It is probable that the next
legislature Of that state will be of
different political complexion. The
people are tired and disguised. They
viii demand a. radical change. 1t is
the same in many other parts of the
United States.
We should think that the people of
Utah, when they contemplate the &C
tons and antics of the only Repubi-
can legislature OF this territory, will
make up their minds that the new
state shall not be disgraced in its first
legislative assembly by d body of men
so incompetent and so unworthy Of
that high position as were the major
ity of the legislature of 1894. Repub-
lican legislatures are at a discount
throughout the country. If we are not
mistaken they will be very much below
par in the state of Utah at the be-
ginning of 1896.

AN ADRoIT POLITICIAN.

Senator Dubois of Idaho is very
adroit as a politician. We do not use
that term in the sense of a statesman.
The gentleman has exhibited a great
deal of shrewdness but not any great
amount of wisdom. He succeeds in get
ting his name frequently before the
public. He knows how to stand in"
with the class of newspaper men that
can give him notoriety in which he and
the class to which he belongs delight.
Quotations from his private remarks
are telegraphed through the country
much more frequently than the ut
terances of older and ADLER and more
distinguished men. Dubois is not the
only politician who succeeds i'm this re-
spect. The public should not judge of
the Importance of any peron's sayings
by the frequency with which they ap-
pear in print.
The latest words of Senator Dubois
which have been published, are to the
effect that ''the next Congress will
not attempt to deal with the tariff
question as a whole but it will put
back the duties on wool" How Senator
the minds of people who read what he
has said and pay any attention to it.
He is not so great a power in national
affairs as to be able to direct in this
matter, and perhaps, although he
speaks so positively, he is only guess
ing at the future He talks of the re-
storation of wool to the dutiable list
as 'the thing in which the farmers of
the west are most interested" and he
declares that 1.-THE new tariff law dis
eliminates against the farmers
There is something funny about all
this. If there are any people in the
country who will be benefited more
than others by the new tariff it is those
same farmers about whom Dubois
speaks. 1t has removed the taxes en-
tirely from binding Irvine, agricultural
implements and machinery, and re-
duced the cost of clothing, fencing ma
terial, and various other articles which
are chiefly used by farmers. AS for
wool, as declared by a western farmers
pepper: 1.-The records show that almost
simultaneously with the passage of the
Mckinley law the price of wool began
going down, and continued to decrease
without interruption until the law was
repealed, when an upward turn in
stantly occurred
The farmers of the west have had
their eyes opened to the sophistries of
politicians of the Dubois class. The
effects of the Democratic tariff law
have been the very reverse of those
which were predicted, and it will be a
cold morning for the Republicans if
they make the issue. in the next cam
paign the restoration of Mckinley pro-
lection, or any part of it. And if they
should succeed in restoring the duties
on wool, it will be the sign Of the
downfall of the g. o. p. heralding its
complete destruction. 1t will then fol- /
low to the grave the parties of eXpedi- /
ency which proceeded it and of which /
it is the sole surviving successor.

tive to enter the political field relying
on his money and not on his ability
or character for his Advancement In
other words, he expects that money
shall have in the political field the
same purchasing power that it has in
the commercial field, and he thinks
that its use in the one field is as
legitimate as is the other. He as
sumes that men are corrupt, that
they have their price Then why
should he not pay the price, having
the money, and get what he wants?
Such a condition of affairs mas
never existed in Utah and no effort
has ever been made to bring it into
existence until the present time when
certain Republicans have sought to
introduce it. 1t is the duty of every
citizen Of Utah to see that the effort
does not succeed; but if it shall, then
Utah will become known as d cor
rupt and rotten borough. Save her
from this disgrace.

DEMAND FOR SILVER DOLLARS.

The trouble is that the people do not
want silver dollars. There is a noun
tain of them in the Treasury, and Who
ever wants them can get them in any
quantity in exchange for bills of any
denomination.
So says the New York World They
are practically in circulation through
the silver certificates issued on them
IN the East, how much gold
is actually in circulation? The
trouble is that those who have con-
trolled the financial policy of the gov
eminent have not wanted the people to
have silver dollars. The policy has
been to say that the people did not
want silver dollars, and to prove that
they did not want them, withhold them
The result has been that they have
not had them and this result has been
claimed by the gold men and those
who were shaping the financial policy
to justify the assertion that the people
did not want silver dollars.
That mountain of silver dollars has
been kept in the Treasury that it might
serve as a terrible example" It has
been argued that it must be kept in
tact that silver certificates could be
redeemed when presented, yet there
was never any hesitation to use the
gold reserve when governmental neces-
sites required. The people are not ex-
pected to ask for silver dollars any
more than Oliver Twist was expected
to ask for more soup. But the people
are asking for more dollars, and will
yet get them.

WOMEN AND CITIZENSHIP.

A country contemporary, of the Re-
publican persuasion of course, wants
the Utah Commission, which it says
8 has decided to allow women to regis
ter this fan.'' to settle a number of
to the citizenship of women through
their marriage to citizens.
The people of Utah should understand
by this time that the Utah Commission
has no right or authority to decide"
any of these questions, and it is not
made their duty to look them up and
''settle" them. The duties of the Utah
Commission are defined in the ninth
section Of the Edmunds act and cannot
be lawfully exceeded.
That body has made some sugges-
tons to the registrars in order to Sc
cure uniformity, and these will proba-
bly, be carried out; as to the naturaliz-
alton laws and those affecting the
rights of citizenship, they stand on
their own merits and they are very
clear.
Any woman who is married to a citi-
zen of the United States, whether he
be native-born or naturaIiZed, ana who
might herself be naturalized by COM
plying with the naturalization laws, is
a citizen by virtue of her marriage and
does not need naturalization. OF course
marriage" means legal marriage.
Alien women may take out natural
ization papers on the same regulations
that alien men may obtain them Ma
tive-born women are citizens n their
own birthright just the same as if they
were men. The law of the land pro-
vides that every person bonn in the
United States is a citizen thereof.
Citizenship and the elective franchise
are two totally different things. Every
woman in Utah who is a citizen, is
twenty-one years of age, ami has re-
sided continuously in the territory one
year next preceding the election, may
register for the election fo- state OIL
GERS. and also for The adoption Of the
if in addition she has re-
sided in the county four months and in
the precinct sixty davs. She must ais"
have been a citizen for ninety days.
There need be no misunders- anding
on these points if people do not try to
confuse them. The lea ling man of the
parties in the several coun-
ties and precincts should make them
selves familiar with these matters 50
so as to be able to give Intelligent ex-
And the country press
should also look up" the law and not
refer folks to the Utah Commission.

THE CUBAN QUESTION.

1t was generally believed last February
both here and abroad when the Cuban
lnSurrection opened with a few struggling
bands OF negroes, mulattoes, AID whites,
that Spain would speedily suppress the
rebellion. This still remained the impress
sion when Marshal Canpos was sent to
Cuba three months ago. Spain has
granted Cuba large measure of auton-
omy, the mercantile and propertied claS-
ses favored the acceptance of this grant,
and an early pacIiication OF the island On
some such iiberai terms as Campos ar
ranged in 1873 seemed probable.
English. French, and Spanish papers
have been forced to take u different view
by last June. Conservative papers, like
the Times and Economist, in England
and the Temps, in France, are pointing
out that after Increasing the Spanish
forces in Cuba from 10000 to 4n,0OO, incur
ring an expenditure of 100000 month.
and making provision for raising 100000 900
by issuing $50. 900 of bonds, the insur-
rection is stronger than ever Marshal
CampoS wants a5,0JJ more men in Sep
TENDER, nineteen small launches and gum
boats have been ordered, and the Spanish
cannot prevent men and munitions from
reaching the island. Spain is bankrupt.
Cuba runs behind $5,900,000 year. and
neither country can stand more taxes
The entire Spanish organiza ton, fiscal,
monetary, naval, military, and adminiS-
trative, is visihly breaking down under
the strain, and the end is 40 nearer.
These statements fairly summarize the
Impressions and utteranceS of conServa-
tive, well-informed European papers. II
this is the situation, and 1t appears to be,
the United States will before long have a
clear duty TO perform. IF Marshal Cam
pos can suppress the rebellion promptly
in the fall the United States will not be
sailed on to act If he fails, this country
cannot let wasteful and destructive re-
bellion go on indefinitely. We. cannot
again allow ten years war, like that
which desoIated the island from 1868 to
1873. We cannot allow thel large negro
population of Cuba to drift fby long-con-
unued interlicane warfare Into the semi
savagery from which Hayti and San Do
