a SHINING MARK.

The Wyoming holocaust will long be
remembered with horror by the people
of Utah as well as of the state where
it occurred. Of course the sympathies
of our people would go out to the suf-
fering families of the victims to the
explosion, Irrespective of their connec-
lion with our own citizens. At the
same time it is only natural that addi-
tional interest in the terrible disaster
should be entertained in Utah, because
of the relationship borne by the dead
to Utah families and localities.
The cause of the mishap has not yet
been officially ascertained. But whether
it was through foul gas or excessive
and inf1ammable coal dust, a fearful
responsibility rests upon those whose
duty it was to keep the mines clear
OF such causes of danger. Among the
different theories propounded, there
does not appear to be any that casts
blame upon the unfortunate victims or
either of them.
The company owning and operating
the mines are responsible for the con-
sequences of accidents arising from
any neglect on their part to preserve
the lives of their employees. There
should be a searching Investigation
into the actual origin of the explosion,
and the blame should be placed where
it belongs, no matter where that may
strike
One thing must be clear to all, in
the settlement of this dreadful affair.
The wives and children of the mangled
dead ought not to be left unprovided
for. Money. win never compensate
them for their irreparable loss. But
such financial aid as is just and pos
sible should be extended to them by
the company that own the mine, and
public aid should be literally extended
to the suffering survivors. There will
charity and generosity find a shining

lature unnecessarily. 1t may be true
that the union of our higher educa-
tional interests in one institution
would be both economical and bene-
fetal to the cause of education. Con-
sidering the gift of the government for
the special uses and location of the
University, 1t may be the proper thing
to build on that spot and group all the
collegiate institutions there. But there
may be reasons why that should not be
done, particularly as soon as it is con-
templated. and We prefer to leave
some discretion as to that with the
legislature.
1t is because so much can be said
on both sides of this question, with an
appearance of sound reason and desire
for the public welfare, that we dislike
the fixing of the matter beyond posi-
BILE change. and therefore believe that
it VIII be the part of wisdom to leave
the final decision on so important a
financial and educational question
with the law-making department,
which will represent the whole people
Of the territory, and will act after the
people have duly considered the sub
ject and made their decision.
The constitution is likely to be
crowded with provisions with which it
ought not to be numbered and which
viii weaken rather than strengthen an
instrument that ought TO be potent in
its vigorous brevity.

FOR HIGH TARIFFITEs TO CHEW.

= Those Republicans to whom disaster
to British enterprises is food for re-
joicing, and to whom the suffering of
English workers thrown out of en-
ployment is cause for congratulations
as exhibited on the stump by profess
edly pious exhorters during last fall s
campaign, will find additional pleasure
in the news that the invasion of the
English carpet trade by American
manufacturers is doing much damage
to that industry on the other side of
the Atlantic. The Yorkshire CORE
spondent of the Wool and Cotton Re
porter writes:
For them to stand and watch the
rolling in to our ports of carpeting
made on your side is to them the OPP
suits already apparent which has
come about from your competition on
English soil is a cheapening of the
qualities in these lines of British-made
fabrics"
In the Kidderminster district. it Is
reported, the trade is suffering Sc
verely," and that the effect threat
ems to PROSTATE the Brussels carpet
industry in that country"
If under free wool and a reduced
duty on the manufactured article,
American industries of that class not
only flourish here but are able to COM
pete with the dreaded English manu-
facturers with "the pauper labor Of
Europe" what will be the use of the
McKinleyites crying out any more for
high protection and threatening this
country with dire disaster as the con-
sequence of tariff reform?
We have contended all along that
American skill. American energy,
American invention and American la
Dor. ought to and can hold its own
with any nation on earth. and that to
declare the contrary. as virtually pro-
claimed by Republican protectionists,
is an insult to the Drawn. brain and
business ability Of the American peo-
pie.

THE UNIVERSITY PROBLEM.

The discussion over the consolidation

noting the greatest possible public
good. 1t is to. be expected that when
Doctors differ SO widely, some ami
nation and sharp language will be
used. This ought to be restrained as
much as is consistent with vigorous
argument and the plain presentation
of ideas. But there should be no ex-
hibition Of personal motive or DISPOSE

opponents.
We notice that some of our educat-

THE SILVER MOVEMENT.

Reports from across the sea continue
to be favorable Ito the cause of silver.
They indicate that Germany and
France, at least, are ready to join
with the United States in an interna-
tional arrangement for the rehabilita-
ton Of the white metal as money. Eng
land still stands solid as monometal-
lie country, and unless there is a
change of administration there, it is
not likely that she will move from her
gold position, although there is great
demand for advancement from the ag-
ricultural and industrial classes.
Some of the Sanguine silver people
affect to treat the attitude of England
towards the proposed conference with
utter indifference. But it will be found
that Great Britains influence is potent
in the matter and without some con-
cession from that power an interna-
tional agreement will not amount to
very much. But the prospects just now
are favorable to a change in her gov
ornamental affairs. and should the Con-
sevatives return to power, silver will
have much better chances for imme-
date revival.
But, take the prospects altogether,
they are encouraging and give good
reason for hope that silver will soon
regain its lost position. The effects of
the agitation in its behalf are begin
ming TO be felt on both sides of the
Atlantic sea, and the expressions of
~ ~
IDLY affected. Even the New York
Mail and Express has come to the con-
clusion that:
'Bimetallism is evidently growing in
favor in Europe. A number of con-
spicuous and influential statesmen
have declared themselves as ready to
entertain the proposition for a fixed
ratio between the two metals among
the great powers. NJ. Ribot, the French
premier, states that his government is
prepared to take "a position calculated
TO encourage the movement of opinion
in this direction in neighboring coun-
tries 1t would seem that under these
conditions it should not be difficult to
arrive at an understanding among the
principal nations on this subject, espe-
cially as much progress in The right di-
rection has lately been made in Eng
land"
The tide has turned and it is flow
ing in the right direction. But that
should not operate to cause any cessa-
ton, on the part of the advocates of
silver, of their efforts for independent
bimetallism in THE United States. The
silver movement should go on. The
cause of silver education should be
maintained. And no pretense of a set

cratic party from proclaiming the free
and unlimited coinage of silver at the
