Labor World: 1t is gratifying to
note the intense interest manifested
by the workingmen of Salt Lake coun-
" in the success of George A. Whita-
ker's candidacy for state senator.

labor with effect and fidelity.
Mr. Whitaker's nomination having
come as a direct response to the en-
dOrsement Of his candidacy by numer-
Gus labor organizations, it is the duty
of Workingmen to rally their combined
forces to his support, thereby giving
an exhibition of voting strength that

Their one can exert the force that could
be welded by an army of plain un-

been shown in a practical manner. In
no way can it be displayed so forcibly

More French Corruption.

Magnir, formerly proprietor of the
Evenement who has been found guilty
of corruption in connection with the
administration of the France Railway
company, has been sentenced to a
years imprisonment
AS a result Of an accusation made
by NJ Rouanet, In the French chamber
of deputies some time ago, in which
he declared that M. Edmund Magneir,
senator of the Var and then editor-in-
chief and proprietor of the Evene-
ment, had received $500 francs as
part of the profits of the syndicate
organized by the late Baron Reinach
the notorious Panama lobbyist, and
that there was overwhelming evidence
that he had also been corrupted in
connection with the administration of
the South Of France railway. with
numbers of other senators and depu
ties. An investigation was obtained
and M Magneir retired from the
Evenement. He subsequently disap-
peared from Paris, but on Oct / ne sur

CINCINNATI. Oct. 2o.-The Enquiries
editorially says:
The Enquirer presented yesterday
enough about the new book by Senators
Sherman to Indicate that 1T is proba-
bly, the most valuable contribution to
the political history of this country
published for a generation. Sherman
has always been a parity man, but his
tory cannot be written like a campaign
document, and this historian cannot ex-
pect to escape harsh feelings and per-
haps severe criticism if he writes of
the times in which he acted himself.
Mr.. Sherman speaks in high terms OF
the personality and eIoquence of Gar.
field, but says he was a man lacking
In Will power and changed his opinions
easily This is faithful picture. ex-
pressed in terms of reserve. Mr. Sher4
man might have gone farther and only
reflected the views of contenporaneous
Republican politicians who had associ-
ations with the martyr president, and
said that while Garfield was a good
stumper and qualified to act in execu-
tive bodies under direction and re-
straint, he was unfit for leadership. The
statement in this new chapter in poIfti-
cal history that Garfield, in making up
his cabinet, was
Guided by James C. Blaine
in his resolve not to retain Sherman as
secretary Of the treasury, is another
significant reminder. It was the opin-
ion Of many experienced and thought
tuI men that Blaine would run the
Garfield administration The aSSassin'S
bullet cut off a stormy administration
in all probability When so distin-
guiShed d statesman as John Sherman
takes these matters UP it is fairly with
in the province of current journalism
to say that had Garfield survived his
position Of president of the United
States would have been almost pitia-
bic unless his friends had arisen and
brought an irresistible pressure to bear
to GUST Blaine from the cabinet Car
field was always taken care of by his
friends in politics. He was looked upon
as valuable factor in party work,
whose intellect and elOquence should
not be allowed to go to waste. but he
was scarcely in any sense a. leader.
MIR. Shermanis book gives some in
dependent views touching ex-President
Harrison that may be Of immediate APP
plication; and his criticism of the Grant
administration is of service in teach
ing the people that under our system
of government all wisdom and practi-
cal knowledge of affairs need not neces-
sarily be centered in th- chief execu-
tive. The president of the United
States who undertakes to run every
thing in person is usually the most con-
spicuous failure.
The position of secretary of the treas
ury would have been an ideal one for
Mr. Sherman under Grant, as it was
under Hayes. Indeed, it is well under
stood that Mr.. Sherman would revolt
against cabinet service under such
dominating men as Harrison and
Cleveland. He would exercise, in fact,
the independent power which congress
cOnfers on the secretary of the treas
ury or resign in self respect.

BOND SUBSTITUTION.
California Supreme Court sustnfnS
The Acts of Street Railway.

California Supreme Court Sustn1nS
The Acts of Street Railway
SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 2O.-W. f.
Herrin, chief of the Southern Pacific
company's law department has re-
ceived a dispatch from Los Angeles,
stating that the supreme court has af-
firmed the validity Of the ST., 500, 600
bond issue of the Market Street Rail-
way company.
In October, 1899, eleven street rail-
road corporations were consolidated
under the name of the Market Street
Railway company. The consolidated
companies own nearly every street car
line in the city and they have fran
chises for some $50 miles of track.
There was an outstanding bonded
debt owed by the consolidation amount
ing to $7,O35,OOO and to refund this in
debtedness and get more money for
construction purposes the directors
made a blanket mortgage on all the
property of the combine for S17.500. 900.
New bonds for the amount of the out
standing bonds were to be issued at
once under this mortgage and submit
ted for the old issue. Subsequently the
manner in which the bonds were is
sued was attacked, but this decision
sustains the action of the company.
