FREEDOM OF SPEECH.

In a southern city recently, some
Jealous Christian sought ITO prevent
Ingeuson from speaking. This called
forth the following queries from an
exchange: "Why should we object to
freedom of speech or refuse him a
hearing if There are any who desire
to hear? Can he shake the faith OF
anyone who really wishes 10 believe
And will not those be unbeliever1s any
way who do not desire to believe? The
distinguished orator and soplist may
gather in the shekels and tickle the
ears of the humorously disposed, but
he can no more shaitter the Christian s
faith than he can blot~out the stars
or disturb the revolutions of ths
moon"
1t is a great mistake to try to shut
off freedom of speech when it is not
libellous. Far better is it to give ev-
erybody an opportunity to let off the
gas of their notions or grievances
than to seek by any kind of force tic
confine it. So with the publication OF
any theory in religion or politics OIL
science which is unorthodoX. 1t is
wrong in principle and unwise in pol
lev.
AS to the question of desire and be-
lief. much can be said on both sides
People may believe things they do not
wish to believe. and dlsTbelieve what
they desire TO believe. Faith is moi

Yet when people. set their minds

THAT SILVER LECTURE.

Ihe lecture of Miss Phoebe Con-
2lns at the Grand Opera House was
INST heard by as large an audience AZ
IL deserved. 1T was not a perfect lee
tune, either as to manner or matter
but it contained an immense mass of
information, was in the main on fine
right side of the silver question, and
was spoken in clear, forcibIe and
pleasant tones without excess of dec
lamation and yet never tagging in
force. 1t was well worth hearing.
apart from the attraction of the we'll
known lady advocates presence.
AIS a popular, lecture, though, it
was a little too discursive and too
much crowded with facts and figures.
If the silver question had been treated
without branching off INTO other mat
ters-which, however. we admit were
largely relevant to that subject-it
would have been more easily ,grasped
by the average listener. But lit gave
evidence of study and diligence in col
lating evidences in support of the
positions advanced, and occasioned
WONDER at d woman $ extensive re-
searches into such matter.
We have nothing against the rights
of woman in their fullest sense, but
we regard the shafts of satire the
lady hurled at man, though not with
out wit or devoid of truth, as I'M
likely to help the cause of the fair sex
IN their struggles for fun social and
political freedom. Just such efforts,
in our opinion, have Numbered the
otherwise good work which prominent
lady champions of womanIs rights
have attempted to perform.
We understand Miss Couzlns intends
to lecture ON the same subject in
other parts of Utah. If so, we sug-
gest that it be trimmed a little to
make it more popular. And we hope
it will achieve better financial sue
cess than in this city, where in con-
sequence of so many free addresses,
paid lectures seldom pay. The great
abilities which the fair lecturer dis
plays as well as her national fame
ought to draw large crowds of intelli-
gent people as audiences. wherever she
travels

TO PREVENT voTrNG RoGuERY.

IN view of the suspicious that at
tach to the election of 1894 in this ter
ritory, it seems advisable that some
thing shall be done if possible to pre-
vent such scandals in future. The
same may be said of similar proceed
ings in other places. California has
repudiated the Republican attempt to
steal the Governorship but certain
amount of odium attaches to all ap-
parent efforts to subvert the will of
the people at the polls.
The Australian ballot system has its
recommendations as a secret method
of voting, but it may be open to that
manipulation of returns which casts a
cloud of reproach over the latest cleo
ton in Utah. However there is an in
vention which has been tried With
great satisfaction in the east to which
our leading political thinkers should
give some attention. 1t is the Myers
voting machine. which is thus descrlp-
ed:
Almost every man who has examined
the Myers patent, says the New YORK
Tribune, is satisfied that for rapid, easy
and absolutely secret voting it is as per-
feet as human ingenuity can devise; that
it will prevent fraud OF every known
kind in voting, canvassing and return
ing the vote, and so expeditiously does
it register and count the votes that
within an Gaour after the polls close the
result of the election in the entire city
can be known.
The adoption Of the machine will do
away with the cumbrous blanket ballot,
and in the end save the taxpayers the
large sums paid out of the treasury OF
the several large cities and counties for
printing and distributing official ballots,
to say nothing OF the amounts which
party organizations and candidates for
Iofice yearly eXpend for pastors and bal
lots of various kinds. There is no dan
ger of fraud where the Myers machine
is used. for the instant the voter has
pushed in the knob registering his vote
the apparatus is automatically locked,
and SO remains until the voter leaves
the polling booth. The entrance of the
next voter unlocls the machine. Diff
ferent co,ors indicate the cabinets of
the several party organizations, so that
unless the i4literate voter is color-blind
he would be able to pick out the cabinet
.of the party whose ticket he wishes to
vote, without difficulty.
A machine which cannot be improp-
erly manipulated by the most astute
politicians would be the very thing
needful. The legislature of our new
state should be clothed with ample
powers ito prevent as well as punish
frauds in elections. While there is a
doubt cast on the returns of any cleo
ton the will of the people cannot be
said to receive expression by the bal
lot, To preserve the purity of elections
should be one of the foremost matters
10 receive close attention by the congtf-
tutional convention.

those Of the election for members Of
the Legislative Assembly.
Why was not the same rule adopted
in their case? Simply because the Ed
munds act imposed that duty upon the
Utah Commission themselves. They
always acted with that understanding.
They received the returns from .the
precinct judges direct, wltr,cu5 Any
intermediate body. They acted as
they understood the law. The present
Commission did exactly the same as
their predecessors had done from the
beginning.
But There was at the recent cleo
tim ar occasion which dld moi exist
at any previous election for officers
whose rights were to Zoe determined by
the Commission. The discrepancies
which. formerly occurred were not
sufficient to affect the result to any
candidate, therefore there was no
need to go Ito the ballot boxes. The
votes were always so pronounced in
numbers for the successful candidates

changed by a recount, and no dispute
arose requiring it
In this instance, the vote in some
Instances was so close that a few dis
crepancies would change the result
and the law in such case provides that
a recount of the ballots shall be made
to determine the rights of the res.
spectiVe candidates. Who is to make
that recount? The judges of election
in each precinct, as qudicrousIy claimed
by the Tribune? OF course not. They
are not to canvass and revise theil
own work. 1t must either be done by
the Commission, to whom the returns
are required under the Edmunds act
to be sent, OF by some proper per
sons of their appointment. That is
clear from the law.
| We hold to the view shat the Com
mission are authorized and required tc
do the work i'm person. Judge Bartch
rules that 1T must be done by per
sons of their appointment, but does
not say whether those persons must Zoe
a board in each county, or a general
board for the territory as has been
the practice in the other canvass. This
question ought to be determined by
the ruling of a higher court. The notion
of the Tribune viii not stand the test
of either law or logic.

A PALPABLE ARsURnIry.

The latest attempt on the part of
our morning contemporary in the line
of legal ~ argument, is to pretend
that the former Utah Commissioners
constituted the judges of election in
each precinct 'the canvassing boards
in the several counties in this terri
tory to canvass the votes of candi-
dates for the legislature" The pur-
pose in making that Statement is to
convey the idea THAT this was the
work performed by the county clerk
and court under sbhe original law"
This is altogether in opposition to
our neighbours proposition of a, few
weeks ago, that the canvassing board
appointed by the Commission. ITO can
vas the returns of election for county
and precinct officers was the proDer
board to canvass the returns of cleo
ton for members of the constitutional
convention, and that they alone had
power to go to the ballot boxes in
cases Of material discrepancies. Each
of the two notions is as absurd as the
other, and both cannot possibly be
correct.
We presume our abusive and ilIogi-
cal contemporary has abandoned the
last named proposition, which lit so
recently affirmed was the only right
thing; so we may dismiss that alto
gether. But is the other any more ten
able? Let us see:
The law which our neighbor refers
to as "the original law provided for
judges of election in each precinct and
defined their duties. The Commission
never added to those duties The state
ment that they did is entirely untrue.
And how could they as precinct off
GERS be each constituted a county
board to canvass and make an alb
stract of their own work? The coun-
ty board, consisting of the county
clerk and some member of the county
ccurt, received the returns from those
election judges, canvassed them, made
an abstract and if necessary wen. II
the ballot boxes to determine the
rights of candidates
To say that the precinct election
judges could each become the county
canvassing board is to state an alb
surdity-or a piece of Tribune legal
argument, which is the same thing.
The Utah Commission, which in the
start assumed to do several things
for which they were taken down by
the Supreme Court OF The United
sta.es, never attempted any sll h nm
sense as that now claimed for them
hy the Salt Lake Tribune.
What was the rule they established?
Under the Edmunds act they appoint
ei proper persons" to pere6-n the
duties of the county canvassing coards,
in ere body instead Of a board IN each
county. The returns were sent direct
from the judges of electio IN to The
Commission and were turned over to
That board of canvassers. That WAS
the course with all returns except

NEW DUTIES IN FORCE.

Some interesting figures ara shown
by the customs receipts at the port of
New York, on the first dav when gods

of the new duties fixed by The Wilson
act. 1t appears there was a great rush.

the custom house cor many years. The
receipts of duties amounted to 1921,
ass, of which nearly $1'ie,lj0 was paid
on wooden goods.
This should secure the benefit Of Tie
reduced tariff fully to The consumers
in this country. The average rate on
woo.ens under the Mckinley ART during
the last fiscal year was equivalent TO
1852 per cent; under the new law the
average rate is 1882 per cent, or less
than half the average Mckinley rate.
In reality the benefit to consumers viii
be greater than these figures indicate,
for the profits. which are ceckonad upon
duties as Wen as upon cost of goods,
will be reduced in proportion.
OF course there are other goods on
which a very large reduction viii be
made now that the law has gone into
full effect. But we think we can hear
our Republican friends clearing their
Threats to shout a hoarse objection
against thus running down American
labor, which they claim will be brought
into, ruinous competition with foreign
Tabor. That is a cry that takes with
The populalce who do not trouble to

cl,O h.
the tariff ON wooden goods has been re-
duced about one-half, the manufac-
turers of this country will get their
foreign wool free Of duty, and have a
margin on an average Of nearly forty
nine per cent over and above what the
goods they put on the market can be
laid down for here from abroad.
If American manufacturers, with the
advantage of skilled labor and i'm
proved machinery, canot compete with
foreigners when they are placed on the
same footing as to raw material and
have the advantage of an average duty
Of nearly forty-nine per cent, then they
ought to go out of the business and let
some one with brains take their places.
With these advantages there is no
need that labor shall be paid one cent
Jess than when the old exorbitant pro
teetive tariff ruled. There is no good
reason why the duties on wooden goods
should be as high even as they are to-
day. When wooden manufactures were
truly an infant industry" in this
country, the duties imposed were but
one-seventh CT the present figure. As
the industry has grown older and
stronger and more experienced. the de-
mandS for higher duties have become
holder and more grasping. 1t was time
they were reduced to something like a.
reasonable figure.
WOODEN goods manufactured in the
United States ought to he cheaper and
better than ever. If they are not. the
imported articles viii take their place
