HURRAH FOR BOERNER.

Judge William Boerner, pres
ent county commissioner, an
nounces in this issue of The Ian
tern as an independent candidate
for the Office of county collector.
That Mr.. BOerner is fully quail
fed to fill the Office there is no
question. For the past ten
years he has served the people
on the Board of County Commits
siOners, representing Precinct
No. 2, and his constituents have
demonstrated their appreciation
of his faithful services in return
ing him to the Office at five sue
cessive elections, prior to which
he was honOred by the citizens
of the HelOtes precinct as justice
of the peace. In these trusts
Judge BOerner has distinguished
himself with credit and ability.
No man is better acquainted with
the governmental affairs of BeX,
ar county, and should the sOver,
eigns of Bexar county elect him
to the responsible position to
which he now aspires, they can
rest assured that their interests
will be safely guarded and the
duties of the Office efficiently and
faithfully discharged. In Other
words, Judge Boerner would
make them an honest, worthy
bend impartial county tax collec

WAS ABRAHAM LINCOLN AN
ANARCHIST?

"Judical discussions have two
issues. First, to ABSOLUTELY deter
mine the case decided, and second
ly, to Indicate to the public how
other similar cases will be decided
when they arise. For the latter
use they are called precedents and
are Of greater or less authority ac-
cording to circumstances. If the
Dread Scott decision had been
made by the unanimous concurrence
Of all the judges and without any
apparent PARTISAN bias and in ac-
cordance with legal expectation
and the stea dy pratice of the de-
partments throughout our history,
or if Il had been befole the court
more than once and had there
been affirmed and reafirmed
through a course of years, it might
then be factious not to acquiesce
in it as a precedent. But when, as
is true, we find it wanting in all
these claims to the public con-
fidence it is not factious, it it not
even disrespectful to treatit as not
having yet quite established a set
tied doctrine of the country. This
same court once decided a national
bank to be constitutional, but
Genral Jackson, as president of
the United States, disregarded the
decision and vetoed a bill for
the recharter of the bank partly
on constitutional grounds. Again
and again l have heard Judge
Douglas denounce that decision
and applaud General Jackson for
oisregarding it. The sacredness
which Judge Douglas throws
around the vetoed Scott decision
is degree of sacredness that has
never been thrown around any
other decision. l never heard of
such thing. We believe the
vetoed Scott decision to be errone-
Gus. We know that the court that
made 1T has often overruled its
own decisions and we shall do
what we can to have it overrule

THE DEMOCRATIC MEETING.

AT the Democratic meeting
held at Layton last Saturday
night Mark Smith was greeted by
a house full of appreciative people,
people who have voted for him
four times and who will cast their
ballots for him again. Mr.. Smiths
speech was an eloquent appeal for
the cause of free silver. He show
ed clearly that the only hope the
people of this Territory have for
relief is to elect O free silver man
to congress, for silver mingin is our
greatest industry. He spoke of
the hundreds of silver mines now
shut down, and the thousands of
men out Of employment on ac'
count of the demonitization OF
silver, and of the very low price OF
the products of the farm on ac-
count of the scarcity of money.
Frank Cox made very strong
argument in favor of the white
metal and also for Mark Smith
an argument that had great weight
with his hearers. He arraigneC
Buckley O'Niell for having accepted
the nomination two years ago fol-
the purpose of defeating John c
Herndon, and that if he accomp
llshes anything except his own de
feat this year it will be the elect
ion Of Jim Doran, gold bug.
District Attorney, Jones also
spoke a short time in reference tt
the high esteem in which Mr.. Smith
is held, on account of his loyalty
to the people Of Arizona, by the
next President of the United
States, William J. Bryan

"THE county Division sentiment
is said to be again springing up.

To all Of which the people of

fact that county division is threat
ened must not be lost sight Of.
This thing was quietly talked up
by men interested during the Re-

those in the county who assert
that Ed Moore was put forward by
certain ones for the nomination on
that ticket for the assembly fo1
this express purpose. We do not
believe that many of the members
were aware of this when he was
nominated. Care should be taker
that no man is elected to the Leg

McKINLEY'S CHANGE OF BASE.

THE following is a verbatim ex-
tract from the address of VIM. Nc
Kinley, Jr., at the Lincoln Day
banquet, in Memorial Hall, Toledo,
Ohio, Feb. IL, 1891. Mckinley
said:
During all of Grover Clcveland's
years at the head of the govern
ment he was dishonoring one of
our precious metals, one ofour own
great products, discrediting silve
and enhancing the price of gold.
He endeavored even before his
Inauguration to office, to stop the
coinage of silver dollars, and after
wards, and 10 the end of his admin
istration, ,presistently used his power
to that end. He was determined
to contract the circulating medium
and demonetlze one OF the COINS OF
commerce, limit the volume of
money among the pople, make
money scarce and therefore, dear.
He would have increased the value
Of money and diminished the value
Of everything else-money the
master, everything else the servant.
He was not thinking Of 'the poor
then. He had left their side.' He
was not standing forth in their
Defense Cheap coats, cheap
labor and dear money: The
sponsor and promoter of those
protesting to stand guard over the
welfare of the poor and lowly!

or reckless assumptionW

AT the Office of Consul General

met Mr.. John G. Calhoun, the we'll

two or three months and during
that time had been almost con-
stantly with London and European
tnanciers. 81 have tried" said
Mr.. Calhoun, ''to make the fullest
study possible of the financial
question as it is viewed on this
side of the water. 1t is the almost
universal opinion" he went on to
say, "that silver victory in the
United States would be followed,
and almost Immediately, by the
Opening of the mints of Europe to
silver at the same ratio as that in
America. The only government
which might hold out is Great
Britain, which, being purely a com
mercial nation and not produc
ing nation has prospered so under
the gold standard which it has
succeeded in forcing on the rest OF
the world, at the detriment of the
producing countries. But | find
also that it is the universal opin
ion both in London and on the
continent, that Great Britain can
not possibly hold out, for to do SC
would mean great inroads into
their commercial prosperity"

support Mr.. Packer, and that the
people of Layton would support
any man whom the people of SAT-
