Mischievous Legisla tiOn In None,

Mischievous Legislation In Money
Matters Affects the TOiIer
1t is the relevancy of a statesman's
utterances to the great issues Which
occupy. for the time being, the peo-
pies minds, that gives them their COM
parative importance and prominence
in literature. The question of the
permanence of The national Union
was the dominant one at the time of
Webster's reply to Hayne. and for
years thereafter Hence. that oration
was enshrined in Histories and school
readers and books of elocutionary eX-
ercises. But now that the question of
the nations financial horor is upper
most. this other utterance CT ''the.
godllke Daniel'' is seen to glow with
the same oratorical fire as his reply to
the blatant South CarOlinian. This is
how he puts the question Of the labor
ing mans relation to the currency:
The very man, of all others, who has the
deepest interest in a sound currency, and
who suffers most by mischievous legislation
in money matters, is the mantwho earns his
daily bread by his daily toll. (" - His
property Is in his hands. His reliance his
fund. his protective freehold, his all, is his
labor. Whether he work on his own small
capital or another's. his living Is still earned
by his industry: and when the money of the
country become es deprecated and debased,
whether it be adulterated coin or paper
without credit. that industry is robbed Of
its reward. He then labors for country
whose laws cheat him ont of his bread.

GoLD-BUG SENATORS.

The Boston Herald very excellent
and usually fair and impartial paper,
has this TO say of the western senator's:
Another sage brush state! To the
group consisting of North and South
Dakota, Nevada. Montana, Idaho.
Washington and wyoming is now add
ed Utah. The total male population of
voting age in these eight states accord
ing to the last census is 499, 913 And
yet they ran boast of sixteen members
of the United States Senate. and they
are a senatorial prop for debased cur
rency.
The Herald is very indignant at such
condition of things, but bad as a
sage-brush state is an abandoned farm
state is worse. None of the states
named above have had commissions to
enquire into the cause for the abandon
ment of their farms but such things
are not entirely unknown in dear old
New Engla nd
But to return to the subject Of sage
brush senators. To the broad minds
of the people of the East who favor the
gold standard such an outrage as eight
states with total male voting popu-
lation of 4s9,913 having sixteen senators
in Congress. is almost unbearable,
and shows what terrible strain is
being put upon American institutions.
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1896-01-17

LAS might have been expected, the
Republican legislature of Utah has
turned down the most active, aggres-
sive and earnest champion of silver in
the Republican party in the new state,
Judge C. C. Goodwin. When the Re-
publican victory was announced from
Utah last November the silver men
of all parties in the mountain states at
once congratulated themselves that
Judge Goodwin would be rewarded by
his party with a seat in the United
States senate, and that the cause of
free coinage would gain a powerful
and gifted advocate; but the action of
the Utah legislature has put an end
to all such feeling. Judge Goodwin de-
serves better treatment at the hands
of his party" So says the Butte
Miner The Miner should remember
that the Republican party is a party
of grab, and not of gratitude.

In Senator AInson's contentious reso-
luton censuring Ambassador Bayard
occurs this: TT is the duty of our
nation and all its servants to honor
ably labor for the spread of liberty,
until the mighty day when no shadow
of throne occupied by an earthly
monarch shall be cast across the path
way of men," And when this mighty
day comes and there are no longer any
monarchs to cast shadows, what will
be the duty of the American nation
and those who are so lucky as to be
its servants?

The Utah Senator's.


In Salt Lake City last night the Hon.
Frank ]. Cannon and Arthur Brown
We're nominated by the Republican eau
Gus for The United States senate. This
selection is one that is significant Of the
continuation of the Mormon power, but
omen for the new state. Mr.. Cannon, VINO
is the son of the prominent Mormon
George e. Cannon, represents the new
era. He is a man who will make ms marx
in Washington, for he is a finely edu-
Gated man. a broad thinker and an ora
tor of more than ordinary talent. He IS
young ana progressive and is not IN
sympathy with poiygamy, although he
is he'd to the Mormon church by many
ties. He has been one OF the most untlr-
ing advocates of statehood and has been
for several years most conspicuous IN
the Republican party.
Arthur Brown, who went to Utah from
Michigan. also stands for Mormon in
terests. for he has been the attorney
OF the church in many important cases
and has commanded the confidence OF
the men who have control of the ire
mendous machinery of that body which
holds the balance of political power
Next to the choice of a Mormon, Mr..
Brown will be the most acceptable candl-
date that could be put before the ad-
herentS of the church.
Both these men possess conspicuous
ability and will uphold the free silver
standard. Doubtless they will be able
to show that they represent the whole
state and not faction. In his inaugural
speech, Governor Wells, who is a son of
one of the most noted of the Mormon
bishops and polygamists, defined the
position of the Mormons of today They
are no longer Mormons first. but citi-
zenS OF Utah, and from the ruins of ig-
noble customs and Institutions, most
worthy people will rise. Today, the Nor
mons have a fair promise of future
honors. They possess a power that, if
used right will make their state a brill
liant ornament to the great republic. If,
however. the church is maintained as a
political machine, there are serious diff
cultieS to be encountered and the deyel-
opment of one of the richest regions in
the whole country will be retarded.
Utah's future is a grave trust that the
Mormon powers hold. 1t is to be hoped
that wisdom and justice will triumph
over self interest and church influence

A WALL OVER WOOL.

Free wool has decreased the focks
from 1880, 900 to 100000, a decrease
of Is per cent and beside this. it threw
away revenue of over $S,000,000 per
wear Free trade wool will not much
longer be pulled over the eyes of the
American people.
Such is the wall of the Cleveland
Plain-Dealer. AS wool has been higher
under the Wilson-Gorman bill than it
was the last year of the Mckinley bill.
it is difficult to see how free wool has
decreased the f1ocls some 100000 in a
little over year. According to the
above there would have been a
revenue of $8,000,00O a year. Even in
that case it cannot be denied that the
foreign wool would have come in just
the same, and to the extent it did come
in would have come in competition
with American wool, that is supposing
it We're of the same quality. The
tariff would have allowed the home
producer to recoup himself by adding
100000 to the price OF his product.
The result would have been that it
would have required $S,000,000 more
capital to have done the same bust
ness that has been done on the amount
now invested in wooden manufacture,
while purchasers of wooden goods
would have been charged that amount
more. a class would have benefited
by a tariff on wool while the whole
country has benefited by making it
free. Solicitude for the amount of
revenue tariff Will produce is thing
Of new birth among protectionists.
We are of the opinion that the
American people will not again allow
the protectionists to pull the wool over
their eyes.
