Glendinnirg Does Not Like the
Street Lighting Contract.
M'KAY ALSO OPPOSES IT
INDICATIONS THAT A VETO
WILL NOT BE SUSTAINED.
Councilman Dale's Conservative View
Nearly All Employees of the
Various City Departments Paid
Yesterday-Building Permits Is
sued-Health Report.

Mayor Giendinning has about made
up his mind to veto the contract Tor
electric lighting passed at. the last
session OF the city council. This acelon
was expected, inasmuch as the city at
torney was opposed to its passage, not
having been consulted in the matter.
The mayor was seen yesterday af-
ternoon, and when asked whether he
was going 10 veto the contract, replied
that The Herald might announce that
he would, and then he might change his
mind The manner in which this
statement was made indicated that his
intentions at present are in the drec-
tion of veto.
If the contract is not approved, 1T is
believed there will be enough votes in
favor of the same to pass 1T over the
disapproval of the city executive.
Councilman Dale said. yesterday that
the reasons advanced by the attorney
for objection to the matter were that
the city had no option for a renewal
of the contract at the end OF three
years. This, he said, could not be
helped, as the company would not con-
sent to that clause being inserted in
the measure Mr.. Dale though it would
be best not to trifie with the company
any longer, but that with three
years contract at Sc per lamp per
month the council would be doing the
best thing in making the contract
Others OF the council are fearful lest
the Pioneer company recedes from its
position and declines to do any more
bidding, leaving the city at the mercy
of the others, who can charge what
they please and who will not bid for
less than 81 per lamp.
From present indications it would
appear as though the contract would
pass. the objections of tine mayor to the
contrary notwithstanding.

JAPAN'S PROTEST.
DOESN'T LIKE THE PENDING
TARIFF BILL.
Objections Embodied in a Note Re-
ceived From Minister Toru HASH,
Under Date of June 3.

Washington, June 19.-The protest
made by the Japanese government
against the pending tariff bill is
formally embodied in note from Min
lister Toru Hoshi. under date June 8.
The protest is couched in the most
courteous language but there is a
frmness of tone observable that indi-
Gates the remonstrance may be fol-
lowed by acts of retaliation il disre-
garded.
The note begins with an apology for
expressing an opinion that under ordi-
nary conditions might be regarded as
trenching upon domestic affairs, but
cites as a justification the fact that
important japanese interests are in
volved and that in the opinion of the
minister the proposed increase of
duties will injure the United States
no less than Japan by retarding the
growth of promising commercial re-
lations. The articles of japanese pro-
duction that will be most seriously af-
fected. says the protest, are light
weight silks, silk handkerchiefs, mat
ting, hemp and jute rugs, carpets and
tea. In the case of silks the minister
says the proposed duty will amount
to an ad valorem rate of between %
and 100 per cent and upon handker-.
cniefs the duty will be 10 per cent more
These rates. il is stated. are practically
prohibitory and bear upon silks pc
culiar to Japan.
A prosperous trade has been built
up in Japanese mating, now admitted
free and in general use among the
poorer classes. The proposed duty says
the minister, will be so heavy that the
trade cannot survive in this article,
not now manufactured in the United
States. The duty upon hemp. jute
rugs and carpets will amount TO nearly
so per cent, and this is another severe
blow to japanese commerce.
AS to tea the minister says, the
sudden change of the policy of the
United States from free Importation to
a duty of from so to 100 per cent has
awakened in the japanese mind the
gravest fear for the stability of the tea
industry. for years in a depressed con-
dition. although furnishing two-thirds
of the tea imported into the United
States.

According to the great agnostic,
Robert G. Ingersoll. man can never
/ get so low in the gutter of desenera-
ton but what the white arms of some
woman viii be extended to lift him up.
1 She will stand on the banks of the
filthy pool into which he has plunged
and rescue him and take him to herself
with all his imperfections. and bid him
/ be of good cheer, for she loves him.
This condition was verified yesterday
morning when the wife of William
EdgintOn, who is in the penitentiarv
for adultery. appeared before the board
of pardons and asked that the sentence
imposed upon her unfaithful husband
might be cut short and he given his
liberty, because she believed in the
future he would become a better man"
That was the only reason she ave
There was nothing said of the good
he might do in helping her to earn a
living; nothing about the advantages
she might derive: all she thought of
was lettering his condition.
Friends asked the board TO pardon
Edginton. because his wife was i'll and
not able to work hard. They pointed
out that he had been taught bitter
lesson and all that, but the wronged
wanted was a pardon that he might
become a better man.
Edginton was sent to the pen from
Cache county. for adultery committed
with a woman named Anna Nelson.
The date of sentence was October, 1896,
and the time two years. The petition
for clemency was signed by Judge
Powers, Arthur Brown. Judge Hender-
son. and many others of the legal fra
ternity of this city. while nearly ell
the officials of the county in which he
was convicted joined in recommended
ton for mercy. Judge Hart, who SEN
fenced him, declined TO recommend a
pardon, saying the man should serve
II or Is months ere forgiven by the
law.
When all the papers had been pre-
sented. Mrs. Edginton. who was pres
ent with her little girl. bright child.
was asked if she wanted TO say s-lv-
thing. She replied that she would like
to have the board pardon her hus band,
because she thought he would become
a better man."
rs he still your husband?" asked
Judge Zane.
oh. yes. sir. OF course he is my
husband"
His case was taken under advise
ment and later the board announced
it had laid the matter over until the
that time he will be oardoned.

The minister says that while the i'm
perial government does not share the
general belief that this legislation was
intended to discriminate against Jap
anese commerce. it is an unfortunate
coincidence that imports from Japan
most injuriously affected are special
ties of Japanese production. In con-
ciusion the minister says:
As l have had the honor to state,
the imperial government is far from
sharing in a belief for which they find
no warrant in the cordial attitude al
ways maintained by the United States
toward Japan. but nevertheless they
do not think it either wise or prudent
to ignore sentiment which, under
certain circumstances. might have most
unfortunate effect upon the relations
of the two countries. They hope more
over that it will not be forgotten that
mis- feeling may be attributed in some
degree to the fact that no article of
American Importation to Japan pays
at present anything more than a
nominal duty and the further circum-
stance with legislature of Japan has
already signified its intention of here
after levying only a moderate impost
upon American commerce.

The Formal Statement.

Washington, June 19.-The japanese
minister has filed with the secretary of
state a formal statement of the posi-
ton of his government with respect to
the proposed annexation of the
Hawaiian islands by the United States.
Although il is officially denied that
Japan has protested against the annex
alton treaty, it is admitted that the
government has represented in the
strongest terms its expectation in case
of annexation. The letter of the Jap
anese minister on this subject will be
forwarded to the senate for its in
formation in the consideration OF the
treaty.
An interesting scene was enacted in
the diplomatic room of the state de-
partment today when all the parties to
the signing of the treaty for the annex
alton of Hawaii to the United States
were photographed. There were present
as principals Secretary Sherman, who
signed the treaty on behalf of the
United States, and Minister Hath,
Lorron 4. Thurston and w. A. Kinney,
who signed on behalf of the island re-
public. Those present as witnesses to
the agreement were Assistant Secre-
taries Day. Adee and Cridler, of the
state department.
