TIT FOR TAT.

The New York World takes a philo-
sochical view OF the German decree
against American apples. "A number of
statesmen a. Washington seem dis
posed TO grow excited and indignant
over Germany's act in excluding our
fruits from German markets" says the
World. This seems to them a mon
strous wrong. Yet it is simply an ap-
plication of a doctrine which these very
gentlemen have advocated and enforced
for or own country. They have def
nitely adopted the policy of securing
the home market to our own producers
by imposing prohibitive duties on for
eign products that compete. Germany
has taken a leaf out of their book. In
order to secure the German home mar
ket to German farmers, it has eXclud-
ed the competing American meat and
fruits. If the doctrine is right in the
United States, it is equally right in Ger
many. Yet these statesmen at Wash
l.. gton propose to meet exclusion with
exclusion, to shut out a Frankfurter
sausage for every apple excluded, and
to forbid the importation of German
cutlery. crockery. .woolens and all the
rest. This looks to what is the logical
result of the high protective system
namely, the prohibition of international
trade in anything except the few mutu-
ally non-competing products of each
country. we have built uD a Chinese
wall against German goods. 1t is not
surprising that Germany should build
up similar wall against ours. But is
the process a wise one for either ma
ticn? Is it good policy or good sense to
build the walls higher? Had we not
better tear them down? Americans do
rot buy German products to oblige the
Germans. We buy them because we
want and need them. The Germans do
not buy American pork and apples to
enrich our farmers, but to satisfy their
own needs. Commercial war by en-
barge is about the most idiotic thing
that any two nations ever engaged in.
1t is the insanity of hari-kari. 1t is the
other fellows face. Every step in the
process hurts the nation taking it more !
than the nation against which it is di-
rected. Why shouldn't we be sensible
and civilized? Why not come to rational |
agreement? Why not trade with each |
other on fair terms to mutual advant-
age?"
prolific breeder of ill-feeiing and idiotic
action of anything in the world OF
this there can be no doubt

AN UNGRATEFUL EMPEROR.

1t is said Emperor William has de-
cided that German soldiers who fought
CALAMITY for Germany in the Franco
German war and who have since be-
come American citizens are rot to he
allowed war medals, like their COM
rades who have remained in the cid
country. 1t is a small matter il. itself.
but when men have fought valiantiy
and their comrades are rewarded with
medals for the same deeds that they
perform, they like to be honored also.
There are tens Of thousands Of Ger
mans who have become American citi-
zens and most likely some of them
fought valiantly in the Franco-Ger-
man war If valiant service in that
war is to be recognized they should be
recognized. If they are not they will
feel that the old country has been I'M
grateful and it will have a tendency TO
cause them to feel less ki-dly towards
it, This would be most natural, and
one would think the German emperor
would realize it and act accordingly. A
soldier prizes a medal for gallantry,
but he prizes the liberty of going where
he chooses to make his home much
more. Old German soldiers who fought
in the war OF 1870. and who have be-
come American citizens may not have
medals for valiant service on the field

by Mormon elder, on the opposite side
/ OF The political questions treated, the
paper alluded to would go wild; it
makes so much difference whose OK is
/ gored. And yet if minister of one So
,clety has right to preach from his
pulpit a Democratic sermon. why has
not a minister of any other society a
I rlght to preach a Republican sermon to
his congregation?
The propriety of the sermon that was
preached last night, or of political SER
mons in general. is not the question I'M
uer discussion The present object is
10 snow the inconsistency and hypoc-
risy of certain class of politicians and
tnelr organs, and to further illustrate
the fact that public opinion in this
state IN regard to certain matters is
UNJUST and ridiculous, and requires to
be corrected.
The Herald neither reproduced the
substance of this sermon with approval
nor disapproval, but gave it as part of
the religious proceedings of the day be-
fore. The News says that had a Nor
mon elder delivered a similar sermon
on the other side Of the political ques
ton treated, The Herald would have
gone wild" Our contemporary is
quite wrong; in fact, it seems to have
gone wild over a mere piece Of news:
and this is very strange and very
wrong in paper whose special prov
lnce 1T is to be always possessed of the
peace that passeth all understanding
Our contemporary says that IF
minister of one society has a right to
preach from his pulpit a Democratic
sermon, why has not a minister of any
other society a right to preach a Re-
publican sermon to his congregation
There is no reason in the world Why
he hasn't. 1t is just as proper that
Republican sermons be preached from
pulpits as that Democratic ones be;
and if it is proper for ministers to
preach free silver from the pulpit it
is equally right for them to preach
gold sermons from them. 1t isn't the
proper thing for ministers, priests or
elders of any religious society to preach
politics of any kind from the pulpit; |
and this is the position The Herald |
has maintained, and viii continue to
maintain.
The News seeks to insinuate to its |
readers that The Herald's opposition to |
mixing up the affairs of church and |
state, to the Introduction Of politics into
the pulpit, is confined to the mixing of
the affairs of church and state. the in
of politics into the pulpit by
the Mormon church. The insinuation
is false, and was known to be false
when it was made.
The News cants of inconsistency and
hypocrisy, and yet it is the very en-
bodiment of inconsistency and hypoc-
risy. 1t is ever protesting that it is not
in politics and it recs- with politics;
it is always denounciae colitiaIs1s and
prating of patriots, while it is nothing
f not political and its patriotism is of
the kind defined by DR.. Johnson as the
asst refuge of scoundrels; it sets up
Tor religious paper that it may the
more easily steal the livery of heaven
% serve the devil in; but the day is
passed when it's ranting and its can't
ng longer deceive anybody, and this
wen it should recognize.

CALEB R. BARRATr.


Yesterday morning there died at 81
Mary's hospital one of Utah's best
known citizens. This was Caleb r
Barratt, a man whose name was q
household word in many hundreds OF
homes in this city. For a third of a Gen.
fury he had been a resident of the city
and very few in it were better or more
favorably known. His friends ne count
ed by the thousands, while enemies he
had none. He did not lack enemies be-
cause he was a negative man, for he
was the very reverse of a negative man.
He was man of strong convictions,
and no one ever doubted where he stood
on any important question. It may be
asked how man of strong convictions
who never wavered in them had no
enemies It was because he was a most
genial and sympathetic man, man of
the most engaging and urbane man
ners. he respected the opinions and
rights of all men, and from all men he
demanded respect for his opinions and
rights. He was a man of lofty ideals
in all things. and he made his ideals
the standard of his actions in all
things. In the best and truest sense of
the word he was a good citizen. He
loved and honored his country and its
institutions, but he did not do it os-
tentatiously, for he was true patriot.
So excellent was his character, so high
all his standard that it is difficult to
single out any one characteristic as dis
tinguishing him more than another, yet
if We should single out any one I'VE
should say that it was high sense
of honor; it is not hattery
TO say that he was the soul of honor
He spurned and loathed anything that
sayored of cunning or deception In
public life he was one of the most hon
orable OF men; in social life one of the
most charming. AS host or companion
he was most delightful He was a
great lover of art and good literature,
and his conversation was both solid and
brilliant. His disposition was exceed
ingly cheerful. and nothing could re-
Iress it. Twice he served the people of
this city as postmaster. and he served
them faithfully and we'll; none better
Recently he was summarily removed
from the postmastership, and his
friends felt that a great indignity had
been put upon him, and an injustice
done him.
No more viii the citizens of Salt Lake
see the familiar figure of c. r. Barratt |
Upon their streets They will miss him,
and there will come more to take his
place, but they will ever have for his
memory the kindliest regard. for he was
a lovable man, whom all honored and
But oh. the heavy change, now thou art
Now thou art gone and never must re-
