ings or promises made under the i'm
pulse of the moment or in the excite
ment of the campaign
Men are not sent to the legislature
10 carry out their personal wishes or
to honor their personal friends. They
n expected to exercise their best
judgment. to decide every case when
it is presented to them and not before.
Every man and woman whose duty
it is to cast a ballot in the senatorial
election now pending should consider
the best interests of the state.
While favorable national legislation is
apparently out of the question, at least
for several years to come, Utah must
depend upon her own exertions to
bring about prosperity to her people.
And with these facts in mind and a de-
sire to treat all a~spirants fairly, but to
hold the interests OF the state supreme
above them ali, the bestowal of the
honor should be made.
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1899-01-17

was so awkward to handle and cost
so much for repairs. 1t was a serious
problem to TURF her round in an
ordinary harbor, and to get her in and
out of her slip was a matter of the
greatest anxiety and danger, but the
invention of steam and electrical steer
ing apparatus has made such problems
of navigation comparatively easy, and
the captains of the Campania, or the
Kaiser Wilhelm, or any of the other
great ~leviathans of ocean
handle them as if they were a team of
horses. 1t is interesting to compare
the Oceanic with the steamer which
Robert Fulton put upon the Hudson
within the lifetime of many men. John
Sherman was Z years old The late
Senator Morrill, was of age, Representa-
tive Grow of Pennsylvania was 10 years
old. Senator Morgan of Alabama was
6, Senator Pettis was 8, Senator Hawley
was / years old, Senator Cullom and
Senator Allison were infants in arms
when the first steamship was launched
upon the ocean. In 1880 there were five
steamboats, hailing from the port of
New York. The journey from New
York to Washington was made partly
by steamboat and partly by stage, and
it took as much time as is now required
to go TO London"
The ingenuity of man has been about
as busily engaged in sh~ipbuilding as
in any other line of industry. Every
impetus TO trade. every improvement
over old methods, every labor-saving,
comfort-giving device, every arrange
ment to shorten time and facilitate
business every invention Of this char
acter finds a ready market. People
who cross the ocean on vessels like the
Campania, the Kaiser Wilhelm der
Crosse or anv of the modern electric
lighted, thoroughly equipped and
gorgeously furnished ships OF today
have only to recall the stories of their
grandparents to appreciate the magic
of the transformation. And then to
think OF the Pinta, the Nina and the
Santa Maria, not much bigger than
the lifeboats hanging to the Oceanic,
and their voyage of 400 years ago.
What may not travellers expect during
the next quarter of a century?

RATIFY THE TREATY.

The peace treaty win be up for con-
sideration in the national senate to-
day. An organized effort will be made
to prevent its ratification. Senators
who oppose the retention of the
islands taken from Spain claim votes
enough to insure the defeat of the
treaty in its present form. AS its
terms have been agreed upon between
accredited representatives Of this gov
eminent and hat of Spain no amend
ment to the agreement can be made
by the senate.
The treaty nus be ratified as it
stands, or rejected to the disgrace of
the nation.
It IS worse than folly to oppose the
treaty now. No one believes in re-
turning to Spain the islands she has
been compelled to r~elinquish.
Then why not ratify the relinquish-
ment? Why not dispose of the
islands in our " way without con-
sultiHg Spain? Why not end the war
and sever all diplomatic relations with
the power whose treachery, cupidity
and tyranny aggravated the assault
this nation made upon it?
After the ratification the disposition
of the Philippines or the subjugation
Of the natives may be considered.
Let US get rid of Spain first. Then
the islands, if deemed advisable.
BY all mean ratify the treaty. Show
the world that accredited representa-
lives Of this government act with
authority and hat their actions are
backed by the Drawn, the brains and
the resources of the country.
Why should a nation of Europe treat
with the United States if the time spent
IN discussing differences is wasted? To
insure the respect of other governments,
to give the commissioners and diplo-
mats of this one. courage and con-
fdence to demand their rights and
resent insults, the nation should vest
them with all needed authority and
stand by them in the exercise thereof.
There was far too much indecision at
the beginning of the war. There
should be less about bringing the affair
with Spain to q close.
I~ndecision at such times is national
disgrace.

ANOTHER RECORD SHIP.

Belfast broke her record in ship
building last year with a tonnage
launched Of 12L $50 tons, and last week
smashed the worlds record in the
same line.
The largest ship ever constructed was
completed Saturday at Belfast. It is
the Oceanic. built for the White Star
line, and it's length is twenty-four feet
greater than that of the Great Eastern,
although it is lighter and completer in
every detail.
It is described for the Chicago Record
by its Washington correspondent who
compares the Oceanic with the Great
Eastern. The former was $50 feet long
while the latter is 7Ol. Stin the Great
Eastern WAS Of greater beam and ton
mage being eighty-three feet broad,
ffty-eight feet deep, with a displace-
ment of 1880 tons.
The correspondent says: THE
Oceanic is sixty-eight feet broad,
forty-four feet deep and has a dis
placement Of 1000 tons. The Great
Eastern's engines developed only 200
horse power, and her best speed was
eleven knots an hour. The engines Of
the Oceanic are built for Il. 900 horse
power, n she is expected to sail
across the ocean day after day with
her triple screws at the rate Of twenty
miles an hour. which is about
the.sane speed that the new mail serv-
ice from New York to San Francisco
is expected to maintain. The Great
Eastern was a failure as an ocean
carrier, because she took so much coal,

EXPERIENCE OF ILLINOIS.

The Case garnishment law in Illinois
viii, in all probability, be repealed at
this session of the legislature, and,
strange as it may seem, the manswhose
name it bears has introduced the re-
pealing bill.
The time has gone when a man may
be thrown into Jail for debt. And the
justice Of the peace who remands for
contempt a debtor who refuses to pay
a judgment rendered against him,
whether he is able or not, belongs to the
same era
While liberal exemption laws are al
lowed in most CT the states, the wis
dom Of legislators has recognized this
to be the best policy. 1t is the aim of
the law to protect the weak, while the
presumption is that the strong are able
to protect themselves. Unscrupulous
debtors sometimes take advantage Of
exemptions and hold valuable home
steads secure from execution or carry
on business in the name of another,
but often unfortunate business men are
reduced to this subterfuge to shield
themselves from absolute penury and
10 give them a chance to retrieve their
fortunes.
But when it comes to an issue be-
tween the man of a small income and
the maj whose business it is to be a
creditor, the latter has the advantage
nine times out of ten. Most men desire
TO pay their just debts. This rule is
noted for its exceptions, however. Yee
many a man is placed in a false light
when he is trying to discharge his OBJ
legations as rapidly as the law would
require or reason expect, by harpy
collection agencies and persistent cred
itors.
It is the experience of Illinois that a
law which deprives a laborer of means
to live while he pays a debt, defeats
its wv purpose. 1t forces a debtor to
contract negv debts for the sustenance
Of his family, and leaves him, in the
long run, no better off than before.

TWO SIDES TO THE CASE.

Referring to the dramatic scene in
the Montana legislature, when Senator
Whitesides produced thirty ST. coo bills
and claimed hat he had received it as
a bribe to vote for Clark, the Chicago
Record recalls a similar incident in the
Kansas Legislature many years ago..
"A member Of the Kansas state SEN
ate by the name of York aid $1,000 on
the presiding officers table and de-
clared that it had been given him as a
bride by Senator S. c.. Pomeroy, who
vas a candidate for reelection. Pome-
roy denied the charge and insisted it
was a conspiracy of his opponents, but
nevertheless it resulted in his defeat
and the election Of John ]. ingalls, as
his successor"
Whether POmeroy was guilty or not,
his case has served as a precedent for
schemeTs and has opened up a field Of
possibilities for political tricksters.
Their plans seldom materialize, it is
true, but he opportunities to take adj
vantage of the adherence of the
American people for bribery and cor
ruption are almost, if not quite, as al
Turing as the chances for the briber
himself.
CORPORATIONS which exist by reason
of national aid and favoritism, whose
future depends upon congressional en-
actments, have been known to go al
most any length to prevent adverse in
terests from obtaining any standing at
the nations capital.
The Southern Pacific, for instance,
has never failed, for many years, 20
take a prominent part in the senatorial
contests at Sacramento. Coils p.
Huntington generally has a candidate
Of his own, but he is chiefly interested
in seeing that no man interested IN
subjecting the Huntington railway oc-
toDus to competition is elected either
to the house or to the senate. IF there
is any sort of a trick TO which Coils
viii not resort to accomplish this end
it is not of record.
Still, there are cases where bribery
succeeds year after year. The Hannas,
the Quays, the Elkinses and many
other prominent leaders are charged
with corruption in almost every cam
paign. But these men are notorious in
their me Of politics. They have been
nurtured in the public treasury; main
tanned politically by the men and trusts
they have aided at the expense of the
government.
Pomeroy may have been guilty of the
charge made by Mr.. York. Or he may
have been the victim of a conspiracy
in which York played the conspicuous
