%Prohibitory tariff duties keep out inn
portations, thus depriving our government
of revenue and affording the trusts an
opportunity to rob the people by strang-
ling competition at home.-Statesman.
The same old rag baby. Without a
tariff, the foreign importations would
simply be enormous. undermining our
manufacturers and farmers, and then,
when competition was destroyed here,
and business blighted, the foreigner
would simply put up prices and we would
be obliged to pay just whatever they
asked, or do without his products. That
is what occurred with salt in 1868, and
repeatedly with tin plate. Our friend
cuts the throat OF his own argument, for
if no duty is placed on importations, how
a the government be deprived of reve-
nue.? No revenue would be paid.

we do not hesitate to say that one of the
best and ablest men the Democrats have
for Governor. is Hon. J. Garland Hurst,

legislature was a pure and cxcelled one,
showing him to be a strong man, honest
and alert, whilst his many charming per
sonal traits, have attached to him a large
number of influential friends. He is a
gentleman, and would make a most ex-
cellent Governor.

Speaking Of trusts, our nelghbor, OF the
Democrat, mentions the "McKinley-Eag-
an-AlgerlBeef Trust" and says: ut has
been active, but instead Of bringing pros
perity it has brought death to our soldiers,
and need and starvation to our soldiers
homes" This is miserable rot, u%njusti-
fed by facts and repudiated by experience
and the truth. 1t is the same stuff the
soldiers Of the..Union heard in the sixties,
and no doubt the people appreciate its pur-
pose. In fact, if one could close his eyes,
and the past could be recalled, and the
years of the beginning Of the war be lived
over again, we would hear similar slurs.
Here is a sample Of the vile trash with
which good government was then as
sailed. 1t is from a speech of Daniel
Voorhees,, a Democratic member Of Con-
gress, delivered before that body Feb. rs,
1868:
"Sir, posterity will hold in remem-
brance the authors of these outrages-
President Lincoln and his Cabinet-in
order to execrate the prostitution which
they have made Of their high offices to
the overthrow of the Constitution. Let
them spend the evening of their days in
bordering over the w~retchedness they
have so needlessly and wantonly caused.
Let them awaken tohear the heart-broken
sobs of the widow, and the pitiful lamen-
tations of the fatherless."
The times are almost alike. Voorhees,
is dead. And Lincoln too, sleeps in the
tomb. The former is almost forgotten,
but the name of Lincoln will live until
the end of recorded time. So, with the
brave and patient and patriotic McKin-
ley. When the sod rests on the graves
of himself and his critics, and future gen.
e~rations scan the glorious pages of the
history of his administration, and view
the glorious growth and valor of the
American Nation, upon whose grave will
the flowers be placed, on whose brow the
garlands? Time Sits out the chaff.

Now, see here, Sonny, we are not over
anxious to discover who killed the bond
issue. You started the ball to rolling,
and 0 apparently desire to stop it, for
fear it will crush one of the editors Of the

friend Johnson, the city attorney, was in
Charleston collecting the facts, and that
his guns would be trained on the enemy
as soon as he returned. Why don't you
let him shoot? Who killed the bill, Som
ny, who killed the bill? Now don't get
excited, but let George tell US? Why
did our delegates let it sweetly die9 DO

St. Anthony must indeed be a
newspaper paradise. Besides the
News and Peak, Editor Acklin has
moved the Sentinel there from Mark
ct Lake, thus making three news
papers now in that town. Not
satisfied with this superabundance
of opinion moulders, along comes
one Walhen, of Logan, who, seeing
the good thing the others have, will
start straight republican paper in
st. Anthony. This will make two
democratic and two republican pa
pers for the town, whose inhabi-
tants number less than 1000. How
they all expect to exist is one of the
egnimas of the times. We suppose
they will though, for a while at
least. When they begin going to
the wall the people, and even the
publishers themselves, will wonder
how they proved to be such suckers.

of the rest Of the state in its Attic

The Pocatello Tribune writhes
and groans and bellyaches about
those who are inclined to uphold
Governor Steunenberg. The reason
for it all is, that the governor has
by his upright and the honest adj
ministration of his office, won a
warm place in the hearts of the
majority of the people in Idaho,
and his ultimate election to the
y. S. senate is foregone conclu-
sion as result. That's what makes
the Trib 'have0eramps, cholera in
fantum and a lot of other petty
political ailments. 1t sees no way
of heading off the inevitable, and
it pretends to be wonderfully i'll.
This play may be necessary to make
a show to recompense the visit of
Senator Shoup to Pocatello some
time ago. Seriously though, the
Tribune ought to give us something
more tangible and with less chronic
earmarks.

be made to deny the Mormon people
their guaranteed rights in other direc
tions. II would be q good thing in
making these notes, to first put down
the fact that Edgar Wilson, elected by
Mormon democrats and silver repub-
lican votes in southeastern Idaho, was
q party to the crime perpetrated ON
Tuesday. Paris Post
The trouble with the above par
agraph is that the people will not
follow the advice, and make any
notes. Its fiat bid for one of two
things, either vote for the next
republican ticket, or division on
! Mormon and anti-Mormon lines,
neither of which the people will
listen to.
AS for Wilson'S vote we don't
know what influenced him, but it is
safe to say that any republican that
Idaho may ever elect to the same
position would have done as Wilson
did. What does the Post think
Hepburn would have done, judging
by past events?
We doubt if any well informed
person in Bear Lake thinks for {
minute that the guaranteed right
of the Mormon people or any othel
church believers, are in leopard,
as result of the Roberts matter
It's personal affair between Rob
erts and the lower house of congress
and nothing to do with the right
of any body else.
Therefore the Posts advice i
wind pure and simple, made witt

THE REASON or IT.

The Montpelier EXAMINER is a dem
ocratic paper. 1t also owes its exist
ence to the patronage Of the Mormon
people. Will it countenance the I'M
seating of Roberts by remaining silent
or will it do its duty and denounce the
unAmerican act committed on Tues
day Paris Post.
O Roberts has not been unseatcd.
He was asked to stand aside, pend
ing an investigation as to whether
or not he is eligible to sit in con
gress. He is charged with being a
polygamist and Of living in viola
ton of the laws on such matters.
The committee Is investigating that
now. What their report will be
we do not know.
The EXAMINER thinks that Rob
erts should have been sworn in,
then if the charges made were prov
en-, he should have been expelled.
We are not a believer in or sup
porter of polygamy, and our under
standing is that, that is the reason
Roberts was asked to stand aside,
pending an investigation. When
the committee reports and congress
acts it will be time enough for com
ment.
lis true good part of the Elk.
AMINER's patronage comes from
members of the Latter Day Saints
church, but we fail to See how this
has anything to do with our failure
to comment on the Roberts matter
The Deseret News says it is no
church fight and we have thought
SO too. Our belief is, that the fact
that Roberts is a Mormon had
nothing to do with his failure to be
sworn in. His predecessor, W. II.
King was Mormon too, but NJ
one ever thought of questioning his
right to his place in congress OF
that account.
It may suit the purpose of the
Post to try to array the Mormon
church members against the EXAM
NER by attempting to stir up al
anti-Gentile feeling, but its effort
will fail. The people will not b,
hoodwinked by any such selfsl
plays. Meanwhile the EXAMINER
is not worrying.
