bined music with housekeeping and sci
ence solely that she might exc out her
brothers earnings and lift him out of
the bread winning stage into the realm
of pure science. 1t was, therefore,
keen disappointment to her to lay aside
her one accomplishment in order to con-
eentrate her power upon mature scien-
tific work.
1t is a noteworthy fact that the Her
schels arrived at science by the road Of
music: for the kindred exactness or the
two branches appealed to their mental
precision.
William Herschel's fame as must
clan and composer was soon exchanged
for that of astronomical diScoverer and
inventor. His wonderful forty-foot tel
escope, the discovery OF the planet
Georsium Sidus in 1871 and Of a vol
canic mountain in the moon in 1873
made him the leading authority in Eu-
rope and caused his appointment as as
tronomer royal in 1888. The modest
salary of 600 allowed him by
George III was much less than he had

ANOTHER "GOOD" TRUST.

The Herald is in receipt of a commu-
nication from the American Publishers
association asking its support, and the
support Of Utah. for a resolution to in
vestigate the paper trust. The pub
fishers set forth the well-knOwn fact
that this particular trust has advanced
the price of news paper from 60 to 100
per cent within less than year; that
the advance is unjustifed, that il is
due wholly to the consolidation of man
ufacturers who have thereby created a
monopoly OF the business; and that the
advance threatens the extinction Of
small publications, to the obvious in
jury of the reading public. 1t answers
all the requirements Of what Utah Re-
publicans call a good" trust.
Two cases have recently come to the
knowledge of The Herald which illus
trate very we'll the effect of this mo-
nopoly. In one case the publisher has
been compelled to pay $500 per month
more for paper than he was paying six
months ago. In the other case the ad-
vance amounted to $500 per month,
although the papers total profits
amounted to only $4,000 a year, and it
is considered one of the best paying
properties on the coast.
While The Herald is quite willing to
support an investigation Of this or any
other trust, it prefers to see that in
vestigation conducted by a congress
composed Of Democrats like w. H.
King. Any inquiry by the pres
ent congress, or its like, would be a
broad comedy farce, because the trusts
elected this congress and are. depended
upon to elect another one Just like it.
The. very association that asks for
this investigation is composed largely
of publishers who contend constantly
in their newspapers that trusts are a
good thing for the country. Unlike Mr..
Hammond. The Herald believes that
any monopoly. whether in news paper,
crackers or tin buckets. is q criminal
organization, whose chief purpose is
robbery of the consuming public for
the benefit of a few capitalists. 1t be-
lieves that the continuation Of the trust

freedom in this republic. and the sub
stitution Of a moneyed aristocracy less
merciful than the privileged classes
whose oppression of the common peo-
pie led to the horrors Of the French
revolution.
1t believes, further, that the voters
of Utah as well as Of the country at
large. have awakened 10 the dangers
that confront them from the trusts and
are determined to send men 10 congress
who will see that the producer is con-
sidered in future legislation and that
the trusts are limited to their legitimate
privileges before the law. That means
the election of a Democratic congress,
the election Of W. H. King to represent
Utah.

NOT UP TO The BILL BOARDS.

Tom Fitch was a victim Of too much
advertising. Expectation stood on tip
toe when this political Jove with his
choice assortment of oratorical thun-
derbolts arose to hurl them at the Salt
Lake public. 1t had been announced
that the whole structure of Democracy
would crunrole under the battering ram
of his invincible eloquence. The gates
Of Janus were to open at his mag
netic knock. Bellona was to fling her
snake-like treSses to the mountain
breeze and Shrek for Hammond when
Fitch rolled golden periods from his sill
yer tongue like hail upon q tin plate
roof in shanty-town. And all the Flu
ries were to rage and strain as he
shook his hoary locks and shouted for
the old flag and another bond issue.
But nothing serious happened. He
took up the harp of imperialism and
smote on all the strings with might. He
lauded England to the skies and thus
evoked round after round of applause
from George Q. Cannon. He appealed
to the imagination in hundred ways.
He was sumptuous and full of grace.
He tried to fly but his flights were
short and attended with heavy breath
ing. Ever and anon he made little
rhymes, blowing bubbles of fancy.
which dissolved in the steam of his per-
spring countenance. Every time he
clutched at the stars the audience no.
tIced that his reach was short.
And so he came and so he goes. Like
second rate circus he failed to fulfill
the promises on the bill boards. With
a great capacity for myth and unver-
acity, he misstated facts with great
loquacity With wonderous vclubility
he told with great tranquility the most
unique absurdities to show his great
ability.
He may have been a hifalutin orator
in his prime. He may have stirred the
souls of men to action. But that day
is past and gone. Tom Fitch is not a
vote maker. AS the Republican organ
says, those who heard him felt that he
might have done better on the other
side. He is not the wonderful orator
heralded. 1t is clear that ne has re-
tired from the DemoSthenes business.
His initials [. f. are more appropriate
at the end of his flaming ADVERTISE
ments than his name is in the body of
the bill.

POTATO PROSPERITY.


A SAT- Lake valley farmer was try
ing to sell a wagonload Of fine potatoes
on Main street yesterday and had trou-
Die IN securing buyers at 25 cents a
pOshel. A year ago he was getting Is
eerts and two years ago 81 a bushel for
the same kind of potatoes.
The potato raiser has to pay from,
10 TIC - per cent more for the i,nple-
ments with which he cultivates his
potatoes this spring; he has to pay Is
per cent more for the wagon in which
he hauls them to market; he must
give lis per cent mora for the wire
with which he fences in his potato
patch; he is paying 80 per cent more
for canned goods, so per cent more for
his salt, IS per cent more for his shoes
and 20 per cent more for his clothing
while raising his crop this spring.
At the same time his product has
decreased in market value from 81 to
% cents.
And this is his prosperity.

The Tribune and it's candidate for
congress seem to overlook the fact that
the Democratic party Of the state and
nation has repudiated Clevelandism
and Olneyism, while the Republican
party Of the nation stands for Hanna
ism and McKinleyism, which the Re-
publican party of Utah has endorsed.
If Utah Republicans would only re-
nounce goldbug Mckinley as the DEM
ocrats have renowned goldbug CIeve-
land they would appear in a better
light. If they were not favoring that
financial policy which they denounce
Grover for adopting they would appear
less inconsistent.

PHILIP DRUNK AND SOBER.

The local Republican organ which, for
almost three years after the election of
Mckinley, declared that this country
had fallen into the hands of thieves
and imbeciles,' and referred to the
president as "a puppet in the hands
of the money power; which declared
time and again that the purpose of
the syndicate in control Of our ma
tional affairs is TO sell the people into
a worse bondage thar that in which
the black man was held before the war

pressed.
