A bill to enable manufacturers US.
ing alcohol in the arts to recover the
money due them as rebate has been in
troduced in the house by Representa-
tive Russell. Under a section of the
Wilson tariff act provision Is made
for refunding the revenue collected On
alcohol used in manufacturing, but TIE
secretary of the treasury was author
lied TO prescribe the regulations gov
erning the transaction. Owing to the
failure of this official to lay down any
rules or impose any conditions the su-
prene court has decided that the rebate
cannot be paid out Of the treasury Of
the United States except by a. congress
sional appropriation. To obtain this
the pending bill was introduced. It
seems that it ought to pass. owing to
the obvious intention of the bill under
which the revenues were collected,
and the understanding between the
government and the purchasers at the
time of the purchases. It cannot have
been the intention of the government
to induce men to pay taxes under a
misrepresentation. Therefore. the money
thus paid into the treasury should be
refunded.

AN OFFICE GOES BEGGING.

There te an old adage that the Of
fee should seek the nan" At least
one public Office in Utah is diligently
seeking its man. Nay, more; it is beg
ging for some one to take it.
It was announced some time ago
that the administration had recognized
Alma Eldredge by allowing him to
name the postmaster of WanshiD.
It was an awful responsibility, but
Mr.. Eldredge cheerfully accepted il
and proceeded with that caution for
which he is justly celebrated, to fill
the office in a way to reflect credit up
on himself and to win influence for
his party.
There we've some drawbacks, to be
sure. but the would-be congressman
has had some acquaintance with draw
backs, and IS not discouraged. The
fact that the emoIuments of the Of
fee average about $91 per year while
a $500 bond is required Of the post
master. made the man for whom the
Office sought somewhat hard to catch.
It is reported that every eligible AMI
available man, woman and child in
Wanship has been approached, but the
postal portfolio has met with a uni
form rebuff.
So the Office continues its search for
the man. without regard to sex, color
or previous condition of servitude.
Those who know it VIII have none of

NEW TACTICS SUGGESTED.

A local contemporary prints a eynop-
sis Of a letter received by Governor
Wells from Carl Hard. now a Heuten-
ant in the regular army at Luzon, as
follows:
Lieutenant Hard is pleased with the ap-
pearance Of the Filipinos. and thinks they
are capable Of becoming good citizens.
The women. he says are yirtuOus and
hOme-lOYing. All they need was example,
and that was being given them each day.
If the capabilities Of the islanders
are as described. why shouldn't some
inducement be held out for their devel-
opment? Whv shouldn't they be Civ
en- q chance to govern themselves
If the women are all that Carl has
found them to be, according TO his
letter WIN not give them the good
example he suggests instead of pr0cla-
nations ike that Of the president,
which General Otis blue-penciled, know
ing it would be received on the island
as a declaration of hostile Intentions
COnquests Of peace are in order now,
since administration newspapers are
announcing that the Instruction is

Let the islands be well polieed. the
scattered bands End hiding places in
the mountains the native population

and their plantations, and the school

WILL NOT DO 1t.

There are a hundred Democrats in
Utah who ought to win the congres-
sional election hands down. With the
gold standard bill in congress and
every Republican supporting it, U+an
is not going to add one vote to the Re
publican majority there. With the ad-
ministration making an aggressive
fight for the money powers. Utah is
not going to raise her voice in favor of
what she has already and repeatedly
denounced in no uncertain tones Or
terms. With another presidential cam
paign coming on-with another battle
of the standards opening-Utah is not
going to reverse her record of four
years ago because certain alleged
champions of silver are enjoying a
mess Of pottage. Utah can't do it.
Utah viii not.
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1900-02-05
THERE is TROUBLE AHEAD.

Notwithstanding the dying request
Of Governor GoebeI and the evident de-
sire of his friends TO comply with it,
more serious trouble than has yet oc-
CURED seems imminent in Kentucky.
The sheriff at Frankfort has attempt
ed several times TO serve a writ on
Mr.. Taylor, the Republican leader who
is responsible for the presence Of the
armed outlaws in the capital, one OF
whom shot Mr.. GoebeL The sheriff is
prevented from doing his duty by a
company of the state militia drawn up
in front of the state Offices, in which
Taylor is barricaded and from which
the assassin fired his fatal shot
SO long as the governor defes The
courts of the state and uses the militia
for the purpose of shielding himself or
covering the flight of the murderer, he
is not deserving of sympathy o. con-
sideration.
And while he continues to interfere
with the proceedings Of the state legis-
lature, or to demand, under color of
authority, that the Democrats in that
body shall quit Frankfort and reas-
semble in the mountain rendezvous of
his hired bandits. he is provoking an
uprising of honest. indignant citizens
who may feel the necessity of wiping
out him and his laWless gang for the
good of the state and the welfare of
the general public.
Such a clash viii be deplOrabIe. but
the only way to avoid it is to leave the
matter to the courts. 1t is a state affair
and federal courts have nothing to do
with 1t at the present-stage. The sheriff
is entitled to fair treatment and nei-
Their Taylor nor the assassin has any
right to hide behind a row of bayonets
maintained az the expense Of the state.
