Denver, Colo, July 11.-An error

| AND BOARD NOMINEES.

By sending in for confirmation the
appointment of w. ]. Lynch and W. d.
Candland as members of the state
land board, Governor Cutler gives no
tice that the scandal in the board does
not impress him as worthy of notice
To the public mind the governors no.
ton of the boards record will appear
unworthy of his office.
It viii be remembered that Lynch
condoned, if he did not actually an
prove by inaction. the abuse of his
position by a clerk of the board who
gave his friends information Of what
should have been confidential records
of applications for land. On the
strength of this information, these
friends secured lands which others de-
sired. In the case of at least one COM
missioner, he secured for himself
lease of public lands which, presum-
ably, was profitable to him.
Unfortunately. neither the action of
the clerk nor of the commissioner was
Illegal; it was only a prostitution of
public position for private gain, a de-
fiance of sound public policy, a dis
grace to the state administration. and
so regarded by the senate committee
which investigated and reported the
facts.
Governor Cutler apparently believes
that it was proper for Mr.. Lynch to ig-
more these facts, and that Mr. Cand-
lands conduct of his duties on the
board was so exemplary, so highly
honorable and creditable as to Justify
another term of service. So far the
senate has refused to confirm these an
pointments; and its refusal will meet
the approval of every right-minded
citizen familiar with the record. The
State Land board is guardian of great
public interests; it is custodian of large
funds derived from the sale of public
lands; it should be composed of men
who are satisfied with doing their duty
for the salary paid without looking
for personal gain through their connec-
ton with the board. The state cannot
afford to have on this board men whose
notions of their trusteeship are so hazv
or inaccurate as to confuse personal in
terest and public duty to their own
advantage.

cHEETs AND THE COUNCIL.

Councilman Wells probably repre-
sents a fair part of public sentiment
/ in his motion TO remove Chief Sheets
from office because he has been held
/ for trial on a charge of criminal con-
/ spiracy in connection with the Nc
! Whirter robbery. but the justice of
such an action is doubtful pending the
outcome of the final trial.
As its readers know, The Herald has
thought from the date of his appoint
ment. that Sheets ought not 10 be
trusted with the office given him.
When the McWhirter case first came
before the public. The Herald said that
Sheets was either too innocent to be
guardian of the city from criminals, or
else his connection with the case was
such as to warrant his removal. There
was no escape from one of these two
conclusions, and this paper has had no
reason to change its opinion on that
point.
Since that time, the graver charge OF
conspiracy has been made against
Sheets, and Judge Whitaker. after
hearing the evidence, found the facts
such as TO warrant holding the chief
for trial in the criminal court. Pro-
priety, if not expediency, ought TO have
pointed TO Sheets temporary retirement
from office until he could be tried; and
Mayor Thompson owed ii to his ad-
ministration and the people of Salt
Lake to take such action. 1t would
not necessarily imply belief in
Sheets guilt or innocence, and
the circumstances demanded that
the police department be placed,
for the time being. in hands
that had not been tainted by the find
ings of the committing court
However, the mayor and his support
ers in the council prefer to array
on the side of Sheets. and TO
hold him in office despite the grave
onUs of a court finding to the effect
that there Is probable cause for the
charge against him. If the 'Ameri-
can administration can stand the
brnnt of such position, if it is willing
to defy the proprieties to that extent
it may expect to suffer the opprobrium
that naturally follows. Summary dis
missal would be unfair at this juno
ture, but suspension from office ought
to have been the sequel to the COM
order unless the administra-
ton wishes to declare that it cares
for the facts in the case, nor
for the general opinion that the police
department ought to be in charge of
some one else than Sheets until a YER
dict is rendered in his case
