DoLL1vER ON THE RAMPAGE.

Senator Dollivcr OF Iowa has
finished his great speech" on the
tariff. And Mt the last lie became in.
volvcd in controversy of fact with
| Senator Aldrich, in which Dollver
was worstcd, of course; for Aldrich
knows more about the tariff in a
minute than Deliycr ever knew in his
life, or can ever learn, He also
became involved in a dispute of
vcraciiy with Senator Adrich; and
here again Dollivcr must suffer
Dolliver took occasion in ms speech
TO assail The industries Of this region,
more fcrccly by far than even the
Democrats have done, whose political
principles might be pleaded for attacks
on lead. wool, and hides. But Dollivcr
can make no such plea, for he is a Re
publican, and protection to lead wool,
and hides is good Republican doctrine,
What, then, is the matter with Dol
liver? He seems 10 hate all this
Western country. This was first
made manifest in his course with re.
spcct TO Smoot. When Dollvcr s
term was about TO expire, he joined
with the majority of the Senate
Committee on Privileges aud Elections
which was hearing Smoot S case, in re-
porting against Smoot. He did not
dare TO go before the Legislature of
Iowa as supporter of Smoot. But
after he had been reelected, and could
not be intcrfered with for six years,
he faced about, and with glib false
hoods and imaginary facts endcavorcd
TO Justify his betrayal of his former
position, and came to Smoot IS support
under entirely false prctcnscs That
shows at once his double dealing
character, and his dislike of the West,
i'll helping TO fasten upon Utah
representative or missionary of the
polygamous priesthood in the United
States Senate. 1t was mistake Of
character, proving the man TO be pre-.
cIsely what a manly man is not.
And now Dollivcr vents his spleen
again on the West, and wants to do
what he can TO tear down or destroy
our leading industries; and this in de-
iiance of the protective principles
of the party to which he belongs.
And he has the audacity to threaten
n Republican Senate with party defeat
if 1T does not yield to his unworthy
and treacherous clamor. 1t should mark
the end of Doliver as n Senator from

WHY THE DUTCH REJOICE.

Many people in this country. no
doubt, were astonished AT the frantic
JOY with which the people Of Holland
received the news of the birth of a
daughter TO Queen Wilhelmina an heir
TO the Dutch throne. The Joy cx-
pressed was a reaction against ,he fear
of a failure of such heir. in which case
the future of Holland would have been
in peril. For, as long as there is dl.
rect heir to the throne there is little
likelihood Of the integrity of the king
dom being menaced.
But in case of the failure of such
heir, the Dutch people would be in dan
ger Of absorption by Germany; and this
is what they dread most of all. And
it is what the ruling house OF the Ger.
man empire desires most of all. For,
the absorption OF Holland would give
to Germany the broad sea access which
the Kaiser so much covets, and would
furnish rendezvous for a German
fleet to threaten England at short
range. 1t would also give to Ger
many colonial system large and profit
able in the oriental seas, Il prize worth
much trouble to seize, and that would
add brilliant renown to the Kaiser who
might execute this great stroke.
And so because the Hollanders want
10 escape the threatened absorption by
Germany, and are fercely desirous of
maintaining their own separate nation
ality and kingdom, ard Of perpetuating
their splendid traditions. of liberty and
heroic deeds to maintain it, they re-
ioicc that the heir has come which as
sures the continuation Of their nation
ality and therefore of their peace of
mind.

SUGAR TRUST THIEVERIES.

The great robbery perpetratcd by the
American sugar trust is its robbery of
the American people through its greed
manipulated and monopoly y-coutrolled
price Of sugar. But il does not stop
at that, It was recently caught de.
frauding the National customs revenue
by means of doctoredn scales. and
was forced 10 pay into the u. S. Treas.
ury something over two million dollars
which it was known to have fraudulent.
ly withheld from that treasury through
manipulated weighing.
But it gets down even to smaller
and meaner things than that The new.
est charge is that this robbing sugar
trust has swindcd the city of New
York out of half million dollars by
stealing water from the mains Water
pipes not mctered were some time ago
found leading from the city's mains
into one OF the trust refincrics One
of these was ten-inch pipe, which
under the usual pressure would deliver
an enormous quantity Of stolen water
And there seems TO be no doubt Of the
stealing, for the trust has been caught
and admits its theft by offering to
pay $4,000 for the water it has stolen
The city however, insists on the pay
ment of $250000. Iuasmuch as the
company, on being caught by the Ma
tional Government at its stealing in
weights, offered at first to pay half
the Government S claim and finally
had to pay in full, it is likely that the
city can, by standing pat, compel the
trust to pay it also in full
And now, what effect will this have
on us here? Will the trust, having to
pay such severe "losses," and being
in control OF prices OF beet sugar made
IN our Utah factories, raise the price

FREIGHT RATE CASE GETTING on.

Tho welcome and not unexpected
news comes from Washington that the
charges Of oppressive railroad to Utah

would of course, have been immensely
more satisfactory if Assistant Attorney

ductcd this hearing personally, and it
is TO be hoped that he may come later

question is raised rs to this by the
dispatch which speaks of referring the
matter TO the Interstate Commerce Com
mission. This, however, may only mean
that member of that commission is to
be present here al the investigation, as
heretofore rcportcd,
The reason for hoping that the Inter
state Commerce Commission will not be
given charge OF the case is that the
conclusions and directions of that body
will not be final; the courts will still
be appealed TO, as has been done by the
railroads Interested, in their further
contest Of the commission s orders. as in
the Spokane case. That means long
delay; first, it takes the Interstate
Commerce Commission long time to
hear and determine the case; and in
the appeal from the commission s de.
termination 1T will take the courts even
longer TO hear the case all over again
and reach decision on it. The idea
in our case was TO avoid the expense
and delay of the first. hearing by the
commission, and bring on at onco the
final and conclusive determination in
The courts. 1t is still our hope that
this will be done, And it bchooves Salt
Lake and the other cities 10 make out
their case as strong as possible, and
keep their eyes peeled.
But if, as the reading of later dis.
patches indicates. the matter has been
formally referred TO the Interstate
Commerce Commission, then Booth is
unless that commission for.
maliy calls upon him for help, and there
is thus some compensation for the added
delay which first hearing by the In
terstate Commerce Commission would
impose. And we start the hearing with
the prestige Of special order from the
President, and a sensational publicity
that has never been equaled in any case
