NEW YORK CITY NOMINEES

There would appear to be no reason
to doubt the substantial unanimity of
the opposition to Tammany in New
York City through the fusion that has
resulted in the nomination of the Hon.
John Purroy Mitchell for Mayor. Mr..
Mitchell IS Democrat, but not a Tam
many man. 1t is intimated from Wash.
ington that the administration support
will be extended to him Mr.. Mitchell
was named by President Wilson as Col
lector Of the Port of New York. but it
was understood that in case he decided
20 stand as q candidate for Mayor, he
was at liberty to do so and still hold
the Conectorship. until or unless ho was
elected Mayor.
The fusion committee which presents
Mr.. Mitchell's name, also presents that

man. The other nominations made are
also OF high order.
Mr.. Whitman was a close candidate,
running second TO Mr.. Mitchell for the
nomination for mayor and defeated by
very small margin. Il is likely that
be will yield his aspirations TO be
mayor, and will accept the renomira-
tion for district attorney This will
make the fusion harmonious and com

ment would have appealed. moro forcibly
to the public if it had been delivered
prior to the impeachment of Robert W..
Archibald of the u. s.. Commerce Court
The rapidity, the certainty, and the
success which attended the procedure
against Judge Archibald nullifies at ono
good and well aimed blow, the whole
basis upon which Representative Hull
propo ) this amendment. The pro
eeedings against Judge Archibald were
as speedy as any procedure ought to
be in a case involving SO grave ques'
tion as the removal OF a Federal judge.
1t is altogether likely that the process
in his case was as speedy, as direct, and
as little involved in technicelity, as
a.y procedure could possibly be under
the procedure proposed by Representa-
tive Hull This showing, therefore,
makes his proposed amendment, abso-
lutely unnecessary, and proves that pro.
cedure by impeachment meets every re-
quirement in speedy and drastic dealing
with Federal Judges.

with any distinguished individual, and
which any great man would have no
doubt disdained to have been con-
nccted with, just as any great noble Oh
the Middle Ages would have disdained
to go into field work OF any kind.
The picture on the brick evidently rep
resents n rural scene with which the
artist who drew it was familiar, and
which was well known to the farming
communities of Chaldea, and there
were doubtless thousands OF sueh
bricks. How old this brick is one can
not say, but it is probably well back
toward tho ancient days, and the name
of tho individual who invented that
seeder had been lost in the obscurity
Of the ages by the time this picture
was made. But the idea OF connecting
Abraham with field ploughing in
Babylon is something that is 80 absurd
that one cannot refrain from compar'
ing il with the controversy which
Bishop Spalding had with certain In
diyiduals here who were undertaking
to maintain theory connecting Abra-
ham with an Egyptian mummy wrap,
which is as absurd as this which un-
dertakes to represent Abraham as
ploughing on the Babylonian plains.

KEEN AFTER THE JUDGES.

Representative Cordell Hull Of Tea
nessee appears TO be disseminated with
the seeming difficulty OF removing Fed
eral judges from their positions by i'm
peachment, and so be has introduced IN
the House OF Representatives propo-
sitior to amend the constitution OF the
United States, so as TO allow OF the re-
moval Of Federal judge Of any in
ferior court OF the United States from
office by two-thirds vote of both
houses Of Congress.
The reason for this IS explained by
NJ. Hull 70 be because "the ancient
procedure Of impeachment which has
come down 10 Us from another century
is so prolix. involved, and cumbersome
as to render il most exacting and diff

ABRAHAM AS PLoUGHMAN.

The ancient tendency to affix with
out reason, the names Of prominen
men to pictorial scenes represented up
the names Of historic persons to
pictures Of various kinds, or to writ
ings, continues up to this day. We
note as an instance, the receipt by the
University Of Pennsylvania Of a Baby
lonian brick, said to be Of unusual in
terest on account of pictured stamp
thereon, which shows man ploughing
with oxen and aided by two helpers.
The plough IS represented as Of the
old forked~stick style, but has an at
tachment that consists of a hopper
into which the grain is fed and
through which the seed was carried to
the ground and covered by the har.
row. One man drove, one held the
plough and the other attended to the
seeding and watched the effectiveness
of the narrowing.
The particular wonder in this process
is that 1t was combination plough,
seeder and harrow, which shows that
the inventive ingenuity of the ancient
Babylonian was by no means a negli-
gible quantity. 1t was a demonstra.
tion of the practical ingenuity OF the
ancients, something similar 20 that
which we mentioned some days ago IN
noting the header harvester which was
used by the ancient Gauls. That was
driven in front OF oxen who were
hitched TO the frame on wheels, and
movable knives, substantially on the
same principle as the modern header,
took off the heads of the grain, leav-
ing the straw standing useless on the
ground.
There Is no great parsonage named
on the picture or as attaching TO
the use OF this plough, seeder,
and harrow represented on the Baby
lonian brick which the University OF
Pennsylvania has obtained. But there
were not lacking those who immedi-
ately attached the name o. Abraham
70 the picture and held that IL was
Abraham who was holding the plough.
The explanation does not undertake 70

operation, but it might as we'll The

BUSINESS AND TRADE.

The scasonable lethargy Of the sum-
mer is in evidence in business in this
city and throughout the State, and yet
there is ample evidence OF business vi
tality, push, and energy on all sides.
1t is reported by every observant bust
ness man who goes either East OF West
that on his return to Salt Lake City he
finds here q keener interest in business,
livelier commercial atmosphere than
elsewhere, and it is certainly true that
the progress in this city is so conspic-
uous that every one interested may be
congratulated thereon.
General business conditions are e1-
cellent, the merchants reporting good
sales, and they also continue to report
that an unusual percentage Of their
sales are for cash.
Building operations in this city are
proceeding steadily, and at rate that
will make an excellent showing at the
end Of the season. Construction Is go
ing on upon the Capitol building, upon
the Administration building Of the Uni
versity, upon the east sido high school; ;
business houses are being constructed,
and there is an unusual activity in
building and remodeling dwellings.
The realty situation in this city is
always on a good, firm basis. The ad-
vantages of owning Salt Lake realty are
universally recognized, and prices are
inviting to investors.
The expected visit Of President Bush

it is hoped, have important results. The
roads under President Bush's control
are, it is reported, to be unified, and
thus their operations simplified. 1t is
understood also that the proposition to
make Salt Lake City the headquarters
of the Western lines, including the Den
yer & Rio Grande and the Western Pa
ciflc, wall be urged upon the officials
during their visit here.

The general commercial agencies
throughout the country report that
business conditions are encouraging,
with marked growth in confidence. The
summer lethargy is upon business gen
orally, but the daily needs Of popu-
lation approaching 1o0,0o0,o00 cause
immense activities in supplies and
transportation,
The action of the Secretary OF the
Treasury in announcing extensive de-
posits of Federal funds in the banks of
the South and West has stimulating
influence upon the local conditions IN
those sections.
The winter wheat harvest is over,
and in the earliest maturing fields the
spring wheat harvest has begun. The
wheat yield it is expected will amount
to well over 70o,000,000 bushels this
year. Conflicting reports come as to
corn, and the hot, dry weather is said
to have injured that crop to such an
extent that it will give the spectators

Wall Street shows conflicting condi-
tions. There is considerable pressure
upon stocks for their depreciation, On
the other hand, tho legitimate basis Of
the market Is firm, and not much more
can be done by way Of pounding down
prices. The supply Of money is great,
but there is disposition towards con-
servation in extending loans This
doubtless Is caused in considerable de-
gree by the demand for gold that comes
from Europe. Franco seems to be In
the New York market all the time bid

The Balkan situation will call for q
heavy sums Of money very soon by way

gold, and it Is fortunate that we have

the customer is willing and able to pay

On the whole, the country is in a fair
business and financial situation, with
not much apparent apprehension now
remaining in business circles OF troubles
to follow on the passage Of the Demo
cratic tariff bill.

FAVoRING oFFICIALDonr.

The constitutional amendment which
allows Congress to tax incomes "from
whatever source derived - clearly did
not contemplate tho creation Of spe-
cially favored class of officials that
would be exempt from the payment Of
such income tax. Yet the managers
of the administration tariff bill (Which
includes the imposition Of the income
revenue tax are proposing to exempt
from tho payment Of income tax the
President of the United States and the
Justices of the U. S. Supreme Court.
The basis upon which this is proposed
is that since the Federal constitution
provides that the compensation Of these
officers shall not be increased OF dimin~
ished during their terms OF Office, and
since the imposition Of this tax would
be an indirect decrease Of the salaries
Of these officers, therefore it would be
unconstitutional to impose this tax
against them. The President Of the
United States has definite and speci-
fed term, and yet the salary Of the
President has been heretofore increased
from time to time during mis- incum,
bency. The Judges OF the Supreme
Court of the United States have no
specified term, but are appointed for
life. And yet their salaries have been
increased from time to time, as was
Just and proper. The constitutional in
hibition against either increasing or
decreasing the salaries Of incumbents
Of these Offices has never been regarded
as to them heretofore, and so far as
the Justices Of tho Supreme Court are
concerned, it could not be regarded at
any time, since there is no specified
term Of office for them. So that the
constitutional provision, thus strictly
applied, would prevent at any and all
time any increase in the salaries Of the
Justices Of the Supreme Court. This,
however, would be an absurdity, and
it is q point that has never been re-
garded heretofore.
The further pleas that as the Presi-
dent is the head of the executive branch
Of the government, and the Justices Of
the Supreme Court are at the head Of
the judicial branch Of the government,
it would be an intrusion for the legis-
lative branch Of the government TO uns
dertake to curtail their salaries, is also
fallacy; because the increases granted
heretofore in the salaries Of the Presi-
dent and of tho Justices Of the Su-
preme Court have been made by Con-
gress, as indeed such increases would
necessarily have to be made.
SO that the plea on this ground is
quite as fallacious as the former plea
of the constitutional bar to the imposi-
ton Of such tax We do not believe
that the Justices Of the Supreme Court
would interpose any such bar against the
imposition OF this tax. as now so deli
cately suggested in their behalf in
Congress.
The amendment allowing Of the i'm
position Of this tax was very sweeping,
and evidently contemplated no such
reservations as those that are suggest
ed; and. we do not believe that the peo-
pie of tho United States would view
with any patience, or consider that
there is any propriety, in these eIemp-
tions as proposed

Murphy, it is likely that the Sulzer
Democrats Will also come to the sup
port Of Mr.. Mitchell, Thus his election
ought to be practically assured. even in
advance of election day. The defeat
OF Tanmanv in New York would GER
tainly be gratifying to all tho better
elements of the citizenship OF the
United States, and it is pleasant to
know that both the Governor of tho
State and tho President of the United
States will look with favor upon that
defiant
