Tha principal objection is that property already pays state, county, city and school district taxes, besidee, in many casta, being Uxed to pay railroad, court hause, water works-bridg- e and school bonds. Another plan might have been to raise the revenue largely from excise and stamp dutiea, aa ia dona in England. But this country has never favored such a system of revenue.

In subsequent articles on this question the difference between the two parties, as shown by th&r platforms and party positions in congress, will be mentioned. The first Uriff act was signed by President Washington July 4, 1789. Alexander Hamilton was the author of the measure. The first protective tariff measure was approved April 27, 1816, and was called the Lowndes-Calhoubill. It ia not widely known, but such is the fact, that the first protective Uriff whs a democratic measure. The United States haa never been without a tariff leading Sundays ssuean editorial which argues that the proposed division and dissolution of the Liberal party is unwise and inimical to the best interests of the territory. gov-erme- Eaxtf.rh exchanges are watching the somewhat noted legislatureof Nebraska, and their commenU on ita labors so far are not commendatory.

Editor Commercial: As an humble member of the living Liberal party of UUh, I desire to express my appreciation of the brave stand taken by you in Sunday's paper, which to my way of thinking, very clearly demonstrates the ultimate outcome of the new political movement in Utah. If Liberals would only pause for a moment and think seriously of the position they ate going to find themselves in when the time comes for nominating and electing county officers in Weber county, I do not think there would be such a mad rush to get into the trap. No sane man can for a moment deny that when it comes to the matter of making nominations both republicans and democrats will naturally feel liberally inclined toward those who have heretofore affiliated with the People's party, hoping thereby to strengthen their respective organizations. Now Mr. Editor, right there is where the danger comes in. Each party must bid for this new element as you have predicted, and to say they will not do it is talking wind. It means the turning of Weber county over to the People's party and boots the it breeches, know leaders of that party enough to grasp the situation and make political alfalfa while the sun Bhinee. Have you ever heard it charged that the meu who manipulate the votes of the People's party were lunatics? I guesa they will strike a fair average with the common run of politicians, and when the lines are once more in their grasp, I guess it will keep the rest of us pretty busy swinging onto the Truly ""politics make strange and a frog is a fuany fish in the land of the Saints.
