The Tribune is laboring very hard tn prove that the vott) in tho last election resulted from some kind of a "deal" to j .vliich tiifi mormon church was a party. Jt fully realizes that tho returns and in. ;u over tho territory (demonstrate that tho division is in earnest. It. understands also that peo-- I plo here in Halt Like nm quietly con-- j sidoring tho accumulating evidence, i and that many of those who have operated with tiie liberals nro earnestly aslci rs themselves if it is not time for '.hem to take a hind in this movomeut. It iumws that sincere men are not to penult themselves to lie ' made parties to Rti effort to turn a p;ood movement backward after they nh-il- have .ssl'isllcd them-selves o? its merit. Therefore it tills its columns with sophistry and assump-tio-to Mind i tx rentiers to the trno con-ditions respecting the void and to pre-vent them from coming to a conclusion adverse to its view. Tiik Times would not ask any man to be in a hurry about making up his tnind about the matter; it is perfectly willing to rest the rate upon the good judgment of tiitt age citizen, but it does want to caution its readers against being led away from the correct lilies of thought and investi-gation by thu appeals of tho Tribnir1. lu connection w ith the election in Lo-Ra-and the appearance of Mr. Thatcher on the stump the Tribune very coolly Announces fuel that: "Tho thrulh was, that if that address hail not been made and the whole sentiment of the town had changed Monday and the majority had been Riven, it would hava linen so palpable a job, so clear a case of church dicta-tion, that there could have been no ex-cuse framed for it." It is easv to in-dulge in surmises, nnd that is all that the. Tribune's statement amounts to. Tub Timks hm before staled the facts and tho pUiu inferences connected with that matter. Musks Tiiati uku is a democrat, and he took the stump at the last moment because he feared that his town would go re-publican. 'J'iik Timks draws tho in-ference that he did so because that was the ouiy course open to him. The Trihnui: indulges the assumption that he made the speech as a blind. It could have met any other condition in the same way. If the speech had not been made and the town had gono democratic it would no doubt have an-nounced an a firt that Mr. TiiArt iikh had given orders in private to that end. If tho election had gone republican, without the speech, it would have said that he had so ordered it for the pur-pose of creating the impression that even such a strong leader as he could not control the people of his own town. If the result there had been in favor of the republicans after a speech by him, it would have loudly declared that he made the apeeeh in order to emphasize an assumed iuabilily to con-trol tho voters. 'The Trilniw might just s well treat these matters in a commen sense xvay or let them alone, for the people are going to judge them in the light of reason. They will not accept every assumption that the Trib-une may make. Our contemporary has a great deal to say about the overwhelming success of the domnerats, claiming that it was in accordance xvith church orders, in harmony with a "deal" made by the church. It alludes particularly to tho case of A. II. I.l'Nu, a mormon apostle, who was beaten by Bishop (iltlCAVES, a democrat. Now, the Tribune charged during tho progress of tho cam-paign that the republicans were a party to this alleged "deal." If so, would it not have served tho alleged conspirators' purpose frr better to have elected some of these prominent tnor-- I nion republicans? If tho mormon church were engineering the election, would it not have, for appearance's Make, "ordered" tho election of such a man as LfNH? If the election was a "mormon staljhood" scheme, would not Li nk or It'iorir have been as reli-able as his democratic opponent? Come now; answer theso questions. Answer them honestly. Don't hide be- - hind convenient assumption to cast a shadow on the truth. Neither is it worth while to sneer at The Timks be-cause it asks them, for a sneer only s him who indulges in it. The people are asking tueso ipiestions. ( u the streets and in their business houses they are asking themselves, "( an it bo possible that tho mormon church that thoroughly organized nud disciplined body 'ordered' results of this kind? Can it bo possible that it 'ordered' the election of every democratic candidate under such circumstances!1" Let tho Tribune, make, answer. OAnd permit us to remind our con-temporary that this territory was sup-posed, livo months ago, to be almost solidly democratic; that all the country papers were democratic in tendency, and that tho people were democratic in an indefinite xvay, by a sort of common consent without having studied the real issues involved. This iVt a fuel, and it being a fact it explains xvhy A. H. Lund was defeated. It was tho democratic sentiment of the pcoplo (misguided and capable of being changed, it is true, that elected Apostle Li nk's opponent, that elected Bishop Ci.ti.kk's opponent aud that elected Bishop Booth's oppo-nent. This is tho explanation of the democratie solidity in the legislature. This is the condition that summons republicans to renewed oxertion in the political field. This is the sign that the mormon church is not dictating to its people how they shail act under this political division. number of government employes in-creased, the evils of the Jacksonian plan became more and more apparent. In the first place the injustice of train-ing men in a particular line of govern-ment work only to have them turned out with some change of political control beau to impress itself on the publio mind. Thn it was made clear that this was not for the best interests of the service, it being evident that the government should apply tho i imo rule to its work that is followed by private concerns. Added to this waH the manifest danger of making a political machine of the army of oftice holders. Under the system it w as held that every employe from porter in a custom house to clerk in a department should go out with a political change, and every one was called upon to le ole himsf to work for tho party under which he secured employment. Thoso manifest evils gave riso to the agitation in favor of civil service too object of the reformers being to remove the service frotn the influen-ces of politics, making all minor em-ployes secure in their positions so long as they should till them acceptably to the best Interests of the publie and eliminating lliem as a factor in the political machinery of the country. The general ideas of the reformers commended themselves to the con-science of tho nation, and the result was that the I'k.nhi.kton' bill, the groundwork of the present law, was passed, i'or this tho democracy dropped Pknm.ktov and retired him to private life, but tho law stood and has since been improved upon in many respects until we have a pretty fair system gov-erning appointments and advancements in all branches of the service. That it needs improvement is generally admit-ted, ami it is not to be donbtod that such Improvement will eventually be secured. As wo have said, neithor party is wholly in favor of or opposed to the principle, ("hanging administrations have enforced the law with varying de-grees of faithfulness, and through each there has been rebel-lion against it on luo part of intlividval officials. While a democrat fathered the law, the senti-ment of his party was such as to make the fact fatal to him; and the greatest influence in its favor has always come from republican sources. It has been one of the favorite hobbies of the mug-wump press, and constituted oue of the causes leading that press into the sup-port of C'i.i. i:i.ani in lss-l- When I'l.KVKl.ASD eaimi into ollice he was re-garded as a civil service reforner, and he was. perhaps, as faithful to the cause as was possible under the circum-stances, lie, however, made the mis-take of applying it to some great offi-ces, like tho New York postumstership, while old methods prevailed to some extent in the lower branches of the ser-- I vice. Tho machinery of his party was in the hands of Senator (louMAK, an unscrupulous spoilsman, and in many respects his record on tho subject was badly distigured. Still be made a very linn stand, aud much of the opposition anil lukowarnitie,-- 1 that was manifested against him in Ihhh grew nut of tho disappointment of the ullta spoils class. The present administration has been an improvement over that which preceded it, though it lias not been free from some of the same bitter spirit. General Ci.akkshx, while, ho was in the postotliee department, got the title of "headsman"' because of tho great num-ber of tha lower class postmasters whom ho removed. It is an open ques-tion whether the principle upon which the reform is based should of necessity be applied to the village postermaster-ships- . The little ollices are coveted by adherents of the successful party, but it makes very little t'lffereneo, so far as the political machinery is concerned, who holds them, w hile tho number of cases in which incumbents are depen-dent upon their government incomes is small. But, on the whole, the IIai.'KIson administration's record has been very good. This may havo resulted from greater loyalty to the basic principle, or it may have aiL-e- n from the mora favorable conditions brought about by the previous operation of the law itself. lu anv event we may rest sati.slicd that the law has cuiiio to stay in spite of the denunciations of bitter partisans. It will be improved upon from time to time, and all the ends which it is de-sirable should bo reached will eventual-ly be covered. This is a conclusion that the mnjority of Americans will be glad to arrive at. for with the further enlargement that must occur in tho number of government employes, the demand that the service in all its minor branches shall be divorced from poli-tics, is founded upon a true conception of the best interests of tiie people in their relations to the government. CIVIL HKKVICK KUKOUW. The subject of civil service reform is ouo that has not yet been disposed of, aud it is not likely that it will bo elimi-nated from political calculations for a long time to come. Neither party is a unit iu its favor and neither can openly dofy the strong sentiment by which it is supported. In both parties there are men who scolt at it; while the natural press of partisans is such that no ad-ministration has been able to apply the principle involved in anything like a thorough manner. But the cause sur-vives all the hard knocks that it exper-iences and commands the adhesion of much of the best thought of the country. The ""spoils" system, which it is a'ltied to break up, w as inaugurated by tud democrats aud held undisputed sway for a grtat lu&uy years As tho large enough to justify a start now in many lines, and in a very few years th.s ought to be the busiest manufacturing center west of the Mississippi river. For instance, there is room here for another shoe factory. Wo ought to baye one or more woolen mills right here in Salt Lake. There should bo a glove factory here, and a knitting null should bo in full Mast in this city. Then the linen industry ought to bo investigated with a view of establishing it here. The chances are that our more elevated valleys will grow better 11 ax than can be produced else in the world. If they can. we should have a factory or factories hero to utilize the libre. There is a held here for a soap factDry. There is a field for iron furnaces with all kinds of iron and steel works. Many more lines of manufacturing might be mentioned, but thoso given will sullies to illustrate tho wide scope of the opportunities of this city. We ncid smelters here, and there is no reason why we should not got them. Just at this time the Omaha & firaut company are talking of moving their Omaha to Denver. They have had some trouble with their men in Omaha and are not satisfied with the manner in which they have been treat-ed by the authorities. In addition they set up the fact that Omaha is far re-moved from the mining districts aud that it is cheaper to transport the bul-lion than to haul the ore all the way to the Missouri river. In this condition of affairs our people ought to get into communication with them to Induce them to locate here. To be sore, they already have works in Denver, but much of the ore that they use comes from this region and the tpuestion of distance which gives Denver an advan-tage over Omaha would operate in fav-or of Salt Lake. They contemplate the erection of a copper plant. This was designed for Omaha but will come to Denver if the move be made. Now, there is a far better field here for a cop-per plant than at any point in Colo-rado. These facts suggest that Salt Lake should be paying tome attention to that company. While they are moving they might as well come here, and it could be demonstrated to them that it would be to their advantage for them to do so. It would certainly be of the greatest advantage to Salt Lake to get them, and the possibility is worth devoting much time to aud spending some mon-ey on. The great difficulty here is that our people do not fully realize the advan-tages of their own city. If they did, they would be organizing to secure a great number of establishments that are needed. We have a community of able business men but they do not get that "rustlo" on them that is needed to push a city to the front. Many causes have operated to retard development and discourage men who are naturally enterprising. The city has been dis-criminated against in a certain sense, but all that can be overcome. It may, it will require a great effort to start the ball rolling, but tho effort demanded is not beyond the powers of our people. M A N I 1 ' A C T I K I N II !! N T I: It I ' It 8 K. Manufactures aro steauy creators of wealth, ceaseless contributors to the business of a city. ; Colorado Sun. Truer words were never written. Manufacturing establishments are the life of a city. A place may be so sit-uated that it can attain large growth through tolls upon trade floxving through its gates. Cities subsist in many cases upon the putronagu of sur-rounding districts, but as a rulu our inland centers of population are highly ' prosperous only as they secure large industrial enterprises which employ great numbers of men. 'The employes spend their earnings in the place in which they live. The money paid to them enlivens business and creates new avenues of business on every hand. Tho products of their toil go out into the surrounding country drawing money from every quarter in return. This trade brings business of other kinds xvith it ami prosperity f'rjxvs in upon thu place from xviiicii it e.nana'os. The laws governing this subject should enlist the earnest attention of the people of Salt Li':e. We have op-portunities here for the successful es-tablishment of many manufacturing en-terprises. The trade of an empire is within call. This city is the natural center of a country that nlready has a large population aud that is destined soon to be the home of olie. two or three millions of people. There is no reason why we should not have facto-ries located here to gup. ply them with all the staple goods The business is CLOSING Ur MAILS, A t ("nit f ukn .It 1". .. '! V '.- -!!

They should dismiss prejudice and go at the subject "hammer and tongs" to pound out the truth. Ani now we are told that the g feature of Lincoln's career is a moth. A correspondent writing from the place where ho lived as a boy in Indiana declares that there were no vails used there in those days. Thkke is a movement among the Eng-lish Methodists to abolish tho minister-ial itinerancy system. The plan will not be given up without a great agita-tion and we may look for an interestiug discussion in connection with the prop-osition. Charleston is reported to have ex-perienced a slight earthquake shock. The papers of the city say nothing about it. This is very natural, but Ktill the general public would like to know what the extent of the distur-bance was. It transpires that Mr. Paknkll's marriage to Mrs. O'Shf.a was the straw that broke the allegiance of many of his supporters. They had refused to believe Captain O'Suea's testimony but the marriage left them without any ground upon which to standout against it. SPIRIT OF THE PRESS. Home-Ma- Tin Plate. Omaha Ben. Tho Bee has received, through the courtesy of Mr. J. II. Stokes, a sheet of American Tooling tin manufactured by the N. & U. Taylor company of Phila-delphia, and we venture to say that no better tin for the purpose is made any-where. A short time ago wo quoted from the Philadelphia Jt.eurrf, which is o.cfillont democratic authority, some facts regarding this company and its Philadelphia plant, and it is now learned that the company is turning out a monthly average of 10(10 boxes of rocling tin, J'sx-'- O inches, each box con-taining 112 sheets. It may bo interest itpj to state that tho home of the Messrs. Taylor is nearly a century oid, that for nearly half a century it has been importing tin plates for tho open market, and that its business aiiiOtint.s to moio than a million dol-lars annually. The house began the making of tin plate in this country as an. experiment, aud the result thus far has been so satisfactory 1 hat it is noxv enlarging its plant to two or three times tho present capacity. Preparing the Democratic Mind, New York Mail and Kxpress. The inteution of tiie democrats who are represented by Mr. Watterson to "turn regretfully to some other nonii neo, but scarcely Hill," is very neatly and delicately expressed, but it is al-ready tixed, and Mr. Watterson is edu-cating and preparing the democrat!? leaders for tho elimination of both Cleveland and Hill from the list of pos-sible democratic candidates for the presidency. His logic is based on un-deniable facts. His methods of expos-ing tho inevitable results of the conflict" in the democratic party in this state are as adroit as they are ell'ective. Knowledge An ...(tribute of God. San Francisco Aigonaut. Knowledge is an attribute of God, and to gather aud disseminate know-lodg- e is to do the xvork of God. Igno-rance, or the absence of knowledge, is a disease, horrible and infectious, of which ho who platits a library clears tho atmosphere for generations to come.
