NO CHANCE FOR FREE SILVER. Senator Jones of Arkansas informs V the country through the Associated f Press that the next congress will pass a freeoinage bill. Let us see. The f. Washington correspondent of the New York Commercial Bulletin has an- - alyzed the memberihip of the Fifty-thir- d congress to determine the strength of the free silver element in that body. ; The conclusion reached is that the free coinage bill would be defeated if pressed to a vote. A majority of the , house will consist of 179 members, so f that one less than that number would be sufficient to negative any proposed j. legislation. The Democrats number 227 and the Republicans 125, with four of other politics. There ure not less than 70 Democrats and 114 Republicans who oppose free coinage under existing conditions. The states of the Northeast send 49 Democratic members opposed to silver, while the West and South send 22, making a total of 71. It is probable also that the ideas of Mr. Cleveland will influence some of the weak-knee- d members of his party, and it is hard to see, in view of these conditions, how Senator Jones could arrire at his prophecy. Those who be-lieve that the West will have to push her campaign of education until the East is converted to the true faith, be-fore justice is done to silver, are doubt-less right.

The best thing that can happen to the people of this country is to let the Democrats carry out their policy of free trade, for the sooner that i3 done the sooner the Republican party will be restored to power and the sooner American inter--' ests will return to safe ground. Let tho Democrats now have the entire respon-sibility, and let the people again learn from experience, as they did forty years ago, that free trade is a boon only to foreign nations, and the fruitful source of tribulation to American labor and American capital. THE MATTER OF LEAD. The Herald indignantly denies that it is afraid of free lead. Then why does it call for a meeting of lead producers to take immediate steps to present their views to congress? If the Herald wants free lead, all it has to do is to keep quiet. The Demo-cratic party, which will have over-whelming control of the Fifty-thir- d congress, is irrevocably committed to free raw materials. The lower branch if the present congress passed a free lead bill. There is not the slightest question but what the duty on lead will speedily be removed if the lead pro-ducers of the West make no protest, and the chances are that the most vig-orous protest they could possible make would not save the duty now. In spite of these facts the Herald is demanding a lead congress. Such a congress would unquestionably pro-nounce againat free lead, because all Republicans are opposed to it and many Democrats, like R. C. Chambers in Utah and James G. Grant in Colorado, heartily agree with them. The aim and object of the Herald's lead congress is to protect lead from Democratic free trade legislation, and the Herald is in the ridiculous position of trying to prevent after election the very thing it earnestly labored to bring about before election. We hope all Republicans will let the Madam Rhine of 13 Est Third South has removed to 270 South Main. All trimmed goods sold at a bargain. BUSINESS DIRECTORY. ATTORN EY-AT- -L AW. CIiESSON S. KINNEY.

Lieuten-ant Peary's commission will expire through natural causes before he approaches his goal. Ax exchange wonders what a mild and temperate Oriental of the impassive type an Japanese gentleman or a philosopher of Samarcand would think of one of our dances of the day, when seeing it for the first time. He would probably carry away from the specta-cle, among numerous other impressions, a very decided feeling that both danseuse and spectators were crazy. It is impossible to deny that there is a kind of insanity in these eccentric dances. As they revolution-ize all notions of reserve and decorum, bo they upset the equilibrium of the brain, and give the gray matter a joggle which can hardly be beneficial. Judging from wbt we hear of new dances, more daring than any yet seen on .'.he stage here, now on their way hither, it seems as if the brains of the spectators of them mijfht almost be thrown into fermentation. EDITORIAL NOTES. Thb cyclone has no respect for tempera-ture. . Mr. Stevexsox is in great demand with Democrats. They like axemen. J It seems as if tha Kansas legislature had a Lease on hand that it will be difficult to annul. There never was so much harmony in the Democratic ranks for years. They are unan-imous for office. Labob Commissioxkr Peck says he is pleased with the result of the election, yet he cut no figure in it. Edmuxds is going to Califor-nia. Oa his way through Utah we may show him the changed conditions. Commissioner Roosevelt wants the civil service rules extended even to the police. Well, not if Tammany hall knows itself. News comes of an increase in wages of workmen in several Eastern factories. Four months from date it will be the other way. Thk school elections on the 7th of Decem-ber come at a time when the people are sur-feited with election excitement Still, there should be no abatement of interest in a mat-ter so vital. The navy department insists that Lieuten-ant Peart should resign his commission if their visions of prosperity through Democratic prosperity are but the base-less fabric of a dream they will rise again and cast such barren promises to the winds. Democracy, by fomenting the grievances and discontents of the masses have sown the winds, and ere long she will reap the whirlwind. The change just wrought really means that the people are seeking what neither of the great parties has promised or pro-vided for. They require modifications and adaptations of government which call for even a larger exercise of econ-omic and industrial legislation than has heretofore been undertaken. The peo-ple are the argonauts and they are heading the ship of state into new and unknown seas; but the Republican party, representing as it does the econ-omic and industrial trend of the Anglo-Saxo- n development, t nd the spirit and genius of American institutions, will be able soon to comprehend its duties in the light of its historic mission, and it will intelligently and wisely rise to the new duties and responsibilities im-posed upon it. , RETROSPECT AND PROSPRCT. The sudden change that has just been achieved in the political status of the nation is so thoroughly unanimous and decisive that papers and politicians are much more likely than otherwise to over-estima- te and exaggerate its sig-nificance. It is proverbial that the makers of history, the actors upon the stage of life, the participants in the pro-vidential drama, are never the best qualified to estimate the relative im-portance and significance of the parts that they have performed. Distance lends enchantment, but proximity is blinding and mystifying. We hear of "cyclones," "landslides," "ava-lanches," "revolutions." It is highly pertinent to imagine what does this change really mean? What will it mean ten years from now, a score of years? There is one grand clue to guide us in estimating the significance of this great Democratic victory. We know that no transient act of society can effect a radical change in the genius and spirit of a people. National transforma-tion i3 effected only by slow and cumu-lative processes. The grown man and the fully developed nation carries slill the outlines of their childhood. The American nation is born from the womb of Anglo-Saxo- n evolution; and whatever may be the diversions of the passing moment, we have our orbit in the plan-etary system of nations, and very soon any small variation from the historic trend will find its appropriate compen-sations, and the perturbed organism will find itself in line with its own na-tional precedents and tendencies. Even now, before the smoke of the conflict has arisen from the battle field, we find Democratic journals hedging against the behests of their free trade platform. Cleveland refuses to call a special session in order to put the economic postulates of his party into immediate operation. He seos wisely that time is necessary to engraft the new programme upon the established system. The West is beginning to wake up to the meaning of the change. Two years must elapse before we can have a practical realization of what free trade signifies with reference to western industries. When all changes are made iu our protective system that the incoming administration will ven-ture to inaugurate, what shall we have? Doubtless nothing more than the put-ting of a very few articles on the free list that the West is deeply interested in, such as wool and lead. The manu-facturers' schedules may be reduced by the veriest trifles. ' A few g articles such as sugar may be sub-jected to a small tax. The great reve-nues of the country will still have to be raised by tariffs and excises. What-ever changes are made will result in the reduction of current wages. These are about all the changes that are pos-sible or probable. But vill such meagre changes as these satisfy the great unrest of the country which has by one grand fortu-itous combination expressed itself in this cyclone of ballots? No. These re-sults are not what this blind unrest seeks and signifies. Four years more will show no surcease of disquiet. Why? Simply because the agitation of the country grows out of the exaggera-tion of tendencies which are really in-herent in our national economic devel-opment. Our institutions in their very essence call for economic and indus-trial administration, an administration in order to tha general welfare. Dem-ocracy means a non-economi- a non-industri- al administration of national affairs. Democracy receives the suf-frages of discontent because it prom-ises relief, and inveighs against those sources of power whence the people naturally expect economic welfare. , Wheu the people begin to realize that A FOOD INSPECTOR. The city council has legislated into being a food inspector at a monthly f alary of $100. Every well regulated municipal household has a food in-spector, and Salt Lake cannot well af-ford to be without one. Moreover, if tho officer appointed be competent, he will earn his salary, and more. At the same time it cannot be too strongly or too often urged that every man is his best food inspector, and no offioial supervision can be so efficient as that of the careful housewife who knows her business. If we were to buy our food articles only of reliable dealers, the unreliable ones would soon be compelled to be-come honest or emigrate. In the meantime let A. S. Kendall, food inspector, look sharply after adul-terations of all kind. It will keep him quite busy. Another enterprise of much need and im-portance has been put in operation in Salt Lake. Messrs. Charles B. Gourlay & Co., formerly known in business circles, have engaged in the manufacture of shirts of every description, including: the most super, ior article of dress shirt and the most ser-viceable and comfortable woolens, pajamas, night shirts and negligee. Many years' ex-perience and a proper appreciation of the demands of a superior trade will enable Messrs. Gourlay & Co. to successfully cater to a desirable class of patronage. The particular features or virtues claimed by the gentlemen for their shirts are perfect fit and the excellency of material used in the garments. The general offices are in the McCornick building, rooms 303 and 305. Read their advertisement in this issue of The Times. DR. MILLER'S POSITION. Whenever it is possible for the Tribune to say a mean thing about Dr. Geokge L. Miller, it is sure to say it. As lief would a grasshopper fly a green field as the Tribune the chance to oast a fling at Dr. Millek. There is some truth in the assertiou of the Mormon-baitin- g organ that Dr. Miller "came here and labored hard with the chiefs." That was some years ago when Taylor was president of the S church and the particular labor he came here to perform was to convince the church authorities that unless they y abolished polygamy the consequences would be just what they proved to be, h even to the confiscation of the church ty property. At a meeting arranged by Delegate s Caine Dr. Miller plainly explained 't the situation to President Taylor. The latter listened attentively, and at the close asked for two days' time within which to consider the matter and give an answer. Dr. Miller returned east j" fully convinced that the answer would n be a satisfactory one, somewhat in the nature of the late manifesto of Presi- - . dent Woodruff. To his amazement and disappointment it was the other ' way. Mr. Taylor insisted that polyg-- amy was a heaveuly institution and could not be abolished by him. The jr church was evidently not ready for the - change at that time. - Conditions have changed since then, and they have changed on the line of Dr. Miller's proposition. Every child t? in Utah knows how much bettor it t would have been for the people had the change occurred then. r- - But what would have become of the P Tribune if it had lost the only issue f upon which it has striven to run the politics of Utah? ... f r .. . t A ROVfNC JUDCE. Joe Clakkson was one of tha four district judges whose headquarters are ia Omaha, Neb. He belonged to one of the first families, being a nephew of the first Episcopal bishop of the state, and likewise a relative by marriage of Banker Kountze. An exemplary citi-zen, husband, father and Christian, a good lawyer and still a young man, he eemed to have the world before him. One day last July Judge Clakkson went away from home for a fishing and boating vacation on a small lake across the Iowa line, and when he failed to return onschcdule time a search expe-dition set out after him. The expedi-tion found his clothes-o- n a tree, but not the judge. The lake was drained but" the corpse was not in it. Just the earns the people of Omaha mourned the death of Clakkson and the bar association met and pronounced several touching eulegies over him. Judge Woloworth and Henry were among the eulogists. Three months elapsed since then and Judge Clarkson is discovered. He is said to be working in a lumber yard as a day laborer, though he is otherwise sane, and the gossips have it that there-by hangs a tale which will shake the so-cial foundations of Omaha. We den't know as to that, but we do know it will shake the faith of the Omaha bar in premature eulogies precipitated by the discovery of a man's clothes without tha owner of them. |
