COUNTY, In another part of this number will be found a reference to the prospective establishment of a Republican paper in Ncphi. That matter would not, at this time, be mentioned editorially except to allay the apprehensions of many of the Blade's friends, both Republicans and Democrats, that this paper by force of circumstances may bo. swung from its independent moorings. A couplo of weeks sinoe we stated our position as plainly as possible on the matter of independent journalism, jind ave oar reasons for being independent, and those reasons are still in force and will so continue. During two years of independent existence, there has been a spirit of per- . feet freedom, and independence from party restraints manifested by the Bladk. There has been increased in the writer a love of independent journalism to that extent that makes the very thought of partisan newspaper discussion distasteful in the extreme. - rr n. Tinrti7nn . nowsnarmr , nnri7fin t .. . is i' lionnded by party principals and party I'riA L- - interests, That means, that while the party paper is defending and advocating the interests and political faith of half of the people, it is necessarily housing the ot'her half and opposing their political principals. Whereas, a paper that is fearless and just in its in-- , dependence, watches the interests of the entire people and stands as a judge between the contending factions, and raises its voice in defence of fairness and .holds the heated combatants in check, is the only paper for all the ' .'!--- ' I'EOFLK. The mission of a conscientious independent jurual is, as much above the narrow, contracted, ordinary, lying partisan paper as Mt. Nebo is above the mud swamps of Utah lake. Yet. in the present state of social evolution, political parties and partisan newspapers! are essential , to liberty and healthful progress, just the same measles are necessary to' purge the unhealthy germs from the body of a Partisan discussion brings out , child. in bold relief the germs of truth that each party 'contains and places them Before the people. Partisan journals are," therefore, neeessary to social pro- -. gross So have wars and other baneful social factors been necessary in the past, but the world is rapidly advancing to a point beyond many of the old one-side- d, : toecessities. The ! Blade will make a confession as to its '''politics". Those that have read the editorials, and many of the clippings . that have heretofore appeared i a tfad I3LADE, (our readers will find a couple on the subject in this issue) will have observed a decided leaniog towards Socialism, Don't be startled, gentlo reader, Socialism doesn'ti mean Anarchism. It means a social advancement Klines along and within the restraiqipg ' law to of and ;order an universal brothk&hood of ; men!;; It means that ultimate condition 61 sbciety.where there - will be no ior; ;; where each Btrugglipg son and -- daughter' "Jcif - God shall enjoy an equal proportion o His rauniiicent blessings as treely, and tully as the.pure air cf our, mountain home jr of the crystal streams that flow from the living rocks. of the mountain walls.

It's a mass of lachrymal hypo crasy in them to cast discredit on snoh-papers as Dun's and Bradstreet's reprorts that are pointing out the signs that are present on every hand of returning prosperity, The big howler is as inconsistent as usual in its opposition (for politipal e reasons) to prosperity.

It is stated by those professing to be on the inside, however, that another proposition has been advanced, and that it is very likely the mine, for the treatment of whose ore bodies the smelter was erected, will be captured by the smelter owners. Of the strike, it is said it has proven up to all expectation, and that the mine today presents a better and bigger showing that at any time since it was placed upon the market.

The foregoing is from the Tribune,and while The Blade doubts, it hopes that is the truth. The Company spent a fortune on the Ibex mine, and nothing would give The Bdade greater pleasure than to see the company make two fortunes out of it.
