Show The Ogden Sun thinks national legislation leg-islation costs rather more than it comeB to. We do not think this is true in every instance. It would cost perhaps ten thousand dollars; to pass j a free coinage bill which would be worth five billions to the country at this juncture, besides proving a moral force for us worth untold millions v ere such a bin passed and signed today, in three days the Coxey armies would be on the home stretch and an honest, solvent man could again borrow bor-row money on real estate as formerly. There would "be money ia that if the pioglf bill would cost ui twenty mil lions or more. We trust the Sun will study this idea a little and act upon it by strongly advocating the policy. TriE situation prevailing now is playing directly into the hands of the populists. The industrial armies, the strikers and the general distress prevailing pre-vailing are being looked at this way: The republican policy is the first to blame, and the democratic party by deferring de-ferring reform action comes in for the blame to a greater degree than they. This is the food for populism to fatten oa. The situation as produced by the acts of both the great national parties makes it undesirable in their eyes, to continue either iu power, then it becomes be-comes a matter of mere necessity, still in their eyes, to try the pops. We should act at once Thk Dispatch heartily congratulates Judge Dusenberry upon his appointment appoint-ment to the position of probate judge of Utah county, news of which appointment appoint-ment reached the city late Saturday afternoon, too late for publication.Judge Dusenberry needs no commendation from The Dispatch. He has served before in the same capacity and his ex-. cellent record in the office is a sufficient guarantee for the future. Judge Jones, the retiring officer,has left a fair record behind him and many attached friends. We are not informed as to what Judge Jones means to do but suppose he will enter the practice of law. In addition to a review of the Cleveland Cleve-land administration by ex-Governor Russell (dem ) of Massachusetts and Senator Cullom (Rep.) of Illinois, the May Forum will contain a discussion of unusual opportuneness and point at a time when "armies" of tramps are marching towards Washington of the question whether the state ehould give aid to the unemployed, by Dr, Stanton Coit of New York, who favors state-aid and by Mr. D. McGregor Means, who argues that state-aid means socialism . Thk profession of the aeronaut is a very hazardous one, but if a balloon never gets any farther from ten a firma than it does in Provo, the hazard isn't much greater than it is to a muleteer. Some human being's life must be put to the risk if there is to be any excitement excite-ment or interest upon an occasion. This is a hard climate for the balloonist. The Mount Pleasant Pyramid is interestingly in-terestingly edited and it is, typographi-cally.one typographi-cally.one of the neatest papers in Utah. It6eerrs tobe prospering which gives The Dispatch much pleasure as we are always glad to see meritorious d a pers succeed. The Manti Messenger is firmly convinced con-vinced that the tariff is not merely a local issue. The wisdom teeth are rapidly sprouting in that level head, sure enough.
