(Published Etebt Fbiday.) IT HERALD NEWS EXPRESS CO. TERMSS 1. 50 Per Year in Advance. A'PBODUCnoN of Romeo and Juliet failed to excite any interest in Salt Lake City. The Mormons have no sympathy for a hero who makea si much fuss over one woman.

The Democrat, still insists that Huntington has but 8,808 inhabitants. And the pettifogging attorney in editorial charge calls this "standing up for Huntington!" The Democrat still manifests considerable dissatisfaction over the nomi nation of Dr. Carson for Mayor. Its opposition was anticipated, but nobody I expected it would become so alarming ly crazy on tne subject, it even pretends to Bpeat for Republicans in its hallucination, when the real fact is that it doesn't represent the free silver Democracy of Huntington. The consideration of the Deacon the appointment of city election inspectors.

But one straight out Re publican was named out of the nine ap pointees. and that was done with great reluctance. After such an exhibition of "courtesy" toward Republicans, the Deacon should write another chapter giving reasons why the Republicans should support the Democratic The Hebald believes that the message of President jlcKinley is a logical and safe document, and that the policy lie has outlined is the correct one for this Government. It believes, too, that his policy i8 the be st one for the people ofCubaTand thaOTwill estab lish the Republic ofjhat Island on a firm basis. War with honor, based upon just cause, will bring no reproach upon the people.

War for revenge or conquest, war with no higher in spiration 'than hatred of Spain, is' not resident McKInleys patriotic purposes and liberty loving principles are a safe guide in the present crisis'. The freedom of Cuba from the Spanish yoke is as dear to the administration as it ia to the peo pie. THETampalgnllar of' the ITemocrat is likely to prove effective in a boom erang way. His intimation that if the Republicans were in control of Huntington "the people would be wading around in the mud, without any sys tem of sewerage, without lights or fire protection," is a gratuitous insult. and a trap for the feet of the bummy little demagogues who give the inspiration.

The Republicans of Huntington have done their share in the up building of the city. The fact that they object to being robbed, and insist upon an economical and business like administration, does not give the Dem ocrat license to libel them aa drones in the community. The Deacon will make no votes among Republicans for Zack Dungan by alandera of that char acter. "Tut greed folJ power" ha struck another blow at silver. A half million dollar plant, recently eatabllahed In Maine, to obtain gold from sea water, baa presented the first result ot ita work at the United 8tatea aay oflioe In New York, In (he ahape of about 100 ounoea of gold and allver bullion, the proportion being about one part gold and two part allver.

With the gold mlnea of the world Increasing their out p)rt enormously, and even the waters of the ocean giving up their gold at thia rate, the prospect of a gold famine grow beautifully leas. Recenti.V published table comparing prlooa at the date of tho Chicago convention in 1896 with those of March, 1897, aa nhown by tho Omaha World Horald's market reports, have created a panlo amonj the Democrats at Wash ington, and Representative Bailey, the Democratic leader, has caused them to bo stricken from the Congressional Record, in which they had been published. Tho Democrats do not want the people to know that all farm pro ducts have advanced In price while silver has gone down, but they know it Just the same. It is the belief of the tax payers that the tax levy of $1.60 in this city (almost double the tax levy in the cities of Fort Marion, Koko mo, LogariBport, Peru and Wabash,) is exorbitant and unjustifiable. It is therefore interesting to know how the jaljandidttte88UndupootbeBub ject.

The views of Dr. Carson and Mr. Dungan are expressed in the fol io wing aitterancea Dr. Carson "An exorbitant tax lew cripples industry. drives out capital, par alyzes business, pre vents me location oi factories and other en growth of population, and In a hundred other ways Interferes with tha material develop ment and prosperity of our city," Z.

T. Dungan "I want the office of Mayor for the money there Is In It, and to redeem my record." TuE Democrat promulgates the fol lowing: Don't you "know that Jacob Speaker, Peter Foster, Charles Mader, Ray Dickinson, Anthony A. Weber and Warren Dumbauld can be trusted to Teguhithe expensea of the city Jacob Speaker, Charles Mader and Anthony Weber are members of the present city council. When have they evidenced any disposition to reduce' the running expenses of the cityP Have they not insisted that the enormous tax levy of $1.60 for two years past was the lowest levy upon which they and Bill Dimond could run the cityP Is Bill Dimond the "Jonah," that his absence from the council will enable1 these men to better, protect the interests of the people ofHuntingtonin the futureP. If the free 8ilver push elect butane of their three candidates to the council next May, will not these three hold over members still retain control of the caucus which determines the weal or woe of the tax payer? The very fact that Messrs.

Speaker, Mader and Weber will continue on the council is that much more of an incentive to the people to make a clean sweep of the political platter, to the end that an economical and business like adminis tratlon may follow. Look Out for Pun. The High School boys are getting ready for the base ball season and have entered the field for victory from the word go.

Southampton. March SA. 1898. Dkah Herald: I am thankful in deed that this is an American ship and that It is possible to heat it up to an American' heat, by turning on the steam. If I were not able to seek refuge from the storm which is blow ing off the North Sea, the cold would have possibly even driven me to drink.

I could go in a bar room and be warm, but of course the room is not warmed from charity and it would be neces sary to spend some money. However, found the steam pipes of our mall room hidden under a table, then I found the deck engineer and am now warm. It is rather hard to dress for all kinds of weather, when ono lives in a grip sack, and his living room, including wardrobe capacity, is only about six by eight It was so warm when i left York tnat put on my light overcoat, but the next time I come here I will carry all the clothing I have and an umbrella too. The wind is whistling around the corners about Ilka it does in America, but the snow which is thick in the air melts when it touches the earth, making walking very disagreeable. The dampness in the air feels so cold that I have not even the ambition to tro up town for supper, andl thlnlTI will either fast or else get some of the crew to bring me a little tea, provided 1 can find any one ofTduty.

I was up to "the city," yesterday. on an excursion. The people here all I speak of London as "the city," and the 6nnt)iomnTr fsf4 Vvo 1 1 tnom a rv1 IuvuuucniiuLsuwu awu unit waui iiajou there for the championship cup of Eng I land. About six thousand people at tended the game in the Crystal Palace from this city," and I took advantage of the low rates. I Was curious, too, to pee how I should find an English excur sion which was not of the Sunday school order, for I thought that those who would be in foot ball as to brave the elements would not be the kind who would go to church under the same inclement conditions.

The rate, including admis sion to the game, was one dollar, third class. Considering the twenty five cents entrance fee and the distance, which is seventy eight miles, the rate was Indeed low; Had the weather been good fully ten thousand people would have attended from this city. We all had seats in the car apartment, eacn oencn navlng on it tne sign, "Seats for Five," but we were closely packed. This had its good effect, for we did not notice the absence of all heating apparatus, and by and by we all had taken off our overcoats, in order to make more room. Three English men carried bottles and one offered kindness was not accepted.

There was a certain reserve and formality, but thhj Boon wore off and one wanted to play cards, 'just to pass the time, We put overcoats over our knees and 'for over an hour enjoyed whist. Those who had the bottles did not grow loud nor did they seem to desire to drink everything at once. Almost all. were puffing pipes and all seemed to have a great deal of consideration for those near them. Their expression, "I beg pardon," may be empty, but this is better than to be run over, as in New York, and to have the man who does llneverrn to" see he has killed you.

I did not go to the ball game, but the Southampton people were defeated by a small score. Our train left London to return at midnight, and soon after we were out all persons in the car were asleep excepting the Americans and one native to whom we talked. It seems inap $1.00 Winsome propriate to use tha term "native," for tha Encllah are a superior rao In many ways. Of course the average Jyondon cockney ia of the opinion that he Is' auperlor to all tho rest of the world, but the real heart of England, I think, beara a special good will Hamerlca, No Englishman in conversation aeema to have any love for Germany; that country la cutting into Kngland'a trade too hard and the Kaiser's action about the time of tho South African troubles was not pleasant to them. Waterloo is not forgotten when the French are recalled, but when did England whip America? Aside from all talk of war, however, our customs are' so similar, our inter enU either financial, political or social, are so that we should rec ognize the good in each other.

To be sure John Bull loves himself first, but In these troubled timet when cousin Jonathan gives hia moral support in tho Asiatic problem to England, we hoar the lion purr above the petty contentions we have had. Many English to whom we have talked have admitted the terrible mis take of the Colonial policy which drove America to fight for freedom; they admit our constitution to be the work of masters of thought and they even re joice with us in our prosperity. I could tell more how they like our money, or cigars but as we are al most all prejudiced against this beautiful little island and have been since our sohool days, 1 am afraid I shall be accuBod of being an Anglo maniac, so I wont go farther. I am a good Amer ican, not blind to our faults, not blind to other countries' erood points, and shall hail with joy the day when' Eng land and American can know one an a other better. Chas.
