cured valuable horse in this way!
Take an old stocking; make little bag
out OF some part Of Il four OF Eve inches
long; oil II with salt; sew the end up;
take bucket with some water In Il;
dip in the bag with salt; now double up
your shirt sleeve, and rub the sunken
part for fifteen or twenty minutes. Rub
freely, occasionally pulling the skin 40
as 10 loosen II after rubbing. Grease
II; fresh butter Ia best, although other
grease will do. Rub II In also. BY so
doing several mornings successfully, no
doubt the horse will get well. II will

part 10 grow out even with the other
parts, II the hair rubs Oh, II will grow
again.

SALT LAKE, December 4th. - The
District Court this morning overruled
the motion to strike out the answer of
the complaint in the cause of Loomis
VS.. u. p. r. II. The suit is for S25, 900
damages for alleged injuries sustained
by plaintiff in being put off the ears
for playing three-card monte.
Arrangements are being perfected
to connect the Portland, Dalles and
Salt Lake Railroad with the Utah
Northern on Snake river, instead of
connecting with the Central Pacific.
This will insure n continuous line of
narrow gauge all the way from Port
land to Ogden and eventually TO the
southern portion of Utah.
The Grand Jury to-day presented
twelve indictments and adjourned sine
die. The Court, in dIsmissing the .ju-
rors, complimented them upon their
efficiency, saying that if mercy and
leniency would not teach the people
of Utah a lesson, the utmost severity
and rigcr would be resorted to.
Several boys to-day accidentally dis
covered rich gold diggings 40 miles

THE election yesterday passed off
quietly. There were one or two small
skirmishes with fists but they lasted
only moment and were promptly
quelled. The saloons were all closed,
and only those familiar with the
backways and byways could obtain a
drink for love or money. The excite
ment was intense and the streets were
crowded from the opening of the polls
in the morning until vote could no
longer be made useful. The main
fight was on the Mayor and the next
important struggle was for Marshal.
Both sides worked steadily all day.
We do not think great deal of money
was used, and what was spent was in
vested prior to the, day of. election.
The law was generally observed and
the election as orderly as could be de-
sired.

but it is clear, warm and pleasant this

miles Off tho line of the f0ad. Last
Friday morning, Payton, with his
boy, took his team sand went to
place about five miles distant from his
residence, leaving his wife, at home.
On his return in the evening his wife
was missing. The nearest neighbor
was nearly q mile from his residence,
but Payton sounded the alarm as soon
as possible, and search was immedi-
ately commenced for the missing wife
and mother. On Sunday afternoon,
she was discovered in almost dying
condition in ravine about six miles
from her residence, and from her was
learned the horrible story of her suf-
ferings. About an hour after her
husband left home on Friday, five
Mexicans or Californians rode up to the
house and asked for a drink of water,
and as Mrs. Payton entered the house
to procure it two Of the Mexicans dis
mounted. When she returned she
was suddenly seized and bound hand
and foot, placed on the horse of one of
the parties. The whole party then
dashed off at full speed making for q
ravine in the foot hills some miles dis
tant. After about three hours ride,
gave Indications of being an old
camp,and where there was some extra
horses and q quantity of provisions.
Here the party dismounted and COM

ued until Sunday morning. The mar
rative of the sufferings of the helpless
woman, who had been dragged from
home to crafty the unnatural lust of
these demons, cannot be described, and
the widest imagination cannot con-
ceive of a more awful crime than was
there enacted. Not once, merely, but
repeatedly did each one of these fiends
in human form subject their weak,
struggling victim to nameless out
rage, and in addition she was beaten
with their fists and lashed with their
riding whips, until the blood flowed
down her body.
At.an early hour on Sunday morn.
ing the scoundrels broke camp, and
heading the poor woman down the ra-
vine upon which they had been To-
Gated, gave her several 'tcutso with
switches, started her off in one direc-
ton, they riding off in another. Fol
several hours she wandered -blindly,
staggering and stubling along, until
at last, almost famished for want of
food, and nearly dead from the inju-
ries she had received, she fell in a
faint at the point where her husband
discovered her in the afternoon. The
poor woman was taken to the nearest
residence and received all the care
and attention possible, but on Mon
day morning, when Furness last saw
her, it was very doubtful whether she
could survive the injuries she had re-
eeived. The country in which this
unparalleled outrage was perpetrated
is sparsly settled, but all of the availa-
BILE forces of the region were soon
afield in search of the perpetrators OF
the crime. The roughness Of the re-
gion and the small mass of the pursu-
ing force are such, however, that but
little hopes are entertained of captur-
ing them.

After the Battle.

The struggle is over and the people
are the victors. Probably more ex-
citing election has never transpired in.
any city of California than that which
took place in Los Angeles yesterday
The campaign has been bitter and
acrimonious. The whole struggle was
for the Mayor. OF the four candi-
dates BEAUDRY, SACRIsTE, TIFFANY
and SABICHI-the first named was
the only one who might be regarded
as the friend of the people. Major SA-
CRIsTE though worthy gentleman
and highly respected, did not enter
the campaign until too late to secure
the support of any but his personal
friends. Both TIFFANY and SABICHI
were recognized as the candidates
of the exclusive franchise corporations
who have by their ,exactions become
both oppressive and obnoxious to the
citizens. Mr.. BEAUDRY is a man of
the people and from the opening of
the campaign it was apparent to all
discerning men that he would be
elected unless unusual and unfair
means were used to defeat him. AS
the battle grew warm. the most dis
honorable and disgraceful as well as
totally unfounded charges were made
against him by both the Star aud Er-
press; but as these libels and slanders
appeared they were promptly nailed
by the HERALD, which is generally
read by the English speaking portion
of our population, and by the Cronica,
which is the able organ of the Spanish
speaking population. No man was
ever more falsely or maliciously SLAM
dered than Mr.. BEAUDRY by the E1r-
press, but the people have manifested
their contempt for that venal and dis
reputable sheet and their confidence
in and esteem for him by electing him
Mayor by a majority which may ex-
ceed and certainly will not fall far be-
low 400. The HERALD has made q
strong fight for what it believed to be
for the best interest of the people. 1t
made this fight against the combina-
ton of capital and the old schemers
who have controlled the city for the
last twenty years and it is proud of it's
victory. The people of Los Angeles
will now manage their own municipal
affairs for time at least. Fale the

Organizations, Unions and Rings.

Organization and union, in the good
old days of patriotism, meant strength
and safety; but the latest edition of
dictionaries gives definition which
reverses the old style. Organization
now means monopoly, and monopoly
means oppression, and oppression
means slavery, and slavery means the
degradation and ruin of all it's subjects.
There are in existence organizations
of ancient mould which have passed
over the hills of thirty centuries, now
venerated for their antiquity and
loved for the wisdom they impart and
sustained by their own inherent
strength. Like the Egyptian pyra-
mids, they stand as monuments of the
granduer- and nobleness of ancient
races. The peculiar strength of an
cient organizations lay in their mega
tive qualities-non-interference with
your duty to God, to your neighbor or
yourself. With these negative qGali-
ties an organization can be male
strong and useful; but it, is pecul-
iarity of all modern organizations to
bind men and undermine their liber-
ties. The trades union, art union, la
Dor union lin fact, all the rings
and companies formed during the last
quarter of a century are formed upon
the principle of yelfshness; and we
here take the ground boldly that all
selfish organizations are curse to
their members and curse to the coun-
try at large.
