SNoBBERY.-The Salt Lake Tribun

SNoBBERY.-The Salt Lake Tribune
says:
His Excellency Governor Woods and
Mrs. Woods entertained General Ord, of
the United States Army, and large
party of prominent gentlemen of our
city at an elegant dinner party in the
Executive Mansion yesterday afternoon.
Both the civil and military we're largely
represented at the hospitable board Of
the distinguished host and hostess.
Commenting on the above, the Salt
Lake Press says;
"Civil and military" Executive
Mansion" His Excellency" and dds.
tinpuished host and hostess" is the Ian.
guage of toadyism. We have no doubt
that His Excellency" can put on as
much style as any man living on three
thousand dollars year. With little
larger salary and Tribune reporter to
eat the crumbs that fall from his mas
ter's table, we should doubtless read in
that paper of e royal banquet. 1t is as.
tonishing how q square meal affects the
rhetoric Of a flunky.

glad that the horrible tale proved not to

TIE Independents held mass meet

In Eureka the Independents and some
player folks had row over the Court

the player folks leave to use the build

Independents wanted to use it for a

as a wood sawyer. They suubbed the
County Commissioners, which no doubt
served them right, and told the player

the affair is that the council refused to COM

sold without license, and that to appoint an
extra police force to protect an unlicensed
