At Salt Lake, Saturday, George r.
Reynolds, bigamist, was sentenced to
two years imprisonment and $500 fine.

vent conviction.
Professor Childs of Harvard has Just
held the Harvard-examination for wo-
men at New York. Only nine pre-
sented themselves, against sixteen last

the policy of treating women as differ

a state exchange says: "a new way OF
swapping horses was practiced by q
professional horse jockey who called
upon quiet farmer on the East Hill,
bantering him TO trade horses, urging
him TO harness his horse aud drive it a
short distance TO see its good qualities.
As soon as the good farmer got out of
sight he went into the barn, taking out
the farmers horse, and Harvesting IL i'm
with another horse, he drove away at
full speed before the farmer returned.
Many days have passed and the jockey
has not returned with the farmers
horse, which was far more worthy
beast than the one he left behind"
Daniel Brooks, an Englishman about
forty years of age, living oil the Plains
near Burlington, being jealous of his
wife, beat her, Monday evening. with
the butt of whip, and the Free Press
says her face has been pounded ont of
ali semblance to humanity. Both eyes
were closed, and the whole face was a
mass of Jelly; and on her head were
twelve distinct cuts. Her hands,
wrist and arms from the elbows down,
were also frightiully disfgured, evil
IDENTIFY while attempting to ward off the
blows of her worse than brutal hus-
band. A physician was at once sum-
moned, and did everything possible for
the unfortunate woman. On his re-
turn he notified the police, and Sheriff
Drew and his subordinates went to
work, snd finally the sheriff arrested
him at Winooski and lodged him in
jail at Burlington. The woman is still
in semi-conscious condition only, and
may possibly not recover, Der injuries
being very severe and dangerous.
Brooks was at first told that his wife
was dead, aud he expressed deep con-
triton for his deed, but revived some
what when informed that she was sill
alive. The assault was one of the most
brutal and cowardly that has ever come
under our notice, and 1t is TO be hoped
that summary example will be made

Taylor, Republican, is likewise fortunate
Both gentlemen at present occupy the
positions for which they are again can
didates. The fact that there are none to
oppose them. is sufficient evidence that
they have given the greatest satisfaction
and nre entitled TO reelection.
For Comfy Superintendent Of Public
Schools, George E. Noonan, of Weaver
vile, and Chas. b. Eastman, of Lewiston
are the opposing candidates. Between
these choice can be easily made and
should rcsdlt in large majority for Mr..
Noonan. Our friend, "Parson" Eastman
is nice old gentleman, but hardly the
man for the place. There is but little
pay attached TO the position which is
more "A matter of convenience than pro
TT. Mr.. Noonan, having attended to the
Office business of the present Superintend-
ent for some time, is familiar with the
routine duties and his known qualiGca,
tions are guarantee that he will make
an excellent School Superintendent.
For County Surveyor, VIA. S. Low
den and O. NJ. Loveridqe are the candid
ates. There is nothing in the Office and
neither gentlemen will feel very highly
elated nor very sore whether elected or
defeated.

WHY Nor TELL THE Turn MANY,
perhaps most, of The stumpers who de
claim foI Glenn dwell entirely upon rail-
road matters, just as if they were still in
the canvass, when, as Kearney well says,
and as all intelligent men know, that sub,
ject was by the Constitution itself taken
out of politics and referred incontinently
tpa Legislative, Judicial and Executive
Commission having plenary powers. And
not only do they try to keep in the con
test this subject which the trainers of the
new Constitution said they sent to spe-
cial commission for the very purpose of
keeping it out of politics, but they do not
always tell the truth when discussing that
question. 1t is often asserted that the
railway was built with the money of the
public, when the fact is, that the public
never gave dime toward that object
The Government simply loaned the Ma
tiOn's credit to aid in the construction OF
this great work, and the peop lie have been
amply repaid for the use of that credit
and when these notes or bonds, which the
Nation indorsed are liquidated, as they
will be by means of the sinking fund now
in process Of creation. the indorser will be
freed from the obligation. The man who
indorsed another's note to secure the pay
ment for horse, might as well say that
the horse was bought with his money, as
might it he said that the overland road
WAS built with the peoples money when,
as yet, the people have paid not a dollar
toward its construction, nor is there the
least likelihood that they ever will have
10 pay dollar in that direction. Ii
would be just as easy for the stumpers to
tell the truth as to act as they are doing
and the people are entitled to the truth

that 1t is White and not Glenn whom The

price Of labor fell, and / now pay white
men 81 so and Chinese 81 %" In other
word, Glenn reduced his white labor
twenty-five per cent; his Chinese sixteen
per cent. OF went fifty cents from every
head Of n family striving for their sup
port, while the moon-eyed Monaghan,
with only himself to take core Of, was re-
duced only qum ter ofa dollar. This is
the standard established by DR.. Glenn,

Chinaman is worth within Two bits Of as
much ms a white man, and this idea is
