Cabinet Speculations.

Contrary to expectation, rumors are
already rife of an early disruption Of
the Cabinet and it is strongly believed
that four members, Blaine, James, Nc
Weigh and Hunt will shortly retire
Founded upon remark of Mrs
Blaine, the report is current that
Blaine will insist upon the Immediate
acceptance Of the resignation that has
been rendered along with that of the
other members of the Cabinet.
Mr.. Arthur is president Of the coun-
try by provision Of the constitution
that entities him to the same ptivl-
leges and makes him as fully presl-
dent, as the electoral provision under
which Garfield became president and
being so, has undoubted right to
change the personnel of his official
household.
While we believe that an immediate
cabinet change was not anticipated
by majority of people, that the
change would eventually come, few
doubted and the right to make the
change all conceded.

Our Candidacy.

It has been deemed proper on The
part of those, under whose manage
meut the CLARION has thus far fallen
to have it conducted as an independ
ent or non-political paper.
Under its present management, il
has been the special aim of the editor
to divest it Of all faint Of, or disposi'
ton towards partisan politics.
Certainly no one can have assumed
that its editor had divorced himself
as well as his paper, from all politica!
sentiment and utilization; to expect or
imagine so much, would be unnatu-
raj.
While it may not fall within the
province Of, or be judicious on the
part Of the local paper to take parti'
san issue in politics; it is none the less
a privilege and duty, that the editor
in the exercise of his rights as c!ti-
zen, should form, express and act upon
opinions of political issues, as they
rise before the people for their arbi'
trament.
We trust therefore, that the CHAR
.oN will enjoy immunity in its right
to repay us for our warm attachment
to its interests, and be privileged to
mention favorably the circumstance,
that its editor, in accepting a place
upon the Delegate ticket, finds him.
self in a position, wherein it becomes
him to solicit the consideration of its
readers.
Should the CLARION succeed with
its friends, only so far as to attract
their friendly interest in its editor,
surely no one can claim that it has
done more or less than its duty.

OUR DELlvERANCE AT HAND.

In another column will be found the
articles of incorporation of the Salt Lake
and Western Railroad, which is to be
built through the State of Nevada as a
competing line against the Central Pa
cific. The people of the Pacific Coast
and more especially the State of Nevada
will welcome with outstretched arms
the coming of such a line. It is better
for Nevada than a development on the
Comstock; better than hundred thou
sand acres of new land under cultivation:
better than any one thing which could
be mentioned in a category of blessings
It means that the heavy foot of Leland
Stanford, which has been planted for
years on the breas Of Navada's prosperi-
ty, will be taken off by stonger power
With four hundred miles of a competing
line passing directly through this State,
there will be an end of the robberies and
back freight charges, and business men
will be able to make money in legiti-
mate trade which they will not be oblig-
ed to throw into the NAV of monopo-
~ whose appetite is unappeasable. BY
reason of the discriminating freight |
tariff which has oppressed Nevada for
years past the business CT the State has
sank to starvation level, and is wal
lowing in the stump of stagnation. The
people of Nevada have submitted the
question to their State Legislature and
the Congress of the United States to
find no relief. The advent of Jay Gould
and Sydney Dillon into the field is an
enswer to all our prayers. Our new al
~ is q monyed power representing
millions of capitol. Before this vast
wealth the arrogance of the C. p. man.
ayers will receive a humbling which
every resident of the sagebrush will
laugh to witness.

THE GREAT FALLS.
4 scheme to Further Utilize the
Power at Niagara.

The recent visit of the American So
ciety of Civil Engineers to Niagara
Falls has drawn renewed attention to
the works for utilizing some of the
enormous water power of Niagara
River, which are now in progress I'M
der the auspices Of the new company.
The canal was originally constructed
by Horace II. Day, of New York, in
the year 1850, at cost of $3.50, 600
The canal debouches from the river
above the falls, and discharges into the
reservoir below them, being three
fourths of n mile in length. Its d.
mansions at present are about thirty
five feet in width by ten feet in depth,
but the new company has land enough
secured to enlarge it, when necessary,
to 100 feet wide. There is q fall of two
feet in the length of the canal 1t is ar
ranged to extend the reservoir, as re-
quired, to mile in length along the
river bank, its width being seventy feet
and depth same as the canal. -Four
wheels owned by private individuals
were in operation forme rly. The new
company, formed some years ago,
bought the old undertaking at mere
song, and is now developing the scheme
into a thoroughly organized water
power company. They have nearly
completed wheel pit not far from the
lower extremity of the present reser
voir, forty feet long by twenty feet
wide, sunk in the solid rock eighty-six
feet, from which tunnel. ten feet by
six feet, has been bored for discharging
the waste into the river. 1t is proposed
to ultimately place three wheels in
this pit but for the present only fifty
inch Ridson turbine is in position, I'm.
der a head of eighty six feet, develop
ing some / 100 horsepower. The water
is led from the reservoir to the wheels
by huge iron pipes. The total avail
able head is about 224 feet, which, after
deducting the eighty-six feet at present
employed, leaves some 1874 feet yet
available. The possibilities of power
appear at first sight to be inexhaustible.
Considering their magnitude, the ig-
norance concerning the works in pro-
gress is very surprising, but it is no
doubt due to the cloud resting over the
original operations connected with this
water-pow scheme, which has now
been removed.

She remembered, as if it were Inn,
Yesterday, night, {. great many vears

child, whose mother was dead, and
there was no one in the wide world IN
whom she dared to say that the lighis
and shadows made by the moonlight
coming through broken STAT in tho
blind were so frightful to her that she
could not sleep, but lay holding her
breath, and almost smothered beneath
the clothes. She felt sure that her own
little 6-year-old boy was suffering from
this same unreasonable terror, at which

waiting for him. The child, taking his
mothers advice and lighting the candle
which kindly freak of fortune allowed
him to have, removed the cause of his
terror, put out the light, and went back
to his bed, and in very few minutes
profound silence indicated that he was
fast asleep.
One can easily feel sympathy for what
may seem like an absurd within in
child if he or she has paid any atten.
ton to the literature of nervousness,
aud knows anything of the many ways
in which strong minded men have been
afflicted by Authorizations, or have
been annoyed, as was the old carpenter,
who, when sick, called his son to his
bedside and asked him to make shelf
that was in his room perfectly true, and
when the son demonstrated, he said
with an expression that was not to be
denied: "Troubl's trouble; that shelf
must be changed"
1t is to be deplored that mothers,

the knowledge thus gained to prevent
morbid condition of the mind, which
