The SENATE committee, on post
Offices and post roads has not yet
reported, AS it was Instructed to do by
Senator Davis resolution, upon the
expediency of reducing postage on
both newspapers and letters. It is
probable a recommendation in favor
Of reduction will be made, as the
committee has to support it in such
a course the interesting fact that the
postal department, the present year,
will be two million dollars better
than self-sustaining. Nobody should
desire the pOstofice department
to be money.msking con-
Germ, and having reached that
point it is time to reduce post
age, at least to such a rate as will
leave the department no more than
square with the world, financially.
Two cent letter postage and q COR
responding reduction Of the rates on
second class matter or newspapers,
would still leave the department
self-sustaining, provided there was
no increase in the amount Of matter
transmitted through the mails; but
it is a well known fact that a reduc-
ton of the postage rates has always
been met by an increase of mail
matter, so that the service loses
little if anything. 1t is thought the
committee will unanimously recon-
mend the reduction, but it is hardly
probable that the change will be

The Woman and the Rat.

It was early in the morning in
the Union Depot at Cleveland, and
a solitary woman occupied the
waiting-room. 1t was the morning
after Decoration Day, and she was
evidently tired, for she leaned her
head against the wall and dropped
asleep. leaving her lunch unguarded
On the seat beside her. A police
man who happened to be where
duty called him, remarked that he
had seldom seen a more touching
exhibition Of trust and confidence.
Whatever his own designs respect
ing the lunch may have been, he
had no opportunity to carry them
into execution, for at that moment
a large rat, evidently an old
campaigner, for half his tail
was gone, appeared upon the
scene and leaped lightly
upon the WOman's lap to test the
soundness of her slumber. She did
not stir, and the rat sprang upon the
seat and vigorously attacked the
lunch. This was more than the
policeman, who had hitherto
watched the proceedings with
breathless interest, could bear. He
struck wildly at the rat, but missed
it, and his club sank into the Vitals
of doughnut with a disheartening
thud. The woman awoke, and tax
ing in the situation at glance, she
instantly rose to it, and likewise to
the back of the seat where she had
been reposing. From this perilous
position she awoke in time to catch
her train, which had been dispatched
at about the same moment as the
lat.

TIE HAPPY and harmoni-
Gus celebration of Saturday was
but al indication of what
might be in these beauti-
full valleys if al men were lovers of
peace and delighted in harmony.
Every element of our too-often
sadly contentious population was
represented in the asSemblage, and
yet nothing was said or done that
could offend anyone, and it is hoped
no evil thoughts were harbored in
that vast company. The celebration
was singular as a Utah event. Let
US hope that it has inaugurated a
new departure, and that the road
travelled but a short distance yester-
day, may become a beaten and
familiar path to all the people of
Utah.

"a WASHINGTON telegram says
the Utah commission is to continue
until Utah becomes a state. The
law does not so provide, although
that may be the scheme of certain
parties. Indeed, it has been as
serted that the design was to manip-
ulate things so as to make Utah a
state with ruling politics of a kind
satisfactory to republican admin
