The Preservation of Harness.

Though the harness is an article of
ever! -day use there are few who
know how to care for it so as to in
sure its durability, and to keep it
looking clean and neat. A harness
that has been upon horses back
several hours in hot or rainy weather,
becomes wet, and if not properly
cleaned, the damage to the leather is
irreparable. If, after being taken
from the horse in this condition, it is
hung up in Il careless manner, traces
and reins twisted into KNOBS, the
saddle and brides hung askew, the
leather when dried retal ms the shape
given it while wet, and when forced
to its original form damage is done
the stitching and the leather. Those
who use harness are not altogether in
fault for this; they would care of it
if they knew the extent of damage
that would result from their careless
ness, and that they do not is the fault
of the man utacturer. 1t is mistaken.
policy that leads the manufacturer of
any line of goods to neglect giving
needed information to the buyer.
Every harness manufacturer would
study his own interests by accom-
panying each harness sold with
printed rules for preserving the same.
The first point to be observed is to
keep the leather soft and pliable this
can be done only by keeping it well
charged with oil and grease water is
destroyer of these. but mud and,the
saline moisture from the animal are
even more destructive. Mud, in dry
ing, absorbs the grease and opens the
pores ofthe leather. making tia ready
prey to water, while the salty charac-
ter Of the perspiration from the ami
NAL Injuries the leather, stitching and
mountings. Ittheretore follows that
to preserve harness the straps
should be washed and oiled when
ever 1t has been moistened by sweat
or soiled by mud. To do this effect
ually the straps should all be UNI
buckled and detached, then washed
with little water and crown soap,
then coated with a mixture of heats
foot oil and tallow and be allowed to
remain undisturbed until the water
has dried out; then thoroughly rub
bed with wooden rag the rubbing
is important, as it, in addition to re-
moving the surplus oil and grease,
tends to close the pores and gives
a finish to the leather. In hanging
harness care should be taken to al
low all straps to hang their full
Length ; brides, pads, gig saddles
and collars should be hung upon
forms of the shape Of each. Light is
essential in the care of leather, and
when the harness closet is dark the
door should be left open at least hall
! of the time during each day. AL

Message of Governor Murray, of Utah.

WASHINGTON, d. c., January 16.
"A copy of Governor Murry's mes
sage to the territorial legislature of
Utah has just been received at the
Interior Department. The greater
part of the document is devoted to
the recources of Utah and the desira-
bility of bringing the territory into
harmony with the rest of the country,
so as to promote their development.
On the political situation, he lays
down the propositions THAT in no
sense is the sovereignty of church
over state in unison with the consti-
tuition and the laws; that political
power is welded by church authority
throughout Utah ; that officers of the
church exercise authority in temper
al affairs (; that the sovereignty of the
church is supreme and its practices
are followed, the laws and the courts
of the United States to the contrary,
this being true in whole or i'm part"
He continues "Do you believe that
the Government of the United States
will much longer forbear to assert its
sovereignty 2" In regard to poly
gamy, Governor Murray says: "The
system of plural wives was. by act
of Congress of 1867, denounced as a
crime. The constitutionality of this
act has been fully sustained by the
Supreme Court of the United States.
1t being claimed that the people of
Utah are a lawabiding people, SUBJ
nit, as a necessary sequence. that
you, as their representatives, should
enact laws in accordance herewith"
He strongly recommends the restora-
ton to wives of their right OF dover.
of which they have been deprived by
territorial legislation, and says to
grant women the right of franchise
and deny the right of dover is en-
tirely inconsistent.

erly as pensions, suggests ID very sim
pie and effective means of stopping
such abuses. His plan is that the
pension list shall be published, which
list should show the name of the PEN
sioner, rank. character of service or
claim, and amount drawn. He
wants this done, alike in the inter
est of the public, for the protection of
deserving pensioners, and for the ex-
posture of frauds. TTe does not indi-
cate how the publication should be
made,-whether in volume. issued
by the government for that purpose,
or in the newspapers. The latter
method would doubtless be the more
effective. Let the pension list of
each county in the Union, setting
forth all the facts suggested above,
be published say once a year in two
papers of the county, and it is fair to
presume that every person within its
borders would soon be familiar with
the character and merits of every
case, and every tax payer in the COM
munity would thus be enabled to
look out for improper or fraudu-
lent recipients of the public bounty.
1t would doubtless cost considerable
money to carry out this plan but
the sum so expended would not be

national treasury by the reforms
which sucha publication would bring
about.

Work In Congress.

Washington, July MFR. Hiscock,
of New York, made an elaborate speech
on Thursday in explanation of the in
crease of appropriations made by the
present congress over those made in
any previous congress, and in praise of
the action of the republican majority
in passing general legislation bills de-
manded by the country, instancing as
such the anti-Mormon, anti Chinese,
tariff commission. and internal rev.
enue measures. Mr.. Blackburn, of
Kentucky, briefly replied, and criticised
the majority for not having before this
late day passed the general ~approprla-
ton bills provided for the support of
the government. Mr.. Willis, of Ken
lucky, criticised the bill for its omission
to make an appropriation for the pur-
pose Of inaugurating administrative
reform, and attacked the system Of
political assessment, characterizing it
as the sum Of Gall villalnies. Mr..
Bayne, OF Pennsylvania, also made a
speech in favor Of civil service reform.
He criticised the present administra-
ton, declaring that it was unlike that
of President Garfield as the administra-
tions Of jackson and Van Buren, were
unlike those of Washington and Jeffsr-
SOD. Garfield believed in the reign Of
law, the present executive in personal
government. The bullet of Guiteau
had made a mark on the forehead of
stalwartism that could never be effaced.

Chicago, July Judge Harlan, in

that the city has a right to close the

power to regulate the river.

Washington, July THE projected
Mississippi levee railroad as proposed by

sight of in a bigger scheme that is about
to be set on foot by more ~pretentious
parties than the movers. in the first
plan. There is a curious mixture of
names in the matter, both as to the pro-
motors Of the railroad and the enter
prise itself.
The l.evee railroad, to aid which the
Lynch bill proposes a government guar
antee, has as its head, one G. P. Hunt
ington, a wealthy Mississippian, and
not the Q. p. Huntington of Pacific
railroad fame, as has been supposed by
some. The other G. p. Huntington,
however, now appears on the scene In
a similar scheme that projected by his
namesake. Sometime ago the New Or
leans company started a road along
the river and now have a large number
of men at work, it is announced, with
the intention of connecting New Or
leans with Memphis. Such q road was
just what the wellknown G. P. Hunt
ington wanted, as his Chesapeake 4

western roads terminated at New Or

Work ON the Notifications has been
completely stopped. During a recon-
noisance yesterday, 9S guns were OBJ
served bearing on the harbor.
In the house of commons this after
noon during the. debate an the report of
the repression bill, Gladstone said the
government had taken measures I'M
known to parliament to operate against
secret societies.
Officials remaining at the British
consulate and British subjects in the
employ of the Egyptian government
will embark to-day. All merchant
vessels have gone to the outer ports or
leaving the inner harbor to squadron.
1t is stated that 5000 copies of a
revolutionary proclamation printed by
a secret press, and signed by Nicholas
Constantine, q rich cousin Of the en-
peror, has been discovered at the min
istry of marine, and Immediately after
the discovery the director of that de-
psrtment committed suicide.
An amendment offered by Trevelyan,
chief secretary for Ireland, TO limit the
right to search to day time, except in
the case of secret societies, was strongly
opposed by conservatives and others.
Gladstone declared that If the amend
ment was rejected he would have to
consider his personal position. Amend
ment rejected, DOT to 1914.
