The Tarif-Lead.

SALT LAKE CITY. Dec. II. 1882.
Editors Herald:
at last. it appears, that questions
other than Mormonism and po-
lygamy, are likely to come to the
surface and attract attention.
1t is so seldom that anything is
said by certain class of the citi-
Zens of Utah, upon questions of the
policy Of the United States, that |
own to sense of qualification at
witnessing the late meetings held
in Salt Lake City to take into con-
sideration the tariff on lead, even
though the position of gentlemen
composing the meetings, is far re-
moved from my own notions on
the subject of protection, because it
is to be hoped that agitation will
lead to investigation, and eventu-
ally to true appreciation of that
subject.
Can it be possible that these
meetings, and their action, are held
merely for the purpose of
maintaining the present high
premium on lead production ?
or is it not more probable that this
action is had for the purpose of aid
ing prOtectionists elsewhere, and
Strengthening the spine of the Re-
publican party? Surely the latter
appears to me the more reasonable
conclusion, else why should Professor
Holden go to all the trouble of re-
hashing the protective doctrine
which he says sis as old as estab-
lished government" and why else
should the lead-tariff meeting,
headed by Gov. Murray, who may
be termed the representative of the
Republican party in Utah, so cor
daily endorse Mr.. Holden's sad
dress" and appoint him to carry the
news to Washington?
lis address contains the usual
points advanced in the favor of pro-
lection, and is painted in glowing
colors by the polished Professor; in
fact l think [ may say without ex-
aggeration, that in many respects
they are too highly colored to be
true.
When the meeting at the Walker
House heard and unanimously
adopted that portion of MIR, Hol-
den's address wherein he said, "that
all the business of this territory is
largely dependent for success on
the production OF these ores
and metals, dead and copper and
that the success heretofore obtained
has been due the tariff on those
metals and their ores, and without
such tariff the greatest Of all the
producing interests of this territory
viz: the mining and reduction of
ores, would be shut dOwn"-it must
have escaped the attention of the
gentlemen composing the meeting
that the figures do not sustain the
proposition.
Col. HOLSTER is, no doubt. regard
ed as good authority on these sub
jects, which he seems to have inves-
tidated, and on reference TO his Ere
sources and Attractions Of Utah" /
find some tables which would seem
to conflict with Mr.. Rolden's state
ment.
In the tables given by the Colonel
on pages 81 and %, of the above
work, find that Utah produced in
1881 ores and bullion. as follows:

THE cHApPAREL COCK.
Texas Sntings.

This elegantly shaped bird, with long
tail and top knot, is called by the Am
ericans, the chapparel cock. The Mexi-
cans call him el caparal, or the corporal.
The American name chapparel cock is
evidently the Mexican name corporal
Americanized. Why the Mexicans call
this bird a corporal we do not know, but
we can guess. Possibly the Mexicaps
detect some semblance to corporal in
the top-knot, but our private opinion is
there is another reason forit Very likely
the Mexican corporal is in the habit Of
getting away from danger faster than the
rank and file, and as this bird can run
faster than anything else that has legs,
the Mexicans, to poke fun at the bird,
promoted him to the rank Of corporal.
This, however, is q mere surmise. The
chapparel cock is such fast bird, that
he makes better time standing still than
is made by most railroad trains in Texas.
He runs like Bourbon Democrat in the
blue, grass region Of Kentucky, but he can
not fly worth . cent. There is really no
occasion for his running SO fast in order
to make living, as his diet consists ex-
clusively of bugs and insects that crawl

on the ground. The chapparel cock is
not a shy bird. He stands around and
looks at you very much as if he wanted
to invited up to take something. The
chapparel cock is not only handsome
bird, but he is very useful. He seems to
have been created for the special purpose
of preventing centipedes from being too
numerous. He patronizes all kinds of
bugs, but the centipede gets most of his
custom. AS soon as chapparel cock
sees lonesome centipede, he takes up
with him, or to be more correct, takes
him up right off. A peculiar feature of
the performance is that he does not kill
the centipede at once, but picks him up
in his bill, and runs about with him. Why
the chapparel cock goes through these
monkey shines we do not know. He is
not communicative bird. We can only
surmise. It may be that he carries the
centipede about in that way in order to
amuse himself. Our own impression is
that he runs about to get up an appetite.
He has too much sense to eat the cent?.
pede alive, so, after he is tired furnishing
the insect with transportation, he takes
him up by the head. and passes him side
ways through his bill, very much as
shirt collar is passed through patent
clothes wringer. After this process is
completed, the insect has no objections TO
being swallowed, and the sagacious bird
gobbles him endwaYs. There is nothing
more of importance to say about the chap
parel cock, except that he can not crow
like a campaign rooster. He has never
been known to crow, but perhaps he may
be Democratic or a Greenback cock,
and never has any occasion to try, at
least not of late years.

HE COULDN'T STAND IT.

"Is this seat engaged :" he asked Of
the prettiest girl in the car, and, finding
it wasn't he put his sample box in the
rack and braced himself for solid enjoy
ment.
pleasant day." said the girl, coming
to him before he could get his tongue
unkinked. "Most bewildsring day, isn't
it,"
"Ye-yes, MISS" stammered the drum
mer. He wasn't in the habit Of playing
pitcher in this kind of match, and the
position of catcher didn't fit him as tight
as his pantaloons.
"Nice weather Cor travelling" con-
tinued the girl; much nicer than when
1t was cold. Are you perfectly comfort
able :"
sob, yes; thanks :" murmured the
drummer.
"Glad of it," resumed the girl cheer
fully. "You don't look So Let me put
my shawl under you head, won't you :

and have me describe the landscape to

"You'll-you'll have to excuse me :"

"You look Sc tired" she pleade d !;
"wouldn't you like to rest your head on

the poor drummer looked around help
lessly.
"Your scarf pin is coming out. Let
me fix it. There ~ and she arrayed it

destination you'll let me call on you ;"
and she smiled an anxious prayer right
up into his pallid countenance.
81 think I'll go away and smoke"
said the drummer and hauling down his
gripsack, he made for the door, knee
deep in the grins answered around him
by his fellow passengers.
"Strange," murmured the girl to la
