Traffic in Women

A Chinaman when anxious to have
China Herald, sends a letter to an agent
in Hong Kong. A reporter has one Of
these epistles, but it is practically impos-
sble to translate 1t into English. The
following, h0wever,is condensed trans
lation: Il want a wife. She must be
a maiden under 20 years Of age, and
must have left her fathers house. She
must also have never read book, and
her eye lashes must be half an inch in
length. Her teeth must be as spark
ling as the pearls of CeyOn. Her breath
must be like unto the scents of the mag
nificent odorOu3 groves Of Java, and her
attire must be from the silken weavers
Of ka-Li-Ching, which are on the banks
OF the greatest river in the worli-the
Overlooking Iank-tSe- kiang." The
price Of the Chinese woman delivered
in Sidney is e3S, but two Chinese
women cost only s52; therefore the
heather Chinese import the women
in couples. The importer never sees
his women before they arrive, and then
he generally selects the best looking
one. The other is shown around to
number of well to-cio Chinese and, after
they have inspected her, she is submit
ted to what may be called auction. The
writer happened to be present at one of
these sales. A young girl aged about
10 years was offered, and after some
spirited bidding she WAS purchased by
a wealthy Chinese stCrskeeper, whose
place Of business is in one of the leading
towns of New South Wales. for e12O.
The melancholy aspect of the Celestial
girl, as she went away in company with
the man who purchased her, was de
pIorable to the last degree.

Cengurabl0 Practices.

AS in Shak espeare's time, so there
ored in the breach than the observance
There are at least many practices in
dulged in by thoughtlcss, careless and
ignorant persons that should be stopped
Holdin. a man by the butten-hole OF
| his coat on the street in cold weather tc
ask a favor, is an exceedingly bad prac-
tice, especially if the button-holed man
is not in good health, and one that
should be forbidden by law.
Turning to the left when meeting
persons on crowded sidewalk is the
practice of many persons who ought to
know that in the United States the
rule is "turn to the right"
Running from the front seats Of =
theater just before the curtain falls on
the last act is an ahominable practice, j.
an evidence of seiishness and bad man
ners on the part of the psrson who do@s
it, and a practice that should not be per
mitted by theatrical managers. Also
telling a person near by, in a loud voice,
the plot Of the piece being played is
bad habit, and indicates that the wise
informant is from the country, or lacks
good breeding.
Walking on the sidewalk with a cane
under ones arm is practice that should
be classified in our Law books under the
head of felonies A sudden stop causes
some good man who is behind, and who
cannot well spare it, to lose an eye.
Borrowing books instead of buying
them, is habit that withholds from
booksellers their just due. and causes the
owners of the hC0lls lent to frequently
utter heartfelt curses that make the
angels weep.
Occupying two seats in car when
other persons in the car are uncomfort-
ably crowded is the practice Of persons
who travel but little, and who desire to
impress fellow travellers with sense OF
their own importance. This practice
indicates the fact that, by tracing the
record of the guilty person
back six generations, his paternal an
&c stor will be found TO have been hog,
and poor breed of a hos at that.
Dressing in good clothes and neglect
ting to pay for them, is a practice pc
,uIiar to good-lookins young men who
,Cdeavor to do a large society business
On a small amount of capital. This
practice is nearly as mean as is the too
common practice Of forgetting to pay
ones subscription to a newspaper,
Neither practice can be stepped until
improves.

Local Talent.

A stranger who attended the concert
on Friday last, says that he has visited
nearly every town On the coast, and has
attended hundreds of amateur enter
tainmsnts, but never saw 50 much
talent concentrated in one small town
as he found in Carson. This is true,
for tho Same thing has often before
been remarked by strangers who
CHANGED to attend amateur perform
ances in this city.

CnreasonabLeness Of Show People visit
Ing Carson.


Hotel keepers and other business
men Of this city complain Of the man
ner in which they are treated by the
strical companies of all grades visiting
Carson. They want to get everythin:
at lesser figures than is charged even a
San Francisco, the cheapest city on the
continent. For instance, they demand
suite of apartments, with fire, st the
hotels hera for sl.40 per day, without
the slightest blush suhusins tkeig
brazen cheeks. Not only that, but
for their royal dOuce,W they demand
that all the servants OF the hotel shOu d
be at their beck and call at all hours of
tho day and night, to the neglect of
patrons who pay three times the rates
that the theatrical people do. On the
other hand. there is not small town on
the PacitI" Coast where a good com
panv is more generously patr0nized
than here; no troupe of merit ever
visits this place without playing =
profitable night or two. While the the
atrical people claim that they base their
demand for unremunerative hotel rates
upon the ground that everything is
getting cheaper on the coast, yet when
they come here they still charge the
same rstes for admission that were de-
mandcd fifteen years ago. lor Instance,
when the Emerson Ministries visited
Carson a short time ago, the rate OF zd-
mission was one dollar, and they con-
templatcd charging twenty-five cents
extra for reserved seats, but the man
ascmeat was advised that such step
would be injudici0us and the proposed
robbery VAS not perpetrated. The
sans company has been playing =.
MarysviI!e. California, at fifty and
seventy-fvs cents per single admission,
and It i, sale to say that they paid at
least fifty per cent. more for hotel &C
Communications than they were willing
to pay in Carson. We do not say that
all companies visiting this city are as
as those referred to, but
nine out Of every ten are.

A SECOND WINDFALL.
Another Lodging house Keeper of
HALEY InheritS a Legacy.


Some time since the Times stated
that Mrs. Jones, keeper of the lodg-
ing house corner of Bullion street
and First avenue, had been left a
legacy in England amounting 10
over S250,000 of our money. And
now comes the news of another
windfall to another lodging-house
keeper Of HALEY. The lucky in
dividual this time is W. S. Lewis,
keeper Of the XII Mt beds, on
Main street, above Galena. About
two weeks ago Mr.. Lewis was noti-
fed that a valuable tract of land on
the Wabash River, in Indiana, had
been left him by a relative recently
deceased. With the notice came an
offer of $4,000 cash for the land.
Mr.. Lewis will leave in about two
weeks for Indiana where he will de-
eide upon accepting or rejecting the
offer. He owns some mining inter-
ests here, besides some town prop
erty and freight teams, and he pro-
poses to come back within month
to look after them-so that it is
quite likely that he will sell his land
and return to US well "heeled" for
summer campaign. Mr.. Lewis is
one Of our most enterprising citi-
Zens, and the people of HALEY are
pleased to see him prosper-Haflev

Thousands of people are signing pc

TONERS the crimes of murder and
attempted murder are graded in

THERE IS an indefinite runner
about town that there is to be no
railroad building in Utah this year,
the Edmunds bill having frightened

intention, and preparations were
making to that end, to extend three
of the railroads in the aggregate,
some hundreds of miles. If this
work shall stop it will prove a severe

SENATOR PENDLEToN has intro

SENATOR PENDLETON has intro
duced in the Senate proposed
constitutional amendment, provid-
ing for the election by the people, of
United States marshals, district at
torneys, postmasters, etc. It is too
much to expect the amendment will
be adopted, and especially at time
when the appointing power SC
largely influences national elections
The republican party could not
bring itself to the point Of sur
rendering the control Of the army
of one hundred thousand federal
officers who are bound by the obi
cations of stomach and back to
work for the success of the party
that feeds and clothes them. Never
theless, the thing should be done.
There is no reason why the people
should not have the privilege of
eIecting their marshals as well as
their sheriffs; their postmasters
as well as their justices
of the peace. Now these
officials are responsible only
to the appointing power, which is
not responsible to anybody. Be
sides, officials are not selected be-
cause of their fitness for the duties,
but by reason OF their influence
with politicians, which ought in
reality to be made a disqualification.
Among all the federal officials of
Utah, which one of them has the
slightest claim in the light Of right
or reason, upon the Office he holds !?
And who among them performs the
duties Of his Office with such ability,
faithfulness, fairness and so con-
scientlously as would man chosen
by the people? We do not look for
the adoption of Mr.. Pendleton's
amendment, but shall always be-
lieve the people should have the
privilege of electingal their officers.

-IN TEE united States at the pres

In THE United States at the pres
ent time, some thousands of work.
men are "out" on strikes. The
disease seems to have suddenly be-
come epidemic, affecting laborers
from Massachusetts, to Utah. Here
at home, the "strike" so lar is a
small affair; but there are intima-
tions and indications that its pro-
portions will increase. Certain
disconnected leaders are scheming
to that end. IG is not known what
are the prospects of success before
them. AS the friend to the working
men, the HERALD advises them
to 60 slow, and proceed eau
tiously. Whatever you do,
keep inside the law, AMI
while maintaining your own rights
be careful not to encroach upon the
rights of others. 1t is your right,
and the law will protect you in its
exercise, to get all the money posi-
BILE for your labor; but it is not your
right, and the law will punish you if
you attemptto exercise tito prevent
by threats or vic l9nce others working
for wages which you reject. It is
your right to employ argument and
persuasion to keep the places
vacated by you from being filled,
but it is not your right to use force.
AS yet Utah is a land Of law and
order, and we hope it will preserve
its reputation, despite Edmunds'
bill. The only really serious
labor strike that ever oc-
CURED in the territory was
that Of last year, when a lot of
miners at Silver Reef very foolishly
to defy the constituted
and to run things after |
their own fashion. The circum-
stance is fresh in the memories of |
our readers, hence it is needless to
'ay more than that the strikers
'ailed when they went beyond the
aw, and were made to suffer the
consequences, though, being the FIRST
'ffense, leniency was manifested.
t is hoped the present strike will
lot develop the proportions of the
'ilVer Reef affair, for as surely as 1t
oes the workmen will come out of
he "little end of the norm" as the
Seef miners did, losing thousands
f dollars and gaining no point in
be controversy.
