the department officials VIII not d.
so. The collector Of an Illinois rev
enue district died and three Repub.
lican Representatives united in
recommending a certain man fol
the vacancy, while Senator>elect
Cullom asked that one of the men
who helped him into the Senate be
appointed. The Senator won, 1t
being decided by the President
or somebody else that the patronage
pertaining to internal revenue ap-
pointments belongs to Senators and
not Represe natives. By what
course of reasoning this conclusion
was arrived at is not made clear.
If the civil service law means any
thing it is that patronage has moth.
ing to do with appointments. The
aim Of the law was safely towards
the disassociation of patronage and
appointments in the interest of re-
form.

aids enormous edition will be in
creased fully third. If the re-
markable increase in the sale oil
these papers had reduced the CIR.
culation of the World and Sun
which were already two cent sheets
| the reduction in price would only
prove that the Herald, Times and
Tribune were the better papers; but
it is a fact that the World circulation
rapidly grows all the time and has
shown no falling off since the
other great dailles dropped down to
its price. The Sun says that since
its contemporaries have reduced, it
has lost 1000 copies daily, which is
| a small matter with an edition of
100000. Besides, the Sun shows by
figures that for several years past
there has invariably been falling
off in it's circulation between Aug
ust and December, hence the 1000
loss within the last six weeks can
not be attributed to the reduction
of the other papers. The Times,
Tribune and Herald have gained
perhaps ten times as many as the
San has lost. The explanation is
simply this, there are more buyers
and readers of papers at two cents
than there were at four; some who
before bought but one paper,now buy
two, and many who regarded the
four cent sheets as too expensive
can now afford to take them and are
becoming familiar with excellent
journals that formerly were beyond
their reach. Because one paper
grows in circulation it does not fol-
low that another must fall off cor
respondingly. This fact has been
demonstrated many times in Salt
Lake. Since THE HERALD was
started dozen or more dailies have
sprung into life in this city, and
every one of them for time had
more or less readers. Some of them |
won fair degree Of popularity and
showed good signs of permanency; |
but in no instance has the circula-
lion of other papers interfered in
,he slightest degree with either the
lists or street sales Of
THE HERALD. Our circulation has
crown from the first, and instead of
I'D readers deserving. it has seemed
hat when efforts have been made
O increase the editions of new
'apers, that of our own has grown
more rapidly than during other

SALT LAKE THEATRE GoERs

The discriminating tastes of com
munities differ widely as to many
matters, but in few things more
than in theatrical performances
This fact is being. forcibly Illus
Eated just now. Early in the
month the famous playwright and
actor, Dion Boucicault, fulfilled an
engagement at the Salt Lake the
atre, producing his best plays. His
first audience was large and intelli-
gent, but the after dance on succeed
ing evenings was barely. enough 10
pay expenses. The reason for this
falling off was the fact that the
company lacked both talent and
training, the members being of
about the average grade of "supers."
The really good plays were, in
theatrical parlance, I'm ordered" by
a lot Of muffs who had no business
with the. respective parts. There
was a quite general condemnation
of Mr.. Boucicault for injuring his
reputation as an actor and author,
by travelling about the country with
q third-rate, cheap company. This
was Salt Lakes verdict, and 1t exe-
euted its judgment by letting the
gentleman alone. Mr.. Boucicault
is now in San Francisco, playing the
same pieces that he produced here,
and with the same people: and'
strange as it may appear, his en-
gagemens there is in the nature of
an ovation. The house is crowded
nightly. and the public and
press are alike enthusiastic in |
praise of pieces and players. The
author is gathering much money
and adding greatly to his honcrs,
Can it be that the Salt Lake thea>
sreegosrs are SO ignorant that they
cannot, tell good acting when. they |
witness it? Or is it true that their |
education in the art Of dramatic
criticism Is superior to that OF their
San Francisco neighbors? We are
inclined 10 believe that Salt Lakers
are severer critics than the people
of any other western city. They
have been trained in a good
school, the theatre having been an
institution of the town almost from
the first, and the most talented ar
lists in the dramatic profession have
played here. Actors who think
because this in an interior town
they can safely slight it, discover
the error when the people manifest
their intelligence and resentment
by refusing patronage to second
class performance.

CHEAP NEWSPAPERS.

The reductions in the prices of
newspapers that have been made In
New York lately, furnish some In .
tsresting facts for both the public
and the publishers. The most i'm
portant demonstration by the re-
duction is that the former prices
were too high-not higher than the
masses were willing to pay, but
more than they could pay. Two
cents is small sum. To rs in the
west, who until very late years
knew only by rumor that there
existed circulating coin of
lower denomination than a "quart-
err" and that something
could actually be bought for
it, two cents seems too
small to talk about; but in the east
it is part of dollar and is therefore
to be taken into account in financial
transactions. The New York Times
was the first to reduce its price,
putting it down from four to two
cents, and it is authoritatively as
serted that its edition has more
than doubled in consequence. The
Tribune dropped only one cent, from
four to three, and while its clrcuiae
ton has not increased anything like
that of the Times, it has certainly
grown. The Herald went down to
two cents, and its mammoth edi-
ton would have heen greatly en-
larged had not an outside matter
entered into the business. The
newsdealers made war upon the
Herald, refusing to sell it for two
cents, and doing all in their power
to prevent the sale Of the paper.
The fight between the newsmen and
Bennett will soon end in a complete
victory for the latter. when it may
be accepted as fact that the Her.

Brooklyn presents a powerful

time an inmate of the House of Re-

Presbyterians, a class of people

they were regular attendants at

from their correct and virtuous
habits ann took to drink. The boy
used to fetch the beer from the
saloon, and by surreptitious
sips, soon acquired a taste
for the beverage. he was not long
in his progress to stronger drinks,
and two years ago was sent to the
House of Refuge confirmed drunk
ard. Eight months later he was
discharged as cured, though at first
it was difficult to save his life. He
was not long in falling into his old
habits, and only two months ago was
a second time released from the re-
formatory. Since then he has not
seen a sober day until last week,
when he was returned to the Refuge
a hopeless and half dead inebriate.
When arrested his father was lying
at their miserable home suffering
from stabs inflicted by his drunken
wife. No more painful picture can
be drawn than this once happy
household so completely and terri
bly, wrecked by the dread enemy to
mankind. And yet it is
what may come to any fam
lily that permits the tempter
to enter. The child is more to be
pitied than his parents, for they not
