IT Is said that the proprietor of one OF
the houses of prostitution in this city is
so thorough-going and business-like in
the management and conduct of her es-
Enlistment, that she keeps set of gen.
eral books, embracing the accounts of
inmates and customers. Now, her bus
mess is unlawful, and those who visit
her place violate the Edmunds law.
Perhaps this is all we should say of the
matter. Our only object was to inform
the Investigators and officials who are
so anxious to obtain books and records
with which to convict violators of that
law, that there may be way for graft
flying themselves.

THE METHODS WRONG.

It Is well understood there are many
polygamists in this community; it is
well known there are many such; who
these are is equally well known by Nor
mons and Gentiles. For twenty-five
wears there has been in the statute books
of the United States a law declaring
polygamy an ofense punishable by fine
and Imprisonment; two years ago that
law was amplifed, broadened and made
stronger and more sweeping in its
character. During all these years, nearly
quarter of century, the courts and
the administration of the law have been
in the hands Of the general government,
which has also held the executive
authority of the Territory, and exer-
cised legislative functions; the bench
has been occupied by judges selected
with special reference to their supposed
qualifications for dealing severely with
those who violate the anti-polygamy
law; prosecuting attorneys and mar
sbaIs have been sent here as much on
account of their anti-Mormon senti-
ments as their political princi-
pies. 1t would thus seem that
with every advantage, with the
Law, the power and the inclination, the
government would be able to exhibit
results And it can-one man con-
Yicted, fined, and made to serve q term
of Imprisonment, and all chiefly
through his own confession. There are
other results; they are seen in innumer-
able prosecutions, covering the entire
period of the laws existence; in re-
versed opinions, Inundated courts and
government defeats.
There is an explanation for this state
of things, but those who should be most
interested in learning what that explain
alton is, seem stubborn in refusing the
information. The reason for these
twenty-five years of failures cannot be
found in want of law or in lack of
authority to enforce the statutes.
There has ever been an abundance of
both. The explanation of the de-
feats may be traced directly to
the ignorance of one class of
those commissioned with the duty of
applying the law, and the overpoweripg
zeal on the part of another class. #
would be difficult to say which of the
two is the more responsible. One thing
however, is quite plain to all excent
these classes themselves-them methods Of
neither never have and never will lead 70
the end aimed at, but always fall short .
Government needs no more laws on this
matter than already exist whatever
acts may be provided will accomplish no
more than these statutes are capable of.
1t is not question to be discussed here
whether the aims and purposes of the
government regarding Utah and the I
majority of her people will be achieved
and accomplished under any circum- |
stances, but this much is true-no last a
ing progress will be made so long as the G
policy that has been and is being pur- d
sued shall continue. Whatever differ /
ent course would result in, this one will a
be as it has been, barren of results. v

THAT MORMON ooNrRrBur1oN

On the 18th instant telegram from
New York was published, stating that
the National Republican committee
had received reliable information to the
effect that the Mormon Church had
contributed one-tenth OF the church
tithes to the National Democratic com
mittee to be used in aiding the election
of Cleveland, etc. The local papers in a
position to know the facts, promptly
and emphatically denied the story s
telegram was also sent to the Associated
Press, in which Presidents Taylor and
Cannon were represented as saying
there was no foundation for the Islander.
On the 18th, the following telegram was
forwarded to B. F. Jones, chairman of
the National Republican committee,
New York, and copy of the same SEM

Mr.. Cartoons remark in this city
that he expected to make money in San
Francisco, is being borne out by the re-
suits. They opened at the Bush street
theatre on Monday last to packed
audience, and the Chronicle says that
the only fault of the performance was in
the great numbers of its encores. Mrs
Wiley was also enthusiastically received.
Clark, the bass, and Golden, the come
dian, came in for favorable mention.
and the star of course received his reg
ulation welcome. Everyone will be glad
to know that Carleton calls here for two
or three nights on his return trip.

AT SANDY Hook, recently, Keely, the
motor man, gave an exhibition. of the
new force which he has been claiming
so long his ability to harness. Some of
the newspaper accounts of the expert
ments were glowing in praises of the
power, but now comes the Scientific
american, an authority on questions of
physics, with the declaration that moth
ing new was shown by Keely. 1t says
the "etheric vapor" which the inventor
employed was all stuff. Says the jour
nal mentioned: eve saw nothing done
by the Keely Vaporic gun which can
not be duplicated by the aid of COM
pressed air." The american explains
that Kelly brought to the ground
small air gun, with a cylinder charged
with compressed air. The cylinder
was connected by small pipe with
the breech of the gun; thin discs of
hard and soft rubber formed q parti-
ton between the breech air chamber
and the bullet. The performance con-
sisted first in the turning of the air
faucet by Kelly, then while the air was
flowing through the small pipe into the
air chamber, he struck on the rear part
of the gun with a mallet, by which he
pretented to vibrate the "etheric vapor."
By the time he got through with this
''juggle" the air pressure had accumu-
lated behind the discs sufficiently to |
burst them and the bullet was driven
out Kelly then turned off the air and |
another charge. BY varying
the thickness of the discs the velocity of !
the bullets could be increased or dimin-
ished, to suit the creduhty of the spec
tators. The explanation. borne out as
it is by the accompanying illustrations,
looks plausible, and it is clear that
Kelly must do greater things before he
can convince the Scientific american that
there is any substantial merit in his

DRAMATIC AND LYRIC.
Financial Outcome of Miss
Eytinge'S Engagement.
A TEN DAYS CONFERENCE
a Bad Wesk-The misunderstanding
Between Mcguire and SearIe-
Sophie Eyre's Dresses-CarIe-
toms Company-G eneral.

1t is regretable circumstance that
Miss Rose Eytinge, an actress SO favor
ably remembered by Salt Lake audi
ences, should leave US this morning
with so few reasons to make her wish TO
return. The engagement of the past six
nights hac been a very disastrous one,
both to the star and to the house. The
matinee, yesterday, was the only audi
ence drawn during the week of at all
respectable dimensions, and even that
would only be counted as mediocre
under other circumstances.
We do not know that the meagre
business done by Miss Eytinge's COM
pany can be attributed to anything but
the dizziness of the times. A star of ma
tional reputation, with a company up
to the average, and perhaps a little
above it Though not by any means a
company of stars" as an editorial in
the Salt Lake Tribune has it, with an aG-
vance agent who knows all the details
of his business, there can be no other
reason chargeable for the failure than
the strIngency of money matters. Garlic
ton, with his celebrated name, with q
support really entitled to be called
stars, and in form of entertainment
never known to do anything but
rushing business in Salt Lake-only
played what might be termed fair en-
gagement, and he had Conference dates
at that. The times are out of Joint, and
the theatrical times more than any
other.
If report speaks truly, Mr.. Cyril Searle,
manager and husband of Miss Eytinge.
will not be inclined to take this philo-
sophical view of his losses. 1t came to
a HERALD reporter from one of the COM
pany that Mr.. Searle had been induced
TO remain here for a week by reason of
the fact that Mr.. Mcclure had repre-
sented to him that Conference began
on October 9th and lasted ten
days. Mr.. Searle was spoken to
yesterday about the report, but he
stated that be was not DESTROYS of going
into print about it, at least until he had
met Mr.. Mcguire personally. ut is |
true, said he; "that l supposed I was
coming to Salt Lake during Conference
week, or on no other consideration |
would have consented to remain for |
20 long stand. 1t is equally true that |
was given to understand that Confer |
'nce commenced on the 9th and con- |
lnued ten days. However, it may all |
lave been the result of a misunderstood |

bout it until have seen Mr.. Mcguire

It would have been an act of simple

the first story, and of the Associated
Press which eagerly circulated the lie,
to give the above as wide circulation as

the idea of justice or fairness seems

White Sulphur Springs Association is
making serious mistake in holding its
town lots at the price it does. There is a
brisk demand for lots. and buyers. owing to

the addition. Several thousand dollars have
been thus Invested since the leaves turned
yellow, and many thousand more will be in
vested before spring opens. 1t may be to
the interest of the Springs Association to
have the suburbs of town build up first. but
we don't think so. Its ground, to be sure,
is nearest the springs and is worth a little
more on that account, but we find that
those who are building will not pay double
for it that other ground can be had for. L
the Association would look at the matter
properly, it would see that it was to its ad
vantage to build up its own town instead o
that of its neighbors; and glance at thu
situation will convince any one Of the cor
rectness of this hypothesis.
