Boston merchants are rivallng one an
other in rather questionable advertising
devices. A clothier removed all the
goods from his show window, and put IN
their place a big, live monkey. For days
the sidewalk was blocked with specta-
tors, and policemen had to be detailed to
preserve order. The free menagerie be-
came such a nuisance that the Mayor,
deciding it to be in the nature OF a show,
suppressed it as a place of unlicensed
amusement. Another clothier turned
his windows, which were very spacious,
into o wax works exhibition SURPRISING
in horror the objects in the crypt OF the
Eden Musee. This drew immense multi
tudes, and, as some Of the exhibits were
decidedly Objectionable, the proprietor
achieved his object in being talked about
by the whole town. A third nan at
tracted attention more pleasantly. He
canverted the plate glass of his store
front into immense mirrors, in which
gazers simply saw themselves more or

THE MORMON BILLS.

Salt Lake Tribune: The Mormon
papers have had much fault to find with
the minority report of the House Com.
mittee on Territories on Representative
Cassidy's bill for a Legislative Commits
sion for Utah. And yet it is a very good
report. That, perhaps, is sufficient rea.
son for their raids upon it, according to
their usual custom. The minority do moi
consent to the substitution Of the no
account Alexander bill for the Cassidy
bill, as agreed on by the majority. They
give most excellent reasons, too, why M
such substitution should be made. These
reasons are so pertinent, and show such
comprehensive knowledge of the subject
that it is a matter of establishment how
the majority, in the face of them, could
take the action they did. Certainly il
was not because they had any reason tc
suppose the measure they were recon
mending was in any respect a fit substi
tute for the bill they were rejecting
The majority gave no reasons at all TO
their action, and they show at q very
decided disadvantage when compared
with the minority.
