Secretary Teller was talked to rela-
tive to the reports from Washington
touching upon his appointment as
governor. of Dakota. lie says all he
knows about the matter is what he has
seen in the papers. He expresses no
desire for promotion and GEMS to be
entirely u~nconcerned regarding the pos
sible bestoWal Of further honors. As
he was appointed secretary Of Dakota
without his solicitation and without
his knowledge it is not unreasonable to
suppose that he may be elevated to the
highest place in the territory without
being consulted. His promotion would
be generally endorsed by the people if
it should occur.-P. s. d.

SALT LAKE DAILY HERALD,

a position to give to the young men
an opportunity to test their skill in
some of the practical walks in life.
There is no regular boarding
school for the students. They live
with the good people of Provo, and
are distributed among seventy-one
different houses; no boys are being
allowed where girls are kept. This
secures a greater possibility for the
concentration of the students mind
on the duty for which he is sent.
Over each number of students at
any house is placed one of the party
as a senior, who acts as a monitor,
and who is bound to report all viola
tions of the rules. There is also a
junior who shares the duties of the
senior. 1t is by thi, means that the
behavior of each student is made
known to the faculty, and by this
also that time is secured for studies,
which the students absolutely re-
quire. The Academy is run on the
principle that students are sent
there to learn as well as to be
taught; and the faculty is deter
mined that if students do not learn,
the fault cannot be ascribed to the
institution.
The B. Y. Academy is a great
help to Provo. OF the total mum,
Der of students attending-375-
only seYenty-four are from Provo.
This gives to Provo practically 800
students, whose board averages from
So so to 81 per week, while their
incidental expenditures will swell
the amount to about SIS each per
week. There are ten weeks in a
term, and four terms in the acad-
emic year, making, Independent of
the tuition fee, 5000 per year to
student, or 100000 year as the
revenue from the students to Provo
through the academy. This esti-
mate is probably a trifie high, but
the minimum cannot be under $780,
600, while the tuition fees, etc., will
swell the aggregate to 100000 per
year. And this Is quite an industry,
and great blessing to the good peO-
pie there, as the money nearly
always goes where it is most needed.
L could cay much more; that it is
making mOney-something rare for
a schoOl-that it employs teachers at
good, honest salaries; that its influ>
ence is for good and widespread,
ETC.; but l will not. 1t is good in
stitution, should be encouraged, is a
credit to the man after whom it is
named, and Provo can afford to be
proud of it. r. w.

How ToOmbs Carried the Vote.

Col. Nat Hammond said the other
day: 1.-THE most opposite help ever
given one speaker by another was given
to me by Judge Lawson Black, during
the convention of 1868. 1 was oppos-
ing granting the Legislature certain
powers and extravagantly exclaimed,
Suppose the very day this came up the
Legislature should be drunk?' An op-
ponent asked, Can the gentleman con-
ceive of such thing happening?' AS
quick as thought Judge Black arose
and stated that such thing not only
could happen, but actually did happen,
and that he was in the Legislature when
it occurred.
"He then explained that before the
war, when the Trezevant claim was be-
fore the House, the lobbyists for the
claim had given big wine supper, at
which the whole House was present.
They had imbibed very freely and were
all drunk. General Toombs opposed
the claim. At the night session the
vote was taken, and the House roared
yes General Toombs almost alone,
voted NO He was shrewd enough,
however, to call Division Those in
favor of the motion will rise,' called
the Speaker. A full half minute was
given. Not man on the affirmative
was able to rise to the division. Gen
eral Toombs did arise when the mega
tive was called, and defeated the claim
by one to nothing. ."-Atlaaata Constitu-
