the South. The process of man.
ufacture consists in extracting the
oil from the pine wood and is said
to be simple and cheap. 1t can not
be questioned that the enterprise
will he very profitable, aud many of
those who are giving this matter
their attention are the wealtbiest
and most enterprising citizens of
the country, and are men who are
capable of seeing and knowing a

THE MILITARY FOOLISH
NESS.

Just now, military circles in this
State are convulsed with excite
ment over the war between General
Laughton and General Parker.
Laughton, who ranks Parker in
command, has dismissed him from
the service and Parker refuses to
be dismissed. The great question
of whether Parker is an Adjutant
General or ever was one at all, Or
has ceased recently to be one, is
now causing a profound sensation
in military circles Of Nevada.
The APPEAL knows nothing
about the military rules On the sub
ject, or the military etiquette; but
looks upon the manner in which
military matters are run in Nevada,
as enough to make them the laugh
ing stock of the State.
Nearly two years ago there was a
row between General Adams and
General Foreman, and the pros
and cons of the matter are still be-
ing discussed. California has a
similar military organization, and
when you take away the strut and
glitter, and tinsel, and yellow
sashes wound round the stomachs
of the Generals, there is nothing
substantial left of the business
which a man of ordinary sense
could find any nutriment in.
All this thing appeals to the
vain side OF a mans nature; and
promotions, appointments and the
like in this State haye been gen.
orally so mixed up with politics,
that any good which might acrue
has been lost. There is certain
class of men who deem an appoint
ment on a staff, or the rank of a
Colonel given them, elevates them
Just so much in the minds of their
fellow men. They never stop to
think that these appointments are
simply a cheap bid for political
support. Adams has worked this
thing for all it is worth, but during
his term as Adjutant General
while Lieutenant Governor, we
have never seen a single report or
anything like it, to show what be-
came of the arms of the State,
which passed through his hands.
1t may be that all these guns can
be accounted for according to law,
and if so, a report ought to be
made that people may know some
thing about it.
The only commendable thing
about the military organization OF
this State is its rifle teams, which
are the most proficient in the
United States, and there, as usual,
the real credit falls upon the pri-
Yates in the ranks, where it be-
longs.

Salt Lake evening Democrat. [volume] (Salt Lake City, Utah) 1885-1887, 1885-12-12
SOMEWHAT STRONG.
The Omaha Herald of the 9th inst. has
these comments on the Utah question:

GlleSe CouiuciitS Ol Tile y Gdl qUtStlOu.
Fuller advices from Salt Lake City lend a
somewhat different aspect to the alleged dis
turbances or threatened disturbances. The
Herald's correspondent, a reliable resident
of Salt Lake City, discredits any disposition
on the part of the Mormons to conspire
against the public peace, and attributes the
''scare" to ''carpet-bag clap-trap," designed
by the Republican Federal officials, who
pose as vigorous opponents of the law and
hope to thereby secure themselves in their
sinecures. There is doubtless considerable
ground for the Herald correspondents as
sertion. 1t is within the knowledge of this
paper that number of the Republican
officials of Utah are anxious to retain their
positions, the Commissioners especially, in
order to make party capital out of the exc
cution of the Edmunds law. If this scare is
a bit of political melodrama the event
should be made the occasion for sweeping
change in the Territorial and other Federal
appointments.
The other fact remains, though, that
President Cleveland is fully resolved that
the law shall be enforced. The declarations
of his message cannot be mistaken, and the
people of Utah should understand the facts
fully and be prepared to acquiesce. Whether
the Presidents utterances will temporarily
intensity the bitter feeling which the en-
forcement of the law has aroused in the po-
lygamists or not remains to be seen. The
Herald hopes that the good sense and best
judgment of the wiser Mormons will prevail
and that no trouble will occur.
Meanwhile until some overt act trans
plres it will be well to discount all the SEN
sational stories of the correspondents-th
wars and rumors of wars. Peace prevails in
the beautiful capital of Utah, and there is
no indication that the serenity of the situa-
tion will be disturbed.

A Fatal Railroad Accident.

Yesterday morning sad accident hap
pened OH the Utah & Northern Railroad
by which one man was killed and several
others were more or less injured. The
disaster took place about twenty miles
north of Eagle Rock, Idaho, and was
caused by a broken rail. The train was
running along at the usual rate, and was
made up of an engine, baggage,
mail and smoking cars, a sleeper.
regular passenger coach, and Pull
man. -Four of these, the Pullman.
smoker, baggage and passenger, were
all thrown from the track and fell a dis
tance of nine or ten feet down an en-
bankment. At the time-5 o'clock a. m.
the passengers were sleeping, and the
sudden and rough manner in which they
were awakened from their slumber and
dreams caused considerable confusion
end fright. A man by the name of Pal
mer. said to be from Logan, was killed.
and some eight or nine others badly in
Jured. Among these were gentleman
and his wife, and two children, on their
way to Denver, and three Cinnamon

Lost Mines,

An old miner says that the existence of
rich placers on the watershed of the
Green, Wind and Snake rivers has been
known from very early days. Until the
late discovery by the Oregon prospectors.
the location of the placers had been
shrouded in mystery. In one of the
early 5O's late in the fall, there came to
st. Mary's station, on the old Ben Holli-
days overland route, an unkempt and
grlmy miner bearing on his back large
sack of gold dust and nuggets. He said
he had been at work all summer on the
big watershed, but would not give anv
certain information. He and his precious
sack at once departed for the east. Early
In the succeeding spring he appeared once
more at st. Mary's accompanied bv two
companions and good mining outfit.
The three men at once struck out straight
for the big divide, and were never heard
OF afterwards. Whether they were killed
by the indians, or made their pile and
went out by the other slope, is still an
open question. 1t was lately ;lscertained
that men have been working secret pla-
GERS In the mountain recesses of the Teton
basin all summer. Nothing definite has
been learned of the character of the pla-
GERS. but the stealthy workings and the
'lme consumed leads to the supposition
of rich diggings.--Butte Torn Talk.
