The Inaugural Address.

FELLow-CITIZENs:-Inth the presence of this
vast assembly of my countrymen, I am
about to supplement and seal by the oath
which I shall take the manifestation of the
will of great and free people. In the exer-
else of their power and the right of self-gov-
ernment, they have committed to one of their
fellow-citizens a supreme and sacred trust;
and he here consecrates himself to their
service.
This impressive ceremony adds little to SOL
emnize the responsibility with which / con-
taRplate the duty owe to all the people of
the land; nothing can relieve me from anx-
iety lest by any act of mine their interests
may suffer, and nothing is needed to strength
en- my resolution to engage every faculty and
effort in the promotion Of their welfare.
Amid the din of party strife the peoples
choice was made; but its attendant circum-
stances have demonstrated a new strength
and the safety of government by the people.
In each succeeding year 1t more clearly ap-
pears that our democratic principle needs no
apology, and that in its fearless and faithful
application is TO be found the surest guaran-
tee of good government.
But the best results in the operation Of the
Government wherein every citizen has a
share largely depend upon the proper Hmi-
tation of purely partisan zeal and effort and
q correct appreciation of the time when the
heat of the partisan should be. merged into
the patriotism of the citizen. To-day, the
Executive branch of the Government is
transferred to new keeping. But this is still
the Government of all the people, anS it
should be none the less an object OF their nf-

The Farce of Prohibition

Inc Iowa retormers are learning that
1t VIII be necessary to ingraft the prohib-
ltory principle into the constitution of
the average Iowa man before it will be
generally effective. Migrating it into the
State constitution does not seem to do
the work. While no liquor is sold openly
as beverage, the increase of drug
stores and places where liquor is sold as
a medicine is marvellous. Over 1000
persons have paid the internal revenue
fee to the Federal government since the
law went into effect, the latter taxing
dealers just the same whether they sell
the article as beverage or az a medicine.
The peculiar feature of the Iowa form OF
disease requiring alcoholic treatment is
that 1t does not require the prescription
OF physician to procure the remedy.
Under decision OF the Supreme Court
OF the State every man has an inalien-
able right to be his own doctor and pre-
scribe for himself if he wants to. 1t is
scarcely necessary to add that the num-
Der OF Iowa men who think they know
what ails them and what is good for the
disease better than any doctor is very
large. The Iowa law requires the deal
ers to make monthly reports of their
sales. a small dealer in Muscatine finds
that it requires fifty-one feet of paper to
enumerate his sales for July. 1t took

DYNAMITE POWDER IN THE WEST
Annual Consumption OF Nearly
100000 POunds---A Eafse
I'm Price.

A DEMOCRAT reporter met Mr.. Julian
Sontag, of the Safety Nitro Powder Com
pany of San Francisco, this morning upon
his arrival in the city. In answer to
questions regarding the pool entered into
by all the large powder manufacturers OF
the United States, Mr.. Sontag said that
in the pool governing the sale of all pow
der sold west OF the Missouri river, en-
bracing what is known as the neutral
belt, covering the State OF Colorado and
the Territories of New Mexico, Utah and
Montana, the travelling statesmen have
been withdrawn, all companies being
under the direct control OF standing
committee of seven directors. located in
San Francisco.
Under the existing arrangements the
powder used in this section is only OBJ
tanned through local agents, comprising
the firms of Remington, Johnson & Co.
for the Safety Nitro, George NJ. Scott for
the Hercules, and Cunnington & Co. tor
the Giant. A new schedule of selling
prices for the neutral belt was adopted
August DIST, 1885, with raise of about
10 per cent in prices. Considerable feel
ing has been manifested on the part OF
the mining public on account of what
they term exorbitant prices, tut this raise
was not made with any view to Cypress
the mining interests, but was brought
about by reason of the increased cost of
nitre and glycerine, most of which is
imported, This readily shows the buyer
how the aise came about in Il . price +
dynamite powder. The price of nitre
has been increased at least SO per
cent within the past thirty days.
while the manufactures have increased
the price of powder but 10 per cent. The
sales are about the same as of the past
three years, although the lack of railroad
building has somewhat decreased the
consumption of the explosive.
About five million pounds OF dynamite
power are used annually west of the Mis-
souri, river. Mr.. Sontag will tarry among
his many Salt Lake acquaintance for
week, and then move forward to the
States.

That Timber Seizure.

The Ogden Herald OF the 4th instant
ignorantly criticises an article of the
DEMOCRAT regarding the Government
seizure of nearly million feet OF lumber.
The facts given in the DEMOCRAT were
authentic in every particular, and gave
no reason for an attempt at refutation.
In regard to Selling what belongs to the
government, no papers are neces-
sary, as has been stated, and all
such seizures will be disposed
of by the governments regular agents
unless otherwise guaranteed, as was done
by Mr.. David Eccles. The statement of
Mr.. s. Nelson, of Scofeld, in this morn
ing's Tribune, inferring that no due pro-
cess of law was adhered to, is emphat-
ically denied by the government officials
engaged in the work. 1t seems that some
persons will carry wrong idea in the
open face OF truth.

TROUBLE ON THE CARS.
One Lady accuses Another of the
Theft OF a Diamond BrOOch---
Searched. EXOnerated and
Apoi0giZed tn.

Last evenings Rio Grande passenger
train from the north brought to the city
three gentlemen and two ladies who were
considerably agitated on account of q
gentleman and his wife Of the number
charging a young lady with having
stolen a valuable diamond brooch. From
parties interested in the unpleasant affair
it was learned that this gentleman and
his wife, who lost the brooch, were en-
route from California to the East. At
Kelton young lady got on the Central
Pacific train to make visit to her parents
in Salt Lake. When between Kelton and
Ogden the married lady left the sleeper
and went forward to one Of the first-class
coaches. She then went to the breakfast
room, where she remained few minutes
and came rushing back to where the
young lady, gentleman acquaintance
and stranger sat conversing, and
charged one of the three with having her
brooch.
On arriving at Ogden an officer was
summoned to search the lady who was so
strongly accused by the married woman
of having her jewelry in her possession.
The officer refused to search her, and the
annoyed party came on to Salt Lake
where person can get searched at any
time OF the day or night
One of the accused got off the train
while the rest OF the party were held in
the car. Officer Calder was called and
escorted the five people to the ladies'
waiting-room in the D. & r. G., depot,
but declined to search the lady, handing
her over to her feminine accuser. The
Eastern lady made thorough examina-
ton, which disclosed no lost brooch.
A full realization of the injustice done
the young lady was felt, and most hearty
apologies were offered by the suspicious
party, who then burst into tears. She
explained that the brooch was a gift from
the dying hand OF an only sister, and it
was far more dear TO her than its real
intrinsic worth.
After every possible amend for the
breach had been made, the young lady
was freed from the humiliating position
she had been subjected to. The rest
of the party proceeded on their way with
the very kindest of feeling toward the
young woman, who was exonerated
from all suspicion by her own request to
be searched

ANTICS OF A CRAZY Drunk.
Keeping a Crowd Back for Half an
Hour. but Finally Escorted to
fine Cooler.

\ crowd OF more than three hundred
people were attracted at the corner OF the
Wasatch building this morning by the
wells and wild maneuvers of crazy
drunken man. He said his name was
Roger McCook, and that he had fought,
bled and died for the Stars and Stripes,
and was now ready to fight any ten men
who dared to even doubt his statement.
His left foot was off at the instep, and he
jumped around with a rude sort OF crutch.
After running against everyone in reach
with his insults and denunciations of
the governments treatment of the po-
lygamy question, he seemed to get frantic
and yelled the louder in the most vulgar
and blasphemous language, because no
one would oppose him. People kept
coming iii curiosity and leaving in disgust
for at least twenty minutes, during which
time policemen were telephoned for, but
none happened TO be within reach. After
the dangerous man had thrown his hat
in the air and planted his stump leg on
the sidewalk a few times with a ven
geance, he became wilder than ever,
and rushed in all directions among
the crowd, which was compelled to give
way or suffer blow from his crutch,
which he welded about him with the
strength and skill of a Feegee Islander.
Several persons were struck, but no one
felt at liberty to interfere with the loon,
until Sheriff Groesbeck rushed in and,
pinioning his arms, put him in a two
horse wagon with the assistance OF volun-
teers, and despite McCook's desperate
efforts to resist being carted away. He
was locked up in the city jail, where he
will be given ample time to collect his
senses Or go to the home provided for
such unfortunates.

How to Consult DIR. Foote, ST., by Mail


Dr. Foote, Senior, author of "Plain
Home Talk, Medical Common Sense, "
etc., ETC., would say to those who would
like to consult him by mail that they can
have list of questions and circular OF
gratuitous advice by addressing Box 4l4
Salt Lake City. The doctor has arranged
to have such information supplied in this
way to save time. Receiving such printed
matter the correspondent can describe
his or her case fully and direct it to the
doctor, in New York. DIR. Foote is
successfully treating all forms of chronic
diseases, a speciality to which he has de-
voted thirty years of stady and practice.
Evidences of his success can also be had
by addressing Box 414, as above, but all
letters of consultation and orders for
remedies should be addressed to DR.. f.
B. Foote, Sr., 120 Lexington Avenue,
New York City, N. Y. Consultation free.
An advertisement of Dr. Foote, ST., in
another place deserves attention.
