HIS MAIN IDEA.

The "Kickers" who are finding fault
because President Cleveland does not
make the "clean sweep" in the offices
that they think he should ought to have
done their complaining in the Chicago
convention and at the polls. The char
acter of the man was well known before
the convention, and there was no
reason to suppose that he would change
any when he went into the White
House. The Hew York Nation illus
trates the character of Cleveland by
recalling his early career as Governor
of the Empire State. When he entered
the latter Office the Democratic poll
ticians and workers crowded down
upon him, and kindly pointed out for
him the men who should be appointed
10 the various offices. The Gov
ernoT listened patiently, and the
politicians went away. saying they had
fixed it all right with the Governor,
and 1t was all right" When the Gov
ernor made his appointments and the
politicians saw the names. they said,
: These are not the men we recon-
mended." Noneof the seekers had ever
heard of the officers. but every appoint
ment was admirable, the civil service
being the best that the State had seen in
modern times. And this is how things are
going now, displeasing as it is to the
,nanipulators. With Mr.. Cleveland. the
idea is the best good to the country,
without regard to men. The service is
what he wants to improve, whether or
not the politicians draw fat salaries.

THE EPISTLE.

The epistle of President John Taylor
and George Q. Cannon, to the Latter
day Saints, which was read at the Con-
ference in Logan on Monday, and which
appears in full in this issue of The
HERALD, is a peculiarly strong docu-
-.nent and should command the atten-
ton of the nation It clearly and au-
thoritatiyely sets forth the views OF the
Mormons as Church, on the present
course of the Federals officials in thisTer-
ritory, as well as emphasizes the strong
faith of the Saints in the religious right
fitness of their practice of the doctrine OF
polygamy. A strong point against
the necessity for. this wild, reckless raid,
looking at the matter through other
ewes than those OF religion or fanatl-
cism, is made in the showing that the
males practicing polygamy amount to
only per cent. Of the Church member
ship. It cannot surely seem night TO
anyone that the community should be
terrorized, and all be made to suffer for
the acts of the very few who are living
in violation of the law; nor does it
seem plain that the marriage
system of the Christian world
is seriously threatened, when
polygamy, after being openly preached
and practiced for nearly forty years,
and with SO pronounced an incentive to
its acceptance as command from the
Almighty, has won to its adoption SO
small percentage of those of the
people who believe it right in the sight
of God. and not improper or immoral.
The committee that was appointed by
the Conference to draft resolutions and
a protest to the President and the
nation, setting forth the condition OF
things here and asking for 'the same
treatment to which other citizens OF the
United States are entitled" is composed
of welI-known representative men,
selected from various parts of the Terri
tory. Their representation should have
the effect of bringing about halt IN
this mad raid which is bringing SO
much distress upon the community.
The prompt action of the committee will
be appreciated by all classes of people,
for all are suffering, though guilt is
charged against SO few.

The College hospital property was yester-
day sold by the sheriff at the court house
upon foreclosure OF a mortgage in accordance
with an order of the court in the suit of Re-
gina Jungerick VS.. DR.. F. A. Dunsmoor,
representing the College hospital, and E. A.
Merrill, trustee of the Manchester college
In October, 1881, DIR. Dunsmoor executed to
the trustees Of Manchester college a deed on
the property known as the Winslow house,
now occupied by the college, to
secure loan of $4,000, stipulation
being made that in case of failure to pay
taxes and insurance the mortgage should be
foreclosed. In June, 1884, the trustees of
Manchester college conveyed to Regina Jun
gerick the mortgage and entire property on
collateral security for the payment of a note
for S25, 900, due Jan. /, 1887. In No.
vember, 1884, default was made in the con-
dition of the mortgage, by the failure to keep
up the insurance policy. In accordance
with the agreement the principal was declared
due, and the sale accordingly took place
yesterday, the property being bid in by
Regina Jungerick for S34, PAS.

G. L., Carman, acting commissioner of the
Transcontinental association, has issued the
following:
Under agreement entered into between the
Pacific Coast and Transcontinental associations,
at Chicago, Dec. IS, 1884, it was agreed that the
proportion between st. Louis and Pacific coast
points via Kansas City be made II per cent to
the roads east of Kansas City and SO per cent.
west OF Kansas City; also providing that divis-
ions between ST, Louis and Pacific coast points,
via other routes than Kansas City, be as can be
arranged by the lines interested in said other
points.
As the percentages above referred to apply on
business between St. Louis and common points
and Pacific coast common points, and as the
question has arisen relative to percentages to be
allowed between Council Bluffs, Pacific junction,
junction City, st, Joseph or other Missouri
river points and st. Louis, on business passing
through those points, originating at or destined
to st. Louis and common points, this association
herewith gives formal notice that the percent
ages, as allowed under the agreement with the
Pacific Coast association, between st. Louis and
Kansas City, II per cent. of the gross through
rate, shall also apply between other Missouri
river points and st. Louis, as the necessity does
not exist for applying greater percentage on
business between ST. Louis and other Missouri
river points than Kansas City than now exists
between Kansas City and st. Louis. II lines de-
sire to carry business between California termi-
rails and St. Louis via other Missouri river points
than Kansas City this association will not accept
west of its Missouri river termlni less proper
ton than it now accepts business west of
Kansas City originating at or destined to st.
Louis or common points.
The above percentages to be held to apply on
both east and west bound business-on west
bound, effective from Jan l., 1885; on east
bound, from Feb. 90.

ANNUAL ECLIPSE OF THE SUN.


Method of Getting Correct Time for the
Railroads.
An annual eclipse of the sun takes place
March 10. The annulus describes a path
about seventy-ive miles in width, crossin 2
Montana, Idaho and the northwestern por-
ton of California, including all stations on
the Northern Pacific railway between Liv-
ingston and Closoil, inclusive; all stations on
the Utah Northern railway between Spring
Hill and Butte City, inclusive; Virginia City;
all stations on the Oregon Short Line
between Mountain Home and Poy-
cite, inclusive; all stations on the
Oregon division of the Central Pacific rail-
way between Red Bluff and Delta inclusive,
and on the proposed line of the road as far
north as Yreka. The Western Union will
send out signals on their wires as far west as
Helena, Boise City, Sacramento aud Delta,
thus atfording an opportunity to obtain the
correct time on that date. The signals to be
sent out are wholly automatic, and nsist of
short mol1es produced in an open telegraphic
circuit by the beats of mean time clock, the
pendulum closing the circuit at each beat.
The signals begin at II b., Sc M, 45 s., and
cease at II h., seventy-fifth meridian,
mean time. During that interval
there is a ''make' at ths begin
ming of every second, except that in
each minute the "makes'' corresponding to
the goth second, and to the 55th, 56th, 57th,
| 5Sth and 59th seconds are omitted. Thus,
! the first ''make'' after the pause Of five sec
| onds always marks the beginning of min
ute, and the first "make'' after the pause of
the second marks thirty seconds. In order
| to distinguish the last minute and give time
to manipulate switches to time-balls, control
clocks, etc, the ''makes" cease after Ii h..
| SO m, so S. and until IL h., when there is a
single ''make" and the signals cease.
| When the signals are received at points
where the time of the ninetieth meridian is
used, they will give the time from IOh. som.
45s. to 11h., or just one hour earlier than
when representing seventy-fifth meridian
time; otherwise the signals will be read in
the manner above described. The seventy
fifth meridian time is SIN. 12.09s. earlier
than Washington time.
