A Reply to Mr.. Ellerbeck.
SALT LAKE CITY, June s, 1SE

SALT LAKE CITY, June 8, 1889.
EDITOR DEMOCRAT: Will you please
insert this article in your paper in refuta-
ton of an article published in this morn
ing's Herald?
Mr.. Ellerbeck in that article says, or
infers, that the members of the Salt Lake
City Fire Department are both incompe-
tent and imbecile. Past experience
proves that they are neither one nor the
other, as the fire record of this city will
prove that they are as efficient as any de-
partment of similar organization in the
United States.
In the second part of his article, he
states some glaring untruths, such as
that when the firemen arrived at the fire
it was but very small affair. perhaps
it would require the whole city to burn
down to be a fire of any mag
nitude in the estimation of so
great a man. The facts are that the
fire must have been burning for half an
hour before the alarm was given, as not
only the candy store was in flames, but
Rumell's and George A. Meears' places
were mass of flames above the ceilings.
The places having iron roofs, made it
almost impossible to get at the fire. In
the latter part of his article he sayS; that
many of the crowd who were there said
that a man with a bucket of water could
have put the fire out, and he says it was
just about true. Why did not Mr.. Eller-
beck, or one of that crowd, take bucket
of water and put it out?
Many of his statements, as published,
are untrue, as can be proved by compe-
tent witnesses. Respectfully,
JABEZ w. TAYLOR.

Thought 1t Time to "Call a Halt"

Mr. R. Warnock, the implement dealer,
this afternoon started on short rusticating
trip into the country. He took as q means
of conveyance span of large horses and
wagon loaded with what looked like a
big stock of provisions. He managed to
get as far as the City Hall, when his team
thought it was time to "call halt and
they accordingly stopped, seemingly
"never to go again. All sorts OF per
suasives were resorted to, and a whole
lot of advice was offered by the big
crowd that gathered, but the horses re-
manned where the "halt was called. e"
Finally Mr.. Warnock got a man to hitch
on ahead of his team, which then disgust
ed the crowd by prancing off as though
they had been hitched to a buggy.

Protect Your Family.

1t is the duty Of every man, rich or
poor, who has created a home, to make
some provisions against the inevitable,

A Lively Row,

Last night about II o'clock soldier
named Murphy called at rendezvous in
a secluded part of town, and while in the
company of a mixed party of whites and
blacks a fuss was started and one old gen.
tleman got badly bruised about the head.
Officer Malin went in search of the bellig-
ent, whoupon seeing the policeman asked
if he was the man wanted, at the same
timeipresenting revolver, but, as he says,
not until the officer had discharged his
pop unintentionally or on purpose. The
case came up this afternoon.

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

DIR. 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 Ala,
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. DR.. Foote is
successfully treating all forms of chronic
diseases, a speciality to which he has de-
voted thirty years OF study and practice.
Evidences of his success can also be had
by addressing Box Ala, as above, but all
letters of consultation and orders for
remedies should be addressed to DR.. E.
B. Foote, ST., 12O Lexington Avenue,
New York City, N. Y. Consultation free.
An advertisement of DIR. Foote, ST., in
another place deserves attention.

TRUE CHARITY.

Night kissed the young rose, and
it went softly to sleep. Stars shone,
and pure dew drops hung upon its
bosom to watch in sweet slumbers.
Morning came. with its dancing
breeze they whispered to the young
rose, and it awoke, joyous and smil-
ing lightly dancing to and fro in all
the lovliness Of youth and innocence.
Then came the ardent sun-god sweep
ing from the East, and smote the
young rose with his scorching rays,
and it tainted. Deserted and almost
broken-hearted it dropt to the dust
in loyeliness and despair Now,
the gentle breeze which had been
gamboling over the sea, pushing on
the home-bound bark, sweeping over
hill and dale, by the neat cottage,
and the still brook, turning the old
mill, tanning the brow of disease, and
frisking the curls of innocent child
hood-came tripping along on her err
rand Of mercy, and when she saw the
young rose, she fastened to kiss it,
and fondly bathed its forehead in
cool, refreshing showers, the young
rose revived, looked up and smiled in
gratitude to the breeze F.; but she hur-
ried quickly away; her generous task
was performed, yet not without re-
ward for she soon perceived that a
delicious fragrance had been poured
on her wings by the grateful rose
the kind breeze was glad in heart,
and went away singing through the
trees. Thus, true charity, Ike the
breeze, gets the fragrance from the
dropping flowers she refreshes, and
unconsciously reaps a reward in the
performance of her offices of kindness,
which steals on the heart like a rich
perfume, to bless and cheer.

A SLICK SMINDLER.

Four years ago a man giving his
name as L. W. Scott, and purporting
to be at the head of big firm of that
name in Ranta Rosa, Cal, appeared
in San Francisco. He visited all The
large jewelry establishments, looked
at a vastamount of fine iewelry, and
requested the jewelers. to lay it aside
for him. He then went to SAINT RO-
sa, procured some of the letter heads
OF SCOTS firm and wrote them to send
on the goods. He calculated the time
his letters would reach the jewellers,
and before they could return answers
to the genuine, Scott telegraphed each
one that he had changed his plans and
would call for his goods in person the
next day. This satisfied the jewelers.
that they were dealing with respon-
sible party, and when he presented
forged checks on the house of Scott
they were honored, and the shrewd
swindler got off with over 100000
worth of jewelry. This game he has
been playing since all over the coun-
try.

WILL-POwER A YOUNG MANS For
tune.-President Gates, of Rutgers
College, says: every young man
has fortune in the fact of his youth
The energy of youth is unblur ted by
defeat, or worn by hope deferred.
With age one becomes more conserv-
atiye and looks at as impossible what
a younger person would endeavor to
accomplish, in many cases with sue
cess. The effort, even if there be a
failure, is grand success. Self-con-
fidence, or self-conceit, if you wish to
call it so, is a great thing. A young
mans fortune is not to be found in
inherited wealth or social position.
Every man is the arbiter of his own
fortune. Gracious manners or bust
ness habits are good things to cult
vate, but are not all. Will-power is
the young mans fortune. 1t is the
essence Of the man. A young man
with only little will-power is a fore
gone failure. 1t should be cultiva-
ted. Genius is a gift of God and
should not cause pride, but an honest
pursuit of duties is an exhibition of
will-pOwer and is something to be
of. Well-directed, educated will
power is what a young man needs"

HORRIBLE DEATH.

A subscriber at Mars Hill sends
the Dalton Argus an account of the
death Of Lafayette Fox, tenant on
the plantation Of Maj. Pitner, from
hydrophobia, on March 81. The lat
ter part Of January he was bitten on
the hand by his dog while claiming
him. The wound healed and was for
gotten. Tuesday Of last week Sc
we're pain commenced in the hand,
passing through the arm to the body.
He then became quite sick, growing
rapidly worse, with every symptom
of the malady. Friday night violent
spasms followed, his family being
forced to avoid him in his fearful
rawlings. He was finally got to bed,
and had to be held there. He pass
ed through all the horrible imagina-
tons characteristic of the distemper,
believing that he was being torn to
pieces, that his children were being
murdered, that water was being pump
ed on him. He would shudder at the
sight of water and plead for his life.
On Saturday he continued to grow
worse, and by evening had to be tied
down. At 8 o'clock death relieved
his tortures.

A Texas paper says: 1t is notice
able that among the Texas applicants
for office a considerable proportion are
newspaper men. A member, com
menting on this, remarked to-day that
the claims of the editors were emin-
emily just and should in all cases have
earnest consideration. "There are
none," said he, "who render more
valuable service to the party and re-
ceiye less compensation for the work
they do than the newspaper editors"
This is true, and nobody has better
reason to know it than congressman.
They owe their promotion to the
press and in a majority Of cases the
service rendered them by the editors
are entirely voluntary and gratuit-

MARIETTA, GA, THURSDAY MORNING, APRIL g. 1885,
POINTS FOR REFLECTION.

-Four causes account for most of
the prevailing poverty and degrade
ton. They are drunkenness, ignor-
ance, laziness, and pride. Only a
small percentage of trouble comes
from illness and misfortune, and nine
tenths of our poverty and misery are
the results of intemperance. Igno-
rance is also set down as the cause of
much misery, and the fact is self-eyi-
dent that laziness means idleness and
idleness means neglect of wife and
children. Another potential cause
of poverty deserves place in the list,
and that is the widespread and ruin
Gus sin Of improyidence. With the
exception Of intemperance the i'm
providence of the masses of the peo-
pie is the cause of more poverty and
suffering than anything else. The
people who work for wages and sala-
ries do not, as rule, lay anything by
for old age and sickness. Too much
is wasted, and too much is spent for
show. There is too much reckless
ness of expenditure among people of
small means and the hand to mouth
way Of living is altogether too com
mon. A man may be competent, in
dustrious, honest, and temperate, but
if he habitually lives up to the very
last cent of his income, or little be-
yond it, he and those dependent up
on him are absolutely certain to come
to grief.
