CIVIL SERVICE REFORM
is applied to Salt Lakes Free Delivery
SyStem-A Carriers Brief Career.

The Postofice Department, under
President Arthur's administration,
seems to have interpreted the civil. SER
vice act in most peculiarly peculiar
manner, and placed a Enthusiastically
Republican construction upon it, judging
from the course taken by the Washing
ton officials in the appointment of some
of the mail carriers for this city. When
a date was finally fixed upon at which
the free delivery system would go into
effect, number of persons applied for
positions as carriers. Among them was a
colored man by the name of Davis.
Davis had come to this city with letters
from influential officials in Washington,
who requested Postmaster Lynch
to give him some kind of
employment. Mr. Lynch could
find no vacancy for him until car
riers were wanted, when Davis sent in an
application for appointment, and this APP
plication was forwarded, with six others,
to Washington. Mr.. Lynch subsequently
received instructions from the First AS
sistant Postmaster-Generalt to substitute
the name of a Mr.. Sholes in the place of
any of the applicants, except one. That
one was Davis, and, as Mr.. Lynch had
before this become convinced that Davis
was wholly incompetent, he would have
substituted Sholes for the colored man
had it not been for the arbitrary nature of
his instructions. Davis is a very estim-
able fellow in his line, but it would be
difficult to tell just what great public SER
vice he had done to entitle him to ap-
pointment to public position that he was
wholly incompetent to fill 1t may be
that he fought, bled and died in the army
mule service, or it may have
been a bid of the Postmaster
General for the colored vote, large pro-
portion of which the Democratic party is
likely to capture. However this may be,
the instructions were duly carried out,
and Davis, with his brass buttons, gay
uniform and limited autographed know
ledge sailed forth last Monday morning
to distribute his quota Of letters. But his
return was not triumphant one in
every respect. He did not reappear at
the postofice until II o'clock at night,
and then brought back about half the let
d. tiers he started with, having been unable
to decipher the superscriptions. He has
since been removed by postmaster
Lynch, and his place supplied by one
more competent to fill the position. His
career was less remarkable for its bril-
iancy than for an example of Republi-
can application of civil service reform.

A JOYFUL OCCASION.
The Brilliant Reception rendered Mr.. and Mrs.
Baumgarten Last Evening.

In response to large number of invit-
ations, a pleasant party of friends Of Mr..
and Mrs. Joseph Baumgarten assembled
at Sheldon's Hall last evening, and ten
dered that estimable couple one of
the most brilliant receptions ever given
in this city. The committee on arrange
ments, consisting of Messrs. J. Green
valid, Ed. Rheinstrom and Emil Fried
man, had everything most admirably
prepared, and under their direction the
occasion was made a delightful one for
all present. "Joe" was in his glory and
seemed to be just trimming over with
happiness About sixty couples occupied
the floor with dancing until about II
o'clock, when the party repaired to Mr..
Stearne's restaurant and found a splendid
supper awaiting them. After some time
had been spent in social enjoyment,
toasts, etc, the party returned to the hall
and dancing was resumed and continued
until late hour.
In addition to the many friends of the
newly-married couple who reside in this
city, the following guests were present
Miss Birdie Bloch, Ogden; Mr.. Wasser-
man and Mr.. Cohn, San Francisco; Dun
can McGinnis, jr,, Bingham, and John ii.

1, the undersigned am sc years of age, and
came to Utah twenty years ago, and the hard
ships soon broke me down. | have tried your
most celebrated surgeons and physicians, some
of whom desired to operate on my womb, but
preferred a natural death to SO much suffering
and probable death after all: in fact, none of
them seemed to understand my case, and after
doctoring for many years kept getting worse,
and when employed DR.. Foot, Jr., was a com
plete wreck and almost dead. My troubles
were of so long standing that was afraid that
even DR.. Foot Jr., could not cure me. Although
he would not promise positively to cure me,
still he stated that he would try hard to cure
me- and thought that my chances were better
under specialists care than all of the family
physicians in the west. So / thought myself.
MY disease was the same thousands of other
women, and am not a woman to give up easy.
You can depend on the statement that not one
woman in a thousand could have lived through
what have and now in only about two months
treatment can truthfully say that feel and
look like a new woman, and believe myself
practically cured, and have got my moneys
worth for certain, which no other doctor gave
me before. Now you sick and half dead ones,
don't delay in employing DR.. Foot, Jr. am
having my daughters treated and sending all
my personal friends, and you can depend on
Just what the Doctor says He won't lie for
little money; he don't have to. He has all
the patients he and his doctors can wait on
and he treats the poor just as well the rich,
and he has my good wishes and God bless him.

WHAT WAS IT F0Rs
a Series Of Sub-Roso Meetinqs by the
Ministers of this City.

1t has been whispered for some time
past that series of meetings of a semi
political nature was being held
by the ministers of this CITY
but no one except the ministers
themselves seem to know the exact ma
ture and purpose of the gatherings. and
all efforts of the DEMOCRAT man to pnmn
the ministerial participants have been
Ruthless From what meagre informa-
ton was cleaned from the outside.
the reporter surmised that the object of
the meetings was to prepare an endorse
ment of certain Federal officials in this
territory and petition the incoming adj
mlnlstration to retain them; but the fact
that one of the meetings was held at the
house of Governor Murray indicates that
he was not included among those to be
endorsed.
A DEMOCRAT man called on Bishop
Tuttle, the chairman of these meetings,
on Monday, for the purpose of learning
the details of the movement. Bishop
futile stated that the object of the meet
ings had not been accomplished, but that
everything would be contaminated at a
meeting to be held on the following
Thursday yesterday, and it would be
best to wait until that time. The re-
porter therefore called again this morn
ing.
Everything is finished and the matter
is ended" said Bishop futile. "But
nothing can be given to newspapers. 1
requested permission of the association
last night to give the DEMOCRAT detailed
account of the proceedings, but resolu-
ton to the effect that nothing should be
given the newspapers, was passed. 1
can therefore give you no information"
els there any reason why the matter
should be kept secret? Is it not some
thing of interest to the public?"
eyes, it is matter that concerns the
public, and 1 see no reason for withhold
ing it, but that is the determination of
the meeting, and of course l would not
be justified in disregarding their expressed
wishes"
A gentleman who is on the outside of
the ministerial circle, but who claims
to know something about these meet
ings, assured DEMOCRAT representative
this morning that their object
was not to petition President Cleve-
land for the retention of any officials, but
was simply to endorse the course ofJudge
Zane and Prosecuting Attorney Dickson
and assure them of the hearty sympathy
of the clergy. The fact that many of the
ministers of this city who participated in
these meetings are believed to be men
who would not stoop to use their ecclesi-
astic influence in support of any move
ment of political nature, leads to the
belief that the latter theory as to the OBJ
ject of the meetings, is the correct one.
Why not give the proceedings publicity ?
The public is interested and the clergy
have surely not been doing anything they
are ashamed of.

Gave Him Away.

E. S. Wright appeared in Justice
Speirs' court yesterday afternoon with a
grievance. His peace had been dis
turbed, and he demanded redress. A
COMPLAINT was therefore made
out on the spot and war
rant issued for the arrest of the
peace disturber, Samuel Norris. When the
case was called to-day Judge Speirs asked
where the defendant was. A big police
man called His Honor's attention to a lit
file white-faced trembling midget OF hui
manity, who looked incapable of disturb
ing the peace OF hea.
That was the defendant and the
curiositv of the few spectators was aroused
to know just how he succeeded IN Great
ing the disturbance.
Mr.. Wright, whose peace had been DIS
turbed by this 1O-year-old child was
called TO the stand, and from his testl-
mony it appeared that he was walking
down the street with certain young
lady on Wednesday, when the child-de-
PENDANT yelled to him; "Go and hug
the other girl. You had better hug
Miss NJ. than that girl. Good chance
now. old folks away" Judge Lomax, Tor
the defendant, moved that the boy be dis
charged. as it was not shown that he
knew that his conduct constituted pup
lie ofense, as the statutes require When
the defendant is under fourteen years OF
age. The motion was sustained and the
lad discharged. :.
Although the ofense was very small
one. it is quite natural that Wright should
object to being given away in such a
manner.

This is to certify that my wife was in
wretched condition, troubled with Dyspepsia,
Liver Complaint Nervous and General Debility,
Heart troubles, Female Weakness, etc, very
Weak Back Headache, etc. She was in terri
BILE condition and had given up being cured,
and would not have doctors any more il DR..
Foot Jr., had not come to Salt Lake. He being
a specialist, had new hopes and more faith,
and when he looked at my wife and told her
lust her condition it gave me renewed hopes,
and the Doctor said he was very certain that he
could greatly benefit her, if not cure her, and
as the Doctor talked good sense and seemed
skillful and honest, paid him all in advance,
telling him that now he would not have to
worry about his pay. and for him to do his best:
Now, after few weeks treatment, must tell
my friends and the public. that never saw or
heard of such a wonderful improvement
Everything the Doctor predicted has come true,
and she has gained in every respect, as much
and more than he promised. Friends, there is
no mistake about it, DR.. Foot, Jr., is just the
physician we have needed for many years in
Utah Take my advice and give him your case
for treatment The Doctor will tell you as near
the truth as possible, is my firm belief:
