SALT RIVER. An imaginary stream
up which defeated candidate is supposed
to be sent, and whence he is not expected
to come back. The origin of the expression
is as follows: Salt river, geographically. is
a tributary of the Ohio. Its source is in
Kentucky, and, being very crooked and
difficult of navigation, it was in early DAYS
a favorite stronghold for river pi-
rates. These highwaymen were in the
habit of preying upon the commerce of
the Ohio and rowing their plumber up Salt
river, whence ii was never recovered
Hence it came to be said of anything that
was irreyocably lost, It's rowed up Salt
river" BY an easy transition it was APP
piled to unsuccessful candidates. He has
been rowed (or rode) up s. H." or, well
row him (or ride him) up S. r. next fall :"

A Reviewer Reviewed.

EDS. RECORD UNION: Last week some
one connected with the San Francisco En-
aaina reviewed at length preface to one
Of my books. To this no objection could
be made. but the gentleman went further,
and reflected upon my private motives,
and this week he again comments
upon my individual conduct while
criucising another PERSONS book, and gives
me much advice. OF course the reviewer
could notice the preface or the plays as he
chose, but l did not offer my personal
character for his consideration. While he
had right TO refuse to review the book on
the ground that " it is absurd to try a case,
the parties TO which declared before hand
that it would be a nullity," he had no
right to call my statements into question.
His legal tradition should have held him
to the subject-matter. He tells me that
'candor to acknowledge faults g 8 is
not the meter in which the asplrant can
excel" Now, while | am not personally
acquainted with the meter" presume
that he is of French extraction, and l adj
mire the skillful manner in which the
writer drags him into service. Ali this is
very excellent, but | must nevertheless
warn the critic that am too far gone to
be reclaimed by such moral advice, SO that
ii had better be applied to some more
worthy recipient. ADAIR WELCKER.
