EVE, EFFEtTs:


The correctness of the old idea that
a law which is nog enforced is worse
than no law,is being illustrated in Mas
ssachusetts. and mother New England
towns. The Grand Army Post of
Stoughton, Mass, held fair last fall,
and in connection win it announced a
lottery; this latter was opposed by the
clergy OF the place, who, falling in their
appeals to the Grand Army in the
premises, asked the authorities to inter
fere and prevent the violation of the
law. The community at once took sides
in the controversy. and the majority! of
The 'ebetter element" stood in with the
Grand Army, and the roughs and
hoodlums threatened to burn the church
if the ministers did not desist. The re-
suit was that the law was not enforced,
and the drawing took place, the prizes
being paid as promised. The capital prize
of 81, 900 fell to club of school boysin
Manchester, N H., who had invested
their dimes and quarters in block of
tickets. The news of the good luck
spread, and it is now said that hun
dreds of boys in New England are ter I
ribly afflicted by the lottery craze; they
are fairly mad over the business; spend
ing all the money they. can get for
chances, 2 and in some instances lads
have been guilty of stealing in order to
obtain few dollars with which to pur-
chase tickets. The evil that the Grand
Army lottery will cause can hardly be
estimated, but it is. not too much to
say that many boys will be ruined
by it. The enforcement of the statute
against lotteries-which is one of the
wisest lawsi in the ldnd-in this instance
should have been as strict as in the case
of the Louisiana frauds or Kentucky
swindles. The act does not run against
crooked. lottery any more than an
honestly conducted one; nor should
it know the difference between
church lottery and the
game of chance by which the sharp
fellows of the south dupe the gullible.
1t is the petty violation of the law
which is overlooked, the winking at
the infraction of a statute by some
favored or influential ones that brings
law into disrepute with the masses. 1t
would be better to repeal the laws
against lotteries than permit the Grand
Army. the charity associations and the
churches TO disregard them.

rAmMASY GONE.

The other day the great Tammany
boss, John Kelly sold his paper, the
New York Star which act must be
accepted as aconfession on his part that
he regards his political power as broken
and that he considers his day as ruler of
themetropolis and indirectly of the En-
pire State is over. The New York Euen-
ing Post makes the sale Of the Star the
occasion Tor taking farewell of Kelly. It
says: The moment the Comfy Demo
cracy yielded to the citizens commit.
tees demands and accepted Mr.. Grace
candidacy for mayor the doom of Kelly
and also of Blaine was sealed. So COM
pIete was the overthrow of Kelly that
even his stolid temperament was
affected by it, and the man whose face,
figure and conduct have for so long a
time constituted the very persoaiication
of obstinancy in this city was confined
to his house for several weeks by an at
tack of nervous depression"
Tammany syet powerful, but it has
passed the zenith, and is now on the
steep down-grade,; the kick that it re-
ceived in the Chicago Convention being
more than It could withstand. If the
late election had done no more than
break the back of that organization
which has so long stood in the way of
Democratic success, the victory would
have been great, and worth all the eff
fort that it cost. 1t was Tilden who be-
gan the earnest fight against Tammany,
and the battle has continued until
Cleveland had the honor of completing
the good work instituted by the grand
old statesman whose name will ever
shine as one of the most brilliant in the
Democratic armament.
1t is generally conceded that while
Kelly, late in the. campaign promised
to be faithful to Cleveland, he was
playing falsely, as he had done SO
often in the past. The vote in the city
proved that he was unfaithful to the
pledges that he had made; that he gave
rammany votes to Blaine, and in return
'eceived Republican votes for his candi-
lates for mayor and aldermen. The
did not succeed, defeat and
uin overlook him, and what is better
lis defeat is final, for never again will
ohm Kelly and Tammany be permitted
0. regain the power which they once
xer cised. = 'ss

ANOTHER GRANT BILL.

Senator Edmunds, on Tuesday, in
troduced bill authorizing the Presi-
dent to place on the retired list of the
army one general who had commanded
or. been the general-in-ehief' of the
army. The sole purpose" of the. bill is
to provided handsome salary for Gen.
eral Grant. In all probability it will
pass the Senate. but it is not believed it
can get through the House. If Grant
or any of his friends can present a SOL
itary good reason why he should be
thus handsomely provided for at the
public expense, all will unite in a petit
ton to Congress to press the bill and
give him the money. 1t is not a suffi-
Gent reason to show that Grant is ig-
Rorant of the laws of business and fin
, ance, nor that he got caught in the net
of his swindling partner. If the gov
eminent were to step IN to protect
everybody who lost money through
recklessness on their own part or swim.
ding on the part of others, the talk OF
reducing the tariff and internal revenue
taxes would soon be heard no longer
throughout the land. The republic has
been in no sense ungrateful to the Gen
eral, and all these attempts to beat the
public, treasury out of money for his
benefit are evidences of misdirected gen

bell among the poor of the city; hence his
remark. He said:
II have just seen a lady who has been
greatly annoyed by a letter in one of her
hands. 1t had given her much trouble and
pain. She said she had been treated by
severalphysicians during the past three OF
four years with the old remedies, but with
out giving any relief. / suggested Swift's
Specific, ana she took four bottles and is
now apparently perfectly well. Her hand is
smooth and not a single sign OF the disease
left. 1t is marvellous how this medicine
fenoyates the system"
"What about the other eaSe?"
We'll, that was a lady also. She had heeD
affected with the eczema for four years.
Her face, hands and arms, as well rs her
body, was covered over with sores and
seabs. 1t was one of the worst cases of this
terrible disease that have ever seen. The
suffering of the poor creature was beyond
expression. She tried every remedy at COM
mand, including mercury and -iodide OF
potash, but she only grew worse. She was
in this condition when first saw the case.
soon had her taking swift's Specific, and
she has now only taken two bottles, but
every mark of the disease has almost EN-.
tirely disappeared. Her strength and general
health have greatly improved 1t is one of

SOME WEEKS ago it was noted IN THE
Herald that bill had been introduced
in Congress for the reimbursement of
Moses NJ. Bane, receiver of public
moneys at Salt Lake City, for rent paid
by him, and correspondent wanted to
know the true inwardness of the claim.
THE HERALD has received a copy of the
bill, which was introduced by Mr.. Nor
rison. of Illinois, read twice and referred
to the committee ,on claims, where it
has since lain. The bill directs the Sec
rotary of the Treasury to pay Mr..
Bane. "for ofice-rent in Salt Lake City

A RAILROAD PROJECT.

The newspapers of the 9th instant
contained dispatch from Washington,
announcing the introduction into the
House of bill to incorporate the Utah.
Santa Fe and Gulf Railroad Company.
A copy of the bill has come to hand; it
is a formidable document of 20
pages of % lines each, suggest
ing that perhaps it is to be largely
paper railroad. This suggestion
would: be entirely consistent were it not
for the circumstance that the names of
some good men and some men of money
appear among the incorporators. The
incorporators are Edward Z. Holman
and w. w. Jackson, Washington; L.
Bradford Prince, Giles Otis Pearce, and
Walter v. Hayt, Santa Fe, New
Mexico; Calvin D. Van Name, J. F.
Chesebrough and Charles Nickerson,
New York City, and Edward E.
.Culp, Salina, Kansas. But when we
come to trace the project, and
consider what the objects and purposes
of the company contemplate, all idea of
paper road must vanish. When it is
stated that the road is to begin at the
Gulf of Mexico and end at Portland,
Oregon, with some thousands of miles
of branches and feeders, the reader will
understand how. feasible and probable
! the. scheme isi';+The' line is to com
mence at. the north end of
Mustang Island, lin the Gulf
of Mexico, and run thence to
Santa Fe. thence TO Salt Lake City,
thence "bY the most direct and feasible
route through Nevada or Idaho, to be
selected by the said company to the
ships channel of the Columbia river, at
or near the CITY of Portland, State OF
Oregon" The branches are to run from
the Muscalero Indian reservation, n.
Ia, to SocCT,o, San Antonio, or San
Marcial on the Rio Grande, thence tc
Escucdilla Mountain Peak on the Ari-
iona line, thence to Phoenix, Arizona,
thence to San Diego; another
branch is to run from Au
brey Landing, Arizona, to Phoebe,
Nevada, then to Frisco, this Territor V
and so on north to juction with the
main line near this city. Work mus
be begun within three years, but moth
ing is said about the time of compile
ton, This latter being wise omission
on the part of the trainers of the bill.
When we hear the foot of the locomo.
tive whistle we will believe the Utah
Santa Fe and Gulf railroad mean.
