Who Was Right?

The DEMOCRAT, the Tribune, and the
Ners and the Herald disagreed in the
wording OF one part OF the message. The
Tribune had this: Maintaining as do
the principles of line of precedents
from Washington's days, which prescribe
entangling alliances, etc." The NeWs had
this: Maintaining as do the tenor of
line of Presidents from Washington IS
days, etc." The Herald had it the same
as the News, that sheet having used the
Ne,rs type. The DEMOCRAT had this
Maintaining, as do, the tenth of line
of Presidents from Westinghouse days,
ETC."
The question is as to the word to be
used after the parenthetical phrase, "as l
do" as the Tribune has it, principles, y
"tcnor,' as the News and Herald have it,
or "tenth," as thelDEMocRAT has it. The
word was abbreviated in the dispatches,
and to fill it out properly was the ques-
ton. The DEMOCRAT made it tenth, be-
cause Cleveland is the tenth Democratic
President OF the United States, the other
nine Democratic Presidents having been
Thomas Jefferson, James Madison, james
Monroe, Andrew Jackson, James K Polk
Franklin Pierce, James Buchanan and
Andrew johnson.
We have good reason for our construc.
ton OF the phrase. Can our contempt.
raries give as good?

ayANON, AND "THE MIKADO."
4 sparkling Performance Last
Night-Carleton Talks of
"Tikado.v

The second performance of "Nanon"
by the Carleton Company, at the Walker
Opera House, drew out a fine audience
last evening, and standing room was only
obtainable after o'clock. The opera
went with all the vim and dash for which
this company is noted, the strength and
beauty OF the chorus being general
theme, and the bright, sparkling music,
rendered in such a delightful manner,
called forth encore after encore.
Between the acts Mr.. Carleton came
before the curtain and made an announce
ment in reference to "The Mikado" to-
night He did not wish to be understood
as referring TO the amateur company. but
the distorted and piratical versions
of the opera given here by ''profes-
SIGNALS" had been wretched limitations,
and gave no proper idea OF the piece.
His costumes and every detail had been
expressly imported at large expense;
the original orchestration was possessed by
him alone-and for every dollar that goes
into the house tonight Gilbert q Sullivan
will receive percentage as n reward for
their brain work-his representation OF
"The Mikado'' tonight would be n per-
Torrance OF which he would be proud
and he thought it would prove to be the
grandest opera he had ever put on in Salt
Lake.
A large house is already sold for to-
night, for it seems to be an accepted fact
that Carleton's presentation will be all
he claims for it,
