PROBABLY WANTED IN NEVADA.
The Presence of Sheriff Fellows
Mus Have Caused Cannon
Change His Mind.

The presence of Sheriff Fellows OF
Nevada at the court, here, on Wednes-
day when the George q. Cannon trial was
expected TO he opened, is said to have its
explanation in the fact of his being
witness in the case. This is the only
theory that has been offered voluntarily,
but it was not generally accepted. 1t
seems absurd to picture Sheriff Fellows
as witness in the unlawful cohabitation
case against Cannon as the gentlemen
never met each other until the sheriff
made the arrest in the "Santa Clara" at
Humboldt station, and he was certainly
equally unacquainted with Cannon's
family.
Last evening statement was overheard
which throws little light on the subject.
In conversation about the flight OF the
Apostle gentleman made the remark
that Cannon had been advised of an in
dictment for bribery, which Sheriff Fell
lows brought with him from the Sage
brush State, and that it was arranged so
that on the appearance of Cannon in
court he would be arrested on this more
serious charge, and either taken to
Nevada or secured by some legal arrange
ment with Marshal Ireland by which, at
the expiration of the term or terms in
this penitentiary, Cannon could be trans
ferred to Winnemucca.
These facts having come TO the knowl.
edge of the Apostle, it is said he con-
cluded at a late day TO skip, or at least to
keep away from the courtroom. What
ever there may be in the reputed object
OF the sherif's visit here, there will moi
be found great many people who will
believe the excuse for Cannon's disap
pearance. These facts may have in
creased his fear and added fresh strength
to his determination to take advantage o
prevailing cut rates, but certainly nothing
more than this.
Sheriff Fellows, himself, insisted tina
he was here as witness, and had very
little to say on the Cannon affair which
has not already been published. He LEI
for his home yesterday afternoon.

To the Almighty Dollar.

80 Almighty Dollar our acknowledged
governor, preserver and benefactor, we
desire to approach thee, on this and every
other occasion, with that reverence which
is due superior excellence, and that
regard which should ever be cherished
for exalted greatness. Almighty Dollar !
without thee in the world we can do
nothing, but with thee we can do
all things. When sickness lays its palsy
ing hands upon us thou canst provide for
us the tenderest OF nurses, the most skill
iul physicians, and when the last struggle
OF mortality is over, and we are being
borne to the resting-place OF the dead,
thou canst provide band of music
and military escort to accompany
us thither; and last, but not least
erect II monument over our graves, with
lying epitaph to perpetuate our mem
cries. And while here, in the midst OF
the misfortune and temptation of this
life, we perhaps are accused of
crimes and brought before magistrates,
thou, Almighty Dollar, canst secure to
us feed lawyer, bribed judges packed
jury, and we go out scott free. BE with
us, we pray thee, in all thy decimal parts,
for we feel that thou art the one alto
gether lovely and the chieiest among ten
thousand

THEY FEEL BAD OVER 1T.
Threatened Church Boycott
Dampens the Governors
AppOintces.

Mr.. Bolivar Roberts, the new Terrific
rial Treasurer, was noticed this morning
to wear an expression OF alarming des-
pondency, and being asked by Our reporter
what secret sorrow was gnawing at his
vitals, the gentleman, with a parson-like
soberness, answered:
al have been worrying p over the
assault made upon me by the Deserct
Neps last night. Just think OF it, young
man: here have been in Salt Lake City
for thirty-five years past, and now am
to be boycotted. Why, in the very early
stand on Main street, | have
seen Church dupes stand at my store
door and adrotly advise customers from
entering, lest perchance might be bene-
fitted while kicking against the prcks.
They may well talk about boycotting me.
Then, l am threatened too, that as Il
bogus appointee' il | persist in my
course shall not have much claim on
public favor when n change comes over
Utah affairs This is so alarmingly
shocking, this is. Just picture the pub
lie favor / have received during those
thirty-fivc years in Utah; why YOU know,
yourself, how offices have been thrust p
upon me, and how l have been smiled
upon also in my peevishness. Now,
yon know / am not much OF
grumbler and no radical either,
but the prospects of losing public
favor-of the Mormons-and being boy
cotted in my business-this is too much
for poor, weak human nature, and you
will excuse me ii | seem to succumb.
And there's poor Pratt, too, why his liver
is dreadful this morning. l don't know
but he may possibly weaken and retire. u
These expressions were spoken in q
humorous and ironical tone and manner
that would have done honor to the late
lamented Josh Billings.

When They Get Water.

The Idaho AraiaRche says The placer
diggngs recently found near Glenn s
ferry, in this towyhee) county, are at
tracing considerable attention, and
drawing thither swarms of prospectors.
The only difficulty in making them pay
Wen Is to get water on them. There are
thousands OF acres Of placer mining
ground along the banks Of Snake river
mat would pay well ii water could only
be brought on the ground. This will be
the great difficulty. but when it is done.
rs We have before said, the banks Of Snake
river will add to the world more cold
than ever California did.

Industrial Christian Home Association


EDITOR DEMOCRAT: A little history of
the work OF the ladies OF the Industrial
Christian Home Association will be of
interest to your readers. About the first
of March Miss Angie +. Newman came
to Salt Lake, and in connection with Mrs.
Paddock commenced agitating the ques-
ton OF building such home. They got
the endorsement of all the Federal
officers Except the Governor, and he
promised them his, but failed to give it
them), the Church ministry and many OF
our best citizens. The ladies' then went
to the editor OF the Tribune for counsel.
He told them to get their papers in shape,
and have the Association appoint two
ladies delegates to represent them in
Washington and 81 will take the re-
sponsibility upon myself of raising the
money to pay your expenses"
The ladies went at the work with q will +,
organized and incorporated. In the
meantime, they appointed Chaplain
Jackson, Rev. McNiece and one lady to
aid in securing the necessary funds for
the trip. One OF the committee went to
inquiry about the funds. The editor re-
plicu tiiub llc Wuo W VIC WI n
| himself" The committee then left the
matter in his hands When the incor-
poration was completed, and the ladies
expected to start in the morning, one OF
the committee went to the editor and
asked him for the funds for the ladies'.
He replied that che had not done any
thing in the natter" and "that he would
leave the next morning for Wash
ington himself" 1t is presumed that
he could not use the ladies as
he expected to be able to, in further.
ing some appointments for Utah, and he
did not want them in Washington. 1t is
said that he goes in the interest OF some
OF the hold-over officers, although the
money was raised for another purpose.
All the same, the ladies are on their way
East, but if they get to Washington they
will pay their expenses themselves.

At Malad, Idaho.

Considerable excitement prevails at
present over the discovery OF an alleged
silver mine. A party said to represent a
Salt Lake City firm has been prospecting
in that vicinity for some weeks, and
claims to have made some very valuable
discoveries. Several assays have been
made showing ore yielding from $50 to
500 per ton gold and silver. Further
developments will be made as soon as the
weather permits. A number of miners
from Utah are there and others are ar
irving daily.
