THE GENTLEMEN of the Grand Jury
assure Judge Zane that prostitution in
this city came to a sudden stand
still when his honor's late charge was
delivered. This is so funny as to be hys.
terical; but we fear the idea is bor-
rowed from one Ct Gilbert's. Have the
gentlemen of the Grand jury ever seen
an opera called the Mikado?
Ko Ko.-When your majesty says,
let thing be done, it is as good as
done. Practically it is done. Your
majesty says kill a gentlemen, and a
gentleman is told off to be killed. Con-
sequently that gentleman is as good as
dead. Practically he is dead, and if he
is dead, ny not say SO?
MIKADo ZANE-i see. Nothing could
possibly be more satisfactory.

sOTTO EOCE.

IT WAS to be expected that the late
ordinance requiring peddlers to paw
license, would develop any amount OF
poverty and distress among those who
were required to come within its proyi-
sions, but the result has exceeded even
the most exaggerated estimates.
Scarcely session of the City Council
! in the last two months but flood of pc
! titions for remission of this odious tax
upon hitherto unrestricted industry
has poured upon the patience of the
Councilmen, and if there is an allment
named in the catalogue of the materia
me1ica that has not been urged as a
reason for exemption from license, it
has escaped the skilled ear of our most
vigil mt reporter. Lun bago. sir tngul.
ent hernia, complicated sciatica and
compound fractures of the upper

which the discriminating gentlemen

STARTLING, TRUE OR FALSE.

The new Suryeyor-General, R. s.
Dement,, is in Washington, and, accord
ing to telegram which appears else
where in THE HERALD, he is quite as
talkative and important in the National
Capital as in Salt Lake. 1t is strange
story which he tells, so strange in fact
that we doubt if the gentleman will be
able to verify it. 1t seems that he was
charged with the duty of investigating
certain land frauds which the Commits
sioner of the general land office believed
to exist, and in pursuance of this
work lie employed four detectives. The
result of their inquiry is set forth
briefly in the report of the conversation
between Secretary Lamar and General
Dement,, and is to the effect "that most
of the public land in the Territory
has been stolen by railroads
and certain prominent citizens; that
so per cent. of the entries made by Nor
mons are fraudulent, as are also % per
cent. of those made by Gentiles." He
asserts that the frauds were perpetrated
with the collision OF corrupt ring of
Federal officials in Utah and Washing
ton. Another startling assertion by
Dement, is, that he has documentary
evidence in his possession showing that
the Mormon Church has spent large
sums of money to prevent legislation
inimical to their interests, and to secure
favorable decisions from courts, and
that certain United States Senator re-
ceived $25, 600 for leading the opposition
10 the Edmunds BILL" 70
Much has been said in the past con-
corning all these matters. The Nor
mons have been charged with frauds,
the Federal officials accused of
erookedness, and it is an every weeks
occurrence for anti-Mornon news
papers to allege that the Saints are
using an enormous fund in the lobby
business; but never before, we believe.
was the direct accusation made with
such a degree of definiteness that it
could be traced to an individual.
General Dement, has evidently not
minced matters, and whether or not he
had good grounds for saying what he
did, he assumed TO speak by the card,
and thus placed himself in an attitude
where proof may be demanded. If he !
can supply that proof-he. says he has
documentary evidence as to some of hi.
char es-we will all hold up his |
hands, and while applauding him for
what he has done, will do what
can be done to bring the |
guilty to punishment. Il half tina. |
General Dementisays is true, the Pen;-
Tertiary here should be at once enlarged
and there ought 10 be some vacant
seats in the Q. S. Senate and House of |,
Representatives. But what should be
done, il it should turn out that the Sur
veyor-General has nothing to sustain
his charge beyond indefinite and ur.
traceable rumor? THE HERALD is free
to confess that it does not believe Cen
eral Dement, can sustain one of the
charges contained in the telegram pub
lished this morning, and as to some of
them We are confident they are gross
ISLANDERS. There is not an honest man
in Utah, Mormon or Gentle, who be,

The FIRST thought which will strike
most people in reading what General
Dement, is about in Washington this
morning will be that he should have
been born with the 'past indicative ED"
added to his name.

They Pad for II.

How about that charge made in
the democratic evening paper to the
effect that the railroad company has
agreed to furnish the republicans
with & special train 10 and from
Carbonate 70 Tacoma next Saturday
afternoou?'
This was the question addressed
by Ledger reporter to Mr.. Newman
Kline, chief clerk in the office of As.
sistaat General Manager Buckley.
There is a slight mistake about
that" replied Mr.. Kline, smiling, "a
slight little bit of an attenuated mis-
take, as it were. So far as my
knowledge goes the Northern Pa
cific has not yet gone into the bust
ness Of furnishing trains gratis to
political parties The fact IS simply
that the republican committee char
tered that train last week, guarantee,
ing to pay the company its regular
excursion rate, which is open to any
person or persons at any time. The
company would gladly furnish the
democratic, peoples or anti coolie
committee with q special tram If
called for, under the same conditions" :"
How did you come to treat Mr.
Voorhees, so bad about the hand
car?' further inquired the reporter
1T Is contrary to the transporta-
ton rules established by the man
agement TO allow the use Of a hand
Car by others than employees of the
company. This favor could DO be
granted to any person, whether dele
gate. governor or United States
senator. And the reason of the rule
is plain enough. as if the privilege
granted to one it must be to all,
which would subject passing trains
to imminent danger"
