THE NOMINATIONS

Governor Murray has sent to the Coun-
Gil, for confirmation, the name of Mr..
Farley l.. Williams to be Territorial Su-
perintendent of Public Schools; that of
Mr.. Bolivar Roberts to be Territorial
Treasurer, and that of Mr.. Arthur Pratt
to be Auditor of Public Accounts. The
gentlemen so nominated are well quail
fled to discharge the duties of the offices
to which they have been named, and we
trust they will receive the confirmation of
the Council. The gentlemen whose
names have been sent to the Council are
not in sympathy, politically, with the
Council, but if they are fit and proper
persons to fill the offices the
Council should confirm them, un.
less there are valid objections
to them. That there are no objections to
them personally either as to character or
capacity will be granted by all, and the
only ones that can be made to them are
of purely political nature. These should
not weigh with the Council, and if they
do, the Council will assume towards the
Governor of Utah the same attitude
that the Republican Senate at
Washington has assumed towards
the President. 1t is somewhat curious
coincidence that the Republican Gov
ernor of Utah should find himself con-
fronted with the same difficulties, raised
by the Mormon Legislature of Utah, that
a Democratic President of the United
States has to confront from Republican
Senate. There is some little difference
in the two cases, but this does not mate
rally change the case. The Council
in Utah deny, or rather have in past
years, that the Governor has the right to
nominate certain offices, the Council
claiming the right to make the appoint
ments independently of the Governor
The Governor relies upon the Organic
Act for his right, but the right upon
which he bases his claim says that his
appointments shall be with the advice
and consent of the Council. Whether an

A BRILLIANT CITY MARSHAL.

On Saturday evening, November %,
1885, at few minutes past O'Clock,
shooting affair occurred in well known
quarter of the town. Great and extraor-
binary interest was taken in the affair on
account of the parties engaged in it. The
one was United States Deputy Marshal,
the other the night-watchman at the
Tithing Office. However the shooting
occurred; whoever may have been the
aggressor, it is certain that the night
watchman, one McMurrin, was shot
twice. 1t is also certain that McMurrin
cannot be found at present. An exami-
nation of the case is going on to-day be-
fore U. S. Commissioner Mckay, the
charge being preferred against Collin,
the Deputy Marshal engaged in the shoot
ing affair. Now to our story.
The writer was in the house on the
north side of the lane in which the shoot
ing occurred at the time it occurred.
About twenty minutes after the shooting
he had occasion to go to the Opera House
as escort to couple of nieces, about
eight and thirteen years of age. The
writer, accompanied by the little girls,
went into the lane where the shooting oc-
CURED out of curiosity, but in that lane
he found hat which he lifted up with
his cane. On feeling it he recognized
that it was new soft felt hat, and this
convinced him that something had hap
pened in connection with the shooting,
and that the shots were not the mere
discharge of pistol for the purpose of
unloading it. The writer carried the hat
to the City Hall, where he learned that
man had been shot. He inquired for the
City Mars Z and when he saw the Mar
shal, he hin the hat and told him
how anu where he had found it. The
hat was left in charge OF the Marshal
This morning, near noon, when the
Prosect'ingg Attorney was questioning
a sister of :. McMurrin about this
hat alo whether or not she could
identify it, the Prosecuting Attorney
turned to the City Marshal and asked
him where the hat was. To this ques-
tion Marshal Phillips replied that he did
not know where the hat was The Mar
shal, we understand, took the hat to Nc
= Murrin and asked him whether or not it
was his, aud MeMu~i- said it was. How
does it come taar Inc Marshal does not
know where that hat is? He certainly
had it, and he certainly should have kept
it. Why was the Marshal SO anxious to
find out whose hat it was until the par
ties engaged in the shootinG, ,afray should
have an examination or I'D? Such con-
duct of itself is highla reprehensi-
bic, but when ihe City Marshal
permits the hat to 60 fout of his
possession, his conduct, thIt was before
reprehensible, becomes criminal No
matter whether that hat belonged to Nc
Murrin or Collin or whether the one or
the other was guilty of an assault, there
can be no excuse for the conduct of Mar
shal Phillips. Such conduct as that of
which Marshal Phillips was guilty in this
case proves him to be an eminently i'm
proper personsto fill his position If the
City Council have any sense of deccncy
and prcpriety they will disburden them
selves of such an officer so far as in their
power lies. He is not fit to have any
public recognition.

The waste of food in hotels and res
taurants, says the Chicago Times, is
something enormous. In London this
waste is practically utilized by the Sisters
of Mercy, who keep some one constantly
in the kitchen to save all the scraps as
we'll as the articles that are returned from
the dining-rooms. These are carefully
sorted and put in covered baskets. The
soups, chowders and gravies are placed in
cans and buckets. At night covered
wagon comes and takes them away.
Some of the articles are taken to the hos
pits and asylums; the others are dis
tributed among those of the sick and poor
who are deserving.

Docs doomed to die in London do not

extreme penalty. In the chemical death

carbonic oxide over surface of anes-
thetic mixture composed of chloroform
and bisulphide of carbon.

THE CHASTITY BILL.

The bill introduced into the Legislature
by Mr.. Mclaughlin is very good bill, all
things considered. 1t cannot be said
that the bill is well drawn, in fact it is
rather loosely drawn. Sections and
6 should have named the degrees within
which marriages are forbidden for section
Z refers to the enumerations of the
two preceding sections as degrees of con-
sanguinity. Section nine needs an
amendment to make it include in
fanticide by any and all mothers,
whether their child be legitimate
or illegitimate. Section 9only Furnishes
the mother who shall murder her illegiti-
mate child. and says nothing about the
murder of legitimate child by lawful
wife and mother 1t is to be regretted
that the bill is defective as we point out,
but if it shall pass the House and Coun-
Gil and receive the Governors signature,
it will be great gain towards settling
the Utah question, and would give great
hopes as to what the future would bring
forth. Hope in Utah has found its grave
in the fact that the Territorial Legislature
has not only refused to pass any law
looking to the suppression of polygamy
in Utah, but have repealed laws that
might remotely be construed to affect
polygamy and punish those who were in
it. This bill of Mr.. McLaughlin's while
not directly aimed at the question of
polygamy would, in its general applica-
ton, include that crime. The bill is in
reality bill in the interest of chastity,
morality and decency. The members of
the Legislature can hardly refuse to give
their sanction to this bill, but if they do,
the public will be most anxious to know
on what grounds such refusal is made.
If better bill on the same subject is in
troduced, and the members give it their
support, they will do proper thing. Mr..
Kings bill on the same subject may be
termed plea in avoidance. The plea
should not be allowed. This bill of Mr..
McLaughlin's is liable to be rock of de-
struction to the Legislature.

Spelling the Crazy Quilts.

There has been great cry lately
against silk crazy quilts. 1t is good
way to utilize old scraps of silk, and it is
only the abuse of the crazy quilt that
causes dislike. A crazy quilt is prettier
without all the cross stitching, embroid-
cred blocks, pieces of looking-glass set in,
or any superf1uous decoration. The
blocks of silk simply patched together
with colors blending harmoniously are
enough to produce pleasing effect. 1t
is the same with the crazy quilt as it is
with everything else in America. As
soon as a pretty fashion arrives it be-
comes abused at once by over-decora-
tion.-Hartford Times.

TWO RUMORs.

The Herald of this morning says there
is rumor in circulation to the effect that
the Governor will not sign any bills that
the Legislature may pass unless the Leg
islature will pass such bills as the Cover
nor desires. That is one rumor. An
other, rumor is that if the Governor will
not approve the bills passed by the Leg
islature, the Legislature will refuse to
pass any appropriation bill. Whether
there is any truth in either of these ru-
mors we do not know. If the ru-
mors are well founded, they do
not reflect any credit on the Gov
ernor or the Legislature. 1t must be
taken for granted that the Executive and
the Legislature OF the Territory are not
mere lads quarrelling over their play. If
the Legislature pass just and needed
laws, the Governor should approve them
although the Legislature may refuse to
pass other just and needed laws. If the
Governor refuses to approve certain just
and proper laws, that is no reason why
the Legislature should refuse to make ap-
preparations to carry on the government
of the Territory. Men may differ as to
the policy or impolicy of enacting GER
tain laws, but this difference should
not extend to laws upon which they are
agreed, and they cannot plead that re-
fusal to do or not to do a thing is a iusti-
fication for refusing to do thing both
parties agree upon.
These two rumors of which we speak
should be looked upon as mere rumors
until something more definite is known
concerning them, and we have merely
discussed them by way of illustration
Rumors are not always well-founded, and
until they are pretty definitely traced to a
correct source, should be held to be idle.

A gross injustice seems to have been
done Joaquin Miller by the telegraphed
report that he had abandoned his daugh-
ter to want in a strange city. 1t now
turns out that the daughter has hus-
band to look afterher and that her father
has frequently aided her from his not too
well purse. Mr. Miller has his full share
of the eccentricities of genius, but among
them heartlessness is not numbered

officer nominated by the Governor, but
who is not confirmed by the Council, can
bring an action toobtain possession of
the Office to which he is nominated is
question. The Governors nominations,
which we think he has an Organic right
to make, and which are lar better than
the average nominations, should be con-
firmed by the Council, and President
Cleveland's nominations to the Senate
should also be confirmed.

ABAGGAGE-sxAsHER IN CONGRESS-
A Burly Trunk.T0sser who Sits I'm
Frank Hu1d,s Seat.

!, A big German OF so, as different from
Frank Hurd as heat is from cold, has
come here to represent Toledo In Con.
gress. Hurd is contesting his seat and
there is lack of 250 votes in question.
Romeis has complexion as fair and rosy
as that of blonde milkmaid, while
Hurd's face is strongly brunette. Romels
will weigh three times as much as Hurd.
He is tail and muscular, with arms made
hard by the handling of baggage. For
years of his life he was baggage agent on
the Wabash Railroad, and he still has
general control of the baggage OF that
road. He is about so years of age, has
full, broad, German face, the lower part
of which, with beard of black, would
be much like that of ex-Speaker Keifer's.
His forehead is high and broad, his COM
plexion clear, and his eyes, of a clear
blue, are bright. He has a pleasant ad-
dress and talks with the slightest German
accent. He was born in Germany and
came to this country at ten years of age,
and began life as a cabin boy on one of
the big steamboats, of Lake Erie. From
cabin boy he rose to porter, and finally
got into the baggage business as above
stated. During the last campaign ex-
Congressman Sherwood, in making a
speech against him, said: 'sWhat do
you want with this man Romeis in Con-
gress? He is nothing but a baggage
smasher, and only fit to handle trunks. !"
Romeis' friends took up this statement
as watchword of their campaign, and it
was through sympathy that Romeis Sc
cured his majority. His friends wore
upon the lapels of their coats baggage
checks, and on one of the transparencies
was printed:

SCIENTIFIC MISCELLANY.

It is often a matter of surprise that
| drunken men sustain little or no INJURY
| from falls which might have been ex-
pected to result fatally. The reason o.
/ this immunity is that the nerve centres

not to be effected by the shock OF th'
fall, which, in a sober man, would have
acted upon them so violently as to stoI
the heart, arrest the circulation, a1t
cause instant death.
