EDITORIAL NOTES.

It is pleasing to notice that there is hope full feeling as to the fall trade. No boom is expected, but a steady and satisfactory busi- ness is looked for.
 The proclamation against polygamy issued by the new governor of Utah is right and earnest in it's tone. He has made good be- ginning which it is hoped he will follow up by executing the law.
 There are some very smart little girls in Boston. Here is an extract from acomposi- ton describing different nationalties writ ten by small girl of the Hub: ''Chinaman- Color, yellow; habits, eats rats and smokes opium; occupation, washing and ironing Negro-Color, black; habits, likes liver; oc- cupation, beats carpets. American-Color, white; habits, eats beans and fshballs Sun day mornings: occupation, builds churches and school houses"
 The Central Labor Union of New York is going to have things it's own way if it can. At it's last meeting committee was appoint ed to ask the retail matters to sign an agree ment to close their stores on Sunday, a thing proper enough in itself, but it was accompa- nied by the threat that those who refused 'would incur the displeasure" of the union. It also decided to keep up the Ehret boycott for the avowed purpose of driving Mir. Ehret out of business. Moreover, it proposes to demand" of the governor the pardon of the Theiss boycotters, who were convicted of the crime of extorting blackmail. We believe the time is not far distant when this union will learn the limits of it's power.
 The New Haven Union says: ''One trouble in the New Haven boyeotting business, the chief trouble, it seems to us, was a certain clumsiness and Responsibility about the transaction. The names of labor organiza- tions were brought into it without any author this way very unjust odium has been brought upon labor organizations which really had no responsibility in the matter. There was too much indulgence in talk, very foolish talk much of it, talk, too, with insufficient power behind it to make it effective" There is some truth in this. And as long as the typo graphical union of this city is managed as it has lately been it will continue to trouble and disgrace labor.
 A number of large and beautiful stalactite caverns have been discovered near Queens land, Australia. In one the walls, accord ing to an exploring party, were beautifully white, while the staiactites and stalagmites joined in exquisite tracery, reminding them of Chinese carved ivory. Another, 50 feet by 30 feet, with plain walls broken only by inches, and meeting in vaulted roof of i'm mense height, they called the cathedral. In some of the dark passages their candles were extinguished by the host of bats. From oth- CTS they descended sixty feet into lower cav erns, but everywhere the ground sounded hollow beneath their feet, so that the whole mountain appears to be trayersed by subter- ranean passages and caves in every direction excav ated in the limestone rock by the &C., tion of hot springs.
