The race at the Rink, SaturdsJ eve-
ming, between Master Roxie Fitzger-
aid, aged IA. of Cleveland, and Matte
Leffingwell, Ravenna's champion,
aged Is, was witnessed by large and
enthusiastic audience. The little flyers
were evenly matched, making the race
quite exciting. The first heat was
given to Matte, on account of foul by
Roxie's coacher, though Roxie crossed
the line some feet ahead. The second
heat, up to the 18th lap, was closely
contested, when. unfortunately. Roxie
fell and before he could recover, he
was hopelessly behind. The modest
and gentlemanly department of the
Cleveland boy, his speed and endur.
ance won for him as skater, the SYM
pathy and admiration of the audience,
which dispersed feeling that Roxie
could beat even 1.-the whirlwind of
the West"

By invitation your reporter had the
pleasure of spending an evening last
week at Bycicle Hall, The wheel
men were all amateurs, yet their ex
ercises were pleasing and entertaining
Several elegant machines grace the
hall, and with one exception-Cata-
falque-all models of art. The riders
ex hibited quite degree of skill and
grace. While the accomplishment as
byciclist is not the most useful one,
it certainly is very beneficial manner
of passing an unemployed evening as
the exercise develops physical strength
and activity, also imparts health and
pleasure to the participants.

AN intelligent correspondent of the
New York Mail and Express, writing
from Selt Lake, gives a graphic pic
ture of Sunday service in the Nor
mon Tabernacle. What struck him
most forcibly was the foreign appear
ance Of nine-tenths of the elders and
the evident failure on the part of the
audience to comprehend any part
of the discourse, except the mere
exhortation. But this stolidity,
this want of intellectual power,
Is the very greatest feature Of
their converts which the elders ap.
preciate the most highly. Three
quarters of the recruits to Mormon
don come from the illiterate classes in
this country and abroad. When an
intelligent man or woman joins the
Mormon church II Is generally ambi.
ton or lust which impels them. Ger
tainly no mature man or woman, bred
in other creeds, could believe In this
coarse caricature of religion, founded
on an alleged miracle which has been
proved to be the trick of q vulgar
charlatan.

THERE seems to be latent desire
ON the part of the Republicans on the
west side to present the name of Hiram
J. Knowles as candidate for dele.
gate. 1t wont do, and we say to the
gentlemen who are quietly but persist
emily urging him, that while the Re-
publicans in this end OF the territory
recognize Mr.. Knowles as a pleasant
and estimable gentleman and an
able lawyer, they fail to find in him
any of the qualities of standard bear
er. He had fair trial two years ago,
and through his lack of ability to
place himself en- rapport with the peo-
pie, came out second in the race when
u wiser choice wonld have won.
He should now stand back and not
seek to handicap us second time.
There is plenty of good timber in the
party and il will not be at all difficult
to select a candidate who can lead the
party to victory. 1t will be an easy
job with the right kind of man. The
Democrats have repeated their mis-
take of two years ago and this time
We should profit by it and our exper-
ience.

THE postmaster general has taken
an important step in his late order
designating all the postofiices in the
United states and territories as special

Der lst. On and after that date every
postmaster will be held responsible
for the immediate delivery of every
article of mailable matter properly
stamped with Especial delivery stamp,
directed to place within mile of the
postoffice. The issuance of this order,
and the tenor Of the instructions ac-
companying ii, go to show that the
government intends to make every
effort to make the special delivery sys.
tenn success. 1t will be interesting
TO notice what effect, If any, the new
move will have on the local messenger

many respects pertinent editorial
urges incorporation, and the passage
Of a bill by the next legislature grant.
ing us that boon. Being young and
inexperienced, it has yet to learn that
an act passed by Congress at lite recent
session prohibiting special legislation
in the territories will in all probability
operate against the passage of special
act of Incorporation for any munich
pality. Such is the opinion of our
leading lawyers, who think our only
relief is in getting the present general
incorporation act thoroughly over
hauled and shorn of its Objectionable
and conflicting features at the next
legislative session. and in time for us
TO apply for incorporation at our Feb
ruary term of court.
