A PECULIAR PROCEEDING

The Legislature met yesterday at the
appointed hour and organized. In the
organization of the Council very pecu
liar proceeding took place. The Council
elected as its chief clerk Mr.. Heber NJ
Wells. Mr.. Wells is thoroughly com.
petent person to fill that position, and tc
Mr.. Wells personally no one will object
Such beng the case, people will natur-
ally ask why his appointment as CHIEF
clerk is peculiar. 1t is peculiar for this
reason: Mr.. Wells is the City Recorder
ofSalt Lake City, and if he attends to the
duties of his Office as City Recorder he
cannot attend to his duties as chief clerk,
and uice versa. The Council should not
have elected Mr.. Wells their chief clerk.
and Mr.. Wells should have refused to
accept the position under the circum-
stances. Mr.. Wells is competent for
either position, but there never lived a
man who is competent to fill both posi-
tons at the same time.

KNOWS ALL ABOUT IT.

1t appears from special in the Tribune
OF this morning that Mr.. Joseph Nimmo,
Jr., ex-Chief of the Bureau of Statistics,
has been talking about the situation in
Utah and how to solve our local prolem.
He knows all about things in Utah, and
with nonchalance and assurance quite
refreshing and truly amazing, Mr.. Nimmo
declares that the new Edmunds bill will
prove entirely inadequate to the ex-
igencies of the case" Whether that is
SO or not depends upon what the
exigencies of the case are. The telegram
referred to speaks of Mr. Nimmo as one
entitled to pronounce judgment on the
Utah question er cdthedrG because che
was there (here) during the recent
trouble He carefully studied the Nor
mon question, discussed it with the Fed
eral officials and the Mormon leaders in
Salt Lake" This is probably the most
wonderful and thorough preparation that
any one has ever had for the study of the
Mormon question. No man can come to
this Territory and in stay of two or
three weeks become acquainted with the
Utah question. 1t is very presump
tious person who will boast of his
knowledge OF the situation in Utah and
undertake to say what is needed here for
the cure of our evils and what is made
quate to deal successfully with them, and
any man in Utah who ;has any real
knowledge OF affairs here will tell such a
person that he is not at all competent to
suggest remedies to mend matters here.
Strangers who come to Utah and in few
days know all about matters here and
rush into print to tell what they know,
display far more ignorance than acumen.
Joseph Nimmo, Jr., says thatthe remedy
for the Utah problem is to establish a
Legislative Commission. For the sake of
illustration let that be taken as the case,
still, it is a certainty that Joseph Nimmo,
Jr., could tell what are the things
to be remedied in Utah, and without a
thorough knowledge of the evils to be
remedied, how can a man tell what
remedy is proper in the case? When a
man in few days time can master
political problem that has puzzled, the
foremost statesmen of the country for a
quarter of a century, and knows the
remedy by which that problem can be
solved, such man is a great light in his
generation, and he is the man to put in
charge of the remedy. Whether Mr.
Nimmo's remedy is the proper one can
only be known upon application, but as
he is a Republican, an ex-Chief of the
Bureau OF Statistics, was in Utah during
"the recent trouble" and studied the
Mormon question in its home for whole
week, we must presume that his remedy
is the only one, for certain it is that he
according to himself) knows all about it.

When to Judge q Woman.

A bachelor writing to the Pail Mall Ga
setts, thinks the best hour to Judge of a
woman is in the morning What is the
most favorable time to see a woman in
order to compose character synopsis
Decidedly, I think lat breakfast and during
the forenoon. As general rule if she
looks well then she is in good health; if
she dresses neatly then she is tidy, and
if she is full Of projects Tor a mornings
work-executes a reasonable number
she possesses mental activity and bodily
energy. Beware of the young woman
who complains of being cold in the morn
ing, who looks sickly, who comes down
late, who appears to have dressed hast
lily, who languishes whole forenoon
over couple OF letters to an absent sis
ter or schoolfellow. No matter how
bright and animated she may appear
further on, avoid her. Lead her not to
suburban villa; engage no matrimonial
apartments. She will not make a good
wife. She will be bore and slattern.

THE CHESS CHAMPIONS.

The great chess champions, Wilhelm
Steinitz and ]. II. Zukertort, met in New
York yesterday for the purpose of playing
series of games to decide as to who is
the better player. When two such men
meet to battle upon the.chess board, well
may it be said that two giants have met.
These two men stand without rivals in
the world of chess players, and all lovers
and admirers of that truly scientific game
will watch with interest the result of the
games now progressing in New York.
Neither of these greatest living chess
players is such wonderful and brilliant
player as was Paul Morphy. As chess
player Morphy will be for all time the
wonder and despair OF all lovers of the
royal game. Morphy was to chess what
Zera Colburn was to mathematics and
Master Betty to acting. OF him the play
ers OF chess may well say with Hamlet,
as ne contemplated Yorick's skull-tWe
shall not soon look up his like again.
DR.. Zukertort was in our city year or
so ago and played against some of our lo-
cal chessmen. The Doctor met better
mettle than he could have wished. At
the residence of Mr. Arthur Pratt he
played two consultation games, the gen.
tlemen playing in consultation against
him being Mr.. Arthur Pratt, Professor
Orson Pratt, Mr.. Harmel Pratt and Mr..
Josiah Barnett. In these games Col.
VIM. Nelson acted as caller. In one of
the games DIR. Zukertort gave
knight, while the other one was an even
game. The gentlemen playing in con-
sultation against the eminent English
PLAYER won both games. For them to
Salt Lake evening Democrat. [volume] (Salt Lake City, Utah) 1885-1887, 1886-01-12

win such a victory was great honor to
them and reflected great credit upon our
city. The Doctor did not give them the
praise that was due theirskill and strength,
but rather excused himself on the ground
of carelessness. This ungraciousness was
not complimentary to the Doctors gener-
osity, and his excuse for being defeated
was not one calculated to add anything
to his reputation, nor would frank ac-
knowledgment of the actual merit of the
gentlemen by whom he was beaten have
detracted from his justly great reputa-
ton.

Mr., Whltthorne, the newly appointed
Senator from Tennessee, spent q good
deal Of time In Washington last sum

Congress and had peIformC d u most I'M
pOftant work aa the Chairman Of the
investigating Con mlttee OF the House,
which brought 10 light and established

Mr., Nhitihorne, through his long OK

SPEECH OF SENATOR BECK


The rostoillce appropriation bill was
then taken up, on which MIR. Beck had
the floor.
MIR. Beck said the provision under dis
cussion had nothing TO do with the pts
tai service. but simply looked 10 the
building up OF our commercial Tola.
tions, Appropriation bills should not
Include new legi' lAtlon, He insisted
that II was bad policy for the Republl-
cane TO force on the Admll istrati0n pro.
Visions against which the President, the
Postmaster General and the House Of
Representatives oil protested. The Sen
at0r from Maine (Mr, Fryc) Ind sought
TO make the foreign mail proyiglon u
mandatory one;but the Postmaster Gen.
eral had shown 10 the committee that II
would be 10 detrimental TO the public
service that the majority Of the commit
tee had not been able TO submit 10 H..
The amendment proposed by tho com.
mlttee limited the Postmaster General,
however, 10 American yessela, and he
was 10 make c0ntr6ca for I've years.
Senators on the other side, Mr.. Beck said,
had not been slow 10 endeay0r 10 ON
Oarrass the Administration for poll iral
advantage, but they were going too far
IN endeavorlng TO force on the President
aud the Postmaster General, nOtwilh-
star ding their protest, u course that
they had shown was not for the good Of
the public service, and which would
only result In giving q bounty or eubg.-
dy t0a few porsone. He dwolt with
emphasis on the spectacle Of on active
commercial people permitting their
mails TO lilo In the p0stc0lce day ufler
day waiting for slow suboi-
died vessel 10 eall, while there was
swift vessel at tho dock ready 10
carry tho malls at once. Under the pro.
posed arrangement the Postmaster Con.
eral might know that foreign ship,
which was ready 10 sail, would ineure
the delivery OF the mall live or even ten
days ahead Of tho slow American built
ship, but he would be compelled TO allow
the mails 10 walt for days until the slow
vessel was ready To sail. The matter
was rendered more extraordinary whom
we remembered that tho swift vessel
was willing 10 take the mails for ono
tenth the compensation which would be
paid TO the slow vessel, Yet tho Post
Office Department was required TO see
that the malls were carried with expe-
dition.
The object Of this proposed amend
ment was TO give bounty TO certain
steamship lines In tho hope that trade
could thus be built up. That was
q matter not for tho Postofllce Depart.
ment, but for tho Senate Committee on
Commerce. The present bill was post
office appropriation bill, not o bill to
develop commerce. As TO the effect Of
subsidies, Mr.. Beck quoted q variety Of
statistics TO show that subsidies had
never increased our foreign commerce.
