IT is observed that Assistant District
Attorney Yarian has been addressing
the citizens of Park City in the interest
of the Loyal LEAGUE. The Loyal Leagr e
is political organization, and Mr.. Va
rian is a Federal office-holder; but it is
hardly to be presumed that the Presi-
dent will bring his civil service order
out this far to get scalp. Besides, as
the Loyal League is fighting the Nor
mons, Mr.. Cleveland may regard it as
part of the duties of Federal officials to
take an active part in the affairs of the
League. 1t may be remarked, however,
that prosecuting attorney in no other
part of the Union would retain his
office long after it had come to the
knowledge of the President that the
former was going about the country or
ganizing societies which had for their
chief object the depriving of the peol lie
of their social and political rights.

"A PARAGRAPH which originated in an
Idaho paper to the effect that Idaho is
the only Territory which returned q
Republican Delegate to the Fiitieth
Congress, is still making the round of
the newspapers. The truth of the mat
ter is. that the Territories send divided
delegation 10 the Fiftieth Congress,
the representation, politically, being
the same as in the present House. A
Democrat succeeds a Republican from
Arizona, but this is oounterbslanced bv
8 Republican from Idaho following a
Democrat. Dakota sends q Republican.
and so does Wyoming, no Democratic
nomination having been made in tbe
latter Territory. Democrats were re-
tnrned from Montana. New Mexico.
Utah and Washington and eli these
have Democrats in The Forty-ninth

The Goodness Of an Old Colonel.

The coolest man ever knew was old
Victor de St Hilaire, the colonel Of an
infantry regiment that saw some service in
Algeria" said Col Henry Dubois-one Of q
party of French officers Now it happened
that in Col St Hilaire's regiment there was
a peppsry young sub-lieutenant, who was as
hot as the colonel was cool With him was
always las you English say a word and q
blow, and the blow first He had fought
SO many duels that the soldiers used to call
him Sudden Death, and to say that tho
best way to end the war would be for him
to challenge the enemy's whole army, man
by man
We'll, one day this lieutenant had COM
mitted some fault, for which the colonel
gave him such a scolding that the young
fellows hot blood couldn't bear it any
longer. Quick as lightning he whipped out
a pistol and fired right at St Hilaire's face,
so close that the muzzle almost touched
him But the pistol missed fire and the
colonel said, quite coolly, Forty eight
hours arrest for not keeping your arms in
proper ORDER" And was that all the
lieutenant gotf asked dozen voices at
once, in undisguised amazement That
was all; and l can tell you that he thought
it was quite enough-Hal general, good
evening l was just telling these gentle
men how You once put me under arrest for
not having my pistols in working order. "

| 4 Sacred Subject to Texas Hotsl-Ksspsf
Indignant Covboys-silenesd.
At San Antonio-storied San Antonio,
where Davy Crockett fell, and Maj Bowie
fell, and where cruel Santa Anna made the
Alamo slippery with the best blood Of
America-clasEic San Antonio, the next old
sst city in America after st Augustine
San Antonio, was going on TO say, some
Of the cowboys persuaded . western bound
old gentleman to call for broiled beefsteak.
And surely it is an innocent thing to ask for
broiled beefsteak. For 10 not this the
great cattle lan1s It Is true we have no
milk here It is likewise true that the tons
and hundreds Of tons Of oleomargarine
which Chicago blandly profess to ship to
New York is shipped to Texas, and even 70
far as down here In chihuahua, Mexico
But why may . man not ask for Q broilsd
beefsteak in classic and storied San Antonio
without having fight on his handa
Because-simply because the old man who
keeps the cowboy hotel here, and where 20
many Of the honest travellers 20 to find the
cowboy in all his glory, does not believe in
burning up" q beefsteak, a be calls it He
is an old man and an honest man, be says,
and has kept hotel for forty years; and he
says: "A man that viii brol q beefsteak
will steal a horse. Fry it; yes, sab, fry it
in its native tallerl Sam Houston fried his
steak; so did Davy Crockett; % did Maj
Bowie, sab" You must understand that
the cowboys, knowing The old mans pecu-
iarity ON this theme, the sacred subject Of
beefsteak, had many . time before taken
strangers there with their heads full Of
praise for the broiled bsefsteak Of this an
Gent and not very elegant hotel You
must also bear in mind that Bob Ingersou
has trenendous following when be SAWS he
would hang Q man for frying q beefsteak
sooner than for murder" This meek old
man with q white necktie, whom the COW
boys had persuaded to 60 to this old hotel
to get a broiled beefsteak, was one Of Bob

steak was concerned And his face was .

then lifted his head, and, all sweetness,

for one Of his famous broiled beefsteaks.

cowboys rolled to the floor, and roared as
they rolle1 It was the battle Of the San

That old hotelkeeper dug up all the old,
iron-clad, and rusty oaths to be found in

THE SERVANTS OF ARisTocRAcY.

Sleek Sycophants Within Doors and an
InsOlent, Dangerous Rabble Without.
Footmen are principally for ornament
Dressed finer than their masters, fed often
as well-for they drink up the heeltaps at
dinner, and pilfer the pates and jellies, no
doubt, as they take them down-stairs-they
lead a lazy life, sitting on cushioned car
riages, or Longing in front of shops and
palaces, with benches placed for them on
the pavements while they wait They are
always conspicuous figures on the drive or
at dinner, at the opera or ball
IL a stranger to the customs and the Ian
guage should suddenly be thrust into the en-
trance-room at a London ball, he might
easily suppose that these lordly creatures, in
their breaches of plush and hose Of silk, with
their silver buckles and powdered hair, their
easy manners and constant bows, were the
especial dignitaries Of the occasion; while
without, the throng Of fifty or hundred
fuffkeys bringing up carriages or waiting
to be called, watching the company coming
and going. handing out the ladies, and
taking orders from the gentlemen, make a
part Of the scene as actually as the palmer
dressed aristocrats whom they serve.
They lose all their elegance on the pave
ment-crowding, chattering, pushing, in
sulting the gentlemen whom they do not
know and criticising the ladies they do,
necessarily shouting, Lady Somebody's
carriage" Coming up" Setting down.
-Gone for the carriage as often in mock
cry as in earnest, and altogether as insolen.
and dangerous a rabble rs can be seen any
where in the world. A parcel Of scamps in
a lookup suddenly left uncontrolled could
hardly be vulgarer or ruder. They seem
to revenge themselves for the restraints
they submit to all the rest Of their lives
Here the aristocrats are ut their mercy.
They must have their carriages and they
can't get them themselves; and the lackeys
delight in annoying and disappointing and
delaying them, with only half the show OF
serving.
One can fancy what the class might be
capable OF in a revolution A night scene
in front of the London ball makes one think
OF the poissardeS and peetroleuses of Paris.
The contrast with the sleek sycophancy
within doors is terrible in its suggestiveness
