EVEN some members Of the old guard,
who train by the mOssbaok manual. are
getting skeery over the attempt to make
close corporation of the democracy,
and allow no men a place in the prima-
ries who will not vote the whole ticket,
local. county, state and national from a
to lizard. The plea is being made "that
any man who has always been demo-
Orat and has never deserted the flag"
should be allowed his own little bunting
when 1t comes to local matters, but the
plea is not allowed. A democrat in
whom there is no guile is man who
has no god but that of his party, no will
but that Of the convention, no opinions
but those formulated in the platform.

The free trade heresy is as insidi GUS
in its operations as the opium habit.
The more one takes of the drug the more
he needs, and the more he INDUCES the
habit, the more unreal do his visions be-
come. Just so with these free trade ad-
vocates. They revel in the intoxiea-
tons Of their blissful theories, too apt to
forget the unsubstantial nature of their
reveries until awakened by the galvanic
shock Of practical business statesman
ship, when they come up all standing
like q man just aroused from a night
mare. II may be heaven to get drunk
on theory, but 1t is shoel to have to
sober Of on hard facts.

A VIGOROUS kick is being made in the
French chamber of deputies, and outside
it, against the proposed expulsion Of
the princes. The chairman of the depu-
ties committee on expulsion is decidedly
opposed to any act of expulsion, and for
the sake of republican principles in
Europe it is sincerely to be hoped that
the views entertained by Manet will OBJ
tain. Republioanism in France must be
pitiably weak when 1t cannot tolerate
the presence Of the descendants of roy
atty on the soil of their ancestors. The
princes should be placed on the same
footing as all other cItizens-made amen
able to the laws and punished as any
other subjects for any breach Of the pub
lie peace. There is a strong sentiment
in France fayoring such course, and it
is not unlikely that it may yet prevail in
the chamber of deputies.

TIE BoTToM DRAWER Il saw my
wife pull out the bottom drawer of the old
family bureau this evening, and | went
softly out aud wandered up aud down until
| knew she had gone to her sewing We
have some things laid away in that drawer
which the gold Of kings could not buy,
and yet they are relies which grieve US
both until both our hearts are sore. |
haven't looked at them for year, but
remember each article. There are two
worn shoes, a little chip hat with part of
the rim gone, some stockings, trousers, and
a coat, two or three spoo!s, bits of broken
crocxery, Il ship aud several toys. Wife
poor thinS-goes to the drawer every day
of her life, and prays over it, and let's her
tears fall upon the precious articles but
dare not 60.
Sometimes We speak of little Jack, but
not often. 1t has beeu long time, but
somehow we cant get over srieving He
was burst Of sunshine iuto our lives and
his going away has been like covering our
everyday existcucc with pail Sometimes
when we sit alnue Of evenings, | writing
and she sewing, child on the street will
ca il out as our boy used TO aud VIC will
both start up with beating hearts and
wild hope, ouly to fud the darkness more
OF burden than ever. 1t is SO still and so
quiet now. loUk up at the window
where his blue eyes used to sparkle at my
coming, but he is not there. listen for
his pai,iog feet, his merry shout and his
ringing laugh, but there is no sound.
There is no Que to climb over my knees,
no one to search my pockets and tease for
presents and never find the chair turned
over, the broom down, or the rope tied to
the knobs.
L want some one to tease me for nv
knife; to ride OH my shoulders to lose my
axe to follow me to the gate When l GO,
and to be there when | come houc to
call good night trom the little bed now
empty and wife, she misses him still more.
There arc no little feet to wash, no prs ycrs
to say, no voice teasing for Jumps of sugar,
or sobbing with pain Of hurt toe; and
she would give her own life, almost, to
awake at midnight aud look across to the
crib and see our boy as he used to be. So
we preserve our relics aud when we arc
dead We hope that strangers will handle
them teuderly, even if they shed no tears
over them.-BarJers' Ca=cttc.

DEATH OF SENATOR MILLER.

A brief dispatch from Washington, re-
ceived at late hour to-day, announces
the death in that city this afternoon o
Senator John F. Miller of California.
Senator Miller was born in Indiana, in
1881, his parents being Virginians. In
1852 he graduated at the New York State
Law School, and soon thereafter went to
California and entered upon the practice
of law. In 1850 he entered the army as
Colonel of the Twenty-ninth Indiana
Volunteers, and was soon placed in COM
mand ofa brigade, serving under Sherman,
Buell., Rosecrans and Thomas, and receiv-
ing severe wounds in the battles of Stone
River and Liberty Gap. In July, 1868,
he was laid out on the battlefield with
shot through the eye. A year later he
returned to duty minus an eye and richer
only by. the increased pay which came
with his promotion to the rank of Briga-
dier-General.
In 1866 he returned to San Francisco,
with commission as Collector of that
Port, in which capacity he served for four
years and declined reappointment. At
the close of his term he fell in with General
Lowell III. Rosseau, whom President John
son had sent to Alaska as United
States Commissioner to receive that Ter
ritory from the Russian authorities, and
a man named Hutchison, to whom GER
tain fur-hunting privileges had been
granted. General Miller and Hutchison
formed what is known as the Alaska |
Commercial Company, and it enriched |
both and others beside. Honors followed |
riches in rapid succession, and in 1881 he
was elected to the Senate from California |
as a Republican, to succeed Newton
Booth, and took his seat March 4th of
that year.
General Miller was liberal with his
wealth, though not wasteful The cause
of his death is not mentioned in the
dispatch, but is supposed to be dis
ease very similar to asthma.

THE DUSKIN CASE.

A Washington dispatch, published in
our telegraphic columns to-day, states
that during the present week, commenc-
ing this afternoon, the time of the Senate
will be almost exclusively taken up in
the discussion of the resolutions reported
from the Judiciary Committee concerning
the refusal of the Attorney General to
transmit to the Senate, in executive ses-
sion, all the papers in the Duskin case.
In this case the Senate adopted a reso-
luton directing the Attorney General to
transmit copies of all documents and pa
pers that have been filed in the Depart
ment of Justice since January LIST, 1885,
in relation to the management and
conduct of the office of District
Attorney of the United States for the
Southern District of Alabama. The an
swer of the Attorney General was that
the papers referred to have exclusive
reference to the suspension by the Presi-
dent of George M. Duskin, and at is not

SHOULD MEMoRIALIzE CONGRESS

The suggestion is made by the Nor
mon press that copies of all the bills
vetoed by Governor Murray should be
sent on to Washington and laid before
Congress, and that before adjourning the
Legislature should adopt memorial ask
ing Congress to give. this Territory such
relief as, under the. circumstances, NAV
in the wisdom of that body be deemed
necessary. .55;31.,r
1t is to be hoped that the suggestion
will be acted upon. Before the bills are
sent on to Washington, the brethren
should not forget to attach copies of the
veto messages, for obvious reasons. And
asto memorializing Congress for relief,
that is something which should be done
by all means. The new Edmunds bill
still remains in the hands of the House
Judiciary Committee, and memorial
from the Utah Legislature would un-
doubtedly resolve the committee to re-
port it instanter and the House to pass it
with a rush.
The members,of both houses of Con-
gress are just now in an excellent humor
to consider memorials from Mormon
Legislature, and it is our solemn belief
that if the proper representations are
now made in Washington, the Saints will
not only get all the legislation they want,
but good deal more than even they
have the assurance to ask for. Oh, by
all means, send ON memorial

IN MUCH THE SAME FIX.

A dispatch from Louisville says Ken
lucky, like Utah, is truly in bad way.
Her treasury is empty, she is bonded to
the utmost constitutional limit. and the
Legislature shows no signs of doing any,
thing to relieve her. On Thursday last
for the first time in the history of the
grand old commonwealth, members of
the Legislature could not get their war
rants for salaries cashed because of a
lack of funds. This" says the dispatch.
lis the heaviest blow yet dealt the
Legislature. Many of the havseed states
men draw their money every two or
three days, and the idea of not getting it
for some time will be the only thing that
will force them to an early adjournment.
The Legislature has already exceeded
the legal session, and but five bills of a
public character have been squeezed
through"
The prospect before the Utah legis-
lators is equally bright, for it seems they
are determined not to make any pro-
vision for the payment of the Territory's
to the General Government,
Salt Lake evening Democrat. [volume] (Salt Lake City, Utah) 1885-1887, 1886-03-08

considered that the public interest will
be promoted by compliance with said
resolution and the transmission of the
papers and documents therein mentioned
to the Senate in executive session"
The Judiciary Committee, to whom the
matter was referred, returned majority
report, maintaining that the Senate had
an undoubted right to examine the papers
called for, but the Democratic members
the Committee, in aminority report, deny
that right in this case, or in any case
when the papers relate exclusively or
materially to removals or suspensions by
the President. "No such resolution as
that now before the Senate,' says the
minority report, twas ever obeyed.
Every precedent cited in the report of the
majority has for its foundation the consti-
tutional power of the Senate to partici-
pate with the President in the official act
to which the papers called for related.
The demand in the present case upon the
Attorney-General necessarily implies that
in the judgment of the majority of the
committee the Senate has the same
power over removals that it has over ap-
pointments.
'In conclusion" the report says, "the
Of your committee are gratifed
at being able to state that in the Forty
sixth Congress, when the Democrats had
a majority in the Senate, no such specta-
Gle as that now exhibited to the country
was ever witnessed in the history of its
