Indispensable Factors In JOURNALISM.
The three great requisites for woman
journalist are good health, good sense
and good temper. Armed with these
any girl who really wishes to enter jour
nalism and has knack at writing may
hope for success. There is always mar
ke+ for the best work, and editors are
progressive people, who recognise fully
the growing need Of feminine represento-
ton in the newspapers whose readers are
30 largely women. For women Ia gen
eral read the papers more and nore
every year, and those among them who
have an instinct which tells them what
the rest wish to read may hope for a
hearing for what they have to say. This
suggests the naming Of an indispensable
factor in journalism which is hard to de-
scribe to the outside aspirant. Among
writer's for the daily press it is called
"the newspaper nose, and unless one
one has his nose, at least in a rudiment-
airy stage, one need not expect to make a
good journalist. In other words, unless
one has gift at discrimination, Of know
ing what people want to read, Of grasp
ing the spirit Of the week, SO to speak,
one can not become good newspaper
writer, no matter what capabilities she
may have in what is called distinosively
literary work.-Boston Record.

I wish nature would take lesson from

with false teeth is away ahead of the I'M

If RAILROAD construction may be &C
cepted as an indication of the trade and
business prospects of the country-and
it is usually so accepted--the year 1886
has been great Improvement over
1885. Up to October 1st, 1874 miles OF
new railroad have been Laid, while the
construction last year up to October Ist
was ,696 miles and in 1884, 2,6I9 miles.
Four times'the figures of this year have
been exceeded, namely, 1872, 1881, 1882
and 1888. The belief among railroad
builders and fnancieTs is that there
viii be stealthy growth in railroad
construction for a series of years, or
until the business again goes mad as it
did in 1872, when another collapse will
occur. 1t is also said that general trade
viii keep pace with railroad building.
and that for three or four years more
the country will indulge in one of its
periods of business prosperity. 1t is to
be hoped the representations will
prove correct.

THE OLD STORY.


1t will be seen by our dispatches this
morning, that the great stock yards
strike in Chicago is drawing to close
The conflict ends in complete victory
for the proprietors of those establish
ments, the workmen yielding every
point IN the contest, and are to return
to work on the old ten hour system
Delegate Barry, sent from the general
assembly of the knights of Labor con
vened at Richmond, Va, expects to ask
for the discharge of noR-union men,
but even if that request is denied
the men will return to work
Armour & Co., one of the principal
firms involved in this contro-
yersy, appears very independent
OF the union men, and had an opinion
that he could run his establishment
Independent of employing their mem
bers, and expresses a determination not
to discharge the non-union men he has
employed The strike will result In dis
aster for the working men, since they
have failed in their attempt to force on
their employers the eight hour rule,
and large Numbers will find their places
filed by new men, and they without
employment at a season of the year
when they most need it.

THE SPARROW MUST GO.

Government, through the. Oraitho,o-
gical bureau of the Department Of
Agriculture, has been inquiring into
the habits. tastes and department Of
the pugilistic little visitor from Britain.
the English sparrow and has ascertained
that all are bad. It was expected when
tn sparrow was imported that he
would wax fat on the worms which
inflicted the country, while as q conse-
quence the worms. would grow lean and
sc4rce. The results have not been as
anticipated. The sparrow has IN
creased and multiplied amazingly, and
has waxed fat and saucy, but not on
diet of worms. He has lived on grain
and fruit 10 the great disgust and cost
of the farmers and orchardists. More
than this, the spSrrows have prov en-
the friends and protectors of the de-
insects, by driving away the birds which
live on worms. As a consequence the
insect pests have increased as rapidly
as the sparrows in the districts where

now proposes the destruction of the
marauders, and will employ men to
tain hawks for the purpose, the idea
being that an industrious hawk can

pests.
a better plan it strikes as, would be
to offer a small bounty on sparrow
heads, and turn the boys loose with
snare and iipper. The hanging up of a.
medal in this city last spring, as a re-
ward to the one who would kill the
most sparroWs, resulted in the destruc-
ton of several thousands of the birds
within the course of two or
three weeks, when the slaughter
was practically discontinued owing
to the interference in their be-
half of some friends of the nuisance.
Had the work of destruction been con-
tiDued with the same degree of earnest
ness that was manifested at points to-
day the sparrow would have been a
rara avis indeed in Salt Lake. AS it was
the evil was greatly lesseRed and it is
doubtful If it viii ever again resch its
former proportions. The sparrow must
go. The people have so decreed, and
the government lends its authorization
to the verdict of determination.

SILK CULTURE.

Last year there was imported nearly
81, 900, 600 worth of reeled silk. and it is
said that if the cocoons which entered
into this silk had been produced in this
country it would have added $50, 600, 900
to the incomes of our farmers, and
given employment to 1900 persons to
operate the machinery necessary to
convert the cocoons into raw silk.
Largely through the representations
and eEierts of ladies interested in seri-
culture, Congress at its last session
made an appropriation to enable the
Commissioner of Agriculture TO CONVEX
the cocoons into raw silk. The Com
missioner is now having set up in Wash
ington six automatic silk reels, which he
proposes to operate next year. Some
time ago the Commissioner issued
8 circular 70 cocoon-rAisers. informing
them Of the governments readiness to
purchase their products. The result Is
that be is nos receiving cocoons, usu-
ally in small lots, and some of them are
said by the Italian expert in the depart
ment to be better than the European
average. The Commissioner hopes to
be able to demonstrate the PRACTICABLE
ity Of Keeling silk economically in the
United States, and if he succeeds, silk
culture viii assuredIy develop into an
important industry OF the country, as
1t has been proven satisfactorily that
the worms thrive amazingly in most
parts OF The United States. Utah has
made some progress IN seTicUl;ure, but
lack Of means has prevented that de-
gree Of success which those engaged in
the industry are entitled to by reason Of
their energy and determination.

Making the admission OF State into
the Union dependent upon the consent
of minority in the State to be ad

altogether at variance with the idea
that in popular governments majorities
govern. The resolution was uncaI e
for, and being political in its character
was out OF place in a religious confer

adopted until the committee which is
