those who become Government servants
do not SO think they should refuse to serve
the Government, or else their self-re-
spect and sense of propriety should make
them refuse additional compensation
from any source. The Governor of Utah
Territory, above all others, should refuse
to accept such additional compensation,
both on account of his position and the
peculiar circumstances surrounding Fed
eral officials in this Territory owing to the
local question. The Legislature of Utah
Territory don't care whether the Federal
officials here receive a single cent for
their services, and when appropriations
are made "for services of messenger, etc.,
for the Executive Office, it is not because
they have any solicitude on account of
the Executive Office. Governor Murray
was guilty OF a grave indiscretion in per-
mitting the Legislature to appropriate
$1,000 "for services of messenger. ETC.,
for the Executive office for the years

A Help to Good Digestion,

In the British Medical Journal, DIR. w.
Roberts, of England, discusses the effect
of liquors, tea, coffee, and cocoa on di.
gestion. Ali OF them retard the chenHL
cal processes, but most of them stimu-
late the glandular activity and muscular
contractions. Distilled spirits retard the
salivary or peptic digestion but slightly
when sparingly used.
Wines were found to be highly iniuri-
Gus to salivary digestion. On peptic di-
gestions all wines exert retarding infiu-
ence. They stimulate the glandular and
muscular activity of the stomach. Eff
fervescent wines exert the greatest
amount of good with the least harm to
digestion. When ones digestion is out
of order, everything goes awry, unless,
as in the case OF T. T. Seals, of Bellaire,
Ohio.
Tea, even in minute quantities, COM
pletely paralyzes the action of the saliva.
The tannin in strong tea is injurious.
Weak tea should te used, if at all.
Strong coffee is also injurious if used to
excess

AN ITEM.

In that very queer document, the Au-
ditor's report, there appears very curl
Gus item. 1t reads thus: 'Eli HI. MUIR
ray, Governor, for services of messen-
ger, etc., for the Executive office for the
years 1SS4-5, $1,000" The Legislature
of Utah Territory had no business to ap-
propriate the Territorial funds for any
such purpose, and Governor Murray had
no business to accept any such money.
Why the appropriation was made is not a
difficult matter to guess-it was sop
thrown to the Governor for the purpose
OF inducing him to approve other matters
in the appropriation bill. That bill con-
tanned no more improper item than the
one appropriating $4,000 "for services of
messenger, etc., for the Executive Office
for the years 1885," and if Governor
Murray did not know this he should have
known it. He must also have known
that the Utah Legislature, which passed
the bill containing this item, had no love
whatever for him, and regarded him as
an obstacle to the accomplishment OF
their ends,yet Governor Murray approved
the act of the Legislature giving him a
gratuity of $4,000, but refused to 60 on
with the rest of their scheme. Governor
Murray is the paid servant OF the General
Government. and it is part of his duty
to see that the Legislature makes no i'm
proper appropriations of the common
funds of the Territory. Does any Federal
official think it proper for the Territory to
give him largesses and gratuities? If
such there be they are highly improper
officials. If it is proper for the Territory
to appropriate $4,000 for messengers for
the Executive office" it is just as proper
for the city to do the same thing. The
Government pays its servants what it
thinks is just compensation. and if

virtue of his church position" Don't
they? Since when has this change come
over the spirit of Utah's political dream
The political authority and influence of
the leaders OF the Mormon church come
from their ecclesiastical position and not
from their personal worth and character.
Utah has a local government and this
government is republican in form, but
the nature and essence of this govern
ment can be best described in the Ian
guage of Justice Storey:
The people may, if they please, submit all
power to their rulers for the time being; but
then the government should receive its true
appellation and character. 1t 1Uould be q
government of tyrants, electiue, it is true, but
still tyrdnts.
Those who are familiar with matters
and things in Utah will recognize in the
above very good exposition of politics
in "our mountain home" We know
what answer the Nsws will make to this ::
it will say that Justice Story was Fed

ECONOMICAL VS.. POOR LIVING.
Mistakes Made by Many Writers
When Treating of Kitchen
Economies.

This is the season of the year when al
most every paper has some advice, more
or less senseless, upon the subject of
economical living, addressed to those
whose small incomes are supposed to re-
quire special care in administration. The
trouble with most of these articles-and
they seem to be unusually common this
| falls that in general the writer con-
founds economical, or cheap, living with
| poor, and most of the bills of fare that
are formulated upon such an idea,
simply detestable. Within certain limits
the best is the cheapest, and, per contra,
the poorest is never the most economical
Writers on cheap living lay down as
one of the fundamental rules that vege-
tables should not be omitted from the
bill of fare of any person, however mod
crate his income, and usually proceed to
put in cabbage and turnips as such vege-
tables, when all the world knows that
they are about as indigestable and unnu-
tritious as any thing that grows. Why
these table economists do not go one
step further and recommend hay and cut
straw instead of cabbages and turnips is
a mystery known only to themselves.
Cabbage contains seventy-three parts of
nutriment in each 1000, and turnips
forty-two, while potatoes contain 120,
oats 14S, beans 800, peas dry $50, and
parsnips, squash, apples and onions rank
high as nutritious, easily digested, and
wholesome vegetables for the table.
The truth is that cabbages and turnips
are the most expensive articles of common
vegetable food poor man can put upon
his table. They are grown for beasts,
and their proper place is the barnyard.
The same rule applies to meats. The
poor-food economist advises the purchase
of beef shins, neck pieces, fore quarter
veal, spareribs, and other cuts made up
of seventh tenths bone and two-tenths
gristle to one of meat. The theory is that
poor man can take out the nine-tenths
bone and gristle, supply its place with
water, and make a soup with the one
tenth meat. When he has thrown away
his bone and refuse he will find the meat
has cost him double price, however cheap
the water may be. 1t is waste OF money
to buy such stuff. A fair roast OF beef,
good boiling piece, or a supply of corn
beef costs only a trife more than shins
and rumps, but they are far more econ
omical. Fish is better and cheaper than
veal, and mutton is better than pork.
Poor living is not by any means econom-
ical living. g.-Chicago NeDs.

MARRIAGE BY DEGREES.
The Peculiar r Customs Observed at a
Polish wedding at Pittsburg.

A Polish wedding and honeymoon has
just been celebrated on Josephine street
The ceremony, owing to its protracted ma
ture and the wedding costume peculiar to
the Polish people, attracted considerable
attention in that section of the city. The
bride is pleasant little woman and
speaks English fluently, but the groom
has not been in the country long enough
to have full command of the language.
They were married at the Polish church
by their priest, Father Myskavi, in the
presence OF a number of friends. After
the formal ceremony the party repaired
to the BRIDES home, where reception
was given which lasted for three days.
The wedding took place in. the morning
and fine breakfast was served to the
company at S o'clock, after which the
dancing and merry-making began, and
was not allowed to stop or even flag until
midnight. The company then dispersed
to meet again at noon on the next day,
and the same programme was executed
from day to day until the marriage feast
was ended
The bride and groom separated each
night of the festivities, bidding every one
good night, and only after the marriage
feast is ended is the happy couple consid-
cred married
One of the unique features OF the nup-
tial feast is the manner in which the bride
receives the presents. Every gentleman
present is expected to dance with her at
least once, and as much oftener as he
chooses, and each time he asks her to
assist him in the dance he must give her
either a handsome present, or sum of
money. So if the tender bride is good
looking, amiable and a good dancer she
cannot fail to realize rich benefit from
the feast The bride received over $3.50
in money, and her presents were both
substantial and pretty.
The dancing is OF wild, furious nature,
in which any one but thorough expert
would be foolhardy to engage, for when
the orchestra gets properly wound up and
the dancers begin to gyrate in time to the
exciting music they remind an on-looker
of the frail leaves which are caught up
and madly tossed by an amateur cyclone.
One of the Polish gentlemen who par
ticipated in the recent festivity was asked
if three days was not pretty long time
to continue wedding.
"Oh, no. he said. eff you want to
see genuine wedding, go to Poland,
where they last never less than week or
ten days. We workingmen don't get
time to have good wedding here."-

ECCLESIASTS IN UTAH.
The Ne'rs of last night in reviewing the

The News of last night in reviewing the
Governors message says:
He wants the exercise of political power
by ecclesiastical authority abolished in Utah.
No ecclesiast in Utah holds political
authority under the Territorial government
by virtue of his church position. Every
church minister has the right to use his in
fuence in politics as much as an infdel, a
drunkard and debauchee. If respected
church official gains more influence by his
precepts and example than politician who
betrays his greed for power and pelf, or a
Federal official who vilifies the people whom
he would like to rule for his own advantage,
so much the better for the church official
and the people, and so much chagrin for the
scheming adventurers.
There is about as much nonsense and
untruth in that as it is possible to utter
in the same number of words. "No &C.
