The Result of a Dog Eight.

The Mcclellan and Dunyon families of
Tooele have just passed crisis which
threatened to terminate in blood. The
dogs oil the respective families INDUCED in
genuine catch-as-catch-can fight, and in
separating them one of the Nickel
lar boys was bitten by the Dunyon
dog. This morning the Dunyons were on
their way to Salt Lake with several
friends in their wagon when young Nc
Keliar rode up and placing himself di-
rectly in front of the team leveled a
double-barrel shot gun at the party and
demandedthatt the Dunyon dog which was
in the wagon should be delivered up.
and replied "if that's your little game fire
away" Young Mcclellan concluded to
give up, his bluff and rode off considerably
crest fallen.

Dement'S Detective Work.

Surveyor-General Dement,, OF Utah, is
now dining sumptuously on dirt pie. He
first gave the correspondents a detailed
and startling account OF huge land frauds
in which Senators, Representatives and
many other high officials were alleged to
be implicated, and for day posed as a
mighty detective and wondrous worker
in the cause of reform. Then he was
called before the Senate Committee on
Public Lands to make good his charges,
but instead he ingloriously backed down,
and declared that he had given utterance
to no interview on the land question, and
that the correspondents had lied. Now
the correspondents are prepared to prove
that Dement, not only furnished the pub
lished statements, but also supplied the
paper on which they were written. De-
ment is certainly up to his eyes in trouble.
His ears, of course, can't be over-topped.

How to Consult DIR. Foote. sr., by Mail

DIR. Foote, Senior, author of "Plain
Home Talk, y" Medical Common Sense, .
etc, etc, would say to those who would
IKE to consult him by mail that they can
have list OF questions and circular of
gratuitous advice by addressing Box Ala.
Salt Lake City. The doctor has arranged
to have such information supplied in this
way to save time. Receiving such printed
matter the correspondent can describe
ms or her case fully and direct it to the
doctor, in New York. Dir. Foote is
successfully treating all forms OF chronic
diseases, a specially TO which he has de-
voted thirty years Of study and practice
Evidences of his success can also be had
by addressing Box Ala, as above, but ali
letters OF consultation and orders for
remedies should be addressed to DIR. ID.

Eight Hours n Day.

The agitation of the eight hour law il
gaining some Roadway again, and il Is
possible that a movement in favor of its
adoption may, with the Government set
ting the example, obtain considerable
momentum. On previous occasions when
this subject has been presented TO em-
ployers 1t has been resisted with more or
less earnestness, but it is certain that
now in great many lines OF industry no
great opposition would be made to il.
Where the piece system does not pre-.
vail at 1t would come into force immedi
ately after the change in the hours of
work, and thus, while efficient men
might make as much in eight hours ms
they do now under the day-work plan. n
large number of employees would find
their earnings materially curtalcd. In
such industries as do not permit Of piece.
work, wages would inevitably adjust
themselves to the eight hour plan, ii il
was insisted upon. The employer would
lose nothing by il and the workingman
would gain nothing.
Most men are willing TO work long hours
u they receive adequate compensation
The piece system has Obviated many of
the difficulties complained Of and in the
event OF any general demand for the
eight hour policy it would probably come
INTO more common use. The attitude of
the employers on the subject seems TO be
such That no very serious troubles likely
10 occur between capital and labor in the
solution OF the problem.

Dement'S Discoveries.

About Dement'S discoveries in Utah
land and other frauds, there is a deal OF
Juggling mystery. If Mr.. Dement, found
out SO much in two months residence in
the Territory, it seems marvel that no.
body discovered it before, for Gentle and
Mormon have been inspecting each other
rather closely there for several years.
Mr.. Dement, is dementing the country
with another discovery which he Chris

millions have been raised to spend cor
ruptly in getting the Presidents appoint
ments rejected by the Senate. Honest
now, has not Mr.. Dement, also discovered
that the moon is made of Limburg

DEMENT, AND THE REPORTERS.
The survey Telegraphs
Tint He still Has Truth and
Honor on HIS Side.

Since the wires have brought from
Washington the account of the state
ments made before the Senate committee
by several newspaper reporters, the sem
sation created by General Dement'S first
reported interview has been famed into
genuine flame of excitement. Knots
OF men were grouped on the corners and
all along the business streets discussing
the subject, and it was exceedingly rare
that word OF favorable comment was
heard for the Surveyor-General. The
excitement became so manifest last night
among a number OF Federal officials and
other prominent gentlemen here, that the
Tribune telegrapbed General Dement, to
know whether he would make u
statement in reply to the dispatch
concerning the reporters interview with
the Senate committee. The following
answer was received, which would seem
TO further complicate the vexed question :
WASHINGTON, February 4.-To the Tribune:
In response to your kind request for state
ment, / desire at present only to reiterate
my statement before the Senate Committee.
l am confident that shall soon be able to
show that this is but an infamous plot or
ganized for the sole purpose of defeating my
confirmation to the Senate. 1t is an unequal
fight, but have truth and honor on my side,
and these are sure friends, though they may
be little slow sometimes. Tell my friends
to be patient and to trust me just little
longer. r. s. DEMENT,.
Quite number of officials and others
have been asked, since the above dis
patch was made public, as to their opin-
ions on the subject, and the majority have
said: 81 think Dement, has got his foot
in it, or, dement, is in a devilish bad
box" and these were among the most
