Wm. Dickson aid R. Ross, two miners from New Mexico, now in the city, were on the train robbed near Stein's Pass last week. They considef it disgrace that the trainmen, seven in number, should have allowed two men to hold them up, as they could easily have been stood off. Several passengers volunteered to assist the conductor, but backbone seemed to be lacking. One of the robbers was plain ly seen, and neither wore masks as re- ported. Mir. Dickson describes one of the robbers as follows: A man of med ium size, about s years old, light com. plexion, light moustache, with stepping shoulders.

POwERS breaches

Last Tuesday evening Mr.. o. W.
Powers delivered political address in
Burlington. Iowa, to large audience.
AS Mr.. Powers furnished verbatim
copy to one of the local papers, we can
see that the gentleman said so much
that 1t took IA inches of BREWER typs to
print his remarks, 1t is only the truth
to state that it was a rafting good
Democratic speech, giving full credit to
Grover Cleveland and his administra-
ton, and correctly portraying the r.
publican party and its psdigreed
standard bearer. But Mr.. Powers
said one thing which will be very apt to
hurt the feelings of his only admirers
and friends out this way quite as much
as it pleased his Democratic audience
at Burlington. 1t so happens that
about the only people here who have
done any banking on Powers are rabid
Republicans, and they have slobbered
over him in disgusting sort of way.
They will, therefore, feel quite as much
like kicking themselves as him, when
they read the following, which is copied
literally from his speech, under his own
sub-head of "Slavery's Sister," He
here states positively things which his
Republican associates are all the time
emphatically denying. Will they have
the courage 10 deny it now that
Powers has openly asserted it abroad?
Here is what Powers talked to the Burl-
ington people.
The manner in which the Democra y has
treated the MORMON problem furnishes al
additional reason why Cleveland should be
reelected. For twenty five years. the r.
publicRns ruled this country and with each
succeeding campaign its platforms de-
nounced MormOnism as the twin relic of
barbarism," But tor all that polygamy
fourished ami the evil took deeper and

defiant Utah, one of the fairest portions
of the land-a veritable gem of the noun

The Democratic party, in the midst of all
this criminal neglect, was declared by the
Republicans to be the especial patron of
the Mormon kingdom. The years had been

A PECULIARLY.

1t is fact verified by the records
that there has ever been greater
activity in real estate transactions in
this city during the bad weather
seasons than at other times. In the
late spring when the city is most
beautiful to look upon very little is
ever done in the way of real estate
sales. People do not buy. During the
summer the real estate offices, as rule
would save money by pulling down the
blinds and putting up the shutters,
so little being done that it scarcely pays
the expense of sweeping out. The most
glorious climate we have is that of the
early autumn, when the weather is
perfection itself, lacking in nothing
which would make it desirable; and yet.
when one would think that strangers
would be charmed with the climate and
want to live where they could always
enjoy it, no one buys real estate. The
real estate dealers will verify this,
which has been the rule. But
remarkable as it may seem, with
the setting IN Of foul weather
thero comes an inquiry for city lots
and the price of land at once advances.
Last fall and winter when the roads
were SO deep in mud that pedestrians
would almost mire, strangers were al
most wild in their desire to get hold of
land. Way along in the spring-and i:
was an unusually late spring tourists
would get off the cars in snow storm.
and through mud, wind aud slees, go
at once to real-estate Office with cash
enough 20 buy any lots which could be
had at reasonable prices. Whe the
weather became settled and Salt Lake
had really charming cliuats to otfe-
with her land. the stranger admitted
he did not care to buy, and home deal
ers were content to rest, even permit.
ting bargains to pass unheeded.
Real estate dealers are confidently
counting on the continuation of the
rule, and are expecting return of
brisk business when the coming of bad
weather, deep mud, chilling winds
and disagreable storms, will fetch
buyers and stimulate prices. Two
months more and the tide which has
been running against Salt Lake since
last spring will once more set in this
direction and run with us at least until
the return of the delightful weather
next spring.

DO YOUR DUTY!

The next issue of THE HERALD will
tell of the result of the election In this
county. If the Peoples Party members
are true to themselves and interested
in the welfare of the Territory the
announcement on Tuesday morning
will be the election of all nominees on
the Peoples ticket. Necessarily the
vote will be somewhat close. The
parties are more nearly equally divided
than ever before, and so far as the
Liberals are concerned they are putting
forth the greatest effort of their lives to
bring out their full strength. There is,
however, enough difference to give the
People an overwhelming victory. if they
choose to take it. If they will go to
the polls and vote for the ticket which
has been regularly nominated, the ma
jority will Ee large enough to discourage
the enemy.F But it must be understood
that there can be no shrinking of duty,
no trusting to others as ia the past.
The Peoples Party man who fails to
vote on Monday will be guilty almost
of a crime, for it would be very nearly
equivalent to a crime, if through the
y-at-homes the administration of
the county should be lost to the bona
fde residents. We do not apprehend
any such catastrophe; but the threat is
s1ch that all should be spurred to the
faithful performance of their duty.
