SUNDAY

A good, pious man writes the Salt Lake
Tribune, deploring the existence Of Sun
day newspapers. and declaring the belief
that the Sunday newspaper sis a grow
ing influence In the abuse Of the Sabbath
day." The Tribune says: "0ur friend
may not know the fact, but there Is q
great deal Of bigotry in all that. Some
mon like to have q newspaper to read on
Sunday. A great many poor men, who
are worked hard all the week, look for
ward to Sunday as a day Of rest and on
which TO read the newspaper, as to some-
thing to hope for and to rejoice in. The
average Sunday newspaper has more good
things in II than the average sermon, for
1t is the work of many men. And II there
are things in il which are not good, they
but symbolic the hearts Of men. All
hearts have their vagrant streaks and 3
perfectly proper newspaper could not
make q living anywhere. Newspapers
have come to stay. They are q necessity
to the world. They viii be published,
too, on all the Sabbath days Of the flu
ture. Would il not be better, then, to
try to make them better. rather than 10
try the impossible task Of suppressing
themi They viii grow good as fast as
the people do. faster indeed, for they are
perpetually leading the people. Our
friend, we fear, lie troubled with indiges-
tion. We fear, too, that he has never
yet comprehended the Bible maxim that
the Sabbath was made for man and not
man for the Sabbath. He says the Sab
bath should be a day OF perfect rest.
Well, four-ffths Of the business men Of
the world cannot rest without q daily
paper. The thing TO do, then, Is to make
of the Sunday paper a something as sac
red as the pulpit and more elastic. This
will be accomplished just as soon as the
world Is good enough to want IL. Our
friend ia too conscientious, and his Ideas
of what Is Gods will are exaggerated"

/. FALsEHOOD CONTRADICTED.

The Winnemucca Silver State says il
has been the generally expressed hope Of
the masses of the people that the present
campaign would be an educational one,
conducted on rational principles, and that
public speakers and the press would not
appeal to prejudice or resort to falsehood
TO make points for persons or party. This
hope has been shattered, and though the
scandalous personalities Of the campaign
Of 1854 have been eliminated from the
present one, Misrepresentation are dealt
In as usual.
Only two public speakers have ad.
dressed the citizens of Winnemucca OF
political topics this Fall. One Of these,
Hon. II. F. Bartine, who had held a po-
sition In the United States Mint at Car
son for years. and was supposed TO know
what he was talking about, declared from
the stand that under the present Admin
istration the wages of watchmen at that
mint had been reduced one dollar per
day. This statement Mr.. Bartine IL re.
ported having made wherever he spoke
throughout the State, except at Carson,
for the purpose, il is supposed, Of creating
a prejudice in the minds Of wage.earners
against the President. Major Garrard,
superintendent Of the Carson Mint, de-
MES the assertion Of Mr.. Bartine over his
own signature, and says nc changes have
been made in the wages Of w%atchmen at
the Mint during his SUPPLEMENTARY, and
that they have been and are paid four
dollars per day. The fact that Mr.. Bar
tine did not make the assertion at Carson,
where it ia well known that watchmen
are receiving four dollars per day now as
heretofore. implies that he knowingly
misstated the matter throughout the
State. Misstatements on the silver, tar.
if and Chinese questions are bad enough.
when made for the purpose Of deceiving
voters, but to falsely charge, as Mr.. Bar.
tine did here, that in the town where he
resides the watchmen employed in the
United States Mint had their wages re-
duced a dollar day by the President,
seems ~inexcusable. even In . political
campaign. but if Mr.. Bartine or his friends
have any excuse to offer for the fslsehood
a reasonable amount Of space in the Sill.
yer State for the SENTINEL is at their
service for that purpose.

A Panorama Of brand scenery
ruu. Song and Dance.

Euus 5g8s
Good audiences gathered at the
Eureka Opera House on Thursday and
last evening to see the I" Mirror OF Ire
land" The panoramic scenery Of Ire
land is exceedingly good and called
forth the admiration Of all that were
present. The histrionic ruins OF
ancient castles, the lakes Of Killarney,
Castle Ross, the Giants Causeway,
etc, the magnificent streets and noble
buildings Of Dublin, Queenstown, the
bay and various other scenes are
brought out in such a vivid manner
that none, no matter whether natives oil
the "ould sod" or OF this or any other
country, but must be exceedingly in
terested. The portrayal Of genuine
Irish character, with the real Irish
brogue, by "Nora" and Barney" in
| their courtship is, to say the least,
highly amusing and true to actual life.
One cannot tire Of the scenery
| and the songs and acts, which
| would draw crowded houses in a
largely populated town. There will be
a change in the program tonight az
regards the acts and songs. Those who
have not witnessed the Mirror o.
Ireland " il will pay to take 1t in.

To the Editor or the JOURNAL AND COURIER:
 The writer of this article was waiting last Sunday evening at Albany for 8 train for New Haven. There were quite number waiting. Among them was gentleman from Boston, and in course of conversation he asked me how Connecticut was going for president this fall. My reply was, don't know, as it was one of the doubtful States. He says: I don't see how any laboring man can vote for free trade. He further says: Four years ago voted for Cleveland, but I am ashamed of it. He also said that he had always voted the Democratic ticket (and he is q man fifty years old). but he should never vote it again as long as he lives. And so you will hear of them, MT. Editor, all over the country looking for protection, and they know they can only get it from the Republican party. I don't see why, MT. Editor, the Republican party cannot whip back into the traces again, and when once back there never over and out of them again, for there is no need of it. We can hold the reins as long as the present two parties ex- tst. A REPUBLICAN.
