Salt LAKE Cry, Sept. II, 1888.
To the Editor of the HERALD:
Allow me to say to you that I believe
that the speech of Mr.. Merritt at the
Democratic meeting last night will
compete with any that has been uttered
during the campaign. He is one of
those who had the manhood to get up
and expose the Republican robberies
during the last twenty-five years. He
showed thai the Democrats have re-
Gently recovered 80 1000 acres of the
public domain which had been stolen
from the people by Republican legisla-
ton, and which fact has been kept a
profound secret by all the Republican
papers in the land. Their fraudulent
papers wouI0nt dare come cut to the
world with these facts, and we defy any
Republican to meet Mr.. Merritt on the
stand in argument. Their crimes are
broad as the Constitution of the United
States, and their sins have gone up
before the throne, where they perplex
the God Of nature, and they now ask
the votes of those whom they have OPP
pressed. l commend Mr.. Merritt as
worthy of the confidence of all Jeffer-
sonian Democrats.
The freeing of 1000 900 and enslaving
of 40 100000 black and white, gives no
honor to the Republican party.

THE TENTH WARD SQUARE.
Some Suggestions to be Con-
sidered.
To the E iitor of THE HERALL

To the iitor of THE HERALL
Notwithstanding the respectful pro-
tests and earnest prayers of the pei
TONERS of East Salt Lake, 1 under
stand the I'D. A. M" Association man
ayers propose building q high close
board fence around the Tenth Ward
Square. The Fair will hold, say, five
days out of the 365 in the year. Thus,
building during the short period of five
days, the masses will be prevented
from even peering at the beautiful
structure and its surroundings in all
time to come. What an eye sore, and
what shame! That close high board
fence alone will cut down the value of
all real estate bordering on the square
at least % per cent. In my opinion,
there should be nice iron fence Ia high
one, If our masters please built around
that square. One that could not be
climbed over any easier than the one
they now propose to build of boards
against the anxious and reasonable
protests of all the neighboring citizens
who would, no doubt. willingly furnish
police service during the brief Fair
term to keep out all intruders.
L beg the management to heed the
respectful protests OF the patient people
against close high board fence which
will shut out from public view, the
spl ,ndid edifice now approaching COM
pletion and which is being butt with
tax funds paid by the masses.
Let me also suggest that a clock
tower be added to the design, and an A
No. l clock be put in it, for the con
venience of those who are too far from
the town clock to derive any benefit
from it. This would cost but little
more while the convenience would be
very great indeed. No doubt the bust
ness men of the city will willingly pay
for the clock, if the society feels too
POOR 10 make the purchase, and be-
lieve, also. that the people of Southeast
Salt Lake will subscribe literally to-
wards the construction of an iron fence
as against the high board fence, which
would soon be plastered all oyer with
hideous advertise ments.
Will the management please listen to
the foregoing suggestions made by one
OF the deeply interested PHoxE.

A Great Victory
q Terrible Case Of ScYofula
Cured by
Hoods . SarsapariIia

In the winter of 1879 was attacked with
Scrofula in one of the most aggravating forms.
At one time had no less than thirteen large
assesses over and aroundmy neck and throat,
continually exuding an offensive mass Of
bloody matter disgusting to behold, and
almost intolerable to endure 1t is impossible
to fully describe my sufferings, as the case
was complicated with Chronic Catarrh. After
three years of misery, having been treated by
three physicians, was worse than ever.
Finally, on the recommendation of W. j.
Huntley, druggist, of LockpOrt, was induced
to try Hoods Sarsaparilla. And now, after
having taken twelve bottles, within the last
twelve months, the serofulous eruptions have
entirely ceased, and the assesses have all
disappeared, except the unsightly sears, which
are daily becoming smaller by degrees, and

my case, Hoods Sarsaparilla has proved an

my gratitude I send these facts unsolicited.

Portland Business College.

One Of the most beneficial educational in
situations in our community is the Portland
Business College, where young men are
thoroughly educated in the rules and prac-
tees of business and where the practical
routine Of the bank, store and counting
room are daily exemplifed. Yesterday af
ternoon the pupils and others had the privil-
ege of listening to very instructive lecture
by Hon. William Henry Clifford on the law
Of contracts-the different kinds and the
various classes of obligations incurred under
each class This is kind OF lecture in the
best way calculated to interest and instruct.
Mr. Clifford in a very clear and distinct man
ner divided contracts into their various
classes. He then took up each division and
impressed their peculiarities, the rights and
duties under them, by plain business illus
trations in such way as to make a clear
and lasting impression ON the mind. None
could listen to the lecture without carrying
away at least some rules that would operate
to guide in the transaction of business. The
lecture was practical, plain and in the high
est degree instructive. The speakers power
of throwing off the technical and more OBJ
struse parts Of the law and simplifying the
great leading rules by clear applications to
everyday business was what rendered the
lecture especially interesting and beneficial.

BAKING POWDERS.
The Latest official Tests as to their
Relative Purity.

The present interest in the matter Of food
authorizations and the agitation of the ques-
ton of national and local legislation for the
purpose of preventing them, have caused
more than ordinary attention to be given
to the report of the Ohio State
Food Commission, which reveals
the extent and character of the adulter-
alton found in many of the baking powders
of the market. The presence OF so large a
number of powders made from alum, as was
found by the commission, has not been sus-
pected, nor was 1t supposed that some OF the
cream of tarser and phosphate brands,
whose manufacturers have held them up to
the public as pure and wholesome, had be-
come so deteriorated by the use of impure
ingredients in compromising them.
The Ohio commission examined thirty diff
ferent kinds for their strength and impuri-
ties, and declared that powder the best-as it
was of course the purest-which, being of eff
fective strength. contained residuum in small
lest quantity. In these baking powers sold
in this State the following percentages OF
residnm uor inert matter was found:

lnm uor inert matter was found:

The nature of the residuum bears directly
upon the question of health. That in Royal
is declared by the Commission to be perfect
ly harmless. In the case of the alum pow
ders it is considered hurtful, yet the amount
found in three of the cream Of tartar pow
ders-the Cleveland, DR.. Prices and Ster-
ling-averaged about the same as that in the
Crystal, an alum powder. In the phosphate
powders the inert matter is exceedingly
large, being more than third Of their entire
weight.
The Importance Of the information con-
veyed by these figures can be best under
stood by simple comparison. Take for in
stance the two first named powders-the
Royal and Clevelands. The inert matter or
residuum found in Cleveland's is seen to be
about 8 in more than in the other. which is
difference of 40 per cent, the Royal being
purer than Cleveland's by corresponding
figure. The inert matter in Horsford's is
over five times, or more than 400 per cent
greater than in the Royal. The relative pur-
ity of all the brands can be computed in like
manner.

About $500 worth Of rope and rigging was
destroyed. besides the provisions, and the
vessels hold was damaged to the value of
