TsR Mu.PonD POST OFFICE.

We are told tina. the only result to
the mail carriers, THE contractors lost
nothing) on account Of their failure to
give proper service last winter between
Phoebe and Milford was . deduction from
the amount due the carrier at the Phoebe
end Of the route. The carrier at this
end claims that the greatest fault was ct
the other end, and we believe IL, because
our carrier went clear through to Milford
on at least one occasion without meeting
the Milford carrier. Postmaster Shier,
however. did his duty according to law,
and - be had sworn to do, in reporting
the circumstances here just - they were.
II sppean that the Milford Postmaster
must have failed to properly report.
The RECORD would mildly suggest that .
mail carrying contract 10 usually, ex.
cspt in Utah. supposed to be strictly
carried out. 1t il considered Of more
consequence than the carrying Of car.

Harrison or Cleveland.

Harrison or Cleveland.
That Is the question. The waving Of
the rag with which poor old Thurman
wipes his nose is silly. Not much Of il
y seen here, thanks to the good sense
and taste OF some Of our local Democrats.
There is now but one sentiment east and
west as to the necessity Of excluding the
Chinese. The constant, uncandid, and
misleading statements Of the Democratic
press on this subject are not needed by
intelligent men. As to the tariff prob
lem. the amount Of talk upon which is
only equalei by the wonderful miscon.
captions Of the takers and writers, the
principal effects OF It's solution must coms
to US indirectly. as results Of the general
prosperity or disaster to the nation,
rather than directly. The question for
Nevada to answer 10 whether Harrison
or Cleveland is most favorable to the sil.
yer interest. all other questions ara in.
significant when compared with this.
We will be more than foolish IL we allow
inferior considerations to govern 10.

AN INCIDENT or THE WAR.


Warlike incidents can sometimes
be applied to civic affairs. Some Of
our readers may remember the he
roic achievements Of the army Of the
Cumberland toward the close
of the summer campaign in
1868. Strategic operations in the
valley of the Tennessee were skill
fully conducted by Grant and
Thomas on the Union side and by
Bragg on the side Of the rebels, the
successes Of the first named chiefs
driving their adversary from his
best positions, until the lines were
formed in front Of Chattanooga, and
the determined charge Of the boys
In blue drove the enemy in confus-
ion from his strong works. The adj
vance and assault were witnessed by
Grant ana several of his corps COM
manders with intense satisfaction.
But the capture Of the forts and the
flight or surrender Of the garrison
did not finish the fighting. There
was halt Of a few minutes, to get
breath, the lines were again formed,
and then with a sudden impulse
they all started up the ridge. 1t
seemed as if the work done was not
enough for the brave men engaged,
and that they had determined, while
their hands were in, to finish the
battle of Chickamauga.
Grant inquired of Thomas who sat
by his side, "Thomas, who ordered
those men up the ridge?" The lat
ter replied, in his usually quite way,
~ don't know, l did not" He then
addressed Gordon Granger, "Did
you order them up, Granger" "No,"
said that general, "they started up
without orders. When those fell
lows get started, all sheol can't stop
them.n
1t was soldiers battle. The men
who carried the muskets had be-
come their own generals, and moved
forward of their own accord. Off
GERS, catching their spirit, had first
followed and then led, and before
this advance Of heroes the enemy
again fled.
We produce this stirring incident
us an example for Monday. The
election will bc Il voters battle. The
profcssed organ of republicanism in
this city has done its best bipartisan
rancor and spite and unstinted
abuse, to disseminate i'll feeling and
keep voters away from thepolls, and
the republican county committee
has been strangely apathetic. But
the course of good government eX-
lists, of progress in moral reform, Of
increased happiness for the greatest
number, and these are all bound up
in the bundle of life with the repub-
lican party. With honest, capable,
progressive men I'm Office, reform can
be achieved; and now the opportun-
ity is presented to republicans to
elect n set of men who are in SYM
pathy with their aims and who will
advance their objects Let the rank
and file advance ON the polls of their
own volition, and place men in
charge of their county affairs who
will reflect credit on theirjudgment.
We want TO see big republican
vote pullcd. Providence is ON the
side OF the heaviest ba;talious ,of vo-
tcrsl.

Wholesale Poisoning.

One OF the most horrible poisoning cases
that Philadelphia has ever known has
been discovered, and another murderess
lodged in jail. John Whiting aged thirty
eight years, his alleged wife, aged forty.
his alleged daughter Bertha, aged nine
years and his son Willie aged two years.
lived in the rear end al 1927 Cadwalladep
street. John Whiting died en- March 20,
Bertha ON April 25 and Willie an May 26.
The doctors in attendance gave ccrtific;l tes
pf death respectively ior inflammation Of
tho bowels, gastric fever and congestion of
the bowels" There was an insurance on
the lives a each, ranging from 5000 down
to $50. The coroner accidentally hear.
ing ci the case, and having his suspicious
aroused, had the bodies exhumed and a
chemical analysis made OF the intestines,
and found arsenic in all. The woman was
sent for by the coroner and made u full
confession. She procured "Rough on
Rats" She gave the children
the poison and then summoned a ply
sician, but did not administer the med
icine prescribed. She said she could not
go out washing with baby and resolved
to get rid Of lille; that she was fraid
Bertha would grow up bad woman and
she had better die, and concluded that il
she poisoned them all at once she would
be found out. She came to Phiadelphia
in 1872, and has lived in a house of assig.
nation both there and in Chicago. She is
frivolous in manner, and was only brought
to the consciousness OF her position when
confronted With the evidence Of her crime.
When she finished her confession sha said
her conscience was clear and that sha
would me6t her dead children in heaven.
