THEY MEAN BUSINESS.
The PrOhibitionists Will Nominate
A CITY Ticket Tonight.

n SIty 1ICkSC IO-NISuVs
The Prohibition city convention will
be held at Plummer post hall this even
ing and complete ticket placed in the
field. This unusually early date for a
city convention has twofold signifi-
cance. In the first place, the Prohibs
are opposed, on principle, to anything
that could possibly SAVIOR of fusion, and
are therefore openly against a citizens
ticket, to head off which they propose
to put ticket out. Secondly, they
believe they have begun the most ag-
greSSive campaign and on that theory
believe in beginning early and working
steadily for converts. Their conven-
ton tonight will consist of full dele
CATION from each of the thirteen wards.
The caucuses were held by wards OIL
Saturday night and the cold waterites
were vastly encouraged at the fair at
tendance and the general enthusiasm
manifest at each. AS far as
can be foreshadowed, w. j.
Dean, manager of Deere & Co.,
will be nominated for mayor. Two or
there has been no serious opposition
candidate sprung. For comptroller and
treasurer. there has been little talk of
candidates, but good names will be
forthcoming. Candidates for all of the
city boards will be named, and full set
of aldermanic candidates promulgated.
The Prohib tionists are in high feath-
er just now. In former years they
never had higher ambition than to
make strong fight and fair showing,
but now they go so far as to claim the
possibility of electing their city ticket.
They say they not only expect con-
verts in droves from both parties, but
that in view of the talk of citizens tic
ket, and the general dissatisfaction,
thousands will this time vote their CITY
ticket. They add they will nominate
men who will deserve hearty support.

NEWS FROM sKEENA,
The Indians in an Ugly Mood and
Very Likely to Make Trouble.

VICTORIA, B. c., July 29.-Her Majes-
tvs ship Caroline, Capt. Sir William
Wiseman. arrived at Esquimult from
,Skeena this afternoon with the lat
est news concerning the Indian
troubles. A trader named Har-
kins, who had just arrived at
Skeena from Hazelton, states that
reports of the murder of Hudson Bay
company's agent and others are totally
unfeaaaaaaed. The white are all inside
the barricades built by the Hudson Bay
company. The Indians had assumed
very threatening demeanor, being
somewhat excited over the killing of
Kit-WOn-Colo-Jim by Constable Green.
Harkins thinks serious trouble will en-
sue unless special police are immedi
ately sent to Hazelton. The shooting of
Kt-Won-Colo-Jim by Green is generally
condemned and Green will be
tried for murder. The government
steamer Boscowitz has arrived at
Skeena and has sent force to Hazel
ton to investigate the trouble. If neces-
sary a battery of artillery, now on board
the BOScOWitZ, will be sent up the river.

BY REVELATION.
Jesus Answered What Man Must
Do to Be Saved.

DO W Dc SdNeU.
Rev. W. J. Lhamon preRhed at the
Church of Christ yesterday in the text:
"What must | do to be saved?" This is
the uppermost question with many a
noble man, with many whose bad lives
burden them, with many who are af-
fiicted, and with many who feel that life
is short and eternity is long, that earth
is very small and heaven very great. In
some form or other this has been the
question of the prophets and sages of hu-
manity, and sadly enough they have
found it easier asked than answered. 1t
is as old as Job, iti is as recent as the
youngest of thoughtful men and women :;
it is asked by the statesman in behalf of
his nation, by the missionary in behalf
of the pagan peoples, by the preacher
in behalf of his hearers, and by the
mother in behalf of her child. In its
broadcast or narrowest sense, to this one
man or to the whole world it is a su-
preme question. But who can answer?
To-day there are myriads and growing
myriads os men and women who be-
lieve in the most rational way
and on the best of evidence that
Jesus the Christ is the Savior; that it is
His mission to save; that it is His PROV
ince to answer this question. 1t would

LA CROSSE, Wis, July 29.-The Wi

great scare to-day, but no injury or
loss of life. The boat has twin screw

off, going to the bottom of the river and
taking the rod which runs the screw
along with it. Through the hole in
which the rod worked a stream of wa

sank. All the passengers were got

CIRRENT COMMENT.

1t seems utterly impossible to con-
vince the postal authorities at Wash
ington now, as in the past, that Mime
apolis is city of 100000 people, and re-
quires facilities in keeping with its
population and Importance. The slow
going Eastern line of thought can not
comprehend the marvellous growth of a
Western metropolis, and the fact
that postotfice building large
enough five years ago should
be too small to-day is utterly
incomprehensible. If the authorities
understood and appreciated the situation,
not only would the work on the present
stone pile he hurried along, but the
postoftice would not in the meantime be
cooped up III the present contracted
quarters. As to the proposed change
the corner of Eighth and Nicollet is
altogether too far out of the way.

favor for patronage, cannot afford to
keep in its service unpopular employees.
We also recall that it was the wagon
services in competition with the railway
which brought down the price OF coal
in this market, at time when the rail-
way was taking advantage of the ex-
treme cold and the peoples necessities,
to rob coal consumers.
Now, we don't expect there will be
any trouble of the kind suggested. We
don't believe the railway companies are
eager to engage in a war with the
people, who are in neither the condi-
ton nor the temper at this season of
the year, to quietly submit to the ex-
tortion limited at above. Of course the
community could not now, as formerly,
successfully compete with the railways
in supplying coal, but it could prevent
the robbery from being profitable. We
shall expect q reduction rather than an
increase in the price of coal.

AFTER ALL the electoral vote of West
Virginia will be cast fer Cleveland and
Thurman, and the probability is in
favor of the Democratic candidate for
Governor haEing plurality. The Leg
islature is also Democratic by salts
factory majority. There is no doubt,
however, as to the Legislature of Della
ware being Republican, which will
choose Senator of that faith to sue
coed Salisbury. In view of the fact
that the West Virginia vote will not
help Cleveland, it is almost matter OF
regret that the State was not carried BY
the Republicans. 1t would have abol-
ished the solid south bugaboo, and
might have cured the solid north of
some of its foolish fear.

IT Is a singular agitation which the
New York Observer has undertaken
The reports show that last year there
were in American penitentiaries forty
six prisoners over 80 years of age and
27L over 20 years old Taking this
showing as its text, the Observer urges
that as an act of justice and humanity
Cur criminal codes establish a definite
age on arriving at which the prisoner
should be allowed to go free, regardless
of the nature of his crime or the length
of the sentence pronounced against
him. We imagine the Observer will not
gain popular assent to its proposition,
unless it fixes the age of liberation at,
say about $50 years. The argument
against Furnishing an old man for crime
while young or middle-aged one is
made to suffer the penalty for his
wrong-doipg will not strike the ordi-
nary mind with convincing force.

The OFFICIAL returns from New York
State are not yet all in, but enough
have come to hand to show that Hsr-
rison's plurality will be about II 900.
Governor Hill will have fully 1900
plurality over Warner Miller. Another
thing that is made plain by the returns
is that the knitting of Cleveland by
Democrats was triaing if at all.
Throughout the State Cleveland and
Hill ran about even, but in the city of
New York Hill had 10000 more votes
than Cleveland. This was expected.
The increase represents the votes of
those saloon Republicans who voted
for Hill and Harrison. The Hill aud
Harrison votes are practically the same,
while Cleveland leads Miller about
1000.

COAL.

There is a rumor that the railroa DIS
contemplate raising the price of coal in
this city. We cannot believe there is
anything in the story. Corporations
are without souls, but men have con-
sciences, and these latter must be
stretched to the limit when they charge
sc. 90 for ceal which can be delivered
in Salt Lake at large profit for 81 90
per ton. Every cen: above 81 which is
charged for coal is a robbery, and we
don't balieVe the men who own the
railroads and the coal mines can work
themselves ZIP to such a condition of
mind that they can deliberately plur-
der poor people more than So 90 on a
$500 transaction. If we are mistaken
as to men and what they can find it in
their hearts to do, We certainly
are not in ezxor as to the people
Of Salt Lake and neighboring
towns and what they can do. On
moze than one occasion q bold
game of robbery has been attempted in
this same matter ofcoal prices, and each
time the railway companies were the
losers. The people were equal to the
business in hand. st cost a railroad
companya good many thousands of dol
lars one,w&nter to attempt to force bad
coal at high price or Utah town.
The people wouldn't have the coal at
any price, bat turned ov and supplied
themselves Nth good article, hauling
coal by teams by the sideeef the empty
railway trRins. When the galway peo-
pie discovered that their greed had
overreached itself, they wsre eager
enough to apologize and plead TO make
terms. The men who undertook that
