not pleasant to have even single cur
barking and biting at ones heels.
THERE is TOO MUCH PETTY JEALOUSY,
Mr.. Editor, too much narrow-minded-
ness and I fear that instead of being
unable to accommodate candidates for
the position of secretary. the directory
will be perpIexed to find one.
What have the members OF the
Chamber to do with the selection OF
secretary? Surely no candidate Tor
membership in the directory would
enter the lists under an obligation to
appoint or remove a secretary accord,
ing to the wishes OF his constituent!
Why do these members interfere with
and NEEDLE in matters that do not con-
Germ them? Let the members discuss
and canvass the most available and
desirable members for position on the
board and if they act wisely the board
will not make any mistake in its work.
Any one that hits me. Mr.. Editor, be
I Secretary, president, or in whatever
capacity may serve, must expect to be
hit as hard in return. l do not recognize
any obligation resulting from my posi-
ton of submitting to injury or insult,
nor will I submit to any in the future.

THOSE SOUTHERN UTEs.
Their Transfer to Utah-NO DAN
GER Anticipated.

The recent dispatch published in
THE HERALD to the effect that the
Southern Utes had decided to accept
the offer made by the government and
remove from their present location IN
Colorado to a reservation in San Juan
County, has called forth the following
from one interested in the southeastern
part of Utah: "Now that the Indians
have decided to move, what will be-
come of the settlers in San Juan Coun-
ty2 Many of them have made i'm
proyements, with the idea of remain
| ing there. Will these be paid Tor
what expense they have been TOT"
These questions have been here
tofore answered in the col
umns of THE HERALD, but now
that the removal has been decided
upon, it will not be out OF place to again
refer to matter that is OF considerable
importance to settlers in that county.
From all we have been able to gather
on the subject, the government will pay
the settlers for all
ACTUAL IMPROVEMENTS MADE,
but none of these hold title to any of
the lands. There are not over fifty
families in the entire county, and IN
addition to these about fifty cowboys.

Discussing the Crimes Act.

LONDON, Feb. l5.-The debate on the
address in reply to the queens speech was
resumed in the house of commons to-day
by John ELLIS, Liberal member for Not
tinghamshire, who supported Parnell's
amendment to the address. He denies
that the decrease Of crime in Ireland was
owing to the crimes act and asserted that
the returns submitted by the government
to support that claim were ~valueless, in
as much as they failed to give details
which would enable the Identification of
any Of the cases they cited. He con-
demned the action of the Irish magis-
trates, many of WHOM he said, were un-
qualified for the position they occupied,
while others had been guilty of arbitrary
conduct. he mentioned the case of one
magistrate who had declared that he was
acting under government orders and re-
fused to give any other reason for a de-
cision he had rendered.
The administration of the crimes, act,
Ellis said, reeked with petty malignity
and calculated tyranny cheers from the
Irish members. If the government
would assent to the appointment of a Sc
lect committee OF inquiry he promised
that ample evidence of maladministration
Of the act would be forthcoming. The
National League, he declared, was stron-
ger than ever and the spirit of the Irish
people remained unbrokeu, the reason be-
ing that they were convinced that when
the facts were known electors would sweep
away the present mOckery called the gov
eminent Of ireland Irish Cheers.
