HINTS ON SHOEING.

Do not let horses shoes remain over
three to six weeks, dependent on the
amount of use and the toughness and growth
of the hoofs. Each time after taking off
the shoes, if the road permits let him go
barefooted as long as no injury followed,
as this expands the hoofs and keeps them
in more perfect condition. Some horses
can be used barefoot, off pavements, for
months, or the whole year round, and work
better than if shod. Never allow the frog
of the foot to be cut or trimmed, unless
somewhat ragged and then only very lit
tie, as it acts as a cushion to the foot and
lessons or even prevents bruising when
striking a stone or other hard substance.
See that the hoof is not pared beyond ap-
solute necessity, and that the shoe is prop
erty fitted to it, and not the hoof to the
shoe. Do not allow the bottom of the hoof
to be burnt or even scorched with a hot
shoe, in order to make it set evenly, but
pare it properly to do so. Always use the
hghtest shoes compatible with the condi-
ton of the roads and the work required of
the horse.

NoTHING CAN check the advance of the
railroads, and we are not at all sure thai
anything wants to. 1t being pretty vel
understood fact that there are yet many
sections of the country which are populous
thrifty and growing, whose mountains have
never yet echoed the shrill neigh of the iron
monster, we must go on in this direction
and not pause until the whole land is Gov,
cred. According to the Rdiltray Age, we
would seem to be making good progress in
that direction. Its summary of railroad
construction for the first nine months OF
this year shows that 3,3f2 miles OF track
were laid in thirty nine States OF the total

the list with 23S miles; Washington is sec
ond with PA miles; Texas is third with 179
Virginia fourth with l176 :. Tennessee fifth

sissippi eighth with al miles.

above set out whether he is Immediately
affected or not.
The disposition referred to may properly
be called the offspring of intolerance and
bigotry. We cannot as general thing ell
dure that people should live, move and
have a being, and at the same time enter
tain different religious views from our own.
Within limited sphere, this feeling gives
rise to social ostracism and annoyances Of
all kinds; within a larger one to legislative
enactments having tendency to curtail
especial and peculiar religious rites. 1t
seems that the majority OF our race are
never so happy as when causing others,
either by moral suasion or otherwise, to
think and act like themselves. Isit not so!
The HERALD would here take occasion to
ask what business it is of the editor re-
ferred to as to the length, breadth or thick
ness of the Methodist Episcopal sermon or
the Protestant Episcopal prayer. If he is
communicate in either church, the road
to reform is not through tho means he has
adopted, but through appeals to the church
itself. If he is not communicate much
more likely copclusion-as before suggest
edit is not his especial business how
those who are members deport themselves
in their various gathering places so long
as they violate no law. We undoubtedly
have the right to worship COP after our
inclination and in accordance with the
promptings of our own souls, and
no one has any right to pre-
vent US from doing so whether
he be an editor or the more systematic and
better defined form of Christian. This is
not saying that editors have no judgment
in such matters, because many of them
have; it is simply stating that church PEG
pie have their rights and privileges which
those who do not see eye to eye with them
have no right to change, alter or abridge.
The sooner this is understood and recog
nized everywhere, the sooner will we
emerge from that, condition of conflicts,
hostilities and general disturbance which
have not only been the means of destroy
ing the lives of many people Of the nation,
but have too often endangered the life of
the nation itself.

GOING AFTER THE CHURCH.

An eastern paper, noting the fact that
the Episcopalian prayer book is to be re
formed, concludes that it should be so, and
thinks that little shortening of the same
would add greatly to to its attractiveness.
1t thinks that while brevity is the soul of
wit, certain liturgical compilers seem to
assume that the soul of the prayer book is
its prolixity sit has always been hard to
tell it ssvs, (which was the most trying
upon Christianity, the Protestant Episco-
pals or the Methodist Episcopals, the
one being too long in their prayers, the
other too long in their sermons"
While it is a fact that few things in life
make person so weary in his mind as long,
pointless sermons or dull, drawn out
PRAYERS, it is also the fact that complaints
regarding them come principally from those
who seldom or never permit either to get a
chance to annoy them. AS race, we are
very much disposed to finding fault on be-
half of other people while presenting the
appearance of being ourselves annoyed
Sometimes this is right, but not as a rule.
For instance, we have no especial justif-
cation for interfering with the lawful hap
piness of others, and if such happiness be
found in prolix prayers or dreamy dis
courses, undoubtedly there should be no
interference, especially from those who
never frequent places of worship and have
as little care for the rites and rituals of
a church as flock of sheep have for the
Koran. But their opposition to such
things is suggestive Of an underlying dis
position of the genus homo which prompts

GENERAL CONNOR.

1t has been said that General CoNNoR, at
the close of the war was offered colonelcy
in the regular army. He refused, thinking
the opportunities of civil life preferable.
Every friend of the old Indian-ighter must
regret his choice. Instead of occupying an
enviabe position on the retired list of the
army in his old age, he has become-well,
we all know what General CoNNOR is and
has been for years. Old age is creeping on
him fast With some of the instincts of a
soldier with good record as an Indian
fighter with bigoted hatred of every
thing Mormon that bred discord and nearly
provoked trouble a dozen times where,
had he not unwisely persisted in his
narrow course, harmony and quiet
would have prevailed, he has, for
many years, been the especial pet of the
/ Tribune 1t has lauded him to the skies as
the man who boldly" and we may add
gratuitously and outrageously, bearded"

approaching the anniversary of the oca-
ton of Fort Douglas.
| The occasion is distinctively General

/ Liberal procession in honor of the event
/ OF course the Tribune has interviewed him
and induced him to repeat with variations
the old chestnut about his triumphal en-
trance to this city in 1862. A part of the
/ interview reads as follows
While at Camp Floyd, two days before we
arrived here, l received a dispatch from this
city, stating that the MormonS were assembling
and wouldn't allow me to cross the Jordan
''What reply did you make to that asked the
reporter.
/ THAT l would cross the Jordan if hell yawned
beyond" replied the general grimly.
Did you meet with any resistance"
Not bit; BRIGHAM left for Cache Valley
Z the night before arrived. crossed the Jordan
/ and marched my men up to Governor HARD
J ING'S place, where We halted for an hour and a
half
What was that for:''
oh l was waiting for some one to tread on
my coat tail. that's all The MormonS kept in
doors however, and didn't attempt to eat as up
waiting for some one to tread on my coat
talr' There was not the slightest DISPOSE
ton to tread on BOMBAsTEs' coat tail. If
the general had said the word, if he had
come in as sensible man should have done,
he would have been met with every indica-
tion of friendliness.
It was not the people of Utah who de-
clared war on General CONNER; it was the
latter who declared merciless and unend
ing hostility to them, and this, under the
suggestions Of bigotry and prejudice, with
out reason. There is one thing dead sure,
that if there had been any Mormon disposi-
ton to tread on his coat tail, his 500 men
and his six cannon would scarcely have pre-
vented it.
General FURIoso did not brighten the Nor
mons out of the intention of walking on his
coat tail; they never entertained it, at least
previous to his coming; his arrogant be-
havior thereafter may have provoked a ma
tural desire to see him thrashed into a rea-
sonable frame of mind.
General CoNNoR is little else than brag-
CART and old age strengthens his natural
flavor.

A MILITARY BLUNDER.

Two officers Of the United States infant
ry, now stationed at Fort Douglas, are an
nounced by Grand High Cockalorum Con
NOR, of the Liberal forces as aides-de-
camp. We suppose this announcement
was made without the knowledge or con-
not the case we regret very much that any
of the officers of the garrison should iden-
tify themselves with loca! politics in un-
doubted violation of the precedents of years.
While army officers are, of course, as deep
ly concerned in the welfare of the country
as other citizens. We believe we are right
in saying that the almost universal SEN
timent and practice among them is to avoid
politics. Such, at least, has been the his
tory of our local politics. All candid men
must agree that it is scarcely a
fair or proper thing for the United States
forces here TO throw the weight of their
influence on either side. The garrison are
plainly neutrals; not only from the neces-
sites eff their employment but also form
the further and conclusive fact that they
are in no sense of the word residents of
the territory with domicile or the right
TO vote herein. Their mixing up in our
affairs not only carries with it the assump-
ton, which they have no right to give
birth to- that the United States are
partisan, but is, as well, the gratuitous in
reference of non residents in affairs not
their own.

A DISPATCH announces that HIPPoLYTE
has been unanimously chosen President of
the dark republic of Hayti. 1t looked for
while as though there would be nobody
for himself or anyone else to preside over,
at the rate they were going on over there.
The question now arises as to when some
pretender for Presidential honors will
start up against him, even as he started up
against General LEGITIME, Just as the lat
ter was getting the executive chair nicely
warmed through contact with his person.
Now that they are so greatly reduced
would seem to be good time for Senator
WADE HAMPToN's idea to be given prac-
tical test-that is, for the negroes Of this
country who cannot submit to white dom
ination to seek the northern limit of the
Caribbean sea. There are great many
people needed in Hayti to replenish the
population made thin through HIPPoLYTE's
and LEGITIME's cat-and-dog procedure, and
we could spare a great many of them

APRES LIE BATAILLE.

while the light holds out to burn, the
vilest Republican may return" They had
pretty fierce contest up in Montana week
before last, and the newspapers wed with
the stump orators, and these latter with
old SATAN himself, in the matter OF
calling hard and hurtful names
The greater part of this came, OF
course, from the organization that is now
trying to steal the legislature of the new
state and it is gratifying to hear that they
or any considerable fraction of the party,
have commenced to realize that Democrats
are human belngs-even more, that they
are as IA class pretty good fellows, that
when they drink with Republicans it is
generally the formers treat, and that
above all, they pioneered and colonized
Montana and put the state in the way of
being what it is.
In view of the foregoing, these lines from
the Deer Lodge NcC NorthweSt-a very
able and well conducted sheet, by the bye
are quite refreshing:
Now that election is over andthc result has been
thoroughly cuSSed ana discussed. let US eschew
affairs OF state for while and turn our atten-
ton to matters of equally great importance,
even if Of less absorbing interest-the develop
ment OF our mines, the upbuilding Of our towns
and cities, the promotion Of our railroad
facilities, the advancement Of our live
stock and agricultural interests and u
thousand other matters that combine to
make IA rich state and a prosperous people.
There is too much politics in this country.
Everybody says this on the heels of an election,
which is proof that it Is true. And, while suffer-
ing the sting of partial defeat and regrettng that
we cannot have another immediate round with
our friends the enemy, We are really glad that
there is not to be another general election for
three years. 1t is time to rest. Let Us have
peace"
That has the right ring to it, sure enough.
The first thought that suggests itself to us
on reading it is-why in the world didn't
the writer think of it before!
