Mr.. Luke Murrin, well known westenel

wide experience in politics there, being
once mayor of that lively burg, and under
Cleveland's administration clerk of the
first judicial district of Wyoming, posi-
ton which he resigned on August 1st to
take up his residence in Salt Lake. Mr..
Charleton now holds an important county
position in Cheyenne which he will resign
on January l, to take up his residence in
Salt Lake.
The interior of the saloon shows that the
manager and proprietors are in earnest

THE NEW SOUTH.

Boston is pluming herself upon the re-
ception which she gave HENRY w. GRADY,
the brilliant editor of the Atlanta Constf-
tuition. One of the papers goes so far as to
say that Boston has her little faults but
her reception of that particular individual
and the enthusiasm with which she lis
tened to his eloquent defense of the south,
shows that among those faults is not to be
enumerated lack of hospitality to strang
ers 1t also says that his speech was at
bottom an arraignment of President HAIR
RIsoN's arraignment of the south, and as
he (GRADD was addressing an audience
composed largely of supporters of the Pres
ident, the generous applause that greeted
his excellent points was an honor to those
who gave it.
1t is expressed as hope by contempor
airy that when that genial company OF ners
awoke in the morning, their sober second
| thought was that that dreadful race prob
lem which hovers like nightmare over the
entire south is bad enough as it is, and
stands in no need of the additional com
plications sure to, be engendered by out
side interference.
1t is doubtless astonishing that the
people of the north should find
within the confines of the south
men of ability, experience and more
or less wisdom who can come upon northern
ground and make themselves en- rapport all
at once as GRADY did at Boston And yet
there is nothing wonderful in it when you
come to think it all over. Those who are
-
with them as to political questions as men
bent upon the utter demolition of all
things arrayed against them are taking a
rather narrow minded view of the things
of life, andsuch people are not confined to
any particular part of the republic. We
are here to endure and to tolerate.
| GRADY may not be great man in the
ordinary acceptation of that term, but he
is invested with an idea which causes him
to look abroad a. d ahead and to ascertain
whether or not among the things of this
life there is not something above and be-
yond the mere differences of opinion which
bind us to the requirements Of party. He
is and has evidently been willing for those
who differed with him and his people to
cherish that difference, while leaving
to him the same privilege and the
same disposition if he saw fit
to exercise them. He represents the
most progressive element of the south, an
element which is rapidly becoming the ma
iority, and which has all along been dis
posed to take strides to the front
But all of this does not show, and none
of it shows, thathe or any ether part of the
southern community are disposed to sur
render one iot or little of their sacred
rights and reserved privileges. They are
willing that others who have rights shall
enjoy them, reserving the same rights to
themselves. Those who expect them to
look for less or hope to gather more will be
most likely disappointed

fair and commendable light before the
American people. The public will eagerly
await the governors explanation
Whether or not Beavers administration
of the relief fund was characterized by any
thing worse than incompetency there
seems small occasion to doubt the latter.
With an abundance of money in his hands
which a generous public had contributed
want and suffering were permitted to
exist long weeks after they should have
been relieved. In defiance of the popular
demand that the survivors of the disaster
should be made comfortable he withheld
financial relief until the majority Of the
afflicted had no need of it, having provided
for themselves or been helped by friends.
1t must be a very cleverly worded state
ment that will make it appear to the world
that the right man was in the right place
in the person of Governor BEAVER as head
of the Johnstown relief bureau.

THE CHEERFUL GIYERs.

The hest Christmases are those which
come while we are young. To the youth
ful Christmas means weeks of the pleas
ATTEST anticipation, and days OF uuap-
proachable enjoyment. When the young
become middle-aged or old Christmas means
one day of rest and pleasure. The Gus
toms which cluster around the great holt
day of the year are largely for the delecta-
ton of the little ones, the sobered members
of the household looking on, enjoying what
takes place in the reflection of the happi-
ness which came to them on the anniver-
sary many years ago.
None Of US would change the Christmas
in any particular, unless to have it enjoyed
in the genuine childish way until later in
life. The longer the boy or girl surrounds
Christmas with the mysterious, hallowed
atmosphere with which it is enshrouded by
children, the better will it be for them.
We ought not to teach the little ones to
think of the day soberly, and anticipate its
endowment as older people do; and yet, 1t
can be properly taught them that one of
the sweetest features of Christmas is its
unselfshness There is no one more loved
than the cheerful giver, and among the in
estimable blessings is that of giving.
Christmas is good time to implant the les
son. for then it will impress itself upon the
tender mind and be lasting, forming a
mart of the character of the
man or woman There are here
abouts many homes of plenty, in which
wealth and prosperity will enable the little
ones to revel in those things which are
best enjoyed at Christmas time. There are
other homes, few in number it is hoped,
where there will not be plenty on
Christmas day, and in which the little
ones will not revel in Christmas luxuries.
If the boys and girls in the homes where
there will be no want shall be taught that
the largest measure of blessings in this
world comes to the cheerful and generous
giver, the homes of the poor will be made
brighter, and the boys and girls of the rich
viii grow up to be better men and women.
II is little sacrifice that the lad with much
has, to make in making the boy with nothing
happy, and having shared of his abundance
in this way, the pleasure will be so great
that when Christmas shall come again the
pnselfish boy will be cheerful giver.

Congress is now so large as to be unwieldy,
and 1 should hardly think they would in
crease the number. The census will show
that we have little over one hundred
thousand. and if the representation IS put
at 200, 900, can see nothing as say, but a
long watt
All of which is pretty conclusive proof
that FREDDIE is mot such fool as he
looks" to use the popular and expressive
phrase. He knows the meaning of the next
census. He is aware that the enumerators
will reveal the true condition of things re-
garding the number of population and the
exposure being made Idaho's case will be
hopeless one. Congress is not making
states of ocket-boroughs nowadays, the
evil Of the business having been demon
}strated in most deplorable manner in the
case of Nevada. -
1t will be observed that the Delegate esti-
mates the census will show a population OF
"a little over 100000 He must count on
heavy immigration during the five months
before the enumerators make their rounds.
The present population, all told, exclusive
of Indians, who do not count in the show
! ings made on which to base appeals for
statehood, cannot be more than 10000. The
late elections indicated even smaller
number,
The truth is. and he cannot disguise the
tact, the Delegate is disheartened. He sees
| little chance for the success of the scheme
which he and a few conspirators devised
for putting the commonwealth into their
pockets and squeezing it at their leisure.
He may whistle to keep his courage up, but
the dolefulness of his tunes is so apparent
| that he can deceive nobody.

LOST HOPE.

Even Delegate DUBOIS is not confident Of
success in the Idaho statehood scheme.
He writes to friend in the territory, that
'there are numerous complications in the
way, and great deal of hard work will
have to be done" He thinks, however,
there is fighting chance" and says he
will leave no stone unturned to bring about
the fruitieH of his hopes. In conclusion he
says sit is now or never in my opinion. At
any rate, unless we get in this winter, we
will be taken and the apportionment for re-
presentation in Congress raised to about
two hundred thousand, or else the number
Of Congressman will be largely increased.

like the one mentioned and to the men who
establish them, but failure to organizations
and individuals that are here, not to build
up the town, not to develop our resources,
not to erect houses and create permanent
homes, but to ''boom' real estate in order
that they may realize and depart.
THE HERALD's cry is build homes, estab-
lish manufactures and anchor yourself
in our city, but do not be found among
those who are working fer a chance to
''realize'' aud then to fill their ''grip" and
move on. Success 70 all home institutions !
Success to every legitimate enterprise and
lasting failure to every scheme that is det-
rimental to the solid and substantial ad-
vancement Of our city!

ALMOST RUN OVER.
The Stream of Ladies Still Running in the
Direction of the Art Rooms.

Yesterday was probably the liveliest day
ever seen on the streets of Salt Lake city
unless conference be excepted, and not
even conference time could equal anything
like the amount of money that was ex-
pended between the hours of a. m. and 12
p. m. The crowds were simply maddening
as they surged over the crossings. In the
most busy centres there were several en-
counters between teams and pedestrians
which came very near resulting in serious
accidents. One of the liveliest places was
the Ginning just below Little, Roundy g.
Cpms2;s a Constant stfeafa-ef- ladies
coming from the east to the west side to
the art rooms, attracted thither BY the ad-
vertisements they had read in THE HERALD
from day to DAY regarding the display of
bric-a-brac and chinaware laid in for the
holiday exhibition. The stream of fair
ones kept up till well into the night and
would cede none of its rights away to the
indignant teamsters who in vain tried to
break the line; they were on their way to
Little, Roundy & Company's and would
not be gainsaid. Up to the closing time
last night they had made some heavy holes
in the big stock, but the cellars yielded
new treasures ana ladies who visit the art
rooms to morrow will find display appar-
emily untouched The sale in the art
rooms will be kept up steadily to as late an
hour Christmas eve as patronage warrants

THE RANKLI Republican GlObe-Dcmocrdt
has it that according to ex-War Governor
KIRKwooD, of Iowa, it was ALLIsoN's popu-
Iarity with the people of the state which
saved the legislature to the Republicans.
This puts different aspect on the situation
from that which the Democrats seek to i'm
press on it. KIRKwoOD is on the ground,
however, is an experienced observer Of
politics, and is probably correct in his esti-
mate.n The wish is father to the thought.
The country can get along without ALI
SON; at least, we believe it is going to try
to do SO.

ADAy OF FASTING AND PRAYER.

Commencing with this evening at sun
down, and continuing till tomorrow even
ing at the same time, the Latter-day
Saints will hold themselves aloaf from the
ssflesh-pots of Egypt, the indulgences and
nourishments of the world, and engage in
a solemn season OF fasting and prayer.
Dine announcement of the occasion has
been mace in these columns, and those IN
tere,ted will govern themselves accord
ingly.
Those who hold with Col. ROBERT NIGER
soLL. will be disposed to scott and sheer
at this line of conduct on the part OF the
Saints. He inl his following regard
nrayer as a useless performance, but 1t
should also be remembered that they
hold that there is no such power
as the one to whom prayers are addressed.
With the majority of Utah's people, and we
NAV say the majority everywhere in this
land of civilizst on, it is different; they are
animated by a different purpose and pos
.essel of different hopes from those who
lo,l, upou death as a ''dreamless sleep, a
night without star" and so believing it is
their right aud their duty to resort to invo-
cations to the throne of grace whether or
not they may be sorely beset with trials
and grievances.
All business places conducted by mem
hers of the Mormon church are expected
to be closed all day tomorrow, not only in
order that employees may have an opportu-
nity to participate in the sacred ceremonies
which will take place, but also that all may
ioin in the outward manifestations of ap
proval of the course which it has been de,
cided by the leaders of the church to adopt
as means of gaining assistance through
the troubles and trials which now hover
around as thickly and darkly as at any time
during the history of the church.

THE INDICTMENTS against certain officials
and well known citizens found by the late
grand jury have been made public, and as
one reads the charges as preferred and set
out in detail, he is surprised to think there
are fifteen men in the community who
could find it in their hearts to make such,
presentment. 1t seems to US that the pub
hcation of the indictments relieves the
accused of all suspicion of wrong -doing to
which this had given rise.
