THE WIRES.

An anonymous writer, probably some
boomer and evidently a man given to fault
finding, taking his inspiration from the
cutting down Of the telephone telegraph
and electric light poles in New York CITY,
wants our city council to order the removal
of the overhead wires from our streets.
We suggest to our correspondent that there
Is such thing as common sense in this
world. 1t is common sense that the wires
in New York city be buried. The streets
are narrow, and all the space is required for
the traffic: the wires are in the way of the
fremcn, the poles are unsightly. and
the whole thing is a nuisance Accidents
are constantly occurring on account
of the posts and wires, and since the in
auguratiOn of the system of electric light
ing, many people and horses have been
killed by coming in contact with the
charged wires. In Salt Lake it would be
very nearly ridiculous to demand the burial
of the wires. We have one wire to perhaps
a hundred in New York; our streets will
average in width very nearly twice that of
the streets of New York, and it is possible
that traffic here is hundredth part of that
on the streets of the city named. The wires
in Salt Lake are little, if any hindrance.
and if slightly poles are erected, the
appearance is not Objectionable Fur
thermOre, we are of the opinion
that an order to put the wires
would be followed by the
withdrawal of the telephone, telegraph and
electric light companies from the city, as
the business of the place would not Justify
the expense involved by the change. The
time may come when Salt Lake will find it
or eXpedient to require the re
moval Of the overhead wires, but that time
will not arrive in this generation, even if
the city shall DOOM beyond the expecta-
ton of the most enthusiastic boomer of to-
day. With 1872 feet of street width. and so
much ground that high buildings will never
be the rule, there will be plenty of room
for poles and wires. There is one thing.
however, which the city can properly do;
that would improve matters: 1t can re
quire the poles to be placed in the centre
of the street, and compel the use of larger
and longer poles than are seen in some
parts of the town.

the late legislature at Boise. They
had little conception of the duties and re
sponsibilities which they had accepted, and
were lacking in ability, while many of them
seemed vicious from instinct and training.
Some of the laws with which they marred
the statute books stand as an indictmen'
of the community which selected such
scrubs to make laws for them. What viii
Congressman say when these statutes are
read to them? They will be very apt to say
that if the legislators are the representa-
tive men of the territory, if they illustrate
the brains and integrity of the
community, Idaho is not in
condition to be intrusted with
hood; that a state government must be re-
publican in form and administration, and
its laws must be in harmony with the
democratic doctrine that all citizens are
entitled to protection in the enjoyment of
equal rights. Congressman will say that if
with their restricted power the Idaho men
will enact such laws, what would they not
do if the check which the federal govern
ment has upon them were removed?
THE HERALD regrets that the ''gem of the
mountains has so slender chance of get
ting into the union. We are heartily in favor
of the immediate abolition of the territorial
system which has imposed so many wrongs
upon American people, and which has been
outrageously unrepublican and Infamous in
its operation for the past thirty years.
Badly qualified as Idaho has shown herself
to be to maintain a republican state, we
believe greater hardship and more grievous
wrong will be done by continuing the terri
torial government than by making her a
state and permitting her to work out her
own destiny in her own way. And yet, we
realize that under the circumstances and
existing the effort for statehood
is almost hopeless. There is no such
eagerness to admit the territories as will
induce Congress to let in our neighbor,
which has lately been so unfortunate in the
matter of craftsmanship.

THE pANMARK,s PASSENGERS.

The best news that has come over the
wires for some time is that announcing the
safety of the crew and passengers of the
lost ship Danmark. For days the civilized
world has been exercised over the probable
fate of the seven hundred people on board
the Inflated steamer, and lately most per
sons had settled down to the conclusion that
all who went to sea on the Danmark were
lost. The news this morning is that all
are safe, with the exception Of the
engineer, who was killed by the burst
ing of an engine pipe. This affair
demonstrates again how well beaten IS the
track across the ocean. One day the Dan
marks shaft was broken, and the next she
was met by the Missouri, from London for
Baltimore and Philadelphia The Missouri
towed the disabled ship two days, and then
abandoned her in a sinking condition, the
passengers, meantime, having been trans
ferred. Other ships have since seen the Dan
mark. The Atlanticis so well Travelled that
ship would have to 90 from the main
lines to escape being seen every few hours,
and a vessel which can keep atloat two
DAYS and not drift off her course will
almost certainly receive succor. As a
matter of fact, there is greater danger of
getting lost on some Of tue western
prairies than on the ocean, and the risk is
infinitely greater in the mountains.

CORPORAL TANNER, the new commits
sioner of pensions, seems bent on giving
pensions to all who apply. One of his latest
rulings should encourage everybody who
ever had anything to do with the army, and
all the relatives of sick or dead soldiers, to
rush in with demands for cash. The case
was this: After many years Of civil life
an ex-soldier died of delirium tremens, and
some time thereafter MS widow applied for
a pension. The matter was investigated
by Commissioner Black, who after learn
ing all the facts was properly denied the
claim. The installation of Tanner. and
his talk about what he proposed to do, en-
couraged the widow TO renew her applica-
ton, and her appeal has been granted, the
commissioner saying the husband, who was
a notorious drunkard, may have contracted
the habit in the army while serving his
country

MURDER CONFESSED.
A Husband Killed by His Wife's
Paramour.

The trial at Easton, Pa, OF VIM. ii.
Bartholomew for the murder OF Wash
ington billiard was stopped suddenly
by a sensational confession. The wild
ow OF the murdered man came into
court determined TO go on the stand
and tell all she knew about the m arder
OF her husband, and plead guilty to
murder in the second degree. This
was great surprise to the lawyers,
and an adjournment was taken until
afternoon. Mrs. billiard was then lac
ed on the stand and testified that she
had sustained improper relations with
Bartholomew before the death OF her
husband. 1t was finally determined to
murder billiard, and the fendish plot
was conceived. Bartholomew fixed
billiards. gun so it would be useless and
then said he would come to the house
next night, make disturbance in the
chicken roost, when Mrs. billiard should
bring her husband out with the gun
and Bartholomew would kill him. The
programme was carried out. billiard
went out with the gun and was shot
dead by his wife's paramount. The VIC
man broke down several times while
telling the story. Before the murder
Bartholomew wanted to rent the farm
so they might all live together, and
when Mrs. billiard would not agree to
that, wanted her to go west with him.
This she refused to do as long as her
husband lived, and so the murder was
finally determined on. Mrs. billiard is
32 years old.

DEATH IN THE MINES.
Sixty English Miners Killed by an
Explosion.

An explosion occurred in the Benti-
lee colliery at Longton, county OF Stat
ford, Oct. 10th. Seventy miners were
in the pit ut the time OF the accident,
only eleven OF whom are alive. The
pit was completely wrecked, and the
task OF getting out the buried miners
will be one OF great difficulty. A band
OF volunteers is now engaged in max
ing explorations for recovery OF the
bodies. The men engaged in the search
for victims Of the explosion found fifty
bodies OF dead miners. The bodies Ic-
covered show the victims died OF gas
poisoning. The rcscucrs were com
PEELED to relinquish the search By the
accumulation of gas. The latest ad-
vices from the scene state that the fire
is raging and another explosion is fear
cd. The underground manager is
among the victims, The record OF men
down in the mine has been lost, hence
it is impossible to verify the number.
The latest estimate is that sixty per-
sons were killed.
