The Reorganization Racket.

The Idaho Democrat says, that
the Haley lawyers claim that the
proceedings had after Clough and
Burkhart deposed themselves were
illegal, and are making show of
contest. But Judge Mayhem, who
so innocently, unsuspiciously and
yet so delightfully."- sprung the trap
into which Gen. Alphabet and his
man Clough tumbled out of sight,
is himself a lawyer, and good one,
knew what he was doing So did
General Johnson know, as did U.
S. Attorney Hawley, ex-delegate
George Ainsley, Joe Huston, T. D.
Catalan, John S. Gray, John M.
Lamb, and F. Wood.
1t would seem from the above
array of legal talent, that it would
be a pretty hard matter to get
around if an effort was made to
blot out 'old mother" earth if those
luminaries pronounced it right,
even if the "modus operandi" was
q little irregular.

We do not pretend to notice all

Mr.. EDITOR: 1t is a pity to observe
from time to time your contemporary
descending to personalities by taking
advantage, no doubt, of what are
simply printers errors. In a late
issue Of the D. B. are some of the
same class, which you have failed to
notice. For instance,i it is asserted that
the Australia Will only burn $50 tons
coal in twenty-four hours, or about
one-third less than she consumed
before. Great Scott!!l or any other
man. In other words, the editor,
means to say she burnt formerly
22I tons, which will now be reduced
to 10 tons per hour!!! Perhaps he
will be surprised to know that the
largest passenger steamer afoat does
not consume anything like the above.
He evidently meant &c tons per day.
But even this is nothing to boast of,
as the writer has travelled by 1900
ton mail steamers consuming only
half that quantity daily. Let him
put this into his pipe Tor funneD and
smoke it.

'Will you kindly allow me to stand?'' asked
gentleman as he got into a railway carriage,
which carriage already contained the specified
number.
Certainly not, sir" exclaimed passenger
occupying corner seat near the door, 'The
way these trains are overcrowded is shameful"
"As you appear to be the only person who
objects to my presence" replied the gentle
man. II shall remain where am"
Then shall call the guard and have you re-
moved, SIR"
Suiting the action to the word the aggrieved
passenger rose and putting his head out Of the
window vociferously summoned the guard. The
newcomer saw his opportunity and quietly
slipped into the corner seat
What's up?" inquired the guard as he opened
the carriage door.
Zone over the number" replied the new
conner, coolly.
you must come out, sir; the trains going
on" and without waiting for further explana-
ton the guard pulled out the sggrieved passe n
ger who was left wildly gesticulating on the
platform.
