HUMBUG.

The cry of humbug so frequently thrown
at new inventions and new ideas by profess
sional men, is simply to influence the
masses so as to blind them.
Again, what is denounced as a humbug in
one age, frequently becomes a blessing in
the next. Ineed only to refer you to his
tory to prove the assertion,
Harvey, the first discoverer Of the circu-
latiOn of the blood, was denounced as a
quack. Morse, the inventor of the tele-
graph, was considered crazy. Fulton, who
put the first steamboat on the Hudson, was
a subject of derision for his presumption,
but great and appreciative poster
ity now testify to their merit.
We might go on and multiply cases in
every department of knowledge, but it is
not necessary. 1t is the same about the
the rupture cure by DR.. Black
burn, Is E First South street,
While the would-be-wise of the profession
let no opportunity slip to tell their patrons
that DR.. Blackburn is mistaken, that rup-
ture can be cured only by surgical oper-
ton. Yet he is busy day and night curing
rupture in the best and most reptu-
able families in Salt Lake city, whose
evidence in the matter will sur
prise those old-time moss backs
who think and teach that everything is
false or true simply because pa said so.
Five years from to-day you tell an intelli-
gent man that rupture cannot be cured ex-
cept by surgical operation and he will call
you fool. The afflicted should go and see
for themselves

found his right side to be paralyzed
He fell into a state of Inconsistencies, in
which he remained until his death.
The remains were deposited in the receiV-
ing vault at the British naval hospital, and

the family that the remains be removed to
the United States in man of-war after the
lapse of year.

Nair, commanding the Omaha, will succeed
to the command of the squadron until re-

CARD OF THANKS NO. 9.

Dear Ptblic-We always had an idea that
you would give US the preference if we sold
cheaper than anyone else; our fondest
expectations are now realized. Thanks
many thanks.
In selling goods on such small profits we
can scarce afford to present you with ex-
pensive paper medals-which though hand
some, viii be found of no use whatever;
leather ones are better-there is nothing
like leather; it is tough, so are we; it is
elastic, we are little that way inclined

WA. Taylor.--Merchant Tailor.

The Bard of Avon" agreeing with other
great men, said, ''costly thy habit as thy
purse can buy, but not expressed in fancy;
rich, not gaudy; for the apparel oft pro
claims the man." Good dressing naturally
calls for the latest styles in cloth and make,
and a good tailor has become one of the
blessings as well as one of the necessities
of modern life Mr.. Taylor carries full
line of the very latest styles in domestic and
foreign goods. At his salesroom, No. As E.
Second South street, can be found every
thing in the way of cloth that can be desired
by the most fastidious. In this connection
it might be proper to state, that the prices
at this establishment are very reasonable.
His fine worsted suits at $780, and elegant
spring suits at $3.50, can not be beat bet
ween Chicago and San Francisco.

Secretary Proctor Believes in Sunday Rest,

On Sea and Land.
Especial to THE HERAID-Examiner Dispatch. !
WASHINGTON, March Secretary Proc
tor is an advocate of the Sunday rest law,
as will soon be demonstrated by the appear
ance of an order from the war department
abolishing the Sunday dress parades at all
the posts throughout the army. This sub
iect has been agitated in the annual reports
of army officials for years, but none of Mr..
Proctor's predecessors have seen fit to di-
rect the change. General Sheridan was
opposed to the abolition, which probably
accounts for nothing being done in late
years. The present commanding general,
however, believes that only absolutely
necessary work should be done in the army
on Sunday, and has strongly endorsed a
recent report of the inspector general of
the army, recommending the abolition of
the dress parade and all other unnecessary
work on the Sabbath. These papers are
now before Secretary Proctor, and although
he has not acted, he has remarked his hearty
approval of the proposition.

SAN FRANCISCO March 16.-Auckland
and Sydney newspapers give great PROM
nence to Samoan news. Their editorial
comments on the aggressions of this morn
ing are strong and bitter and reveal dissat-
isfaction in the colonies over the action of
the English government in this and other
matters.
The Auckland Herald in reviewing the
matter at length says in part:
1t is quite apparent to us now, or at
least it it universally believed, that the
English basely bargained Samoa and the
Pacific interests for the favor of
Bismarck, as that might bear on
European interests. The duplicity with
which an American was treated by two
European cOnspirators has all come out in
darker color from the firm action taken by
our great relationship Anglo Saxon race.
The American nation, compelling Germany
to recede from the position she has insol-
emily taken; bloodshed at Samoa;
encouragement of the pitiles mutual
slaughter of those unhappy islanders
to say nothing of the insolent demeanOr
toward British and American citizens.
Incited, as we now know these things were,
by the disgraceful completely of the Eng
fish government in German handed
doings, have produced an indignant sense
that has dealt sharp blow to our feelings
of loyalty and affection to the British gov
eminent.
On the other hand the open spirited con-
duct of the United States has stood out in
startling contrast and we venture to as
sert that action of that power, in compelling
Germany to go let go her grip on Samoa
has melted feeling of enthusiastic admira-
ton for the great republic, warmer and
more pronounced than has ever existed
among us before.
The history seemed to US like abrogation
of the English to the right of leadership Of
the Anglo-Saxon civilization in these seas,
and handing over the right to kindred ma
tons, equally, our kith and kin of the United
States.

Encouraging the Southern Negroes.

RICHMOND, Va, March 16.-Rev. Justin
D. Fulton, of Brooklyn, New York, last
night addressed an audience in the First
African Baptist church. Among other
things he said: LET the black man go to
work and make money, and then he will be
recognized. Let the black man have
money" said the doctor, ''he can buy
railroads in Georgia and other states where
the negro is not allowed equal privileges
with the whites, and then the former can
say to the latter, Now, if you don't behave
yourself, 1 will put you off my train" On
concluding he announced that he would
preach at the First Baptist church (white)
tomorrow night by invitation. The dea-
cons of this church met to-day after read
ing the Doctors remarks and unanimously
decided that the church would not be open
to him tomorrow

NEW YORK, March 16.-The citizens COM

letter from Admiral Porter in which he
says:
Confederate veterans are as of yore our

good qualities, which we might otherwise
not have possessed, humanity, sympathy
and magnanimous feelings toward those
who warred against the Union.
1.-THE north is full of prosperity and the
south under the new order of things is rap
idly following in her footsteps. The stars
shine brilliantly for US all, and having Sc
cured perpetuation of the union, it be-
hooves us of the north to assist those who
are now overwhelmed with adversely.
This is the best way to make a united
country. Thore should be no north, no
south, but one nation over which the stars
and stripes should wave forever
