A GOOD ONE ON GOODWIN.
Arthur McEwen Tells q Character
istic Story OF Him.

In a recent letter arthur MIC
Even tells this story on Judge
Goodwin, and all his friends will
recognize it as perfectly character
istic Of the Judge.
I see that the Liberals OF Utah
have nominated Judge Goodwin OF
the Salt Lake Tribune for Con-
gress. This is surprising, for the
Judge is a notorious law-breaker-
or at least law defer. When he
was editor of the Virginia City
Enterprise the town became over
run with dogs. The man who
didn't own a dog wasn't in the
swim. There were more dogs
than children. This annoyed
Judge Goodwin, and crossing
party lines, he proposed to me as
editor of the Chronicle, that we
should join in an anti-dog crusade.
We did so and aroused the supine
authorities. A pound was built.
poundmaster appointed, deputies
with lariats and a hen-coop wagon
engaged, and the catching Of the
ours commenced.
The morning after the first
days good work the Judge and I
shook hands and went around to
the pound to further gatify our
sense of we'll doing and pride CT
power.
There were ten dogs In the cor
ral-large dogs, small dogs, loafer
dogs, gentlemen dogs, and poodles.
When We looked in at them, the
eager and fussy poundmaster be-
ing with Us, the dogs-as dogs al
ways will under such circumstan-
ces, just like human prisoners
did everything they could to in
gratiate themselves. They wagsd
their tails, sat on their launches,
pricked up their ears. and smiled
at US. They capered around. and
sat up, and performed what tricks
| they knew. They got on their
hind legs, rested their paws on
the fence and got their anxious
faces as near ours as was possible.
"What are you going to do with
them?" asked the Judge.
"Knock 'em all on the head with
q club in about an hour, IL their
owners don't turn up, and OF
course they WON'T" answered the
poundkeeper.
"And what will the owners
have to pay II they do turn up?''
"Five dollars for every dog"
"And you don't think their
owners will Gomez"
"Nary. It's hundred to one
they won't, Judge. You know
yourself there's ten times too
many dogs to go around for the
population. I've been q reading
your splendid articles. De1n dogs
anyway Is my sentiments"
"And they do you credit" re-
marked the able editor, going
down into his pocket. "Ten dogs
fifty dollars. They are all mine.
Here's the coin; turn 'em loose"
And it was done.
It would shock the country to
have a man in Congress with SO
little notion of right and wrong as
that

The Fourth District.

Consideration Of the completed re
turns from the Fourth district show
the full measure of credit which is
due to the democrats of that district
and especially to their candidate for
congress, Walter H. Butler. Last
year when Horace Boies was elected
governor by plurality of 5000 the
republicans carried the district for
Hutchinson by eight votes. The pre-
ceding year they elected sweeney by
a,aoa votes. This year Butler was
elected by majority of 1,936, gain
Of 4, l5S votes over the vote of two
years ago. More than that. the demo
cratic state ticket carried the district
by majority of Il votes, despite the
fact that it failed of election in the
state by 1900 votes. This surprising
gain on the democratic state ticket
is due to great extent, no doubt, to
the influence Of Buffers campaign.
The following is the vote by counties
in that district on the heads of the
state tickets:

Facts Worth Knowing.

In all diseases of the nasal mucous
membrane the remedy used must be
non-irritating. The medical profess
sion has been slow to learn this.
Nothing satisfactory can be accomp.
lished with douches, snuffs, powders
syringes because they are all irritat-
ing, do not thoroughly reach the at
fected surfaces and should be aban-
doned as worse than failures. A null
titude of persons who had for years
borne all the worry and pain that
catarrh can infiict testify to radical
cures wrought by Ely's Cream BALM.

Invited Danger.
[By Mrs. Louise 8. Rounds, ]

1t is said that Lord Macaulay
prophesied that the United States
would never live to celebrate their
second centennial, the reason assigned
being that no nation can long survive
when the vicious classes are permit
ted to make its laws. There is much
truth in this statement whether we
accord to it the dignity of prophecy
or credit it to so eminent man. We
have been told that our cities are fast
becoming centers of dangerous pO)it-
ical power, in proof of which we
have but to study the political trick
cry of Chicago, New York, st. Louis
and other large cities in order to be-
come convinced that the half has not
been told us. 1t is an easy matter to
trace political action from its source
TO it's final result; law and common
sense should invite the attention Of
our statesmen, if we have any, to the
source of our troubles. 1t is hardly
possible to bring forward question
of more vital interest to this govern
ment than that of our invited danger
in the form of foreign immigration.
The drink problem, as also the
question Of capital and labor, is in
volved in this question of foreign
born citizenship. There is a strong
feeling, daily growing stronger, that
we have reached, if we have not al
ready passed, the point when prOmis-
cuous immigration is no longer safe
or desirable. A great tidal wave
seems to be bringing the worlds hu-
manity to our shores, until we stand
somewhat appalled, at tho vision
which greets our eyes at Castle Gar
den.
