Tho Arlington Hotel was the scene Of much
hustle aud wire-Pulling last week, when tho
committees from tie various cities which were
endeayoring to secure the next National Re-
publican Convention, established headquarters
as near the National Republican Committee
rooms rs they could possibly. Nearly all the
Committeeman had arrived by Friday evening,
and the work Of the delegations began at once.
The delegation from Omaha we're hustling in
the most approved Western style. as were also
those Of Minneapolis Chicago aud San Fran
CISCO and Cincinnati's people were putting in
their best ticks The Omaha delegation had a
large table covered with photographs, illustra-
tive OF that city's greatness of buildings and
the capacity Of its hotels to accommodate the
large crowd which is always on hand at Ma
tioual Convention. On Friday evening the
entire delegation visited the house Of Senator
Henderson fora conference, aud to select man
to fill the place Of Sir. Robertson on the Ma
tional Committee, that gentleman having sur
rendered his proxy because he is a Federal
oiiice-holder Hon. John NJ. Thurston was
/ finally chosen, after a spirited contest. The
! Minneapolis delegation also held a meeting
and decided upon their plan of campaign.
| They passed a resolution which was laid before
| the National Committee which says that
| public and party policy demand that the next
Convention be held in the Mississippi Valley
| and the Northwest, aud that as representatives
! Of St. Paul, Minneapolis. and the region tribu-
tary thereto, the National Committee should
not lose sight Of or disregard the claims Of
| this great aud growing Empire. The Cincin-
natl delegation were somewhat discounted
| when 10 was announced that Secretary Foster
who was expected to take part in the work Of
the delegation in securing the prize, was toe
i'll to work with them, he having returned
from New York suffering with a severe
cold. They, however. went to work with q
will, and did some good soliciting among the
| Committeeman. The San Francisco delegation
is here for business, and they are offering tC
pay the expenses Of all the delegates to the
Convention if the Committee will select thai
city. They claim that their hotels are the
finest and most commodious in the country
one of them CThe Palace) being able to aeeomO
date 1900 guests They think it about time
that the Pacific Slope should be recognized
The New York delegation were hard at work
and they show what advantage it would be Il
tho party to hold its Convention in the pivota
State. Their delegation is composed Of men o
National reputation who are competent 4
make the best possible showing Of the claims o
the Metropolis Chicago is doing little to Sc
cure the Convention.

Last Friday the 10 Democratic Congressman
from New England held secret meeting in
Boston, which is reported TO have been quite
stormy. The result was adverse TO Mills. In
stead Of having eight Of the - votes solid, with
expectations Of the other five coming over to
him, it Is said TO be doubtful II he will get even
six. The other seven, while rather incIining
to Crisp, were stronger in their opposition to
Mills than their support Of any other candidate
Springer Wilson, Of West Virginia, aud Nc
MILAN we're spoken Of with some favor.
The National tribune., 1891-11-26


The Naval Board appointed TO conduct the
recent trials Of armOr plate at the proving
grounds at Indiarf Head, visited the grounds
on Thursday, Nov. 10, and examined the backs
OF the plates which were fired at on Saturday.
Nov. IL While all tho plates made a good
showing, the superiority of the high carbon
plate treated by the Harvey process was mani
fest i'm the smaller number and extent Of cracks,
and in the fact that two shots on the right. hand
side Of the plate did not indcut the hack. On one
Of the plates both shots which struck in the
right-hand corners were stopped before they
had got their points tWo-thirds through, and
the portions Of the shells remaining outside
went all to pieces. The resistance was greater
than that shown by any other plate ever
tried in this country or abroad, so far as can be
IesrJand- Their, Was-9 ditTereuca Of .QRly half
in the right-hand side of the plate, showing
uniform hardness on that side, while on the
left-hand side Of the same plate one shot peue-
trated ~ inches and tho other I2t inches,
showing that while this side was much softer
than the other, the top was uniformly hard
with the bottom. When the s-ineh shot struck
this plate in the center, there was no change
in the condition Of the right-hand half, but two
cracks appeared-one extending from the GEN.
ter through the loft-hand upper hole made by
the 6-inch shot. and one from the center
through the left-hand lower hole. 1t il thought
that If the plate had had the same temper on
both sides. there would have been no hole
made through the plate and no cracks On
tho whole the trial was highly creditable to all
the plates
The National tribune., 1891-11-26

The most plausible explanation Of the sudden
desire Of the three gentlemen named to visit
New York is that il had some reference 10 the
unit rule. A more or less itful allegiance to
the rule is kept up among New York Demo
Gratis, though Sunset Cox found 10 his grief that
he could not enforce it when he was running
against Samuel Randall for the speakership.
Now, doubtless Crisp and Mills will each seek
4v--'.'vs s..s as-,'5' - - .s0-r zs-O- ef -Lhe
with Springer, will Sight it if they are not sure
Of a majority.
The National tribune., 1891-11-26

Three Of the prominent eandidates-Crisp,
Mills and springer-suddenIy packed their
grip-sacks one day last week and went over TO
New York. There could be but one interpre-
tation 10 this, and that was that some ones
fences were down, and that the others hoped
10 take advantage Of it. But whose were the
fences? Mills had been claiming New York
confidently, but that there was a break for
Crisp every one knew weeks before. Tammany
had pronounced for Crisp, but that pronounce
ment had been discounted and the fact put for
ward that Tammany, having a candidate for
Doorkeeper in the person Of Ioeman" Turner
il could not afford TO be very brash in opposing
any other candidate.
The National tribune., 1891-11-26

Itisannounced that the IOl Democratic mem
bers Of the Illinois Legislature who became ma
tionally famous during the long Senatorial fight
last Winter will leave for Washington Dec !
70 help Springer. This is a course Of doubtful
wisdom. Great bodies OF lobbyists have usually
hurt their candidates much more than they
helped them.
The National tribune., 1891-11-26

During the past week a series Of entertain
ments have been held in Washington in aid Of
the ex-Coniederatc veterans. During the day
meals were served, and At night a musical and
literary program would be given. These en-.
teriainments were literally patroHized by the
citizens, aud at the close Of the series on Thurs
day night IL was found that the sum OF g., 900
had been realized. This money VIII be devoted
TO the relief Of the eK-CoDfcderates and their
families resident Of the District Of Columbia
Senator Naleott defined his position on the
silver question 70 the Mining Congress at Dem
yer with great clearness. He Is for free silver

brings him into conflict with the President,

What uncounted gold would not the Wash
ington correspondents give for a photograph
which had been concealed in the back Of Blaine
and Foraker's carriage during their recent
drive.
The National tribune., 1891-11-26

And now Judge Crisp is being roasted by the
Democratic correspondents favorable TO the
other candidates. "Old Line Whig," " Pro-
tectionist," "Subsidist," Corruptionist," etc,
are among the "cpitaphs," as Mrs. Parting
ton would say, which are flung at him. His
supporters are accused of being lobbyists,
sehemers, Treasury hooters, advocates Of MIC
aragua Canal appropriation" "billion dollar
appropriationists," etc. am earnestly assured
that the trumpets which announce his election
will sound the signal for the Demooratic party
to march TO the rear. Thus it goes all the way
through the list.

Among other things, the tub man hears
all about the police muddle which has wor-
ried the people, the council, and heaven
forgive them. the poor old G RI down the
street called the Tribune. Her ''heard on the
sneak man" is also worried, poor fellow.
because he finds he cannot make the pub
lie and the mayor think as he does. Now,
it is bad enough to be silent man, but to
be unable to think thought is just the
condition of the old girl and her ''heard on
the sneak man." If they could think, they
would ask "How are we to swallow this
next February when the time CONES TO tell
that this has been the best and brightest
administration Salt Lake city was ever
afflicted with ?''

THE MAN in THE TUB

The imam in the tub'' sees much that the
imam on the corner misses. There are
many reasons for this, and ono is that the
man in the tub is considered to be so insig
niticant-so low down, as it were, that
most people are not careful about what
they say when lie is around. Another rea-
son is that the ~ man is something of a
silent man., although not councilman,
and silent men, you know, are coun ted fools
the world over. No one is particular as to
what he says in the presence of a fool.

Herbert Spencer

In a letter to a friend says: "In
my earlier days | constantly
made the foolish supposition
that conclusive proofs would
change beliefs, but experience
has long since dissipated my
faith in mems nationality"
1t may be the fervor of youth, but we cannot
agree with Mr.. Spencer.
Take the YOST for instance. We have taken
the most stubborn believers in other typewrit-
ers and have convinced them that the two
great feature of the YOST the ink pad instead
of ribbon and the center guide alignment, were
likely TO revolutioniZe typewriters.
Conclusive proofs did the work.
Conclusive proofs also established the BELIEF
! that the minor Improvements and features all
combined to make up perfect typewriter.
/ In the point of economy the most conclusive
| proofs are the words of those who have used
/ the Yost longest. There is one machine in Salt
! Lake that was used over two years without one
i cent being spent in repairs or ink-pads-and it
was in use every day during that time, except
! ing Sundays and holidays.
| The average cost Of keeping other type
writer's in ribbons and in repair is 80 per year
/ for each machine.
These are the kind OF proofs we like to show
| to busineso men.
Dear reader, conclusive proofs that the YOST
does better work and does it longer than any
| other typewriter; that the YOST is the most
durable. has highest speed and highest mani
/ folding power: that it is the most economical OF
all tyEewriters; that it is the nearest to perfee
ton in writing machines; conclusive proofs of
all these things are available to you.
Your early attention will oblige

THE REGULAR HOLDUP.

W. D. Gassett is Relieved of Sl25 in
Cash.
At about $3.50 last night w. D. Gassett
of the city water works department, was
walking up Second West street, and when
opposite the Deseret University two men
sprang out from behind the trees and or
dered him to throw up his hands. After
gazing down the barrel of a revolver. ap-
pearing to him to be as big as a smoke
stack, Mr.. Gassett concluded to comply
with the request, aud one of the footpads
then went through him and secured SIPS in
cash. Then the holdups ran off and the
victim went down to fire engine house No.
2, and notified the police of what had oc
Cured. AT last accounts the blue coats
were in hot pursuit.
