Suppose Minister Egan does want this Government to pay him 5000 for expenses incurred in providing n shelter for Chilean refugees. Is there anything unreasonable in such a request. Minister Egan only did what any humane officer would have done, and what every minister to Chile did do, in giving shelter to refugees. When Balmecada was in the ascendency. he gave refuge to the Congressional or the then revo- lutionary party as freely as he did to the adherents of Balmaceda on the overthrow of the latter. His ac- tion throughout the entire trouble has been honorable, consistent and honest, and there is no reason why the Government should not reim- burse him for the money that he has paid out.

The experience of Felix Kraemer,
 in escaping from the burning Hotel
 Royal at New York furnishes sug-
 gestion which may be of benefit, for emergencies of this kind. Kraemer
 was in an upper story of the build ing when the fire occurred, and gives his experience as follows: Had I not had a strong umbrella I should either have been burned, or killed by jumping. I have been burned out three times now. At the fire at Warrensburg, Mo-, a guest escaped by using an open umbrella to ease his flight from an upper story win dow. | never forgot it and since I have always been provided with strong umbrella for an emergency. As soon as I reached the window l opened my strong umbrella quickly and carefully and put a shawl strap over it, so as to prevent it from turn ing inside out. Then made the leap. I did not go sailing gracefully out into the air and land lightly on the ground, but landed without any broken limbs and am all right now. The umbrella partially turn ed inside out just before 1 reached the ground and got something of a jar but should consider myself lucky if I had escaped with broken leg" Parachutes for use in case of fire may yet become part of the regu- lar furniture of hotels just as life preservers are to be found on every teamer.

ASINyusrIcE TO rHE MAN.

"A person under the nom de plume of A. c. R. writes war democracy to the Prescott Courier. It is said that the writer of the article is the Episcopal minister of that city, the Rev. Meaney. If this be true, and so we arc informed by prominent Prescott democrat, then we think the gentleman has mistaken his call ing, as no man proclaiming Christ from his heart ever descends to vul- garism in his public utterances, and if the article on President Harrison of recent date over this A. c. K. doesn't verge onto blackguardism we are not competent to judge of such. " Phenix Gazette.
 The Gazette, through the infor- nation it has received, does Rev. F.. w. Meaney very great injustice, and our contemporary should de- fend an innocent man from the charge of blackguardism preferred against him, on account of the writ ings of correspondent who is ashamed of his own name and who has not the moral courage to father his own literary offspring. While it has not done so the JoURNAL-MrNER will state it knows for an absolute fact that Rev. E. w. Meaney has nothing whatever to do with the writings of the correspondent named. While Mir. Meaney, it is true, is a democrat of the most pronounced convictions. he is too honorable to write such tirades as have appeared over the nom de plume named. In his politics, too, like Mir. Cleveland he has the courage of his convic- tions and is neither afraid or ashamed to attach his name to any thing he might either write or say. But the greatest injustice of the above charge consists in the fact that Rev. Meaney is an intelligent and educated gentleman who is capable of thinking for himself. while the articles published by A. c. R., which contain any merit whatever, are the most fragrant plagiarisms ever at tempted to be perpetrated on un- suspecting readers, being copied bodil Y and literally from the column of the St. Louis Republic. We have
 cen instances before where writers sfor democratic papers had presumed on the ignorance of their readers, but we have never seen such glaring example of it as has been exhibited by the writer over the above nom de plume. He evidently thinks that he is the only man who takes the Courier, who also takes the St. Louis Republic and that he can fool the readers by his plagiarism. The greatest joke of this whole A. c. R. anonymous correspondence is that Rev. Meaney is subscriber to the St. Louis Republic and has openly exposed the plagiarism of the pre- tentious scribbler.

To use somewhat prorane but rather forcible expression, the national democracy is "between the devil and the deep sea" on the silver question. The Atlanta Constitu- tion serves notice on the party that if it fails to pass free coinage bill, the solid south cannot be maintain ed any longer. Eastern democrats have plainly said that if a free coin age bill is passed the party will lose the support of very large percent age ofeastern democrats.

A MORMON STATE NOT WANTED.

The JouRSAE-M MINER does not claim to be possessed of the spirit of prophecy, but it can link together the effects that will be produced by certain causes and guess pretty ac- curately the general results. It is not so blinded but il can readily see the danger ahead for the future commonwealth of Arizona if admit ted under the pro-Mormon consti- tuition adopted recently. It can predict pretty accurately, too, that many who are now criticising it for its position on this question will be found occupying the same position within less than five years after the State is admitted, if its admission is secured without any constitutional safeguard from this religio-political, hydra-headed monster. Men, who, today, arc willing. for the advan- tage to be gained temporarily, to
 close their eyes to the dauger, will open them to find that it is too late. No better evidence of the correct ness of the position taken by this paper is needed than the address issued some time since by the demo crats of Utah, and which was pub lished in these columns. Ii more evidence is required, We can give it by publishing telegram from Salt Lake dated February 5, in which the sentiment of people, who know by bitter experience what Mormon rule means, is voiced in memorial to Congress on the subject. It says:
 The Liberal Territorial conven- ton just held in this city was com posed of upwards of 300 leading citizens from the several counties of Utah. It adopted memorial to Congress against the passage of the Teller statehood bill. It attracts attention to the brilliant, record of the Liberal party and its great achievements; how 1t has secured legislation against the evil rampant here. It says that under these laws some progress has been made, but
 not sufficient tojustify the turning over of complete control to those who long have been hostile. who are yet imperfectly weaned from their old ways, and who so little compre- bend the true spirit of Americanism. It also calls attention to reason able doubts of the sincerity of the Mormons since their present pro fessions of party division and the re- jection of polygamy. It represents that the territory Is prosperous and getting on we'll under the present status, and asks time for changes that are going on to become crys- tallized and irrevocable before state hood, that cannot be withdrawn when once granted, no matter how much abused, be conferred upon Utah.
 It was resolved to send a commis- sion composed of men representing the varied important interests of Utah to Washington to present this memorial and to protest before con gress against the passage of the bills above referred to. The liberals now have a complete chain of protests againse these bills from wards, pre- cincts, city, counties and the terri tory at large. The city election takes place here next Monday with three tickets in the field, liberal, democratic and republican.

Coconino sheep men who remained in the country adjacent to the San Francisco mountains have had but few losses in their focks, but those who left early in the season for the southern ranges have had heavy losses, and the majority of them will look for ranges nearer home here after. The recent heavy rains in the southern part of the territory will be the means of saving the flocks that have been driven to that section.- Coconino Sun.

The following is the full text of the letter written by MT. Blaine to Hon. John c. Clarkson, in regard to the candidacy of the former for president: Dear Sir: l am not a candidate for the Presidency and my name will not go before the Re publican National Convention for nomination. I make this announce ment in due season to those who have rendered me their support. l owe my sincere thanks and am most grateful for the confidence. They will, am sure, make an earnest effort in the approaching contest, which is rendered especially impor- tant by reason of the industrial and financial policies of the govern ment being at stake. A popular decision in these issues is of great and will be of far reaching consequence."

While a few of the more rabid

While a few of the more rabid democratic papers are carping about President Harrison, the New York Sun says: "Clothed in calm, grave language, and breathing the spirit of dignified and responsible patriot ism. the message carries to congress and to the country all that is neces- sary for full understanding of the position which this government oc- cupies, and of the attitude which Chile holds toward this government, as the result of series of events which have brought the two nations to the very verge of war"
