Teaching the Bishop to Talk welsh.

The author of yorkshire Folk Talk
tells an amusing story of an English
bishops struggles to master the Welsh
tongue. He had been appointed to the
Welsh see of st. David, and on taking
up his abode in Wales engaged native
Welsh scholar to give him instruction
in the language. The pronunciation,
and especially the IL, bothered the
bishop. and the Welshman was almost
at his wits end to explain the lingual
process by which the formidable sound
was to be uttered. At last a bright
thought struck him, and, being obse-
quious in manner, he thus addressed
the bishop: Your lordship must please
put your episcopal tongue to the roof OF
your apostolic mouth, and then hiss like
goose. IN. Y. Tribune.

In 1860 all merged into the present Re-
publican party, and it is the legitimate
succession of the Hamilton party, and the
Democratic is the successor of the jefferson
idea Of government.
From the earliest days the struggle for
and against power has been continuous.
Our people are making a fatal mistake, if
observe the current of affairs correctly,
when we note that those who are sent to
the national Congress almost seem to for
get to be patriots, and when we see that
o ur great cities are passing into bands of
rings, and, can, by money, elect a presi-
dent and whole state be corrupted for
partisan ends, fear for the result.
When we see men manifest little interest
in politics there is cause to tremble. II
the intelligent and honest abandon the

In the rule of the people, when the hon
est masses of the rural districts can gov

Let ne say to every young man, it is a
part of his duty to see that upright men are
selected for office as well as to make daily
livelihood. If this is to be a government of
the people, by the people and for the peo-
pie, we must see to it that 1t is not sold to
the highest bidder, as was Rome.

Salt Lake, Plated.
FACTORIES TO BE ESTABLISHED
The Indiana Excursion Due Here About the
Middle Of Next Month-Busi-
ness Briefs.

Those interested in the Ameri can Natura
Gas company have purchased about 36O
acres of ground and plated it into forty
five blocks, to be known as the town of
Woodman, in Davis county, about ten
miles north of Salt Lake The site is said
to be good one, extending almost from
the slope Of the hill on the east to within a
short distance of the lake on the west.
The Rio Grande Western almost bisects
the townsite and the Union Pacific and
Hot Springs lines will also make connec-
tions there
Already arrangements have been per-
fected for the location of glass plant suf-
tcient for the manufacture of bottles and
window glass, and also plant for the
manufacture of gss mixers and appliances
TO be used in and about the consumption of
gas. When in full operation each of these
VIII require about two hundred hands to
conduct the work.
The much-tal6ed-of excursion, ito be
composed Of capitalists from the gas fields
OF Indiana, will start westward about the
10Th or 10Th of May, and the chamber of
commerce is expected to arrange a special
programme for their entertainment while
in this vicinity.
The wells of the American company are
said to have an output Of about twelve
million cubic feet per day, and it is esti-
mated that two of them would be more
than sufficient to supply all the demands Of
Salt Lake at this time.
Tree planting has begun at Woodman.
