A COMPLIMENT TO NEVADA,

In the Salt Lake Tribune OF Friday
last Judge G. G. Goodwin editorislly
pays the Battle Born State tho fol-
lowing compliments
Under the head Gan Unnatural
Union" a contemporary derides the
idea Of joining Utah aud Novaaa.
Probably the men in charge Of this
contemporary do not know that they
o once one Territory. We arc not
anxious at all for consolidation, but
we object to some Of the reasons
which this contemporary gives why
consolidation must never be. For
instance, it uses this language: "The
cold blooded proposal to link tho fate
Of young, blooming, virile Utah with
played-out Nevada is worse than
wedding May and December, and it
gives Utah the shudders to think Of
it."
How long since Utah became young
and blooming? How long since Ne
vada was played out? The first set
tiers in Nevada were emigrants from
Utah. In point OF fact, Utah ia
blessed with railroad facilities; labor
has always been cheap for the usual
occupations of life; Nevada has always
labored nnder the disadvantage Of
having no railroad to its chief miner
al belt, and the extortions Of the
railroad monopolies in that State, and
the iInpossibility OF getting the low
grade ores of that State to market,
have kept it back; but Nevada has
been a great deal to the United
States than over Utah has been, and
the possibilities OF Nevada are greater
than those OF any other State OF the
West, 80 far az mining is concerned.
Oppose the union as much as
may be, but do not Islander Nevada,
and especially do not give away the
fact that the man who writes has neg,
lected to ascertain the facts about
tho history of either Utah or Ne
vada.

FOR RUssIA's STARVING.
The Atlantic Transport Line Tenders The
Steamer Missouri to Carry Sup
plies to Russia.

The Atlantic Transport line steamer
Missouri will sail for New York March
18th, on a mission OF mercy to Lis
bon, on the Baltic sea, in northern
Russia. President Baker, OF the At
lantic Transport line, offered the
steamer today to W. c. Edgar, mana
ger OF the Northwestern Millers, to
carry the 10000 tons of food which
has been collected for the famine
stricken peasants of Russia. Later in
the afternoon Baker received a tele-
gram from Edgar accepting the offer
which is equivalent to a contribution
OF $4,000. The Missouri will be COM
manded by Capt. Gates, who was her
chief officer at the time OF the Den
marks rescue. Everything in connec-
ton with the Missouri trip will befree.
Thomas Hogan & Sons, stevedores,
have applied for permission TO load
the ship at their own expense.
The Berwing-White Coal Mining Co.,
OF New York, have offered to coal the
ship for her trip. The New York ware
houses will store the supplies until
ready for shipment. No wharfage
charges will be made. The New York
Central Railway will collect the food
and deliver it in New York and the
underwriters are now consulting
whether they can insure it without
cost. The 10000 tons OF flour will
not much more than hall fill the Mis-
souri, as she has u carrying capacity
OF $4,000 tons. All that may be re-
ceived up to the time she sails, in ad-
dition 70 that already on hand, will
he sent over in her.

Bo'sn Riggin, American Tar.

Boston Journal: The relatives OF
Charles William Riggin, b~oatswain's
mate OF the Baltimore, who was shot
and killed by the Valparaiso soldiers
or police, propose to take measures
to secure an indemnity from the Chill
ian government. Their efforts have
brought to light the record OF the man.
He was a native OF Philadelphia, and
had been in the navy continuously
ever since he was sixteen years OF age.
His record in the service "A eXcep-
tionally good. He was a born sailor
and man-o-NSar'S and at the
time OF his death was serving his third
reenlistment. In 1887 he had re-
ceived a medal OF merit for Fidelity,
zeal, and obedience" on the flagship
Tennessee, OF the North Atlantic
squadron, and though a young man
he had obtained a position OF some
responsibility on the cruiser Balti-
more. Riggin seems to have been a
seaman OF a superior class-energetIc,
intelligent and entirely trustworthy,
But this fact has not saved the poor
fellow from the emo OF certain mug
wump editors, who have FASTENED to
attribute his murder to n mere
drunken row." and to describe 1t as
a "trifling injury" But the American
people been quick to defend the rights
of their sailors since the days oil the
Leopard and Chesapeake.

A Mock Investigation.

On the resolution offered in the
house last week to investigate the
Mckinley law on the agricultural in
dustry, Funston, OF Kansas, said II
he believed there could be a fair and
impartial investigation OF the effects
OF the present tariff law on the agrI-
cultural interests, he would be in ia
VOL OF it. 1t could hardly be expect
ed, however, that an investigation OF
this character would be made without
being upon partybasis. The fact that
the house went into this investigation
was a declaration on the part OF the
house that it believed the Mckinley
bill injured thefarmers OF thecountry.
This is not true. The duties on farm
ers' have been increased, while the
things the farmer had to buy were to-
day cheaper than before the Mckinley
bill passed. Funston was frequently
interrupted by Livingston and Wat
son. OF Georgia, but declined TO yield,
remarking that they had told the
farmers contrary, because they would
not have been elected had they told
the truth. He understood the chair
man of the ways and e commit
tee would report a bill to remove the
duty on wool, one OF the products oi
the farm. The only enemy the farmer
had was the Democratic party. Why
did not the committee report a bill
repeating the present tariff law? Be
cause it a afraid OF the question.
Because it did not want to touch the
subject until after the next election.
Ii contented itself with condemning
the Mckinley bill. Whenever there
was a cold blast from the north, when.
ever there n a drought, whenever
grasshoppers destroyed the farmers
crops, the Democrats put their hands
in their pockets and said: cit is the
Mckinley law"
