Goodwin should not have the train slow up
down in the fields, then jump of so as TO
avoid the crowds at the depot, and skin
homeward by the backway, some very ter
rible occurrence might happen. He might
escape
Speaking of Judge Goodwin, by the way,
has anyone noticed the singular unaplmity
of the Tribune's Minneapolis dispatches on
this one point-that Judge Goodwin's ad-
dresses have all been graceful, witty,
eloquent and powerful; that Judge Good
win said this, and Judge Goodwin pointed
out that, and Judge Goodwin directed the
attention of the committee to the other
AS far as Varian, Allen and the others
we're concerned, they might just as well
have remained at Hogle's for any mention
their work received, vantte. Uanttas, Uanita-
tenn.
They say that when the news of Thomas
declaration on the Tatlock resolution was
wired to Minneapolis, VarIan wept thrice
and Brown went out and crew bitterly.
Judge Enos D. Hoge is a pretty good
man, 5000 lawyer, and a passable Demo-
crat, but he was no match the other day
for witness he was examining. 1t was in
a suit against the city for damages brought
by party who had fallen down an open
cellarway. The plaintiff was on the stand
and the judge cunningly set in to try and
prove from the mans own testimony that
it was his own carelessness that brought
about the accident.
'Now them" said the Judge sharply.

Now that the Kirmess is over we sup
pose it will not be outof order to direct the
attention of the management to one
vital mistake they made in allowing
one of its booths to be- used as
an advertising scheme by the Salt Lake
Tribune. About the most vulgar instance
of bad taste that it would be possible to
imagine was the adoption of the name
'Salt Lake Tribunen for the Kirmess pa
per, especially since one of the Tribune
staff was concerned in the Kirmess man
agement. 1t would have been entirely out
of place to select the name of eny local pa
per for the journal of the feir, which
should have been named simply 1.-The Kir-
mess,n but to select the Tribune was fla
grant bad taste both because OF the con-
nection of one of the committee with that
paper, and for the reason that other ladies'
asked to oficiate in the booth where the
paper was issued, were not consulted in the
matter, and could not help being offended
by being asked to pass ss apparent sup
portera of Tribune advertising scheme.
The adoption of the name was almost uni
versally condemned even in the committee.
when the question came up for discussion,
but through fear that the worthy object
for which all were laboring might be- de-
feated, the Objectionable pill was swal-
lowed and the matter allowed to stand as
it was.
The action of several of the committee
in wearing the Tribune brand on their
shoulders after all the feeling they knew
had been caused by the adoption of the
Tribune name is also decidedly open to
question. It was specially amusing to see
the brand on young girls, whose fathers
would send them to the nursery on bread
and water if they were caught scanning
certain matter that monopolises at least
one-quarter OF the advertising space of
this great family newspaper.
