The Republicans in Congress seem
to have been brought to their milk at
last; but only through the most ener-
getic pleading of Colonel Trumbo and
others who have HE'D themselves east

too late, however The evident inten- |
ton was to kill the bill, and the fact |
that they have been shown the error |

In the debate in Congress yesterday. |
Senator Gray called the turn on Hoar |
by referring to him as "a common scold''
"a cognomen that seems to fit, and |
which Hoar, it would appear, in the !
light OF recent developments, will grace
fully wear.
In the language of the day, the ac-
ton of the Associated Press in refer
ence to the Hawaiian matter. gives one |
that tired feeling. Out of all that has
been received and published in Salt
Lake. there has not been one fact given.
1t is stated upon good authority - A
gentleman high in official position gives
it as a fact"-"There is very good
reason to beIieve''-"Fron an inner
is more than likely'-These are some
of the stock expressions of the wise
reporters of the association. There is
just about as much satisfaction in all
that has been sent as there is in the
native columns of the Cherokee Advo-

The foreign portion of the world
seems to be in very critical condi-
ton just now. When a villain like
valiant can commit such a heinous
act, and then be toasted because of his
good work, it is time to ask Whittier
are we drifting?"
That was a great stroke of Governor
Lewelling. of Kansas. ordering the Of
f1cials under his command to refrain
from arresting tramps. 1t is bearing
such fruit as he might have known it
would. Knowing they are above pun
ishment in Kansas, hundreds of tramps
are f1ocking in and becoming SO inso-
lent in their demands upon the citizens
that it would not be at all strange if
the people are compelled to organize
vigilance committees and take the law
into their own hands. Governor Lew
cling seems to well deserve the title

The mayor has disapproved the pub
lie printing ordinance, and once more
demonstrated that he is a friend of the
public, 1t would be a fitting end of
the present council if it were to pass
the ordinance over the veto of the
mayor. And then as the crowning act
of infamy, put through that proposed
ordinance reducing the salary of the
mayor to IS, the recorders to 500 a
year, and otker salaries in proportion.
There is yet time for q, death-bed re-
pentance. If they want the citizens of
Salt Lake to entertain the least SEM
blance of respect for them, they will
take advantage of the opportunity thus
afforded.
When Mr. Dolan came home to his
supper, he found his daughter at the
piano busy with some chromatic exer-

An exchange spoils half-a-column in

1t strikes me it is the unengaged girl
who needs the advice.
The Roman houses and palaces were
so imperfectly lighted, it is said, that
in many places the inmates were forced
/ to grevel in the darkness more than
half the time. In this the Roman pal

be justly compared at the present writ

Nevada was admitted as state on
