RESCUED FROM DEATH.
Report of the Heroic Work Done by United
States Life Saving Crews During
The Yecr

the Year
WASHINGTON, D. c., Nov. 1.-THE
annual report of the general superinten-
dent of the life-saving stations shows that
during the last fiscal year the number of
disasters within the scope OF the service
exceeds that of any previous year by sew
enty-nine. This large excess is in meas
ure found to be due to the extension of the
service, but principally to the conditions
of weather which prevailed during the
year.
The number of disasters to documented
vessels within the field of the operations of
the service during the year was 4S3. There
were on board these vessels 5402 persons,
of whom 53S2 were saved and twenty lost.
The estimated value of the vessels in
volved was $S, .275, and that of their
cargoes, 81, Gas, 800, making total value
of property imperilled $10,647, ,235. OF
this amount $9,14 ,0S5 was saved and
81, ,502, $50 lost. The number OF vessels
totally lost was 49,
Besides the number of persons saved
from vessels of all kinds, there were ITO
wharves, piers, ETC.. the most of whom
would have perished without the aid of
the ife-saving crews.
The crews saved, or assisted to save,
379 vessels, valued with their cargoes at
/ s., ,561. .665, and rendered assistance of
minor Importance to 1S1 other vessels in
distress, besides from warning by the
signals of the patrolmen, 249 vessels.
! The general superintendent complains
that the appropriation made by the last
Congress OF a uniform rate of $1,000 per
| annum as compensation for the district
superntendent's action in reducing the
salaries of eight OF them from $500 to
$500 and increasing those of four from
$500 to $1,000 works an injustice. He
shows that the duties OF these officers are
of great importance and responsibility,
and that they are required to furnish
bonds ranging from $4,000 to $4,000, and
considers that $500 per annum is none
too large salary for each.
RUNNING HORSES At SAN JOSE.
Itco Stables of Good Ones to Be Quar-
tered There for Fear.
SAN JOSE, CAL, Nov. 17.-Burns g.
Waterhouse and Charles T. Boots have
leased Agricultural Park for year, and
are making extensive arrangements for
quartering their stables there. Burns &
Waterhouse have a stable of twenty-three
running horses at the track. The stable is
in charge of Ben Timmons and arrived
here from Sacramento last Tuesday. This
string is composed OF twenty yearlings and
three two-year-olds, and is valued at over
$50, 900.
A number of the youngsters were pur-
chased in New York recently for $3.50
apiece. There are also among them some
very fine animals that Burns & Waterhouse
bred themselves. These yearlings will be
broke to run on the San Jose track OF
the two-year-olds there is flly out OF
Fairy Rose, brother to Cadmus. OF the
yearlings some are Midlothians and others
Dorbin stock. This stable is the finest and
most promising lot OF runners ever got to-
gether on this coast.
c. T. Boots has twenty-six runners at
the track. Of these six will be taken to
Ingleside to take part in the events there
on Thanksgiving day.

BETWEEN THE DEEP SEA, ETC.

THE DISPATCH hesitates to say any
word to the Deseret New just at the
present time, because every one under
stands that its editor is between the
deep sea (the indignant Mormonsl and
the other party. The editor of the
News is in an extremely awkward po-
sition. He is democrat through and
through, bat with such an upright
leaning that democrats all over Utah
can see that the gentleman leans back
ward toward his friends. the enemy,
and has done so from the first. Even
in that position, democrats have re
respected him because of his evident
desire to be just and fair. But when
the News attempts to eXonerate
President Joseph F. Smith in
the part that he took in that infamous
bishops recommend business, and the
letter of endorsement which President
Smith wrote and knew was being cir.
culated and sent to every home in
Utah, all fair-minded men have cause
for indignation. And when the exon
Grafton Of President Smith is made
three years after the incident, the
affair becomes both ridiculous and con-
temptible. There is not a dlscrimin-
ating and unbiased mind IN Utah,
that does not see in this late-in-
the-day attempt to shield President
smith from that fact of mex
cusable partisanismt greater
cause for indignation than in
the original offense, because the pres

ment that a grevous wrong was
perpetrated by President Smith in lend

questionable methods. Instead of

OGDEN REvIEw.-The Hon. Frank j
Cannon is stumping the territory for
the republican party. He is saying a
good deal about home Industries and
protection to American labor. Mr..
Cannon represents Utah in congress.
He is also manager of the power dam
which is being built in the Ogden can
yon. The men who work on the power
dam are nearly all foreigners, mostly
Dagoes, pauper laborers from Europe.

DIGNITY is often mistaken for wis.

1t is often the case when men are de-

fancied or real insult to crawfish out OF
a controversy when they know that.de-

To put it mildly, Geo, Q, Cannon
did an unwise thing for himself, by

Mr.. Christensen left Sanpete county
fourteen years ago, yet he is called a
