A Vermonter's Suicide.

George E. Watson, a native of Yer.
mont, committed suicide, last week
by shooting himself through the head
Watson was engaged to be married to
Miss Amy Minor, a wealthy young
lady living in Providence, r.. |. He
had been living in San Francisco fol-
IL years. The death of the parents OF
Miss Minor resulted in her receiving
$4,000 as her share of their estate.
She also had an income from the es-
tate of another deceased relative. II
is believed that Miss Minors wealth
led HIM to think himself unsuited to
her, he being comparatively poor, and
that he feared the marriage would
result in unhappiness for the young
lady. Watson leaves two sisters liv-
ing in Burke, one brother in Fulton,
and brother and sister in Lyndon
vile. His remains were embalmed
and taken to Vermont.

There have been several articles
appearing of late in Utah papers
referring to George q. Cannon
and senatorship. We endorse
every word that has been written
setting forth the fitness of that
gentleman to wear the senatorial
toga. In sending him TO the SEN
ate the legislature would do a
great honor to the people of Utah
and for the gentleman himself ii
would demonstrate the significant
fact that after the elapse of many
years the people Of Utah remem-
Der how unceremoniously he was
expelled from Congress not be-
cause he was untrue to them IN
The least but for reasons which
are, we hope, buried with the past
forever The high honor is due him
and, il he will receive it, it should
be given him. His long services
and loyalty to Utah and her peo-
pie speak in a tone which receives
a pleasing response from each
heart. His qualifications are
equal to those possessed by any
gentleman in the land. His adj
dress is very pleasing and grace
full making him very easy to
approach, and as politician he is
one of the right kind for he will
neither sell himself nor the people
of Utah TO a goldbug. If this is
booming Mr.. Cannon, then let
him boom and well try and do
our part.

read of the manner in which the

men, that it affords me much
pleasure to receive from your
hands this copy Of Utah's Consti-
tuition. ! congratulate you upon
the outcome and upon the near
approach of statehood for your

nation of admission. But the
