H0MESICK AND STARVING.
Morgan Jones Rescued and Sent

Morgan Jones Rescued and Sent
Home to Illinois.
A very sad case was brougt to light by
the police department yesterday when
Morgan Jones, 81 years old, was found
and sent to his home in Pullman. H..
after he was washed and fed.
FROM Jones lips was heard a very pitt
tul story. 1t seems that about three
Weeks ago he left Pullman over the Rock
Island route with $50 and a deterrmina-
ton to get work in Salt Lake or the
nelghborinS mines as d laborer. He had
heard of the opalescent sunshine spok
of as lying beneath the shadows of Mo-
roni and he thought he would try his
muscle in that kind of atmosphere When
three days out on his trip, he says, he
was robbed of the cash with the eXcep-
zion OF - cents, which he managed to
hold until he got to Salt Lake and then
for two weeks he actually subsisted on
this amount.
II would rather starve than beg said
Jones, land for seven days [ did not eat
a bite of anything, nor have I had a
chance to battle or care for myself
Jones then explained that he was we'll
connected in Chicago and Pullman, and
that he was too much ashamed TO let his
wife, Ann, and his relatives, know of his
condition, and hence he was lost to the
world.
Yesterday morning Chief Pratt received
a letter of inquiry from his wife, encIos-
ing a. draft for SIS, and subsequently an
other registered letter containing money
With these Detective Sheets started out
houses and places OF human Judgment.
Finally, at the Albany, Jones was found.
He was actually starving and as filthy
as a human could well be. He had been
sleeping in outhouseS and only loafed
around the Albany in day time, but had
eaten nothing.
Detective Sheets broke the glad news
to Jones who broke into tears of joy and
cried all through his preparation for re-
turn home. A ticket was bought for him
and he left last night over the Rio Grande
Western. Jones was the happiest man
that ever left Zion for the orient

Third Ward Delegates.

The Third ward Democrats met last
evening in the old Third ward school
house for the purpose of electing del
egates to the county convention. There
was a numerous attendance of ladies
and gentlemen. George Stringfellow
was selected as chairman and John
Irvine as secretary.
In accordance with previous arrange
ment, the Hon. B. H. Roberts adj
dressed the meeting prior to the bust
ness of the primary. For nearly an
hour the honorable gentleman dilated,
with great clearness, upon the princi-
pies of Democracy. He dealt with the
questions of tariff, bounties, silver and
in conclusion showed that in all the
steps leading up to statehood the Dem
ocrats had always been to the front,
and, therefore, the people mindful OF
the fact, would surely never permit
the state of Utah to enter into the
Union as a Republican state. The adj
dress of Mr.. Roberts was mastery
effort. He spoke with his usual ease
and eloquence and resumed his seat
amid hearty applause.
Judge Judd, who happened to be on
the platform, followed with a short
address, showing up in his. own mimi

Philip Maycock, Mary Irvine, James
W. Eardley. George Stringfellow, Fer

The Broadax is the name of a new
colored paper the initial number of
which came out yesterday. It is Dem
ocratfc and gives some very good adj
vice to the colored voters. It points to
the defeat Of Bruce Johnson as an
example Of the love borne for the ne
groes by the Republican party In the
opening address Mr.. Julius F. Taylor,
the editor, says;
There is no logical reason why a. colored
man should be a Republican any more
than he should be a Mormon, Methodist
or Baptist. 1t is time the colored peo-
pie should act from reason, and not from
impulse and prejudice. This is an active
age; new questions have arisen; the old
have passed away, and if we keep pace
with the progress of the age, we must
deal with live questions, and not with
those that are dead and buried. AS long
as the colored people align themselves
with any political party, for no other
reason than for a prejudice or for a SELL
timent, so long they show to the world
they are not as broadminded and intelli-
gent a class of people as they ought to
be, and must be, before they are entitled
to the recognition they deserve.
Tribune Eats Grow.
And now comes the authenticated
tale that, although the Tribune gang
is putting on face of rejoicing over
the nomination of Heber NJ. Wells, the
fact is that never was the knife
plunged deeper into the Vitals Of the
organization.
Readers of The Herald have read
that the OquiTrh club will ratify the
selections made in the convention, at
the theatre next Monday evening" In
asmuch as the club won a victory in
the convention. even in the selection of
Mr.. Wells, it was meet and proper it
should ratify. AS soon as this deter
mination was reached the chairman of
the organization called upon the chair
man of the territorial committee, Mr.
George M. Cannon, and informed him
of the determination of the associa-
ton. Mr.. Cannon professed to be very
much pleased at the action of the So
ciety. He admitted that the territorial
committee was not fixed financially;
that it could. not afford to go to the
expense of hiring the theatre, band
and all that sort of thing, and congrat-
ulated the Oquirrh boys on the fact
that they were. Heber M. Wells, too,
was delighted to think the Oquirrh
would get together and celebrate his
selection. Other candidates smole
broad smiles in anticipation of the
coming event.
McCallum hustled for brass bands;
Fred Dennis wrote poetical circulars
of invitation; Bloor rustled around and
secured the theatre, and the other
members secured the town for ban
ners and other decorations, and did
other little odd jobs calculated to make
the affair grand success.
Just as the enthusiasm had reached
its height; just when joy had donned
her red dress preparatory to do
ing the unconfined waltz-George
NJ Cannon came in with his face
little longer than usual. He was sorry,
he said, to learn there were objections
to the club holding meeting, such as
was projected.
McCallum, with that bland and

NAG pemocratic Nominee.

Talk about Wells opponent was still
very common yesterday. There was
no settled idea as to just who ould
be nominated. Moses Thatcher was
pushed forward to a great extent. But
ii is known that his health would not
allow him TO take upon himself the
onerous burdens OF governor. The
senatorship is the only Office his
friends would advise him to take.
George " Thatcher was also men
toned. However, the possible candi-
dacy of Moses Thatcher for the sem
ate would cause him TO refuse the
nomination. Brigham Young, for rea-
sons best known TO himself, but evil
dent to those acquainted with condi-
tions, was announced as being unable
to run. r. c. Lund of st. George has
business interests that must suffer.
Richard w. Young, who has been men
toned, has told his friends he could
not accept.
The talk during the afternoon, there
fore, narrowed down to a great extent
to Anthony W. Wins of st. George
While Mr.. WINS is not seeking the
nomination and his business interests
would suffer if he accepted, still his
friends do not doubt that if the nom
ination were offered to him as the
voice of the party, he would accept
and make a good, strong campaign. At
some Of the city caucuses last even
ing there was a great deal of enthu-
siasm for him, as he combines ali the
points of strength alleged in. favor of
Heber NJ. Wells, with a better ac-
craftsmanship with publis affairs and
a record showing the position would
not be too large for him.. 1T looks as
though a far reaching boom will be
started for him before the convention
meets.

BEFORE this campaign is over thSRe
n,,bl;cans will have some very impor-
tant truths impressed upon their mem
cries. They will learn that popularity
in certain directions does not always
mean popularity before the voters
They will learn that the power to act
well the governors part on the stage
does not mean that the man can sue
cessfully create the part in real life.
Above all they will learn that a
fierce light beats upon the man VINO
aspires to high places. In his morS
humble walk he might be CONSIDERED
the prince Of good fellows; he might
be considered a capable business man.

when he desires to rise above MS po-
sition into something of far greater
Importance then even his friends Will
begin 20 regard him in a new way.
vali:ugs that have never before left
an impression will be magnifi !. Nir-
tues that sufficed for his former con-
dition viii be minimized. His whole
appearance before the people will be
changed. Criticism that was never
before leveled at him will have Tree
scope and will be allowed to dwell on
those things which would unfit him TO

VIII Grow weaker.
"Heher NJ. Wells will grow weaker
from this time on said a prominent
politician yesterday. "On election day
he will be just as nice a fellow. He
viii be just as clean. He will have
Just as many friends. He will be as
popular as a young business man. He
will attract as much applause when
he goes on the stage. But he will have
shown that he is not yet experienced
enough TO undertake the duties of the
first governor of the state Of Utah.
That is an office which will test the
full power Of the brainiest man. The
governor must guide the state during
the first years of its development, have
a heavy part in shaping the legislation
and in carrying out the various laws.
To take young man with no pre-
vious experience in an executive de-
partment, with no foundations of good
practical principles of government, one
who has kept out of touch with the
vital questions in the state for some
years, as Wells certainly has, and put
him into the office would be a misfor-
tune"

The fight for the control of Salt
Lake county outside the city will be
very interesting this year. The Re-
publicans claim that they have a safe
working majority and could elect a
yellow dog on their ticket. They had
nearly 700 last fall and actually have
the presumption to claim that this will

Republican Harmony.

Republican harmony seems to be
one of those ''iridescent dreams men
toned by John J. Ingalls,. The Tri-
bune yesterday continued its attack
on Crane, declaring that the Tribune
had downed the corrupt element OF
the party. The Crane men yesterday
were up in arms against this propo-
sition. They declared that it was
such an insult as they could not afford
to stand without some pro1est. They
are now more determined than ever to
fight the Tribune. The extent of this
idea is shown by an Ogden Standard
editorial, reading as follows:
Hon. Chas. Crane was yesterday defeat
ed in the house of his friends Men who
owed their exalted positions 10 Crane
proved -ecreaut to his cause. Charles
Crane was defeated by those whom he
trusted; by those in whom he believed
by those whom he had honored; by those
who had promised him support; by those
who held the cup OF promise to his lips
and broke It TO his neart All the tricks
and schemes known TO politics were ex-
hausted by INSCRIPTIONS tricksters to
accomplish the defeat of Mr. Crane, but
while they accomplished their selfish de-
signs in defeating Crane they suffered a
greater calamity in having their own can

ter blocks and completely annihilated In
fact he was not even considered as a

It has at last been taught that its lying
sheet has no longer influence in Utah.

THE COMPANY NO LONGER LIABLE.

Judge Beekman. OF the Superior Court. has gwen
judgment for the New-York Lake Erie ana west
ern Railroad Company upon demurrer interposed
TO the complaint OF Edwin X. Virgins through his
guardian Augustus s Virgins in an action brought
against the company and its receivers. John King
and John G.. Mccullough, to recover $lorO damages
for being elected from one OF its trains.
Judge Beekman holds that railroad company
whose line mas passed into the hands OF receivers
by judicial appointment is not liable for injuries
accustomed to a person or property while the road
is being operated by receivers. The appointment OF
the receiver dspaces the corporation from ali con
trol over the use of its property. The Judge nous
that the complaint fails to set out any cause OF
action against the company and therefore the com
pany is entitled judgment on the demurrer dls,
missing the complaint. The cause of action SUI
stands against the receivers.
