A CITY IN THE SEA.
Ruins OF u Largo Town Discovered mt the
Depth OF Eighty Feet.


Depth OF Eighty Feet.
The city authorities Mt Rovigno. on
the peninsula Of Iatria, in tho Adriatic
sea. have discovered. u little south of
the peninsula, tho ruins of n large town
mt the bottom Of the sea. 1t had been
observed for years that fshormens nets
We're sometimes entangled in what ap-
peared to be masses of masonry. Of which
fragments were brought up from tho sen
bed. Then diver declared that ho had
seen walls and streets below tho water,
and so the authorities of Rovigno de-
cided to investigate. They sent down n
diver, who, Mt the depth of so feet,
found himself surrounded Mt tho bottom
of the son by ruined walls.
Continuing his explorations, he traced
tho limo of walls and was able to dis
tinguish how the streets were laid out.
He did not soc any doors or windows,
for they were hidden by masses of sea-
weed and demonstrations. Flo traced tho
masonry for q distance Of 100 feet, and
there he had TO stop, for his diving cord
did not permit him to go farther. He
had proved beyond dopbt that he had
found the ruins OF once inhabited
town, which, through some catastrophe,
had been covered by tho sen. It is prob
able that these are the ruins Of the lost
town Of Cissa, upon the island Of that
name, mentioned by Pliny the elder. -

How They Break in Political

Special Correspondence

Special correspondence.
The democratic broncho busters, who
ride around the ring pen, bedizzened
and bedecked with cheap false jewels,
and wearing newly imported Wilson
bill shoddy clothes, are nothing more
nor less than so many animated signs
or sandwich men for that part of the
Santa Fe ring which sells the things
which "hts you like der bapers on der
vail, and the hlok-nOsed vendors of
of washed jewels false stone settings.
Yet they have their use and gain
many an uDwary customers for their
patrons, who furnish the ring riders
the OUTFITS which they wear free gratis
for nothing without paying a cent" or
at reduced prices, "mehin vrendt," so
that their appearance may catch the
eye of the inexperienced visitor from
the mountains, the meadows, or the
mesas, and excite him to emulate the
Santa Fe ring dude. In fact the ring
riders of Santa Fe r taught by their
Fagins to inculcate the theory that
neckties and store clothes will make up
for a lack of brains; so that when
the unfortunate to whom they haYe
sold their democratic shoddy wares re-
turns to his residence he is the but of
all bis acquaintance, who ask him if he
is just out as a sample case of DDS and
ends from a combined Dutch pawn
shop and British haberdashery. Truly
neckties and sh0ddy store clothes do
not make up for brains. x. Y q.

How Gold Prices Keep the Farmers Poor
Figures to Study.

How gold Prices Keep the Farmers Poor
Figures to Study.
The gentlemen of. Wall street and
other localities who are accustomed 70
talk Of large sums, without consider
ing that they are the aggregation of
the labor of millions of individuals,
have been figuring on the corn crop OF
this year, which is unusually large,
and which they say represents a value
of $3.50, 600, 900, figuring on a crop of
1850, 900, 900 bushels, worth 30 cents a
bushel. This enormous sum of money,
the eastern gentlemen figure, will re-
store all the farmers to prosperity and
kill the clamor for bimetallism, for it
is in connection with gold-bug argu-
ments that these figures are given out
with much flourish of trumpets by the
monometallic press.
But any amount of money, however
large, becomes small when it is divided
among a1arge number of persons, and
the product of the corn crop, even if
the eastern estimates are correct, will
not give the farmers who raised the
crop any money to throw at the birds
or pay their expenses for an extensive
European tour.
The Salt Lake Tribune has analysed
these corn crop figures with the fol-
lowing result:
ut is all right to aggregate these
tremendous figures, but let usget down
to the real facts. It is not certain yet
that there will be I, $500, 900, 600 bush
els. 1t is not certain that it will bring
80 cents a bushel, but we will suppose
that both hopes are realized. To raise
that $500, 900 bushels we find that last
spring 50, 900. 900 acres were planted to
corn. That gives q fraction over 81

Utah.

From our PoiYgamous Correspondent.
The democrats are bowling, moan
ing, yelling or sobbing, according to
the amount of election whisky they
have swallowed, "this is a democratic
year." and the republicans are agreeing
with them, and Laughing at them for
making it the democratic campaign
slogan, as the deople have given else
where the strongest evidence that they
do not want a continuance of demo-
cratic years. The trouble with the
democracy is its hypocrisy. They say
one thing and do another. Hence all
its prayerful addresses to the people to
catch votes, will be net with the stern
refusal by the people to be again de-
ceived into trusting the democratic
party with power. They may whirl
around like dancing dirYishes but they
can meyer make the voters believe that
they are or will be faithful to the sill
yer ause. The republicans on e.
other hand kept their promises and are
looked upon with favor and will gain
the support of the Utah voter, they
have come out squarely in the fnau-
cial plank of the platform as follows:
I'VE announce our continued allegiance
to the cause of silver, and look with
confidence to the republican party for
its establishment in full power as a
money metal at the ratio of 16 to /. and
without the consent of any foreign
nation, or any foreign domestic fnan-
cial prince or potentate."
The republicans all over Utah are
strongly supporting statehood which
means two more silver senators and
thus aiding on the cause dear TO every
westners breast and the cry of the peo-
pie of Utah is God-speed.
