our duty as ministers and citizens Per-
haps that is due to the fact that we have
given some attentions to both callings,
while you have not-at least. not so
much as we have. Now. goodbye.
Second-To the Editor of The Herald:
AS far as l can see anything in your ct
fusion in today's paper, you appear 70
Utah commission is guilty or not guilty.
Well, Mr.. Editor. I am sorry for you, but
I am not asking space in your paper 10
make any confessions. l have only ms ms
to say, that L have been personally &C
quain ted with one of the commissioners
for over twenty years, and from my ac-
quaintance with him [ want to say II
would take a great deal of strong eVi-
dence to make me believe he would be a
party to such a crime as has been at
tempted upon the people OF Utah py
some one. l have reason to believe ne Is
held in very high esteem by other MN
listers who signed those resolutions. he
has today my implicit confidence as
gentleman and as an officer, but II II
shall turn out that he is guilty Of partic-
ipation in this wrong wish to say that
have no words too severe to use IN
cOndemning him.
If you have the proof TO show that the
Utah commission is not guilty You mad
better be presenting that proof; for such
articles as your editorial and Walden s
open letter to me have done more TO oil
rect suspicion towards the Utah commits
sion than anything yet written by my
self or the ministers Of this city. When
you present such proof as will convince
any committee of honorable gentlemen
whom you and may name,-from three
to twelve in number-that the commits
sion is not guilty, am willing to guar
antee that every minister who signed
those resolutions complained of, Will sign
a set fully generating that body.
Now, [ know that this is asking YOU TO
prove a negative, which, in logic, | have
no right to do; but. Mr.. Editor. this you
can doubtless do if your position IN TO-
days paper Is correct.
Be it remembered. that we have not
said one word that we have applied to
the Utah commission, but II you, from
your position, see fit to make such APP
plication of what we said we shall pa
tieptly wait to see if you are correct.
I have no desire to notice your peculiar
style and assertions in regard to the
character of our resolutions or my arti-
Gle. Such methods are cheap and undig-
nified, and such shot, even when fired
from your heaviest gun, does not reach
me or my fellow-ministers We are at
present anxious to know the truth; and
/ would just as soon have it from YOU
as from anyone. If you are prepared to
tell us who the guilty parties are, let us
know; but. if not. you had better crawl
back in your shell and close it un on
this business.
L am most respectfully yours.

Gentlemen-A few words in reply to

assigned you in order to allow the heavy
guns of the editor of The Herald to be
trained upon me.

which yer speak of them as "a solid

Answer of the southern Pacific to a
Request for an Advance.
A San Francisco paper of last evening
states that committee of engineers met
II. J. Small, Superintendent of Motive
Power and Machinery of the Southern
Pacific at the Grand Hotel at noon. The
engineers expressed themselves as dis
satisfied with the present scale of mile
age paid by thu company. They thought
the mileage System good one, but that
the rate a mile should be raised.
Mr.. Small reminded the engineers OF
the proposition once made to them by
Manager Fillmore, by which the high
wages OF about 30 per cent. of the
engineers could have been lowered with
out affecting the to per cent whose wages
were not considered high by the company.
The only engineers who were being paid
too much under the old system were the
men south of bakersfield and east OF
Truckee.
The mountaineers. as II were, got in
and swayed the engineers and decided to
accept the present standard. In 30 doing
the mountaineers had maintained big
wages for themselves at the expense oil
the valley engineers. Mr.. Small said
that MIR. Fillmore was still willing To put
into operation the plan he proposed a
year ago, but which was rejected. The
engineers decided to take the matter un-
der consideration.
