THE LEAD RourE.

CHICAGO. Feb. 5.-Victor H. Lehner,
a travelling salesman for the Great
Northern Moulding company, shot him
self last night in the left breast. He was
taken to the hospital where the wounds
were pronounced fatal. Financial troubles
are said to be the cause of the at
tempted suicide. In his pockets were
found letters written to his wife and a
friend at the university of Wisconsin.
The letters were written on the back of
receipts given him by the Lindell hotel
of st. Louis. From this it is thought the
deed was contemplated in St. Louis
where Lehner was stopping the latter
part of January.
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1896-02-06

The total receipts for 1895 are 81, 146.
These figures are offered in evidence
to show the volume of interest taken
in the chamber from year TO year.
From them ii will be seen that the past
two years have been passed in strug-
gle for existence, and 1 assure you that
only the persistent determination of
the members of the directory have
kept off impending death. The signs of
coming prosperity exhibited in 1887
were truthful. We all know what has
been the marvellous march of the city
since that time. In population and
wealth she has more than doubled.
She mas silenced by her sturdy growth
every envious neighbor, and is now ac-
cepted as the greatest center of trade,
population and finance in all the

BIG PARTY SPLIT.
Texas Democrats Have Trouble on
Their Hands

Their Hands.
AUSTIN, Tex, Feb 5-The state
Democratic executive committee, which
convened in this city today, is, from
the recent indications, about to lay
the foundation for one of the biggest
party splits ever heard of. The row
is over the matter of holding one or
two state conventions. The gold men
favor two conventions. one to select
delegates to the national convention
and the other to make state nomina-
tions. The silver men favor one and at
a caucus held they developed a
strength of sixteen votes out of a pos
sible thirty-one, which goes to prove
that they have the situation grabbed
by majority of one vote Governor
Gulberson, Ex-Governor Hogg and
Railroad Commissioner John Eagan
are ali working hard tonight and it is
generally believed that one convention
we. be voted tomorrow. If it is, the
gold n1ssn swear they will not agree to
abide by such a proceeding, and a
party split seems inevitable.

BOND ISSUE.

Mr.. Teller Rep) of Colorado took
occasion during the debate to refer to
the success. of the bond issue. Large
as the offerings were, they would have
been larger if the secretary of the
treasury had received bids at a fixed
price for the bonds. Clumsy and awk
ward as this bond submission had
been, lacking the essential features Of
a popular loan, yet it completely an
swered those who had talked of the
necessity Of looking to foreign syndi-
Gates to sustain our credit.
The debate ON distributing the appro-
priatfon bills ran through the entire
afternoon and was not concluded when
at 1870 the senate went into executive
session and at $50 adjourned until to-
morrow.

A MIGHTY WORK.

I cannot state with eUactness what
part the chamber had in bringing
about this transformation. But l do
know that in the sunshine of prosper
ity and in the gloom of adversityN it
has kept an uninterrupted current of
well prepared literature flowing
through the land. That it has main
tanned a valuable classified exhibit of
the resources Of the territory. That it
has entertained strangers and sent
them away impressed with the beauties
of the city. and the marvellous wealth
of the state. That it has encouraged
many movements of public Importance
and. in fact, that it has done all pos
sible with its resources and opportu-
mites to foster and develop the city and
state. Whatever it has accomplished,
never, probably. would have been &C
complished without it. And whatever
that is be it great or small, stands
TO its credit. and justifies its existence.
Its history is replete with fluctuations
in its membership and finances. The
membership tide reached hundreds at
its organization, and fell to below 80
in 1894, During the past two years
by persistent effort, the list has been
increased to about 200, 800 less than at
the present rate of dues, is necessary
to render the chamber thoroughly ef-
fective. To a few men who have never
faltered in their support and loyalty.
and to the work of the last board and
preceding directories, more than TO the
general business public, is due the cir
cumstance that the chamber lives to
receive this report. 50 much for the

AsTOUNDED EXPERTS.


The immense offerings astOunded ex-
perts. The bids literally swamped the
treasury department which was 50
taken by surprise that at o'clock TO-
night. although extra clerks had been
hurriedly drafted the work of tabulat-
ing the bids was still in progress. and
it was impossible to tell with definite

Morgan & Co. Harvey, Fisl, & Co, and

Nearly all the leading New York bank

KNEW ALL BUT ONE.
A Whole English Regiment Made Up of
 Questionable Characters.

The story is told of an English mil itia regiment whose reputation was none of the best tnat on one Occasio on d detec- tive from Scotland asked to be allowed to i.-s..cet thc reg .mant to discover ii possible if 6 certain nsalefactoT were in the ranks. Permission being given, the detective, accompanied by the adjutant of the regiment, made tour of the vari- GUS companies,a front rank and rear rank. When the official had got to the last man of the rear rank of the rear company he stopped suddenly and gazed earnestly at the rather embarrassed warrior. Why, you surely have made a mistake" exclaimed the adjutant, in- dignantly; why, you have pitched on the best man in the battalion. He has been with us for more than 20 years, and he is our pattern soldier. His arms are a mass of good conduct badges, and he is the example of all that is best in the life of a soldier. You surely do not know him?" "No," replied the detec- tive, "I do not-but 1 know all the others"

THE ITALIAN PEOPLE.

A View of Their Present Condition and
 Prospects for the Future.
 What are the prospects of the people? That depends in the present case large ly upon the people themselves. A peo- pie that are not united will never bear taxation patiently, because a disunited people cannot be commercially pros porous, and, therefore, cannot afford to pay the taxes. The difference between north and south Italy, or between Pied mont and Sicily, are not, indeed, like those between Ireland and England, largely religious, but they are certain ly radical, and the gulf between the easygoing, but passionate, children of the two Sicilies and the hardy noun taineer and stalwart cultivator of the Piedmont plains is almost as wide as the chasm between the Teuton and the Celt. Victor Emanuel's favorite unifer of Italy was the army, but, says the Fortnightly Review, it has turned in the hands of his successor into disin- tegrator. It was all very we'll to move the army up and down Italy when the army was symbol of common libera- tion from which so much was expected; but now the tyrants are gone there is no longer halo of romance about the army, nothing but army bills. The tyrant now is the tax collector.
 Undoubtedly the people have griev- ance. The taxes have been not only cruelty but unjustly exacted. The col lector has entered Sicilian cottages, backed by the police, and, seeing the pot-a-feu smoking, argued that those who could afford to eat could afford to pay supplement or excess tax, and if it turned out there was no money, the officers Of the law have been known to seize the dinner and throw it out the window, under the noses of the poor peasant and his hungry family. There was no redress for the subjects of Hum bert any more than for those of Bomba.
