amendment to the amendment, strik-
ing out $1,000 and making it $1,000
Speaking to the question, he said he
had noticed that the gentlemen favor
ing the high salary had the day before
fought hardest to keep the chaplain S
compensation at the minimum. lie
thought the gentlemen were not so
much in favor of economy when it
came to the pay of frisnd.
Lewis, one of those who favored the
higher salary, resented the imputation.
1t was not that the clerk was friend
of his, but he knew something of the
duties of the Office and considered any
thing less than $2,100 too small.
Maughn favored the reduction. Neb-
eker of Salt Lake didn't know but an
error might be made but thought it
was as likely to be made one way as
the other and thought it best to err
on the side of economy. He was salts
fed his colleague, Lewis, could get as
much work in his own line of business
done for 200 as the clerk would have
to do and he could not see why the
state should pay more than an individ-
Ual. Taylor was satisfied to leave it at
$500
When Monson had offered the
amendment OF $1,000 he did SO because
he did not suppose lesser figure
would carry. He now favored the
$1,000 He thought $40 a month pretty
good pay and was satisfied there We're
lawyers in Salt Lake who didn't make
that much.
Nearly everybody took a hand in the
discussion, some favoring and others
opposing the amendment, which, when
finally put, was lost. Critchlow thought
an agreement ON the point could
not be reached during the sit
/ ting and to allow the bill to
pass in time to be signed and allow the
court to convene next Monday as was
desired, the judges being ready, much
! business pending, etc, he moved to
amend by striking out the salary and
| allow the section to provide for clerk
| whose salary Shall be hereafter fixed
by law. He thought that would obvi-
ate the difficulty, allow the court to get
/ to work and that the house could fix
! his compensation when it had more
/ time. CritchlOw had been chief among
those who urged speedy disposition of
! the bill, fact which brought doubt
/ to the minds of numerous colleagues as
to his sincerity, among them Condor,
1 who thought he heard in the amend
ment the soft voice of Jacob, while he
/ felt the hairy hand of Esau. He thought
/ the amendment a scheme to catch the
house in a better humor and get the
salary back to the original mark. The
amendment finally carried but not I'M
I til nearly every member on the floor
had vented his mind on the subject.
! Thus the veXed question was settled
and the remainder of the bill was con-
sidered with very little conflict of
1 opinion.

THE HOUSE.

At the opening of the house session
yesterday Condor of Weber introduced
a petition numerously signed by bust
ness men of Ogden praying for the re-
peal of the fire and police act. The
petition recites that it is the belief of
the petitioners that the law is both I'M
just and unpopular.
H. c. No. was introduced by Cush-
ing. The claim is in favor of Sheriff
Hardy and is for 1872 for taking 224
prisoners before the court of the Third
judicial district either as witnesses or
for examination into the cause of ar
rest, $3 each being charged

CURTIS VOTED DOWN.

Curtis ire was reused when the
reading came to section II. He moved
to scale down the fees to be charged
by the court. but his Republican
friends voted him down. The gentle
man from Weber got very hot and
spoke right out in meetin'." He said
he was glad to find where he was at.
1t was quite apparent that the major
ity of the house was only in favor of
economy when it could be effected by
discriminating against laboring people
and taxpayers.
When the committee arose it reported
recommending the passage of the bill
as amended. The rules were suspended,
the bill read the third time and placed
upon final passage. Before the vote
could be taken Stevens made UP his
mind to amend it further and the
speaker held the amendment was in
order The bill provided that 20 per
cent of the fees of the court be placed
to the credit of the state library fund.
Stevens thought this was contrary to
a provision of the constitution which
directs that all fees shall be paid to
the proper treasury. He could not be
made to see that by merely placing the
money to the credit of the library fund
would not divert it from the treasury
and enough of the mem bers were with
him to carry the amendment.

should reduce Salaries.

The Board Of Education Of
Arbuckle district should at once
begin toreduce salaries of teachers,
as they are growing rich too fast.
One teacher, who is Democrat,
gave as a reason for voting against
Bryan, that he was afraid of the
income tax, as it would hurt him
if it became law. Either reduce
salaries, or discharge that teacher,
and give some poor young lady a
chance to earn living. A man
with that much wealth does not
need to teach school, nor ought to
be allowed to.

Lost His Own Farm.

We we're told pretty good story
on prominent and prosperous
farmer, living near Flat Rock, last
Saturday. It is said he got up
quite early in the morning to feed
his stock before breakfast. and one
of his steers being missing he con
Guided to hunt the animal up. In
doing SO he had gone to part of
his farm he seldom visited, and
there became confused, and wan
dered about hopelessly, not know
ing where he was. About twelve
O'clock the pangs of hunger coming
on him, no began to call for help,
when one of his neighbors went to
him, and asked what he was doing
SO far from home, over in the
swamp lands. He replied that he
had been out since day light, and
had lost his bearings. He was put
on the right road, and started for
home, where his anxious family
welcomed his return. They had
been searching for him everywhere
and had the whole neighborhood
excited.

Died From His Wounds.

John Ed. Appleton, while drunk,
fell from his horse at Ashly, Mo.
His companions tied him to his
horse and took him to his home,
at Antioch, Mo. When arrived
there it was found that he was
dying, whether from the wounds
he received by the fall, or from
being strapped cross-wise to his
horse. The deceased was known
to many of our people, and was a
son of John Appleton. He leaves
a wife and one child to mourn his
untimely end. The above facts
are CLEANED from the Bowling
Green (Mo.) Times.

A Mysterious NTurder.

The Kanawha Gazette of Satur-
day evening, contains the following
horrible story:
"Last night about half past sew
en- o'clock, when Carl Eggleston, a
coal miner who works at the
Campbells Greek mines, returned
home from his days labors, about
two miles from his house he found
his wife lying dead on the floor
with bullet hole through her
body. Their only child, an infant
ten months old, was playing on her
bosom.
"The death of Mrs. Eggleston is
so far surrounded with the deepest
mystery and the neighbors and
civil authorities are exerting every
possible effort to solve it,"

plays that they think will please
our public; and Mr.. Eagle writes
that oneo of them--a comedy-has a
laugh in almost every line and is
sure to make the biggest hit of any
thing they have ever given us. 1t
is entitled "The Happy Pair" and
if the judgment of those who have
seen it go for anything it is
screamingly funny. Another is a
serious play, after the style of
"Drifted Apart" which was the
hit of last Summers performance.
But whatever they give us we are
sure will be of the best, and be
done in an excellent manner.

If there is ever n time when n
man has an opportunity to test the
confidence and esteem of his
friends, it is when he has bond to
give. 1t is then, moro than any
other time, that he fully appre-
ciates the good will and kindly ser
vices of those who exemplify their
professions of friendship. 1t is
then, too, more than any other
time, that he sees the utter hypoc-
risy some men practice in the
name of friendship. 1t is no
trouble to find friends when no one
needs the service of friends and
when there is no sacrifices to
make. He is true friend who
stands by you in the hour when the
services of a friend are needed.
The much deridod part of town,
known commonly as"Goose Town."
seems to be forging right to the
front. Several new and substan-

that quarter recently, and many of
the older buildings have been i'm
proved. The Machine Shops and
Foundry and the Dry Docks are
all located in that pert of the town,
and recently Mr.. Carlisle Whaley
has opened up there very hand
some grocery store, which we are
glad to say is being appreciated
and we'll patronized. This part
of the town, will in short while
be the busiest portion of our town,
for the completion of Lock IL will
add greatly to its prosperity.
Freight traffic on the O. r. r.
is much improved since last sum
mer when there was scarcely any

the regular trains running and to
make slight increase in the train
force necessary.
