Editor Taylor, Of the Broad-Ax, is
of the paper are a number of good
things. Take the following for in
stance, which ailude to members of
the negro contingent of the Republican
party:
We hope that the next postmaster
OF our beautiful city wild be member
Of our race ard we are therefore in
favor of the Hon. P. c. Howell, for we
believe that Mr. Howell is thoroughly
qualified to serve the people of this
city in that capacity
Now that Mr.. Mark McHanna has
won with both hands down, we hope
that Senator Arthur Brown will appoint
Judge r. b. Johnson attorney general
OF the United States.
Editor Taylor. however, does nor stop

printed in The Herald some days ago.

ne was doing some work for candi-
dates, so he accounts for IL in the fol-
lowing manner
On Saturday. October 81 1885, one of the
Democratic candidates gave the editor
or this paper a check for the sum OF $40,
and at the same time he requested that
we should expend the money for him in
q legitimate way on the day of election.
We assured the gentleman that we would
render strict account for the money
thus intrusted to our care. And we paid
II out in the following sums to the gem
tlemen who worked around the polls on
the Sd day of November:
McDolald - %
Andrew Towels 30
Dennis Ford a
CHARLES Hill Observation-Disclosures. 90
W n. Silver Observation-Disclosures. co
Charles Smith and Henry Brown
lWmteS) $50 each. 90
These TWO gentlemen worked all day
at the corner Of Seventh and South West
Temple streets, on Monday. November ?.
AT u O'Clock, noon, we spent 81 for cigars
With John Shea, bartender, and on Mon
day night, after we had heard the Hon.
Warren Foster, and other speakers, eX-
pound the PopuliSt doctrine. we and sew
eral white gentlemen were compelled to
repair TO NJ. e. AlulVey'S place, 213 South
Main street, and to partake of some
CT Mulvey's soda water in order to coun-
terect the bad effect of Congressman
Fosters harangue. And after the bar
tender had served us with soda water
we requested him to put it on the ice
but he would not have it that way, and
the result was that before we could take
cur departure We had to fork over 81
for the soda water. And on Tuesday
noon we paid 10 cents for lunch, 10
cents for street car fare and the remain
der of the SIC which was 70 cents, we
bowed in while spludging around the
town. We hope that this simple state
ment of how we spent the $50 viii be en-
tlrely satisfactory to the Hon. John Il.
Simpson, the president of the National
Bank of the Republic, and owner of the
Harmon block
The following ''toothsome'' advice to
the Deseret News and the Tribune is ten
dered by that eminent journalist, John
G. Graham, in the Enquirer of recent
date:
There is not much satisfaction to intel
Egent people who wish the country's
welfare TO say: Il told you so, when
misfortune oyertakes men after being
bad conduct. However, we do want to
impress on the people, and especially the
News and Tribune, that if those two
papers had exercised ordinary political
Judgment the difficulties now on us, and
others threatened, which are much worse,
would have been avoided. The anxiety
manifested to have Bryan elected is the
cause, and now there seems to be a pros
pect of merry go-round with those two
papers. The News is right on the ques-
ton of the church having a right to
defend itself, but it was wrong in its
efforts to get the church in a position TO
have to defend itself. After all the fuss
made heretofore by the Democratic party
in regard to church and state. the church
organ ought to nave learned that that
party is nc more reliable in politics than
1t is in church matters. And whatever
comes of this renewed outbreak, we trust
that those two papers. will learn in time
to let Democrats and Democratic doc
trine alone.
