are the members TO tnelr respective
abodes. Johnson will now plough the
ground of Uintah county and softly
murnur under his breath at the off
horse for perSiSting in getting out OF
the furrow; Wright will return TO
Richfield and sell soap and sugar and
other stuff: Smoot will give his atten-
ton to the roller mills at Provo; Evans
will return TO his pursuits at Lehi;
Robinson will roam unmolested among
the hills of Willard. The president will
sell a few thousand head of cattle
which he has been feeding or rather
which the hired men have been feed
ing, at his ranch in Rich county. VIII
Nebeker will resume his work of Sc
curing the election to the captaincy of
the Tooele military company; Hamer
and Shurtliff will go back TO their
peaceful, quiet Ogden; Snow will
cross the deserts of the south and tell
the people of st. George all about it
and the Salt Lake delegation will dis
perse itself as usual.
No more the merry click, click of
Committee Clerk Johnson's typewriter
will be heard in the land; no more will
he. take the perpetual dictation of Mon
sen, in writing the interminable Mr..
PTeSident:-Your committee on en-
grcssment and enrolment, etc. the
patter of the lily-white fingers of Miss
Halgren on the keys of her Remington
will hereafter be heard in the Junction
City. Jardine, McQuarrie, Poulter.
Evans, Hansen, Jackson, will distri-
butte themselves over the land, and
Miss White-well, she will wait until
that $500 has been expended in road
Improvements in Beaver county and
will then go home.
The associations formed during the
session have been most pleasant and
while every one was glad to hear
Evans move to adjourn sine die, still
there was a pang at parting. Even
Ferguson, the messenger, felt it, and
as he shook hands with every one he
was sad. Chaplain Pratt, too, disliked
to leave, although the folks at home
wanted him bad and he was glad to
get away. But it's over. Perhaps
never again this side of the river of
death will the same persons assemble
in any capacity. Until the president of
the universe shall call the grand SEN
ate of heaven to order their lines will
be cast in different places. But the
memory of the friendship formed will
ever remain and be treasure of beau
ty in the hearts of ALL
This session has been long and ted
ious, especially in the last days, some
of the legislation INDUCED in did not
satisfy all, but there is one thought
that dill Cannot IninK alike
and that the motives which prompted
all were for the good of Utah
The important business of the SEN
ate, or at least the business of most in
terest, was transacted yesterday in
executive session, report of which ap-

A resolution by Evans, thanking the
railroad and telegraph companies for
their kindness to members, was passed.
STILL MORE THANKS.
Then Game remembered the press,
and offered a resolution thanking them
for their fair and elaborate reports.
Nebeker suggested that the thanks
extend also to the reports of executive
