HOW THE PAPERS MADE.
(Richard u SteeleN

Orchard F. Steele)
y youth from the hurly-burly street
Jams himself in passenger lift;
And they shoot him stories high, TO sneet
Another, who bendeth DER a drift
OF copy. Who smokes and softly swears
As some ones poem he idly tears,
or chuckles with mirth sardonic;
He calls to Barrett and Jones and Flynn,
Brown and the one who has just come in,
And in language terse and laconic,
Assigns them all
To city hall.
State house. central. game or bout.
Sermon, horse race. boat race club,
Lecture, banquet ball or rout.
Write the news and not ''fiub-dub,"
He adds at parting. So on his run
Goes each reporter undismayed.
The chase for copy has now begun,
And that's the way the paper made.
over n desk. in another nook.
Pallid peSsimist pushes u pen.
Solemn as POe's lugubrious rock.
He writes leader on Public Men"
The telegraph chopper pastes and ships,
Reading one line TO ten he skips,
With pipe in red eruption
And steadily up the copy goes
To the type machines, in stately rows
\ hot screed on Corruption"
A song of cheer,
A puff of beer.
Bit OF scandal il high life.
Interview with Gottherocks,
Story of devoted wife,
Paragraph on Jerry's socks
The mills go grinding. The makeup
comes.
Growing because he learned the trade;
But he sorts the slugs with nimble
thumbs,
And that's the way the papers made.
a rush and roar is heard below,
Where the hurried presses clang and
clash
Throwing off twenty thousand or so
Each hour they run, while the newsies
dash
Adown the street with something to sell
That's advertised best by a newsies yell
Paper, sir? Latest edition =
And pat, pat, PAT. fall the folded sheets
Ready for sale on the crowded streets,
And each with 4 special mission,
Away they go,
Like flakes o. snow,
To meet in the throbbing crowd;
Eager each 10 scan the news,
Toiler grim or magnate proud,
on q. level all peTuse
Politics, crime, society stuff
Fact and folly and p3squinade
! While the presses struggle to print enough
And that's the way the papers made.

BAD BLOOD IN IDAHO.

Idaho legislators have another way
of cutting up. Instead Of circulating
ISLANDERS and stabbing each other in
the back. they go about it in the old
fashioned way face to face with dag
gers drawn.
In such an encounter at Boise yester-
day Representative Philetus Averett
stabbed his colleague. Alma c. Hess.
in the side. Hess knocked Averett
down. which did not disturb the pro-
ceedings in the least until it was dis
covered that blood was flowing and
that Hess was cut.
This, being out OF the regular order,
caused some confusion, and it was
some time before the regular order
could he resumed.
Legislators in several states, Utah
included, are injured and disturbed
more by the meddlesome interference
of hired mischief-makers than by all
the lobbyists that ever cursed the
legislative ante-rooms.

NO SENSE OF PROPERTY.

This is all wrong. While Chief Pratt
is out running errands for Mr.. Lannan
and incidentally legislating in the
third house." the city hall is burglar
lied.
Nothing Of value is taken, for there
isn't much of value left there, except
a life tenure CT office and the chief car
ries that about with him.
The report shows that the city hall
burglar is a brute. OF such material
are DULLES made who rob and territy
defenseIess women and decrepit old
T.leE.
Besides, he has no manners. The first
principles of propriety are wanting in
his conduct. His lack of professional
courtesy, his brazen attempt to carry
of policeman's overshoes without the
aid OF either derrick or dray, indicates
that he is an eX-kleDtomaniac, looking
,or a bigger joo.
Men who steal things for which they
have no conceivable use. and for which
there is no ready market. show symp-
toms of diseased morals. II those over
shoes We're near the seaboard, an eXpia-
nation of the crime might be OWNED,
but there are no large vessels used on
the lake at all.
Thicves should discriminate. Do they
not know that the person and property
OF a policeman, even If he does rank
below the chief, must be held sacred
It is a wonder thief so reckless could
ever be caught Yet he is in Jail. but
not for this ofense. How does it hap
pen? Did he break into the jail, too?
he is a crack-a jack. The city council
ought to create a new Office for him.
He has ability to conspire, if needs be.
lie should be made ''Deep-hole bearer
to the chief" with a little life tenure
Of his own-boy's size.

a lifetime continuance in Office He
and his defender count upon the bitter
feeling they have studiously and ma
liciously engendered among members
of the legislature to aid them in de-
feating any measure of relief for Salt
Lake City. They count upon the pro-
traction of the senatorial contest as a
preventative of any disturbance of the
peep-hole chief.
These are some of the well-known
motives Of the conspirators. And there
are others not so generally known.
But the legislature should not allow
personal feelings or preferences in the
senatorial matter to distract their at
tention from the struggles of Salt Lake
City to free itself from this old man
Of the sea with his patent incubator OF
lawsuits strapped to his back like the
furniture of an italian organ grinder.

SENATORS ELECTED.

Unless the election Of a senator can
be prevented altogether by dilatory tao
tics in the investigation or by flibus-
tering in the joint session, Utah will
be well represented in the national con-
gress at the next session.
OF the mir men who will constitute
the urpz house after March 4th,
eighty-fv. are already known.
in five sTates contests are pending.
There are deadlocks in California,
Utah, Delaware. Nebraska and Penn
sylvania- In all probability there viii
be elections in Two of these-Utah and
Nebraska. The others are represented
by so many members Of the lower house
that a failure to elect a senator is Of
no moment. In Utah or Nebraska it
would be a positive calamity for the
state.
Some of these senators succeed them
selves Others have been prominent in
politics for years. But it has been as
certained that in the coming senate
there viii be no less than twenty-five
men without any previous legislative
service whatever. Among those lately
selected, Clark OF Montana, Foster of
Washington. and Beverage of Indiana
have come direct from business or pro
fessional life without having held any
Offices.
One-fourth are men Of great wealth,
half are men Of business experience,
like Clark of Montana, and Shoup of
Idaho, but in all the list there isn't a
one whose proud distinction it is TO call
himself "a bad man"

LITTLE DROPS OF WATER.

The organ of the Rising Storm has

sion Of late in the zeal of its prosecu-
ton of a. W. McCune. Yesterday.
however, it printed a column and half
of rambling remarks, beginning with
snowstorm and ending up with a de-
NAL of the right of the young men of
Utah to speak for young Utah
So its latest storm is a snowstorm-
It's usual storm is windstorm.
After rolling up the artificial snow
and moulding it into a snowman, our
solemn contemporary proceeds to lee
ture the young men of the state for
daring to speak for young Utah" This
reminds US of the question asked by
correspondent the other day: Does
young Utah-as my friend, Judge Good
win, calls Pat Lannan-want such
things done?"
If the young men of this state are not
entitled TO speak for young Utah"
they may see by this query who AFRO
gates to himself that right.
With much ostentation you express
a desire to repudiate the Tribune as an
oracle of young Utah. says that or
gan. expostulating with the young
men Of the state. How unreasonable
of the young men to repudiate the or
acle which has said TO the world:
1. That the dominant people of Utah
are pledge breakers.
2. That the majority Of the people
nominate and elect a man to office
solely because he is persistent and
defiant lawbreaker.
3. That plural marriages are being
contracted in the dominant church in
open violation Of the law.
4. That the elders of that church are
solemniziRg such marriages by the hun
dreds.
5. That the laws of the state cannot
be enforced, whereas it appeals cases
before they are ever tried.
6. That the leaders of the dominant
church are whipping the people into a
disobedience OF the law.
Z. That the legislature Of the state is
corrupt, ignorant, incompetent to make
laws. and only fit to shake dice for a
senator.
How dare the young men of the
state "repudiate the Tribune as an or
acle of young Utah?"
Its plaintive wall and pathetic APP
peals to them to endorse its libellous at
tacks upon the people as a whole and
upon those individuals whom it dis
likes. the mOck-solennity with which
it claims to malign the people for the
peoples good. and its crocodile tears
over the disgrace it says the leaders of
the church have brought upon the
church, make a picture Of grief that
the old masters never could have
thrown upon the canvas.
Boiled down, its snOwstorn article
is reduced to single drop of very
muddy water, which might pass for a
tear; and its rambling remarks, con-
densed. amount to this: What right
have the young men Of Titan 10 speak
for young Utah? Let them hold thei1
/ tongues while the oracle assails the
people in their name?"

DOES ITSELF PROUD.

The Tribune imagines itself an ogre.
The terrible ogre of the Tribune" it
excIaims proudly. What cOnceit! While
it has the features Of an ogre it lacks
the size 1t has the appetites without
the power to crafty them. It has the
n1aIevoIence, but the ability to do evil
and wreak revenge is departing from
it. OF all its instruments of spitework
only the police department remains. It
is not nearly so terrible as il fatters
itself that it is. 1t is shrivel'ng up
and doesn't seem to realize it. It may
be the mummy of a monster dried in

The Commercial Advertiser, an ad-
ministration organ, makes this admis-
sion: 1T is not the Hull bill that is
dreaded by members Of congress de-
voted to the highest interests of the
army and sensitive to public opinion,
so much as the administration of it,
should it become a law. The increase
made by the bill, both in officers and
men, is needful and the reorganiza-
ton of staff and partial amalgamation
with the line it neglects, could be made
in later and more deliberate legislation.
Probably vague dread that the new
staff and line officers authorized will
be chosen in such a way as TO excite
public censure and bring odium on
congressman as authors of the law is
the chief motive of opposition to the
Hull bill that is not partisan or selfish.
The president should be able to find a
way to remove this fear. He is per-
sonaIly trusted by members of con-
gress, and he viii be able TO give more
time to selection Of new officers now
than he could last April. He should

y very large audience-and one that
had quite the aspect of an audience at
the Salt Lake theatre on festive occa-
sions-was assembled at the Grand last
night.
''Boccaccio" was given by the Grau
company in a style which was strictly
up-to- date-startlingly uD-to-date at
timeS-but none the less pleasing. Some
clever sDecialties and a cake walk, for
instance, seem TO be appropriate in any
performance nowadays. At any rate,
l always have feeling, when the cake
walk is left out, that some one in the
audience is going TO rise up and demand
it. 1t sort of makes one teel that he
gets his moneys worth.
"Boccaccio," on its merits as an
opera, is one of the most tuneful of the
light operas. and all of the prominent
members were appreciated and encored
last ni-ht.
OF the company, some of the
members are the same as were here
last year-of these Mr.. Fetch and Miss
Meyers in burlesque parts are great ia
vorites They introduce a speciality into
the second act which is one of the hits
of the performance.
Miss Adele Harrington makes a
splendid Boccaccio in appearance. The
hest singer in the opera given last night
was Miss Darlington, who has a very
sweet and well-controlled voice. The
tenor, Mr.. Harry Davies, looks and
sings well-also acts-which is some
what unlooked-for in a tenor. Mr..
Fetch, with the other two comedians,
Broderick and Young, introduce hits of
all kinds-some of them local-and
make merry throughout the perform
aGce.
The chorus is very good, and an en-
larsed orchestra renders excellent ser
vice.
"Boccaccio" will be repeated tonight
and tomorrow afternoon.
