Chinese Etiquette.

Strangers n Getting in China may
freely ask one another their names,
provinces and their business pros
pects 1t is always con dered a COM
pliment to an old Chinaman to ask
him his age, but the middle aged do
not as rule care for the question,
and their ans\ ers can rarely be de-
pended upon. 1t is also good form in
China to ask the numt er and sex OF
a mans children, also If his father
and mother are still living. His wife,
however, must not be mentioned,
even in the most indirect manner.
Friends meeting, either or both in Sc
dan chairs, stop their bearers at once
and get out with all possible expedi-
ton. The same rule applies to &C
quaintances meeting on horseback.

Brother Wishard, I would suggest
that you have few thousand copies
of the Westminster catechism print
ed and distributed in Utah and let the
people know about the horrible dam
nable dogma that your school is
named after and the religious founda-
ton upon which it will stand. Brother
Wishard, do not believe in attacking
any religious denomination, except in
defense of our homes or schools and
our state When you will go east and
beg in a civilized way and tell the peo-
pie that you want money to build a
school to make better children, better
citizens and better state and city, to
create harmony, love and good will
towards all denominations you will
receive the support of all. But just
as long as you throw mud at the Con-
gregational, the Episcopal, the Cath
ole, the Mormon and the public
schools of this state by stating they
are disloyal you will be condemned by
all liberty loving people.
l will try and give you story,
founded on facts, about how religious
revivalists terrorized children a few
years ago in this country.

ernor Heber M. Wells and others gave
very interesting addresses. The
armory was pleasingly decorated and
no hotsile attack was made by General
Geoghegan. The arrangements for
the affair, however, were faulty in the
extreme or it might be more correct
to say the absence of arrangements.
There were double the number OF
speakers on the programme which
there ought to have been, unless the
intention was to have performance
on the Chinese plan, lasting for sew
eral days. Furthermore If Honest

LINCOLN CELEBRATION.

The Lincoln anniversary celebra-
ton held in the Armory on Monday
evening was in the true sense a sue
cess. By the true sense we mean that
those who attended, and the number
was very large, showed by their gen.
eral demeanor, under somewhat unfa-
vorable conditions, that they came
there because that, away down in
their hearts they felt, real unsimu-
lated generation and admiration for
the man who did so much for not
only America and Americans, but for
the human race; that he had the pa
triotism, the true patriotism, which
means not only love for one particular
corner of the earth and its people. but
love for all the earth and every living
thing thereon. There was no bun
combe about Lincoln. To do honor to
the memory of this man, this giant
among giants, the people assembled,
by their demeanor, showed that free
American institutions are dear to their
hearts, that they are true blue patri-
otto Americans and that they realize
the debt of gratitude which this ma
ton in particular and the world in
general owes to Lincoln. There
was no sound of discord from
start to finish. The speeches were
good, particularly that of Judge e.
s. Zane, who gave very interest
ing personal "Reminiscences of Lin
coin, and is one of the few now
living who had the privilege of per-
sonal acquaintance with the great lib
orator. Judge Zane studied law under
Mr. Lincoln and became the junior
partner in the law firm of Lincoln,

DON BELIEVE
SENATE WILL
CHANGE BILL

Washington March Ex-senator Dolliver
and Attorney General Moody yesterday
conferred regarding lagal points raised in
the senate discussion Of the railroad rate
bill
The senator would not specify the ques-
tions considered, but at the close OF the
conference expressed the opinion that the
friends OF the house rate bill need have
no fear that the senate will adopt an
amendment which will add TO the rights
the railroads now have in the courts.
He does not believe that the PROPOSE
ton suggested by Senator Bailey. limit
ing the power Of the courts OF lesser i'm
portance Than the supreme court, will
be acceptable TO the senate.
He says the friends OF the bill consider
ed that question and abandoned It. for
the reason that it did not appear TO be
constitutional
Senator Dolliver did not think that the
plan proposed by Senator Spooner, pro-
viding for the impounding OF the differ
ence between the commissions rate and
the railroads rate would be feasible.
The attitude OF Senator Bailey was dis
cussed briefly by Senator Dolliver. He
said that many persons seemed 10 think
that az proved that friends of the dill were
divided.
He took the position that Senator
Bailey's views were more stringent than
those OF other friends OF the bill and did
not indicate that Senator Bailey or other
democrats for whom he speaks were IN
any way unfriendly TO the pending meas
ure.
