Contest Ended
The closing of the contest is the
practical elimination of Cats, and
all his kind we hope. If haply he
gets his name on the ticket he will
garner a few thousand votes; it is
likely that those fanatics who sup
ported him in the primary will vote
for him in the election if they have
an opportunity to do so. But none
save the fanatics viii, and we have
faith That there are rot enough OF

BUsRY,s MNsTRELs.

Minstrelsy, la circus style, de-
lighted a large audience Of Ogden
people last evening, the event being
the visit of j NJ. Busby's big min
strel show under canvas. The show
was given most liebral patronage
which it merited in every sense of
the word.
Mr.. Busby has assembled a big
company OF colored people who are
bubbling with minstrel songs and
music. The show carries its own
band and orchestra, In addition to a
large number of good singers and
good dancers. The big minstrel fore
part is of course the feature, but the
olio is program Of specialties
which are most entertaining While
many no doubt can not conceive OF a
staged production under canvas, they
have but to witness a performance
such as that given by the Busby
company to appreciate not only the
possibility, but the high grade sue
cess which has been attained by this
gentleman in his tented minstrel
show Ogden Morning Examiner.

pEcRYlNG INTERFERENCE,
WE INTERPRETED IN MEX
leo ExASPERATiNGLY.

The dealings of the Admins
tration with Mexico constitute
confused chapter OF blunders.
We have not helped Mexico. She
lies PROSTATE. impoverished,
famine-stricken, overwhelmed
with the woes and outrages OF
internecine strife. the helpless
victim of q condition of anarchy
which the course OF the Admin
istration only served to promote.
For ourselves, we have wit
messed the murder OF our citi-
gems and the destruction of their
property. We have made enc
mics. not friends. Instead Of
commanding respect and de-
serving good will by sincerity,
firmness, and consistency, we
provoked misrepresentation and
deep resentment. In the light
OF the conduct OF the Admin
istration no one could under
stand its professions. Decrying
interference, we interfered most
exasperatingly. We have not
even kept out Of actual con-
fict. and the soil OF MEXICO is
stained with the blood Of our
soldiers. We have resorted TO
physical invasion. only TO retire
without gaining the protested
object. It is a record which
cannot be examined without a
profound sense OF humiliation
From Mr.. Hughes speech OF
acceptance.
