Couldnt he get a commission, or is he counting on getting a plum out of the Democratic pie in Salt Lake county this fall? Or is he detailed to help Colonel Burton and Colonel Clayton stay at I home? OTEALIXG an expression from the Broadax, the Tribune says : Had it been the character of the little buzzing Bee that was in the grave, etc. Now the Tribune has, in lieu of a character, au odor which has clung to it from birth to dotage. You may buy or subsidize the Trib. if you will, but the scent of the slaughter pen clings to it still. VULNERABLE spot has been found on the rhy nocerous hide of the Tribune. It unbends from its absurd pose of asinine gravity to sass The Bee. There is nothing the Tribune appears to be more ashamed of, not even its own rotten record, than its financial dependency on Smooth bore. the man it A x nick-name- d LAKE administration organ, the Deseret News, has been rebuking carping critics, who are dissatisfied with the way the war is being conducted. But recent events have proved too much, even for the news, and Tuesday evening it published a long dispatch from Washington, in which incompetence and instability were exposed in almost every line and the News had over it these sugThis is disgraceful; gestive headlines: fleet of transports has not sailed; gross It also contained an editorial condemning the manner in which things were being done. Has the News joined the ranks of carpiug critics or has it, like the Tribune, got all it wants from the administration for the present? rJ'TIAT SALT h e. were all different; ho horo is a clmneo some tailor to get rid of remnants at a bargain.

Kximhihon. n FIRST view of the exposi- tion ground car not a was from the ver) effective view, larause of the high loard fence surrounding the grounds. But as soon as we have really entered the grounds; standing at the west end by the Government building, wo can sympathize with the man who thought heaven could not be more beautiful. Before us the lagoon, all one rippling mass of blue green water, with a large fountain at our end, stretches out towariis the east. On the right lies tbcJArt building, Liberal Art and Mines aud Mining buildings. Between all the main buildings are collonades, a new and distinctive feature of the Trans-Mississipp- i Expo- They are more than useful as well as beautiful and the flowers which bloom in profusion and the green grass add yet more beauties to the already wonderful whole. On our left lies the Agricultural building, one of the most beautiful and well arranged of all, the Electrical and Mechanical building, the Boys and Girls buildiug aud two or three more equally lovely. All this dazzling white and the lagoon with dongolas drifting lazily, sleepily on its glassy surface, present a picture never to be forgotten. A short dislancj to the left, down a street lined on both sides with eating houses and small side shows, forcible reality is thrust upon one. The sounds of drums, fifes, tin pans, shouting voices, all things which tend to enliven the midway, greed the ears. The midway, although the most noisy aud least beautiful, is to the greater part of the people the most attractive feature. In it are the German, Chinese aud Japanese villages, numberless the giant 1 see snv an every attraction one could imagine. Branching off from the main street are the Streets of and the Streets of Cairo. The Marine baud which plays here at present is one of the finest bands in the world. Au instance displaying the patriotism and reverence of the people for our county, was shown a short time ago. The Marine band played America and with one accord the people rose to their feet and mens hats were removed while utter silence reigned. At the close of the music, when the audience was seated again, the band rose to their feet and played our national hymn as they were standing. Of course, the people rose again and it was a picture that would bring tears to the eyes of any loyal, patriotic American.
