Judge Goodwin was there also and assisted materially in making the time pass most pleasantly. Governor Thomas is a great friend to the newspaper men and never permits them to go to Salt Lake without doing them honor. The boys appreciate his kindness and will remember him. The meeting of the association was a most pleasant and successful one and the boys will always look back upon it with pleasant remembrances and as the real beginning of the Utah Press Association, which will soon make itself known, feared and respected and be one of the most potent and powerful organizations in Utah . or the West Success to the Utah PresB Association.

A few days ago the assistant post master of Port Chester, Pa-- , suspected the carriers of having stolen some oranges he had in the office, according to a local paper. So he bought another stock and asked a neighboring druggist to inject into them some drug that would make the thieves sick, but not injure them. The druggist injected water and then informed the carriers. They of course stole the oranges, and when the owner entered the office he found them all very sick. In a little while they were writhing on the floor. Then the joker thought the druggist hnd made a mistake and ran to him for a prescription. He prescribed brandy, and it took tfijorth to relieve them of their pain. Some of them got a little overcured by the medicine, or on the other side of a normal condition, but they enjoyed their superiors joke all the same. New York Tribune. Ha Would Stay. On Tuesday a rather singular ease was docketed and tried in Justice Farnsworths court. For some time past the Marshal hns been on the alert to prevent minors from visiting saloons, from and saloon keeppers disposing of liquors to said that minors. But it seems all efforts in this direction are futile as minors and saloon keepers will play into each others hands. From the report of the above case it appears that a certain minor who is a thorn in the flesh of the peace officer visited Huntingtons saloon and was promptly ordered out by the but Mr. Minor as promptly refused to go or to lie ejected by any one other than the Marshal. Whereupon the lodged complaint againBt said minor for trespass and frequenting a place of business where his presence, was forbidden.

The great number of the new employees on the Brooklyn City Railway who were taken to the Ridgewood avenue stables to night have deserted and joined the strikers and tonight there is not a single man in the stables who .ran operate the cars. The strikers succeeded in winning the men over this evening and are taking care of them for the night. Violence and bloodshed constitutes the record of the eighth day of the electrio street car operatives strike. Three militiamen are in hospitals with broken heads, two having suffered at the bauds of riotous men and women, while the third was the victim of hie own carelessness, having fallen out of a second story window. A score or more policemen are suffering from bullet wonda or contusions of the head and body, disabling them for the time being.

A car started from the Ridgewood Btation of the Brooklyn Heights Company a little after 5 oclock, and was assaulted with valleys of stones and bricks before it proceed od far. A private soldier was struck on the head with a stone and disabled. The officer in command ordered his men to Bhoot, and two volleys were fired toward the windows and housetops from which the missiles had beon mostly hurled. The soldiers aim was bad, however, rendered uncertain by the deuse fog. The policemen also did some shooting at this point, with what effect is as uncertain as in the case of the militiamen. It is asserted by the militia officers that they only ordered the velleya when the violence of the mob mide it necessary. On the same line a car started out an hour after and was beset by rioters at Gates and Stuyves-an- t avenues. Tha police escorting it essayed to drive off the rioters aud while doing so were fired upon from a house. Five policemen were wounded, one in the arm, another in the hand and three others received painful injuries by being struck with stones. . U. N. G.

DISASTROUS The following, taken from the editorial columns of the Eastern Utah Telegraph, proves the editor a man of observation Bud judgment, and shows that he is "dead onto the Journal's source of editorial inspiration : The Logan Journal feels called stuffing. upon to defend ballot-bo- x The logio of the premises taken sounds like the Salt Lake Herald, and we believe that sheet to be the most unreasonable and illogical sheet published iu tho Euglish language. Here is a sample from the Journal: If os Republicans declare there ie fraud in the ballot-boxof Utah let those boxes be opened. Why do Republicans insist on keeping that alleged fraud locked up? Democrats want a thorough investigation . Enough fraud has already beeu proven to cause the honest people of Utah to blush with shame. Republicans do not object to the ballots that were cast on election day being counted, but they do object to the counting of ballots that were never cost, and which two democratic judges and one Republican judge in each precinct have certified were not cast , Republicans will not only insist that the loaded boxes be kept locked up, bnt they demand that the democrat or democrats who tampered with those boxes be locked up os well as the boxes. es WHERE THEY PIFKER. The New York Evening Post, which does not over-praithe Republican party, draws this just ae comparison: Both democrats and Republicans have just been put to the test in the matterof surrendering a governorship to thn opposition ou a narrow majority, sud the Republicans inako the belter showing. In California the Republicans have promptly surrendered the governorship to the man who was elected, while in Tennessee the democrats are keeping out the man whom the people elocted on the pretense tlmt there were frauds which the legislature must investigate, and propose to have the democratic incumbent hold over pending an investigation. Commenting on this open admission, the Pioneer Presa tersely and vigoroasly expresses itself as follows: A EARTHQUAKE Persian City Utterly Destroyed. THE VICTIMS IUMBER TWELVE TH0USHX3. One Hundred aud Twenty Seven Shocks in Twenty Daye Fifty Thousand Chttle Killed in One Valley Shucks In -- Other Placet London, Jan. 23. The Times has a dispatch from Teherau, capital of Persia, stating tha town of Kuchan, in tha province of Khorasan, which was destroyed by an earthquake fourteen months ago, and which was subsequently rebuilt, was again destroyed by an earthquake shook on Thursday last. There was, as on the previous occasion, great loss of life. Oua hundred women who were in a bath house were crushed to death by the falling building. The weather was intensely cold, and this increased the sufferings of the survivors, whose houses were destroyed. The dispatch adds that fourteen distinct shocks wen felt at Meshed within three days. None of these shocks, however, were of sufficient strength to do any damage. Kuchan lies at the toot of the Shah Jahau Kuh, a mountain 11,000 feet in height. The town, which is about eight miles north west of Meshed, is 3800 feet above sea level. It is, or was. an important place, being on the route to Shirvan. The population prior to the earthquake of 1893, which destroyed every house in the place, was between 20,000 aud 25,000. The official report of tha disaster places tha number of persons killed at 12,000. Fifty thous and head of cattle perished in the of which valley at the head Kuchan is situated. From November 7th to 27th there were 127 distinct shocks. It was the first shock that destroyed the town. A Smooth Game. A stranger attempted to work a little game on a few of our mer- chants Thursday but did not meet with any success. He first tried it on Sam Don glass. He walked into the store, purchased a small article for twenty cents and thew down a twenty dollar gold piece. Sam, who waited on the sharper, gave him $10 in gold and the balance of the change, $9.80, iu silver. I have plenty of silver, said the stranger, wouldnt you ten dollars in as me Boon give just ten Sam told silver. in for gold him he didnt have the gold, but could give him a t n dollar bill for it. Tha stranger counted out 110 in silver and placed it in Sam's hand, who counted it over and then threw down the ten dollar bill to the stranger.

From the beginning, the democratic party, as a party, has been the party that lias quietly wii.kel at violatioua of the expressed will of the people, or Indiopenly encouraged them. vidual democrats deplore these things. But take the jiarty as a whole, and it is pretty sure, nine times out of ton, to take an unjust opportunity if tlmt is ofltml. The result of the ballot is less sacred to it than the temporary triumph of Because. The singular thing about it is leas the permanence of moral obliquity than the inability to realize that tins kind of thing does not pay in the end. For every illegal triumph that the democratic iarty has won, it has lost fourfold in the sacrifice of putilic confidence and nublic support.
