A proposition is now before the legislature of that, stato to license bare knuckle prio lilttitj, but it in opposed by those who favor the deriving of revenue from tho gamblers' license. As the Carson Appeal puts it: ' A furo fame where a swindling brace box is used and the miserable cappers get 50 per cent of the stealings for roping in poor suckers, is considered a siillicicntly moral lay-ou- t to derive rev-enue from, la other words, the author-ities are rtiito willing to grant to grant a license to rob, but they draw thu line at lighting ami lotteries." - .

Under the Hautle of a Taxpayer He Starts Forth to Block tbe Council's Action ON THE OLD FORT BLOCK, He Insists That the "Paradise" ba ed as a Poor Man's Breath-ing Place. All yesterday the reporters kept an eye on the threshold of the district clerk's office. Not until night began to wrap its mantle about the Wasatch block did they begin to relax their vigilance. It had been stated through the "official organ" of the anti-Dee- ' creek contingent in tho city council that Alderman Pickard would "shy hit castor," and the .scribblers waited for tho procession. It was 0 o'clock when i Frank Holl'man, the arch counsellor for the "antis," came laboring up the tortuous stairway, and, with a big document clutched in his' fingers, passed on into 'the clerk's oflice and cast it on the desk. It was tho voice of processiou, and on its back bore 'the ) following title: V. Pickard, plaintiff, s.Salt Lake City, a municipal corporation, George M. Scott, mayor of said Salt Lako City, and James F. Jack, recorder of said city, defendants. The plaintiif brings this action in be-half of himself and of all other tax-payers residing in said city who may hereafter choose to unite with him in this action. Flartitiir alleges that at a regular meeting of city council held iu the council chamber at the city hall, tSalt Lake city, Utah territory, on tho 3d day of March, the following resolu tion was adopted by a vote of said city council, and by the mayor, the presid-ing officer thereof, declared to have t bceu passed, To the lloiinral'ln Mavnr ami City Council ot Salt Lake City.

Plaintiff alleges that the said defendant, Salt Lake City, has for a long time past been the owner in fee simple of block 4H, plat A, Salt Lake City survey, in Salt Lake City, Salt Lake county, Utah territory; the same comprising ten acres of land, and known as "Pioneer square;" that tho same has been dedicated and appro-priated for tho uses and purposes of a jiublic park for the benefit of the resi-dents ami tax payers of the defendant. Salt Lake City. That the resolution of the city council above referred to aud adopting the majority report of the committee above set forth was on the " petition of oue James IL Bacon, a copy of which said petition is hereby an-nexed, marked "exhibit A," and made a part of this complaint. That the saitl James H. Bacon and others, whom plaintiff alleges aro the employers of said James H. Bacon, are pretending to incorporate and are pre-tending to build tho railway referred to in the petition of James II. Bacon, "exhibit A," and iu tho report of the conimittae of said council purely on a speculative enterprise, and for their own private and individual gains. And that the action of tho mayor and city council is in direct violation of their trust nnd authority. That the council iu adopting the report of that commit-tee, as above set forth, are attempting to loan the property of the defendant corporation, Salt Lake City, to the said James II. Bacon, aud his iu their private enterprise, which is con-trary to au act of congress of the United States, approved July 30, 1M0, entitled ''An act to prohibit the passage of local or special laws in the territories of the United States, to limit territorial in-debtedness and for other purposes." That tho price offered by the said James II. Bacon and agreed to be ac-cepted by the vote of the council adopt-ing thu majority report of the commit-tee, is entirely inadequate. That the property is of far greater value thau the sum of $150,000, of the value of This plaintiff further alleges that the difference in the value of the property between $liiO,000, offered by the said Bacon, and the actual value of the property, would be a simple gift from the city to tho said Bacon of the difference between the price offered by said Bacon aud tbe actual value of the property. Plaintiff further alleges that the said property is of great value to the city for the uses and purposes of a public park, to which the same has beeu dedicated. That long since the city has been the owner of this particular block or park; it has been compelled by the sanction of all tho residents of the city and coun-cil and the mayor to purchase other property and dedicate the same for the use and purposes of parks: to sell or dispose of this particular park and premises described in tho complaint would necessitate tho city to purchase other and different tracts of land at other ami different and largely in-creased prices. Plaintiff alleges that the mayor, Georgo M. Scott, and the recorder, James F. Jack, are the only parties who can bind the city by executing t'-i-contract authorized by the mayor and saiil council to be executed to tho said James 11. Bacon, and that he is in-formed and believes that unless a res-training order of this court be granted against each of them as well as said Salt Lake City, - i d defendants will so execute said contract; that the same, if executed, would bo a cloud" upon tho title of the properly, aud bind the de-fendant.

What Charles Francis Adams Wrote About Jay Gould Not a Quarter of a Otmtury giuce. HISTORICAL POINTS OF THE U. P. Condensed Statements About the Presi-dents of the Line Gould the Deliv-erer of the Stockholders. "Jay Gould has undertaken a vast task when he intends making the Union Paeilic the greatest railroad system in the world." The man who uttered the sentence Is one of the most conservative men in on Senator Kdmunds, but obtained no satisfactory reply. Adams was more fortunate with otheV members of t lie judiciary committee, with whom he made the famous agreement to hand over to the government the available surplus of tho company aud discontinue dividends until after the meetitig of congress in December. This was con-siderable responsibility for a director to take upon himself, and President Dillon being ill aud unable to attend to the business Mr. Adams was elected president for the line in June, isst. "On taking charge of affair lie found tho road in rocky shape. Like Mr. Ames, tho new president shoved out his personal credit and together with other directors at the hub succeeded in sav-ing the line from the dreaded receiver. Within the six years .Mr. Adams was president of tho line ho worked faith-fully, but for some reason inol because lie is a collego graduate) his manage-ment was not a bowling success. Tho stockholders did not base to put on their glasses to see tho condition of the subject because they could "feel it in their bones." To them Gould appeared as their deliverer and Mr. Adams was wise enough to resign at the right time. Tho impression that Gould's return was brought about by his having acquired a controlling interest in the stock is wrong. "'Together with other former ollicials of thu line, to say nothing of the subor-dinates, Mr. Adams is enjoying a rest. The public will not be surprised if ho again draws a pen photograph of bis subject about twenty years ago. ( iould is starting out well and the stockhold-ers aro ironing the creases from their certificates wince Jay is at the head of the procession. He will make a suc-cess of it or discover tho nigger iu the woodpile." Salt Lake. If his name was mentioned the public would readily recognize he was connected with the Union Pacific for many years. Also he is iu such a position that he can tell a great deal about the road from its infancy and speak of things that thu average man knows nothing of. "More than twenty years ago," the speaker, "a widely read publication printed this pen picture of Mr. Gould. He was a broker, nnd a broker is almost by nature a gambler, perhaps the very last profession suitable for a railway manager, hi character he was strongly marked by his disposi-tion for silent intrigue. He preferred, as a rule, to operate on his own account, without 'admitting other persons into his confidence, and ho seemed never Why It In Hum.

The discharge men boldly as-sert that tho reduction is merely in-tended to impress the Nebraska legis-lature with tho fact that the road is in no condition to stand the maximum rate. bill. satisfied except when deceiving every one as to his intentions. There was a reminiscence of the spider in his nature. Ho spun huge webs in corners and in the dark, which were seldom strong enough to resist a serious .strain at the critical moment. It is scarcely neces-sary to say that ho had not a concep-tion of a moral principle. "lhe man who wrote the foregoing is Charles Francis Adams who, less than a year ago was president of the road under consideration. Ho did strike Gould a stinging blow, but tho wizard kept silent and avoided controversy-tiiiderslaudiu- g that ho would be at a disadvantage iu the arena of argument. As the Union Pacific has a history that is interesting and is understood by few a brief meution of tho men who were once presidents of tho lino might be timely. "General John A. Dix was tho first president of the company, salary $"H)U0 per annum. He was a good fellow aud took a siucere interest iu the enter-prise. This was manifest even after ho had been appointed minister to Franco in 1110. For two years he drew bis salary, and would have contiuued to do so had not a few Boston stockholders declared that General Dix was too far The Wj of thn World. Mr. Ed Opdyke, chief clerk in Gen-eral Superintendent Bancroft's office, will cease to occupy hisdesk after April 1st. This is in the course of human events when a new head occupies the chair. Mr. Opdyke is a business man of the first water, and he has hosts of friends who will regret his retirement. Mrs. Opdyke, who has been a valued stenographer in the same office, will accompauy her husband. Kallroad Notng, Jay Gould has summoned the rail-road presidents to another meeting to be held in a day or so. 'The wizard in-tends tying tho western roads in a stronger agreement, so it is said. Good for Major Wilkes. Ho is not saying much but is jolly over the fact that the Salt Lako, Hailey & Puget Sound road will be built. from homo to do justice to the bonds of the road. Thn result was that Oliver Ames, who had been doing the work while General Dix was abroad, was elected president. This action had its effect on the general, and he sadly said he would have remained al home had ho imagined such a fate awaited jiiin , Although unseated he did not turn his back on the road, but soon afterwards disposed of 500 shares of the 17.

"During Oliver Ames1 reign, that is the years he was the acinar executive head of the organization, li:i to 1S71, most of the work of construction was done and the line finished. Like lhe other Ames he was progressive, capa-ble and strictly business, and saved tho line from bankruptcy. While President Ames was iu tho chair the headquarters of the company were transferred from New York to Boston. This was caused by the Fisk raid aud wllile the scrap was on $;!00,000 or in bonds vanished and the guilty man has not yet been punished. "In tho Union Pacific Tom Scott of the Pennsylvania system thought he saw something he could tie to his kite. He had longed for a through line to the Paeilic ocean, and Mr. Ames handed him the reins in 1 ST1. Mr. Scott's ideas failed to materialize, and after one year's bossing the job, he wassucceeded by Horace F. Clark. He was president of the New York Central, and like his predecessor, wanted a Paeilic coast connection for the Yanderbilt system. Mr. Clark died while filling his second term In dune lNii.

He knew they had blocks of slock, and during the conference they agreed to fund tho floating debt and avoid a possibility of the road sporting 11 receiver. This action improved Gould's condition, and ho considerately took 1.000,000 of the bonds above the market figure. Mr. Ames having had all the glorv he desired as chief execu-tive of the line, it was quietly arranged to place the honors of tho presidency on Mr. Dillon. This was done at the annual election in 1871, and about a year later tho effect of Gould's advice in the management of tho line was wel-comed by the stockholders iu tho form of dividends. From 1S75 to April in 18S4 the stockholders received M,30,-00- 0 and the stock grew from fourteen to 131 in July, 18H1. President Gould-Dillo- n retired from the line in 1HS4, and the result was no dividends, the stock selling as low as twenty-eight- . "During the administration of Pres-ident Gould-Dillo- the company began to feel its oats and uiade noses at Uncle Sam and his agents. 'The U . P. People were then not over anxious to make their interest payments and had skir-mishes with tho government and con-gress and were as generally obstreper-ous as tho mule that 'forgot his father was a jackass.' Amid this turmoil the. wizard got tired and ho dreaded to dis-solve partnership with Uncle Sam.
