Does it not occur to tlio board that Mr. Minims might pnter into it scheme with Dennis to indemnify the latter for the loss of thn ?o()(), and tender him several hundred dollar besides, in order to pet as tl.o mist, highest bidder, the work himself? The whole proceeding is so extraordi-nary tiiat we invite the board of public works to explain it. We have no idea that Drliol design to carry out Ilia contract. Unless the board intends lo give him and Mouitis a chance to com-bine, to pool their issues as it were, it will have lo readvertise for bills.

IOC ' ruling of the supremo court of the United States in tho enso of Mi nn against the State of Illinois, in which it was held that the action of the legisla-ture as to what constituted a reasonable charge was conclusive. In other words, when tho legislature determined that a railway company could only charge 3 cents a mile, the court could not into the reasonableness of the charge. It was contended on the trial that the supremo court of tho United Stales had receded from its position in tho Ml nn case in declaring illegal tho order of the Hallway and Warehouse Commission of Minnesota reducing the charges for carrying milk from U cents to L'J cents per gallon. The supremo court of Michigan, in sustaining the law of that suite ti.iing maximum rates, denied that the supreme court of the United States had overruled its decision in tha Mi:nn' case, tho ruling in the Minnesota case being merely to the effect that the legis-lature could not delegate to a commis-sion tho right to lix railway charges without allowing to the railway com-pany a judicial investigation as to tho reasonableness of such charges. If, however, the legislature should exer-cise that power itself, no court could call its authority in question. Tho Michigan legislature having tixed the charges, the law was held valid and binding. 'I he case will no doubt be taken to the supremo court of the United States. Under the law as now Interpreted it would be within the power of a legislature to bankrupt tho railways of the state and leave them without any remedy in the courts. Tuk supreme court of Michigan ro- - cently rendered a decision sustaining the right of the legislature to lix the i maximum rates for the carriage of freight and passengers. In 18!) a law j was passed limiting passenger fares on j certain roads to 2 cents a mile, and a passenger who tendered that amou-i- t to j a ticket agent in payment of a fare and j was refused brought an action for dam- - ages against the company.

We say, well done, good and faithful servants well done for .Salt Lake. It was a test vote between the progressits and mcssbacks, between the positive and negative men. How anxious tho obstructionists were to assure tho peo-ple that they wero filled with good in-tentions. They felt thn pressure of public opinion and the need of giv-ing way to it if only in words. Hut it is said tho path to per-dition is paved with good intentions nnd this city does not earn to subsist on them any longer. A new era is dawn-ing and the gleam of the aurora pene-trated into tho council chamber last night. Tub Times cares nothing for any in-dividual or individuals in this matter. It does care, however, for tho pros-perity of the city, and it believes this to be subserved in a substantial way by the action of tho council. Tim Timks weighed the objections raised to Mr. IMI efl 3 jiioiommuii III mo balance and it found them wanting in justice and force. Salt Lake City uirans to go ahead if railroads and mines can aid in that ob-ject and this is the siguilicance of the 10 to 4 voto as recorded. And now it is for Mr. Bacon to jus-tify tha conlidenco the people have placed in him.

The fate of Captain Francis Norton, who sailed away from New London eighty-si- x days ago, and has never since been heard of, furnishes a sad commentary on the littleness of niau and the insignilicaneo of his plans ud inventions, The captain had devised a unsinkablo lifeboat." His invention had stood what were sup-posed to bo tho severest tests, and been approved by the national board of in-spection and survey on behalf of the government.

Philadelphia Times, We had almost forgotton that our old acquaintance, Osman, Digma, was liv-ing. And now ho turns np again only to be soundly thrashed. Ho endeavor-ed to stop the march of the khedive's troops from iSuakin to Berber. He didn't succeed to any extent Mobilo Register. Osmau Digma makes a sorry figure in keeping up the heavy end of fanatic-ism and the slave trade in Africa. It is about time for him and his Arabic horde to bo driven out of the Soudan, iilood and treasuro enough have been wasted over these wily barbarians. Haltimore Herald. The defeat of Osman Digma's forces at Tokar is the most important success gained by thn Egyptians in that neigh-borhood since put Snakim itself under siege. If tho Egyptian ollicials now deal discreetly 'with the warlike and predatory tribes that Osmau has been able to raliy to his support they may hope to put an end to much of the insecurity and robbery that have pre-vailed in tho coast regions of the eas-tern Soudan- .- New l ork Times. Osman Digma. who has been absent from the dispatches a long time, turns up again in a big battle at Tokar in which his torces wero defeated. Osman has had an eventful career in a telegra-phic sense has disappeared once or twice and been killed several times but ho is all right atrain and will now perhaps be herd of for somu weeks and in many dillerenl sorts of adventures.

Then tho two medals would circulate together and neither drive tho other out, either to bo hoarded or exported. It has been remarked before that whenever tho women of this country hall want the right of suffrage they will get it. The protest filed by the women of Chicago against the bill ex-tending the municipal suffrage to them nd denouncing as false and pernicious all attempts to secure legislation in that direction, shows anew that at present, at least, they do not hanker for it. A Modern Ht. Anthony. Chicago Herald. Rev. Mr. Milligan, of Pennsylvania, must be a modern St. Anthony, only more so. He was preaching a trial sermon at Coldenham, in Orange coun-ty, N. V., aud was getting along finely. Suddenly, however, he stopped in the midst of a flood of eloquence and an-nounced that a certain young lady was trying to llirt with him. He was very nervous, he said, and could not contiu-u- o unless she deferred the operation until a more seasonable time. The young lady referrd to left the house in great confusion, and. strange to say, Mr. Milligan immediately assumed the proportions of a hero in tho eyes of the congregation. He will probably get the call. Had the incident occured anywhere in the west he would havo been thrashed by some of tho lady's relatives or admirers. Splendid, but too Fine," New York Sun. A poet of Minneapolis celebrates one of the beautiful girls of that classical metropolis in truly melodions style: ' The splendid swell of her hips, The pink of her fliiirer tips, And. ob, her klssnlile Hps! As over the pave she trips." After this, nobody will deny that Minneapolis is a delightful town, and the ladies aro perfectly splendid. But rather to free in their style. In his cosy office, lulled into pleasant dreams by the cheery glow of a base-burne-sits the street supervisor. Out-side the snow falls in dense and heavy (lakes. Busy humanity struggles through the miro and swears. What terrible street crossings, aud what fathomless mud! Women dare not venture out for fear of getting stuck or at best ruining their dresses. And through all that the snow falls and the supervisor dreams on conscious of naught save the knowledge that pay day is angular visitor. Has tho dream Bo awakening'' HKIIill r CU )SHI (JTS. So tho reapportionment bill, intro-duced by Mr. Eomunhs in the senate and thrown into conference with the legislative bill, is passed notwithstand-ing tho frantic efforts of DelegateCAlNK to defeat it. Incidentally it may be remarked that Mr. Caine seems lo be incapable of exerting any effort unless it comes to a measure affecting his masters. Had ho labored as diligently for the appropriation of a public build-ing wo might now have one. But what can ba thought of the sense of justico of a man claiming to possess ordinary in-telligence who, knowing the positive wrong of the present apportionment, would remain silent during a two years term, so far as any at-tempt ou his part was coneorned to correct it, and then when representatives from other states And it neeessary to havo something done in the interest of fair play, insist that the legislative assembly should be authorized to make the appointment, aud thus try to defeat the reapportion-ment altogether? The effect of the new bill cannot but be beneficial to the best interests of Utah. Salt Lake City and Ogden have today one-thir- of the population of the entire territory. This ought to entitle them to one third of the representation in the territorial assembly w hich of it-self would mean an increase of from ono to two members over the repre-sentation in the last house. Hut the liberals will undoubtedly hold the two outsido districts which they carried nt tho last election, namely, the Bingham and Tooele and Summit county dis-tricts, which furnish two representat-ives, making a positivo nine, and possible ten of the liberal contingent. Besides this they will have a lighting chance in other districts notably in Salt Lake, Weber and otiier counties, which is improving every day. j This change means an increased rep-resentation of that element of our pop-ulation w hich is earnestly engaged in building up out material interests. It will also securo for the important com-mercial centers of Salt Lake and Og-de- n tho consideration which their growing importance demands. Altogether tho prospects for the ter-ritory of Utah never seemed brighter, the citizens having now an opportunity by wiso legislation of obviating any fur-ther necessity for congressional in-terference with Utah affairs. Will they doit? Jerry (tres a l.eisnn. New York Herald. ' Is it true that you don't wear socks?

MIMNU I'ltOSI-F.CT-All through the couulry the niininc prospects are bright and promisiii(r. Never before were the inducement lor mining operation. so good. Farming, on the whole, has not been the iiio.st iuecpssfui industry in the United States within the last lew years, depending as it does too much on climatic condi tions and extraneous influences, and many are the hardy husbandmen who will turn this year from the furrow to the shaft an 1 try their luck there Ilaiiroads, tuo, push constantly closer to the heart of the mining regions, and facilitate the trans-port of ore. New mills springing up in eyery direction aid in the same good work. Furthermore, the silver bill of lust June, though not satisfactory in every respect, still had the tendency to raise prices and thereby call attention to the mines and while a decline, it is true, soon followed under the opera-tion of stock gamblers, we havo no uLit it is but temporary and an up-ward movement is already pweptible. t"e should be very grievously disap-pointed if before tha end of this mouth silver (junta not considerable overJI. Hut above all ami more than anything else tending to elevate the mining in-dustry to its legitimate rank of the lirst order is the certainty of free coinage in the near future. Notwithstanding the inaction of congress the sentiment in favor of Pitch a measure is becoming almost irresistible and the day is near at hand when the bill shall be passed. With all these things to encourage the capitalists and prospectors we have every reason to look forward to a year of unprecedented mining activity, ffreater in Utah than in any other state because of our greater advantages wlii'h havo never hitherto been util-ised, THE ACTING MAYOIt, It is a small matter in itself, the elec-tion of an acting mayor during the ab-sence of Mr. Scorr; but we cannot re-frain from thinking what such a man as Parson positive and progressive would do and be at the turning point of the city's history.
