There is a great deal of complaint in regard to the high valuation that has been placed upon property by the coun-ty assessor, and tho politicians of the l'cople's party are endeavoring to make people believe that the Liberals are re-sponsible for it. The county govern-ment is in the control of the People's party. No one except tho People's party has anything to do with the as-sessing of property and the levyiug of county taxes. Tho rate of taxation is fixed by tho board of selectmen, who are all. with one exception, members of the People's party. The county as-sessment is made by the county assessor, Jesse W. Fox, whom the People's party elected to ollice. Tho city, which is under Liberal government, has nothing whatever to do with the county taxes. CITY CIRCULATION.

Black silks are preferred in subdued luster. Round waists are still in favor, with ribbon bolts fastened with a large ro-sette. Basques are made longer than before, and the double breasted Btyle is almost universal. Sleeves may be covered with passe-menterie, showing that they are different from the bodice. All the new colors are in the range of violet or purple, a color that is constant-ly growing in favor. Printed flannel, mousseline de laine and stamped crepon are new materials for negliges and tea gowns. Perhaps the most novel of all trim-mings are the wide insertions without points laid across the front of skirts. A surplice blouse with wide sleeves, a Chinese petticoat and Turkish slippers is one modiste's idea of a novel tea toilet. Black brocades in small, set patterns are always in demand for entire dresses which are made up plainly for house wear. Poult de soie, the new high luster gros grain, is shown in plain goods and in brocades for combination with wool or silk, Somerville Journal. IT WAS NOT BUSINESS. If tho council really means to make any improvements in the waterworks it is taking rather a roundabout way to do it. Bids were advertised for, and five contractors from distant points came here at considerable expense and put in bids, all of which have beeu re-jected, and new ones on different specifications are to bo called for. Un-der ordinary circumstances no one could find any fault with this course, except the lowest bidder, who was entitled to the con-tract. But it is intimated that the coun-cil never intended to award any contract on the bids which it advertised for that It merely wanted to got some practical information us to the cost of the work in case it was decided to do it. If this is true, all the bidders have just grounds of complaint, because none of them had any show of getting tho contract. The council should have ad-vertised for information, and offered to pay for it. Tho next time the council calls for bids it should make up its mind as to what it actually wants, and then award the contract accordingly. Con-tractors will not como here from a dis-tance to bid on work unless they are treated in a bnsinoss-lik- manner. ARRIVALS AM) CLOSE OP MAILS.

T., and a few days since died in great agony of hydrophobia. Out in Nevada telegraph poles in low places, where water stands in winter, are said to have taken root and are covered with foliage. The poles, are cottonwood and were planted with the bark ou them. To shrink woolen goods: 1. After pulling treat the goods on a perforated table with super-heato-d steam. 2. Pass through a bath of alum of 1.07 spirit grains for half an hour, wring and dry; wash, soap, wash off and dry. Sheet iron is rolled so thin at the Pittsburg Iron Mills that 12,000 sheets are required to make a single inch in thickness. Light shines as readily through one of these sheets as it docs through ordinary tissue paper. Says a dispatch from Sidney, Ohio: "Something remarkable happened here to a cow. There were two large trees close together on the edge of a clover field. A fence touched either tree, but the gap had no fence. The cow squeezed into the gap, and without passing through began to browse. She soon begau to swell with gas generated by the green clover, and to get her out one of the trees had to be cut." Last winter Luman Foote ascertained that it would cost him fifteen dollars to li'l his Ice house with Ice; therefore he filled it with damp snow, well trodden down at a cost of $1.25. The snow has kept very well, and half of it yet remains. Of course, he cannot use tho snow in his refrigerator and ice pi'cher, but he places meat, fish, milk, butter, etc., on the snow in the ice house, and such articles keep as well ns thej' would on ice. James B. Swigert, of Carlisle Springs, Pa., is the possessor of au old turkey gobbler which is now doing the duty of fowl of' the feminine gender. Mr. Swigert a few days ago missed the gob-bler, but subsequently found hira in a field hatching a nest of eggs. The old fellow sat very contentedly, and seems greatly pleased with doing the duties of a mother. The turkey hen which laid the eggss which the gobbler is hatching is now laying in auather nest. The work of. eanaliziug the Seine, Which has been in progress for fifteen years, is still being actively pushed for-ward. According to the engineer, M. Bouquet de la Grye, the cost will not exceed 135,000,000 francs. The object of the work is to deepen the river so that vessels of, 2000 to 2500 tons, which at present have to stop at Rounen. may go to Paris, Ills intended to recon-struct an archj of each of the bridges across the Seine to allow of the passage of th vessels.! :.-- . ': A telegram sent from Constantinople on May 20 tells of the destruction of au Armenian village by an earthquake. The village was Kayi, iu tbe district of Kefahie. Mineral springs spouted from the crevices made in tho ground, and flooded tho lields: .Thtre was no loss of life, as two days previously subter-ranean rumblings were heard, and cracks appeared in the ground, in con-sequence of which tho caimakan of the district ordered the inhabitants to leave the villages. ' A singular case of blood poisoning is reported from Nyack, N. Y. Ambrose Cells, a young man well known there, lost a favorite chicken, and being anxi-ous to know the cause of the fowl's death he proceeded to dissect it. While cutting tho chicken his knife slipped and wounded the hand of his wife, who was assisting hiiu. The woman's hand soon began swelling, as did also her en-tire arm and face, and soon she was in a terrible condition. Medical aid was called, and Mrs. Cells is now considered out of danger. Sir Henry de Burgh-Lawrenc- e thinks that he will revolutionize naval con-struction by his plan for constructing ships with three keels, between which their bottoms are curved in combina-tion with suecial internal propellers, worked and housed in chambers from which the water is partially excluded, each propeller having a separate set cf machinery, working independently of each other. Sir Henry claims that rolling would be almost prevented and that the ship's power of climbing waves Avould be immensely Increased. CRISP CONDENSATIONS The average height of the clouds from the earth is about one mile. A Milan newspaper is publishing the Bible in 210 half penny parts of eight pages each.

It is said that iiO.000 strangers remain over in New York every night, furnish-ing plenty of business for the 126 hotels in the city. The dolphin and bonito are thought to be the fastest fishes, and although their speed is not known they are fully capable of twenty miles an honr. The normal velocity of tho carrier pigeon in calm weather is about 1,210 yards a minute. With a strong wind in the direction of flight they have reached 1,980 yards a minute.

The Ogden Commercial is still howl-ing about the Salt Lako census. It is rather singular that Ogden should find fault with our census, when Salt Lake makes no complaint about that of Ogden. The t'Jiinese threaten retaliation. (Such a course would aft'oct about 2000 Americans in that country. But if this country were thrown open to the Chi-nese it would be a serious blow to mil-lions of our workiugmeu. Let them retaliate. An Amendment.

The Herald says if tho Liberals were to gaiu control of the city schools, teachers would be selected on account of their politics instead of their (nullifi-cations, Nothing could be farther from the truth. The Liberals do not believe in mixing cither politics or re-ligion, wilh the schools. It is their aim to separate tho church from the schools as well as from politics. , THE FIKE DEPARTMENT. The equipment of the lire depart-ment is wholly inadequate for the ne-cessities of this city. It consists of two engines, two hose carts, and a hook and ladder truck There are only thirteen paid men iu the department. Just thiuk of this iu a city of fifty thou-sand people! One of tho very first things the city council should do is to enlarge tho fire department and give it a proper equipment. The chief engi-neer has made a requisition for certain needed supplies, and uo time should be lost in furnishing them. These, how-ever, are intended ouly for temporary purposes. . The council should at once make arrangomeuls for improving the department iu a substantial and permanent manner. There ought to be au engine house in each ono of the five municipal wards of the city, and each house should be supplied with an engine, hose cart and nil necessary appliances. At each house there should bo a well organized volunteer lire com-pau- y and at least seven paid men. At present the engines arc very properly stationed in the business center of the city, but whenever a fire occurs at any distance much time is lost iu reach-ing it. If live engines were properly stationed at differeut points the city would be well protected. At any ordinary fire ono engine would be sulllcient, and if more were needed a general alarm cotild bring them all into use. The fact is that Salt Lake has very poor tire protection. The lire depart-ment is manned and equipped for a town of about 10,000 people. Its facili-ties should be increased at least live times. If this were done, we believe it would meet with the approval of nine-tenth- s of the Until quito recently Salt Lake has boon very fortu-nate in the matter of fires, and the peoplo consequently never had their alteution called to the inadequacy of the fire department. Because they never had had a big lire they felt secure, and uo doubt believed that the depart-ment was equal to any emergency. The recent fires, however, have waked them up, and they now see the necessity of additional facilities. If Salt Lake had a first-clas- s water-works system with a good pressuro, no more engines would bo required. All that would bo needed would be addi-tional hose carts, but until we get a better water supply we shall have to rely upon engines. Until better facili-ties are afforded it is an Injustice to crit-icise the fire department, as it is really not able to properly handle a large fire. The council is the party to be held re-sponsible until tho needed improve-ments are made. WHEN DAY IS HONE. Josephine Puett Spoonts. When day is done, and down the steep Of rose bund sky, the shadows creep To nestle where the valley fair Smiled through noon's sheen of sinibright air. And wrap the drowsy folds in sleep-T- hen does a solemn essence sweep Athwart the soul, and vigil keep, As faithful mourners knee in prayer, Whin day is done. In that strange hush, dear Ood, we weep Our shattered hopes, and blindly reap The scattering grain, the wealth of tare, That, meets our hand. In weak despair We seek thy throne, as wayworn sheep, When day is done. Thk operating management of John "VV. Young's Park City railroad is far from satisfactory to its patrons. The train dispatcher is a mere boy, and the trains are handled by telephone. Last evening 'the train from Park city was held iu tho mountains for an hour aud three-quarter- when it could have been brought into Salt Lake before tho departure of the outgoing traiu. The passengers were very Indign.tnt at the , delay, which they claimed was wholly unnecessary. The fact is that this road is being well patronized, and is bound to prove profitable to its owner; but un-less the trains are bandied in better shape people will hesitate about travel-ing over the Hue. C'OI.ORA DO NOTES. The Grand Junction Star mournfully observes that tho Ute removal bill should be changed to the "Utestayable bill." This is the season of year when the averago Colorado editor announces on the home side of his sneet that "gang rule must go." The fact that Pueblo has been made a city of the first class does not create oue-hal- f the excitement as the letting of tho contract to light the mineral palace. Whilo Denver was quarreling over paving her streets, Omaha worked the census enumerators and succeeded iu knocking the Colorado capital silly on population. The prospect of Governor Hooper retiring to tho sequestered shades of private life after his present term of of-fice is very flattering. He has all the requisites which go to make an average every day citizen. The News is authority that two-third- s of the saloon keepers of Denver violate tho Sunday closing law. The average drunkard will accumulate a large aud on wholesome jag on Sunday, as well as any other day, if possible. A compromise silver bill has at last heen agreed upon. The silver bullion redemption clause has been stricken out, and the silver certificates, redeem-able in coin, will bo current money iu every sense of the term. This measure, which will be passed, is regarded as a victory for silver, and a big step towards free coinage. It is generally conceded that the passage of this law will have a wonderful inline nee in re-viving trade and commerce. To the silver producing sections of tho country it will prove a godsend. This will be the case in Utah. A great mining boom may be looked for, and it will be a hundred times better for Salt Lake than any real cstato boom. IiV speaking of the closing of the Urooui hotel at Ogdeu, the Commercial Kays: "At the present time the situa-- i ' tiou is peculiar. Here is a youug, thriving, growing city with a popula-tion of nearly 23,000, whose hotel facil-ities were, even before the Broom was closed, entirely inadequate to meet the demands of the traveling and boarding public." The federal census gave Og-den a population of about 1(1,000, which is about 9000 below the census taken by 1 he Commercial editor. This is what probably discouraged the proprietor of the Broom hotel. But he should not have been so easily discouraged. He should have waited until the proposed city census is taken. That will proba-bly give Ogdeu a population of 82,000. Neiv York's Greatest Detective. Inspector Byrnes is a tall, finely devel-oped mun. His hair and carefully trimmed mustache are gray. His com-plexion is florid. He has nice hauds. His eyes well, now we come to the re-markable feature of the mau. They are gray in color. They can smile kindly and they can give an impassive, sphinx like glance that sends the cold chills over you. 1 con fancy no more genial, pleasant companion than this man. nor a more stern, uncompromising, relentless questioner.

Besides possessing the only d calf in the territory, Springville has a poet whose muse is always on tap.
