Oh, rare the honey-de- that drips, By love, distilled from baby's lips ; And sweet the breath that from them now Laden with odors of the rose. Bleep, darllnu, snugly folded up, A rosebud in its mossy cup-Sl- eep, baby, sleep Away from earth her spirit seems To wander in the land of dreams; But what within that realm she sees Is part of nature's mysterios; The secrets of her deep reposo The baby never may disclose Bleep, baby, sleep I The hush of evening, deep and calm, Decendi to earth with tender balm; The bloflsoms fair their petals close, And nod and sink to soft repose: Bleep, darllnff. till the dawn, and then Bring glory to the world again Bleep, baby, sleep !

The meeting at the federal court room last night and the expression of citizens on the subject generally go to show that the people of this oity are nearly a unit in favor of the Deep Creek railroad proposed by Mr. Bacon and this sentiment we doubt not will go far to inllucnoe the city council in its con-sideration of the matter tonight. That the building of the proposed railroad would result materially in great good, to this city directly, and to the territory indireotly, there can be no question. That our mining interest Is the sure foundation and main stay of wealth and prosperity in Utah is equal-ly true, That the great coal fields on the east, and the rich mining districts on the west of this city, would be uni-ted by hooks of stool through the build-ing of this road is doubly true. That its ultimate extensions and connections must and will add four-fol- d to the im-mediate advantages to be derived from its equipmont and working is also true. That it is to be, and must be without let or hindrance, a Salt Lake road, managed by Salt Lake men and in no sense the tail of anybody olso's kite, is and must be understood from the start to the finish. That, its building and completion would inaugurate a new era and place Salt Lake city on a sure foundation as the railway and cpmrocrcial . center of the future state of Utah, is as sure as sun-rise All this and much more might bo said in favor of a first class railroad to Deep Creek 'such as Mr. Bacon pro-poses to build, providod the city ac-cepts his terms. This railroad will open up a region rich in mineral. It will add 23,000 people to this city and the trade of as many more, ,It will double the value of land over Jordan.- aud add largely to the general property valuations all over the city.' It will cause the estab-lishment of reduction works and all sorts of factories otf the land over Jor-dan, and will draw to tho vicinity of Salt Lake City nearly every manufac-turing institution that is looking for a locntion within the inter-mountai- n re-gion, because it will make Salt Lake the supply eontor for a vast region. All tho leading mining camps will then be in direct communication with and closer to Salt Luke City as a point from which their products can bo shipped than any other town, and as the head-quarters of the' financial and railway operations of this region, Salt Lake will then be'acknowledged as the metropo-lis without tho possibility of a rival. Mountains of coal and immense tim-ber districts ns well as one of tho most important wool districts In the terri-tory, are to be opened up to Salt Lake by tho eastern branch of the new road. Looking ahead ft little the railroad west means a new line to the coast. Suppose the Doep Creek mineral wealth should not prove to be so great ns ex-pected, the road would have to build further on to make it pay. If it pays to Doep Creek, of course it could afford to build on, so that in either event it is tho very thing this region and the Pa-cific coast has been crying for these many years. It is for the city council to weigh those advantages against the probable cost and draw tho balance. ' It Is also for the city council to establish such safeguards as may be necessary to protect the best interest of the people in this transaction. Perhaps the condi-tions set forth by Mr. Bacon are not his ultimatum; he may be able to concede some points of value to the city. But whatever Is done in matters of detail, the scheme should not be jeopardized, and above ull It should be pushed to a consumation without delay. The city needi, the road, the people want it, and as a mattor of business we ought to see dirt lly before winter sets in. FRANK KNOX, P't. I, C. KAHKICK, V. P'1 i. A. EAKL8, Cashier.

No longer will the arotic explorer waste his puny strength against the mighty icebergs, but rising above them in his airy flight ho will squat upon the north pole and lure the astonished aborigines with the strains of Yankee Doodle. The clash of arms that now resounds on land and sea in time of war will be re-echoed from on high when an aerial navy will pop and slay the martial hosts below. And by and by when we shall tire of our own mundane sphere, what Is to hinder us, with the aid of the M. C. A. N. Co., to equip expeditions to the moon and Mars and other planets, and stake out our government claims there in accdrdance with the land laws of the United States? The best scientists now hold that there is interplanetary air, which ought to be navigable, that is to say, the air. while it becomes thinner as we ascend, docs never give out en-tirely, but meets at a certain height the air of the neighboring planet and then increases in density as we de-scend. What an "ad" it would bo for thoM. C. A N. company to return from a trip to the moon with tangible ' evi-dences of her past and extinct glory,' or from a trip to Mars with specimens of a different order of humanity .than ours. We are sure Armour and Swift would be willing in the interest of science and as a matter of state pride to furnish the expedition with canned goods at reduced prices. And where would the Lick telescope bp then? , We might dilate upon the subject in-finitely but we desist until the M. C. A. N. company shows further signs, besides its incorporation, of an .active and useful existence. WHEN WK XV. A company named the Mount Carmel Aeronautic Navigation company filed articles of incorporation in Illinois yes-terday, intending to operate air vessels for the transportation of passengers and freight. We are glad of it. Something of this sort has been needed for some time .to extend our vision, travel, and experience. When the Mount Carmel Aeronautic Navigation company gets ready for business we hope our enemies will take advantage of the trial trip and go up in space. We can iraagiue the, revo-lution the M. C. . A. N. C. is going to work in this world. Instead of going a thousand miles to the mountain side to breathe a whiff of rarofied air the poor denizens of Illinois will simply ascend a thousand feet above tbreir marshes during the dog days and innate their lungs.

Conference weather this. CLIPPEfJ AND CONDENSED- - A man at Buohanan, Mich., is coin-ing money out of a mushroom orchard. The prickly pear is overrunning and destroyed some of the best and most fertile lands in South Africa. It is said there are only two red slate quarries in the United States one in Vermont and the other in Virginia. Of the twenty-si- x braves who signed Magna, Cliarta all but three had to "make their mark," being unable to write. A great many of the oranges on the west coast of Florida have been sold for $1 per box on the trees. This is a better price than in any previous year. The La Crosse Humane Society finds much scope for work. Two little child-ren were found in a large dog kennel, tied to a rope. They had been left there by drunken parents. The Supreme Court of Minnesota is reported to have lately rendered a de-cision declaring that "bank chucks are not cash, and do not possess legal value as money until cashed." ' During the six years comprised in the period. 1888 to 1888.no less than 289 pupilaof the public schools in Prussia have committed suicide. A large num-ber, of. these suicitlei was inspired by thafear of not passing examinations. The peculiar actions of the family dog caused J. J. Campbell's family of Dan-ville, 111., to follow him. He led them to" Where James Campbell, fourteen, lfty iu'an unconscious condition Ms horse having run a way tweaty-fou- r hours before, ' ' There is a tree or trees, in front of a Sawmill at Palatka that in a curiosity. A. hickory and magnolia, each fully two fpet.jn diameter, have grown solidly into each other from the roots to some distance up, the bark covering the whole without seam or break. Five years ago those who enjoyed bowling on "ten pins" in and al.out New York City certainly did not num-mor- o than 5,0(30, says the New York Times-- . To-day, if a census would lie takeu, it is douhtlful if less than 50,000 patrons of the alley would be counted. The once- renowned English racing yacht Cambria has left the Mer-sey for the west coast of Africa, where she is to become a "palm oil trader." Her race across the Atlantio with the American schoomer Dauntless was one of world wide interest, and when the Cambrl put in her appearance the first at New York great was the jubilation in England. A Thiladelphian justjofrom Asbury Park tells the latest dodge. An individual entered a drug store and presented an order for a pinl of whisky, signed with his own name and the letters M. D. "You're no doc-tor," said the drug clerk. "No. I didn't say I was." "Well, what does M. D. mean?" asked the clerk. To whom replied the individual brisky: "It means mighty dry!" Polvgamy was interred in the Mor-mon conference yesterday. To the city council: Delays are dang-erous. Guard the railway crossings. Unci.e Sam's pension list is pretty largo but so was tho draft upon tho boys to put down the rebellion. Nothing daunted by the odds against him McKinley proposes to tight it out ' on the tariff liue in his congressional district, Othello's occupation is gone. Since polygamy was killed the hysterical or-gan will find it difficult to till a two co-lumn vacum with a n ar-ticle on short notice. Our little army is to be fitted out with another stylo of fatigue caps. The various styles of fatigue caps and hats introduced since tho war would make an imposing display of absurd head gears. A recount of tho population of Now York is being made by tho police under the direction of Mayor Grant. A re-count of tho population of Salt Lake City this week would give us 60,000 in-habitants. One of the results of tho election of a democratic house would bo the reopen-ing of tho tariff fight with its consequent unsettling of business. The least the country can do is to give the McKinley bill a fair chance to vindicate itself. Jay Gould, Russell Sage and S. V. White fear no disturbance on account of the change in the tariff. They, if any men, have the finger on the monoy pulse of the country and know whereof they speak. ' R. L. POLK 4 CO.'S New City Directory. ' With the possible exception of the two great mercantile agencies, the pub-lishers of the new city directory enjoy the distinction of being the most widely known among the business men of the United States than any other publishers in the country. For years they have issued directories in most of tho largo cities of the east, and lately they have been making rapid inroads in the west. No matter by whom former editions have been published, when R. L. Polk & Co. come to a city other institutions engaged in similar enterprises close their doors. At last Salt Lake City has a directory which is a crodit to its pub-lishers, a fair exponent of the oity it represents, and a fund of useful infor-mation to tho curious roador. The en-terprising firm have made their bow to" the business men of Salt Lake City and of Utah, and this city greets thorn with a hearty welcome. A complote outline of a work of so many distinct and important features, would faAixcoed the limits of a news-paper article, however, enough may be said to give tho general reader an im-perfect idea of its magnitude. '. The publishers open with a preface in which they congratulate the city upon its splendid prospects and rapid growth. That, since the last city di-rectory oontalned only 8865 names, the present one contained 10,801. A won-dorf-increase for one year. Estima-ting the population by past experience in other cities we show a popula-tion of over 55,000 souis. This of course Includes the suburbs. The introduc-tory starts out with a short history of Salt Lake City and proceeds by men-tioning her many resources and advan-ages- . In speaking of Utah's mineral wealth it says: The world may be challenged to produce another such an aggregation of mineral treasures as those which lie in tho mountains and valleys tributary to Salt Lake. Though the miniug industries are yet but In their Infancy. Tho total metal output last year amounted to nearly $10,500,-000- . This certainly shows a healthy condition of affairs for an infant indus-try. Of our wator supply it assures the oity of a supply equal to 8,000,000 gal-lons every twenty-fou- r hours and shows how this may be doubled at slight ex-pense, The index to advertisements follows the general index on page 40, and shows a list of over 200 of Salt Lake's busineis men and firms. Additional names and corrections re-ceived too bVe for classification in the general direotory oooupy the space from page 61 to 63 inclusive. Passiug over "Miscellaneous Infor-mation," on p. 68 to p. 181, briugs us to tho first page of the direotory proper. This is, of course, the principal feature of the work. Here are found in alpha-betical order all the "heads of families" in Salt Lake, together with the nsmcs of all young people, both male and fe-male, who support themselves. This is a long list commencing with Aaron and ending with Zuellich. Then follows the classihod business directory, containing over one hundred pages. Some of the facts shown by this might be presented hero, from which the reader could draw his own conclusions. One hundred and twenty lawyers, with nearly a score of judgos and justices, whose duty it is to listen to the "windy aspirations" of the learnod advocates comes first. Eighty-seve- n doctors and four under-takers follow in regular order. Tho real estate men, however, cap the cli-max, as they always do, with a grand total of 260 firms. As many firms are composed of several members, it is safe to place the number of men engaged in the real estate business at 400. One feature of the work is especially worthy of notice, and we would partic-ularly recommend it to the study of the curious individual who plants "himself in the center of the walk and nearly paralyzes the innocent man hurrying home to a late dinner by inquiring which "ward" he lives in. Messrs. Polk & Co. have been to great pains and expense in answering those ques-tions, giving the boundaries of the differ-ent wards in full. We trust that in future all those persons who are unable to locate themselves without recourse to "wards and bounds," will before commencing a journey through the city provide themselves with a new City Directory. Even as a work of art the book Is far superior to anything of the kind ever preseuted to the peoplo of this city. It is a handsome volume, neatlv bound in cloth, richly embossed with gold letters on the back, aud contains nearly 800 pages. Last year's directory is a paper covered book of 208 pages nnd reminds one very forcibly of the old third reader of unpleasant recollections. As the two lie before us, it is difficult to believe that the one follows the other, with an interval of only a year between. ' With the meeting of each successive reichsrath an immense extra credit is asked by the German government for the army. This time 80,000,000 mark will be demanded in that way. And yet, as Napoleon had it, the empire is peace. The first rain of autumn illustrates the necessity of our going ahead with street paving as soon as feasible. Den-ver's disappointment in . the census returns is due cbielly to her failure to pave in time. People will not live where they must dispense with what are considered the essentials of civiliza- - tiou, no matter what other attractions and allurements a place may offer them. We should exert every effort from now on to get in shape by spring to commence the indispensible work. UK WILL K NINETY, When King, afterward Emperor, William of Germany made the notable speech at Versailles, In which ho cred-ited his marvelous achievements . to "Bismarck, who prepared, to Moltke, who guided, and to ltoon, who struck the blow" against the hereditary enemy of the fatherland, he little thought that his grandson would hurl from power the first and retire the second, the third being dead, of that remarkable trio that contributed to the success of German greatness, so soon as the scepter de-scended to his hands. But the people, whilo watching with keen anxiety the struggle of the ambitious young em-peror to essay alone the part of states-man and soldier, do not forget the grim old heroB who sorved them in the cab-inet or battle lield.1 Bismarck's popu-larity was never so great as since he resigned, and silent Moltke's ninetieth birthday, falling on the 20th of this month, is the signal throughout the empire for a popular demonstration of unprecedented extent and feeling. Contrasting Moltke with Bismarck, one seeing them both together would instinotively poiut out the former as the diplomat and the latter as tho soldier. Se quiet, so reticent, and so modest a man as the German Held marshal would best compare with our own General Grant. The on the con-trary, is stalwart, brusque, and mar-tial. A country that in time of its direst need found so unselfish a servant and genius ns Moltko, who reduced war to a mathematical problem, cannot ex-press its appreciation of the great too much. West is back once more in Salt Lake City, and The Times . bids bim a hearty welcome home. The is one of those useful citi-zens who combines enthusiasm with a thorough knowledge of our advantages and who at the same time possesses the rare gift of speech to express both in proper terms. Going to Washington as a delegate of the chamber of commerce, of which he is the worthy president, in the interest of a postoffloe appropria-tion, Mr. West never restricted him-self to tho one mission, but labored in the national capital aud in every other place he visited in behalf of Utah and Salt Lake. Now that he is back, we wish to express the appreciation of our people in his labors. We wish Salt Lake had an array of such citizens as West. The world does move. In 1849 thir-teen of the Hungarian revolutionists were hanged for high treason at Arad, and today a monument was unveiled in their honor. How the pride of Haps-bur-must be humiliated nt the thought. By the way, this commemoration re-calls one of the most barbarous inci-dents of modern history. Among the condemned patriots was tho premier. Count Bethany, a man of superb physi-ca- l proportions as well as mental ac-quirements. Unwilling to see him meet a felon's death at the end of a rope, his wife smuggled a dagger into his cell with which he duly cut his throat the night before the execution. Neverthel-ess, he was dragged out, unconscious though he was, and strung up to the gibbet. No wonder the Magyars re-- i belled against such a tyranny. A Wall From th. Tomb. Ogden Calon.
