We understand that the result of the inquiry will be unsatisfactory to tho l'arley canyon project and in that case the expendit-ure of SSOO.OOO for a conduit would be a criminal waste. The question limn arises, what is the most expedient scheme to adopt Is it a pumping plant south of Liberty Park Jt is claimed that the springs are (lowing every twenty-fou- r hours uq amount of water equal to 3,500,000 gallons and that the right of the city to it is not dis-puted. Well, then, here is a tempo-rary solution of the vital question. We aj temporary because no plan so far proposed contemplates the future. It is at best an immediate makeshift when a comprehensive policy should be pur-sued. Councilman Pembroke' sresolu-tio- n looking toward the utilization of Utah Lake as a permaneut reservoir may come under that category, but it must tirst be demonstrated that it is practical, and furthermore, that the city can afford to experiment with it. Before the Parley canyon scheme is further agitated it should be ascer-tained whether the city owns any inter-est in the water there. If the city does own an interest then let it be further ascertained whether the conditions tinder which it is held can be fullilled; whether water gauged in the high tide of spring can be furnished in the low ebb of siimnier, either from the stream (lowing through Parley's creek or the Salt Lake canal. When this has been settled then let it be ascertained whether the supply of water can be de-pended upon from that source, not under the most favorable, but under the most unfavorable circumstauces, INSURANCE.y Heber J.

It is therefore that we believe drover Cleveland has strengthened his prospects by his letter yesterday evening, notwithstand-ing ho differs from the majority of his party on the leading issue. One thing can be depended on every time: The democratic convention will consider nothing except policy. Its goal is oflice and its device, the end justifies the means. If tho party should succeed sliver would have an implaca-ble enemy in the white house ami free coinage would be infinitely deferred. And still there are halfhearted republicans to bo found here-abouts who llirl with the democratic parly on uecnuut of its alleged love for silver. The truth is, whatever relief in that direction we may expect will come through the republican party, and had cmperato council prevailed in the present congress wo would today have a law as near akin to free coinage as Pctler is to a demagogue. And tho rest would have followed in the nat-ural order of things. Perhaps the epistle of Cleveland to he goldites in Cooper Union w ill open the eyes of the country to the true re-lation of democracy and silver. DEMOCRACY AND SII.VKK. 80 (Jrover Cleveland stands "pat" on his silver hand, lilull is his game. According to his notion, free coinage of the metal is a dangerous aud reckless experiment. Well, this is not surpris-ing, and were it not for certain mys-terious hints from the friends that he had recently changed his views on the subject, nothing else but the denunciations uttered by him in the goldite meeting held at Cooper I'nion, New York, last night, would have been expected. l?ut what effect, t may be asked, will his attitude have 011 his prospects for the democratic uominatiou ncxtyearr Candidly spoken, a favorable effect. When the convention meets it will resolve first, that the south is solid for the democratic ticket anyway and tinder all circumstances; second, that the west is lost to it beyond reasonable hope and, third, that in the doubtful states of New Vork. New Jersey and Connecticut, that is in the shallow of Wall street as it were, a gold bug is likely to have a better chance for suc-cess than a silver advocate, and reason-ing thus the democratic party, now j fuiiag as the friend of silver, will cast THE SOUL Of THE CHILDREN. 'Who blli for the little cutldren-bo- dy and soul nnd bratni1 Who bids for the little chlldrett-f- alr and with-out Htiln? Will no one bid ? What, no one-f- or their souls so pure and white And m for all good or evil which the world on their page may wrltef " "I bid," cries Deggary, howling, "I h'I for them, one and all! I'll teach them a thousand lessons- - to lie, to skulk, to crawl They nh til sleep In my lair like maggots; they auall rot In the fair sunshine; And If they g.rve my purpose. 1 hope they'll answer thine." "And I'll bid higher and higher," says Clime with wol (It b grin, "For I love to lead the children through the pleasant paths of sin. They shall swurm In the streets to pilfer, they shall plague the broad Uhway, Till th j.v grow too oid lor pity and ripe lor lit law to slay. "The prison and the eallows are pienty In the land: 'Twere folly not to use them, so proudly do lh-- y stand. Give me the little children- -I ll take them as they're born. And feed their evil passions with misery and scorn. "Give me the little children, ye good, ye rich, ye wine. And let the busy world eplu around, while ye hut your Idle eyes. And your Judges Hiull have work, and your lawyeis wag the tongue. And the gaolers and policemen shall be fathers to the young." Charlii Mackai. As Ogden postollice embezzler has been arrested in Washington. The Ogden press will hail this circumstance as an advertisement of the booming financial condition of the town. "We, tho people," resolved the three tailors of Toole street. "We, the people." chime the three alliance mem-bers of the Illinois legislature. A all.MNU SANITARIUM. For a quarter of a eeutury the west mountain (Bingham) milling district in Utah, by the extent of its mineral ledges, the aggregate yield of its prec-ious and useful metals, its accessibility to niarkot and the cheapness with which its ores are reduced, has won for itself the first place in the grand pro-cession of famous producing mining districts iu Utah. During all the years named from its hills and placers a con-tinuous stream of riches, varying in volume, has furnished bread to the eater, seed to the sower and material prosperity to tho territory. A new and downward departure is being inaugurated in the "Old Reliable." Down through the surface strata of pyrites (heretofore the occasion of profanity to tho retreating, horror-stricke- n miner,) some adventur-ous navigators have pushed their pros-pecting picks and powder-blast- s in pur-suit of a subteranean ocean of market-able ore. They have found it all honor to their indomitable pluck and enter-prise. Comparatively bare-hande-labor, rather than plethoric capital, has pe ned the way into this new world of mineral wealth. The captains of in-dustry who have led the van of this dis-covery column, a majority of them but a few years ago dependent upon their daily wages for their daily bread, have, like P. A. H. Franklin, tho Jay Gould of our mining interests snatched vic-tory from the jaws of defeat, and are pushing their successes. "Deep mining" is to be tho order of the day hereafter In Bing-ham. Leaving "Muudic" behind with the Cornishman's saying that "he rides a good horse;" tho industrial col-umn is pushing its way from the sur-face to the center and long trains of loaded wagons and cars join in trium- - phant procession bearing legitimate spoils of gold nnd silver to the rear. Let the idle capital of Utah set the idle men of Utah and the west at work in the opening mines of Bingham and elsewhere. Instead of watching van-ishing banking accounts in the city, draw freely on exhaustluss treasures in the mountains. Show your faith in a standard by adding gold and silver to the exhausted treasuries of the world. From llingham alonu by a long pull, a strong pull and a pull altogether, you can make from the sleep of centuries ten millions of precious metal within tho next twelve months. We are drifting into a community of speculators, consumers and pot-hous- e politicians. The American itch for of-fice and city life can best be cured by roughing it in the mountains. It is but a day's walk to liinghaiu and there are as good fish in that newly discovered sea as were ever caught. Let the men who are not ashamed to handle dollars, club together with the men who are not ashamed to wield the pick and shovel and together leave for tho mines for their own and tho city's good. Work in the hills means growth of wealth and population in the marts of trade. Pro-duction precedes accretion. Creat cities like great rivers depend upon a multiplication of tributaries. "Bread or work" is the cry of the unemployed in Toronto. No wonder Canada clamors for reciprocily with tho United States. Ohio Republican Clubs In Convention. Columbts, O., Feb. 12. Special to The TiMB). A convention of the re-publican league clubs of the state was called to order here today by the presi dent who in his opening address pro-nounced a glowing eulogy upon Abra-ham Lincoln. The reports presented by the various delegates indicated that the defeat of November had not dis-heartened the young republicans but had rather stimulated them to engage with more order and enthusiasm in the next political conflict. Railroad rumors follow on the heels oftionld's southern trip. If they all materialize, the wizard will be lord of all he surveys. Cantlav didn't know-tha- t the whisky was loaded.

Mies Oroxel a Slater. ri r rsBt kg, Fa., Feb. 12. Special to The Times.) Miss Catherine Drexel. of Philadelphia, daughter of the late F. E. Drexel, who has been at the con-vent of the eisters of mercy for a year and a half, today made her final vows as a member of the order. AN AMERICAN IOI.OIKK. If we should be asked to write the epitaph of General Sherman, who at this writing is reported to be dying, we would inscribe upon the shaft of Time the simple words: "An American Soldier." Educated at West Point for the profession of arms, he was not a mighty warrior in the piping times of peace. He was too active and restless lor tno idle me in a garrison. lie bad too much of the steam engine tempera-ment of the American in him to waste his energy in killing routine duty, and so he, like Grant, resigned his commis-sion and struck out in the world on his own responsi-bility. Like the typical American that he w as, Sherman never confined him-self to any ono thing. Ho was a versa-tile genius, banker, lawyer, journalist, anything that happened to promise suc-cess. And when the war broke out he proved himself again a thorough Amer-ican whose patriotism persevered in the face of the fool censors who pro-nounced him insane. Slier-nan'- services in the war form an important chapter in the history of the United States. They will never be forgotten by a grateful republic, but their recital belongs to the biographical column. After the war, when (rant became president, Sher-man succeeded him in command of the regular army, with the newly created rank of general. Did he content him-self with the nominal duties of his lant oflice? Not long. He took part, as a spectator on the French side, in the Franco-Germa- war.wrote his memoirs and busied himself with a hundred and one things that would have paralyzed a younger man, When the uew retire-ment act passed congress it was pro posed to exempt Sherman from its op-eration, but he would not listen to it, not he, the generous American. He insisted ou sharing tho fate of his brother ollicers through all the vicissitudes of the service. Retired, the general, like all great Americans, was frequently mentioned ns a possible candidate for the presi-dency. Ami like nil good Americans, also, he was a ready speaker," a favorite Bt banquets and public meetings. At times he could almost wax eloquent. He admired w omen, another American trait.

Powell of Columbus, O., when at the Palmer house, "McKinley will be tho candidate on the republican side, and if Campbell will accept he will be the democratic nominee. It will bo a square fight botween protection and tariff re-form. Although McKinley is a popular man in the state, tariff reform will win. McKinley had better make the race on some other issue if he expects to secure votes. The people of Ohio want tariff reform and will demonstrate their de-sires in the fall."

An Appotlto From Which No Ran of Hon Has Moon Kxonipt. Boston Transcript. It seems to be as much a part of man's nature to drink exciting beverages as it is to breathe. No people, no country, no age, has been free of the habit, and, of course, the abuse.with its consequent intoxication and all tho attendant evils, has also been a constant and universal experience. The study of tho question reveals a wonderjul amount of ingenu-ity on the part of ignorant people in the production of alcoholic drinks from the most unpromising material. It has been proved, too, that tho abuse of the habit of drinking has so destroyed or injured the sense of taste that only the strongest and most pungent liquids will satisfy the unnatural craving. Women have been known to drink enormous quantities of cologne water merely to gratif3' their unwholesome appotities. There have been instances where raw alcohol has not been too tiery for a victim of this terrible feeling that tney call thirst. In country places, remote from business centers, men have extracted spirits from bitter roots, from ordinary vegetables, from all sorts of growing substances at an expenditure of thought, time and study that, devoted to a useful end, might have produced wonderful results. Lately ether has been drunk to an alarming extent by the Irish peasantry, and the habit seems to be spreading. It is said that at fairs, markets, in rail-way carriages, particularly the third class, tqe odor from either-ladde-breaths is appalling to one who is not used to the fumes of the ding- - The poison, it is said, is freely sold at public houses and groceries. Us effect is often so to excite the wretched victims that, at a fair or other public gathering, the fun, as they all it, becomes so fast ami furious that the ordinary decencies of life are disregarded. It is declared, moreover, that the habit of ether-drinkin- has been ac-quired by persons of comfortable means and respectable position. Ether-taker- s of this class, like habitues of other forms of inebriety, rarely avow tho true reason for their wrong-doing- . They take ether as others take alcohol for various muudane ills. The story of American Horse, ono of the Sioux delegates in Washington, re-garding the Wounded Knee creek light, reads like a harrowing dime novel yarn. Ho was not present at the inellee and what he says about it is simply a narra-tive at secoud hand. Still, tho confes-sion made by him tiint a bad Indian fired tho first shot, thus precipitating the massacre, would indicate that he meant to bo fair. Ceilalu facts corro-borate the story of American Horse. There is no question but what unarmed women and helpless children were killed by the wholesale. They were chased into ravines and cut down in their tracks. There is no question also but w hat General Miles blamed Colonel Forsyth for the commission or omission of some act connected therewith, for which the latter was suspended. The court of jnquiry failed to exonerate him. It being the Seventh cavalry, Custer's old command, that engaged in the light, the motive for it would not be far to seek. At any rate there is enough prima facie evidence on hand to justify a thorough investigation into tho in discriminate slaughter of squaws and papooses in that remarkable engage-ment. Probably tho ollicers concerned : would be the first to invite such an in-vestigation to clear them, if possible, of any guilt. War and sentiment are in-- I compatible terms, but so are likewise revenge and civilization. Way I p Speaker Will ! Tiiarj. Chicago, Feb. 12. Special to The Times.
