He's look-ing for fun, and he's intitled to it ; the time for work instead of play will come soon enough. In the meanwhile you have to pay k the piper ; you have to foot the clothing bills. Well, that's been so since the world began, or at least since civilization brought clothing with it, and the bills won't be so very steep after all if you will put the boxy into one of our stylish well-mad- e and durable suits. He may be able, so to speak, to kickout.the side of a house, but it'll take him all of his time to wear out that suit. Strictly 1 --Price House. J. P Gardner. 141 Main. HOTEL KNUTSFORD.

THE CCECK D'ALENE TROUBLE. There is absolutely no excuse for the mur-derous assaults of the striking miners in the Occur d'Alcne country. They have cer-tain grievances against the op-erators and while the alternative may be hard for them, to submit or starve, and axplaius in a measure their desperation, yet the resort to anarchy does not improve their condition, but loses them, instead, the sympathy of their fellow men. On the other hand it will be remembered that the mine owners have, from the begin-ning of the strike, threatened to subdue the miners by military force and appealed for troops when they should have ap-pealed to reason and common sense, Thus goaded for three months and aband-oned with their wives and children to hun-ger, thes-- men at last turned rebels and resisted the laws of the country, reckless of any consequences they ruight invoke. It is a lamentable condition of things and the troops operating against the strikers may find it serious business to quell the dis-turbance, although, resistance to Un-cle Sam means summary punishment of them. At the same time It may be well to remember that by quiat and cunning in-fluences the operators have contributed their full shara toward the present rebellion. "We say this ail the more readily because the operators possess the means to present their side of the case in the moat favorable light while their employes have not. DOWNWAED HE WAS LED. Gradually and Irresistatrly the Subtle) Hab-it Fastened Itself Upon Him Until Life Seemed Hardly Worth the Llvin. To the Salt Lake Enxnr Institute, No. i East Second South treet. Suit Lake City, Utah: Gentlemen I take this method in acknowl-edging to you the deep sense of gratitude I feel for the beneficent treatment I received through the course recently taken in the Ensor institute. For over thirty year I have been a slave to the liquor habit, the effect of which had taken such strong hold of my system as to lead myself and friends to believe that I was hopeless! doomed to share the fate of a common drunkard. AH effort at reformation signally failed and neither the power of the will or the or-dinary treatment of reputable physicians could in a measurable degree effect a favor-able change in my behalf." Every succeeding debauche indulged in only increased my appetite and gradunily and irresistably I was lead on to greater and more frequent indulgences until I had readied that stage of degradation in which all hope for reformation was abandoned. In this deplorable condition I was influenced by friends and the appeal of a faithful and patient wife to enter your institute for the cure of the liquor habit. I need not refer you to the result; suffice it to say that after three week's treatment, I can truthfully attest as to the efficacy of the cure wrought and that when I emerged from the institute all desire for intoxicants had vanished, and with the system thor-oughly purged and cleansed, I feel no in-clination whatever to return to the curse from which treatment had so happily divrced me, and I now feel that the cure is eif'ti-tliy- awl eriiiainit. To anyone contemplating treatment in the Elisor Institute, either for liquor, morphine, opium, cocaine aud tobae.'O habits, I will s:iy that the treatment is safe, eifective and pleasant, carrying with it the results sought with no deleterious eilect to follow, leaving the pat tut in condition the same as though lie hsd never been a victim to acursetbat so readily yields to the potency of the Ensor cure. Hoping that other unfortunates may avail themselves of your treatment, I am gratefully yours, E. (J. Holmes. SaH Lake City, July S, IS'.)2. CLOSING OF MAILS. . At Salt Lake City P. O. July 3, '92.

FAIR PLAY. There is considerable dissatisfaction among liberals at the method adopted for dealing out tickets of admission to the com-ing conference, on the 20th. Some of those disaffected say that they have grown gray in the service of the liberal party and do not uow propose to beg for tickets to their party meeting of a self constituted committee. In sonifl cases tha language used is much stronger if less parliamentary. The result will be that many of the old time liberals will be conspicuous for their absence at the conference unless the dissatisfaction is al-layed in some way. That should be done in ilie interest of the American birth right, fair Pay. i A ii .solution of the new British parlia-ment and another appeal to the country for Irish home rule is already being discussed. It seems that the recent elections satisfied no one. w The Agricultural College of I tah. Bv the liberality of the government of the United States and the territory of Utah, the agricultural college of Utah has ? 180,000 to expend during the coining two years for an increase of its faculty and an addition to its plant. Its growth thus far lias been unpar-alleled in the history of such institutions. It has live full courses of instruction, viz: Agriculture, mechanic, arts, domestic arts, civil engineering and a. commercial course. It also lias several short courses of instruc-tion. Its large corps of professors are all specialists. The distinguishing feature of the college is that, in addition to a thorough general education, it gives practical exerci-ses every day in every department, on the farm, in "the shops, in the eookinsr, laundry, sewing, dairy and other working depart-ments. In addition it has extensive appara-tus for illustration. Military science is taught by an officer detailed from the na-tional army. Board costs $2.50 to $3.00 per week. Tui-tion is free; admittance fee $5. For cata-logue address J. AV. Sanborn, Piesident, Logan, Utah. And now George "William Cletis is dying- - This year is prolific of shining marks and New York is furnishing a good eharo of thorn. It kavt floods ;u theouth and southwest are seriously damagiug the crops. Mean-time in Utah never promised richer. ,iIANCKS FOR THK NEXT DELEGATE. Nolh withstanding the dog days are upon lis there is an undercurrent of excitement running through the political seas. "Where a year ago everybody was anxious to deny that the division movement intended to precipitate the question of statehood, every-body seems as anxious today to assert that it means nothing el.se. Iu the kaleidoscope of eveuts no one can tell when Utah's turn for admission may come. Even the liberals do not fix a very remote period for that occurrence while the divisionists of course puce it in the near future. Now, in the case that Utah should be ad- - netted as a state the man who happened to be at the time our delegate to congress would have a first lien upon the United States senatorship. "Wyom-ing to the ent and Idaho to the west of us have emphasized a precedent that was set to them by the states of tho northwest previously admitted. At present the delegate, does not amount to much, ex-cept as a stipendiary of Uncle Sam for $5000 a year and commutations; but the next delegate may be the one destined for pro-motion to a senatorship, and therefore the flection will be worth something in pros-pects. UTAH PARAGRAPHS. 1'rovo will probably buy a chemical engine for its fire department. Moses Thatcher is billed to talk democracy at Provo on Friday night. The republicans of Frovo will present the republican drum corps of that place with a fine wagon, seating fifty persons. Although it is not definitely known why John B. Me'.drum committed suicide at Gar-den City a few days ago. it would seem a letter from his wife, intimating that she in-tended getting a divorce, was the cause. COMMON KNOWLEDGE. Thirty one states have adopted the Aus-tralian ballot system. In Kansas they call members of the peo-ple's party "populists." Poor people are supplied with spectacles free of charge by a boston society. There are 4(5.000 oil wells in the United States, aud t'koir daily output Is 130,000 barrels. Last week at Tarboro, X. C, two men, aged 75 and K! years, were arrested for steal-ing a hog. The soil of Hay ti is ' very fertile. Corn is easily grown and three crops can be raised annnallv. i The totel value of matches made yearly throughout the world represents a value of tl85,lNJO,000. Indiana has more Germans than any other state. They constitute 55 per cent of the population. Of 200,000 women working at 100 different trades in New York City 127,000 support their husbands. In 100 years $500 worth of pennies would be worth $250, so quickly does copper money wear away. A Connecticut scientist calculates that there are 43,530,000 mosquito larvae to an acre of swamp land. An ancient copper mine, which was first worked 11S3 years ago, ia about to be re-opened in Mushashi, Japan. It is stated that 40,000,000 of Queen Vic-toria's subjects in India never know what it is to get enough to eat. A ELOYVH AKD I'l'XCTl'EED. Hknry M. Stanley, the explorer, is iu trouble. It - not the rear guard, nor E.nx Pasha, nor native African traitors, this time, that worry him, but his own folly and over-weening ambition. Stanley was not satis-lie- d to rest 011 his laurels as aa explorer of. the (lark continent; he must achieve re-nown also as an M. P. The renown will not lie achieved because II. M. was beaten, although he stultified himself in the campaign by 'denying his American record, and now he is coming in for a deal of abuso in the English press that will strip him of much of his glory. Without question Henry M. Stanley is a man, and without question, too, Le Is a much overrated man. There are many people still living who knew him when lie was a reporter of an eastern paper during the Indian troubles in Nebraska. These people say that he made his headquarters in i Hnaha never going forward to the scene of liostilities.but gathering his information from Incoming teamsters aud soMiers, and prepar-ing from these tiie sensational news ho sent back. A niau who will "fake" dispatches in America will do the same thing iu Africa, and we are not in the least astounded that his accuracy ami veracity i have both beeu questioned. Of course Stanley is a courageous and a hnrdy man or he could not have accom-plished what he has. At the same time he Is an adventurer without moral balance w horn friendly fortune thrust forward and whom adverse fortune would just as easily liave thrust downward. When he came to America to lecture lie was only too glad to pose as an American citizen, for revenue only; when it seemed useful for him to renounce this rotintry as part of his campaign argument, Lc did it just as glibly and readily. N' one in this country will sympathize with the explorer in his discomfiture be-isu-be forfeited all sympathy through his own venality. They Heat the Record. The Rio Grande Western train which left Salt Lake on Sunday morning at 8 a. m. ar-rived at Denver at 7 :o0 a. m. Monday morn-ing, thus making the run between Salt Lake and Denver in twenty-thre- e hours and thirty minuteSj surpassing all previous records of any regular train between these, two cities. The Rio Grande Western people claim they can make this time with ease, comfort and safety, aud were it any advantage to put passengers into Denver at an earlier hour they could arrange their schedule to do so. Their efforts for improving the service be-tween Utah aud the Colorado metropolis should be encouraged by all classes of trav-elers. Four Doi.gi.as was called upon to furnish troop-- ia the late Sioux uprising and it may If called upon iu the present Idaho insur- - rcelion; all of which proves that Fort Doug-las U conveniently located for any emer-gency that may arise for one thousand miles around, and it should be enlarged. Excursion Pioneer Holiday, .July 24th. On account of Pioneer holiday the Union Pacific have authorized the sale of excursion tickets from and to all stations iu Utah at one fare for the round trip.
