It was stated by Major Wilken that 154 miles of the the road would lie in Utah, but as to the character of the territory to be traversed in Utah save only in (loose Creek valley, the major was dumb us an oyster. Why this silence? Why did not the major take his Idaho visitors mi that part of the route in Utah, which runs for a hundred miles through a trackless desert on the west aide of the Great Bait Lake? Had ho done so, it is quite reasonable to suppose that these Idaho gentlemen might have nsked a puz r.ling question or two. They might have inquired as to the wisdom of running a railroad through a hundred miles of desert when on tho east side of the lake, and with just, as short a line, it could be built through a rich and thickly populated country. The major and his Salt Lake friends, reason showed tho in their zeal, to be an apprenenRton that and all might be benefited; this talk, this dread manifested, about Ogden getting away with the trade, pointed to the fact that Salt L ike City, notwithstanding her claim that she has a not fear does Ogden, very great desire not to allow any railroad to come near to it. if she can help it, even if the railroad must be built through a desert to avoid her. The major in his speech warned Salt Lake that Ogden will get tho trade it Salt Lake is Dot up and stirring herself. And all this was applauded by a Salt Lake audience. If Salt Lake City ever appeared small, it was then, after she displayed a willingness to build a railroad away arouud on tho south and the of west lake, through a desert, all to overcome Ogden "s natural advantages. Ogden will not City-caLake Salt lie asleep and Dot humbug the Idaho people to the extent that she imagines. Idaho men of capital will want the road to run over a route whero a groat local trade can be built up, and where it ill liest pay to run the road. That will be on the east aide of tho great Salt Lake. Idaho will get the road in time. It will come to Ogden as that is the natural and proper course for it, and will not circle for tho purpose of avoiding the very point it should make. Og-de- n PAUPERS. General Miles is recognized as a sensible man and an excellent officer. He understands the Indian situation and The General the Indian character. states that there is yet great danger of His judgment will be an outbreak. accepted. If this danger did not exist, he would not proclaim its existence, as such a course could only bring discredit upon himself. It would seem that the treatment of the Indians by the Government is in a measure responsible for the present conHe dition. The Indian is a pauper. has never been educated up to being a man, and it is doubtful if he ever can be. As a pauper ho must be fed, or with the revolt of his stomach follows trouble such as the present. The assertion of Miles that the Indian has been starved into fighting is a rebuke to the policy that has starved him. The West has no love for the Indian. In the West he is appreciated for what he is, and no ideal of him is worshipped. He is known to be lazy, treacherous and savage. He is known to cumber the earth, and yet there is no method of justice by which he may be swept off the EXECUTION. Among the people interested in the problem of execution by electricity are four murderers now iu pruon iu New n to make a practical York, who are teat of it. The first on the lust in a col ored man.

All forms of execution are mvcssurily shocking. The violent death of a man reanrrl be rendered pleasant either to himself or tba spectators. Hut to slay the murderer as by a stroke of light mug is eer tainly less distressing to the public mind than to choke him to death w ith a rope and have some rejKirter detail every tremor and gurgle. Electricity is less frightful to tint murderer himself probably, but this has no bearing on the case. When the murderer cuts a throat or cracks a skull he does it without particular reference to the feelings of the victim, and forfeits any particular consideration as to his own. The object of execution is to removo him, and not to pander to his desires. Electricity seems to be the best agent yet adopted for this sombre purpose.
