Investigation proved the story to have been told to scare her lover, with whom she had had a quarrel. She is 20 years old and quite pretty. M. Y. Lacey, a Salt Lake man, was unfortnnate enough to find a burly thief in his coal bin last Saturday night, and it came near causing him tc lose his life, the thief trying to d retch his heart with a knife. After a severe struggle, Lacey escaped with a severe cut across the arm.

EL Per- rins, until recently president of the New England Whip company, started from this city today with a party of fifteen others for a hew gold geld In the Northwest Territory. The new field is said to extend over fifteen milea along a tribntnry of the Stickeen river, and to be even richer than the Klondike country. In one of his letters to parties here concerning the discovery, Dawson, after whom Dawson City was named, states that the region gives every indication of abundance of gold, bat that it is even more inaccessible than Klondike, there being but one way to get in, and that extremely dangerous. The nearest trading post or point of communication with the outside world is several hundred miles. Those who left this , morning have been quietly preparing for the trip for five months, keeping everything secret, as they wish to get in before any excitement causes a rush. The party will leave San Francisco tomorrow for Victoria, B. C.

On the other hand, if Secretary Gage continues to press upon congress bill, the object of which, he says, is first to cotamit the country more thoroughly to the gold standard, and the immediate result of which is to throw doubts' upon the sincerity of the president's declarations in favor of continued efforts to secure bimetallism, a political turmoil will arise in congress which will split the now united Republican party into fragments, while it will unite and consolidate the now - opposaL It is not feasible to retire the greenbacks; there is more probability that a bill will be sent to tbe president to increase their amount. It is not possible to secure the passage through either house of a hill making the greenback! into gold notes or suthor-izln- g bonds payable in gold. The effort to effect either thing will probably result in tbe passage of a bill for the redemption of the greenbacks in silver dollars, and for the payment of all United Statea bonds in gold or silver coin, in the discretion of the president, who will be commanded to exercise his opinion for the advantage of the government and not for the advantage of the creditors. With such an uproar in congress os these proceedings will create, with certain congressmen embroiled therein, with presidential vetoes, as threatened by Secretary Gage, nnder angry discussion, it will happen that all business enterprises and funds and stocks will be disturbed, prides will fall, insolvencies will increase, and the re publicans will lose the congressional elections iq 1898 as disastrously ss did they in 1890, and beyond the hope of a favorable reaction in 1900, at which time, therefore, a Bryan democratic president and congress will be chosen Whether we are to have one of these resnlts political safety or the other political destruction depends entirely upon the course to be pursued by Secretary Gage, and those who are pressing him forward, namely, the gold standard league of New York and the monetary conference. How much Secretary Gage cares for the Republican party is not known. Whether President McKinley, whose promises of good fsith towards bimetallism are coming to a test, will stop his secretary, is not known. It is to be hoped he wilL Bnt no political situation has been clearer than the present one is, to sound eyes, since the Repnblican party began its marvelous career forty-tw- o years ago. There is a time for all things. There is a time to move and a time to keep still, and now is the time to so keep. It is simply absurd for the Rc publican party in this congress to affirmatively open the discussion and the bringing of yea and nay votes on currency legislation. We ought to await the progress of international bimetallism, the advent of business prosperity, and the filling of the treasury by the normal workings, soon to be seen, of tbe new tariff law. Shall we wait for these things or rush on to self-dstruction? President McKinley must decide. Will he act for hia people or for, his plutocrats? Upon his answer will depend the events of 1898. ed e (Signed) William EL Ciiaxdlib. December, 1897." Against Civil Service Kales. Boise, Ida., Dec. 21.
