Show TH. T R.U licatlons from Truth, because the paper would not support the Kearns-BrucJohnson municipal ticket. He further complained that he considered Truths remarks about the Kearns-BrucJohnson boodle convention a personal insult to himself, he being a delegate to that convenlton. By the diversion of business from Truth he expected to serve his masters, the Kearns crowd, by forcing this paper to support them and their nefarious schemes. Truths object In bringing the present proceedings is to find out whether the law permits any jackanapes who happens to be county clerk to use his office to make political capital for himself and his friends. It creates a monopoly, enables the paper which makes an arrangement with him to charge whatever prices it pleases for publications and the public must pay. At this time the Kearns organ lias the inside track with James, although he favors the Deseret News to an extent that he considers sufficient to save his soul, well, from purgatory, we will say. Truth wants no special privileges. A fair field and no favors is all it asks, and seeks no odds from anybody. 9 SALARY RAISED. e o Look out for sudden changes in the weather.

The use of paint brushes Is of great antiquity; but as late as the fifteenth century it was customary to apply varnish by smearing it on with the fingers or with a bit of sponge, as the varnishes then used were too viscid to flow well with a brush and cculd be put on more thinly and evenly with the fingers. .This practice was used in the earliest times of which there is any record.

Mr. James has assumed to dispose of probate and other legal notices for publication irrespective of the wishes of the interested parties vho pay for the publication. If the statutes give him any such authority it is high time it was known, so that the next legislature may correct the nbuse, for abuse it is.
