The Sliinitcrrr.
In the catalogue of vices tit to can
he none more ruinous to the, social
commonwetltn than slander in its
various form. The original plan of the
Universe was not to have any slander
ers horn, arid if they were accidentally
created tho statutes of the higher
courts all read they should ho put to
death as soon as discovered. The
church iu its immensity should not
sanction auv p'uns which would iu the
slightest degree have a tendency to
lengthen tlu;ir lives or add to their
happiness. The moralist theoretri'jay
heaps curses upon his head and all
good people proclaim eternal and un
relenting hatred for his associates and
his alienors. A child in its infancy
and iunocency can he reproved and
forgiven for tho greatest wrong.
Murderers expiate their wickedness by
sudden almoin olid everlasting dis
grace of meivory and family. Thieves
that break in and rob one of his gold
or treasurers and end liy arson, find at
tho hands of their fellow men a day of
reckoning.
Put our slanderer, this social leper,
this leacheroua parasite that creeps up
from th mire and tilth nnd spits his
slime upon the fair nanle of innocent
porsons, this wily serpent, that laughs
at their downfall and makes a mockery
of honor stiil goes unpunished;
What ho lacks in reason ho imputes.
Creates thn circumstances of his slory
for a purpose and to gain Ids urposes
and subserve his schemes, ho willfully
and maliciously Hps. Being detected,
like the wiley tierpent ho carefully and
cautiously coils around his victim and
under cover of hypocrisy and dissimu
lation breathes poison into its lift) and
hopes. Ho is a moral mistake; worse
than that man who being too wicked
to swear cursed dod and died, . See
him as lie sneuks along tho street after
dark to avoid those whose character ho
lias iuestioned, anil trembles lest he
liouUI meet that dilin whom he has
injured. Ho is known to his associates
us an unmitigated liar, a man without
the rudiments of conscience or a princi
ple of hoiior. He does not remain
long in one place, his success like the
adept in ledgerdeinaiu depends upon
his deceit. He has no honorable am
bitioii. He spends his lifo in impover
ishing petty schemes among those
whom, by virtue of his relations lie is
brought in contract with. The years
pass by and age adds to his adroitness,
and When at last his mission is ended
and he has descended into purgatory
and has taken ids seat on the right
hand of Satan, his acquaintances read
his history iu his epitaph: "Created
lived had an ambition tc be a moral
mistake, a low small man; succeeded
died without conscience, aged about
thirty. Ho leaves no one t8 mourn
his departure. He was noticed by
few, and tho world is belter that lie is
out of it."
"Ever since this valley was first
settled," says he Salt Lake Tribune,
"salt has been collected along the
shores cf the hike for domestic and
mechanical purpose Salt works have
been established at various places, hut
the most of it has been colluded in
sloughs, where by evaporation ii de
posits on tho ground. About all the
silt now collected is for the use of
silver niills,wjiich' consume about 19,000
tons per annum, as follows: Utah uses
about 5,000 tons, Idaho 3,000, Mon
tana C.00O, and Colorado 5,000 tons,
drawn from the lake. The price,
loaded on the cars, averages about four
to five dollars per ton,"
Percy Fisks, proprietor and pub
lisher of the Dallas' Itemizer, we learn
has fallen heir to a large estate in
Pennsylvania, left him by the death of
sonfe relatives. Percy will go to Penn
sylvania i'n a short time, to look after
his iuterests there and trill prol
ably lease his office in Dallas to other
parties.
Inalist of "Millionaire Senators"
printed iri an Eastern paper the follow
ing appears: "Dolph, of Oiegon, has
the reputation of being worth $100,000
or more." He hasn't any such reputa
' tion here if the assessment roll be
taken as a gauge.
S..mrthing Like Cofftt.
About twenty yers ago there wai
an editorial genius in Oregon named I
P, Hall and the craft, owing to his
gigantic proportions, gave hint tha
name of ' Long Primer Hall." By this
name the big-brained, big bodied ana
big-souled quill driver was known all
along the coast. , "Long Primer's be
setting vice was a too ardent love of
the ardent-ho would seldom sit down
to his breakfast colb-e until half a pint
of old rya had opened thn way for it
and , then, of courn Ahb ' cofree was
always insipidly weak. He was riln?
ning a paper at some interior town in
Oregon. Ho "bached," and the office
boy was cook, and mischevioui enough,
for the appellation given a printer's
apprentice. The "devil" thought one
morning he would stop ' Long Prim
er's" growling by making his coffee,
strong enough, and with hat object in
viow ho dropped a plug of tobacco into
the boiling pot. He then took a good
position at tin open door for escape, it
n icessary, while ho watched the result".
The editorial giant first fastidiously
tasted a saucer full; and then emptying
tho contents of thn cup and refilling it
he smacked his lips and said, "now
there's sense in that tint's coffee." v .
Profnubir Fruit Growing..
Ten or twelve y.'ars ago Louis Logs
den bought twenty acres of land near
Porterville and went to work setting
but an orchard. Ho now has fourteen
acres devoted to fruits of various kinds;
all of which ii well cultivated and well
tended. When in Tuhre recently ho
Informed ua that for six years past the,
gross income from tHese fourteen acres;
has at ho timo been IcJs than $3000 per
annum. His health has not been very
good for some timo, and, thinking a
change to the seacoast would lib bene-,
ficial, ho has leased his orchard for five,
years for f 70:) cash per annum. He
stated to a friend in towii that he had.
saved enough during tiiose years 16
that he could live on the interest b!
his investments without touching the
$700 rental for his orchard. This niati
has ucquired a com potency In twelve,
years and has retired at middle age to
pass his remaiiiHig days in quietude..
All this was done with fourteen acres
of fruit trees and less than five acres
of alfalfa, and he had only capital,
bnough to purchase his land and buy ft
team when he commenced. Ourartea-,
ian belt alone offers 8000 just such
opportunities as Mr. Logsden enjoyed.
A correspondent of thn the London.
Craphio with tho Nile expedition has
leirned from a refugee how tlie. Mahdl.
raitei funds. From time to time he
appears before his people and says hb
has been commanded to part with all
his goods, everything he possesses iii
short, must go to the public treasury,'
or to the "Bait et Mai" (charity box)..
Proffers are madu on all sides to savi
him from stripping h'i's household, but.
all of these he resolutely declines, say
ing: "The command is for me, hoi
you." By and by their turn comes;,
when the Mahdi says ho has a com. 1
m'unication from "El Hadra" that such'
a ono is to' give all he has to the "Baii,,
w .... .... j.i
el Mai." They have seen the Prophet
himself complying with' these direo-.
tions of tho "Presence," and how dare
any one else disobey? Accordingly,,
making a virtuo of necessity, goods
and slaves all find their way to the
"charity box," otherwise the Prophet's
chest. All disputes about goods 01
betrothals the Mahdi quickly settles by
appropriating the goods to thn publio
treasury and the women to his harem.
He courts tho poor and gives them
free license to plunder, and snubs tha
sheiks. . . . . . . ...
