He Is Raking in the Coin of the Real m from the Britishers, Who Like the '"'Wild West" Show. Salt Lake, Feb. 11. Never be fore in the history of the territory has a political campaign been so bitterly fought as the election of municipal officers in this city. The question at issue has been neither republican or democratic suprem acy, but Morraonism versus asti- Mormonism. The last election for memberB of the legislature, which resulted in the liberals or anti- Mormons carrying the city by a majority of 41, has caused every voter to come out and work to the utmost, the liberals to again carry the city, and the people's party, or Mormons, to prevent a defeat fiom which they probably could never recover. The interest is so intense that the legislature on Saturday atliourned over to luesday. The citv from one end to the other has been "decorated with flagB and bunting, as though it were a national holiday, and during the past week torchlight processions, with thousands ot men, paraded the streets nightly. SKY-ROCKETS AND MARCHING' MEN. The campaign really began last June,and has been growing intense ever since, ending on the part of the liberals by an immense torch light parade Friday night, in which there were 4000 men. Illumina tions and lire works made the city a blaze of light Saturday night, the Mormon parade here then closing the demonstration, which was much the snme as the other, but with only 3000 in line, much lesB decoration and illumination, but an elegant display of fire works. The campaign has been a great political educator, something needed here and never before had to any extent. The Mormon temple, which has been bnildint! for over 30 years, has red lights burning irom the lower story to-night and the scene is picturesque. At noon the returns were re ceived at Liberty hcadquarts from 22 wards, giving a total vote of 4()fi.! Gentiles, 2335 ; Mormons, 227S. About lrtilf of the vote was polled at that time. The Gentiles new claim that they will carry the city by 1400 majority. WHOLE FAMILY MUKDEREO. Four ISloody Corpsen Found on Oklahoma IMains. ' Wichita, Feb. 11.

Sinter were skating on the lake at Rinne watcr this afternoon when the ice gave way ami the childreniere precipitated into the water. Tlieir shouts were heard by the parents, who lived near by.

KILLED II EK SISTER. Tied the Rahe to Cow'm Tail and Drove It to Death. I'aius, Feb. 11. A horrible crime was committed 'iu a provincial town to-day. A girl of 10 years was walk ing the fields with her little tiister. aged 2. The baby grew fretful and the elder girl lost patience with it and tied the poor thing to the tail of a cow that was grazing in the r asture. Then hu hustled the auimal into a gallap. The tiny victim uttered piercing shrieks which crew fainttr as the cow galloped madly on. The girl went quietly home and related her adventure gleefully.

The San Francisco steamer Oregon will go on the dry dock Wednesday for repairs and a general overhauling. The Santa Kosa lelt for Portland and Astoria yesterday morning loaded down with freight and pas sengers. She also carried away a large amount of mail for Oregon and the East. The Walla Walla left the Broadway wharf this morn ing for Victoria and Puget Sound ports. The postal authorities have come to their senses and decided to send the San Francisco mails to Port land by the regular otcamers. The experiment of sending them by a revenue cutter was disastrous ht all ways. Not only were two or three days' time lost but the expense turned out to be actually greate. than the sum demanded by the steamers for the service. , ISKAZIL IS ALL RltillT, Fonsoca Is Loyal aud Ilcfuscs the Cro n.

The road is repaired so that trains can go over it, and c expect Pratt will make good headway from the latter point to Cow Creek canyon The exact situation in Cow Creek Canyon is not known, as the wires are still overburdened with busi ness."

From (.rave to Gay in Western Editorial Life. We extract the following from t'e last i st-ue cf the Arizona Kicker, which was only a halt eheet, and whiue seemed to have been printed on a cheese-pres6: Explanatory We owe our readers au apo ogy for the shar.e and appear ance of the Kicker this week, and shall proceed to give it. Last Sunday wc went over to Silver Rend to see the boys and rake in a few subscrip tions. Our office was lelt in charge of a chap just from the cat who clainie'.l to be George AlLe.d Town scud. A3 we had never met George we did not feci like calling the stran ger a liar. We intended to return Tuesday morning, but in this couutry man pro poses and mules and other thing3 buck against him. The infernal, lop eared, stiff-legged, pig-headod, limb spavined beast which we rode a tit counterpart of our contemporary down the - street threw us nine times in going thirteen miles, and we arrived at the Rend badly used up. e hadn't yet raked in a dollar when Lew Smith, a plug-ugly whom we as sisted to run out of our town four weeks ago, sounded his war-cry and began to encourage the Benders to hang us. M'ist of 'em were on a druuk that day, and the proposition at once found tavor. Under the pretense that we, as editor, publisher, proprietor and city editor of the greatest weekly in the west and which runs as an annex, but under the same roof, a grocery, butcher shop, feed store, shoe store, hardware and cutlery, had been seek ing to breaV down the social barriers of the mighty west,, they hunted up a rope and selected a tree. We ap pealed, but it only added to their de sire. We tried to argue, but they wouldn't have it. Our editoral per son was laid hold of and hustled along to a rope dangling from a limb, aud as we looked over the crowd and failed to catch a sympathetic eye we kit that our time had come. Ti'e boys were white about oni j tiling. Drunk as they were, thty had DIS ATCHES sense enough to realize that, a great .editor could not wind up his earthly affairs iu a satisfactory manner under fifteen minutes, and on motion of a half-breed, who once succeeded in borrowing half a dollar of us, the time was increased to twenty . V e wanted to argue the case, but it was no go. We started in on a speech, but they whooped us down. By the vime thai we got down to business five of twenty minutes had fled. T" T .1 1 , a ... b I n. ,tfm tiA UUI CU11VI1M . uaw assisted at several amateur executions. We bad always supposed that if the crowd wete satisfied the victim was bound to be. It never seemed much of an effort for him to let go of earthly matters, and we nave sometimes wondered why more of them didn't com ? forward and ask to be palled to a limb. Our ideas nnderwent a great change as we cat on a meat-box under a dangliog rope, while the minutes hurried away like a jack rabbit taking the lead of a prairie fire on a windy day. Any man who believes he cad do business under such circumstances is mistaken. He feels restless and unsettled, and his . mind seems to be distributed over acres of space. It was only after we bad lost twelve minutes of our . time fooling around that we started in on our last will and testament, and we hadn't written. three lines of that before we suddenly recollected that we , were without a blood relative on earth. At to leav ing the Kicker and its annex to any galoot in town was not to be thought of, and we finally made out a bill of tale to that individval known aa William of the HilL who has several times appeared in oar town and at tempted to run the city government with a, broncho and two revolver. We didn't expect him to. maintain its high literary standard . and great moral excellence, but we knew he'd kill the postmaster and make a sieve of our contemporary the first week of his editorial career. When time was up the noose was placed over our head and tightened under our chin, ard it admonished us to observe the apparant enjoyment of the crowd- They seem to feel in aa good spirits as an army horse turned out to buffalo grass, and their im- I patience to make a pcuJuIum of our body was another queer lealure ot t i:e con yention . We had just been draw u off oar feet, and our editorial ideas were beconiing rapidly mixed, when a lot of passing cow-drivers happened along aud broke up the candy pull on the ground that they were waiting to hang us the first time wc came up there. We were saved to be hung at Phanix if we ever bhow up there. We are just able t ci a I around. We have chills, sore liirn.it, piin in the back, headache and & general feel ing that wc don't care a cqioer which party elects the next Prudent. e apologize for the appearance of thiols this week, aud promise not to te lynched aaiu it in our power to avoid it.

By the flickering glare of bis torch he saw that he had trod uptn tbe reptile, but for tunately bad planted his ieot on its neck just back of the head, and, though it folded its slimy coils areund his ankle and struck out with its fangs with lightning-like rapidity, it was unable to turn it head to do mischief.
