By fall, 12 1-2c Per Week THE LEGISLATIVE SESSION. HE session of the Legislatare is nearing its end. According to the State constitation members are paid for sixty days and no more, and as 8 result a legislative session is not usually prolonged much beyoud that limit, This provision limiting the time is a wise one. It does not prevent an indefinite prolongation in any emergency, but it makes euch an should arise every man now serving in Sacramento would be found at his post of duty regardless of salary. Buta serious emergency would be needed, A vast amount of time is Wasted and bundreds of useless bills introduced during a legislative session, These are {inevitable accompanim:>-nts of the American system. Bat there are always grains of wheat among the chaff and the winnowing process brings them to light. Worthless and corrupt measures and worthless and corrupt men make their appearance at the Legislature, bat in that body as elsewhere, ‘the better men and the better measures ultimately prevail. It would be asad outlook for the State if this were not eo. Mistakes are made, for even legislators are fallible, bat these mistakes are not as numerous as they are often represented to be, Legislators, even if dishonest by inclination, are well aware that their constituents will not endorse them if convicted or even suspected of corruption and are compelled to take an honest course, Bat even with all the chances of error, with all its faults, the biennial Legislatare is a wise institation. it is a constant reminder to the people that they have a voice in the government, and it aids in giving to the American that independence of spirit and character for which he is noted the world over. Perhaps a wise and bnevolent despotiem, in which every public need is provided for, would be the moat comfortable form of government, bat it would recult in @ disastrous enfeeblement of the people. The Legislature is by no means a perfect institution, bat it is certainly a most potent factor in the political education of the people and is one of the many causes leading to American eupremacy. * 44n,4443646 WASHING DAY BY LAW. BILL bes been introduced in the Utah Legislatare inaugurating eo new holiday. Its name is “Health Day,” and the first Monday in October, should the bill become a law, will not be looked forward to with that degree of pleasure with which people anticipate a day when there is 8 cessation from business. In fact, “Heattt Day” will be a thoroughly trying day—washing dey in good earnest; and the old verse about there “being no luck upon a washing day” can be well applied to “Heaith Day.” On this Monday everybody must be up to their elbows in soapsuds and says so, be down upon your knees, scrubbing and washing, or else pay a fine of ¢50. Theaters will bave to. be disinfected, also public halls and, in fact, every place frequented by the people. In case of anybody neglecting to perform thie duty, a fine of $50 is imposed. Salt a Sa should this bill pass, would indeed prove a cheerfal place on the first Monday of next October. As Cleanliness is rather the rule in Utah, the introduction of the bill seems superfluous. However, the measure is meeting with much favor and there are some who profess to think that the bill is & wiee One. AN HONEST MAM. pany.

PASSED AAT, —— Another old Resident Called. to the Great Spirit Land, The shadow of death has again fallen across the threshold of an otherwise happy bome and metamorphosed those domiciled there intoa state of gloom and sorrow which time alone can not efface. . -Mrs. Aitken, one of the oldest resi dents of this city, passed peacefully from the worries of this life to mansions prepared above at 8 o’clock this morning. She had been ailing for some time, the ravages of old age havlog finally undermined the system of as fine a constitution as it Ts God’s g°0d will to bless his chosen with. The cammer suns and wintry blasts of four score and ten years had combined to whiten the locks on her noble head, yet through all the calms and gales she remained faitbfal to the orthodoxy of ber principles. A true Christian woman of a bright and cheerful dis: position and amiable to a fault the good woman readily made frieude of sll tbose whom she came in contact with and held their affection to the last, and it will be with the deepest feelings of regret and sorrow that they bear of the aged lady’s death. Deceased was a native of Scotland, in which far-away couutry she grew to Sweet womunbood and was married there to the husband whom ‘death ‘had Claimed in this country many years ago. In 1850 she left her bonnie land te join him here. The vogage across the foamy sea ovcupied the greater part of eight montis, since which time she bas resided continuously here and raised a family. Mrs. Aitken. was aged 91 years, 5 months and 10 days. She leaves two daughters, Mra. James Monroe of this city and Mrs, Robert Moore of Mo= desto, besides a large number of graudcbildren and. great-grandchildren to mourn her loss. The date of tha funeral has not. been yet decided upou, but will probably take place Friday. Should be Stopped. The principal streets of Nevada City have been the scene of 80 mapy scraps at night lately that our citizens have vome to the conclusion it is about time that a stop should be put to the practice. Not only do the “would-be toughs” bruise themelves up, but the foul oaths which come from their coutsminated—tips' grate harshly on the ears of respectable people. Locking up one or more of the eerappers over night and giving them their freedom in the morning after they have sobered ap, altbough done ina spirit of kindness, has no effect, and the time has arrived when ‘they should be brought before the bar of justice and taught a Jessop that they will not soon forget.

There have been. sensational develOpments occurring on the Hisbrouck; MclIotyre and Kernick property at Gold Mountain, The pay streak has been opened up for fourteen feet, and shows assays running from $80 to $800.

Five men are now working on the ledge, and it will not be many days before sufficient depth is attained to satisfactorily determine the extent of tue new strike.
