in three equal yearly installments, draw
ing interest at the rate of per cent. per
annum from date of completion of pur-
chase until paid" The amount of error
in this part of the report is truly surpris-
ing when the time consumed in preparing
this report is considered, and the compo-
sition of the committee is also considered.
The committee may have waited upon
Mr.. Kingsbury for FORMS sake, but the
committee err most grossly when they
say that Mr.. Kingsbury is 'sthe owner of
the lands and water privileges in ques-
tion." Mr.. Kingsbury merely holds ''the
lands and water privileges in question"
in trust for the Church of Jesus Christ of
Latter-day Saints.
Two weeks and half before the COM
mittee made their report on this matter,
the DEMOCRAT exposed the steal, and told
the exact price that was to be paid for
"the lands and water privileges in ques-
tion," and that price was the same as
that which this precious joint committee
found that Mr.. Kingsbury would take.
We ask how it could be known that the
committee would report that they could
secure this property for $4,000?
Because the whole thing was cut and
dried before the Mayor even sent his
communication to the City Council, and
this we can prove; and we challenge the
Mayor, or any member of the City Coun-
Gil, or any man, woman or child in Salt
Lake City to deny it. And this commit
tee appear SO wondrous wise, and seem to
have such deep insight into financial
matters and the future needs Of the city,
and would make people believe that they
are so anxious for the welfare of the citi-
zens! The Mayor and City Council of
Salt Lake City are truly noble and honest
men, and never thought enters their
minds, that is, their official minds, but
that is calculated to benefit their masters,
the taxpayers (?), whose servants they
are. If the wicked in heart think that
big steal has been perpetrated, let the
wicked in heart perish.

THE MEDICAL METROPOLIS.
Philadelphia Losing Her Former
Pre.eminence.

For many years past Philadelphia has
been famous as a training-place for doc
tors, and has believed herself to be the
medical metropolis of the United States.
Her schools are justly famed and some of
the instructors in them have acquired a
worldwide celebrity. Nevertheless, so
far as mere numbers go, she is now ex-
celled by both Chicago and New York.
Of the total number of medical students
in the country, New York now has 14.9,
Chicago 11.3, Philadelphia 1913, Cincin-
natl 81, and St. Louis 4.3 per cent. Of
graduates the New York schools have
furnished 13 per cent, the Chicago schools
1878 per cent, the Philadelphia schools
81 per cent, the Cincinnati schools 6.4
per cent, and the st. Louis schools 5 per
cent. These figures are furnished by the
Chicago NeUs. They need explanation,
for the Chicago schools have now much
larger number of students than ever be-
fore, and it is hard to see where so large
a percentage OF Chicago graduates come
from. The increase in attendance at the
Chicago schools in seven years has been
40 per cent. In 1877 Chicago was out
ranked not only by New York, but by
Philadelphia and Cincinnati also.
According to the same authority, the
total number of medical students in the
United States has increased in seven
years from $500 to IL, ,779-nearly AZ per
cent. Students of the regular" school
have increased from 1000 to 1O,S5S-
nearly 81 per cent. Students of homeo-
pathy have increased about Is per cent,
and eclectic students about the same. In
Chicago, however, the regular" school
has gained only "a per cent, while the
homeopathic has gained As per cent.
That city has two large homeopathic
schools and twice as many homeopathic
students as any other city. Cincinnati
has the most eclectic students, followed
by Chicago and New York Philadelphia,
Chicago, New York and Baltimore have
schools for the medical education of
women only, and rank in the order
named.
1t appears, therefore, that the honors
are divided. While Philadelphia is the
allopathic headquarters, Chicago the
homeopathic and Cincinnati the eclectic,
New York has the most schools of all
sorts and the most students. Chicago
may be, as its inhabitants confidently
predict, the medical metropolis of the
future, but New York holds that place
now, and will probably continue to hold
it while longer.-NeW York Mail and
