A CANNERY.

Annually during the past ten years
or longer there has been talk Oh es-

Territory, and as regularly the talk mas

one or two occasions companies nave
been formed. but from lack of capiSsi
or other cause little or nothing IN
practical way has been done. In 'ne

brought in every year, from as far east

II &c observed that the usual talk about
establishing a cannery is INDUCED In
this spring. Let Us hope that 1t Will

Utah is the only fruit grow

miles in either direction. Not only
this but our fruit is recognized as equal
to any on the continent. 1t grows here
in abundance and of the choicest qoai-

fruit used, and actually bring in much
dried fruit. OF course, only Trial can
demonstrate whether or not cannery
will be paying enterprise. Such figures
and estimates as may be arrived at say
it will pay handsomely; with cheap
fruit at home and long distance railway
freights in our favor, and with com
munity favorably disposed towards
local enterprises and home productions,
it would seem that the business coulo

A GOOD RULE.

Five thousand men on the Chicago'
Milwaukee & St. Paul railway Rave
heen laid off by the company. not vol
nntarily but as an act Of economy and
self-protectien. The engineers and
svitchmen struck, and as the usual
number of trains could not be moved,
there was not employment for the
on1 men who have been laid of. Thus
d 600 or so 900 persons will be directly
affected by the strike, to say nothing OF
the injury that will be done to the bust
ness of the country by the temporary
suspension of traffic.
In this connection comes an interest
ing announcement from the officials OF
the road. It is that, if employees
shall not appear at their postss this
morning, prepared to work, they Will
never again be taken into the service
Of the company. 1t is to be hoped that
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1888-04-03

the "St. Paul' will have the courage
and stamina to make THIS
notice something more than a mere
threat; that it will stand by it through
all time. and for once teach men that
they cannot with impunity and without
cause, stop the traffic of a great railway.
It would be well, also, ii other railroads
would follow the example OF this one,
and give their employees to understand
iat a strike would mean q severance
of all connection between the strikers
and the company. The railways have
it in their power to put stop to this
thing of their employees striking &c
cause of some petty wh;m, or to COM
ply with the order OF some self
important boss who wants to show his
authority. If the companies will
do as the st. Paul proposes to
do, men will think twice before
leaving situations to which they
can never return. They will hesitate
before throwing up paying positions be-
cause somebody else has quarreled with
some other company over something
which does not concern the former.
The public will stand by road which
will adopt and enforce this rule. and
when men find themselves without en-
ployment AMI without popular sym
patty they will be more careful! how
they conduct themselves.

President Cleveland's wise, economic

States will reiterate, and the delegates

Without the Middleman,s AID.

Every morning there comes to the
house in which | live a fine hale, old
man, with the fresh scent of country
lanes about him, who brings an
abundant supply ofvegetables, of Il
quality one can only find in the most
expensive green groceries and fruit
stores. He makes q business of
serving the products of his little
market garden across the North
river to a choice list of customers in
certain apartment houses of the bet
ter order. He sells all that he can
deliver, and the prices he gets, while
reasonable enough to satisfy his
patrons, are sufficiently liberal to
compensate him handsomely There
are other men, notice, who make a
speciality of milk, eggs and other fresh
table commodities, which they deliver
after the same fashion. directly from
their farms or poultry yards. They
pay no tribute to n middleman, nor
are they under any expense for a
city shop. They begin by drumming
up customin good houses, and, as
they erv the best of material, are
not long in establishing a profitable
connection. After this it is plain
sailing with them.
The business of putting up pre-
serves and jellies seems also to be eX-
tensively followed by housewives
who seek their industry in much the
same way. Some of them advertise
in the family papers. The majority
employ a drummerto beatup custom
in town. Thefact that they can afford
the expense of advertisement or the
salary of an agent, and still make a
greater profit than if they sold their
products to the shops, may serve as
a slight hint of the proportions of
gain that fall to the middleman or
retailer. A man in Fordham who
has quite an extensive fruit farm
which, thanks to his passion for i'm
proving varities, produces some of
the finest fruit in the country, in
forms me that he now gets nearly,
three times as much for the product
of his orchard, which he retails him
self, than he did when he sold it to a
fruiterer. And still his customers get
it cheaper than they did from the
fruit shop.-Alfred Trumble in New
York News.

Life Of hen. Harrison.

By the Author OF Ben Jfur.
Gen. Lew Wallace we hear has re-
moved to Indianapolis, and is busily en-
gagged writing a biography of his old
friend, Gen. Ben. Harrison.
Rarely has s o happy a combination
been known as that resulting in the issue
of this work. Gen. Lew Wallace, known
the world over rs the author of ''Ben
Hur, is one of Gen. Harrison's lifelong
and trusted friends, and is also a distin-
guished soldier, a trained statesman, and
a diplomat of high national reputation.
His name as author gives at once the
assurance of q biography of extraordi-
nary merit.
His long and intimate acquaintance
with his distinguished subject will enable
him to prepare rapidly an authentic aud
deeply interesting biography.
His large experience in national and
international affairs fits him to treat un-
derstandingly and ably of General Har-
rison's superb record as a statesman, and
clearly to unfold the principles held by
him respecting the science of good gov
eminent, and the weighty issues at stake
in the present great contest.
Gen. Wallace at first declined this task
but upon the urgent solicitation of many
eminent men of the party, and Gen.
Harrison's assurance that everything
needful should be placed at his disposal,
so as to make it the strictly authentic,
and only authorized biography, he
yielded to the call, and has agreed to
complete the work for publication early
in Auoust

A HOrse-Race as a Moral Agen,

"You have heard stories of con-
science money, perhaps but l think [
never heard of the refunding of Dor
rowed' funds being due to a horse
race" said Mr.. W. H. Williams, of
the Union News company, to the New
York Evening Sun. Recently one
of our former agents called and
asked for a private conference.
When we were alone he said that he
had defrauded the company of $500,
and that he wished to return it. |
told him he was perfectly at liberty
to do so. Then, with native shrewd-
ness, he requested that no interest
should be charged on the loan
which was made when the system
was not as perfect as now. [ admit
ted that the face value of the loan
would be sufficient under the cir
cumstances and he laid down the
money. When a receipt had been
given him | ventured to ask what
had prompted him to restore
the funds. gathered from him that
he had several times had enough
money together to pay me, but that
being an insane lover of trotters, he
had invested the money in a horse
every time. Thus for five times he
bought a horse, and each one died.
1t looked like a dispersion of Provi-
dence, and finally, when for the sixth
time he secured the money, he came
and paid me. l hope his luck viii
change as his morals have"

Canned Goods.

The Grocers' Chronicle insists that
the fact that canned goods r ecooked
goods cannot be too widely known or
carefully remembered by users. They
are not put up in vessels from which
they are to be eaten when convenient
to consumers, but are only packed in
tins in order to preserve them. No
canned goods are guaranteed to keep
fresh and remain sound for any num-
Der OF days after being opened. When
opened the contents OF the tin should
be Immediately turned out and eaten
as soon as possible. If the food
must be kept at all, cover it up and
keep in a cool place, always, however,
turn out OF the original tin. The
liquor around Holsters, salmon,
and all vegetables, excepting toma-
toes it is desirable to strain off
and throw away. HOLSTERS ard
prawns are improved by be-
ing turned out into a sieve and rinsed
with clean cold water. Never on any
account add vinegar, sauce, or any
while they are in the tins, and never
leave SUCH mixtures To remain an
hours or two, if from forgetfulness it
is done.
All timed goods are put up as fresh
as it is possible to be, but unless corn
ed or sailed will not keep turned out
as freshly cooked goods will, and GER
tainiy not longer, as many thought.
lessly suppose or expect they will.
Sardines. if preserved in good oil, and
if of good quality, will be an excep-
ton; as long as the oil is good the fish
a be kept in the tins. but seven
days is long enough to trust these be-
fore eating. Consumers should not
buy larger packages OF canned goods
than they can consume quickly; if
they should, most of the fish and
meats can be ported after recooking,
sauces and seasoning being used. II
the nose and eyes are properly used
it is as impossible to partake of an
unsound tin of canned food OF any
kind as to partake of bad meat, fish,
or vetegables from a shop.

Lucky ROAlOn.

Boston Mass) Record, July 3.
The latest of fortunes ~favorites to re-
ceive a large sum of money from a very
small investment are Messrs. Moore,
Spaulding & Co.. the ~well-known whole
sale dealers in millinery goods at II and
10 Summer street. Messrs. Moore,
Spaulding q Co., held one-twentieth of
ticket 80, 443, which drew the first CAPT
tai prize of $500, 900 in the June drawing
of The Louisiana State Lottery. When
questioned about their good fortune by
a Record reporter a member of the firm,
illustrating his well known character for
modesty, said that he did not care to
talk about it, but the reporter learned
that on Friday last Mr.. Spaulding re-
ceived from Adams Express Co. q draft
on the Maverick bank for $15, 900 which
had been promptly forwarded upon re-
ceipt of the winning ticket at New Or
leans. The firm it is said have from time
to time made small investments of this
kind but never had quite such good luck
as in the present case, when they have
found themselves among the number
who, purchasing tickets through the
New England agency, have received over
$4,000 in cash within q month.

FIGHTING the Fire Damp.

This mine, while one Of the largest,
was also one OF the most dangerous
in the valley. In order to keep the
workings supplied with pure air, in
quantity sufficient to render harmless
the explosive gases released by open
ing the coal seams, an immense fan
had been constructed which, during
every minute that it was in action,
drew forth from the mine over two
hundred thousand cubic feet Of inn
pure air. Even with this great air
current, there were very dangerous
parts of the mine. requiring the ut
most vigilance from the miners. To
hear of some miner or laborer firing
the gas IN his chamber and being
burned thereby was a matter Of al
most weekly occurrence. In pits
OF this character, where is a
plentiful air current, it is
often a custom with miners to
'.fre" the gas in their working places
before a quantity sufficient to render
its combustion dangerous accumu-
lates. When this is done the gas will
take fire with a noise not unlike that
made in lighting a common gas Jet.
There is such an excess Of air that the
explosion OF the gas is very weak and
harmless. The flame, often three Or
four feet deep, will travel along the
uneven roof, showing beautiful colors
varying from a deep dark blue to a
brilliant crimson; and in it shine
stars OF dazzling white light, showing
that fine article OF coal dust suspend
ed in the air are burning in the great
heat of the gas. Sometimes this flame
will travel close up against the roof.
slowly to and fro, several times, until
all the gas has been burned away.
When the flame dies out the burnt
gases 1.-THE "black" or latter damp"),
being heavier than the air, fall to the
floor. So the coal-miner is ever ex-
posed to two great dangers: the first,
that OF being burned; the second, that
OF being suffocated after he has es-
capped the fire.

Two Newly Made Widows.

From the Boston Post.
1t is said that some of the chief
railroads in the country employ spec
ial persons to inform the bereaved
family when an employee has been
killed. Considering that every year
a small army of men meet their death
on the track the statement is not i'll
credible. An old railroad man at
Reading, who has discharged this
painful office, gives the following
among other experiences:
sit vas only a few days ago that |
went to a home and found the wife
chatting and laughing with a neigh
boris wife while she was at work
among her rOse-bushes and flowers.
She hadn't been married very long.
| first asked whether her husband
vas at home. She stared at me, be-
came white as a piece of chalk, then
shrieked and fell among the plants.
[ helped to carry her into the house.
Giles dead; my husband is dead,
[ know he has been killed.
"'Who told your [ asked, when
she revived.
"No one. I only thought so. is it
true?'
at was easy then to finish my
GRAND.
II once called on a woman to tell
her her husband had been killed by
striking against an overhead bridge.
This was three years ago, near Phil
adelphia. The wife curled up her lip
and replied" IF he's been killed, hea-
ven has revenged me. He abused me
long enough. He'll abuse no more
women now.
"That was the easiest job in my
line l ever had. Five minutes later
the woman was in Mysteries and
tears"
