The many beautiful homes scattered over our
country are evidences of very high order OF
refinement and of the thoughtful care and gener
GUS provision made by people for the comfort
and happiness of the living. While we are admit
ted to be in advance of all Others in scientific
research and everything pertaining to the interest
of the living we are yet very far behind other
nations, and especially the ancients, in providing
suitable receptaces for the repose OF the body after
death. This is not owing to our Indifference for

the dead, and none have made more liberal pro-
vision for their repose; but anything in connection
with this subject has been consuered disagreeable
and in consequence of this we have shrunk from
consideration of this subject until forced to pro-
vide receptacle resting place for departed
loved one.

the catacombs of their buried cities, now exhib

one, in which to place the sacred remains of the
loved one.
These facts have awakened much interest of late,
and scientific societies the press, well as the pub
lie, at present earnestly considering this ques-
ton from not only sanitary but a human senti-
ment
We instinctively shrink from the thought of
having the remains of loved ones, consecrated by
the tears of bereaved friends placed in these COM
mon wood iron receptacles, which will 50 soon
decay, admitting the loathesome objects which in
fest the grave. These things, regarded either from
Christian sanitary standpoint, have created a
demand for something better something that can
be furnished at price that can be placed within
the reach of the rich and poor alike;-something
that is not susceptible to the influences of the acid
of decomposition the alkali of the earth; some
thing, in fact, which will preserve and protect tn
remains of our loved and admit Of their dsine
terment without at any time shocking the sensibil
lities of the living
Many attempts have been made to construct
burial cases from metal and other substances, but
they have always been found very defective, in that
they retain the fluids of the human body and soon
corrode and decay, permitting the escape of nox-
ious gases to pollute the atmosphere and endanger
the health of the living.
Some in their despair, advocate the return to
the ancient practice of cremation, but this TO the
Christian world seems unsatisfactory, If not revolt
ing.
Many eminent prelates, scientists and others, at
meeting lately held in the city OF Buffalo, advo-
Gated the entombment of our dead in imperisha-
BILE cement, and this has awakened the thoughtful
consideration and the inventive genius OF our peo
pie, which has resulted in the plan proposed by
these gentlemen, being adopted, and casket en-
bodying these, as well other important princi
pies is now being manufactured in this city, from
material known Artificial Marble, that is made
from imported cement.
This like many other valuable improvements has
aroused the active opposition of the old style casket
manufacturers, and they, from self-interest, use
every in their power to keep our caskets out
of the market and in many instances have persuaded
the undertaken to assist them in their efforts deem
ing it an encroachment on their long established
monopoly.

WANTS PRIVATE ENTERPRISE

I. Z. Henry, the well known Denver
capitalist, takes up the question Of reser-
Volrs in the arid region and agrees sub
stantially with Mr.. Flower.
The only real justification for a direct
expenditure by the government in the
construction OF IRRIGATION enterprises, such
as reservoirs and otherwise he says, lis
that it seems to be the fashion among the
representatives in the different states and
In different parts of the country to get a
grab at the public treasury, and anyone
who fails to bring home a portion of the
grand grab is supposed to have been left
and to have failed in the purpose for
which he was elected. But that it is
wise and right, and that it is in harmony
with the truest conception OF the spirit OF
our government, why, | deny it.
The fact is that private capital is ade,
quate and already provided for the con.
struction of the most expensive irrigation
projects that have been contemplated any.
where in the West This position | have
taken for a long time, and on several oc.
casions | have made substantially the
same statements. | have said several
times that to suppose that private capita
or corporate capital could not do that wa
ridiculous, in consideration of the fac
that | know of no irrigation enterprises

, 1889-04-17

vate interests or private investments could
control these matters. 1t would, by the
way, cost the government a great deal
more to build a reservoir than if 1t were
a private enterprise. But suppose the
dam breaks? Would the government
have a man there competent to superin-
tend the work and operate it? Would
the government provide for the proper
maintenance of these ~rcservOirs2 Ifthere
is a break and great, sweeping damage is
caused, the question OF damages at once
comes up. Would the party having a
claim of this kind have his delegation use
their influence to lobby a private bill for
relief through congress? And how are
we to be assured that the ward politicians
and not men especially trained and COM
petent will be selected for superintendcnts
of these enterprises? These enterprises
depend moro completely upon the success
full administration of their affairs and the
matter of maintenance and especially the
operation, than almost any other enter
priscs. Shall the civil service apply in
the selection OF superintendents, or shall
the positions be parceled out to persons
who may have been beneficial in private
states successfully operated on?
Il can foresce hat if any such policy is
to be pursued by the government, COM
binations of capital will purchase large
tracts and proceed to lobby through con
gress appropriations for irrigation pro-
iects, which would add to.the powerful
interests besieging the public treasury,
and oon the matter of surplus, which is
troubling our politicians at this time,
would be a mere historical reminiscence.

SOME CHANGES.

What's the matter with Pat Sullivan
except that he is a Democrat While
there may be men who are more efficient
there are non who are more faithful.
There is no man on the police force whose
personal habits are better, or who could
be relied upon to more faithfully perform
his duty. His removal is simply a mat
ter of politics. No charges have been
made against him, and he is relieved
from duty only to make room for a man
who is not a whit more competent, but
who happens to vote a different ticket
This sort of thing may help along the
party machine, but we doubt very much
if it will do much good to the police
force.

Mayor Riner last evening boldly threw
down the gauntlet to City Treasurer
Bergman by nominating for his office
Mr.. A. d. Kelley. Judge B ergman has
held the office for a little over fourteen
years. During all that time he has been
the mo thorough politician in Laramie
county, if not the territory. While he
put in heavy strokes for himself it was
always noticeable that he worked heartily
for his whole ticket. For many years he
held u%ndisputed sway in the Republican
party OF the city and county, but latterly
Younger men have sprung up, with vault
ing political ambitions. These formed an
association which they called the Young
Mems Republican club" They aspircd
to rule and pretty soon clashed with Berg
man. The city treasurer has always
looked upon the organization with undis-
tests got way with it. AS may be i'm
agined the relations existing between
Bergman anl many of the lung ele-
ment Of his party have not been of the
most cordial character. The strong
est political supporters OF Mayor
Riner have been these young men. Many
of them, it is said, have demanded the
decapitation of Bergman. This event
was expected at the reorganization of the
council, but weeks and months passed
without anything being done. The long
delayed event has come at last. What
Bergman is going to do about it, is now
N of the most interesting of
municipal inquiries. That he will
submit tamely to the situation is not
for a to be expected. Ho says
himself he will not and one of
the ~livelicst struggles ever known in
the history of the tow is now set on foot.
Bergman will take the matter into
the courts il necessary and from present
appearances Mr.. Kelley will only be city
treasurer in name, at least for several
months to come. Bergman is a doughty
antagonist and the mayor or city council
which get away with him will have to get
up in the morning and keep r%ustling bard
all day. Even at this writing the pools
are selling heavily in favor OF Bergman.
