Never find fault because news
paper fails to give every scrap of
news SO long as you take no pains
to give the editor information. The
average editor isn't medium or
reader, but he gets his news
as the milkman gets his milk-by
pumping. This is true especially Of
that class of items known as person
ais. Rightly they are not apuffery,' u
but simply personal mention for
the information of local readers
and those having friends and rela.
tives visiting them should always
let the local editor know it and he
will be glad to give the proper no.

worth printing. put it in the way Of

BASIS OF A FORTUNE.

The following item appeared in our
local columns on the 18th instant, and it is
amusing, to say the least, in view of the
professions of some of the so-called philan-
thropists who are trying to purchase the
city water works:
WITcHER JONES returned from Denver with
his family and is now a citizen of Salt Lake and
good luck turned up to meet him. While cross
ing Main street he found a horseshoe, which he
picked up, and would not part with it for the
world, as he believes that it will bring him the
much coveted waterworks. Several years ago
while walking the streets of San Francisco he
came across a horseshoe and he had scarcely
nailed it up on his office until he heard of a
very ricn strike in his mine that was the basis
of his great fortune.
We are inclined to believe that the pur-
chase of the waterworks would be more
than the ''basIs of his good fortune" if
Mr.. JONES should succeed in his efforts.
1t would be fortune given to him by the
city council. There is one little thing to be
considered, however, and that is that
neither Mr.. JONES nor any other man will
get the water running into the city's pipes
without a law suit that will not stop this
side of the supreme court of the United
States, and even then the chances are that
the people who have been robbed of. their
property by reform city council, will
combine and organize another company for
the purpose of supplying themselves with
water. We would sooner pay double for
our water than purchase that which had
been stolen from us, and we are confident
that there are many persons in the city who
feel as we do in this matter.

STREET RAILWAY TRACKS.

The two city railway companies have
come into collision again. Both have been
granted the right to lay tracks and run cars
along First East street north of the Eagle
gate, and thence east on First There is
really room for but one track. The Salt
Lake company laid its track some time
ago, and on Wednesday the Rapid Transit
company undertook to put down ties and
rails; finding the ground occupied, the
workmen were clearing the way by tear
ing up the Salt Lakes track, when the
marshal interfered and trouble was pre-
vented.
Now, THE HERALD suggests that citi-
zens, as well as the railway companies,
have some rights in the streets Of the city.
and that the rights of the people should be
given little consideration by the council
and by the railway companies The streets
generally throughout the city are so wide
that two railway tracks do not materially
interfere with wagon traffic; there is plenty
of room OF either side of the tracks for
the passage of wheeled vehicles. But
in the plat north of South Temple and east
of First East, the streets are narrow-so
narrow, in fact, that single railway track
is more or less Of an annoyance and incon-
venience, while two tracks would be such
nuisance or obstruction as TO call forth a
general protest on the part of the people
residing in that quarter Of the city. Two
tracks should be permitted on none of
these narrow streets; to allow two is an
abuse of power, III that it depreciates the
value Of private property and puts citizens
to unnecessary Inconvenience. If, by rea-
son Of the peculiar conformation of the
country it is necessary that the cars of diff
ferent lines shall run along the same street
for distance, the council should compel
the companies to use the same track.
One of the most frequented carriage
drives in the city is that through the
Eagle gate and along First street. 1t two
railway tracks shall be permitted on these
streets, the carriage drive will be de-
stroyed. There is no real occasion for
double tracks. One will accommodate all
the traffic and all the cars that the district
will furnish or demand, and if the council
has not taken into account the rights of the
property and the public the railway
companies should be considerable and reduce
the evil to the minimum by entering into
an arrangement for the mutual use of
single track.
