text that used to be written for US in
our copy books at school.
Provo must have water works even if
we bond our city. We must protect
out property; we must take every step
to secure good health for ourselves and
our children. The procuring of water
works is one of those steps and it must
be taken now. We have delayed too long
No matter if our children and the fu-
ture tax payers of Provo do have topay
their share OF the work-it is nothing
but 7 ght that they should. This will
be one of the public Improvements that
will attract strangers TO come and re-
side with us in the future. Let thos,
strangers help pay for them by bonding
the city.
Let the watchword now be-Water
works

GIVE THE FRANCHISE.

Whether or not it is generally known,
il is fact that the r. &. w. Ry. Co.
started in to make out of PROVO indus
trially and, in time, financially and in
other ways, a second Salt Lake. Had
the company received the treatment
from our citizens and city council that
they had right to expect, the round
houses and the work shops of the R. g..
w. Rv. Co. would to-day be located in
Provo instead of being in Salt Lake
city. The company, it is true, wanted
something from Provo in return for
this if they had been permitted to thus
wonderfully add to Provo's prosperity.
They wanted a portion of the west
square for depot purposes and fran
chise to run their trains on certain
streets. Had their requests been
granted, Provo to- day would have been
prominent railroad center: it would
have been the end Of division Of the
R. G. W; the work shops, round houses
and all would have been here with al
the attendant industries inviting new
enterprises and building up Provo as
nothing else that has as yet knocked at
our doors could build.
1t is not our purpose to dig up ancient
or recent history and belittle the judg-
ment of officers and public men that
are now down and out, but we
must say--it is sad to contemplate
the fact we have lost this opportunity,
and add that the above mentioned facts
should be taken in the light # one Of
those dearly bought lessons which
that stern;master, experience, teaches
and let not any future opportunity pass
bv without taking advantage of the
same.
Now, the poirt we wish to urge most
particularly in this connection is that
the R. G. W. is still inclined favor
ably toward Provo notwithstanding the
fact it has been so discouraged, and
now that new life is enthused IN the
public spirit OF Provo'S citizens, we
we should all at least meet the com
panv halfway. At no far distant day
there will be other railroads centering
in Provo, and when we look at
Ogden and other Railroad points,
and note their rapid strides to
the front which would have been i'm
possible for them to take without the
advantage of the railroads centering
there, we cannot but be convinced
that every move that is made tending
to induce railroads to make improve
ments in our city is greatly to the
city's interests.
The R. G. W. is at the present
time desirous of building in Provo a
large, new and modern depot. In or
der to do this they must lave more
room than they now have for intended
additional switches. They want a
franchise to build tracks on une-half Of
First street for four blocks from } to
n streets.
Now. when we think of that road
that is eventually going up Provo
canyon and to Park City, and think OF
the "Little Giants" enterprise and
push, if we may be allowed to use

AS TO SCHOOL ELECTIONS.

1t perhaps might be considered rather
premature to suggest this early in the
day, work for the next territorial legis-
lature, but it is well to think of matters
some time before acting thereon. And
this beeing the day of rest and our leg
lators-elect will to-day find time for
reflection, We take the liberty of plac-
ing before them and all our readers this
morning the following thoughts.
We elect cur school trustees, as is
known in July Is this the best time
of the year? We think not. We think
that it would be better to elect them
some time early In the spring, so as to
allow the new boards to madeI early
arrangements for the ensuing year.
To elect a school board in July and have
it inherit the arrangements of previous
boarl is not the nest policy. 1t is thus
compelled to accept plans for a year
which it might not have made at all,
The TACT that the board is partially con-
tinuous is only a limited excuse for late
elections, if it is any at all. This mat
ter merits consideration.

BE FISH OR FOWL.

The Price Telegraph, though political
ly opposed to this paper, yet is sensible
when it comes to handling a common,
every day argument. Here is how it
views the action of ABE HATCH in the
last campaign:
Late reports from the election indi-
cate that L. NJ. OLSON has foored
HATCH by a majority of at least 100.
dATCH would have used good jUdgment
by coming out square as party man
and not taking "fap-doodle" petition
OF the fence where neither party pared
10 support him. We do naturalE " ad-
mire man who has the eternalI sand
to declare himself upon all DECISIONS,
even i frcosts him dearly and gesaSts in
numerous defeats. A good Example
for weakened politicians, who have "A
natural hankering after Office, is that
of the editor at Helena, Montana. who,
when candidate for office realized
that he was hopelessly in the minority
party. stuck to his principles on the
eve of the election by stating in pub
lie speech his honest political convic-
lions and then said to the voters,
''TheSe are my sentiments, vote as you
d. d please" If that man had been
elected he would have made good Off
Ger, he would have never stolen a dol
lar of the peoples money. He had too
much manhood. individuality, intpgri-
ty and Americanlsm about him to be
thief.

The Kicker

Dost love man who always kicks. no matter
what you DO
Who kicks with the most Drodigious ease the
whole season through
Who kicks if anything goes wrong. and kicks
fall goes right,
Who kicks because ne likes to kick, and kicks
with all his might
We know some awful kickers on this wicked
mundane sphere,
Who came on earth by accident and kick be-
cause they re here;
They make themselves uncomfortable and
other people sick;
They drive their friends to suicide aud stiE
they always kick.
We know man who kicks and kicks the
blessed livelong day.
And if there's nought to kick about, he's kick
ing anyway;
At times when things are going right and
other men would smile.
He kicks on general principles, and kicketh ali
the while.

The Smaller Product Demonstrated By

Recent analysis ranges from 3.4 per

per cent, sucr9se, and 85.9 purity, the
former results were obtained from ii
