ONLY THINK OF THE AssURANCE.-
John B. Allen now asks that Congress
reimburse him for the valuable time
he spent in visiting Washington and
presenting the Governors certificate
OF appointment rs U. S. Senator. He
wants $1,000, but deducts nothing for
the two months time, for which he
received pay, while electioneering for
reelection by the Legislature. He is
not likely to get the allowance claimed
nor is he entitled in justice, to any
thing. When he accepted question
able credentials he took his own risk
of their sufficiency, and it requires a
super-abundance of cheek to ask that
he be paid electioneering expenses
from the public purse. The Senate
Committee has, however, recommend
ed payment of one-half the amount
claimed, to each of the three appli-
cants who presented certificates from
the Governors of Washington, Mon
tana and Wyoming.

The IMPORTANCE OF PURITY IN
MILK.-The Scientific american seems
to agree with the startling theory ad.
vanced by DR.. McQuestion, of the U
S. Board OF Examining Surgeons, that
cows milk is the primary cause OF tu-
berculosis. 1t quotes from the Medical
Record, which alludes to it as "a dis.
covery of the true cause" and proceeds
to show by statistics that there is an
intimate connection, at least, between
the disease and the use OF cows milk.
The Record says" Science seems to be
pointing towards the conclusion that
there are two great and potent poisons,
constantly ditfused among civilized
peoples, and these are milk and water.
Not that these substances are essen
TALLY bad, but that they are accident.
ally so. 1t is not proposed to abolish
but to purify them" As advised by
the STANDARD, in previous issue, the
use OF cows milk should be restricted
to that from healthy animals, fed on
wholesome food and supplied with
pure water. All these conditions seem
to exist on the ranch visited by the
writer, and which was the subject of
an extended article at that time.

The murder grew out of an old feud

DIR. /. r. Herrick, the victim of a
street quarrel, at Port Angeles, with
Judge s. P. Carusi, died at IL 80
o'clock Tuesday night, from internal
hemorrhages. He was conscious to
the last, and was surrounded by his
wife, physicians and friends. The au.
topsy shows the course of the bullet
was downward from the right breast,
lodging in the hipbone. The Coroner's
jury rendered the usual verdict, with
the addition that the jury found that
the shooting was done by the Judge
under great provocation; that DIR.
Herrick had repe atedly struck the
Judge on the head with an iron wrench,
infiicting dangerous wounds. The
verdict is practically an exoneration of
the judge, and it is doubtful if any
further steps will be taken in the mat
ter by the authorities. Later develop
ments prove that the judge is much
more seriously injured than was at
first suspected. His physicians pro.
nounce his case most precarious one,
and they fear that he may not recover.
The judge is 81 years of age, and sub
Ject to severe attacks OF erysipelas.
which, it is much feared, will set in
now. Besides, it is thought his brain
has been injured by the terrible blows
OF his assailant.

MUST BE SUPPRESSED.

Ut is evident that incendiarism caused
the fires that have consumed much pro-
perty in several places in this territory
within the past few weeks. Some
criminals seem to have mania for des-
truction, and they go about their de-
moniacal work apparently with the sole
desire to destroy. What benefit can &C.
crue TO an incendiary who fires a lumber
yardg In firing a store or a dwelling,
plumber may be the object. But nc profit
can come to frebug from the burning
up of piles of lumber.
Whatever may be the moving cause of
disposition to destroy property by fire,
the person who commits arson deserves
no sympathy and is not likely to meet
with mercy. There is sometimes sense
less spirit of revenge in brutalized human
nature, that seeks to do harm without
any other purpose than to injure some
body. Society at large appears to be the
object of malice and hatred, the'world
seems to be against some poor wretch
who Is unfortunate, and he determines
to be revenged upon the world.
1t is horrible condition OF mind, and
viewed in one light might call for COM
miseration rather than punishment. But
1t is dangerous and ought to be sup
pressed, no matter how vigorous must
be the means employed for the purpose.
Lives as we'll as property are put in jeop-
ardy by the jevilism of the frebug, and
when an incendiary is detected and his
guilt is beyond doubt, the penalty should
be fully and unhesitatingly inflicted.
Severity is the only practical cure for
this form of disease. 1t is fashionable
with certain class to cal! all crime dds
ease" But whether that term is cor
rect in such cases or not, for the protec-
ton of society it is necessary TO punish
crime, and the law should be enforced
without theorzing. when human life and
are threatened by this vicious
and murderous kind of mania.
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1893-09-13
THE 1RRIeArIoN CONGRESS

Governor Markham of California wants
the people of the states and territories
west of the Mississippi river not to forget
the irrigation congress which is to con-
vene at Los Angeles, October 10th, 1898.
Delegates should be chosen from every
one of them. Reduced fares have been
arranged for with the railroads 1t is ex-
pected that representatives will come
from many foreign countries.
The subject of irrigation is attracting
attention all over the world. The sue
cess that has attended it in the arid re-
gions of this continent has recommended
it to other portions of the globe similarly
situated. There is q very general desire
to understand its workings among those
who have not brought it into use, and
for improvements in the system by those
who have been compelled to adopt it.
Among the latter are the people OF this
territory. To them as much as anybody
this country is indebted for practical OBJ
ject lessons in economical and organized
irrigation. When. the pioneers entered
this valley they found it absolutely
necessary to divert the then scanty noun
tain streams upon the parched soil on
which no rains fell in the heated season.
They knew nothing of any irrigation sys-
tenn. They improvised one of their own.
By unity of effort and mutual desire to
DE helpful they combined labor and skill,
and so introduced and afterward mature d
system which, without the expenditure
of money, worked successfully for many
years, and in many parts of Utah still &C
complishes all that is necessary.
But times have changed, and improve
ments are needful and better methods on
larger scale are required for the re-
clamation OF arid lands which, in large
areas, may be brought into cultivation
by cooperation of labor and capital.
At the Los Angeles convention the subject
viii be discussed and there should be
delegates from Utah as well as all the
western states and territories to give and
receive information. Los Angeles is a
delightful city to visit, and those who
attend the congress will obtain both
pleasure and profit.
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1893-09-13

and without them those systems would
long since have persisted ard passed away.
In the present age, when international
communication is becoming SO facile, and
the walls OF partition that have divided
mankind are being thrown down by the
army of intellectual forces that is march
ing forward, it seems fitting that ex-
Founders of the various important relig-
ions should come together and compare
their respective creeds. What more ap-
propriate time for this than the close of
the nineteenth century, and what more
suitable place than the spot where the
worlds wonderful products of ali kinds
are gathered for great Exposition?
1t is not to be supposed that this assem-
bling of notable ecclesiastics will result
IN any formal union of ideas or efforts in
the cause of universal religion. The d.
vergence is too wide for any such ap-
proach to a common focus. But the eff
fects OF this commingling cannot fail TO
be beneficial, and may prove to be a
paving OF the way for greater harmony of
feeling and more tolerant course of con-
duct by all the contending creeds.
1t will certainly tend to dissipate many
incorrect conceptions of the beliefs and
purposes of the different organizations.
1t viii show that all have similar pur-
pose and a common end. 1t will soften
the hearts of men toward each other, and
make them feel that whether Christian or
Pagan, Catholic or Protestant, Buddhist
or Mahommedan, Jew or Gentle, eau
casian, Mongolian or Ethiopian. they
belong to common humanity and should
be joined IN universal brotherhood.
The Parliament of Religions is a new
convocation. 1t ought to be the Begin.
ming of a series. That is If it proves to
have been conducted without rancor and
to have finished without bitterness.
Religious differences SO often cause in
tense antagonism of spirit and acrimony
of speech that discussion is a thing to be
avoided by sectaries. It is 10 be hoped
that this great assembly will witness no
such exhibitions, but that its calmness OF
spirit and fraternity of feeling will lead to
other and more important gatherings,
that shall result in the blending together
OF the nations and the establishment OF
universal peace.
