MEDIA, Pa, Jan. "a Prof.
Swithin G. Shortlidge who recently
shot and killed his young wife, while
out walking, will be removed in a
few days to the insane asylum, the
court commission having declared
him irresponsible. Objections are
taken to this course as the provis.
ion of the state Law requiring tina,
insane criminals be acquitted before
being sent to the asylum has not
been complied with. Inasmuch,
however, as the murderer ISL an al.

will probably ignore the letter of

state asylum, especially as the j iii
is not provided with facilities for

Grand Army Mattars

BosToN, Mass, Jan. "a -Ahor.
a month ago, COMMANDMENT. Chief
John Adams, of the Grand Army of
the Republic, issued letter to the
various posts of the order through
out the United States calling atten.
tion to the statement that President
Cleveland, in his message to con.
gress, had maae the state ment that
thousands of neighborhoods have
their we'll known fraudulent nan
sioners, and alking each and eyery
member of every post to report to
the commissioner of pensions at
Washington, as we'll as 10 the head
quarters of the Grand Army, the
name OF any person in receipt of a
pension and not Justly entitled
Their. to under the law. This re-.
quest was based on the ground that
the mission of the Grand Amy was
TO encourage honor and purity in
Publlo affairs, and that, If such
wrongs actually existed, it was he
duty Of the order to give all posi-.
BILE aid toward rectifyipg them.
Uuion veterans being as anxious t,
guard the treasury of the nation in
time of peacs as they were to de.
fend the flag in time of war. A
member of the executive council of
the Grand Army who was in the
CITY yesterday stated that, although
this letter had in compliance with
the general orders been read in
every post III the country, not a
single report, either alleging or sug.
costing that any specific individual
was receiving pension under
fraudulent circumstances, had 30
far been received at headquarters
He added that If another month
passed and the same conditions con.
tinued to exist, it was probable that
the council of administration wou
issue formal reply to President
Cleveland's allegations.

On An Important Question.


On An Important Question.
To The News:
This is the time to talk sense.
and common sense at that. Things
should be called by the right names,
aud then something else won't an.
swer. If you amt q Democrat
you ought to be, for the principle.
OF that party pure and undetiled-
are the only principles that can up
hold true republican government.
But let me speak to the question it,
mind. From present indication.
that portion of the Wilson bill
placing wool on the free list will
become law. l wish to talk about
the wool business, some hat.
According to wise mans decla
ration, wool is sixth in the great
agricultural products of America
America produces 800, 600 600
pounds of wool a year. South
America the Argentine Confeder-
alton produces the greater portion
Of wool. But let us remain in
America with our dis ,ussion. In
1891 Texas had IN ire sheep than
any other state in the Union. AT
hat time 5.O4O IT'S ate grass in
Texas, nearly million more than
in the state of California, and a
half million more than in the state
of Ohio, whe-e the great protec
ZIONIST, Mckinley, lives. Now
when the question came up before
congress every member from Texas
voted directly against the sheep in
dustry and gave that commodity a
death blow. We pay them atou
S'4 day to vote against our inter
ests. The northern members of tn.
house stood by US.
When the sugar bounty question
comes up bsfore the house, Louis
lana, as one man, comes boldly to
the front and advocates the p,ote
ton of his principal industry w,
have got too small a number o
sheep in Texas, and entirely TOT
large number of s'mutton heads
in congress. The sheep men o
Texas deserve protection; man,
sheep raisers in the state have thei
clip on hand, being unable to sell i
at any price. 1t seems to me tina
the whole legislation is in the in
terest Of the manufacturer. w
cheaper wool by unwise legislation
the manufactures buys it and con
verts it into clothes, and we hav
to pay heavily for it.
l know very little about thi
tariff question, and when l read tn
Congressional Globe l consider my
self IN the brutal majority. If
amt right about this matter I is
you to set me right. Barney Glib
talks about a campaign of educa
ton, but we always have the cam
paign without the education. VII
you please give me your views O
this question? The NEWS has al
ways been free to inform its reader
on all questions of interest and i'm
portance. If am wrong, right me
if l am right, tell me go.
Yours for the right,

The Saltair Beach company is insur-
ing it's beautiful buildings against fire
losses and the insurance is being plac-
ed by the local agents who desire to
handle a risk of this character. The
rate fixed is per cent. and the amount
to be carried by the company is $780,
600.
II is understood the company has in
contemplation the placing of a number
of small chemicals in various parts of
the structure and put in training a
fire team This would give the resort
a fire department of no mean capacity
and make reduction in the rate of
insurance, in addition of adding ma
terially to the safety of its pa is.
Some time ago Captain Donnell, head
of the local branch of the Pacific In
surance union, in company with a
number of agents and several officers
of the Saltair, visited the resort for the
purpose of looking over the buildings
and ascertaining their fire hazard.
The captain suggested some improve
ments which would materially change
the rate to be paid and was a strong
advocate of the chemicals. The matter
is q, gain receiving attention at the
hands Of the oompany's officers, who
now appreciate the value of fire fight
ing apparatus in the structures. II
was at first proposed to have a fire
car ready at the station in this city
and in the event of fire at the resort
place n engine upon the car and take
it gu: the lake. The impracticabi lity
of ths plan has been shown. In the
first place the salt water would be use
less as a fire fighting agent for the
reason that it would clog the APP
paratus before it had been al work any
length OF time. Then again, in the
event Of d fire it would sweep the
buildings to the waters edge before
the special train could reach the beach.
The necessity of having apparatus
right in the buildings themselves, in
order that the blazes may be nipped in
the embryo, must, therefore, be ap-

The first steps looking to the pur-
chase or exchange of land at the out
let of the gravity sewer are now being
taken by the special committee recently
named by the city council, of which
Chairman Doremus, of the board Of
public works, is the head This COM
mittee has already held one meeting
and drawn up a request to the prop
erty-owners who have holdings in the
vicinity of the outlet for propositions
of sale or exchange. AS yet nothing
has been heard from these people, but
the city officials who have the matter
in hand are confident of securing all
the land necessary for the disposal of
of the sewerage matter from the city
OF course, since the commencement of
the construction of the system, the city
has held semi-official contract with
the owners of $50 acres at the mouth
of the sewer by which it can secure the
land for $120 an acre, or as much less
as arbitration or condemnation pro-
ceedings will secure 1t is desirable.
however, that the property-owners sub

desirable to them at this late date.

Experience with Ants.
Q Editor of the Herald:

To the Editor of the Herald:
1 noticed in your paper a request for
information in regard to getting rid of
ants which are truly becoming a pest in
this city. On moving into some premises
II found them so numerous as to be an
aggravating nuisance.
They had 'buffed" the former residents
off the front porch and apparently appro-
priated it for promenade and dress pa
rade. soon decided that either the ants
or myself must retreat-there were too
many of us all for the size of the house.
/ spent upwards OF SIS on recommended
recipes to get the pests to retreat, but
found out they did not know what the
word meant They would crawl over
mercury as though pleased with it, From
experience l have concluded that on gen
eral principles the best thing to get rid
of ants is to kill them-to be sure if a
mar is anxious TO fulfill that divine COM
mand which Is the essence of divine phil
osophy, do unto others as you would
have them do to you," and to do it after
the sample pretty generally set in this
nineteenth century of holiness, induce
your second or third door neighbor to
plant on his lot freely of boxelder trees,
being careful at the same time to uproot
every tree and shrub of the kind off your
own lot. Ants will travel long distance
to obtain their food from a boXelder tree.
1t is prominently the turkey and mince
pie of their menu. / have killed in one
day on one of these trees twelve hundred
ants.
In the spring of the year you can find
theirn ests. When 1 find one i partly fill
tub. with water pouring on the top a
little kerosene oil; dig dirt and ants up
and throw into it, keeping a sharp look
out for the king anti is big injury to
the ant family to kill off their mich
COWS. / acknowledge considerable aid
from my chickens, and in view of the
large amount of vacant land in the heart
of the city which makes regular breed
ling places for ants, it might be well to
4 alter the chicken law so that they could
run loose, only liable for damage instead
of confiscation. Respectfully

DIVIDEND ron THE QUARTER.
Stockholders of the Deseret Savings
Bank Receiving Stock Earnings.

Bank Receiving Stock Earnings.
Another June dividend payer came to
the front yesterday, being the Deseret
Savings bank, which upon q capital
stock of 100000 will pay dividend Of
% per cent, the first payments having
been made yesterday. This was the re-
suit of a meeting Of the board of direc-
tors of the institution held yesterday
morning.
The directors met at II O'clock, and
after hearing the report of the cashier
and investigating the affairs Of the com
pany. declared the regular quarterly
dividend of 21z per cent, payable at
once.
The directors Of the Deseret National
held their regular monthly meeting
during the morning and cleared the
table of the accumulation OF routine
business. 1t was not the dividend
period with the institution.
At 3 o'clock the board of directors OF
the Commercial National bank held its
monthly meeting and when the matter
of dividends was reached, it being the
end of the quarter, the directors de-
cided to pass the dividend and cover
the amount Of earnings into the fund
Of undivided profits. There was plenty
c. money in this fund to pay a hand
some dividend, but the opinion was
that a conservative financial policy de-
manded the course adopted

wYcanNG's WOOL CLIP.
Estimated at Eight Million Pound.
by Heavy Wool Men.


1.-The wool clip of Wyoming for this
year is estimated at 100000 pounds, -
said w. P. Noble, who has just re-
turned from his Wyoming ranch, yes
terday afternoon to a Herald reporter.
THE quality OF the wool is good but
prices are away down and the indica-
lions for any advance seem very slim.
In fact, we do not anticipate any ad-
vance change for the better under ex-
listing conditions. The clip is moving
rapidly or was, at least, until the
railroad strike tied everything UP.
Sales are being made all the way from
6 cents per pound TO ~ cents
Withal the outlook for Wyoming is
encouraging, in the opinion of Mr.. No
bic, and while prices on all products
of the state are low the returns are
heavs and the quantity makes UP in
a measure for the decline in prices
paid But few movements in cattle
are taking place, the stockers being out
on the ranges and the feeders not
ready for market.
