a NEEDED LESSON.

The position taken by Judge Smith
in his charge to the grand jury at Ne
phi on Monday, is exactly right in ref,
erence to the so-called Industrial
army" The circumstances attending
the stealing of the train in Utah coun-
ty demand searching investigation, and
the instructions of the Judge should
be strictly followed.
The property of a corporation is en-
titled to the same protection from the
law as that of a private individual
Taking possession of it unlawfully is a
crime demanding punishment. There
should be as much diligence exercised
in bringing to justice the perpetrators
Of that offense as if it had been the lar
ceny of the effects of a householder or
.store-keeper, or the robbery of a per-
son on the highway.
There are sympathizers with the
train-stealers who seem to think that
while it would be very wrong to break
into private house and rob the owner,
it is all right, or at least a. small of
tense, to take advantage of a railroad
company, steal ride upon its trains
when necessity seems to call for it.
or take forcible possession thereof,
That is a perverted kind of morality
and those who entertain it ought to be
enlightened if it takes a great shock
to open their eyes.
As the facts are reported, it is very
evident that some persons ought to
be indicted by that grand jury whom
Judge Smith charged on Monday. We
hope the evidence will be forthcoming.
that they Will do their sworn duty. and
that lesson will be taught to which
the guilty persons will be compelled to
pay respect, and that others who ap-
plaud their offense will learn to go
slow in that direction in future.

BEAUTIES Ar our DOORS.

The average Salt Laker takes a great
deal of pride in his beloved city.
Abroad. he never tires of describing it's
location. its people, and its almost I'M
limited resources.
To talk of his home in the Salt Lake
valley; of the snow-capped mountains;
of the ripping rilis, of the nearby
hooks in the canyons, where, in mo-
ment. the noise and worry of the city
lis forgotten; of the great lake, with
its unexcelled bathing resorts; of the
rushing mountain waters that come
fresh from their bed of ice and snow, to
make two blades of grass grow where
one grew before; of the broad streets,
lined on either side with outrageous
foliage, is a source of pleasure
to MIN; all these and count
less other attractions and re-
sources he heralds abroad by tongue
and pen, and yet, strange to say, one
of the greatest attractions to the lover
of the beautiful in nature is coldly and
almost Systematically ignored-the
wild flowers that dot, yea cover, the
hills to the north, northwest and north
east.
OF the $4,000 people in the city of
Salt Lake. it is safe to say there are
less than thousand outside of the

number of the wild flowers that grow.

HINTS TO FARMERS.


The following gleanings, many of
them taken from the American Farmer
will be of great interest and profit to
the agricultural readers of The Her
aid:
Most farmers have learned the value
Of persistent labor; many more have
yet to grasp the Importance of system
attic work: These latter often wonder
why the city man who takes to farm
ing frequently makes a financial sue
cess, backed by no practical experience
Usually it is because his school, COLLEGE
or business training has taught him
discipline of mind.
Utah is the potato county par ex-
cellence. Many farmers leave planting
until late in the season, some claiming
the best kind of a crop comes from
planting in June in ''the dark of the
moon" But elsewhere il is now the com
mon practice to plant the potatoes
much earlier. Instead of this work be-
ing allowed to await the convenience
OF the farmer, it is now attended to
either before the corn is put in or while
that work is in progress. And the fact
that there has been such a change of
practice during a period in which far
mers have been reading, studying and
experimenting far more generally and
carefully than they had ever done be-
fore is, in itself, strong presumptive
evidence that the plan now followed
presents marked advantages over the
method that was formerly employed.
Beans as a staple crop will find favor
with farmers this season who are re.
ducing acreage in wheat. Prices are
not liable to fall much for several
years. In Michigan, where great at
tention is given this crop, they seldom
net as low as 81 per bushel.
A few farmers have grown the pump-
kin as a crop itself. Some have done
this in a separate field. Others
have left a strip around their corn
fields upon which the pumpkins were
planted. Results SO far as made public
have been almost uniformly satisfac-
tory.
A little fertilizer or some well rotted
manure in the hills. will be of great
advantage. The hills should be seven
feet apart, each way, for medium
sized kinds The small varieties may
be planted more closely but the man.
moth sorts should be in hills at least
nine feet apart each way. Three plants
should be left in each hill The ground
should be cultivated several times dur.
ing the season. Weeds must be Kept
out of the hills and the main vines
should be pinched in SO as to keep the
plants of adjoining hills from inter-
fering with each other.

There is to be a new cable across or

size and facilities by which thirty

The steamer Faraday. when she left

it, and is to lay 100 miles outward from
the Irish coast, after which she will

and reel it out on her second run to the

voyage on June l, and it is expected
that the ends will be Joined by June

It is evident that the Carbon, Cwyo., }
Journal doesn't tackle very kindly to
the "'highfalutin' style of reporting.
1t. says: According to a news item
which lately appeared in a st. Louis
paper Miss Helen Gould recently
walked across a hotel corridor in that
city, all by herself, and deliberately
wrote her name on the hotel register.
We are glad to know this, for we wild
5gnoramuses Of the west naturally sup
posed that the early education of the
members Of the Gould family had been
neglected, and that they were unac-
quainted with the Spencerian system
The act of bravery in crossing the hotel
corridor, 1anked by dnnumeraible cuspi-
doris, in plain view of the hotel clerk,
with a beer-bottled diamond on his
shirt front, needs only to be known to
be applauded as truly heroic

sweet william, of all colors, varying
from an almost pure white to dark
red; the mountain lily, fragile in ma
ture and delicate in color; the wild
grape; a small blush flower of cup
shape; sunfowers of varied hues: and
sweet peas giving out shades of pur-
pie, of red and of almost pure white.
These in their turn, a couple of
weeks hence, or less, will give way to
others-among the most pronounced
being the sego Lily, the state flower
of Utah. which is held in precious
memory by the pioneers because of
the nutritive properties of the dubious
roots, which, alone, are sufficient to
sustain life many days.
A month later on the mountain tops
and in the secluded ravines and can
yons will appear the blueben proper-a
tall and stately plant of exceeding
beauty, both in richness of flower and
profusion of delicately-limned foliage.
Later, the hills will bear numerous
other varieties, but all more beautiful
to the lover of nature than the pets of
the florist nurtured and tenderIy cared
for in the dollhouse.
The almost utter Indifference of Salt
Lakers towards the wild-f1owers of the
hillside, while deplored by the writer
who has found one of the keenest en-
joyments in life by strolling among
and plucking here and there the
choicest varieties of each during the
brief respite afforded each week from
a sedengary occupation-has, however,
not been without beneficial effects.
Each year has seen the beauties of the
hillsides grow in quantity and quality,
until now the apparently bleak noun
tains, viewed from distance, are in
reality immense flower beds of such
grandeur, when seen at short range,
as to be worthy of being ranked with.
and advertised to the world as one of
the greatest attractions to the resi-
dent of and the short-time sojourner
within the gates of this justly famous
CITY.

The Chinese empire is looking out for
the interests and the protection of its
subjects in other places besides the
United States. The third article of a

There shall be perpetual peace and

between their respective subjects.
These can repair freely TO the respect
i've states of the high contracting pow
ers and reside there. They shall OBJ

The Kansas City Star has this to say:
1t should be understood that the Coxey
movement and all similar movements
having for their purpose a change in
the functions and purposes of the gov
eminent Of this country, tend to the
establishment of an ignoble and de-
testable tyranny-the rule of Coxeys
and Keilys and Galvins and Hogans
and the self-elected chiefs who can
gather gangs strong enough to plum
der in the name of labor and lib
erty," the extent of their depredations
being limited only by the extent of the
force they can muster. Safety for a
government of law and reasonable lib
erty rests in the suppression by pub
lie sentiment to the domination of loaf
ers and unbridled license. no matter
what professions are made in their be-
half.
