One of the Powers Family.

Cincinnati Enquirer.
Ex-Squire Vincent Schwab was in a
reminiscent mood yesterday afternoon
as he sat in Squire Winkler's court and
ehatted with a party of friends. The
conversation drifted to the magistrates
of We olden times.
''In 1863" said the squire. 81 was
clerking for Magistrate John Sampson
Powers, brother of Hiram Powers, the
famous sculptor. Squire Powers was
an eccentric old fellow. and was very
powerful man, He was man of hand
some physique, although he was little
short of hirsute appendage' and wore a
wig. One day in the early part of "a,
while the war was going ON, strong
man known as DR.. WinShip came to
town. He was billed in all the windows
as modern Samson who could lift l, 100
pounds. Squire Powers went to see
DR.. Winship perform and surprised the
audience by lifting 1000 pounds, or 100
ponds more than the travelling strong
man,
rs quire Powerswas great talker
and delighted in telling of his travels.
He had been high sheriff in California,
a drover in Kentucky. miner i'm Mex
leo, and had Travelled in nearly all of the
Western states and territories. The
squire was in high glory when relating of
the time ne swan the Red river with a
400-pound 'porker' under each arm. The
attorneys and constable soon learned the
magistrates long suit and when a
lawyer had case and his client would
not show up at the time of trial Justice
Powers would be started to telling of
his early adventures. Ths boys would
crowd around him, and then some
one would turn the hands on the
clock back half or three-quarters
OF An hour. Then the attorney
would hustle for his client and
avoid having judgment by default
rendered against him. while the gang
would laugh and jolly the aged squire
along.
g An instance of Squire Powers WON
derful strength was shown one day
when TWO big fellows were arraigned
before him Oh peace warrants. One of
the prisoners was very drunk, and he
knocked off the squire's wig. Then
there was fun. The old justice pitched
into those big DULLES and licked 'em
both, and then took them across the
street to the police station and locked
them up for contempt Of court

ABOUT THE UTAH COMMISSION


The death of the much lamented Col.
Lett, which made vacancy in the
Utah Commission. has opened the wav
for reconstruction of the entire Board.
Our Washington dispatches intimate
that this is likely to be effected. No
body will object to that but two or
three of the present members of that
body and some of the Republicans of
this territory and elsewhere.
That the Board has not been salts
factory to the present administration
has been evident for some time. That
it has not been in the political condition
designed by the laws creating and reg
ulating it, is also very clear. A thor
ough reorganization, therefore, has ap-
peared to be necessary. since Congress
has not seen fit to abolish it altogether
Some unjust remarks have been made
occasionally by extreme Republicans,
in reference to the alleged preference
Of prominent Democrats for the recon-
struction of the Commission to its abo-
lition. There is no leading Democrat
in Utah that we know Of who would
not rather see the Utah Commission
abolished and the conduct of elections
be restored to the elected representa-
tives of the people, if that could be ac-
ccmplished.
But it must be remembered that this

SOMETHING NEW IN COMMUNISM.

The departure of the pioneer COM
pany of Freeland colonists for British
East Africa, and the announcement
that second expedition is to follow
next month. the precursors of thou
sands of colonists from every part of
Europe, has excited much comment.
1t is composed of Austrians. 1t is to
be a communist colony and is called
Freeland. because it is to be governed
by the principles enunciated in Hert-
zas book ''Freeland."
Everything is to be managed by
voluntary groups of governing
men, who will own all they produce,
but the land will be owned in common.
So will the machinery This consti-
tutes difference with all other com
munistic ventures. which make both
the soil and its products the property
of the community.
A number of worthy persons have
contributed to this experiment. The
colonies viii be planted at the falls of
Hagazo, on the Tana river, about $50
miles from the sea coast. "A small
screw steamer of twenty-horse power
was shipped on the steamer Bundles
rath." on which the pioneers sailed,
and is to be used on the Tana.
The expedition, it is said, is heavily
armed. 1t is doubted by some people
whether there are uninhabited lands
at the point selected for the colony.
And the idea of using force to gain
possession of land for the purpose of
solving the problem of the right of
every man to the proceeds of his labor
is. to say the least, very peculiar.
Another objection advanced is that
the region selected is within the sphere
of British influence and there is some
danger of complications arising from
the presence of an Austrian associa-
ton at that point And then there are
the natives and their rights, which. if
not respected, will lead to serious
trouble. However, the managers Of
the expedition may have these matters
arranged, at least to their own salts
faction
DR.. Hertzka, the author of the book
"F'reeland," is the protector of this un-
dertaking, which will be watched with
great interest by thousands of people
in Europe who have read his book and
have been impressed with his theories
Following are few of his ideas on this
matter. published in q circular which
has had large European circulation.
1T is proposed to establish a commu-
nifty on the basis of perfect economic
| freedom and justice a community
which shall preserve the independence
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1894-04-08

of its members and shall secure to
every worker the full and undinlinished
enjoyment of that which he produces
By placing the means of production
at the disposal of the workers, we shall
enable them, without exception, to
work in the most advantageous man
ner.
we have therefore good reason for
believing that few words are neces-
sary to gain for our undertaking, which
speaks aloud for itself. the moral and
material support of all friends of hui
mainly. of all who understand their
own best interests. and of all who be-
lieve in brighter future and desire to
aid in its realization
The larger the means, and the more
numerous the personnel with which
our enterprise is begun, the more sure
and speedy will be its success, and the
sooner will it begin to react upon the
condition of the whole civilized world"
1t will be seen that this experiment
is an improvement on the kind of COM
munism which, by depriving the indi-
vidual member of any exclusive prop
erty in the products of his industry,
takes away that incentive which is
needed in the present condition of hui
mainly to bring out its best energies.
If there is in the community thus or
ganized sufficient homogeneity to hold
together, and shut out those strifes and
discussions which have usually dis
turbed other communistic ventures,
that were not dominated by a single
strong will or bound by stringent agree
ments it may establish a new social
order which will solve a number of
hnotty problems relating to capital and
labor and the common right to the soil
Time will demonstrate the cohesiveness
of the organization and the vitality of
the movement.
