TODAY!

This is Arbor Day. The Governors
proclamation should be honored for
two reasons: One is that legitimate au-
thority should be recognized by all
good citizens. Another is that the
planting of trees is for both public and
private benefit, and if we all do some
thing towards it at a designated time,
the result will be of sufficient proper
lions to accomplish the desired object.
But if no concert of action is effected,
the results are not likely to be very
great.
Everybody in this city should try to
beautify their surroundings. All own
ers or occupiers of a piece of ground
should plant either shade or fruit trees,
or some shrubbery. They should do
this today to be in harmony with their
neighbors and fellow citizens and for
general effect. If there is no room for
the new trees in some gardens or on
the sidewalks, let the old ones be
trimmed and put in good shape. Do
something to make Arbor Day a real
ity
OF course the Governors procIama-
ton is only advisory. There is moth
ing compulsory about it. But for the
very reason that it calls for voluntary
and united action to accomplish a
good purpose, it should meet with a
hearty and general response from the
people. Plant trees today!

The committee having in charge the
Sixth International Geographical Con-
gress, which is to be held in London in
1S95-the last was hello in Berne in 1891
have issued circular indicating in
general terms the programme on which
they desire the Congress to be con-
Quoted. The most interesting feature
is the announcement that "geographi-
cal problems connected with coloni-
cation will probably be dealt with in
some detail, and therefore those inter
ested in or connected with the colonies
of all European countries are especial
ly invited to attend" Communications
may be made in French, German, ItaI-
ian, or English. There viii be a Geo
graphical exhibition in connection with

This from the Willard County Blade,
has the right ring; The people of
Utah never realized how much they
were dependent for their prosperity on
the mines until the crash came. Now
the people are talking of home indus
tries. and if this shall be carried out
with the same zeal that characterizes
the chin music" at present. Utah will
be all right. mines or no mines. But
with revival of an industry which is
at our very doors, together with home
manufactures, Utah would indeed be-
come great"

Murder will out" The very great

of the blood corpuscles and so does

never fear if you can help it. The
process is thus clearly described by a

if the animal or individual is fright

however, the Ieucocytes go on with
their phagocytism as usual. The pc
culiar appearance of the American

failare of phagocytsm, superinduced
at the sight Of the axe and the wood

tus in all this mountain region. The
whole establishment and equipments,
with one first-class professor, have
been rendered by the association free
for the term of two years!
This is magnificent gift. It will
help the University to tide over the
trouble which has overtaken it through
the parsimony of the legislature, and
its refusal to make the necessary APP
preparation for the maintenance of the
chief educational institution of the
territory. The faculty will be placed
in entire control of the institution thus
offered, and this will materially reduce
its current expenses.
1t is to be hoped that other plans
will be devised by which the Uniyer-
sity of Utah can be properly main
tanned, until a less niggardly legisla-
ture and one less controlled by sec
tional and party feelings can be elect
ed. Men of means would bring lasting
honor upon their names if, in this crit
zeal time in the history of Utah educa-
ton, they would step forward and
come to the rescue of the University.
1t must not be allowed to decline, nor
should its usefulness be permitted to
diminish.

FOR THE LADIES.

Utah has always recognized the right
and the necessity of woman's co-opera-
ton with man in everything that af-
fects the welfare of society. 1t is
pleasing to see the ladies forging to
the front in the movement for the sup
port of home industries. Without their
influence and aid it would prove a fiat
failure. How could men manage to
Introduce into the household a prefer
ence for home produced articles in
food, clothing, fabrics and utensils of.
various kinds, if the women in the
home were opposed to them?
We regard the mass meeting of wo-
men to be held in the Theatre on
Thursday at o'clock p. m. as of vital
interest to the cause Of home indus
try. They will present the subject
from their own standpoint. They will
show its economical bearings and its
necessity to the common welfare. They
understand its details more perfectly
than men can comprehend them and
can give the cause an impetus which
viii push it along TO success.
If the ladies of this territory will
make up their minds that they will
use only home raised and home manu-
featured articles. when they can be
nad of the required kind and quality,
there is nothing under the sun to stop
the way to triumph of our home in
dustrial efforts. Whenever there is
a demand there will be found a sup
ply. The women can create the de-
mand and encourage the supply. That
is the only bounty that is needful to
stimulate exertion and secure success.
We. hope the ladies of this city,
young and matured. will flock to the
Theatre on Thursday They will be
addressed by eloquent home speakers
of their own sex It will be an inter-
estng occasion. And many of the
women of this city viii learn some
thing about our home products that
they never thought of before. This is
a subject that affects the home, the
question Of employment for our young
men ana girls, and the prosperity and
peace of the entire community. La

A GOOD MAN GONE.

The people of Salt Lake will deeply
regret the demise Of Col Lett. 1t was
not altogether unexpected. His feeble
condition for some time has been no.
ticed with sorrow and not long ago
his death is almost hourly anticipat-
ed. But when he rallied and was able
10 take a trip to the coast, it was
hoped that the change of air and sur
roundings would bring him out of his
illness and that he would return re-
stored and able to mingle freely with
his frienl again.
Col. Le:t was d genial, pleasant gen
tleman as wen as a shrewd fnancier
and competent business man. His ser
vice to the public as one of the Utah
Commission showed that he was fam
liar with the needs of the territory
and the duties imposed upon MIN. and
able 10 fill his position with honor and
integrity. He was staunch Democrat
and a vigorous supporter of the party
and its principles to which he had de-
voted his best energies.
AS a political adviser. an advocate
of the doctrines of the Democracy, a
real estate investor, public spirited
citizen, a sociable companion, man
of the people, a faithful official and
the newsboys special friend, he will
be remembered with pleasure and
mourned as a, good man gone. Peace
be to his remains!

origin, would be rated at or above S12
per month, shall be rated at $12 per
month"
In making affidavits under this order,
lit was only necessary to substantiate
the existence of some disability, to
swear that it interfered to some extent
with the ability of the claimant to
earn support, and under the order
quoted. a pension such as the law pro-
vides for total inability to earn a sup
port was at once allowed.
The Times publishes the names and
particulars of a large number of such
cases, which show that the law has
been perverted, and that through the
schemes of pension agents, thousands
of persons have been drawing money
from the Treasury who had no legal
claim. Except in rare instances, it has
not been necessary for the old soldier
to make a false affidavit. The pension
agent, or political worker, has been
able to draw UP form of affidavit so
equivocal in it's vital points that the
claimant has committed no perjury in
signing it. The Iooseness with which
| the Pension Bureau has been trans
acting business has. been responsible
for the acceptance of these affidavits.
1t is to correct such abuses as these,
that pension reform has been inaugu-
rated by the Democratic administra-
ton. The genuine army men and pen.
sioners of the country, ought to be
glad to have the lists purged of the
frauds and dead-beats and all persons
not legally entitled to a pension. The
money comes from the people. The
burden has been increasing so rapidly
that it is time there was a limit placed
to the great expenditure
But in calling a halt. and turning on
the light of critical inquiry, it was not
designed to take away from any de-
serving soldier or a surviving relative
of dead hero entitled to relief, one
solitary dollar properly appropriated.
Pension reform was and is a public
necessity, and it will go on until only
those persons who are lawfully entitled
to the bounty of the nation are permit
ted to draw funds for their support
from the Treasury of the United

LAS TO BUTTER.

The following communication. though
intended as a reply to an article in
The Herald and as a vindieation of a
creamery which was not the object of
attack, virtually supports all that The
Herald had to say on this question.
Utah ought to be able to supply its own
people with good. palatable butter at
a reasonable price. and also to export
a quantity to the surrounding regions.
Instead of that, a great deal of butter
lis brought into the territory from out
side places, while we are crying out,
support home industries -
1t is a fact that a great deal of poor,
rancid and mixed butter is sold in
Salt Lake city and against that we
protest We have nothing to say
about the product of any particular
dairy or creamery What we want
and what hotels boarding houses and
private families want is cheap but
not nasty butter and it is wanted gem
uine. We give place to this letter, how
ever, with pleasure:
Editor Herald:
An editorial in last Saturdays Her
aid, under the caption LAS to Butter"
reflects on the dairy interests and the
creameries of the territory.
What you say of the butter that
city grocers receive from country deal
ers is only too true-much of it does
possess great odorate strength-but
the products of diaries and creameries
cannot all be classed with this rancid
farm article. There are some excep-
tons, at least, and a notable one is
the product of the Kaysville cream
cry, which has been selling in the Salt
Lake market for nearly two years. 1t
speaks well for this butter, to say that
the demand for it has steadily increas-
ed. The imputation of uncleanness,
and Of lack of business principles,
does not apply to the Kaysville con-
Germ.
The trouble is the creamery product
in the territory is so small, compared
with the consumption of butter, that
he is fortunate indeed who can find a
wholesome article in the market The
call for butter reform is just, but let
| it come by the establishment of more
creameries; yet them produce butter
equal in quality to that made by our
| local creamery, and there will no
| longer be cause for the complaints that
it seems Salt Lake people are making,
neither will there be sale for a pound
of imported butter. Respectfully,
HENRY H. BLOOD.

PENSION REFORM.

The reduction of fifteen millions in
the estimate of expenses for the pen
sion list reported, marks the saving
which has been made by the revision
which has been effected through the Wig
lance of the administration. The
frauds that have been perpetrated and
which were possible under the loose
system of the Republican administra-
ton were simply astounding
The endeavors of the Democratic
party to stop those swindles on the
country were met with terrible howl
from the Republicans, and many people
were led to suppose from the misrepre-
sensations made that the Democratic
party was the soldiers deadly foe. But
that soon passed away as will other
misconceptions of the party in power,
and the truth will be all the brighter
when it comes out of the clouds of
deception which have been raised to
obscure it.
vestigating the claims of pensions of
large number of people, from which
it has been definitely proven that hosts
who have been drawing pensions of S12
month, which is the maximum under
the act of June 27, 1890, because of dis
abilities (which incapacitate them
from earning support at manual la
bor," are earning a support at manual
labor precisely as they have done for
the last twenty-five years.
The Times has secured information
concerning $50 men who are drawing
invalid pensions under this act The
circumstances in which the men are
situated, their occupations, the wages
paid them in many instances, and many
minor facts having a bearing on the
liability of the men to earn a support
have been carefully ascertained. 1t has
been found that in some towns % per
cent of those who draw the maximum
amount are among the hardest-work-
ling and most thriving of the citizens of
THE town in which they live.
Men who are drawing S12 n month
under this law have been found
working in machine shops, piling lum-
Der in lumber yards, digging sewers,
working as carpenters at regulation
wages. and carrying on farms of from
so to 400 acres.
This was rendered possible under the
Iloose manner of making affidavits, and
the order issued by Commissioner
Raum October Is. 1890, but which was
condemned early in 1898 1t was in
these words:
THAT all claimants under the act of
June q, 1890, showing a mental or ply
steal disability or disabilities of a per-
manent character not the result of their
own vicious habits, and which incapaci-
tates them from the performance of
manual labor in such degree as would
be rated under former laws at or above
Sc, and less than $12, shall be rated the

THE APRIL CENTURY.

Since the Dark Continent, the des-
erts of Australia, and the frozen north
have yielded up their secrets, the one
part of the world that may be called
terra incognita to Occidental civiliza-
ton is Tibet. There have not been
lacking daring attempts to traverse
this wild and inhospitable country, but
the difficulties of travel and the fanat-
icism of the inhabitants constantly
stand in the way. w. Woodville Rock

bet in the guise of a Chinese frontiers
man in 1SSS-S9. and in 1891 he started
to cross the wilds of Tibet, to the west
of L'hasa, in an effort to reach the
Indian frontier. Although he was
finally driven back by the lamas, he
saw much of the country and the peo-
pie. He has described his adventures
and pictured the peasantry in an arti-
