KNOWLEDGE IS POWER.



II the spirit Of anarchism spreads, and
the recipes Tor making snfc bombs become
u little more widely SHOWN, we may yet
BE- able to set the discovery Of high explo-
sivcs again6t the discovery of chloroform
and to doubt whether scientific research
docs. On the whole, more evil or more good.
In truth, it does neither, knowledge being
neither more nor less than force which
produces good or evil, according to the
charactcr-which Is not material--of the
man who possesses 1t. The modern notion
that knowledge has in itself something di-
vino is as false as the ancient notion that
1t has in itself something diabolic You
can rob by tho aid of chloroform as well as
relieve pain. There are whole branches of
knowledge the diffusion Of which would
almost certainly produce pure evil.
Household murder, for instance, would
be far more common If all men and wom-
en- knew what few physicians know
about the really dangerous poisons-were
aware, for instance, that there Is a drug
proCurablc in almost every field which
Stimulates the effect of one common vari-
city Of heart disease, the suspension of VI
tally through anmmia. And suicide
which, whether it is crime or not, is GER
tanly great evil, would be multiplied
tcnrold if every one knew how it is pos
sihlC to terminate life instantaneously and
painlcssly through means which no law
against poisons will ever touch, and which
can be obtained in every street. There are
no means in existence of keeping such
facts, when once generally known, from
the knowledge of the bad, and it is they,
and not the good, who will want to use
them.
The world indeed may one day, and at
no very distant period, have awful evil
dcncc of the truth of the theory that
knowledge is only n weapon neither bad
nor good. 1t is most probable, 1t is nearly
certain, that means of destroying life on a
vast SCALE either by the multiplication of
existing forces-the maxim gun-or by the
use of asphyxiating shells, OF, as half a
dozen novelists have already suggested, by
explosives directed from aerial machines
will be discovered and eagerly utilized by
the able men who in every country are
striving to Improve" material of war.
No possible precaution would keep such
processes secret for long, and they may
fall into the hands of the Chinese, the
Arabs or Of the anarchists, with, as result,
either the subjugation Of the world or its
partial depopulation. 1t would be an aw-
full illustration of that irony of fate which
sometimes seems to preside over the desti-
mics Of men if science killed civilization,
but that is by no means one of the impos-
sible occurrences. -London Spectator.

IT is we'll enough to talk of try
to allay excitement and restore
quiet. To make effort in that
direction is commendable. But
permanent peace and safety are
what we must have. To gain
these it is imperative that the bust
ness of crushing the instruction be
vigorously pushed to a positive
termination.

AN EDITOR whose political car

a paper in sympathy with the Gov

The completion OF a telephone
around Hawaii is, next to the
building of new roads, the best
thing that has been done on that
island. Capital very rarely pen
etrates undeveloped territory
unless there are means Of getting
there, and the Government can
not expect to get people to in
vest their money unless there are
facilities for transacting business.
Take Kailua, for instance, which
is in the midst of the Kona coffee
industry. To get lumber from
the landing to the plantations
two or three miles upland
costs ten dollars a thousand.
If there were good roads
this cost would be materially
reduced. A telephone line
around Hawaii will be a great
convenience to the shippers
along the coast as well as to the
steamer companies.
The ladies of Honolulu who
are interested in wood carving
will find it to their interest and
advantage to examine our stock
OF Tools used in making bits
of art out of rough lumber.
These Tools were imported es-
pecially for some ladies who
have abandoned crochetting for
more solid work. Next to paint
ing, wood carving has taken a
prominent part in the daily life
OF the average lady in the Unit
ed States and the fad seems to be
advancing toward these Islands.
New inventions are constantly
coming forward to reduce the
work about the kitchen. One Of
the latest that has come to our
notice is Fish Soaler. With
the advent of this article the
short bladed knife welded by a
little brown man will cease to
be the means used in removing
the scales from fish. This little
arrangement resembles short
saw blades placed close together
with a handle on the end, the
maans oberaudi is to take the tail
of the fish between the thumb
and finger of the left hand and
the Fish SCaler in the right,
sweep it gently once or
twice over this scales and they
disappear as if by magic.
twenty-five cents invested in one
of these scalers will save your
cook lots of time in preparing his
fish for dinner.
Let us again call your attention
to the merits of the wonderful
Wertheim Sewing Machine. 1t
runs easier and does more work
in less time than any sewing
machine made. 1t is the only
one that will sew three distinct
stitches without the bother of
changing thread, needle or shut
tie. 1t has the handsomest
table and the most simple mech
anism, and sells for less money
than a common article that sews
but one stitch. II there has
been a machine invented that
approaches the Wertheim in any
particular it has never been
brought to notice. The Vert
helm is not sold in the United
States for the reason that the
duty is so high that it is prohibi-
tory. The people over there
want it, but the price is too high.
We have an advantage in this
respect because our duties are
within reason, and necessities are
not strictly barred out. We can
sell a Wertheim machine low
enough to make it within reach |
of every one. If you are in
need of a sewing machine you
had better examine ours.

The action of the clerk of the pro-
bate court and the judge in insisting
that all old estates should at once be
| settled is beginning to bear fruit. AS
a result of the mailing of several no.
tices yesterday was sort Of field day
in that branch of the legal domain.
Several letters were received from
those who have the management of
property, and among them are the fol-
lowing:
John D. Ritter, the administrator of
the estate of Rose H. Ritter, sends word
that he will attend to the estate as
soon as he can make arrangements.
Thomas Mexican has three estate mat
tiers on his hands which he agrees to
attend to as soon as he can make the
necessary arrangements, the same be-
ing the guardianship Of Charlotte
Riley, Mary V. NJ. Jackman and Steph-
en- Pope.
G. w. Snow, in relation to the estate
of the late Zerubabel Snow, writes
that his fathers estate was first in the
courts in 1888. The last order was the
appointment of appraisers. Mr.. Snow
suggests that the court appoint a new
administrator.
P. L. Williams, the attorney in the
estate of George Smith, says that as
soon as he can get through with GER
tain legal matters which are engross-
ing his attention he will appear and
make arrangements for the closing up
of matters in relation to this property.
S. P. Teasdel is heard from in rela-
ton to the estate of Henry Lewis.
w. c. Hall, as guardian of the es-
tates of William Lenhiem, and Annie
and James Ryan, mentions that Father
Kelley is absent from town, but as
soon as he gets here he will appear and
fix things up.
In the matter of the estate and
guardianship of William l.. Price,
Hiram Yeager appeared yesterday and
exhibited a receipt from his ward and
settled up all matters pertaining to the
estate. The ward in this case attained
his majority years ago and the papers
have been on file ever since. Nothing
was done in the case and it, with many
others of a like character, have drag
ged along until notice was sent out
that something must be done. The
guardian was discharged.
Distribution was asked for by the
commissioners in partition of the es-
tate Of Levi Reed. This matter has
been pending for long time, too. The
property was quite valuable, and on
the showing made will be divided as
follows: To Augusta Reed, real estate
and personal property to the value of
So, 099.43. The balance is divided be-
tween the remaining heirs in the sum
of S442.7 each. There are fourteen of
the children and other benefciaries.
The personal property consists of
stocks in the Utah Sugar company, z.
c. NJ. 1. and other institutions of Utah.
The hearing on the petition has been
fixed for June 8. The petition will
doubtless be granted. as all the heirs
have joined in petition to that effect,
asking that such action be taken.
Other orders in probate yesterday
were as follows:
In the estate of Mary c. Whitney,
Horace G. Whitney was appointed adj
ministrator. as prayed for, with bonds
in the sum of $500.
In the estate of Henry Alberto Wool
ley, Rodney Badger, George T. Odell
and Rulon S. Wells were appointed ap-
praisers.

MAKING SOME MOVES.
Utah Power Company People Pre-
pairing For Active Operations.


Preparations are now being made in
earnest for the carrying out of the
plans Of the Utah Power company, re-
Gently organized in this city, with
million dollars capital, for the purpose
of Harvesting the waters of the Big
Cottonwood creek, and the engineers
of the company are hard at work pre-
pairing plans and specifications, with
the details as to costs, for SUBMISSION
to another meeting of the board OF
directors. to be held within a few days.
The board has just held a meeting, at
which it considered many of the de-
tails connected with the Inauguration
of such an enterprise, and the decision
was reached that when once COM
1nenced the work should be pushed to
Immediate completion. There are sew
eral very important matters which re-
ouire very careful attention before the
installation Of the plant is COM
menced.
AS is very generally known, The
Utah company was organized Tor the
purpose of taking the waters OF Big
Cottonwood at a point some little as
lance below the site of the proposed
works of the Big Cottonwood Power
company and throwing it into a pipe
line of about three miles in length,
through which it is to be delivered at
the power wheels in the works to be
located at the mouth of the canyon.
Since the organization of the COM
pany several of the officers have gone
up over the proposed pipe line and
made inspections of the sites selected
for the works, and President Arm
strong. in company with Superinten-
dent Arnold and an engineer, devoted
the greater part of day to an in
spection of the work already done and
that laid out. A small force of work
men is now in the employ of the COM
pany and engaged in opening up the
trench for the pipe line. Just as soon
as the details are settled upon this
force is to be greatly increased and
an effort will be made to have the
plant in and the power ready for de-
livery early in the fall.
Fair progress is being made on the
reservoir and outlets of the Big Cot
tonwood Power company, above The
Stairs. A considerable force has been
steadily employed by the company and
the energies of the men are now di-
rected to the placing Of the gates re-
Gently sent out, which are to set in
the mouth of the outlet, or drain
tunnel. With these shut-offs in place
the company will be enabled to fill its
reservoir before the irrigation season
