a MOST Valuable DEPOSIT.

The University of Utah has been
made the depository of the very ex-
tensive collections of geological and
meteorological specimens exhibited by
the territory in both the Columbian
Exposition and the NGidwinter Fair.
We regard this disposition of the
specimens as a very proper step on
the part of the Utah Worlds Fair
Commission. Collections of this sort
rapidly lose value if not properly
placed; the specimens are apt to be
scattered, the cabinet deteriorates for
want of care: and soon there is moth
ing but ruin to record the labor of
the collectors. Natural history speci
mems have a higher use than that of
mere ornament; they are properly the
tools Of teaching and demonstration.
In the particular case under consid-
GRAFTON the collections have been sent
to the right place. At no other insti-
tuition in Utah are greater attention
given and more thorough courses Of
instruction offered in the important
branches OF geology, mineralogy and
their allied subjects than at the Uni
versity of Utah.
Before this very valuable acquisition
the museum of the university showed
a fine and extensive assortment of
choice specimens; and the very large
collections of the Deseret Museum
have been placed within easy and free
access for university work. But all
these facilities combine to give our
state institutions of higher education
one of the finest museum equipments
possessed by any college or university
Of corresponding age and profession.
Had the Utah Worlds Fair collec-
lions of minerals and rocks been dis
persed, a part being sent hither and a
portion there, but little practical good
could have been produced. AS it is, a
fine addition has been made to the
equipment of an institution at once de-
serving and appreciative. Besides the
minerals themselves, the University re-
ceives the entire lot Of magnificent dis
play cases. oak, glass and bronze, in
which the collections were shown at
the Fairs, as also the extensive and
invaluable series of photographs and
other Illustrations of mining and mil
ling processes. The University and the
people of Utah are to be congratulated
on this valuable acquisition to the
leading educational establishment of
the state.

HARMONY IN VIEW.

The prospects of an anicable set
tlement of the disputes between the
people who live on the borders of Utah
lake and the canal companies inter
ested in the use of water from the
lake, in this county, will prove very
gratifying to all parties Immediately
concerned, and also to onlookers who
value peace and wish the prosperity of
their neighbors.
The vexed questions now likely to
be permanently settled have been a
cause of friction between the people
of the two counties for many years.
In order to use the water in the canals
which have been constructed, dam
had to be erected In the Jordan river,
and this had the effect to raise the
level of the lake, it is claimed, to the
damage of the farmers on the lake
shore. The matter was referred to ar
bitration several years ago, and was
supposed to have been settled, so that
Utah lake would be considered q nu-
tual reservoir A monument was
erected to mark the height at which
water might be maintained, a commits
sion was appointed to arrange as to
damages, and it is claimed that the
terms of the agreement have not been
complied with.
1t will be remembered that The Her
aid took strong ground against,-a de-
cision rendered in the District court
at Provo in favor of George T. Peay
for $3.50. for alleged damages by rea-
son of raising the water Of the lake.
Salt Lake city and five canal conpan-
les in this county were the defendants.
The case is pending on appeal to the
Supreme court and a decision is anX-
iously looked fer.
Encouraged by that verdict, other
farmers commenced to plant suits, so
application was made for an injunc-
ton against such proceedings,
and a suit in equity was entered to
determine the hight at which the
canal companies had the right under
the old contract and agreement to
keep the water. On the part of Salt
Lake city and the canal companies,
Messrs. Richards and Richards, Judge
Sutherland and City Attorney Hoge
appeared. TIL defendants were repre-
scented by Messrs. David Evans, Saxey
and Edwards, D. D. Houtz and I. w.
Kenward.
But as the purpose in view was a
friendly settlement of the disputes,
counsel conferred and after working
at the matter two days, the partial
settlement was effected, particulars of
which will be found in our Provo cor
Irespondence. The difference in the
hight of the water mark commended
for by the two parties was ten inches.
After thorough examination. counsel
for the Salt Lake county people be-
came satisfied that fairness demanded
a concession that two inches more than
was right had been taken, and there
fore expressed willingness to concede
so much.
The Utah county folks accepted

istrates would be doing well If they
imposed heavy penalties upon persons
who violate the laws for the protection
of person and property in assaults
upon Cinnamon. A few examples in
that direction might have salutary
effect.
There is not only much brutality in
this class of ruff1anism but a great
deal Of cowardice. The victims are
usually weaker physically, than their
tormentors, and it is for that reason
they are so set upon. The law is for
the protection of the feeble against
the strong and should be executed in
that spirit. There ought to be vigor-
Gus public sentiment in this direction.
People overflow with sympathy
animals that are cruelty used; there
should be at least as much pity for
the abused little yellow man.

PITY THE CHINAlIAN.

The Chinese are under a cloud. The
little brown men from Japan are max
ing things very unpleasant for them,
and the Japanese star is just now in
the ascendant. Numbers do not count
against intelligence and skill, and the
probability is that the conquerors will
be able pretty nearly to dictate their
own terms as to peace. However, the
interested nations of Europe will have
some say in the matter and both orr
entail powers must pay regard to their
conclusions.
But it is not about the Chinese at
home we intended to talk. 1t is the
Chinese in America and more particu-
larry in Utah about whom we wish
to say a few words. They have a
right to be here, supposing they have
come under legal conditions, and while
they are here and obey the laws they
are entitled to the same protection
which would be afforded an English
man or Dutchman. Race or color
has nothing to do with that.
It is an unpleasant fact however
that the common Chinese resident is
not treated with the same considera-
ton that is shown to the European
He is an object of derision and very
often Of violence. Boys pelt him,
hoodlums insult him, human brutes
assault him, while a large portion OF
the public look on and laugh, and
even the police seem to think, ''He is
only Johnny"
It is true that there is not much
utilization between the yellow and
white races. There need not be. But
people of the superior race do not
show their superiority in their actions
toward the heather Chinee." The yell
low fellows are usually peaceable, in
dustrious, frugal, temperate and clean.
They have their vices, in many things
they are repugnant to most of US, but
that forms no sufficient reason for the
Entertainment they so often receive.
Let them alone. That would be ou1
advice. Also teach the boys to lei
them alone. It Is disgrace to ou1
civilization that they should be in con-
slant dread of white sayagery. Mag

And the sun shOne full on her golden hair,
And the thought arose within my mind
That twas beauty and love that placed
mankind
So far above in the regious of power,
And made him see beyond the hour
In which he lived and in which he
wrought
With all his soul, and oft for naught
And I turned to her who sat at my. side
And took her hand, and as she sighed
/ told her my thought, and told her true,
But she looked at me with laughing eye
And said: 81 will live, but my beauty
And when VIII that is gone you will care no
For the one whom now you swear you
adore"
Then told her tale Of an eastern maid,
Whose beauty was rare. so rare it's said
That from far and near the princes came
To lay at her feet all they could claim,
And to swear that their love would last
ing be
Until hell was cold and dry the sea,
Until mid the sounding OF drum and
They would bear to his grave old Father
Time.
But one among all would not give this
But silently sat, and cen seemed 10th
knew
That love like his was felt by few.
And BECAUSE he was stubborn she was
cold,
And So. one day his lands he sold
And left for parts where dangers dwell,
And left her, but why he could not tell.
| For she loved him, and when she saw him
so,
Her lily hand, as white as snow,
She raised in prayer, but he needed not,
And passed away, and then she forgot
All the joys of the past, and day by day
Her beauty waned and faded away,
And one by one the suitors said farewell,
And left her alone on memories to dwell.
A year had passed, and though of beauty
shorn
She waited and chung to a hope forlorn,
Till one bright day at the palace door
She saw a form, and minute more
She was in the arms of her truant love:
And he kissed her and called on the gods
above
To witness that his love would as lasting
| be
AS the light of the sun and the roll OF
| the sea.
And I turned to the maid who sat by my
side.
And took her hand, and as she sighed
I asked her TO place her hand on her
heart
And tell me true Ger we did part
If love like mine was to be cast aside,
And I sent out to drift with tide;
But she shook her head, and two souls
full of bliss
We're united forever in passionate kiss.
