sharp rebuke yesterday In a decision named down
bv Justice Deekman. In which the Court holds that
the auctoueers have been charging iiegai fees Tor

that under the law they are liable for damages In
every case where these Illegal fees were charged.
The case at issue was that OF Norman Hubbard.

objection to the charges
Justice Beekmans decision Is In part "a follows:

Statehood will favorably affect the
growth and development of both the
city and territory, and there is already
commencing quite an amount OF actiV-
ity in the purchase of real estate. Far
seeing people are predicting rapid
growth, and are investing in advance
of the rise of values which it is be-
lieved will come with the admission of
the state to the Union. An enterpris-
ing company is now piping in natural
gas from a point fourteen miles north
of the city, and natures wonderful fuel
will. within the next thirty days be in
general use for manufacturing light
ing and fuel purposes. Seven gas wells
are already operating, and the aggre-
gate Of their output per day is about
100000 feet of gas. The opinion
seems to be general that Salt Lake is
destined to be one of the great cities
of the west, and no doubt a large
amount of investments will be made in
the new state of Utah by companies
and individuals who have been prohib-
tied by law or prejudiced by other
means against placing capital under
the territorial form of government.
The conservatism of the Salt Lake
people has heretofore protected their
city against the effects of the trans
itory booms which have wrecked so
many cities so that the people are
practically without debt. The fact
that the tax rate for all purposes is
only 21a mills will be an inviting cir
cumstance to investors.

Lyrics"
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1895-04-28

Ten years ago the writer was one of
a party of three printers who were
idling an hour away in watching the
arrival and departure of emigrants in
one of the great depots of Chicago.
These came from nearly every country
in continental Europe. Scandinavians
and Germans predominating. not one
of whom could speak other than his
native tongue. Clad in the coarsest
material. shoG with wooden shoes, and
sitting around on the boxes and
trunks which contained their worldly
possessions, these strangers in a
strange land waited patiently the hour
of their departure for the far west of
America.
The printers watching these prepar-
ationS with no less amusement than in
tereSt, were at that time in steady en-
ployment and able to s>srn 81 a day
every day they worked. Not one but
could. with d weeks wages, buy out
the entire family outfit which these
foreigners were taking along 10 eStab-
lish themselves in new country.
Five years after this transpired. two
men came into the town of Albert
Lea, Minnesota. on a load of hay.
The one who drove the team was a
Scandinavian farmer, who could talk
English we'll enough to describe to
his companion how he came into Chi
cago wearing wooden shoes. The
other was the printer who remem-
bered the incident at the depot The
Scandinavian owned the load of hay
and the land it grew on. The printer
owned the clothes he wore and the
price of a nights lodging. He was
seeking employment at his trade,
fully believing if that were not OBJ
tainaIble at Albert Lea, he would be
obliged to continue his journey.
To the printers mind and inclination
there was absolutely nothing in the
wide world for him but setting type
and spending his wages as quick as
they were earned.
Talk as we may about the social
conditions which aggravate the dis
tinction between wealth and poverty,
can it be charged that the abuse of
wealth has produced on the one hand
a tramp printer and on the other a
naturalized landowner in the exam
pie presented by these two persons
on the load of hay? Five years be-
fore, which of these two men had the
advantage in the strength of oppor-
tunities opened to industry-the

The writer is not talking parallels

ditToq of skilled labor. Nor IS il con-
fined to those who, reealiug them
selves foot-lose, live and spend IN the

mechanic must now seek because none
other is to be found. If he be a
brainy man with that courage which
overcomes all obstacles, the mechanic

LONG LIVED PEACHES.

An Ohio man who owns or controls
seventy-five acres of peach orchards, and
is most successful believes that the trees
can be kept in productive condition for
thirty years by proper pruning He cuts
back severely each year, leaving only two
or three buds of the new growth. He
never let's the trees get over ten or
twelve feet high, and as the tree gets
aged removes some old wood to keep the
top within bounds. He claims that he
can renew a tree with entirely new wood
in the top within five years, and thus
keep the tree vigorous. BY cutting back
TO two or three buds he thins the fruit,
and believes that this is the only true
method of thinning fruit.

larger eastern cities, where poor men

which to plant vegetables. are moro
practical and humane in their results,
Where there is a will there is a
way, and if the Board of Labor would
but inaugUrate a scheme on the lines
here indicated and Cooperate with
the promoters of irrigation enter

every unemployed man TO own his
home and forever be separated from
