THE WYOMING HORROR.

Utah joins Wyoming in mourning
over the untimely death of SO many of
her sturdy sons. The mining disaster
at Red Canyon near Evanston is one
of the most fatal in the history of the
West. The cause of the explosion is
not yet explained. A naked lamp. ex-
posed by an incautious miner, was
probably the immediate occasion.
But the mine must have been very
foul or the dreadful exp.o. on could
nos have occurred. It IS certain that
some Of the unfortunate Workmen who
have lost their lives so suddenly are
Utah people, and others are connected
with Utah families Hon. w. w. Cuff
OF Coalville has gone to the scene of
the disaster and fuller particulars will
soon be received. The Herald sincere
ly condoles with the bereaved families
who are plunged into the deepest dis
tress and horror by this disaster. The
homes thae have been made desolate.
the loss that has been sustained by
has come to fond hearts, with the de-
privation of the support of strong
hands and willing souls, make I'D
calamity that arouses the sympathy
OF the most callous. Help must be af-
zorded tc the needy, and the RESPONSE
bility fer the holocaust must be dis
covered, that justice may be done to
the living who can only mourn for the
loss of the dead.

comply with the ordinance, The Herald
would urge its most energetic enforce
ment. But inquiry has elected the fact
that efforts have been honestly made
IL that direction, details of which will
be found in another part of this paper.
] That being the case, is it not sensible
on the part of the city council to sus-
pend arrests while the matter is in
vestigated
For the delay that has been per-
mitted in bringing this matter to an
issue we have no excuse to offer It
is the present action of the authorities
that is assailed and that appears to
us to be natural and right. The sick
ening subservience to a defiant corpor-
ation," 'detestable fawning," ''scene-to
make Socialism thrive and Anarchy ex-
ultingly wave it's red flag" are but
volumes of verbal smoke as dense as
the fumes from the chimneys of the
works near by.
There is as much 'sickening SUBJ
servience" to the popular enmity
against corporations as there is dis
position to cringe before capital. One
is as despicable as the other, and the
former savors more than the latter of
Socialistic and Anarchistic sentiments.
We want the smoke nuisance abol-
ished. We have called reeatedly for
the enforcement of the law against it.
We are in the same mind now. We
have no respect for subservience to
corporate or individual wealth. But
we want to see reason and common
sense exercised, even in the enforce
ment OF the law and in the presenta-
ton of the issues of the hour. We see
no good purpose in asailing public Of
f1cers who are using wisdom in the
discharge of their duties, and we do not
think it is the province of honorable
Journalism to misrepresent them in or
der to gain little brief applause from
the unthinking multitude.

REASON IN ENFORCING LAW.

The Herald has performed its par
in protesting against the smoke nui-
sance and insisting uon the enforce
ment of the city ordinances in relation
to it. We have been and are of the
! opinion that much of the smoke and
/ SCOT that are vomited daily from the
chimneys of the electric light works
can be consumed, and great nuisance
thereby be abated.
Spasmodic attempts have been made
by the city authorities to enforce the
law in relation to this nuisance, but
the recent arrest, or threatened arrest,
of persons connected with the electric
light works has brought the matter to
a point where some settled policy will
have to be pursued. Either the ordi-
nance must be carried into execution
or it should be at once modified or re-
pealed. To leave it on the books as
a dead letter is mockery. and the
city authorities are thereby brought
into public disrepute.
But there should be reason in all
things. A week has been granted by
the case of the electric light works
which is the chief source of offence
in this particular, during which no ar
rests are to be made. We see nothing
wrong in that although contemporary
is furious over the course pursued in
this matter.
1t is as well not to go wild about
thing that is under official investi-
cation. And it will do no good to ex-
aggerate or misrepresent the facts.
When the order for the arrest Of the
violators of the ordinance was an
nounced, the intention of the electric
light company to shut down was also
announced by Mr.. Mccormick in this
way:
1.-THE company's intention was to re-
sent it by closing down, but 1 prevailed
on them not to do so until the matter
could be inquired into. 1t would have
been most unfortunate thing to have
left the city in total darkness
This is construed by our contern-
orary as a threat before which the city
authorities wilted and bowed down,
and they are held in derision before
the public for their alleged abnegation.
All that is mere newspaper sensation
alism of a very low class.
The electric light company have ex-
pended a great deal of money in smoke
consumers of different patterns, and
each has failed to accomplish what
was desired and expected. It is now
hoped that natural gas will solve the
problem. But this cannot be demon
strated without a trial. Meanwhile, If
the determination to arrest the oper-
atives at the works, every day while
the nuisance lasts, is carried into ef-
feet, what is to be done but close the |
works? Perhaps our neighbor will |
show the company how to consume
the smoke at once, or if that is i'm |
possible. how the works are to be kept |
open if arrests are made daily of those |
who operate them.

THE DUKE, SOCIETY AND WHEEL
New York World.


Society in this country has long
yearned to take tc the wheel. But the
bicycle is democratic invention. In its
inability to draw any distinction between
rider who belongs to the Four Hundred
and a rider who is just plain citizen, 1t
has been positively vulgar, and society
has been distressed
Here is where the Duke of Fife
comes in. He shows society how to ride
a bicycle and to be aristocratic at the
same time. He has taken to riding. and
in his initial efforts he is accompanied by
a footman and a page in buttons.
This is a much happier idea than If he
should wear his ducal coronet while max
ing his run. 1t differentiates him at once.
1t esta blishes his ducal position. 1t is an
idea that could emanate only from a du-
va iii'elte e; Is sgsses11orr 10 Nsw
ciety can take to the bicycle now, happy
in the conviction that bicyclers not ac-
companied by a footman and a page in
buttons will not be mistaken for men,
