PRISON-MADE GOODS
Manufacturers Interested in the Pas
sage of the Protective
Pill

Julian Sonntag, president OF the Manu-
facturers' and Producers Association, is
doing all in his power to protect the State
from being made dumping ground for
convict made goods of the Eastern States.
His efforts are equally directed against
free labor of this State competing with the
convicts of California prisons. The great
fight. be believes, will be to put through
the next Congress the bill to protect free
labor and the industries. To this end the
officers of the association are working and
from all appearances an able second will
be secured from the other large industrial
and commercial organizations of this City,
At the next session of Congress a large
delegation of representative manufac-
turers will go to Washington to fight in
the cause OF the bill. 1t will, no doubt
be amended in several particulars, but at
present it stands in the following form:
A bill to protect free labor and the indus
tries in which it is employed from the injuri-
GUS effect of convict competition by confining
the sale of goods, wares and merchandise
manufactured by conyictla labor to the State or
Territory in which they are produced.
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of
Representatives OF the United States of Amer
lea in Congress assembled, that every person
who knowingly transports, or causes to be de-
lvered for transportation, for commercial pur-
poses, from any StaLe or territory In which
they are in whole or in par. manufactured
any goods, wares or merch andise, In whole or
in part the product of convict labor, in any
penitentiary, prison or reformatory. or other
establishment in which convict labor IS
employed, into any other State or Terri
tory or into the District OF Columbia, shall be
deemed guilty of q misdemeanor, and upon
conviction thereof shall be punished b. fine
of not less than $3.50 nor more than $500, or
by imprisonment not exceeding one year, or
by both such fine and Imprisonment, at the
discretion of the court, and such wares, goods
or merchandise shall be forfeited to the United
States; provided, that this act shall not apply
10 unmanufactured agricultural products.
Sec. 2. That it shall be the duty of the sew
ersl United States District Attorneys to prose
cute all violations of this act when any person
shall make the complaint under oath, and the
same shall be heard before any District or
Circuit Court in the United States or Terri
torial Court holden within the district in
which the violation OF this act has been COM
mitted
Sec. 3. That this act shall take effect at the
expiration of one year from and after it's pas
sage.

OGDEN CANYON ACCIDENT
Cable Tramway Car Escapes
and Dashes Down a Steep
Incline.
Distinguished Guests of the City In.
jured While Being Shown
the Sights.

OGDEN, UTAH, Oct. 21.-Ogden Canyon
was the scene of serious accident this
afternoon, by which three men were
slightly and one seriously, if not fatally,
injured.
Arrangements had been made for a gala
time in honor of the presence of the city
and county officials of Salt Lake, who
came at the invitation of Ogden City TO
inspect the work of the Pioneer Electric
Power Company. The party left Ogden
about $50 and proceeded to the canyon,
and after going through the. machine
shops had dinner, and then started up the
mountain-side.
About three miles up the canyon there
is cable tramway. which is used to carry
up pipe for the pipe line, and two parties
of eleven made the trip up the 300-foot in
cline (45 deg.) on the car. One party re-
turned. safely, but on the last trip, when
the car was about 200 feet from the bottom
of the incline, the brake on the cylinder
| around which the cable was wound broke
and the car sped wildly to the bottom.
| The track and cable cross the Ogden
River at the bottom, and as the car
crossed the river, Glenn Schramm, promi-
nent Ogden citizen, was thrown out ana
fell distance OF twenty feet onto the
rocks below.
The car struck the post at the end of the
incline and was thrown back over the
river, where Councilman Jones, also of
Ogden, was thrown out. Two others of
the party were hurt slightly, but the rest
were only stunned. Schramm was got
out OF the river as soon as possible and
brought to town. Several of his ribs are
broken and he is bruised all over and in
jured internally, but whether fatally or not
cannot now be said.

PORT TOWNSEND, WASH, Oct. 21.-
The tramp steamship Aramapoora, now
due from Nagasaki, Japan, will load a
general cargo at Tacoma for Central
American ports. 1t is believed that the
vessel is under secret charter to the Pa.
cific Mail, which is heartily opposed to the
success that is being met with by the
Puget Sound and Central American line.
This companys steamship Transit has
been making deep inroads into the
revenues of the Pacific Mail, which until
quite recently held full sway on the Cen
tral American coast, and it is believed
that the Aramapoora has been secretly
chartered by it to run the Transit off the
route.

THE STATE HERALD GROWS.

The month of January has been pros porous one for the State Herald. The cash receipts in the counting room for the month just closed were heavier than they have been during any previous month running back over period Of four years. A large number of new sub scribers were added to the list than in any month before probably in ten years. The advertising patronage of the paper far exceeded that of any January before since the boom days of Birmingham.
 Our generous patrons can justly re- gard the State Herald as their own enter prise. We assure them that the paper will continue to be operated in their ln- terest and run as their organ.
 The management has determined to keep step with the forward march in progressive journalism, and to this end has engaged the services of first-class artist, and in future photographs and sketches will be made one of the speelal features of the paper.

GIVE DUE CREDIT.

And now the. two. postmasters are at tributng the opening of the Warrior riv- er to the exertions of Congressman Clarke. Mir. Clarke has been an active representative, but it is invidious to give. him exclusive credit for work which was inaugurated long before he went to congress. The waterways convention at Tuskaloosa,, over which Judge Toulman of Mobile presided, took decisive action in this matter long before MT. Clarke ever said word in its advocacy. The merit of opening the Warrior is due most large ly to Mr. Horace Harding of Tuskaloosa. and to Major Damrell, the United States engineer -ats rMobile.- and to the Mohile' board of trade and cotton exchange. The. work drifted along slowly until it waS placed upon the permanent contract list. This was done through the efforts of Senators -Morgan ana. Pugh and thos
 gentlemen are entitled to special credit for the prompt completion of the dred87, ing at Mobile and the expeditions bundz ing of the dams and locks upon the War; rior and upon the Coosa. MT. Clarke was very active and serviceable in pushingI the appropriations alpng, and it was for tunate that he succeeded Hon. Jam 4s| Taylor Jones upon the river and harbor' committee. The first appropriation for Mobile hArbor was secured by Congress-' man Buck, a republican. just after the war. The next was secured by Congress- man Bramberg. Then when Congress- men Jones and afterwards Herndon rep resented the Mobile district the work was placed upon the.resulariist and the com mercial bodies, with the advice and as- sistance of United States Engineer Dam rell. kept the ball rolling. By all means let justice be done to those who bore the burden of these great works.

His artistic gifts came to him natur- ally enough, for his father and an uncle won high standing by their work, first as painters of portraits and later by their skill in painting animals.

 The Catholic Review, New York: Dr. Albert Bach told the Medico-Legal con- gress at New York that physicians have the moral right to end life when the pa- tient is suffering from an incurable, pain full and agonizing disease.

This is the doctrine of the authorized teacher of ethics. the Catholic church, and Is in obedience to the commandment-thou shalt not kill.
