CORN AS FOOD.

What to do with the surplus produce
ton of corn in this country is some
what of a problem. People have not
yet learned its true value as food. and
the consequence is that while farmers
are getting a fair price for wheat, their
corn finds but a dull market. Few
Europeans know that 1t Is cheap and
wholesome food, and even Americans
need to be taught It's possibilities as
supply for the table.
The Orange Judd Farmer suggests
the formation of an American Maize
Exposition Corporation" for the pur-
pose of advertising to the world the
value of corn as food product The
main purpose of the corporation would
be to hold an international exposition
devoted to the corn plant and its prod
ucts, to be held at Chicago or Buffalo
in 1899. This exposition should ex-
hibit the corn plant in all stages OF
growth, and the manifold uses of the
corn grain should be shown by exhib-
its of all forms of corn food prepare
lions as well as the manufactured
products from corn grain, such as al
cohol and sirups. Included in the ex-
position plan is cooking school. to
demonstrate the new and old methods
of cooking corn and it's products. 1t
is also part of the plan suggested by
the paper mentioned to send the es-
sential portions of this exhibit to the
Paris exposition in 1900. then to Lon
don, Berlin, Vienna and finally to the
Orient.
The plan, II carried out. would be
Of great value to the agriculture of the
country, not to speak of the benefits
the world at large would derive from
1t. The millions Of workIngmen who
labor for exceedingly low wages ought
to welcome any wholesome addition &c

ropean countries to consume horse

JEWISH COLONY FOR NEVADA.

The attention of the public is be-
ing called to u new colonization scheme
in our neighbor state. Nevada. Jews
from California have obtained a large
tract of land in Smiths Valley, Lyon
county, and thirty-flve families have
started on a pilgrimage to this new
lar1 of promise. to reclaim 1t and make
1t the location OF happy homes and an
altar TO the honor of Jehovah. Accord
ing to reports these Hebrews have
great plans for the future. Their inten-
ton is said to he to invite Hebrews
from other parts of the country to
join them. They aim in course OF time
to make the whole state OF Nevada a
Mosaic commonwealth. with Israelitish
government and schools of their own
They want to have legislature OF
Jewish Elders and establish orthodox
Judaism This is said to be their ultl-
mate aim and ambition.
The country in which they are to To-
cate is described as in high degree
forbidding. The summer temperature
is 800 degrees in the shade. For miles
and miles nothing grows but
dusty sagebrush. The mountains
are barren. No plant, no brush
thrives on their slopes. They
are crumbling away and spreading
themselves over the fats. No effort so
far has been made to reclaim the
dreary plains, though thousands have
crossed them since 1Si7. This. however
does not deter these Hebrews from
taking up the battle with nature. They
believe that they will succeed just as
the Latter-da Saints succeeded. with
industry and perseverance.
The people Interested in this colonl-
cation scheme are mostly OF Austrian
Polish and Russian extraction. They
are accustomed to hardship and are
according to all accounts, determined
to succeed. They believe that In a re-
turn to the pursuits of their ancestor.
In the Holy land they will find deliv-
erance from the bondage Of poverty.

DO NOT INSULT THE PEOPLE.

The News" has purposeiy refrained
from taking part in the high school
controversy. in the firm conviction
that the people IN this community
know their own mind on that question
and need no urging to do what they
consider best for themselves and their
children. Nor would reference to the
matter have been made now, but for
the fact that a cotemporary takes oc-
caslon again to speak of past educa-
tional conditions here in a sneering
manner, leaving the reader to infer
that the predominant Church has been
rather opposed to higher education.
Nothing is further from the truth.
The history of Utah shows that the
settlers here from the very first. de-
voted all the means and time they
could spare to the education of their
children. and as their means gradually
increased and the facilities multiplied.
better schools were provided. The
schools of Utah have always
compared favorably with those Of any
other part of the country under similar
circumstances. and always will. There
is not the slightest reason for doubt
on that point. Inslnuations TO the con-
trary cannot be regarded otherwise
than as insults to the people,
The Mormon Church knows the value
of true education. 1t knows that
errors thrive in Ignorance and in the
wisdom" that falsely bears that
name, which is the twin brother Of
ignorance And inasuuch as the aim
of the Church Is to help disseminate
the truth. its leaders and members are
logically interested, perhaps more than
any others, in the distribution of
knowledge among young and old.
Opinions may differ as TO the means
by which the end is to be obtained. and
also to what extent the people ought
to be taxed for the purpose, but that
is n different question.
