Of-Duty.

1t is essential to the well being of
the physical economy that the kidneys
and bladder should be eternally ac-
tive, that they should never go ''off
duty" If they do, the kidneys fail to
secrete from the blood the watery ele-
ment and the impurities that should
be thrown off by the bladder, and both
organs suffer in organic health from
their inaction and incur dangerous
maladies. Among these are Bright's
disease of the kidneys, diabetes, reten-
ton of the urine, gravel dropsy. etc.
These are no trifies, but obstinate dis
eases. developing rapidly and termin-
ating too often fatally. To prevent or
check them the safest and most eff
fectual means is Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters, which gives a healthful i'm
petus to, but never excites the renal
organs, like the fiery, unmedicated
stimulants of commerce. Malaria. dys-
pepsia, constipation, liver trouble,
nervousness and debility are remedied
by the genial medicine, useful in con-
valescence and old age. A wine glass

TWO SPECIAL FEATURES.
These, Among Others of Equal, or
Greater Interest, Will Appear in
Next Sundays Herald.

Fuel of the Future, by H. W. Will
Jams. This is an authoritative article
of popular interest by H. w. Williams
the author of the series Of papers in
Harper's Magazine on the Develop
ment of Science During the Present
Century
Recent Investigations show that
coal, 1.-The foundation stone of modern
civilization" is being rapidly exhaust
ed. This is due largely to the fact
that it is not economically mined, 20
per cent of the yearly product going to
for preventing this needless loss, the
extinction of coal is pronounced newt
able, and scientists look upon the suns
rays as the only adequate means of
providing fuel for the coming man.
This would shift the balance of civil
ization and make the equatorial re-
gions the center of progress and leave
Europe and North America all but de-
serted by commerce and manufacture.
There will be one double-column illus
tration, made UP of half dozen pic
lures, showing methods for saving the
waste in the mining of coal and me-
chanism for utilizing the suns heat.
The Booth Dynasty, by Charles Pope
This is an article on the distinguished
Booth family. The elder Booth, Junius
Brutus jr., Edwin and John Wilkes,
described by one who knew them all
intimately. Mr. Charles Pope, the au-
thor of the article as a boy acted with
the elder Booth, was closely associated
with Junius Brutus, and acted with
Edwin as a youth. He also was asso-
ciated closely with John Wilkes Booth
and was with him a short time before
the assassination of President Lincoln.
The peculiarities, eccentricities and
splendid genius of this remarkable
family are wildly set forth in this ar
ticle, and a number of amusing anec.
dotes related. There will be one double
column Illustration, composed of pOr-
traits of the four Booths, all from
early photographs.

no INVITE THE PRESIDENT.

1t seems that an invitation is to be
extended to President Mckinley to
visit our Pioneer Jubilee celebration.
That is a very proper thing to do and
it would be q great thing should the
president accent i and attend. 1t
would do more to draw large num-
Der of visitors to the celebration than
anything else could. The presence of
the chief magistrate of the nation here
on that occasion would give Utah dis
tinction in the eyes of the whole coun-
try.
VIII the president accept an invita-
ton and come? That is the great ques-
ton. The celebration will be of such
short duration that it would necessitate
his presence here at a particular time
and would give him practically no
choice as TO time. This might prove
very inconvenient That the president
win go to the Tennessee celebration is
almost certain, and he would probably
visit that if compelled to elect which
he would attend. 1t is nearer to Wash
ington and will extend over
considerable period of time, thus
allowing the president to arrange
his visit in accordance with his
best convenience. But everybody
in Utah would be very pleased
and fiattered to have President McKin-
ley pay us visit on the occasion of
the celebration of the semi-centennial
OF the settlement of the state. No
state in the Union would welcome him
more Loyalty than Utah. Let every eff
fort be made to have him come. It is
quite safe to say that he will come if
he can: and if he cannot. the celebra-
ton will be sure to have his best
wishes for it's success.

ANOMALIES IN CRIMINAL LAW

The passing to it's second reading. in
the house of commons. of a bill to
create criminal court of appeals is
an important event in the history of
English criminal law To us in the
United States it seems the most nat
ural thing in the world that there
should be court to which person
convicted of a crime can appeal and
move for new trial where there is
probable cause. In moving the second
reading Of this bill it was explained
that where innocent persons were con-
demned to imprisonment or other forms
of punishment, 2 secret inquiry into
their cases by the home office was their
only remedy, as a new public trial was
impossible. Such an inquiry is more a.
matter of courtesy than of right. while
it should always be prisoners right to
move for a new trial on the discovery
of new evidence or the like.
In moving this second reading it was
also stated that under the present law
grossly divergent sentences were i'm
posed by different judges for the same
offenses. That is a complaint that is
quite as common in this country as in
England, and it is very difficult mat
ter to find remedy for it. The trouble
is not in the law, but in the JUDGES
There are very few laws but that AL
low judge a great deal of discretion
in imposing sentences. The purpose of
this, which is to allow all the circum-
stances connected with a case to be
taken into consideration, is a wise one
but judges will not look at the same
circumstances in the same light. Not
infrequently the remark is heard that
Judge A. is very severe on all crirni
nails, while Judge B. is more lenient
1t is not an uncommon thing to find
prisoners in the same penitentiary
serving sentences for the same crimes.
committed under almost similar cir
cumstances, whose terms of imprison-
ment are fixed at the extremes
of the law. but imposed by
different judges. When ouch IS
the case there is an evident in
Justice somewhere. either to the pris-
oner or to the state. The ingenuity of
lawmakers has not been sufficient to
such state of affairs. So long
as justice is administered by man there
will always be some injustice at times.
