ANOTHER VIEW.
growth.

The laws of the state require that all
children between the ages of six and
fourteen years shall attend school a
certain number of weeks each year;
and this requirement of the law is
pretty generally complied with, as all
feel that it is a wise one Now, many
children complete the eight grades of
the public schools before they are
thirteen years old; last spring one lit
tie girl completed all the grades quite
while before she was twelve. There
are children who finish the grades be-
fore they have attained the school age
limit to go to school if the high school
is abolished. Even if it is suggested
that they so to the preparatory depart
ment of the university, which some
seem to think is an omnium- gatherum,
| this will be found impracticable, be-
cause it is not deemed advisable by the
university authorities to admit any one
there under the age Of fourteen. If the
children who come from the grade
schools before they are fourteen can
not go to a high school, where shall
they go? The law says they must go
to school. but if there is no school to
| go to. what is to be done? 1t may be
answered that they can be sent to pri-
vate schools, but that is not what the
law contemplates, though the option of
sending children to a private school
exists. But the cost of sending a child
to a private school will far exceed the
amount of taxes that the parent would
have to pay as his proportion for the
support of the high school
The requirement of the law that
children shall attend school until they
have reached a certain age puts a new
phase on this high school question, one
that has escaped notice.

rRAMPs REFUSE WORK.

.oThe marshal of Springville went
into a camp of tramps yesterday, ana
stated Deal Bros. & Mendenhan had
some work which they wished done,
and wanted to know how many of their
trampships would work. They were all
of the same mind as their leader, VINO
answered: eve are not looking Tor
work" Yet the people continue TO
feed them, says the Provo Enquirer
OF course these tramps were not look
ing for work; they probably never dlo
look for work. and they certainly never
will The marshal of Springville must
either be a new hand at the business
or a great lover of good joke. Tramps
work? Never And why should they !
People work to earn living; the
tramp gets his living without working.
The marshal of Springville offers
lot of tramps work and they decline it,
Why Because there are plenty OF
good but misguided people in Spring
Vile who work long and hard, and who
are willing to divide their earnings
with the tranps who will not work;
and the tramp, who is no fool, knows
this. In refusing work he displays
much more intelligence than those
who supply his wants for nothing.
Those who do this have kind hearts
and great sympathy for those who are
unfortunate and in distress, but their
kind heartedness and sympathy are
misplaced; that is all.
This incident related by our Provo
contemporary should make it perfectly
plain to the people of Springville and
Utah county that tramps are nothing
but imposters; and this is what they
are with rare exceptions. 1t should
also make it plain to them that sup
plying the wants Of tramps only in
creases their number, and that the way
to decrease them is to cease to supply
their wants. The charity that is spent
upon them is wasted, it's sole effect he
ing to serve as a rich fertilizer to &
noxious weed of too rank natura

TALES OF THE DAY.
How the Battle Was Won.

Chicago Post: "What has become of the
womans brigade?' demanded the gen
eral.
The orderly saluted and pointed to the
rear.
Il regret to report. sir, he explained,
that the enemy has stolen a march on US.
During the night some Of their scouts sue
ceeded in making a detour and getting to
the rear of us, where they erected num-
Der of large mirrors. That fact reaching
the ears of the woman's brigade just as
the advance was ordered the amazons
fell back in great disorder, the temptation
to see whether their hats were on straight
being more than they could resist How
ever, tonight
well, what about tonight?"
Tonight l would suggest that you have
the mirrors quietly transported to the en-
eInys rear.
But the enemy has no Woman's brigade
to be drawn away from the attack"
"True," replied the orderly, but you
forget that the enemy will then be be,
tween your own woTnan's brigade and
the mirrors. and that surely is an unten-
able position for any man or body OF
men,"
The plan being carried out, nothing
could Withstand the charge of the wom-
ans brigade the following morning.

with which to denounce such person
There isn't a person in Utah but
knows that beneath the smooth surface
of our political and social life there
are some currents, and that they run
in the old channels. Nobody cares to
disturb the smooth surface, hoping that
eventually the currents underneath will
cease to be and all become stilled and
quiet. But there is no use to tell peo-
pie who live in Utah that our erst-
while troubled waters have reached alb
solute quietude, for they have not.
Nobody cares to stir UP the dying
embers of the past, but there are some
there just the same. There is not a
paper in the state that has done more

THERE SHOULD BE AN INVEsTI-
CATION.

Some of the Denver papers are not at
all in favor of having an investigation
into the circumstances of the killing of
the Ute Indians. The News is one of
these. 1t says that whatever other cir
cumstances an investigation may dis
close, certain bold facts remain-that
the Indians were off their reservation:
that they were violating Colorado's
game lays: that the game wardens
were acting in the line of their duty,
and that the Indians We're defying the
officers in their efforts to enforce the
laws, and so invited a conflict
Some of these bold facts" are in dis
pute, and that is the very reason why
an investigation is called for. If they
are bold facts" there is no reason in
the world to discourage an investiga-
ton; on the contrary, such an investi-
cation would relieve the game wardens
of all blame, while the effect on the IN
dams would be salutary. They would
realize that the white man is fair. but
that they must obey the laws or take
the consequences. If an investigation
We're had, the Indians could state their
side of the case, and they have side,
and all the facts that do not stand out
in bold relief could be ascertained.
AS things now stand, the people do
not know where the blame for the kill
ing lies. What they cannot understand,
knowing the Indian nature as they do,
is that in an encounter between game
wardens and I-dians, half dozen In
dams should have been killed or
wounded, While no game warden was
hurt. By all means, there should be an
investigation. no matter what the re-
suit.

Ogden Standard It IS said that an
American company with a capital of 81,
100000 has been organized to establish a
boot and shoe factory in Mexico, where all
the new material, together with the labor
can be purchased on silver basis, the
manufactured product to be sold in the
United States and Europe on a gold basis.
The factory, an assured success, will do
more TO educate the shoe districts of
New England in the theory of free coin
age than a world of silver literature, for
the only way to touch the heart and brain
of the average gold bug is to touch his
pocket book.

But now they're al lhatia' another,
