A STATE BOARD OF TRADE.

In another column appears a letter
from DR.. Hough, which ought to be
read by every business man of this
city.
1t is pointed and deserved criticism
of the lack of public spirit, without
which no city or community can hope
to thrive With all the wealth, re-
sources, beauties, advantages and pos
sibilities of Utah; with so many things
to advertise and talk about; with so
many natural treasures peculiar to the
state and city, there is little or no eff
fort made to improve them or to induce
others to come and undertake the
work
Other states with less have made a
great deal more through enterprise and
public spirit. 1t does seem that a little
push, a renewed effort, would benefit
the business men more than the exer-
ton would cost them.
A chamber of commerce for the
state, with headquarters in the CAPT
tai. would be a project worth consid-
ering.
Utah must not go backwards. 1t
should not even stand still.

THE SONG OF THE SIREN.

The sirens will sing Of protection and
conquest. They will sit on the rock
of ReDublicanism and beckon to the
friends of silver. Some will yield and
fall into the arms OF their island en-

chorus and call for others.
But thare is a light to fix the gaze
UPON. one star By which TO navigate
in this campaign. 1t is the rising star
of silver. Never mind the sirens. Never
mind their victims. Let them sing.
The silver issue is paramount. 1t
means more to the people than any
other. Every effort is made to obscure
it Inducements are being held out for
silver men TO return to the Republican
organization. Appeals are made to
prejudice and passion. Early associa-
tions are pleaded and partisan hatreds
invoked Nor is this done in every case
without effect.
In some the party ties are stronger
than devotion to principle. Even when
the Republican party pledged itself to
the gold standard at St. Louis, there
We're men who never reiincuished the
idea of vending their way back to the
camp in the course Of time. It was
necessary 70 find an excuse for doing
so, perhaps, but men who are deter
mined to do a thing are generally able
10 give an excuse.
There were others who admitted that

Of the white metal was through one or
the other Of the two great national par

IRRIGATION OR CONQUEST.

me irrigation congress at Cheyenne
has considered questions, the import
ance of which should not be overlooked
in the excitement of a political cam
paign- Issues which are as important
to the people of the west as any arising
from the war were discussed, and their
direct influence upon this country is
second only to that of bimeta,lism.
The disposition of arid lands suscep-
tible of reclamation by irrigation is a
problem of practical politics. 1t is be-
lieved that hundred millions of acres
of public lands could be watered with
profit under scientific system of stor-
age and control.
In the office of the secretary of the
interior there is report on file show
ing that the public domain is almost
two billion acres, and that over 500. =
100000 acres, exclusive of Alaska, are
still vacant. At least one-fifth of this
could be reclaimed by a conservative
use of water.
Even where irrigation is practiced
with the best success, water is wasted
with a prohigacy that can only he
checked by stringent laws energetically
enforced Here in Utah where the re-
suits OF irrigation are the marvel of all
beholders. the life-giving elixir of the
land is allowed to run to waste the
greater part of the year. When winter
has been generous to the mountains
and their pockets bulge with snow, the
need of economy in this particular Is
not felt. But when the streams run low
and the rivers dwindle down to rivu-
lets, and the fields are parched, and
the leaves wither in the orchards, it is
time 10 pause and try to study out a
better wav.

Another summer like the one we have
passed through will aid the professor

There is more water going to waste
in Utah every year than is used in aid
of husbandry. II is possible to store

AN UNKNOWN HERO.
Lost His Regiment, But Fought With
the Tenth.

the Tenth.
Washington Star: Lieutenant Colonel
Sugar b. Kellogg of the Tenth regular
| infantry, who commanded his regiment
during the terrific fighting at Santiago
July l, in which the Tenth suffered Sc
we're loss, is at the Arlington, and re-
lates an incident of the famous battle
that is worthy of a place in history, as
illustrating one characteristic of the
American soldier that distinguishes
him from the soldier of any other coun-
try. The incident related by the colonel
is as follows: During the hottest of
the fight, when Spanish bullets were
flying thickest and men were falling,
killed or wounded, a private of the
Ninth infantry, who had been accident
ally separated from his command, and
whose name the colonel could not re-
call, asked permission of an officer of
the Tenth to fight in his company, say
ing that he wanted to do his duty and
could not find his own regiment. Per-
mission was granted him, and all day
the soldier did his part toward winning
the battle, with as much skill and Vigor
as though he belonged to the Tenth.
When the night came, the private ac-
costed Colonel Kellogg and asked for
certificate showing that he had per-
formed soldiers duty all through the
battle. For" said he, my captain
might think 1 had been skulking all
day unless l can show that l was lost,
and that l fought with your regiment"
Colonel Kellogg questioned the man
sharply, and sent his adjutant TO the
captain under whom the man said he
had fought to see if his story was true,
and that the soldier had performed val
orous service all day in his strange po-
sition. Quickly writing the proper GER
tificate, the colonel dismissed the man,
who started at once to hunt up his own
regiment. Late in the evening, as
Colonel Kellogg was walking the lines
of his regiment to cheer up his men
and see that all was well with them,
he made a ghastly discovery, STUN
bling over the dead body of a soldier
who had fallen. pierced by a Spanish
bullet. A hasty examination in the
moonlight showed that the dead hero
soldier of the Ninth, who had fought
all day with the Tenth. In his pocket
was the certificate so recently given
him by Colonel Kellogg. He had gone
but few steps on his journey to his
own regiment when he was struck
down by stray Spanish bullet.
Thus is illustrated in the strongest
light, as the colonel remarked, the self
reliant and Independent character of
the American soldier If separated
from his command he is not lost and
helpless, sitting down to await an or
der from some officer but, on the con-
trary, he hunts up another place TO
fight, and gives a good account of
himself wherever he may be.

THE NEW ALLIANCE.

The latest word from Europe con-
corning the oriental situation relates
10 an alliance between Great Britain
and Germany Il has been formed, ac-
cording TO reports. for their mutual
benefit, and to prevent the further en-
croachment of Russia in Asia.
AS a result of the treaty Germany
viii be given "a free hand" in Asia
Minor. and England viii obtain an ally
in the event of the ACKNOWLEDGMENT Of
China. Another consideration is the
support Germany will be able TO give
Great Britain in Egypt
1t is a well known fact that the
young kaiser has coveted Syria for
some time, wanting it as an outlet for
the surplus population of his empire
His trip TO the Holy Land, which has
occasioned so much speculation during
the past few months, was planned for
the purpose, as is now admitted, of per-
sonally inspecting the country and
picking a place TO strike.
This new alliance will operate as
two-fold menace to the car, whose
designs on the celestial empire have
not been more marked than the grad
ual Tightening of his grasp on Asiatic
Turkey. II certainly relieves Great
Britain Of a considerable strain. since
the attitude Of Russia in the Chinese
complication has been peculiarly Of

These are questions for the people of

problems for the national congress to
solve.
If we must have more territory for
our population let us not forget the
deserts irrigation has transformed
into smiling valleys. and the deserts
yet to be reclaimed. There is no better
soil on earth; no finer climate; no more
promising homes. Water is needed,
and it is available. At less expense
than 1t would take to civilize foreign
islands these lands could be reclaimed
If homes are needed for the people it
were better to gain them by irrigation
than by conquest.
