FEDERAL SITE TALK
Council Votes Down Resolution On
Subject.
DIEHL MEASURE KILLED
WANTED OFFICIAL ENDORSE.
MENT OF CITY PROPERTY.
Members Oppose Proposition On
Ground That It Would Be Unfair
to Other Citizens Who Are Urging
the Treasury Department to Take
Their Real Estate.

The federal building site caused some
oratory in last nights meeting of the
council. 1t came up over a resolution
introduced by Diehl that instructed the
recorder to send a telegram to Assist
ant Secretary of the Treasury Taylor.
recommending, on behalf of the coun-
Gil, the site offered by Lawrence
Young, George A. Lowe and others.
This is the city hall corner.
As soon as Diehl had introduced his
resolution and Fernstrom had seconded
motion to adopt it, the wind jamming
began. Callister was the first speaker.
He opposed the resolution with con-
siderable vigor. The councilman said
that some OF the city's most prominent
men had gone to Washington to urge
various sites, and he didn't think 1t
would be fair to them or to other prop
erty-owners for the council to take any
official action.
Romney Endorses Callister.
Bishop Romney said the spirit of the
resolution was wrong and improper. He
endorsed the utterances of Callister.
In support of the resolution, Diehl
urged that if sale of the city's lot is
effected, it would benefit every class
of citizens. AS a councilmen he felt
resolution.
Robertson, the very man who, more
than all others, was responsible for the
offering of the citys lot, was one of
the most outspoken against the reso-
luton. Il do not believe this body
should lend itself to anything of this
kind" he declared TT is unfair to
some of the people we represent. There
are other people who have sites, and
they have just as much right to come
down here and ask us to send tele-
gram for them as Mr.. Lowe has"
Diehl Talks For the Measure.
Diehl urged that it would be a great
blessing If the city could get rid of its
unsigbtly corner. He considered it the
best site for the building. anyway, and
the fact that he represented the Fifth
precinct, and that the site is located
there, didn't cut any ice with him.
Allen opposed the resolution on the
same ground taken by other members
of the opposition, and so did Buckle.
When the question came to a vote,
Diehls was the only affirmative out of
fourteen present and voting. Margetts
was absent when the ballot was taken.
Just before the resolution was intro
duced, George A. Lowe circulated a pc
tition among the councilmen, which
was in the form of a telegram to the
treasury department, asking that the
city site be chosen. All of the council
men signed it except Robertson, Allen,
Callister and Buckle.
Property-owners interested in an east
side site have been keeping tab recently
on the amount of mail delivered to the
east and west sides of the city. 1t is
claimed that the discovery has been
made that more than twice as much
mail goes east of Main street as goes
west. This argument is being used in
Washington, and those who are back
ing the east side believe it will have
much weight with the treasury depart
ment before a final decision is reached

the game will come off at Calder
park. The latter nine has not yet made
its debut in the baseball world and the
Y. NJ. c. A. has not played since its
reorganization, so the game should be
a very interesting one.
The game to be played on Saturday
between the Short Line and Butte
teams is causing a greater furry among
the ball people than any contest yet
played. 1t has been decided that the
Butte team viii play again with the
Short Lines on Decoration day, when
the Lagoon will be opened for the sea-
son with this attraction. Saturday will
certainly see the largest crowd that
has yet attended any game on a week
day, and it goes without saying that
the Lagoon game will meet with a
very heavy attendance. On Sunday the
Butte players will go to Ogden.
Manager Reed of the Salt Lakes is
confident that his team can stack up
three runs to one in a game with the
high school nine, and says he has back
ing to the amount of $500 to show that
he means business.
Manager Midgley of the L. D. S. bus
mess college is arranging for a field
DAY to be given under the auspices OF
the l.. d. S. nine. The date has not
been definitely decided upon, but it is
likely that the event will take place
about two weeks hence. 1t is said the
intention to have a day of general all
around field sports, baseball, of course,
to be the leading feature. The high
school or university team will be in
vited to participate, and the affair will
take place at the Lagoon.
Manager Horn of the Ogdens is bank
ing on an extended ball playing tour to
be made of the Montana ball centers,
including Butte, Anaconda, Helena and
Great Falls. The trip will be taken
about the middle of June.
The Salt Lakes and Short Lines have
no dates ahead after Decoration day.
They are waiting for Park City to or
ganiZe in order that a complete sched-
ule may be made out.

z. w. Goodlng has received a large
picture of Andersonville prison and its
environments as it was in 1854 when
33, 900 men we're imprisoned there, Mr..
Gooding being one OF the unfortunate
soldiers sent there after being taken q
prisoner by the rebels. The enclosure
covered sixteen acres of land, through
which a small creek Of sluggish water
passed. 1t shows the men huddled to-
gether under old blankets and pieces
of tents stretched over poles, that being
the only protection they had from the
scorching sun or bad weather and many
Of them didn't have even this conven-
fence. The dead line is shown over
which If any dared venture was sure
death from the bullets OF guard on
the stockade. Mr.. Gooding was in this
prison and another to which he was
transferred for about year. When he
was taken in his weight was ITO pounds,
at his release he was reduced In flesh
TO SO pounds and his clothes consisted
of an old shirt and pair OF pants. The
picture which is an interesting but sad
one may be seen in Cahill q Hudson's.

may not have made the statement. II
she did IL Is clear that IL was done joe
ularly and with no intention OF making
such serious charge against Mr.. Bur
hans. If he had been dishonest enough
to favor her in that way she could not
have been foolish and ungrateful
enough to tell of it. The idea that he
did such a thing and she told OF 1t In
the manner stated is too absurd, not
only for belief, but for moments con-
sideration. If she did not make the
statement at all then Mr.. Chapman and
his friends have placed themselves 10
very serious position.
However that may be, Mr.. Burhans
authorizes the Sentinel to say that he
challenges any person to produce an
affidavit or statement signed by any
reputable citizen, that he at any time
or place delivered to any applicant or
person whomsoever, any question or
Information in advance OF the time
when the same was properly given out
by the board of examiners on the day
OF examination when the questions
were given TO all the applicants for
certificates
In the second place Mr.. Chapman, In
his affidavit, seems to raise serious
question as to his own integrity, when
he says:
1.-THE said Edna Lockwood asked for
information concerning the questions
to enable her to properly answer them,
when she came to write them out and
then and there received assistance from
those present and from text books
which were consulted"
Mr.. Chapman certainly knew when
he was assisting Miss Lockwood that
he was taking advantage OF the exam
iner and that he was, as the lawyers
say, ''particeps criminis" to the whole
transaction. II he was an honest man
why did he not report the matter to
the other members of the board. Not
doing so but aiding the fraud, the
charge does not come with very gesss

something about people who live In
9 lass houses not throwing stones.
A most peculiar fact is that with the
aid OF Mr.. Chapman and others, and
the questions in advance, yet Miss
Lockwood failed to get the certificate
she was writing for. She could not
have stood in so we'll with Levi" as
she thought. This fact alone brands the
whole story with suspicion. The Sen
final has In its possession the atfidavits
OF Mr.. Burhans and Miss Lockwood,
denying the charge in toto. What
more do loyal republicans want.
Mr.. Burhans has always been re-
publican since his first vote. He is a
man of integrity and educational abil-
ity, and has made his way unaided in
the world He was the choice of the
republican convention, and the course
by the democratic press in the
interests Of John M. Chapman should
not and will not lead one thoughtful re-
publican astray. The tactics OF the
opposition are shelfworn and have
never as yet and will not now avail to
defeat an honest, upright and progress
sive young man to the Office to which
he aspires.

We notice In the last two issues OF
the BANNER articles on "Reform in
funerals" 1t appears to us that there
are more or less crocodile tears, as it
were, being shed on the subject than
necessary.
Mrs. Ellis makes the statement: ~
am firmly convinced that funerals or
any ceremony whatever over the de-
ceased clay which held lives that we're
entwined with ours is barbaric." She
carries the idea that they should be
buried without notice or any cere-
mony whatever, without tear from
neighbors or friends, or chance to
look once more at the face Of the one
we have known and respected all our
peat her own words and say it would
be "barbaric.p
Education has a great deal to do
with our belief In such matters. The
Catholic by their creed make rather
the most display in burying their dead.
With lighted candles and altar boy
with burning incense, the priest with
his robes OF Office and bell boy, and so
they perform the Latin mass for the
rest OF the soul of the dead. You may
ask "Why do they do it?" They are
educated to believe it is the right way
it should be performed, that is the
reason.
Why does the writer of the article
on Ibis subject in the BANNER Of March
l6, make the statement that the
"church OF my adoption is more sacred
than my own home,n and a pastor ia
Prince Albert coat is ito me as a be-
loved father in Israel" II is educa-
tion. Why do the Red men bury their
dead with their faces toward the rising
sun, and their arms and ''scalps' they
have taken from their enemy with
them? They are educated to believe
1t is the right way to perform the

buried, whether from their late homes
or from the church of ''our adopton?'
Can you point out any place in that
book where or when we are to meet in
a church to pay a last tribute of re-
spect to neighbor, friend or relative?
We think not. This is free country.
If any one sees fit TO hold a public

animation. That there we're several
persons, to-wit: Will 7. Bogardus,
