and 1872 children who are of school
age.
The lack of sufficient funds is per-
haps the greatest obstacle in our way
at present. While several of the larger
school districts continue school for
the full ten months Of the year, a
greater number must close their doors
to our children after holding school for
five or six months.
Many of the smaller districts cannot
pay sufficient salary to retain year af-
ter year, the same teachers, hence they
must engage inexperienced teachers at
! the beginning of each year.
We are at present in the midst of a
busy school year. The various build
ings of the county are filled to their
capacity and several of the settlements
have been under the necessity of rent
ing additional room for a part of the
year.
Teachers, pupils, trustees and patrons
are vieing with each other as to who
will accomplish the greatest amount of
good to themselves and to the state.
The keynote of modern education is
character, and the teachers of Weber
county are especially to be commended
for their present efforts III the moral
training of their pupils.
We believe in the necessity of intel
lectual development, but we know that
alone will not produce men and women
who will be citizens in the highest and
best sense of the word
Let us make the development of the
whole man the end to be attained and
the rusult viii be citizens who will per-
petuate the institutions of freedom and
liberty w. B. WILSON,
Supt. of Weber county schools.

TALKS BY UTAH EDUCATORS
NUMBER ~.
The Schools of Weber County.
By W. B. Wilson, Superintendent of Schools

The development of the Weber coun-
" schools has kept pace with other
lines of progress. The people have been
ever mindful of the need of educational
training, and at the earliest period of
the country's settlement, when oppor-
tunities Were limited and advantages
We're few, strove manfully to provide
means for the education of their child
rem. In 1851, long before the schools
OF Utah were made free by state leg
islation, the citizens of Ogden took
steps to secure for their children the
advantages Of free education. While
the attempt was not entirely success
ful, yet it gives an index to the spirit
OF progress entertained by the Weber
county pioneers.
The evolution of the public school
system presents an interesting prob
lem. The development began under
the unfavorable conditions incident to
every new and sparsely settled COM
munity. Today the school facilities
compare fayorably with those of many
earlier settled sections.
A brief statement of pioneer work in
the educational field will doubtless be
of interest.
Among the first districts organized
in the county, outside of the city, were

of the one day each term. allowed for
visiting other schools. This has
brought about an Improvement in
methods OF instruction. discipline, and
school work generally.
In the last ten years perhaps fifteen
or twenty new school houses have been
built, all arranged in modern style for
lighting, heating, ventilating, etc. The
grounds have been materially improved.
and fenced. Shade trees have been
planted and in a few instances flower
beds adorn the school grounds. The
houses are generally supplied with suf-
ficient apparatus and in most places
modern single desks have replaced the
old homemade double desk.
The grading of the school has by no
means been overlooked. They have
been carefully graded, as conditions
would permit. until at the present time,
they are as well graded as is consist
ent with existing conditions.
The majority of the trustees are alive
to the best interests of the schools and
may always be found ready to aid the
educational growth of the county
Weber county contains twenty-four
school districts, thirty-four public
school buildings, ffty-one departments,

Do You suffer From Pilesp

If you only knew what thousands of
people have learned you would suffer
no longer. Surgery has been the only
radical help for hemorrhoids (protrud-
ing piles), and that often fails. The dis
covery that the common buckeye is a
specific for these troubles makes it easv
to do what operations have frequently
failed to do. Tabler's Buckeye Pile
Ointment positively cures every form
of piles-blind, bleeding, itching and
protruding. The remedy that has cured
thousands will not fail in your case.

THE PRESIDENTS MESSAGE.

President Mckinley has presented to
able state paper, reviewing at some
length the various questions now up
permost in national politics and offer
Ing such recommendations as in his
wisdom best. The proposition
to amend the banking law so that ma
'tional banks may be established in the
smaller towns of the country will meet
with the favor of the great masses of
the people. 1t is also a matter for con-
graduation that the president has rec
commended legislation that will perpet-
uate the gold standard:
Briefly summarized the statements
and suggestions of the message are as
follows: The president proposes the
organization of national banks with a
capital Of $25 900, half the present
minimum capitalization; suggests cur
rency legislation that will insure the
continuance of the gold standard; an
increase OF u merchant marine; con-
gressional Investigation of trusts, sup
plemented by state investigation look
ing to the making of laws to control
combinations injurious to public vel
fare; construction of the Nicaraguan
canal; the appointment of a commits,
sion to study the commercial and in
dustrial conditions in the Chinese en-
pire; jurisdiction of federal courts in
international cases, such as the lynch
ing Of foreigners, where the ultimate
responsibility of the federal govern
nent is involved: the adjustment of
all customs tariffs between the United
States and Porto Rico; the independ-
ence of Cuba whenever her people shall
be able to govern themselves; pensions
to widows of soldiers who served nine,
ty days or more during the civil wal
and whose income, aside from the pro,
ceeds of daily labor, is not'in excess Of
$3.50 per annum; increased a]ppropria,
ton for the protection of forests; thu
,slaim that Aguinaldo was ever promis'
ed independence by any officer of the
United States in return for his assist,
ance is denied; the Philippines mus
not be abandoned; the return of thu
Philippine peace commission to furth'
er investigate the form of government
that shall be put in operation; the es
tablishment of more permanent gov
ernments for Porto Rico and Alaska.
In view of the fact that the demo,
cratic party of the nation has done ev
erything in its power to make it ap,
pear that an agreement was made witt
Aguinaldo. and that this agreement wa!
violated by the United States. it is re,
lreshing to receive from the president
he statement that no promises were
,hade by Admiral Dewey or any Other
officer Of the government.

BRIGHAM H.

Brigham II. Roberts, congressman
elect from Utah, who will probably be
disqualified on charges of polygamy
and who has reused indignant opposi-
ton over all the country, is a great
leader of the Mormon church, a presi-
dent of elders, a prominent ~eXpounder
Of theology according to the book of
Mormon, and a missionary who has
done Paulian labors for the cause in
which he believes. Editor Roberts is
not a politician. He stands for all that
is orthodox in Mormonism. He was
drawn into politics because his church
was drawn into the political mael-
strom. In 1895 Mr.. Roberts became a
candidate for congress, much against
the desire OF the most powerful priests
of his faith. This rebellion he repented
and was afterward forgiven and taken
back into the church. He has now
with him the most conservative and
most influential men in Salt Lake City.
He believes in polygamy and has writ
ten many words in praise OF the old
system Of social life. He will
stand or fall with his convictions. Mr..
Roberts has Travelled far and wide in
the interest Of the Latter Day Saints,

miner of this county, is a brother OF
James A. Bailey, the noted circus man.
Robert works under ground nine
months in the year, draws a meager

lures from his Croesus brother. There
was a time in the lives of the brothers
when their positions might have been
reversed. When they were young men
their uncle. who was in the show bust

chance to learn the trade. James took

Curious Custom of the Orientals That
IL Observed Twice a Year.

Curious Custom of the Orientals That
IL Observed Twice a Year.
Twice a year, in the first week OF
April and October, the Chinese feed
their dead. They think that once their
friends and relatives leave this mortal
coil they ought to stay away from this
world, and to prevent their return
they faithfully transmit to them all
the necessaries of life. 1t has been
discovered by oriental wisdom that the
way to transmit servants, songs,
plays. books n money is to manu-
facture them in paper and burn them.
But actual eatables must be carried
to the grave. The Chinese are not
stingy, and wagon loads Of roasted
chickens, pigs, ducks, various sweet
meats and fruits are taken to the GEM
~eteries. The food is piled before each
grave, amid burning red, ca~rrot-shaped
candles and joss sticks. Then the liv-
ing PROSTATE themselves before the
dead and beg them to rise up and en-
Joy themselves. Chinese wines are
then s%prinkled literally yer the
graves, while some graves receive
boxes OF cigars and packages Of cigar
cites. But you must not suppose that
the eatables are left on the graves.
Oh, no! That would be throwing too
much temptation in the way Of hea-
then tramps. In about two hours it is
believed that the ghosts got the es-
sence of the eatables conveyed to them,
and her the devotees gather up the
offerings and carry them home again
TO feed their own material bodies.
But the cigars and cigarettes are
burned on the graves.
