/ army were properly organized, 1t would
be an ample security for the prosperity
Of the country and a benefit TO all ma
tions.
1 believe that one of the first things
our government should do is TO endeav-
or to get commercial alliance between
our country, Germany. America and
Japan. The foundation and object OF
such an alliance would be fair field
and no favor; would be the integrity of
China as it is, and would be the open
door trade policy for all nations. With
that, and an adequate army for police
purposes, / believe this country would
go on and prosper. Certainly. if we do
not do that. we shall be driven out of
the country, or we shall have to fight,
in which case we shall fight at dis
advantage, and then not be able 20 re-
cover what we had lost.
There are several reasons why Great
Britain is DESTROYS of establishing, with
the aid and consent of other nations,
the open-door policy in China. One is
the lack of influence the British now
have among the officials and the
tradespeople of China. Another is the
growing influence of the car, and his
complete partnership with Ii Hung
Chang, whose reinstatement has
proved that the government is behind
him.
1t is plain that the dominant and
military position of Russia in the north,
and the other is the absolutely effete
condition of the British. government
with regard to the 400, 600, 900 inhabit-
ants, which they can in no way con-
troll, while at any moment, if the Eng
lish put up stores or trade centers in
the country, they may be destroyed or
burned, and the government of Great
Britain viii have no control over those
who do ii.
Russians are said to be ignoring the
customs altogether, while other nations
are held to a rigid accounting.
But with a perfect reorganization of
the Chinese army, under British Off
GERS, there would be greater vigilance
observed, no doubt, and the tariff re-
strictions of China would also be en-
forced against Russia. The admirars
scheme is a good one. il he can only
make it work.

PARTED IN TEARS.

Grand county has experienced the
excitement of Jail delivery. Sheriff
Tyler went TO the Moab bastile the
other morning to find that his solitary
prisoner had broken out the night be-
fore. It was not with the measles
either. but with the aid of a. case knife
and a stoVe-poker.
He left these implements as clues
which the officer carefully examined.
He also left letter TO the sheriff
Then he left the country.
The letter was a pathetic farewell
not only to the sheriff and his hos
pitality, but to the beautiful scenery
climate and maidens of Moab.
1t was no doubt hard to part from
an officer who held such an attach
ment for him, yet, with the assistance
of a horse taken from a neighborine
corral, he did so.
The people of Grand county should
not mourn. His loss is their gain. They
would better call a mass-meeting to
protest against the speed of Sheriff
Tyler who is now OH the trail. II
the fugitive is brought back no one
knows how many horses ne may steal
next time he leaves.

sLuE-LAw PRECEDENTs.

Senator Abel John Evans arti-smok-
ng bill, twice rejected. thrice present
ed. passed the senate yesterday by a
gathering majority.
Doubtless there viii be those who are
so DESTROYS Of a fight that they will
criticise this measure as sumptuarS,
Condemn it as a blow at a Lne-ho1-
ored habit, at an American invention.
and at 4 leading industry Of this coun-
Try.
But the chances are that the senator
is prepared for every objection that
NAV be raised TO his pet measure.
And while there are many favorable
things that may be said OF tobacco and
it's uses. the author and champion of
the bill Will doubtless contend that the
prescriptions are not applicable TO boys
under the age Of is years.
There have been such laws before.
The Puritans were very much opposed
10 the use OF tobacco in any form. They
passed blue laws against it. But
eventually it gained ground with them.
Even the deyout Quallers Of that day
smoked, bat there was an aGmonitory
law which required the Friends Ito
partake Of tobacco privately. and in
their own houses, in order not to en-
courage smoking and make the use
thereof excessive" yet tobacco was a
legal tender in several Of the colonies.
There were statutes IN the old codes
of several New England states in which
were prescribed severe penalties
against the use of tobacco in any form.
\ statute. dated 1892, forbade the use
IF tobacco by any person in any place,
public or private, under penalty of a
fine of one penny for each offense. This
law not proving effective. another was
passed two years later of much greater
severity. All tobacco users were order
ed TO discontinue the vile habit. Tav-
ern-keepers were Enable five shillings
for permitting smoking on their prem
Uses, while the fine for every offense in
the private use of the weed, even in
ones own house, was two shilIings and
six pence for each offense
So Senator Evans has a number of
precedents for his anti-toDacco bill, II
may become a law. II may also be-
come a dead-letter, just as the laws
against conspiracy. prostitution and
gambling are in this city.

MEET THE PEOPLE HALF WAY.

How can the administration ask
congress TO increase the regular army
under AIcer?
With ali the whitewash applied by
the investigation committee, the finger
prints Of scandal were not ehaced
from the record.
Ignorance. Incompetence. stupidity
malice, favoritism, negligence-these
are the words that describe Ayers
shameful conduct of the war
The people of the whole country
know it just as the people Of Boston
know it. Alger is greeted with misses
in Boston. There is nc excitement on.
There is no personal feeling against
the man. People everywhere respect
the position that he holds. But for
Alger there is lcathing and contempt.
Then, how can the president expect
congress to increase the army when he
does nothing IN the same direction?
How can he hope for favorable con-
sideration of the reorganization bill
when he refuses &c remove the motor
ious Incompetent and historical coward
whose presence now disgraces the head
of the war department?
Perhaps he relies upon the party
whip. There are men like Representa-
tive Johnson of Indiana ana Senators
Hale and Hoar. for whom the lash that
Hanna yields mas lost its terror.
If the administration. honestly and
for the highest purpose, desires the
reorganization and increase Of the
army. let the president lay the founda-
ton 9or it.
He should meet the people at least
half way.
He should remove Alger at once.

The navy department has great faith
in the effectiveness of the torpedo. As
an indication orders are being pushed
rapidly. New weapons are constantly
being turned out under navy depart
ment orders and as fast as the tor
pedoes are tested and tried they are
stored for future use. Large numbers
of the weapons are now available for
service. After exhaustive tests of the
relative merits Of the whitehead and
Howell torpedoes the United States
has restricted its orders to the White
head weapon. Congress is more in
clined to favor the navy than the army
under present arrangements.
