In Aguinaldo the Springfield Repub-

The Republican is to congratulated
upon its discovery. He does resemble
some of the true Americans whom the

Many Dominicans think the United
States would establish peace and tran

They would have to comport them
selves better than the Georgia lynchers

would find themselves under military

here. The post repudiates the resolu-
ton, which was the work of three

Republican members of congress who
have known Roger Q. kAiills Of Texas
will congratulate hing most heartily
upon the good fortune which has come
to him late in life. The emoluments of
politics have not been large, and the
Texas statesman would probably have
died a comparatively poor man but for
the discovery of oil on his farm. It is
reported that he has sold part of the
farm for $4,000 to the STANDARD oil
Company. Mills is now one of that
class of bloated bondholders which he
has spent most of his political life in
reviling. His enthusiasm for free sill

The point on which the damage suits
resulting from the Stratford trolley ac-
cident will hinge, is a peculiar one.
Only nominal damages can be collected
in case of death, unless suffering IS
proved, and the price of human life
in Connecticut when death is instan-
taneous is rated at $780, Whether the
company pays 500 each for % Of the 30
people who were killed, or whether ii
pays mere, depends on whether a Con-
nectieut judge will rule that falling
through 81 feet Of space from a bridge
to the ground below, constitutes mental
and physical suffering. Most people
have very strong opinions of their own
upon this point, and the judicial opin-
ion will be awaited with considerable
interest.

UTAH & PACIFIC TIME TABLE.

A letter was received from Chief
Engineer Joseph A. West of the
Utah & Prcifc yesterday, stating
that train service on the road had
been successfully inaugerated. The
train leaves Milford at 7:30 p. m.
on the arrival of the Oregon Short
Line train from Salt Lake and ar
rives at Sulphur at 900 p. m. Re-
turning, il leaves Sulphur at 500 a.
m. connecting at Milford at $50 a.
m. with the train for Salt Lake.
Mail, express, passengers and freight
are carried.
There is question as to the sup
ply OF water at the present Sulphur
station, and it is possible the station
of this name will be established five
miles further to the southwest, where
better supply can be secured. This
would make the terminus thirty six
miles from Milford.
Tracklaying has been resumed be-
yond the present terminus and th'
work will be kept going as rapidly
as possible. .-Tri bune.

Salt Lake City, and in addition to
the glimpse it affords of the Temple

CAPT. De a MACS MOVEMENTS.

Having made personal inspection
of his big mine and mill at Mercur ,
and conferred with Superintendent |
Oman of his big plant and proper
ties in Nevada, Capt. De La Mar left |
for New York yesterday morning,
where he will sail for France, leaving
MIR. Victor Nj. Clement at the.hea
of his affairs on this side of the wa
ter The Captains intention is to
part with Paris IS soon as he is able
to close out his affairs in that city,
and with his daughter will establish
his permanent home in New York
city. While he has some interests
abroad they are not, says the Cap
tain, to be compared with those
requiring his attention in this coun-
try, and with New York as his home
his visits to Utah and Nevada will be
with greater frequency than hitherto.
With the result of his undertakings
in this State, Capt. De La Mar ex-
pressed himself as highly pleased,
and with operations at Mercur screw
ed to the top thread there is no doubt
of its becoming the most profitable
of any of his many undertakings in
the hills. The Captain feels that but
little is known of the real magnitude
of the Mercur's gold deposits and
that future researches must be- at
tended by surprises even greater
than those already recorded.-Trib'

AS to the Grip.

1t is possible that the grip bacillus
will invade this town as winter
tourist. 1t has travelled across the
continent with remarkable speed un-
til now it is straddling the Rocky
Mountain range somewhere between
Denver and Salt Lake. Perchance
few advance agents have already
arrived, but it is best not to be too
sure about that. The grip bacillus
is a good deal like eoyote-it will
chase anything that is afraid Of it
and will run away from it. There
was never yet an epidemic of disease
that did not thrive on fear and panic.
A persons constitution is apt to
weaken when his nerves grow shaky
and his courage deserts him. Such
things are always exaggerated. Chi
cago, for instance, is supposed to be
helpless and suffering in the grip
bacillus, yet the Chronicle points out
that up to a week ago there had only
been eight deaths from that cause.
about one to each 250, 1000 of the
population. Don't get alarmed.
Wherever it has appeared this winter
the rayages of the disease have been
comparatively light, and the condi-
tions in Los Angeles as compared
with those in cities less fortunately
situated are very unfavorable for the
microscopic foe of the human race.
1t must be admitted that the mys-
terious bug has been very successful
in eluding the searching investiga'
tons of the medical scientists. Moth
ing has been discovered that effectu
ally discourages the grip bacillus ant
causes it to turn up its toes in shor
order. If the unhappy victim throw
up his hands when he feels tn
clutches in his system, goes home ant
to bed, gives the enemy plenty o
hot lemonade to drink-sometime
they prefer little whisky-ant
feeds it with nice sugar-coated pills
he is apt to get off comparativel
easy Resistance after the fact ger
orally tends to make matters worse
The grip insect is peculiar in tn
respect.
A safe general rule to follow is
go about your BUSINESS as if the
