TRIBUTE FROM AN EXPERT.

Friends of The Herald will pardon US
for expressing unusual satisfaction
with the announcement of the Chicago
Tines-Herald in the advertising coll
umns of this issue. The management
of the great Chicago daily wished to
reach the people of this city and state
in the most effective way possible.
After looking over the field they de-
cided The Herald was the best possible
medium for their purpose, and at once
contracted for a considerable amount
of space in this paper on a cash basis
at full rates. Naturally, the favorable
judgment Of another newspaper, as in
this case, is taken as tribute to The
Herald. AS a matter of courtesy, The
Herald takes pleasure in saying that
the Times-Herald can be depended
upon to fulfill its every promise and
to make no representations that are not
true. The Century Dictionary and
Cyclopedia, which is the subject of the
announcement is the most perfect pub
LEGATION of the kind ever issued 1t has

Paper That Brought Inspiration.

OF the many mysterious things that
have occurred to Sardou, the following
is, perhaps, the most inexplicable:
Sitting at his desk one night, trying to
find a denouement to a scene he was
engaged in writing. inspiration abso-
lutely refused to come. Suddenly ii
seemed to him he heard voice whis-
pering in his ear: I'm such a street
small shop in the courtyard, the owner
of which has a stock of a peculiar de-
scription of paper: buy it from him"
Sardou had never heard of the exist
ence even of such street, and, more
over. it was nearly midnight The i'm
pulse to obey the voice became so
strong, however, that he was compelled
to yield to it. He found the street with
out much difficulty, but to discover the
house was another matter. 1t was only
by recalling the exact directions given
him by the voice that he was at last
successful. Sure enough, in the court
yard. invisible from the street, there
was a sort of small stationer's shop.
The owner of the shop naturally was
asleep. Sardou reused him from his
slumbers and told him what he had
come for. The man stared at his strange
midnight customer. He admitted that
he possessed stock Of paper such as
Sardou described and which he had
never been able to sell.
Sardou purchased the lot, took il
home with him, and, before he went to
bed that night. penned with the great
est ease several scenes which turned
out among the most successful he had
ever written.

violated by the taking. printing or cir
culating of photographs in the interest
of public safety.
Among the duties of every police de-
partment are those of vigilance and
reasonable activity to preserve the pub
lie peace, prevent crime. detect and ar
rest offenders, and protect the rights of
persons and property.
'One of the ways to prevent crime

and property" said Justice Truax, lis
to know who are habitual criminals.
and the easiest way that such persons
can be recognized is by their photo
graphs"
While the proper remedy is not
mandamus in such cases, the justice
went into the merits of the case, no
doubt to prevent further controversy.
A mandamus is issued to compel pub
lie officer to perform a duty imposed
upon him by law. 1t was to enjoin the
police board that the suit in question
was obviously brought. But the rem
edy, if Joyce is injured by the police
department through the publication
and distribution of his photograph, is
an action for damages, alleging libel.
The public is afforded ample protection
in this without asking for freak legis-
lation or applying to the courts for in
functions that are sure to be refused.

AN ANNOUNCEMENT.

In line with progressive, modern
newspaper policy, The Herald
under its present management, has de-
voted special attention and space to
educational subjects for several
months. Its series of articles by Utah
educators has been a notable part of
the general plan to awaken discussion
of the questions treated. This has been
done because the intelligent, reading,
thinking public is the most desirable
constituency a newspaper can have;
and the interest in such matters is no
where greater than it is in Utah and
the inter-mountain region.
Stimulated by the substantial ap-
proval of its efforts in this direction,
The Herald has secured a series of il
Illustrated contributions from eminent
writers and educators, which Will APP
pear from June 10 into October, under
the caption of The Herald's Home
Study Circle" Among the contributors
are some of the best-known men and
women of this country. Every one of
the authors represented is a recognized
authority on the subject discussed by
MIN, ana the matter Is NrlIlell III SuSu
an attractive way that the series will
be read with pleasure by every lover
of good literature. The papers will
cover five courses:
Vacation Studies for Young Natural
isis.
Historic Cities of Europe.
Popular Lectures in Physical Sci
ence.
Three Centuries Of French Litera-
ture.
Royal Women of European History
Advance sheets of the matter justify
the declaration that no recent publica-
tions on these topics are so well adapt
ed for popular reading and study as
these papers-a declaration that will be
accepted without question after one
has looked over the full-page announce
ment of the authors on another page
of this issue.
The Herald assumes the entire ex-
pense of the publication, with the
knowledge in advance that it will be
fully repaid by the appreciation of its
old readers and the addition of many
new ones.

What action will be taken by the
Democracy regarding it's platform it is
too early to discuss, but 1 am sure of
one thing, and that is that silver will
not be relegated out of sight 1t can
not be-" So said William ]. Bryan
after the conference of the Democratic
national committee at st. Louis.
The New York Press quotes the fore
going and offers the following COM
ment:
Right, 1t cannot be, because the states
which will determine the Democratic can
didate for president and his platform, are
red-hot for Colonel Bryan. And Colonel
Bryan is the same free silver man now he
was in 1896.
There is another reason not given by
the Press. The Republican leaders are
pledged to undertake in the next con-
gress what they designate as currency
reform. 1t is a retirement of green
backs, a destruction of silver certifi-
Gates, a concession to the bank trust.

Wasn't Going to Fish.

\ certain honest fisherman in the To-
caiity OF Marshall whose years and
venerable appearance fully entitle him
to the cognOmen of Dad given by the
younger members of the profession, has
conscientious scruples about fishing on
Sunday. Last Sunday he began a
weeks outing at one of the neighbor-
ing lakes, relates the Athens Bee. The
day was fine and the water was smooth
and the old gentleman could not resist
an invitation from a less conscientious
angler TO take a ride" As the pair
neared good fishing waters Dad
glanced longingly at the unused rod
lying in the boats bottom. The inter-
nal struggle was a long and hard one,
and the capitulation, when it came,
was made in a manner TO provide q
salve for the pricks of conscience. He
said. as he reached for the pole: It
guess you had better put a minnow on
that hook, and I'll just hold it over the
side Of the boat and let it drag along.

MAxIMO GOMEZ, PATRIOT.

Those eastern newspapers which are

their target for some time. They call
him a mercenary, sneer at his age
and poverty, and speak sarcastically
of his paper army
1t is true that there are fewer sur
vivors of the long struggle of Cuban
patriots for liberty than we thought
to see; and it may be that the Cuban
forces never were as large as the
world was led to believe; but what
does it all signify?
1t speaks well for the courage, en-
durance and patriotism of the Cuban
army, small as it seems to have been,
ragged and poorly equipped that it
was yet able to hold out against the
treachery, modern arms and superior
resources and forces of Spain during
all the long years of the fierce struggle
for independence.
Gomez is the last of the old generals
identified with the Cuban revolution
He has his weaknesses of character
but he was born Spaniard, and most
of the uncomplimentary things that
have been said about him in American
newspapers are but echoes of Spanish
spite. He is a shrewd old fellow as
he demonstrated when he asked for
money for his men. Castilian poll
ticians call him a traitor because he
left Spain and cast his fortunes with
the oppressed of the Antilles; and.
from the calumnies OF Spanish news
papers have grown the slurs of our
own. But the real reason he is abused
by the imperialistic press of this coun-
try. is because he does not stand for
Cuban annexation. His whole life has
been devoted to the establishment Of
a Cuban republic. 1t is his chief
drawback, perhaps, that his mind has
always dwelt upon this one idea. But
