PUBLIC SPIRIT is NEEDED.

There is some talk of the Short Line
offices being moved from this city to
Omaha If the Short Line ceases to
exist as a separate system this will
doubtless occur. But there are reasons
why Salt Lake City should remain
headquarters and only one of any con-
sequence in favor of removal Consol-
idation with either interests and con-
troll of all under one manage
ment would probably decrease
expenses to some extent. Yet
there is a chance for the road to lose
more in business by changing its head
quarters than it will save by a reduc-
ton in the administrative force.
The state of Utah has dealt gener-
ously with the Short Line company.
The legislature granted the road many
and valuable concessions. Business
men have looked upon it as home in
stitution and patronized it according
". AS a result the business of the road
has grown wonderful since the reor-
ganization. 1t is in better shape finan-
cially than it ever was or ever Will be
IL IL removes IFOIl Tie SldIe-
Salt Lake City is a geographical CEN
ter of trade 1t is a live distributing
point of a vast area of rapidly devel-
oping country. 1t is destined to be-
come a great railroad center. 1t is one
of the most promising in the west al
ready. The railroads that are identified
with it most closely will realize most
from the business done in its vicinity
1t is to the interest of the city as well
that the Short Line headquarters
should remain here, and it behooves the
citizens, the business men in particu-
lar, to give this matter their atten
ton. to attempt, through concerted ac-
ton. to prevail upon the company to
abandon whatever notion it may have
had TO take the offices away And
while The Herald hopes that the con-
templated change has never been final
~ decided upon, it has, nevertheless,
been SO seriously considered that
prompt action on the part of citizens
and business men is necessary 20 pre-
vent the matter from reaching the stage
of actual determination.

SELFISH PLEASURE IN WAR.

The New York Mail and Express
notes with regret that there are men
calling themselves Americans who well
come a South African war on the sin
gle ground that it will have a natu-
raj tendency to aid the settlement of
the Alaska boundary question"
Such men are contemplate, it says.
Yet there are others, we observe, who
would involve their country in war
from less round about motives of Gu
pidityi who believe in buying options
on unfinished wars and forcible an
nexation of territory not at all neces-
sary or contiguous to other territory
their country possesses, as is the case
with Great Britain in South Africa.
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1899-10-24

There is trouble going to waste in
South Africa The British are hunting
the Beers and the followers of Kruger
are learning more about Bull fighting
than they even thought they knew The
Beers shoot well and the British are
determined that Majuba Hill shall be
forgotten. The contending forces are
inspired by more than the ordinary
sense of duty-one side is fighting for
national existence: the other is fighting
to redeem a reputation disfgured in
the same locality some years ago.

was such a scathing arraignment of
Republican misrule that either gentl:-

Minneapolis, Oct 12-From a plat
form in front of the Minneapolis expo

afternoon voiced the nations welcome
to the Thirteenth Minnesota volunteers
just returned from the Philippines and
delivered an address to thousands of
cheering people The president and his
party were driven to the exposition
building directly after having reviewed
the long parade from the reviewing
stand on Nicol1et avenue. About the
platform in front of the building where
General Harrison was nominated for
president of the United States by a
convention presided over by William
Mckinley, were massed the returned
volunteers. Behind them was a crowd
whose numbers could scarcely be esti-
mated.
The cheering broke loose as soon as
President Mckinley, Governor Lind and
General Summers OF the Second Ore
gon volunteers appeared on the plat
form. DIR. Cyrus Northrup, president
of the University of Minnesota, pre-
sided over the exercises and the in
vocation was pronounced by Bishop
Isaac w. Joyce of the Methodist Epis-
copal church.
Mayor Gray spoke the words OF greet
ing to the soldiers and distinguished
guests on behalf of the city and Cover
nor Lind on behalf of the state. The
governor paid a strong tribute to the
returned volunteers. President McKin-
ley was greeted with. cheers that CON-
ftinued for several minutes and through
out the delivery of his address the ap-
plause was frequent. He said:

DISCUSS INDIAN AFFAIRS.
Proposition That Service Shall BE
Taken Out of Politics.


Mohonk Lake, N. Y, Oct 12.-The Mo-
the report of the committee appointed last
year to recommend a scheme adapted 70
carry into effect the views expressed IN
the platform of last years conference.
The report disavows any purpose of
personal attack upon the present admin
istration of Indian affairs. It declares
that the Indian service should be taken
out of poltics, that the commissi oner
should not be regarded as a political
office: expresses confidence in the present
secretary of the interior and the commits
sioner of Indian affairs; advises that the
present system should be regarded as
temporary, to be simplifie6 so far as pos
sible and that such a policy should be
adopted as win tend toward its gradual
abandonment.
Several methods which have been sug-
gested with this end in view are discussed
without APPROVAL. Finally it was recon-
mended that the agencies should be dis
continued as fast as it becomes practi-
cable in each case.
Several agencies were mentioned which,
in the opinion of the committee, might
soon he abolished. The supply of rations
and payment of annuities should also be
discontinued as soon as possible. The
agents should be included in the classified
service.
The report was discussed at length by
the conference and with most amend
ments unanimously adopted. Addresses
from DIR. Fissel of the Hampton institute,
and DR.. Slocum, president of the Colo
RADIO college, received close attention.
