THE MURRAY CITY NEWS has
taken on new form, and is no
longer published by the Nelson
vile Buckeye. The work on this
paper is now done by the Journal
Gazette in Logan. We congratu-
late Editor Chatfield on the new
dress Of his paper and wish him
well. He has declared the paper
unequivocally republican and is
now the rival of the Journal-Ga-
zette in this county. Our county
officers will recognize him as a re-
publican organ published in our
county seat, and divide the "op-
posite politics" patronage with
him. There is wide field for a
hustling republican paper here, and
Mr.. Chatfield can make it 60.

AUsTRIA's NEW MONEY.
New Coins, New Denominations, But
Still the Silver Standard.


A new currency has been introduced
into Austria Hungary. The Austrian
form has disappeared, and with it al.
SO the kreuzer. of which there were
100 in a fiorin. The new unit is called
florin. One crown contains 100 hel.
Ter. and the latter. therefore. equals
half kreuzer.
1t must be remarked, however, that
the introduction of the new currency
does not yet mean the establishing of
the intended gold standard. but is on
ly preparatory step toward it. The
transition to the gold standard is not
expected to be affected before two or
three years have passed. So far, there.
fore, crown means nominally silver
money.
After the introduction of the gold
standard one crown will equal If. &C.,
the slight difference having been
made to prevent the leakage Of gold
from the country.
The new currency. whatever Its 9th.
or merits, does not seem to tend to
simplicity. AS crown piece OF
''krone." having the value of half
form. Is to take the place of the for.
in, and the new half-fiorin piece Is
to consist of 100 heller instead of So
kreuzer. the gain is not very apparent.
.It Is pretty much as IL we were to
abolish the shilling, with its 12d., as a
unit, and substitute sixpence with
twelve halfpence. The traveller and
tourist in Austria Hungary will have
to count in heller and "krOner" hence
forth instead Of "kreuzer'' and guild
en-" having twice the value. The new
krone will not be equivalent either I'd
the French franc on the one hand Of
to the German mark ON the other. So
that there Is no tendency to simplicity
or to equalization Of values. The intro
ductiOn of the new currency Is intend
ed to facilitate the establishment of q
gold standard in Austria Hungary,
which. we are informed. will take
place In two or three years. But we
have heard of the adoption of the gold
standard in the dual empire for sOma
ten years past, and 1t is not in sight
yet.-London Chronicle.

God to deliver us from the task.
But II you will take them, they must
share our destiny with u.s."
The bill providing for the ship
subsidy job has been favorably re-
ported to the Senate. The report
which was made on the bill will be
widely circulated by the republicans
for the purpose of trying to create a
public sentiment for the 500, 900, 900
job, but it Ia very doubtful whether
they will try to push the bill through
until after the Presidential election,
as word has been passed around
among the republicans in Congress
to keep the total OF appropriations
made at this session of Congress
down as much as possible. with the
understanding that the money can
safely be made to fly at the next
session, which will not be held un-
til after the Presidential election.
OF course, the disagreeable wealth
er in Washington had nothing to do
with the departure for Cuba, via
Florida, Of Secretary Root. He 1.
going to make an "cfficial inspec-
tion,' of Cuban ports, using gov
ernment after he reaches Tampa.
What part his wife, son and daugh-
ter, who accompanied him, are to
take in the "official inspection" is a
question which he may be able to
answer. To some persons this trip
looks Ikea winter junket for his
family at public expense.

The State-Journal entertained


The State-Journal entertained
some dirty, sloppy stuff against John
#. White in the issue of this morn
ing. Mr.. White is citizen of Lo-
gan and gentleman, and every citi-
Gen of Logan should resent such in
famous stuff as the State Journal
published. We are opposed to John
White politically, but we predict
that the contents of that article will
rise up to damn its author. Politi-
cal contests are all right, bat mali
cious personalities are too base for
public consideration. The Xray
search will reveal very few angels
on earth, and when such is applied
many families may suffer.

That the coming King is at door
Is a truth verified by the rapid full
flllment In our day Of all the prop.
hecies verging upon that event, In
both the old end new testaments.
John describes the condition of
the world at the time OF the end in
these words: "And the nations
were angry and thy wrath is come,
and the time of the dead that they
should be Judged" Rev. IL: 1s.
The thoughtful mind that be-
holds the "nations" today in their
efforts to surpass each other In
their unparalleled preparations for
war; their imD1 ense armies; their
wonderful and destructive war
vessels; and their dreadful, mur-
derous weapons of destruction and
death, must conclude that the
"nations" are "angrv, and thy
wrath is come, and the time OF the
dead, that they should be judged"
Rev. IL: 18.
Joel, in startling words proclaim
ing that the day of the Lord is
near, voices the actions of the ma
tions today: "Proclaim ye this
among the Gentiles; Prepare war,
wake up the mighty men, let all
the men of war draw near; let
them come up: Beat your plow-
shares into swords, and your prun-
ing hooks into spears: let the weak
say, am strong. Put ye in the
sickle, for the harvest is ripe:
come, get you down; for the press
is full, the fats overflow; for their
wickedness ie great" Joel 8: 8, 10
is. ta
The world is beholding the full
fllment of this wonderful prop
hecy today; and the command,
"Put ye In the sickle, for the har-
vest is ripe" proves that the end of
the world is imminent; for the
Saviour tells US that, "The harvest
is the end of the world; and the
reapers are the angels" Matt 13:
80.
The prophet Nahum beholds the
mighty warriors OF our time and
.exclaims: "The shield Of his mighty
men is made red, the valiant men
are in scarlet" And then describ-
es the chariots in use to day: "The
chariots shall be with flaming
torches in the day of his prepar-
alton, and the fir trees shall be
terribly shaken. The chariUts
shall rage in the streets, they shall
justle one against another in the
broad ways: they shall seem like
torches, they shall run like the
lightnings." Nahum. 2: 8. 4.
The prophet is here describing
the modern railroad cars which
have been in use 10 years. They
are now to be used all over the civ
ilized world. This prophecy was
written over 1900 years ago, and
perhaps no one now living can give
better description of a modern
train of cars than that given by the
prophet. These chariots are to be
Tin the day of his preparation"
they are here, and are sign of the
near approach of the great day OF
the Lord. w. s. BOONE,

THE DAmoseL OF ONE DIMENSION:


Let others celebrate the charms
OF ladies fair, with figures ample,
OF whom the Aedicean is
The Venus serving for example;
] string nv Tyre in praise Of one
Who makes no vulgar, vain pretension
To fascination through the flesh,
The damosel Of one dimension
The plump. though pretty, now appear
But coarse beside her girlish SHINES,
Whose rare attenuation shows
No trace of ghastliness or grimneS;
Although tits true she'd ne'er suggest
The type you might call tutti frutti,
Her slender form today, meseems,
Describes the lauded line Of beauty.
I, looking on her lovely length,
Abandon with amazing qu:ckness

Revolving seem both breadth and thickness;
How Turks delight to feast their eyes
On fat doth pass my comprehension;
For me the fzirest woman IL

Her one dimension is enough;

it happened that the next day was the
day on which the servant girl had her
day OF, and the lady of the house made
up her mind that she would surprise
her friend by getting up nice lunch
prepared by herself. for she had the
reputation when they were young Ia
dies of not being able to cook, while
her friend had the reputation OF being
an excellent cook.
The day her friend was expected the
lady vent to market and laid in a sup
ply Of all the good things which go to
make up a fine lunch. She went home
and lighted the FIRE and prepared for
the cooking. Just then she discovered
that she had forgotten TO get some
fruit and told her young daughter to
tell her friend when the latter came
that she would be back In few mo-
ments. She went to the store and.
meeting some of her friends. staid quite
awhile. forgetting how time was flying.
In the meantime the friend arrived.
and. being told that her hostess would
soon be home. she went into the kiteh-
en-. and. seeing the good things there.
she went to work and cooked and pre-
pared the lunch. When the lady of the
