There is a righteous outcry against
the distribution Of "sapho" through the
malls Of the United States. p.rticu-
larry as second class matter. In that
class the government actually donates
about cents pound for Its distribu-
ton, receiving cent pound In post
age and paying cents for the hauling
and distributing OF course the out
rage should be stopped But what about
other literature, the chief features OF
which are murder, thleving. deception,
and other forms Of rascalliy2 Are the
morals Of the nation in danger any
more from the literature that depicts
one side Of human depravity than that
which paints the other sides? That Is
the practical question which should
be suggested by the "Sapho" agita-
tion. and 1t should be carried into other
fields than that occupied by the stage.

BISHOP S. A. wooLLEY.


The funeral ceremonies over the re-
mains OF Bishop Samuel A. Woolley VIII
be held on Tuesday at II a. m. In the
Ninth ward meeting house. This ar
rangement II regarded as appropriate,
because OF the long association OF the
deceased with the people Of that ward.
Fer nearly thirty-six years he was
their Bishop and previous TO that he
was counselor to Bishop John
WUolley. his brother. The house win
probably be too small TO hold the con-
gregation which will assemble. but the
rooms IN the annex on the west end OF
the building will be thrown open, and
thus larger accommodations will be
provided.
One Of the last acts Of the Bishop for
The benefit OF the ward was the entire
renovation and decoration OF the whole
premises They now present an at
tractlye appearance and exhibit the or
der and completeness which have been
secured in the organization Of all the
departments OF the ward Itself This
was all effected by the Bishop and his
counselors Immediately previous 20 his
departure, so that he had the salts
faction Of placing everything in his
ward, both temporal and spiritual, In
excellent working condition. He re-
NAMED the Bishop OF the ward which
he had served so long and faithfully
until his latest breath
In consequence of his falling health
and the infirmity OF deafness from
which he suffered. change in the
Bishopric had been contemplated, and
the Bishop had been chosen 10 M the
important position Of Patriarch In the
Salt Lake Stake Of Zion, but the
change had not been effected nor was
the ordination performed as has mis-
takenly been announced But the faith
ful head OF the Ninth ward remained
its Bishop until he was called to an
other sphere behind the veil.
A brief account OF his career has al
ready appeared In the public prints,
but nothing that can be said through
that means can fully express the esteem
and respect with which he is regarded
by the authorities Of the Church and
OF the Stake, and the hosts Of friends
who knew his integrity and valued his
sterling worth. There was no falter-
ing In duty by Samuel A. Woolley
Whether as Church member, Elder In
Israel. missionary to the nations or
Bishop over his flock, he was ever
ready al the call Of his file leaders TO
perform any work that might be en-
trusted TO him, and also to attend TO
the requirements OF his ward so as TO
keep Il up to the mark In all respects.
His honesty, truthfulness, square deal
Ing. and fulhllment Of personal obllga-
tons are well known and admired by
all classes of the community wherever
he was known,
The loss TO his family and the ward
IS great, but they have the consolation
Of knowing that he has fought the good
fight, that he has kept the faith, and
that his reward is sure. The woolley
family is recognized as among the stall
warts In the Church. Their name is a
guaranty Of steadfastness and ability.
The departed Bishop was shining light
among them. and he viii long be re-
membered as prominent member OF
the community and a devoted servant
Of the Lord. May peace and comfort,
proceeding from the eternal Father, rest

in the world and after all landing their
fruit In the London markets in better
condition than Canadian fruits which
comes much less distance. This is be-
cause of the sup rior cold storage equip
ment OF the Australian ships,
AS long ago as last June the PRESS
fully outlined the giant cold storage
scheme. 1t may be that Sir Charles Tup-
per has been reading the PRESS and has
obtained some of his ideas of cold stor-
age from the articles and Interviews
which have been published in this paper
from time to time. AT any rate he has
followed the lines there laid down very
closely. He advocates government protec
tion and subsidy for the cold storage
system. stating that branch stations for
the conseryat ion of produce and fruit
should be established all over the Domin-
ion and connected with the shipping
points with cold storage trains, He shows
that eggs laid in Manitoba and chickens
killed thousands of miles from the mar
ket in hot weather may be transported
to the London consumers in the best of
condition and to the manifest advantage
of the producers.
This cold storage company which is to
locate in Portland, has the promise of
government assistance from the party
now in power in Canada and its project
is tas t assuming tangible shape. In a
few months this city will see a big cold
storage plant built on modern plans and
handling thousands of dollars worth of
poultry, fruit. vegetables and other pro-
duce grown in the far away Northwest
and intended for the British and Conti-
mental markets. Sir Charles Upper s
advocacy. OF this scheme only shows how
important it is regarded by the Canadian
people and proves that the Canadian
governments policy of encouraging
such industries Is favorably regarded by
the people of the Dom inion.
In line with this plan it would not be
impossible for similar cold storage sys-
tenn to be built up in Maine. Our own
Maine products are just as good as those
of Canada Our own farmers now living
miles from the markets could raise and
ship poultry, fruits and vegetables OF all
kinds for markets Of the Old World as
well as the farmers of Canada. A cold
storage system in Maine would be feed
