maRding attention The same committee
might also take into consideration the
question Of making needed repairs TO the
capitol and arranging convenient plan
for heating that building. the library, and
the executive mansion The necessity for
these changes. and especially FOR the re
roofing of the capitol. was urged III my
last message. and I think On two former
occasions by my predecessors Only those
who have made a close inspection OF the
building can form an idea Of the pressing
necessity for Immediate attention. and
earnestly ask the members To realize be

done II we wish to preserve this historic
structure so dear to the hearts of the pe0-
pie This committee could also be en-
powered tC dispose of or destroy the great
quantity of cid and useless publications
which are endangerins the building by
their weight and infammabIe nature
i would also suggest that the Lesisia-
ture give consideration TO providing
more bUsinesSIIke system for the handling
Of the finances Of the State and OF the
counties, and q committee might be ap-
pointed to make suggestions along this
line. There is something wrong with
system under which officials can get far in
arrears with the public funds, as has oc-
Cured in many counties of the state. and
if the remedy can be supplied by legisIa-
tive enactment IL should be done without
unnecessary delay. / might also add that
there is not the same care exercised in
providing checks on some of the State
departments that a private concern hay
ing due regard TO business principles
would require. and while We have been
fortunate in having officers whose person
al integrity has kept the State from loss,
still it behcoves the peoples representa-
tives to provide all proper safeguards to
cop that The DubIfr funds are eyDended

MISS STONES PLIGHT.

IT Is GRATIFYING to hear that
the captors Of Miss Stone are
4 thought to have been located in a
mountain on the Turko-Bulgarian
frontier. BY surrounding their re-
treat with troops, it is believed they
can be forced to surrender.
If this report proves true. and
Miss Stone can be released by force
of arms and her captors taken pris-
onefs, the effect VIII be much better
than if he. liberty had been secured
by the payment If the ransom. StIn,
if this hope proves futile, Americans
should not hesitate to agree to the
terms demanded by the brigands, and
in the meantime there should be no
relaxation in the endoavor that is
being made to raise the necessary
fund.
In the majority of instances 1t is
bad public policy to pay ran
SONS. Success in one instance
simply inspires the kidnapers
TO renew their depredations.
Indeed, this has already been
urged in the case of Miss Stone, but,
fortunately, the argument need have
no weight
So soon as the ransom is paid and
Miss Stone is placed in safety,
means can be found for makirs
them sorry they ever accepted the
money. 1t was a maxim of the elder
Pitt that he would make the name of
Engllshman a passport that would
protect him in any country in the
world. The same should be true of
the name American, and once Miss
Stone is safe our government should
compel the sultan to see that her cap
tors are brought 60 punishment

home city. This must be looked upon
as an exhibition of genuine patriot
ism
It is the misfortune OF almost
every city that the counsil is looked
upon as an asylum for political bank
rupts, or training school for en-
bryo statesmen; both are as putty in
the hards Of jobbers, and the public
interests -1ffer till the municipal
government becomes a stencil in the
nostrils of al good men.
The democrats of Salt Lake will
be wise if they reinforce the splendid
ticket they nominated on Wednesday
by selecting good men for the city
council in each Of the five precincts.
The best men in the city are none too
good to be called to the front at this
critical time in the history ef the
community. To deal with the serious
municipal problems that are to come
up in the immediate future, reliable,
conservative and experienced men
are needed 1t is a good time for
strong Democrats to make sacrifices
for the benefit of all the people of
the city.
