change has come over the spirit OF our
dreams. We might continue through
the entire series, but time and space
forbid.
No wonder our Angeles have left their
canvas and are tunneling mountains for
the highway of trade. The brains OF our
Millions are saturated with coal oil. Our
Longfellows and ">hortfellows" have
been miraculously transformed into
"bulls" and "bcars," and are groveling
and wallowing in the stock pen. Our
Shakspeares are engaged in financing
gigantic combinations by which they
control the destinies Of men and nations.
Our Ieffersons are writing Declarations
of Dependence for our subjects" in the
isles of the seas, while our Lincolns issue
DEGREES of oppression and proclamations
of criminal aggression to men crying for
Liberty or Death.
Commercialism cannot produce an inn
mortal. 1t cannot beget a Beethoven.
It cannot create Leonidas or Lincoln,
or bring forth Shakespeare. 1t can,
however, pile up fortunes to be dissi-
pated, and erect palaces to rot. 1t can
build a Babylon, Nineveh or Carthage
to crumble in decay and ruin.
The problem of problems, the most
momentous issue of the hour, is how to
turn back the tide of commercialism
now sweeping this republic backward
toward the dark ages where "Might was
the supreme law Of existence"
The example of the American republic
is no longer menace to tyrants, but an
encouragement to them. Our Fourth of
July celebration, having become hollow
mockery, no longer strikes terror to
kings. Crowns and thrones are more
secure today than at any time since the
Minute Men at Lexington fired the shot
that was heard around the world.
Our ideals have changed, and the OPP
pressors of men, from the British Lion
to the Sultan of Sulu, rejoice to well
come us into the bloody brotherhood OF
Tyranny.
The poison of commercialism runs riot
in our blood. Our ears are no longer
open to the cries of the oppressed Beers,
nor the struggling Filipinos. Our hand
is stretched out to Cuba, not to bless,
but to strike. Our path to Porto Rico
was strewn with flowers, and in return
we have taxed that trusting people in
the interest of Sugar Lords and Tobacco
Barcns. The nation is drunken witch tho
lust Of empire and crazed with the love
of greed. Democracy is the only anti
dote, but the patient has SO far refused
the treatment. Sometimes it takes a
century for this disease from which we
are suffering to kill. But unless some
remedy is applied death is inevitable.

nULVEY TO MANAGE
THE SALT PALACE
viii Present Light Opera Dur
ing the Summer.
ACTION OF DIRECTORS
TO CONDUCT RESORT ON ELITCH
GARDEN PLAN.

NJ. L. Mulvey viii manage the Salt
Palace this year. This is the statement
given out by President Morrison after
the directory meeting last night. There
were numerous applications for the
management of this resort, and the di-
rectors have been slow in making the
choice, as past experience has proven
that it was a hard proposition to
handle.
Owing to the peculiar combination of
amusements to which the Salt Palace
is adapted, the directors. after due con-
sideration. came to the conclusion that
Mr.. Mulvey would be the proper man
for the place. and offered him the po-
sition, which he accepted.
Mr.. Mulvey was seen last evening in
regard to his plans for the season, and
stated that it was a little early as yet
TO go into all the details. but gave a.
general outline of what ne would do to
make this place popular resort on the
plan OF the Glitch gardens of Denver.
In the first place" said Mr.. Null
Vey, this will not be a cheap place,
that is, nothing of the cheap order will
be presented in the future at the Salt
Palace. Men will be put to work at

1t is also the intention to secureIfrst-
class outside attractions of the Midway
style, and an effort will be made to Sc
cure the best specialties in this line
from the pan-American exposition. as
their contracts at that place expire dur
ing the summer Dancing will be given
free to the children in the afternoons.
at which time adults will rot be al
lowed on the floor.
Mr.. Mulvey has made arrangements
to introduce novelty in a female or
chestra, which will, with a male band,
furnish music for the resort.
The cycle track will come in for it's
share of improvements, and the entire
structure will be Overhauled and
strengthened
r. T. Carruthers will be sent east in
couple of weeks to secure attractions,
and while there will engage some of
the best cycle riders III the country to
come here to race. 1t is proposed to
offer larger purses than has been the
custom in the past. It was announced
last evening that the price of admis-
sion to the grounds would remain the
same as last year.

evening, when he saw the suspect walk
across from the opposite side of the
street and start down the sidewalk be-
hind woman who was some distance
ahead of them. He seemed to be fol-
lowing the woman and caught up with
her and walked beside her for a short
distance. He suspected that some
thing was wrong and hurried up to the
woman. The man then turned back
and went into dark alley. The young
/ man followed and found the suspect
in a STOPPING posture in the shadow
of the fence He Immediately took the
man into custody and asked some men
who were passing to call the patrol.
The man declared that he had done
nothing wrong, but offered no resist

When the patrol arrived the officer
questioned the woman who was sup
posed to have been followed, but she
declared that the man had not spoken
TO her and had not made any advances
to her.
The suspect and the parties who
captured him were taken to the police
station. At the station the prisoner de-
clared that he was on his way home
and happened to walk up by the Wom-

had attempted nothing wrong He said

amused themselves by protecting with

1t was great sport for time to see
the people who opened the door re-
ceive a distinct thrill as their hands
touched the knob. But this fun palled
after a time and the lads sighed for
more worlds TO conquer. Finally they
hitched the wire to a zinc tub that
stands under a water faucet in a rear
room. 1t was damp around the tub
and the idea was that when anybody
turned on the water, the running
stream would form a connection that
would give a sure enough shock to
his nervous system.
For twenty minutes nobody went near
the faucet. The existence of the live
wire was becoming hazy memory in

The report recommends that the de-

apparatus, so that better results may
be obtained in the inspection of water
and milk supply and food products to
determine purity. 1t is urged that the
sewers be extended. that property own
ers be compelled to connect with the
system in all districts where the sewer
laterals run, and that the garbage
crematory be rebuilt. The efficacy of
fumigating infected homes with for
maldehYde is pointed out as an achieve
ment in the direction of preventing the
spread of contagion. but the difficulty
of enforcing proper quarantine regu-
lations is mentioned as a, serious mat
ter. Prejudice toward modern sanitary
science is attributable for this condi-
ton.

Suddenly young Cowan concluded he
was thirsty. Forgetting all about the
wire he rushed out and turned on the
water.
Those in the next room heard him
give a short, sharp moan and then fail
heavily to the floor When they rushed
to aid him he was stretched out, limp
and apparently lifeless. The boy was
picked up and placed on a bench and
DR.. Beer was called to attend him. 1t
was fifteen minutes before Cowan gave
any evidence that he was still in the
land of u living and it took half an
hour of work to bring him thor

When he lad Deen revived he was
placed in a Carriage and sent home.
Then one of the boys unlocked the
wire that had caused the trouble and
