The people of Utah will regret
to hear .thstthe miners OF Schoheld
have decided 10 goout on a strike.
We know there is two sides 20 this
question and the miners must
have some grievance but this is
another case where charity should
cover multitude OF sins. When
the awful catastrophe of last sum-
mer startled the world and
brought death to 50 many Of the
Schofeld miners, the public ard
the Pleasant Valley Coal Co. gave
literally Of their means to aid the
unfortunate ones who were left TO
mourn, The coal company was
exonera,ed from responsibility and
gave $500 to the family Of each
man killed, a total of 100000. Ii
is a rare occuranCe when a com
pany does such magnificent
charitable act and this should rot
be forgotten when the miners are
thinking about their grievances
The people Of the country will not
forget this and in this strike the
public sentiment will be on the
side Of the employers.

Whatever may be said OF the scientific
causes upon which the Rev Ill Il. Hicks
has yearly forecasts Of storm and weather
it is remarkable fact that specific
warnings Of every great storm, flood,
cold wave and drouth, have been plain
ly printed in his now famous Almanac
for many years, The latest startling
proof Of this fact was the destruction OF
Galveston, Texas, on the very day
named by Prof. Hicks in his 1900 Al
mNnac, as one OF disasters by storm along
the gulf coasts. The 1901 Almanac, by
far the finest most complete and beautl-
iul yet published is now ready. this
remarkable book OF near two hundred
pages, splendidly illustrated with charts
and hali-tone engravings, goes as n
premium to every subscriber who pays
one dollar year for Prof. Hicks jour
nal, WoRD AND WoRKs. The Almanac
alone is sent prepaid for only 25c.

FOREIGN FINANCIAL AND TRADE OUTLOOK
British Spectators Are Sanguine, While Ger
mans Are Buying Only Fixed
Interest Bearers

LONDON, Dec. z2.-Tbe stock market
generally was more cheerful during the
last week, chiefly owing to the growing
belief here and on the continent that the
war in South Africal is really winding up
at last. Spectators drew additional
encourag cement from the better outlook
in the Uaited States, the revival of con-
fidence in France, and the belief that the
worst of the German crisis is past.
Home rails were considerably strength
ened on the announcement of the policy
Of the Northeastern railway to American
ize its traffic department, as a result of
which the railway hopes to secure ma
terial economies both in freight and
passenger aaulage. It is also under
stood that other railway lines will prob
ably initiate this policy, At the same
time the railway outlook for. the celning
year is not very promising Competent
critics declare that the railways are
steadily running rural England by their
excessive agricultural freight rates. This
same policy, it is pointed out, is largely
responsible for the existing depression In
English industrial centers. While the
programme of the railway companies UP
TO date seems to be to make up for the
diminished volume Of traffic by charging
higher freight rates OH what remains. it
is argued therefore that a radical change
of policy towards their customers, as
well as mechanical reorganization, are
necessary to put home rails upon a
basis of permanent prosperity.
Change Dealing Is Lively.
For the present, however. the stock
exchange is enjoying the year-end revival
to the utmost, and promoters of mining
securities are carefully nourishing a
boom.
