Stones Fell In Fl. D eFrance-PeopIe
Badly Scared.
Fort De France, May 21.-Yester-
day morning at half-past a thick,
heavy cloud, lit up by flashes of light
ming and the rising sun, rose from
Mont Pelee. The people of Fort de
France became panic stricken and in
scant attire ru' he'd excitedly through
the streets of the town. Stones from
the volcano as big as hazel nuts fell
in the streets. Many of the inhabi
tants hurriedly embarked on the YES
sells in the harbor, and it was with
difficulty that they were eventually
treasured. At Z o'clock, however, the
excitement was over and the people
became calm.

Is no activity In the business any
where. Cameron, which had lit
tie boom, Is now dull. The South
Penn Oil company practically owns
the whole Cameron field and all
know what that means-slow de-
velopments, poor wages and but
very little chance for the middle
man.
It's reported In the newspapers
that the South Penn Oil company
has stopped every string of tools
working for 1t In the Salem field.
The independent producer without
any united effort or combination,
appears to have unanimously de-
cided to let things run as they have
been, knowing that to produce oil
at the prices offered now by the
Standard, pays no one bat the
Standard. They have been beaten
and starved out of their holdings
so often they have lost all heart
and are determined to sit still and
let the production be used up. 1t

ard. We can hardly hope for such
good news but 1t will come by and
by. We can expect no help from
the present administration. What
Is being done Is only very slim,
thin, gauzy bluff.
It's reported the great wells on
Spindle Top, In Texas, have ceased
to flow. This may be true or not.
The Derrick continues daily to
roast the Texas field, which Is very
good evidence that the Standard
Oil Company thinks there Is some.
thing In this oil. There Is hardly
a single issue of the Derrick that
does not contain from one to thee
columns about the Texas oil field,
very discouraging news 1t Is, too.
Just why the Derrick devotes so
much time to roasting an oil pool
we have been told Is positively
worthless, Is hard to understand
unless the Derrick Is roasting the
pool for a purpose, which 1t no
doubt Is. Everybody In the Oil
country knows the Derrick will do
anything to get the Standard into
control of production. then 1t be-
comes silent, and pretends then to
be an Organ of OIL" We believe
the Texas field will stop flowing, but
1t will produce many barrels of
oil yet before 1t is exhausted. The
Derrick's rantings Is all for the
Standard and nothing else.
The Derrick Is also writing long
articles about dishonest oil com.

are bat babes In the business com
pared with the Standard. The Der
rick's ideas of an honest oil Is com.
pany for everybody to work and
spendtheir money to get oil and then
let the Standard have 1t at Its own
price. That's the Derrick's Idea Of
honesty. So long as Its favorite
does the robbing, all Is well.
The oil business Is as brisk here
as 1t Is anywhere, In fact, 1t Is more
active around this field than 1t Is
anywhere else. Kentucky is abou,
ended. Texas Is gone up, and
wherever you turn the outlook Is
dark. By and by the price of oil
will go up and when 1t does then
things will boom again as of yore.

CONGRESSIONAL HysTERlA.

T. VERY LITTLE WHILE congress
l. passes through a period Of moral
hysteria. 1t is violent while it lasts,
but the reaction usually sets in prompt
". 1t was in such a sDasm that the
house passed the Bowersock amend
ment to the Shattuc immigration bill.
Mr.. Bowersock is from Kansas, where
all the citizens are prohibltionists. or
ought to be. The trend of sentiment in
his district is toward teetotalism:
therefore, in offering his resolution TO
prohibit the sale Of beer at government
immigration stations. Mr.. Bowersock
was merely repairing his fences against
the coming election.
There are others in the house who
need campaign thunder, and they joy
ously joined in helping Mr.. Bowersock's
political carpentry along. They will
need something later on themselves,
and they might want Bowersock to
help them out. So the immigrants will
be denied the privilege Of drinking beer
on government territory. 1t is absurd
TO argue, as some congressman argued,
that the prohibition viii have the effect
OF keeping out a desirable class Of i'm
migrants. Those who are coming to
this country win come anyway, even if
they do have to send outside for beer.
The only persons who win be bene-
fitted by the amendment win be the men
who operate saloons near the immi-
grant stations. BY making it harder
for the newcomers to get beer, congress
is holding out inducements for them to
get it in greater quantities and to drink
more of it. The principle is the same
as the army canteen. and the unwisdom
OF the abolition Of that feature of post
life has been repeatedly demonstrated
here IN salt Lake. And it win continue
to be demonstrated with each visit Of
the paymaster.
There is another phase of the case to
which attention was called during the
debate on the BOwersOck resolution.
The congressman themselves drink
whisky. beer and wine every day in
the capital restaurants on government
territory. Mr.. Lands Of Indiana an
nounced that he would introduce a res
olution forbidding the sale Of intoxi-
cants there but It has about as much
chance to pass both houses as would
n resolution cutting down the pay of
the members TO s. a year-which is
more than some Of them earn.

ImPoRTANT ExPERIMEMTs.

IT WOULD BE HARD to over-esu-
4 mate the Importance TO Utah Of the
experiments soon to be begun by agri-
cultural department expersts on the
alkaH flats lying between the Jordan
river and the lake. Ever since the
valley was settled this land has lain
idle and unDroductive. From time to
time Intellectual efforts to reclaim it
have been made, but those interested
have invariably stopped trying after a
few failures. Now the government has
taken the matter in charge. and, if
scientific work can accomplish the de-
sired result. it will soon become a thing
accomplished.
Professor J. A. Widstoe of the Agri-
cultural college, J. A. Wright of ogden
and Messrs. Heilemann and Means OF
the department Of agriculture have the
work in charge. They viii try drain
age at depth as a method Of reclaim
ing the land. This has never been at
tempted before. for the reason, chiefly.
that Il was considered too expensive
Other land could be secured for a cost
beneath that for which the alkali fats
could be put in arabic condition. It is
thought by the experts that the terri
tory can be made serviceable as fruit
land
If their experiments are crowned
with success, it is estimated that moi
less than S1O.O0OOOO viii be added tC
the land values of the state within a
brief distance of salt Lake City alone
More than this, a most unlovely stretch
Of country win be transformed into
productive farms and comforta bic
homes. All the citizens of the state viii

keenest interest. coupled with the sin
cersst hopes that their expectation

It is as difficult to understand the
workings of some minds as to fathom
the DEGREES Of Providence. Take the
case of Horace Storms. who killed
himself at Highland Falls, n. Y, a few
days ago. Storms was a monumental
example of patience under grievous
difficulty. His life was an inspiration
to the sick and the helpless, the feeble
in body and in mind. When he was
only is months old a careless nurse let
him fan. His spine was broken and
he was never able to walk upright like
other men.
Instead, he could only get about by
crawling on his hands and knees.
Despite this fearful handicap, storms
made living, and a good one, by sell
ing pencils, pens and stationery. It is
said that he was always cheerful, quick
with a joke and quick to respond to u
witticism, For eighty-four years he
struggled through a physically crooked
/ existence. Then the time came when
he could stand it no longer and he COM
mitted suicide.
Perhaps the old man thought he had
done his full duty to his neighbors and
himself Nobody knows, or ever win
know. how often during his long life
he IOnged for death to release him from
his suffering. And as he saw the friends
of his boyhOOd so down to the grave
one after the other; as he saw babes
grow up, raise families. have grand
children about them and then pass
beyond the veil, he thought Death had
forgotten him. So he took his own life
Has any one the heart to blame him
Can any say he did not run a good
race. even though he did not finish the
/ course?

HANNA AND THE PRESIDENCY.

HE OHIO REPUBLICAN, conven-
ton is held in the hollow of one
mans hand. and the hand is the hand
Of Marcus Alonzo Hanna. Senator
Foraker. champion of Roosevelt and
opponent Of Hanna, seems to have sim
mered out Of the running altogether.
The convention is described as Hanna
'love-feast" 1t was for Hanna for
president, with the understanding that
it didn't love Roosevelt less. but Hanna
more. There's where the politics of
the situation came in.
Hanna knows that Roosevelt viii be
at least a formidable candidate for the
Republican presidential nomination in
1904. The president has been bending
every energy in that direction. All the
immense leverage of his office is even
now being used in the furtherance of
his ambition. Roosevelt likes the pres
idential chair He thinks ne fits it as
snugly as he ever fit into a rough rider
saddle. Hanna is just a trihe afraid
Of the young man.
Hanna doesn't forget that for nearly
| three years yet Roosevelt will be pres
ident, Providence permitting. Three
years is a long time. a great many
scores could be evened up in three
/ years. Hanna bankers after the flesh
pots. There are a few offices in Ohio
and elsewhere which he would like to
put away for his personal friends. Open
| opposition to Roosevelt would make it
impossible for him to reward his faith
full henchmen. Therefore he permits no
nti-Roosevelt demonstration in his
| convention.
Unless conditions change nightly
between now and 1904. Hanna will be a
| candidate for the Republican nonina-
ton for the presidency. He has denied
this many a time, and win, perhaps,
deny it again, but the lady doth pro-
test too much" Hanna will be a can
didate. in all probability, Roosevelt or
no Roosevelt, and Ohio viii line up
solidly behind him, Foraker or no
! Foraker. But the senior senator from
the Buckeye state is too smooth to
want an open rupture Just now. for the
/ reasons already stated
He has knife handy and, when the
ides Of March arrives, he will jam it
between two of the strenuous ones ribs
and jam it hard And. by the way. it
may be added that no Republican pres
idential candidate could suit the Dem
ocrats any better than Hanna, unless
it is Roosevelt himself.

UNREFLEcTINe REFLECTIONS.

IN THE CURRENT Atlantic Monthly
1 Brooke Fisher has some IN
rejecting reflections on "The News
naper Industry" Mr.e Fisher hasn't
much use for the modern meth
od Of newspaper making. He
deplores the fact that the long and
tedious debates in congress are not
printed fully and prominently. as the
English journals handle the discus
sions in parliament. Mr.. Fisher de-
clares that American newspapers are
entirely too local: that is, they devote
too many columns every day to home
happenings. The Herald has not the
honor of an acquaintance with the
writer. but it feels safe in the predic-
ton that any paper run along the
lines indicated by Mr.. Fisher would
be neither influential nor readable.
The best possible answer to the argu-
ments he advances is found in the cir
cuIation figures of twentieth century
newspapers. 1t has been said that any
thing people can be induced to read
is news. The paper that prints the
most interesting matter and the great
est quantity Of such matter is the
most widely read paper. There is fire.
quently toe much attention given to
sensationalism in the display of news,
but that is largely a matter Of indi-
vidual judgment. When a newspaper
has an important item 1t is just as
necessary that that item be placed
where subscribers viii see it as for the
merchant TO display his wares attrac-
lively.

A QUESTION OF TIME.

To The Salt Lake Herald:
Does a traveller going east gain
time or does he gain it going west."
This question of your own asking opens
wide field for jugglery, and yet it is
one strictly within the province of
mathematics. Time and space will not
permit of a thorough treatment Of the
subject, but we viii deal with it in a
simple and comprehensive manner.
Time, in the literal sense, can neither
be lost nor gained, as the following H.
lustration viii prove. Let two tray
elers start east at a given time and
continue together until a complete
circle of the globe is made, one deaf.
dumb and blind. with nothing to use
for observation but a regulated watch
with raised figures; the other with no
| timekeeper, out all senses complete.
each keeping a daily diary. On arrival
at the starting point, say Sunday. the
one with sight, after consulting his
/ diary, would wonder why the people
were going 10 church on Monday, while
/ the blind one would be in harmony
with the local conditions. Invert the
problem. considering the start to the
west. At the outcome the man of
/ senses would declare it TO be Saturday,
/ but the dumb one would say nay, nay,
/ tbs Sunday. The length of time occu-
pied by the journey forms no factor in
the real question at issue.
The philosophy Of the problem rests
/ in the fact that an object moving on
the earth's surface in the direction
I the earth is travelling by virtue Of the
axis, is equivalent TO an increase in
/ the earth's speed, so far as the OBJ
/ ject is concerned, and therefore the
objects solar day would be shortened.
In going west the same principle must
apply to the effect Of lessenging the
speed and thereby frightening the day.
