Coke Dandruff Cure and Hair Tonic
for the cure of Dandruff and all scalp
and hair troubles, whatever the pop

In Ardmore alone there are hun

themselves been cured by using 1t.
Judging from our enormous sales,
we cannot but believe Coke Dandruff

TREAT ALL ALIKE. :

WHILE THE FACT that one man
w violates the law does not furnish
a valid excuse for another violater Of
the law, The Herald believes the saloon
keepers of Salt Lake are right in their
demand that the sale of intoxicants
everywhere be suppressed on Sunday.
No matter who the offender is he
should be made to cease his offending
or pay the penalty
1t is a matter of common report that
several of the Salt Lake drug stores
sell intoxicants without any city
license whatever. If this is true, their
owners should be prosecuted. They
have no right to sell whisky or other
alcoholic, vinours or malt beverages
any day in the week.
A legal question has arisen as to the
right of restaurants to sell intoXicants
in connection with food on Sunday.
That is matter which will require adj
Indication by a court of competent
jurisdiction. It should be adjudicated
at once. If the restaurant keepers are
violating the law. and they claim they
are not. their punishment should be
no less than that of the saloon keeper.
One of the saloon men states the
case very clearly when he says:
I'VE want to close on Sunday but
we ask also that the other places be
closed the same as we are. If they
have a right to keep open, then we
think we have a right to do so. If
they are closed we are perfectly will
ing to close and stay closed on Sun
day. 1t is simply fair play that we
want. We propose to have voice in
the matter If possible. and will take
some steps at a meeting to be held
Tuesday night toward that end
\ matter that came up for discus
sion at meeting of the saloon keep
ers. held Tuesday night, is also
worthy of attention. That unspeak-
ably low person known as 1.-The saloon
bum" was a topic for debate. 1t was
the unanimous opinion of those pres
ent that the "bum" should be discour-
. ged in every way possible.
Everybody knows this individual. He
hangs around the saloons all day and
all night, mouthing his opinions and
drinking whenever patrons of the sa-
looms ask him to. Blear-eyed, unshav-
en-, untempt. bloated. repulsive, it is
high time that some measure were
taken to rid the city of this most I'M
desirable element. There is a very
slight differentiation between the
common saloon bum" and the
habitual criminal
Such fellows never do an hours
honest work and yet they seem to live
comfortably enough. AS they cannot
live honestly they must live dishon-
estly. and il is a fact beyond the pos
sibiltty of doubt that many a crime

DEMOCRATS, GET TOGETHER.

IT is A GREAT PITY that more
such Democratic gatherings as that
held at SaItair on Tuesday are not
assembled. In the course of a year
very few opportunities are given TO
loyal party men and wopen to meet
together, away from the heat and the
turmoil of political strife. for social
purposes only. If Democrats under
stood each other bester there would
be much less of thS misunderstand-
ings and the soreness that cause dis
sentions and lead TO disaster at the
polls.
People who understand the situation
will not deny that when the Demo-
cratic party is united it is nearly al
ways victorious in Salt Lake county,
in the state and in the nation. The
best way to unite a party is to bring
its adherents together on a friendly
equality. Men and women who break
bread together. who talk and walk
and dance together, are not very apt to
be enemies.
Democratic day at Saitair was a sue
cess. therefore, in every respect. Old
and young members of the party were
there from various sections of the
state, Salt Lake, of course, contribu-
ting the largest proportion of the
total. Those who saw the little groups
and the big groups talking or eating or
bathing together could not but be bet
ter pleased with the outlook for the
fan campaign.

IRRIGATION IN UTAH.

irrigation in Utah. Preceding the fig

is a resume of the beginning of the
work here. More than one-half of
Utah, as is well known, belongs to the
Great Basin. the bed of the great inland
sea which once extended from. the
western boundary of Utah across Ne
vada TO the Sierras in California.
"a peculiar interest is attached to
the Great Basin in Utah" says the re-
port. from the fact that II is the ioca-
tion of the first irrigation enterprise of
considerable Importance in the arid
west by the Anglo-Saxons. In IS47 the
Mormon pioneers turned. the waters of
City creek upon the parehed soil of
Salt Lake valley. These pioneers came
from the middle vest. and were wholly
unacquainted with irrigation. Their
hardships were numerous and severe in
the first years of their settlement. The

PIONEER DAY.

A DISTINCTIVELY UTAH holiday is
\ to be celebrated today. a holiday
near to the hearts of the descendants
of that little caravan that, from the
mouth of Emigration canyon, fifty-five
years ago today looked out upon the
promised land. For months those pio-
neers had wandered in the wilderness
in a solitary way. Beset by the pangs
of thirst and hunger. terrorized by
savage Indians, they had fought their
way almost inch by inch, across the
trackless mountains to the valley of
the Jordan.
1t didn't look much like garden
spot. this valley which is now the ad-
miration and the wonder of all who
come to see it; but the pioneers called
it home. Fifty-five years ago it was
home in name only; today it is home in
all that the sacred word implies. 1t is
| well to keep the memory of this brave
company green by annual celebrations.
If ever a people deserved loyalty and
honor at the hands and hearts of their
children, these do.

development or agriculture and irriga-
ton in this valley presents the best ex-
ample of the value of cooperation in
the construction Of irrigation works
and in the distribution of water
agriculture by the Mormons was IN
tensive, the tendency from the first be-
ing TO restrict the areas and to estao-
lish small communities. Naturally, the
seanty water supply influenced this
form of farming in no slight degree.
The valley in which the first settle
ment was made continues to hold first
place in the state. in points of popula-
ton. wealth and agricultural develop
neut. More than one-third of the pop
uIati6n resides in this section In 1889
the value of the land and buildings was
nearly 30 per cent. and the value of
products more than % per cent OF that

table which shows the irrigation
population by counties is furnished in
connection with the report. An idea of
the growth of irrigation is obtained
from the fact that in 1889 there were
just s.7s4 farmers who raised crops by
in 1899 II .924 of them had adopted this
method. The total acreage in 1899 was
629, 293, as compared with 263.473 in 1889.
An interesting study is afforded in
the acreage by counties and the num-
Der of irrigators. In salt Lake county
2,11O irrigators till Sass acres; in Utah
county 1915 irrigators have TASTE acres
under cultivation. Cache county stands
third, with 1,5S2 irrigators and 5S.65S
acres. Sanpete. with 1850 irrigators
and 61.46O acres, isn't so very far be-
hind in farmers and is ahead of both
Salt Lake and Cache in the total acre
age. The only other county with more
than 1000 irrigators is Weber, with
1.417 to 80, Ill acres of ground.
The report concludes: "Of the 6S6,374
acres in crops, 537 ,5SS acres, or 1873 per
duced on irrigated land were, hay and
forage, 330,57S acres. or 61.5 per cent of

Rumors Due to Rivalry.

Chicago, June 27.--While there may
be a gigantic combination of all the
packing interests brought about in tht
future, it is thought that many of the
recent reports of such an impendins
consolidation are due to the rivalry be-
tween two of the larger companies.
1t is well known that Armour anC
Swift have for a number of years beer
reaching out for the control of the
packing business. When one bought q
new plant or established Il new storage
house in some part of the country the
other would pursue a similar policy OF
expansion. While it has been charged
that there was at all times harmony
OF interest plan" in existence between
the two firms, it also is stated that each
planned to become the power in the
packing world.
When it became known that Swift &
Co. intended taking over the Anglo
American Provision Company, Armour
q Co. began dickering for the control
of the Omaha Packing Company. 1t
may be planned ultimately to merge all
the large companies into combination,
hut it is regarded as more likely that
some of the large companies are only
absorbing some of their weaker COM
petitOrS,
