BUILD A NEW JAIL.

IN HIS ADDRESS before the Mothers
4 congress Frank B. Stephens very
properly called attention to the miser-
able shack in which the city Of Salt
Lake is housing it's petty criminals. The
Jail is worse than Mr.. Stephens pictured
it. Indeed, both from the sanitary as
well as the humane points Of view, it is
indescribably offensive to the decent
element Of the population. 1t may be
said that criminals have no rights
which decent people are bound to re-
spect. This is far from true.
Penal institutions are intended as
much to reform crime as to prevent it.
The Incarceration Of men and women
and children in the vile hole back Of
the police headquarters is in itself al
most criminal. And the responsibility
for existing conditions may be traced
surely and directly to the city council
For many months jail fund has lain
idle in one of the city banks. The
money was derived from an auction
sale of city property. the published pur-
pose OF which was to secure the sum
necessary 70 build a decent Jail,
Why this has not been done only the
coancil and an all-wise Providence can
say. Perhaps it is desired TO make as
good a showing of cash on hand as
possible. This is one of the tricks Re-
publican councils have heretofore been
guilty of. tt is dishonest and dishon-
orable on its face. and the public should
tolerate il no longer. The city Jail fund
cannot legally be used for any purpose
other than the erection OF a Jail. Coun-
cilmen cannot plead the poverty Of the
municipality as an excuse for delay.
with anything like energetic work
the structure could have been completed
and occupied months ago. It is not an
undertaking Of such stupendous mag
nltude as to require years Of thought
and labor. Some day a prisoner is go
ing 20 waken to his rights long enough
to sue for damages for being thrown
into the present jail. And the chances
are that he viii secure a judgment
Surely he should be given damages.
When the law requires that a man be
punished for certain offenses, it does
not contemplate that torture shall be
added to Incarceration.
That is what confinement in the city
Jail amounts TO Just now 1t is time the
council took some definite action.

Polite, But spunky.

The following story is told of a Ger
man, who, after making a fortune as
salOonkeeper. decided to move out upon
d small farm in the suburbs of Phila-
delphia. Soon after his change of res
idence, during a visit to the city, he
met one Of his former neighbors. Mr.
Schmidt, beaming all over with smiles,
told him how glad he was to see him.
and" says he. you must gone and
see my blaze. And you must see leetle
awcOb-since We moved Oud, he vas
shust so perlite and shpunky as can
pc"
Several months after the neighbor
paid Mr.. Schmidt a visit, and, after
supper, they were sitting out upon the
lawn, while little Yawcob was busy
making mud pies on the driveway. Sud
denly Mr.. Schmidt called out. "Yaw-
cob" Vel, fader?' said Yawcob.
"Nodding." said Mr.. Schmidt. and.
turning to his visitor, he remarked:
You see he is perlite; he always an
swers me nit reshpeck." Five minutes
later the same test of Yawcob's polite
ness was made, with the same hatter-
ing result. You see" observed the
proud father, i can gall so often as I
please, and he always reblies NIT resh-
peck.
After another brief spell Of CONVEX
sation the old gentleman again dis
turbed Yawcob in his amusement. Like
flash the boy turned and yelled. out:
''Vader, if YOU don't shut up, I'll hit
you in de face" For a. moment the
father was nonplussed, but gradually
a proud smile broke over his face as he
remarked: You see. he ISL shpunky,

stefan almost from his cradle and at
the age of he had mastered the fage7
olet without a teacher. It.is said that
one publishing house alone paid $4,000
for his compositions.
Foster was very improvident and
was often forced to sell for a few dol
lars what brought fortune TO its pur-
chaser. Several OF his best songs were
composed in the back room of a grocery
store on pieces Of byown paper. He
died in the city hospital in New York,

which are Matching out down there in
millions. viii destroy every vestige Of
vegetation. They have tried various
methods Of determination and pfotec-
ton. but without avail
One plan that has not been used, so
far as The Herald is aware. is what IS
known in Kansas as the hopper
dozer." Several years Of experience in
the Sunfower state have proven that
the hopper dozer" will accomplish the
work for which it is Intended; that is,
the absolute extinction of the grass
hopper pest. The cheapness of the de-
vice and the ease with which it is OPP
Grated are arguments in its favor. 1t
cannot cost much to make the expert
ment and the results may be the saving
of all the crops threatened by the
Melanoplus spretus.
Professor S. J. Hunter. who occupies
the chair Of entomology at the Uni
versity Of Kansas. and who has ac-
quired distinction as a fighter Of insect
pests, strongly recommends the hop
per dozer," which he has tried with
unvarying success. The implement
consists Of two galvanized iron pans,
each four feet long, laid end to-end on
runners Of a height which varies with
the height of the crop to be protected.
The pans should be not less than two
inches deep. in front and four inches
deep behind. At the rear the iron
should be raised not less than three
feet in order to prevent the grasshop-
pers from jumping over the hopper
dozer" when it is driven through the
field
Fill the pans with water and coal oil
in the proportion OF a half gaIlon of
the latter to two buckets of the former.
Professor Hunter says such a machine
costs not to exceed s., and it never
wears out. 1t should be driven back
and forth across the field where the
grasshoppers' are until the pans are
filled with them. Then the insects are
removed. the oil and water replenished
and the operation continued until the
field is rid OF the pest. 1t VIII be found,
says Professor Hunter, that many
grasshoppers jump into the pans and
out again, but these insects invariably
die
In order TO make it thoroughly effec-
tive the machine must be used only on
dry. sunshiny days, when the grass
hoppers are feeding in the vegetation
and are lively. On cloudy, cold days
they lie close to the soil and are hard
to move. 1t would seem that the farm
ers in Sanpete county and other sec
lions Of the state who are threatened
with a grasshopper plague might be
able to save their crops through the use
Of this implement. At any rate. no
possible harm can result from a trial
of il.

ANOTHER WORM TURNS.

One MORE WORM has turned This
~ time the invertebrate that sudden
ly discovered its stiffening power is a
preacher, a meek and lowly Individual
who had for years looked after the
moral and spiritual welfare of little
flock in the town of CentreviHe, near
Salem. n. ]. The poor man had been
struggling along under his burden
without protest so long that his par
ishioners had grown accustomed to
showing heavier and heavier loads upon
him. At last he received a call to act
as chaplain of penitentiary. He ac-
cepted it with expressions of undying
gratitude and told his congregation
goodbye thusly:
Brothers and sisters. come to say
goodbye. 1 don't think God loves this
church. because none of you ever die.
don't think you love each other, be-
cause you have not paid my salary.
Your donations are moldy fruit and
wormy apples. and by their fruits We
shall know them. Brothers, I am go
ing to a better place. have been
called to be chaplain Of a penitentiary.
I go to prepare a place for you, and
may the Lord have mercy on your
souls. Goodbye"
That was rubbing it in" about as
hard as it could possibly be done, and
the chances are that the congregation
/ deserved all it got and a great deal
more With the possible exception Of
newspaper men, no class of workers
does more for nothing or is expected
to do more for nothing than preachers.

day, for they. never know at what mo-
ment their services win be in demand.
When they go to funerals they see the

harder than any Of the others, they

People make their ministers a sort
of trouble clearing house. Woes of all
sorts and descriptions are poured out TO
them and on them for mighty little
money. for on the average. the preach
er is the poorest paid professional man
in existence. The New Jersey gentle
man who got moldy fruit and wormy
apples is a fair sample. It is possible
that he win greet many of his former

ance that they won't be in a position

KICKING THE WEST.

It HE GREAT LOVE professed by the
4 Republicans of the east for the
west during the last presidential cam
paign is not assaying very high just
now. In fact, the vein may be said, in
mining parlance. to have ''pinched out"
altogether This is indicated by the
fact that the house has decided to
place the irrigation bill last on the
calendar. That means that, in the rush
and hurry Of the closing hours of the
session. it viii either be talked to death
or defeated By a snap vote. The pros
pect is certainly not alluring to those
who had been hoping and believing
simple justice would be done to the
west
Western congressman are all right, in
the eyes of the fasteners, when it
comes to passing ship subsidy grabs
and rivers and harbors steals. It is all
right. when an appropriation of 81 ,000
600 for the purpose Of Strengthening out
a bend i'm the Maine creek is wanted
by some anxious member Of the house,
to hold out hopes to the westerners that
something viii also be done for them.
And then, when the bunco game has
been worked. it is fashionable for the
confidence men in congress to smile be
hind their hands and say. one to an
other: These brOncho busters are SO
easy we Just hate to do them"
Isn't it about time the representatives
-
Montana and the Dakotas and other
western states vitality interested in ir-
rigation quit buying political gold
bricks? Isn't it time they quit burning
their own fingers to pull eastern chest
nuts out Of the embers? Verify, it is
time. BY the exhibition Of a proper
amount Of nerve and grit the western
ers could make those legislative sharps
respect them. There are enough men
from the arid and semi-arid states to
hold up more than few pet measures
and steals.
Heretofore they have been satisfied
with promises. promises that were made
with no idea of fulhnment. The game
has been worked until it is as thread
bare as the lock trick in Salt Lake. the
shell game at the country fair or the
crooked faro box in the private room.
Nothing less than an agreement by the
majority to place the Irrigation bill
several weeks distant from the end Of
the session should satisfy the western
congressman.
Never before has the demand for
recognition from this section of the
country been so strong. If the repre-
sentatives of the west do not exhaust
every proper method OF securing that
recognition they will have proven recre-
ant to the trust reposed in them by
their constituents.

LEES SURRENDER,

TO The Salt Lake Herald:
A prominent minister of this city
delivered a splendid memorial sermon
last Sunday, and the next mornings
papers make him use the following
language: When Lee handed his sword
out and General Grant took it, etc.
The truth is that Lee did not hand
his sword out" and Grant did not
take it, Nothing was thought or said
about Lees sword when those two
great men were in conference at Apo
mattox. See Grants Memoirs. They
met, not as captOr and captive. but
with a mutual respect and confidence
that made them brothers. The magni-
tude Of the occasion, the greatness Of
the leaders, and the mOmentous issues
which waited upon their exchange of
views on that historic morning. as well
as upon their exercise of self-respect
for each other, made it impossible that
the one should offer his sword, or that
the other should demand or receive it.
Grant and Lee are both dead but the
lesson of dignified, courteous and warm
fTaternal salutations, and respectful
conduct toward each other at Apo
mattox, Will endear them to a COM
mon country through all the future
ages.
