ON DANGEROUS GROUND.

COLONEL CHARLES w. HARMED,
- head of the department Of drawing
at the United States Military academy.
is in a fair way to be pushed around
little by President Roosevelt. Colonel
Larned has been writing. in the Inter-
national Monthly, his impressions OF
THE Modern Soldier, and Military Les
sons of Recent Wars" After showing
the absurdity Of the vast quantities Of
tinsel with which nations have been
wont TO load their fighting men, Colo
mel Larned pays a high tribute to the
Beers. These grave, bearded, heavy
eyed, gothic men in plain clothes and
SLOUGH hats, cross belted with a couple
Of hundred death-bolts and hugging a
repeating rife. are to my mind more
dignifed and impressive as an imper-
sonation of war than all the cuiras-
siers, uhlans, hussars. grenadiers and
field marshaIs that ever bespangled a
battle field"
That IS almost heresy but Colonel
Larned puts his foot intoit irrevoeably
when he gives his ideas as to the pro-
fession of the soldier. He says it is
honorable only as it is followed with
a serious conviction Of its depIorable
necessity under existing social condi-
tons; with a profound realization that
its operations should be effective to the
extent imposed by its necessary pur-
pose and no further, and ameIorated
so far as possible by an enlightened
humanity. The glory in war for wars
sake or for personal advancement is a
barbarous and murderous appetite,
which degrades the soldier TO the level
Of the pirate" Colonel Larned looks
upon war as the symptom of social and
political disease.
Continuing, he says: 1.-THE soldier
who recognizes that his profession is,
in way, that Of a political surgeon.
win study it as a serious and honor
able science. whose virtues are self
devotion. self-control. unselfshness,
moral and physical courage, efficiency,
discipline, respect for law, integrity.
In this catalogue there is no place for
the ambition whose motive is personal
glOrihcation and power which looks
upon fighting as a means to the ac-
QUESTION Of rank and the furthering
of private interests"
That may be rank heresy from the
standpoint Of the present administra-
( ton, but nobody can deny that it is
/ sound, common sense. also. It should
be read by every man who wears his
/ country's uniform. and if they all fol-
low its teachings literally they cannot
fail to be better men, and that means
/ better soldiers.

BEWARE OF THE HATPIN.

4 CTUATED BY MOTIVES Of pure
4 philanthropy. The Herald desires
to give the footpads of the country a
little kindly admonition. Beware Of
the woman with the hatpin- That is
to say. beware of all women. Every
little while the undoing Of seme gen
tieman Of the road through the agency
Of a hatpin is chronicied. The latest
case comes from Delaware. the little
state which IS known to fame as the
private and personal property Of one
"Gas" Addicks.
According to the story, Mrs. Mary
BrOckington and her daughter, Vir-
ginia. were walking along a street in
Milton when they were attacked by
negro, who tried to steal the older
woman's purse. She chung to it and he
knocked her down. and then Virginia
came to the rescue. Drawing a hatpin
from its natural repository she at
tackled the attacker. BY the time she
finished with him his epidermis looked

notices on.
Within less than five minutes by the
village clock she sent the negro on his
way screaming with anguish almost
unbearable. Not long afterward the
footpad was arrested. His identifica-
ton was easy, for Virginia had worked
out a regular pattern on him. To most
people the pattern was unintelligible,
but to the prisoner it spelled: Beware
Of women with hatpins.' The chances
are that he viii have a long time in
which to mediate over his transgres-
sion. In the meanwhile Miss Brocking-
ton is receiving the congratulations of
the tOwnspeople and Of everybody else
who has heard Of the hOld-up.

When the comedy "a Country Girl''
was written. times were slower than
they are today. People Travelled with
OK teams and stage coaches instead of
express trains. and everything else was
on the same scale. An echo Of the era
is to be found in the play presented at
the salt Lake theatre last evening.
which has as much action for the first
hour as a man driving an OK team and
stopping every Ten rods to swap lies

watch the effect on the audience of the
epilogue. The modern play quits when

FIGHTING the MEAT TRUST.

THE PRELIMINARY sKlRMISH in
the battle Of the people against the
meat trust was won when Judge Cross
cup Of Chicago granted the temporary
Injunction asked by the government
The defendant has until Aug. to an
swer the complaint In the meanwhile
IF the members of the trust continue
the enforcement Of the agreement en-
tered into by them they win be guilty
of contempt Of court. And contempt is
no small orense where a United states
court is involved.
The Injunction goes as far as any
one could wish. If it is made perma-
nent it win have the effect Of dissolv-
ing the trust for all time. By the terms
OF the order entered by Judge Gross
cup the organizers Of the combination
are prevented from entering into an
agreement not to bid against one an
other for cattle: they may not agree
on uniform prices for meats or fix a
universal scale Of credit for butchers
neither may they curtail the shipment
Of meats either in quantity or quality
Competition of the open and keen or
der. with resultant good to the gem
eral public. should be the result Of the
Injunction.
A brief study Of the trust question is
sufficient to convince the inquirer that
It is by no means a new one. There

MUNICIPAL PROBLEMS.

IL her RECENT LECTURE under
4 the auspices of the Commercial club,
Mrs. Hamlin made one suggestion that
deserves consideration by the munich
pal authorities.
she was talking Of the economy Of a
definite plan for municipal improve
ments. and cited the case Of Harris
burg, Pa. as an instance Of what ought
to be done Like a good many other
American cities. Harrisburg had been
making haphazard improvements for
years without regard to the future
needs Of the city or the relation Of one
public work to another. The result was
a horrible example Of what a city
should not be-
After some agitation. a committee OF
experts was secured 20 study the con-
ditions and report a plan. The COM
mittee included a landscape architect.
a civil engineer. a sanitary expert and
other specialists. They We're paid for
their work and submitted a report with
detailed drawings and working plans
for the improvement Of streets. parks,
construction Of public buildings and
other requirements of a hrst-elass city.
The result showed that a saving Of
money and a great gain in efficiency
and beauty can be effected by sys-
tematic study by capable men.
improvements once made under such
a system are permanent; they do not
require reconstruction and waste; they
make, in time, a model city. and the
first cost Of the work is less than when
it is hastily conceived and hurriedly
executed.
salt Lake is in the first stages of a
new era Of growth. Pride in the beau y
Of the city's location. its unusual nat
ural advantages as a residence place,
its great historic interest-all these
point the way 20 great possibilities for
the municipality if it's development is
properly directed. Wealthy citizens
are showing their faith in the future
by the construction of handsome resi-
dences with all the accompanying
adornments Of beauty and good taste
in exterior and interior.
The city's streets. its parks, its pub
lie buildings. should all be planned with
a like view to attractiveness and use
fitness. in the wide streets is a prob
lem Of difficulty. but it is possible Of
being turned to advantage. While the
width OF the roadways makes paving
almost probibitory in cost for the whole
width Of the streets, it is still feasible
to pave a driveway on each side of the
street. or in the center. and park the
remainder Of the street. reducing the
cost Of paving and at the same timt
adding to the beauty Of the city and
enhancing the value OF adjacent prop
erty.
This Is only a suggestion. but it in
dicates what might be done with study
and intelligent direction: and The Her
aid hopes that the city authorities vii
consider the advisability Of a definite
thorough study Of the problems befor'
them with q view to systematic con
struction Of public works that shall
make salt Lake city the synonym 70
All that is desirable in a city OF homes
