WORK ON THE ELEVATED
SettiOn Of Wall Which Has Been Com.
pleted Presents Fine appearance

The section OF the retaining wall q
.)the new elevated railroad between
King and French streets has been COM
pleted, aud presents the finest appear
ance OF masonry which may be seen in
this city. All tho derricks and engines
have been taken down and removed to
tho west side of Market street. where
operations are being vigorously car
ried on.
All along Water street the buildings
are being torn down to make room for
the walls and the excavations for the
foundations are being dug.
a new site for the proposed station
which will be erected in this city las
been picked out by those who daily
watch the operations. The wise ones
now say the structure will be between
King and French streets and Water
and Front streets. The houses
along Front between French ana
King are to be torn down and the
foundations for the station laid on Tie
site they now occupy. The fact that
the date stone has been set in this sec
ton Of the wall and that the work has
been so quickly and well finished.
seems to strengthen the idea.
If the railroad company has pur-
chased the property on the north side
OF Front street between French and
King as was reported. the station
might be built there and the plat
forms and train sheds be erected on the
south side of Front street and con-
nected with the main building by an
arched walk. Many opinions are adj
vanced. but the railroad officials say
nothing TO enlighten the public. but
continue TO work hard on the retaining
walls.

NEGROES IN OFFICE.

president ROOSEVELT evil
L IDENTIFY has no hope OF breaking the
political formation of the solid south.
He is about to appoint a negro to the
position of collector of the port Of
Charleston, and he isn't a bit back
ward about informing the indignant
southerners that he's going to appoint
negroes to Office just as often as he
finds they are capable of filling them.
This isn't calculated to cheer the
southern Republicans, who have been
trying to eliminate the negro from pol
it3cs.
There is some justice, too, in what
the president has to say on the sub
ject. II cannot consent to take the
position" ne wrote to one of the men
who protested, that the door of hope,
the door of opportunity is to be shut
upon any good man, no matter how
worthy, purely upon the grounds of
race or color. Such an attempt would,
according to my convictions. be funda-
mentally wrong. If, as you hold, the
great bulk Of the colored people are
not yet fit in point of character and
influence to hold such positions. it
seems to me that it is worth while
putting premium upon the effort among
them to achieve the character and
standing which will fit Them
The unbiased observer must concede
the correctness of the presidents at
titude on this matter. It may seem
not exactly the proper thing to hold
out to the negro the hope that some
day he may occupy a public Office, and
indeed, the president does not hold
out to the mass of the negroes any
such hope. He says simply that when
they prove themselves fit to fill hon
orable and lucrative positions he will
give them the positions.
And in fitting themselves to hold
public Office the negroes must neces-
sarily fit themselves to hold places in
private life far higher than those they
now occupy. After all, too, the south
erners, who protest so strenuously
against what they call negro domina-
ton, need have no fear that their
rights as citizens will be jeopardized.
The appointment of a negro to Of
flee does not involve social recognition.
1t is possible to do business with a
man without making a social equal Of
him. That is done every day every
where in the United States. The Her
aid does not pretend to a belief in
negro equality, but it does believe the
race should be encouraged to better
itself in all legitimate directions.

THE DOMESTIC PROBLEM.

THE LONG LIST of advertisements
in the daily papers for girls to
cook and do general homework, and
the scarcity of such help in Salt Lake
just now, gives added interest to
paper on this subject by Mary E.
TruebIood in the New York Independ-
ent. Miss Trueblood has just COM
pleted an investigation into the en-
pigments of women for the Massa-
chusetts state bureau of labor. Con-
ditions there seem much the same as
in Utah.
1t is hard to attract intelligent young
women into homework in spite of the
many confessed advantages of that
character of employment. Girls go
into department stores, restaurants,
shops, factories and mills, where they
earn barely enough to enable them to
live decently, in preference to working
in homes, where it would be possible
to save some money every week. Miss
Trueblood discussed the question with
many young women, and their objec-
tons to homework are summarized as
follows:
1.-The hours are long and indefinite.
There is invariably Sunday work. Work
is not often specialized. Each house
hold has its own method of doing
things. There is no chance to rise to
better place. There is little oppor-
tunity to visit friends and small sat
isfaction in receiving them. The rela-
lions with employers seem more ir
ritating than in other occupations.
There is a solitude which is a result
Of continual contact with people with
whom they have nothing III common.
In the opinion of working girls, the
advantages do not weigh against the
disadvantages, so that under existing
circumstances any attempt to attract
intelligent girls to homework must be
futile"
That surely is a formidable array Of
objections. The lot of the average
hired girl is not pleasant. She is COM
PEELED to do all sorts of household
drudgery at all hours of the day, and
has little time that she, can honestly
call her own. Still, that is all not so
much the fault of the system as of the
workers themselves. If they could be
persuaded TO put into their work a lit
tie more of the desirable quality known
as ginger" they would be better off
and their households would be hap
pier.
Plenty of women in Utah raise large
families Of children and do all of their
own work at the same time. The hired
girl is not often encountered with the
care of the children of the family and
in nine cases out of ten she could do
her work in half the time if she
brought sufficient energy into play. The
girl who is intelligent and competent
doesn't have such hard time as the
incompetent sisters would have US be-
lieve.

Up to date. Apostle Smoot has not
withdrawn from the senatorial race be-
cause of the Ministerial alliance fight
on him. Doubtless some of the min
listers regard this as somewhat remark
able.
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1902-11-29
T. KEARHs, HUMoRIsT,

A POSTLE SMOOT VIII be panied and
Il surprised 20 read the authoritative
announcement from Senator Kearns in
Washington that he Kearns) is not
supporting any man for the senatorship
from Utah. And If that is not enough
to make Smoot sit up and take notice.
he can cogitate on the further decIara-
ton from Washington that the apostle
has rivals in the race.
List to the words the senator spake to
a guileless newspaper man who met him
guileless newspaper man who met him
upon his arrival in Washington and
wanted to know a few things about the
Utah senatorial situation. Is everybody
listening? Then here goes:
Il am unable to tell you." said the
senator in response to an inquiry. as to
the identity Of Utah's next senator.
There are several candidates. but I
have no idea as to the outcome, and it
is a contest in which am only a spec
tator. for have no Intention of taking
sides with any of the aspirants."
If that brief speech isn't calculated to
add 70 the gayety of those familiar with
the Utah situation then The Herald be-
heyes nothing can add 10 their gayety.
There are several candidates" saws
the senator. There is a dark secret he
has carefully concealed within his own
broad bosom. 1t wasn't fair for SEN
ator Kearus to go back to Washington
without telling us who those other
candidates are.
Here we have been laboring under
the impression that Apostle Reed
Smoot of Provo was the only candi-
date in the race; we have been led to
believe that large majority of the Re-
publican members-elect for the Iegis-
iature would vote for him in caucus
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1902-11-29

and that all Of them viii support the
are Senator Kearns' other candidates.
Is Senator Hanna Of Ohio one Of
them? Is Senator Clark of Wyoming,
the other deputy senator of Utah, an
other? The Herald has heard no au-
nouncement from any Utah man ex-
cept Apostle Smoot. so the candidates
to whom Senator Kearns refers must
be citizens he has met since he went 10
Washington.
There is humor, too. in the SEN
ator's statement that he has no inten-
ton Of taking sides with any of the
aspirants. There is no necessity for
Senator Kearns TO take sides. The race
is all over but the shouting.

TROLLEY CAR OVERTURNED.
1t Was Crowded with Passengers and
Three Were Badly Injured.

NEW YORK, Dec. 2o.-Three. women
were perhaps fatally injured and fifty
seven other passengers. mostly women
were badly shaken up in a trolley car
accident in Weehawken at midnight. The
accident occurred at point where the
trolley tracks cross the Erie Railroad
The motorman stopped his car to allow
a freight to pass. The train was moving
along rapidly and the last three cars had
broken loose some distance east of the
crossing, and were not noticed by the
train crew. When six cars had passed the
motorman of the trolley car thought the
entire train had passed and started to
cross the tracks. When he got in the mid
die of the crossing the three freight cars,
which had broken loose from the train,
came rolling along and struck the trolley
with terrific force. The trolley car was
completely turned over and the passengers
thrown through the windows, up against
the doors, and on top of one another. They
were struck in the face with broken tim
bers glass and everything else movable.
The three most seriously hurt were taken
out unconscious and the physicians direct
ed their attention toward reviving them.
The injured women were removed TO their
homes.
