WILD CITY ExTRAVAaAHcE.

| DECKLESS EXTRAVAGANZA in
N municipal expenditures is not con-
fined to Salt Lake or any other single
city of The country. We find every
where that men elected to city coun-
els are prone to make free with the
public funds We find, too. city Of
fceholders Who are not satisfied with
lust for great wealth, refusing TO be
satisfied with what most men would
call prodigal Iberality in the matter OF
their pay, they beseech their councils
to grant them more and yet more
money.
1t is with extreme regret that we call
attention to the latest instance of this
kind In looking over the well-written
and breezy report Of the proceedings Of
the Payson city council. as published in
our esteemed contemporary, the Globe
Header, we were overcome with poign-
ant dismay at one feature. The Globe
Header says petition was received
from Joseph Worthington, dog tax col
lector, asking that his pay be increased
from SO to 81 per month.
Mr.. Worthington was bold enough to
claim that his salary was not commen-
surate with the duties involved. We
read on, hoping and expecting to find
that the claim of the dog tax collector
was Indignantly rejected. We expected
at least one member of Payson's coun-
eli to rise in his place and denounce
the effort to grab the money of the
taxpayers. Alas. it was not to be. Not
only was his salary raised, on motion
Of Councilman Belts, but he was act
ually given Sc as extra compensation
for work done during the last six
months.
Now if the good citizens of Payson
see Mr. Worthington whizzing around
town in an automobile, if they see him
buying potatoes in half-peck lots. if
they observe that he wears a brand
new bone collar button and full SET. of
gallusses, they will know where he got
the money 10 pay for them. We will
be astonished if this piece of council
manic extravaganza, this adding of 4
total of $12 a year to the burdens of a
long-sufaring people, doesn't result in
changing the political complexion of
Payson at the first possible opportu-
nifty.

RUM ON THE DECLINE.
Once Popular Drink Has Gone Out OF
fashion.

It would be hard to find a more strik-
ing example of the changes of fashion
in regard to drinks than the gradual
disappearance of rum from the list of
supplies necessary 10 the household.
This particular form of strong drink
at one time, and not many years ago
at that. so universally known and so
commonly used that it became a syn
onym for all kinds of hard liquors, is
now scarcely ever heard of, except for
cooking purposes, a few hot drinks and
as the traditional foundation OF
punches. According 10 the testimony
of the dealers in the finer grades of
wines and liquors, there is no demand
whatever for rum of really good quail
ity for use in private houses. There
is practically none of this liquor stored
in the wine cellars of New York, and
only at rare intervals does rum of any
great age or fine quality appear on the
lists at auction sales.
Rum is distilled from molasseS. the
skimmings of the boiling house on
sugar plantations, and the refuse juice
of cane sugar manufacture. In times
past these products were shipped from
the West Indies to New England. and
enormous quantities of the fiery liquor
manufactured there. AS early as 1910
the business was under way in New
England. and in such quantities that in
1856 il is said that rum, rhum, rum
bullion. rumbOOZe. or kill-devil was so
cheap there that a man could get in
toxicated on it at a cost of only a
penny or two. New England rum in
I7f9 was worth about shillings gal
lon, ? pence less than the price OF the
West India brand. When the slave
trade began and cargoes Of rum were
sent to Africa to be exchanged for
slaves, this American product was so
cheap that it soon put an end TO the
trade in French brandy. which was al
first the great medium of exchange in
that business.
In 1914 there were 81, O00, 900 gallons of
rum manufactured in the United
States, when the population of the
country was about 100000 people. AT
that time rum was as common drink
as beer or whisky in these days, and II
continued to hold its own fairly well
until the period of the civil war Since
then other drinks have sUpplanted 1t,
and during recent years the importa-
Mons of rum have shown a steady TALL
ing off. doubly significant in view OF
the rapid increase in population. IN
1897 the importation was 1888 gallons
and III cases, and in 1900 only z2,t2Z
gallons and 765 cases.
These facts apply equally 10 Grea'
Britain, where the use Of rum and the
amount imported have both steadily
declined during recent years KUN was
never so popular on the continent, anu
with its abandonment by the Anglo
/ Saxons its fate as a drink is proDaoly
sealed

INDEPENDENT NEWSPAPERS.

THE EDITOR Of the Logan Ma
ton announces that hereafter his
paper Will be independent. and his rea-
sons for the decision are Of consider
able interest. After reviewing the ca
reer of the paper for five years. during
which it supported the Republican
nominees without fail, and often with
out hope Of financial reward. the Ma
ton says: During that time We have
believed that L was right and proper
for Republicans to support US by their
patronage So far as possible. IN this
it appears we were mistaken. Most Of
the leading Republican politicians Of
this county have constantly proven
that they felt no interest ir their party
paper but preferred to build up the in
stitutions which opposed them polit-
ically rather than TO throw their pat
ronage toward an institution which
worked Tor their personal and their
party's success politically"
The Nation has discovered one of the
peculiarities of most politicians the
world over; they know they can count
on the newspaper which is an Out-and-
out party hack supporting the party
candidates regardless. Of fitness for Of
fee. so they have little respect for it
and less affection. The independent
paper which cannot be influenced by
party patronage either before or after
elections is the one that the politicians
fear and seek to conciliate; its opin-
ions carry more weight, its news is of
more value than the regular organ"
can possibly give its utterances. Even
the most orthodox of party papers
reaches the point where it cannot af-
ford TO support its party ticket
throughout if it has any regard for the
public welfare. and if it has no such
regard its support is not worth having
Nowhere in the country are condi-
tions 50 well adapted to the genuinely
independents newspaper as here in
Utah. While party lines are drawn
where issues are OF national import
ance, party obligation has not been
extended to matters of general policy
involving no great principle.
The people Of Utah are not SO we'd
ded to political organizations that they
must have only one side of great ques-
tons; on the contrary, they demand
and appreciate news service and ed
itorial comment that expresses fairly
all that may be said on either side Of
an issue. The independent newspaper
here finds field ready for it, and as
for the politicians. their support VIII
go to the newspaper that has the peo-
PIE behind it.
The Nation may not have the highest
Of motives for its new policy, but it is
on the right track
