shown the absolute necessity of imme-
 diate telegraph communications with
 this part of the United States. and it
 would be many months after the date
 for which the Manila cable is now con-
 tracted for before the government could
 arrange to complete the work. Strong
 pressure is being brought to bear bv
 the Pacific coast delegation in congress for the government to facilitate tho transaction of business between san Francisco and countries lying to the west. A direct line of steamers has just been put on from san Francisco to Manila through the efforts of the com meroial bodies of San Francisco. and there is an urgent demand for a cable at the earliest possible date. regardless of who is to build, own or operate it. A fight will be made against the CorIiss bill for government cable. and if no Legislation results it will serve the pur- pose Of those who are proceeding with the construction of private wire. This may be the Outc0mepin their situation.

is mistaken. The Aiackay- Bennett peo- pie take the position that the law of 1866 gives them all the rights needed in the premises to construct. operate and land a cable upon American shores All they hope to do Is to prevent any legislation whatever. that being the outcome most satisfactory to them. They state that their contract calls for a cable to be in operation from San Francisco to Hawaii by November l. and they agree to have the cable in operation to Manila within two years from that date. The proposed rates on the Mackay cable are 50 cents Q word to Hawaii until the Philippine end is laid. then the rates to be S1 a word to Manila and thirty-five cents a word to Hawaii. The present rate to Mauil@ is $2.35 a word.
 The contention of the cable company against a government cable is that the foreign cable companies will not ex- change with the government office and will send all their business by the west e-n routes. whereas if the Philippine cable is owned by a private company all the teiegraDhic business of the orient will cross the Pacific on the American wire. thus making it possible for the cable to earn dividends for its owners. IhGy estimate the cost or maintenance at $15.O0O a year, with a local business out of Manila of abou. 70. coo words They say that. allowing for an increase of 4Oo. GOO words. il means that the 50 cents a word rate proposed by the government gives an income of $20o.0cO. as against an annual expense account of a million and half.
 The Mackay people claim that. wit. the exception of N1r. Ward, the vice president of the Postal, their organiza- ton is composed entirely of American citizens; that the government business will be carried over through cable at such rates as the postmaster general may determine; that the government shall have the right to purchase ths cable by appraisement at any time after it's construction. and that any time the necessity may arise the gov ernment can send it's own officers and telegraph operators into the cable sta tions and take charge of the cable.
 Cable experts express some doubt as to the ease with which cable can be laid from Hawaii to the Philippines No cable has ever been laid over such tremendous depths Of water for such a distance. and they say that many mis- haps are possible during the period or construction and operation whereby transmission would be interrupted fo. long periods while the cable was being tied together after being broken by the enormous strain to which it will be subjected.
 It Is too early yet to say what the outcome will be in congress. but a great many believe that when the Pacific cable is laid it will be as a private en- terprise and not by the government. One reason for this belief is that allow ing a private company to build q cable does away with the necessity for any appropriation. thus leaving more money for other projects and reducing the total budget by considerable amount. Recent developments in Hawaii have

THE CITY OF MURRAY.

M URRAY HAS A RIGHT to be as
WI tickled as a boy with his first
pair of red-topped boots, a girl with
her first long dress, or papa of the
newest brand. The election which was
to determine whether Murray should
become an incorporated city or con-
tinue a somewhat somnolent existence
as village, resulted in a victory for
the progressive element of its citizen
on the outcome.
We hope the newest of Utah cities
viii have an abundant measure of
prosperity. There is no reason, either,
why Murray should not prosper. 1t
starts with a very considerable popu-
lation, and it is growing ali the time.
During the last year or two an i'm
Inense deal of building has been go
ing on, and still the demand for dwell
ings and for business houses remains
unsatisfied.
Critics have said that Murray can
never be very big because of its close
proximity to Salt Lake, but there is
nothing on which to base such prop
osition. Brooklyn grew into metrop-
oils within a stones throw of New
York city, and evidences of that kind
could be multiplied. The thing that
contributes most to the material and
moral well being of a city is the spirit
of its citizens.
The Herald likes to see a man proud
of his own town. It likes the man
who, though others may look upon his
city as the most unattraetive place on
earth. nevertheless praises it in season
and out of season. With a proper
amount of work and a proper show
of civic pride. Murray cannot be held
back. The day may come when it viii
conclude to annex Salt Lake. Who
knows?
Until then, The Herald hopes the
most cordial feelings viii exist between
the two cities. Certainly Salt Lake
has a high regard for Murray, and
every Salt Laker viii wish for that
thriving little metropolis smooth sail
ing and prosperous voyage over the
civic sea.

HARpsHIPs OF THE Law.


ONE OF THE INJUSTICES which
" are sometimes permitted by the
law forbidding the importation OF
Iaborers or other workers under con-
tract, has just come to light. A short
time ago a large body of italian emf
grants arrived at the port of New York.
All were admitted except one youth.
He was detained and will be sent back
to his native land
The reason for this youths impending
deportation lies in the fact that he had
letter from his brother in New Or
leans in which the brother said he
thought he would be able TO find work
there for the newcomer. This was in
terpreted by the astute immigration
officials as a violation OF the contract
labor law. This Interpretation is, per-
haps, technically correct, but most of
us are willing to admit that it works
hardship on a young man who may
have within him all the requisites for
good citizenship.
It is easy enough to reduce the ques-
ton to an absurdity. If this Italian
had declared his intention of loafng
instead of working, if he had said he
didn't know whether he would ever
work or not and that he didn't care,
the chances are that he would have
passed. 1t is difficult to believe that
the trainers of the law intended il to
apply to such cases. It's object, as
most people understand the measure,
was TO prevent the importation of
large bodies of undesirable foreigners
to supplant American workers in coal
mines, on railway construction and IN
other places where men are used in
considerable numbers.
Such purpose was and is admirable
The American workingman is entitled
to this measure of protection, but if the
truth must be told he isn't getting it.
Means have been found by which the
law can be evaded and the result is
that thousands of foreigners who will
never be good citizens are today at
work on the railroad grades of the
country, in the coal mines and else
where.
1t is probable that the immigration
laws will be amended in this and other
particulars during the coming session
Of congress. A great demand for such
reform has been inaugurated end
congress will hardly ignore it. Immi-
grafton officials should not be given too
much latitude. but they should be al
lowed some and this, with more strin-
gent educational qualifications, will
doubtless have the effect of excluding
from American shores the people v no
are not wanted. as well as of admitting
cans.

MRS. DoxHEIMER's YARN.

THE SENSATIONAL STORY told by
L one Mrs. Doxheimer regarding an
alleged anarchist plot against the life
of President Roosevelt viii hardly be
taken seriously. The woman seems to
be suffering from some form of religi-
Gus dementia and it is altogether likely
that she has imagined the entire tale.
Undoubtedly. there are anarchists in
the United States who would not hest
tate to take the life of the president if
offered a favorable opportunity, but
they are not taking such excitable
women as Mrs. Doxheimer into their
confidence.
There is reason, too. to hope that the
wilder phases of anarchy are being
toned down. Only a few days ago
Emma Goldman, who was accused of
completely in the assassination of Pres
ident Mckinley, and who was subse-
quently released without being tried,
made a speech to 500 anarchists. in a
Chicago hall. She was very temperate
in her remarks for she said nothing in
advocacy of violence unless a mild
attack on the police could be so con-
strued.
The Doxheimer story may serve one
good purpose, however. 1t may help
US to remember that there are an
archists here who should be watched
closely. The Herald would not advo-
cate the establishment of a special
body of troops to guard the president,
but it does believe every precaution
calculated to insure his personal safety
should be taken. The life of the chief
executive is of no more value to him
individually than is the life of the ordi-
nary citizen to that scitizen; but the
life of the president is more valuable to
the nation than the life of the private
individual and it should be guarded
accordingly.

"TREAsuREs OF THE SNOW"

YES. IT WAS A BAD, sloppy, murky
L sort of day yesterday, but no citi-
zen OF Utah who believes in the great
ness Of his state and who has faith in
the future of the commonwealth, Of
fered one word of complaint 1t vas
a pleasant sight to see men and women
go sloshing through the icy slush. their
garment damp, their feet wet, but with
faces as radiant as the earth when the
first rays of the morning sun kiss the
dew drops on the flowers.
Nature was busy making a great
deposit in her mountain banks, de-
posit that the thirsty earth and the
thirsty mortals in this land will CRATE
fully draw upon next summer. Poor
old Job forgot his troubles long enough
once to talk about 1.-The treasures Of
the snow" There's a good deal in that
expression. Who can measure 'the
treasurers of the snow''2 To Utah the
Storm of yesterday and last night was
assif a shower of gold had fallen from
some terrestrial mint.
Great is the snow AS Isaiah said, it
cometh down from heaven and re-
turneth not hither, but watereth the
earth and makerh it TO bring forth and
bud, that it may give seed TO the sower
and bread to the eater" That's what
the snow is going to do for Utah. The
mountains are white with it, their
crests rising grandly pure above the
valley. OF every peak it might be
written, as Lord Byron wrote of Mont
Blanc:
''They crowned him long ago
On throne of rocks, in a robe of CLOUDS.
With a diadem of snow
In ali ages and all times poets have
sung of the beauties of snow, of its
purity, of the simple splendor in which
it robes the earth. But the material
feature of the snowstorm is nowhere
so well understood or so highly appre-
ciated as in the west. The aesthetic
side is not lost sight of. but we cannot
be blamed if we see dollars as well as
beauties in the swirling fakes.
1t is a well established fact that the
snow which falls before the first of
January is always the most valuable.
1t Sits into the canyon washes, packs
itself into the underground and banks
itself behind the ridges. freezing there
the water courses in sparkling fluid.
Shows that fall during and after jan
uary rarely pack and freeze because the
warm weather comes on before it has
opportunity to do so.
If we could have three or four SHOWS
such as that of the last twenty-fo1r
hours. there would be no water prob
lem in Salt Lake next summer. On the
contrary, there would be water enough
and to spare for all purposes. How
ever, the prospects for plenty OF water
next summer should cause no abate-
ment in the efforts to secure for Salt
Lake q permanent and stable source
of supply.
The city is expanding rapidly IN
every direction and as it expands the
demand for water becomes more press
ing. The committee of citizens that is
investigating the question viii, we
hope arrive at some satisfactory con-
clusion. The city cannot afford to de-
pend entirely on the snowfall, for a sue
cession of dry winters is possible at all
times with a resultant famine, which
would cause great suffering.
