delayed Letter. -Strasburg. Jan. Eve
have seen the wonderful clock OF strasburg
and the watch on the Rhine. We found that
tnls joke, dating 1872 in America, has lust
peen made in Germany At least 1T has
that label on it in the guide book writer
in the Fliegende Blabber says to his aunt:
Aunt, have you the clock at Strasburg seen
already yet gehabt haben worden sein?"
And the lady replies:
Itch habe not only the clock already seen.
aoer have | also the watch am Rhine gesenen
gehabt haben, NIGHT vehr'
The guide book takes this ponderous effort
aboard with much JOY.
But the clock is certainly wonder When
the hour strikes, the twelve apostles come and
remark "Gesundheit" Judas is seen in the
background With a hammer. AS the quarter
strikes, the rooster on the top of the clock
crows Justify and proceeds to pick up grain
of corn and eat 1t himself after calling the
hens. At the half hour. Charlemagne comes
out ana does his stunt, standing his hands
and winking rapidly at the audience AT
the three quarters, the sexton of the church
goes out and takes his beer. He has not
missed it for twenty two years.
Marks of the Franco-Prussan war are seen
everywhere. A steel shell weighing at least
1000 pounds stopped in it's flight over the
church was found accurately balanced on the
top of the spire. A heavy wind will rock it,
but it has not fallen yet and no one dares to
climb the steeple to dislodge it. Here Napo-
! leon the Little made his first stand agalns
the German invaders. It is reported now tina
! these latter did not know that he was doing
this and never discovered it until they read
| it in the history of the war.
| Strasburg is wonderful city. 1t contains
| considerable architecture of the period Of
1900 or 1900 A. D., and several smells of about
| the same date The people live in houses
and eat food and seem quite comfortable ani
happy We were much surprised to detec
a civilization fully equal to that ofathe United
| States, but we long to see the old flag fyins
above and to feel that congress is care
| fully doing nothing at Washington. Trusting
that you are all we'll and happy, lovingly
| Lucille, Mary L. and Margaret.

Your Biography for 500.


Jan. PA lot of rich men have been ap-
preached lately by man processing to repre-
sent Town Topics. He has presented a card
from E. d. Mann of that publication and has
opened up to them a great scheme, namely,
an edition de luxe of the lone Hundred and
Fifty First Families of the United States
Cost? Why, only $1,000 a copy. This propo-
sition included a contract under which Town
Topics was to see to it that everything was
to be published just SO about the man who
put up the bagatelle of $500. He could even
write it himself if he wished to do So 1t
was to be very complete, going into even such
details as pictures of the townhouse and of
the country house Of the fteen-hundred-dol-
larer.
One man, worth a goodly number of mill
lions, to whom this ernissary said yes
terday that he had declined the proposition
looking toward his immortaization, but that
before he had done SO he had been permitted
to see the contracts and the list of subscrib-
ers. On the list were the signatures of Levi
P. Morton, Andrew Carnegie, Daniel O'Day
of the Standard Oil company, and other men
of money. These signatures We're genuine
enough for he recognized them.
81 did not care to be handed down to fame
in just this way" said this millionaire, "but
told the man that would subscribe for a
COPY of the book and asked him how much.
Fifteen hundred dollars was the reply. That
ended it with me, and the man left"
Mr. Morton said that he had not been asked
to subscribe 81, 500 Not long ago, he said, a
former member OF the Stock Exchange had
asked him for an account of his life, which
was to be published in a history of the noted
men of Wall street. That was the only biog-
raphy he had contributed to, Mr. Morton said.

the entire community, argues an ego tiSm that is not crediIable. In word the taxpayers of the Salt River valley have the right to determine for them selves what they want-they have d right to have submitted to them q proposition which so closely affects their welfare as the question of taxa tion for water storage. It is not that they are objecting to the plan of county ownership. What they object to is the assumption of any man or little coterie of men that the public has not suffi- cient intelligence to protect the public interests. Nobody yet has been ap- pointed guardian or conservator of the people of the Salt River valley, and there is not likely to be an appointment of that kind for some time to come.
 The storage commissioners by their action yesterday manifested a proper appreciation of their duties as servants of the public.

There is little disposition locally to

There is little disposition locally to harshly criticise MT. Trott for failing
 to insist to the last TWO KINDS upon the amendments OF to the water storage en- PUBLIC abling act which he was SERVANTS. sent to Washington to
 obtain in compliance with the demands of the valley as eX- pressed through the mass meeting, the board of trade and the storage com- mission, for his good faith is not doubted, and it is recognized that in his anxiety to see the bill pass in some form he was led to approve the position of the stubborn and selfish men with whom he had to contend-men whose position enabled them to throttle the bill, apparently, and who were ready to defy the wishes of the entire valley rather than consent to the amendments proposed. But MT. Trott should have stood steadfast, and the storage com mission yesterday acted wisely in in
 
 fore have been agreed upon. Upon receipt Of these last instructions, MT. Trott will doubtless refuse to accede to a hold-up by M-. Heard. Tine proper course for him to pursue is to work to the best of his ability for the passage of the bill with the amend ments, and let MT. Heard take the re- sponsibility of defeating the measure.
 The elimina tion of the ''two-thirds' clause and the alternative amendment permitting the county to vote bonds in aid of a cooperative company made up of the water consumers in case the proposition for county ownership is de- feated at the polls, are safeguards which cannot possibly weaken the bill, or work to the disadvantage of the county ownership plan. As often stated. neither proposition will be voted upon until the citizens are in complete possession of all the facts and circum- stances connected with either plan, and bonds will be voted for neither if there be serious defects apparent. It is quite possible, and even probable, that county ownership would carry, but Il might not; and with a law permitting of only one proposition. the hands of the people would be tied until sub sequent congress could be induced to pass another bill. It is the practically unanimous judgment of the valley, therefore, that the bill should be broad enough to permit of the settlement of the question finally without again ap- pealing to congress.
 Mr. Heard in refusing to listen to the wishes Of the people whom he purports to represent, places himself in an inde- fensible attitude, but one entirely char acteristic of him. The most repre- sentative mass meeting in the history of the valley, and subsequently the board of trade and the water storage commission-with the exception of Heard-demanded that the bill be amended. For him or other individuals to assume that they know more than
