A Timely Suggestion,

Pueblo ChieTtaln.
 Fort Logan would be a better place for holding the army War game next year than is Fort Riley and it is to be hoped that the army officers may be able to see 1t that way. Last year it rained all the ne the soldiers were in Kansas and the same thing happened again this fall As the whole world should know, but does not. Guch a thing as a two week k's downpour of rain could not happen al this time of year in Colorado. Railroad facilities are better in Denver than they are at Fort Riley and 1t would be easier to bring the troops here from the Mis- souri river than it is to take the faI West troops down there. Health and comfort of the men should overweight every other consideration, and the ad- vantage in that is on the side of Fort Logan.

WILL RATIFY TREATY
(Cont1nued from Page one.)

United States has been directly against the treaty of 1S46. The government Of this country guaranteed the peace or the isthmus. Under that treaty the United States had no right to prevent the landing of Colombian troops for she goes there to pacify, to put down an insurrection and to restore peace.
 "The United States has caused all the trouble in Panama. It is she who mas made the Republic of Panama ana she ought not to prevent the landing of our troops. Colombia does not want war; she wants to retake Panama.
 "The canal decision was not brought about by any consideration of money to be paid Colombia. The money was but little thing. The decision of Colompia was brought about on the question or the sovereignty of the United States over the canal strip. The United States wanted full sovereignty and that was the begla- ming of the trouble.
 Tt Is not true that Colombia took near lv all of the revenue from Panama. Co., lombia took only the revenue tax Of the nation. Panama got all the tax or tne State. The motives of the Panama Junta are wrong. They have no rights. From the wear of 1860 to this date, Panama mas been governed by the Liberals and the Conservatives When, under the gov ernment of the Liberals, there were er- TOTS and many scandals. These acts were approved by certain per- sons connected with the Conservatives It is these persons who have approved the revolution and have made separation possible. Colombia is now asking but Jus tice The trouble. however was no. brought about by either Colombias greed or by her taking the revenue from Pan, anna. If matters are left to us, we would have no trouble in putting an end to It, You say that the Panamanians have de- clared that they could put ten thousand men in the field against us. Wel' that is certainly so. The next day we couio w;tbout any trouble put one hundred thousand in the field against them"

CLEAN up THE RUBBISH.

IF SALT LAKE CITY escapes a Sc
riOus fire tomorrow as a result OF
the Independence day celebrations, It
viii have its lucky star to thank, rather
than its respect for the ordinances of
the city. This with special reference 10
the ordinance which forbids accumula-
tons of waste in alleys and out of the
way places in the business district. As
sistant Chief Woods Of the fire depart
ment sounded a timely warning in The
Herald of yesterday.
After the department had finished ex-
tinguishing a blaze in some rubbish in
the rear Of a building on Third South
street Chief Woods was outspoken in
his Indignation. He said, and all Salt
Lakers should agree with him:
1T is criminal carelessness to allow
vacant rooms, easements, air shafts
and the Ike to become filed with waste
and it is our intention 20 prosecute all
such offenders. The Fourth Of July is
Hear at hand and the danger is very
great. A disastrous fire is sure to re-
suit If this carelessness is not abated. -
The Herald wishes the chief all pos
sible success in his prosecutions. A cas-
ual survey of the alleys and back lots
in the down town section is sufficient
10 convince any observer that prosecu-
lions for violation Of the ordinance can
easily be maintained. Packing boxes
filed with excelsior and other infiam-
mable material are piled close to build
ings- Barrels. waste paper. shavings
and the like are stacked in dangerous
proximity to business houses.
Tomorrow the small boy with his fire.
crackers, his Roman candles and other
devices for celebrating will be every
where. The rubbish heaps will be his
special delight. Without any intention
Of doing serious harm he viii take
chances on starting fires that may re
suit disastrOusly to the city. There is
no occasion for this risk, either. II
proprietors Of stores and owners Of
buildings would see that their premises
are free from inhammable rubbish the
danger would be decreased to a mini
mum.
1t is their duty as citizens to keep
their premises clean. Every day they
postpone the cleaning up they are vio-
ating "A city ordinance. The fire chief
has in his power to hale them into
court and subject them to severe pen
hlties and if the assistant chief con-
tinues in his present frame of mind he
is going to give somebody mighty in
teresting time. However. prosecutions
should not be necessary. The warn
Ing given by Mr.. Woods should suffice.

REHABILITATE THE GUARD .

T HE ANNOUNCEMENT that Gov
4 ernor Wells is to begin at once an
investigation into the conditions that
have all but disrupted the National
Guard of Utah viii give satisfaction
to all friends of the states soldiers.
There is no denying the fact that the
guard is in bad shape. The officers
are dissatisfied and the men are dis
satisfied We will not pretend to say.
where the blame lies, but somebody
is seriously at fault, and whoever is
responsible should be weeded out of the
organization.
Time was when the state troops
formed a body OF men of which the
commonwealth might be proud. Well
drilled, sOldierly. alert young fellows.
they always did themselves and the
state credit under every condition.
Lately a change has come over the
guard. Discomfort is everywhere man
ifest. Officers are resigning and it is
becoming difficult TO fiji their places
satisfactorily. Company rosters are
not filled and kept filled and the lack
Of interest is most deplorable.
himself is at fault to some extent. He
must have known for some time that
the guard was going from bad to
worse, but until very recently he has
made no effort to bring about a change.
Now a practical revolution viii be
required before the guard is back on
its old basis of efficiency. The revolu-
ton, If it must come, cannot come too
quickly. A well equipped, well differed,
well drilled national guard is good for
any state.
Titan has always been well to the
front in this regard. 1t cannot afford
to lag now. There is a decided pros
pect that next fall a gathering of state
troops will be held, for instruction pur-
poses, at Cheyenne If Utah is to make
a creditable showing on this occasion
some radical steps will have to be
taken toward clearing out the dis
affected element. The Herald does not
know who composes this element and
it does not care.
1t may be that officers high in the
service are responsible for the chaos.
If so, they should be replaced at once
by men who will do faithfully the work
allotted to them. 1t may be that the
disaffection is confined to men lower in
rank. In this event they should not
be spared. From the governors office
has come the word that a national
guard hOusecleaning is to be the order
Of the day.
Let us hope the word will be made
good by the deed. The Reorganization
has already been permitted to cover too
long a period. The governor should
weed out the dead timber while there
is still time TO save at least a nucleus
for newer, better state military es-
adjustment.
