NEW YORK AMERICANS.
President Gordon Says Team Will Be
Almost the Same as Last Season.

The New York American League base ball
team will be the same next season as last
year with the exception of about two play
ers. President Gordon of the club is the
authority for this statement. Gordon had
intended not to make public any statement
relative to base ball matters at SO early
Gate, but as rumars were being circulated
throughout the country about the teams
players he feels he ought to set at rest all
this talk.
In speaking OF the makeup of the High
landers for next year Mr.. Gordon had this
to say: a
I'm the first place, we are not after
George Davis and would not think of trad
ing Conroy for him, as has been mentioned.
Nor do we intend to play Anderson at first
base. The infield of the Highanders next
season will be Gatlzel, Williams, Elberfeld
and Conroy, and keeler Fultz and Ander-
son will make up the outfield
we think we are very strong in the box
and all we need now is one more first-class
catcher with experience. Then the team

are looking to him for success.
The short right field fence will be remov-

PREVENTION OF CRIME.

4 RECENT REPORT Of Chief Of PO-
4 lice Mcdowell of Youngstown o.,
published in the Municipal Journal
and Engineer. contains some unusual
~ sound statements and striking
thoughts Chief Mcdowell discusses
crime and criminals in all their mani
Gold phases. but he pays particular at
.ention to the causes for. crime and the
remedies. After pointing out the ne
cessity of segregating youthful offend
srs from hardened criminals, he
goes on:
THE fundamental cause of crime lies
in the early training, association ana
education. This is true, even in the
c4imes of passion. The character is
moulded in youth. Natural tendencies
may be restrained, if not eliminated,
by early and proper training and care.
Association or contact with criminals
should be avoided. a dormant strain
Of criminality is often aroused into be
ing by the wen told story Of some
thief.
Youth is initiative and strives to
emulate others. A lack Of education
is often an Incentive to crime. Crime
decreases as education increases and
is rare among great brain workers. A
desire to live beyond ones means, pow
erty. Jealousy, hatred cards, women
and wine make many criminals. Every
desire. every passion, every inclination
and every misfortune of humanity has
made its criminals.
.sThe remedy. for crime is not easy
10 find. A more careful rearing of the
Young would do much for the future
To the police officer. however. the rem
edv lies in the means provided by the
law. His duty is to prevent and de-
tect. He has not control Of ali the
means Of prevention, but there are
some that ne can command. The best
way TO do it is to study the ways Of
criminals and keep track of them.
Their haunts must be watched
and noted. Known thieves must not
be permitted TO reside in the city.
Those who harbor them must be
cEushed r1thlessiy. A police officer has
a duty even before a crime has been
committed.
Here in salt Lake we have had less
crime recently than we had few
months ago. but the criminals have NOT
all been driven out Of the city by any
means. There is at least one notorious
house OF. Commercial street that is a

NO SYMPATHY FOR GERMANY.

THE MERCHANTS and manufactur-
ers of Germany will receive no
sympathy from this country in the row
they are making because Of the opera
ton of a new statute which is caIcu-
lated to prevent the Importation Of
aduIterated products into the United
States. This law goes into effect on the
first day of next month and it is very
stringent, indeed. It provides that
The secretary Of the treasury shall
refuse delivery to the consignee of any
such goods which the secretary of ag-
riculture reports to him have been in
spected and analysed and found to be
dangerous to health, or which are for
hidden to be sold or restricted in sale
in the countries in which they are
made or from which they are exported,
or which shah be falsely labeled in any
respect in regard to the place of man
ufacture or the contents Of the pack
age"
Tt is difficult to see why Germany
should be more excited about the new
law than any other country except on
the theory that the Germans have been
sending US a lot of adulterated prod
ucts. The measure was not aimed par
ticuiarly at Germany. although it is
true that Germany has been sending
over to the United States thousands of
pounds of Fraukfurter sausage contain
ing borax. The fact that Germany has
excluded American meats preserved
with borax has nothing to do with the
case except that we find it hard to re
strain a smile at the wry face with
which Germany is preparing to take
her medicine.
If Germany is Disseminated against,
so are England. France Italy and other
nations. We are told that France
sends over immense quantities of aduI-
terated wine. as we'll as wine made in
this country. shipped over there and
then sent back under French labels
England sends us at high prices miser-
able limitations of jams and jellies and
Italy furnishes limitations Of olive oil
and other things.
Just why the law which takes effect
next month was not put on the statute
books before is a mystery. Nearly every
state in the Union mas pure food laws
which protect the public to a measur-
able extent, at least, from impostures,
harmless and otherwise. Yet foreign
ers have been allowed to send adulter-
ated products here without restriction
The law is thoroughly good. 1t should
be vigorously enforced

AN IRRIGATION QUARREL.

A RIZONA IS NOT LIKELY to profit
A much by the operation Of the ma
tional irrigation act until her people
get through quarreling about the loca-
ton of the first government reservoir
Some months ago government experts
visited the san Carlos district in Ari-
iona and, after a thorough inspection,
pronounced 1t an admirable site for
great irrigation work. They were
shown thousands Of acres of land TO
be brought under cultivation, and when
they went away they left the impress
sion that the san Carlos site would De
recommended
Then the experts went into the Salt
River valley country There they
found that the same admirable condi-
items existed. At least they so report
ed, and, greatly to the disgust of the
san Carlos. people, a Salt River valley
site was chosen for the commencement
o. government irrigation operations.
OF course San Carlos is Indignant Its
people are now busny engaged in dis
creditins Salt River valley, and it IS
entirely prObablc that they VIII be able
TO block the work there
1t is unnecessary to go into the ar
Euments used against Salt River Suf-
icient is it to say that intimations- are
made that political influences were
used to make the experts change their
minds: that the government irrigation
fund is being put into the hands OF
sharpers whose object is to enrich
themselves at the expense of worthy
people. In other words, so far as Ari-
IONA is concerned. the very thing thai
opponents Of irrigation in congress pro
fessed to fear may possibly become a
fact.
The Herald viii not make any pre-
tense of deciding the Arizona dispute.
we do not know enough about the mer-
its of the controversy for that but we
do know that quarrels of this charac-
ter cannot fail to bring discredIt upon
the whole scheme of national irriga-
tton. In the war of words between the
disputants the public is apt TO forget
that the government is making no Out
right donation TO irrigation. On the
contrary, people who rush to conciu-
sions will imagine that money is TO
be poured out OF the national treasury
into the laps of western states without
any return whatever.
This is not true, of course, but the
misunderstanding is easy. Let US hope
that no bitterness viii arise in Utah,
no matter what the government experts
decide TO CO. Their decision Will not
be satisfactory 10 everybody. but if it
IS satisfactory TO the greatest possible
number. the disgTuntled ones should
swallow their Indignation with the best
grace they can muster and await n
more favorable opportunity for pre-
senting their claims.
The west, as the west, is too deeply
interested in national irrigation TO
countenance any quarreling whatever,
no matter how great the injustice done
may seem. And, in the end, no un-
bearable injustice viii be done, for il
Is difficult to make one section of a
state or community prosperous without
making other sections prosperous also.

COURAGE OF GOVERNOR WHITE.

= ONERNOR A. B. WHITE Of West
" Virginia is man of such sturdy
character that those who know him
may wen feel honOred by the acquaint-
ance.- The governor spoke a few days
ago at a banquet in Parkersburg in
honor of the West Virginia Bankers
association. During the course of his
remarks he referred facetiOusly TO the
fact that the bankers had sent a com
mittee to the legislature to. lobby
against the. passage of the tax commits
sion's report. in which was a recon-
mendation that the banks be required
TO pay their proportion of the taxes
His reference to the subject brought
out a round of Kisses. Then the gov
ernor really warmed up He fatty said
that the bankers of West Virginia were
tax dodgers because their organization
had always opposed the payment Of a
fair tax on banks. Again the executive
was Missed, this time more fercely than
before. But he stood his ground and
grew hotter all the time
Il now propose TO speak plain Anglo
Saxon" he said. Il am a director in
several banks but not one of them, so
far as know. pays the amount Of taxes
it should pay under the statutes. 1 see
no reason why banks, which are al
most invariably wealthy corporations,
should seek 10 avoid bearing their Just
proportion of the tax burdens"
Once more Governor White was
Kissed but. as he had finished his talk,
he didn't mind. and soon after he left
the banquet hall There may. be soma
discussion as TO the propriety of bring
ing up the tax question, even facetious-
", by the governor. but there can be no
discussion relative to the improperly
of banqUeJers kissing their guest.
Governor White had not asked for the
privilege of speaking to the bankers. On
the contrary, they had invited him to
be present and make a speech.
He was as much their guest as if he
had been in the home of any one of
them. Their bad taste in Kissing por-
tions of his speech cannot be too strong
~ condemned. And if the governor
was guilty of badstaste in bringing up
the tax question he was extremely cOur-
ageous in continuing it. He told the
bankers to their faces some exceedingly
plain truths that they never expected
10 hear, and if the bankers of West
Virginia are like most bankers on the
subject of taxes they can't be told the
same truths any too often.
