The harpings of Democratic newspapers con-
corning trusts is tersely and ittingly answered
by the writer who said I'VE hear great deal
about trusts these days and they are depicted
as monsters who are trying to own the whole
earth and to shove everybody else off into
space. The very fact and truth OF the matter
Is that the hoy instincts in all human beings
will show whenever time, place and circum-
stances are favorable. There are big trusts
and little trusts and every mothers son of us
would do the same as the Others do II good
chance came. The cure for the evil has been
prescribed long ago by the lowly Nazarene, who
said do unto Others, ETC., but those who take
the prescription are so few that they are not
observable. And the human hog still multi
plies It's species"

DO you know in just what municipal ward
you now live? You will call to mind that the
city was redistricted two or three months ago,
and unless you have investigated the matter
and know, you may find that you are In differ

you in the matter of voting and as the prima-
ries and election are not so very far way, 1t
Are you interested in your primaries; are you
casting about for the best man to represent you
In the next counciY While there is time
enough yet, don't neglect 1t long enough for
"the other fellow" to "pack" the primary and
shut you out of your rightfu say. The

II the Supreme Court doesn't mind its bust
ness little better it Is likely to get very
favorable reputation among the people of this
state. That bunch decided a few days ago
that Nick HawOrth murderer was not en-
the minds of the people; just a week or so ago
1t rendered decision in regard to an election
case, and the people Of Northern Utah, gener-
ally, believe 1t was right; now the court comes
forward and says Peter MOrtensen is not en-
titled to a new trial, and there are hardly n
dozen people In the state who have not hoped
for such decision. The Supreme Court seems
awfully slow sometimes, but II hits the right
spot when II does speak.

The report of the State Board Of Health that
Utah Is at this time freer from contagious dis
ease than ever before must bring great salts
faction wherever the report Is read. This con-
ditiOn Is due In great measure to the vigil
ance OF health officers over the state, and they
are to be commended for their earnestness and
zeal in the matter of quarantining, and en-.
forcing such other regulations as are deemed
efficient In keeping contagious diseases in
check. The State Board in its report sug-
gests that as the season Is now coming on when
typhoid fever Is the disease to be most dreaded
1t would be best to give special attention to
the water used for domestic purposes. Where
there Is the least doubt as to its purity the
water should be boiled. San ounce of pre-
vent+On Is worth pound Of cure" you know,
and 1t would be much better If all will give at
tention to these little details as suggested by
the State Board.

The local democratic organs references to
timely Mr. Burris Is probably not the best
thing that ever blew down the pike, but will
compare favorably in any and every respect with
any of those on the Journal staff who seek TO
hold him up to ridicule. In attempting to
cast reflections upon the city council through
Mr.. Burris, the assenine imbecility Of the "only
newspaper in Cache county" is little short of
sublime In its perfection. The city council has
secured the services of Attorney W. w.
Vaughan, temporarily at least, and even
though this had not been done, E. J. Robinson,
president of the council, is graduate in law
and this spring was admitted to the Utah bar.
The local organ of destruction would be glad
to know that the city would necessarily have
to rely on Mr.. Burris for legal advice but at
this time the ''ony" is barking up the wrong
tree

Passing of the Shakers.

The "Millennial church," popularity
known as Shakers" is passing away
1t began with the ministrations of
Ann Lee, whom the Shakers COM
memorate as the Mother of Saints"
In 1885 they built their first family
home in America, an to this
they added not very long after, 10.
They are without sacraments or priest
hood, except that they have an elder
ship composed of both men and wo-
men, and rites in which they dance as
did the ancient people In their be-
lief they are mystic and spiritualistic.
They have recruited their ranks sole
ly by accessions from the world,
neither marrying nor rearing children,
and they have acquired wealth by
honest labor alone. A third of a CEN
fury ago they numbered 5000; now
they are estimated as barely exceed
ing 1000.

UnseemIy knowledge.

! The social law against talking
shop is an indication of the very
| widespread opinion that the exhibition
of unmitigated knowledge is unseemly,
outside of business hours. When we
meet for pleasure we prefer that it
! should be on the hun. anizing ground
OF not knowing. Nothing is so fatal
to conversation as an authoritative
utterance. When a man who is cap
abale of giving it enters.
"All talk dies as in a grove all song
Beneath the shadow of bird of prey
Conversation about the weather would
, lose all its easy charm in the presence
Of the chief of the weather bureau.
1t is possible that the fear of exhib-
iting unusual information in a mixed
company may be a survival of primi-
tive conditions. Just as the domesti-
Gated dog will turn around on the rug
before lying down, for hereditary rea-
sons which | do not remember so il
is with civilized man. Once ignorance
was universal and enforced by penal
ties. In the progress of the race the
environment has been modified, but
so strong is the influence of hereditary
that The Man who Knows no sooner
enters the drawingroom than he IL
seized by guilty fears. His ancestors
for having exhibited a moiety of his
intelligence were executed as wizards.
But perhaps the ordinary working of
natural selection may account for the
! facts. The law of the survival of the
fittest admits of no exceptions, and
the fittest to- give us pleasure in con.
versation is the sympathetic person
who appears to know very little more
than We dos. M. Crothers in AT

Will Lettuce Prevent Smallpox.

Lettuce is an absolute preventive
of smallpox. No one is in the least
particle Of danger of catching small
pox who eats a little lettuce every
day.
Smallpox belongs to the scorbutic
class of diseases. Sailors at sea, de-
prived of fresh vegetables, gev
scurvy. Scurvy is a typical scorhutic
disease. Smallpox is another Small
pox always RACES during the winter
season, when the poor people are de-
prived Of fresh vegetable foods.
Celery and onions are good for this
purpose, but there is such a long in
terval between their being gathered
and being eaten that they lose most
of their anti-scorbutic properties.
Lettuce is served shortly after it is
picked and hence contains the valu-
able properties which will prevent
smallpox.
We say without the least hesitation
or reserve that lettuce will prevent
smallpox. 1t is a thousand times bet
ter than vaccination, to produce
other diseases. We are willing to
stake our professional reputation on
the broad statement that any one
who eats lettuce daily will not catch
smallpox, whether he be vaccinated
or not.-Medical Talk.

Young Mr.. Rockefeller has aroused
a great deal of derision by a speech
before what we may call, for lack of

Sunday ,school class, by declaring his
opposition to gifts of money. Sym
pathy, says Mr.. Rockefeller, is what

sympathy that he carries to any per-
son in need of assistance. People
have laughed at young MIR. Rookie

But something might be
said in defence Of his scheme. 1t is
right to this extent, that poor people

SPRING DRESS FABRICS.

Hairy and rough fabrics are among
the early spring dress goods that
have already been placed upon the
counters. These will later be made
into walking and travelling suits.
Scotch goods of all kinds will also be
much worn. Bourettes effects are to
be seen in different weaves. and these
will, later on, be transformed into
street dresses. Mohairs are likely TO
be in great demand for the late
spring weeks, and they are now
offered to the feminine world in grea;
variety.
For indoor wear. for either even,
ing or afternoon, crepe de chine still
holds its own, aud its popularity will
continue On into the summer. Nuns
yelling in all colors and shades will
be made into spring dresses, and
albatross is another revival that bids
for great popularity.
Checks, plaids and stripes are
about equally divided in the early
showing, and there is likely to be a
sharp contest for supremacy. Black
and white effects still hold the atten.
ton Of the designers, and so the
plaids, checks and stripes are mainly
in these colors.

HINTS ABOUT FURNISHINGS.

Never have an accumulation OF

are far more dignified and they dc

Chairs should be chosen for com.
fort, as well as for appearance. The
fragile ones that look as though they
would collapse if a substantial person
sat on them should be abolished from
the modern home.
A blue and white paper is a good
choice for a north room, as also is
green for dark room. Yellow is
good, as it gives the effect of sun.
shine. Blue and white are cold in
effect and green absorbs the light.
A figured carpet makes more ap-
parent the size of a small room. a
plain carpet is best, and, if possible
carpet two rooms opening into each
other alike. so as to give the idea of
greater space.

blue silk voile was cut a rempire

moved one caught glimpses of ten
der green chiffon underdress. This
shade of green is seen in many of
the Paris models. a delightful little
Josephine coat was cut ever so short
and composed Of green and gold bro
cade, edged with pale-blle silk fringe.
Folds of chiffon and a big lace fichu
and transparent sleeves of pale blue
wolfe completed this delightful tea
gown, which was cut decollete
enough to enable it to be worn for
dining in. The sleeves fell just below
the elbow, caught here and there
with gaugings and veilings of the
apple green. A distinct note was
struck in this empire model by an in
verted plat at the back which ap-
peared to be dragged through the
zouave and held with quaint clasps of
enamel in the center of the back.
This gave pretty graceful line.

BLUE SERGE FASHIONABLE.

Blue serge, that most faithful of
materials, is to be fashionable again
this season, and it is not only TO be
found in the big department shops
made up in the inexpensive costumes,
but at the more exclusive private es-
adjustments, where high prices are
asked. There is blue serge and blue
serge, and consequently there is a
wide range of choice in the different
weaves of the material as well as in
the different styles. The rough welt,
or cord, is very smart, but looks al
most too heavy for summer wear.
However, it is being made up into
yachting costumes and into the short
walking gowns that are so fashion
able for the moment.
The closer weaves with cheviot or
camelshair finish are made into the
more elaborate costumes, with
strappings of cloth bands of taffeta
or MORE ribbon or with quite
elaborate braiding. Short and most
fanciful jackets or blouses and Nor
folk jackets are the favorite styles
for this sort of gown, the long tailor
coat of the more severe order being
thought quite inappropriate, and yet
there are some few blue serge gowns
of this sort of serge made with the
three-quarter coat, half-fitting, and
not one particle of trimming.

AMERICAN BEAUTY SHADES.

Immense hats or little toques and
bOnnets, such as they wore years
ago, are to be worn this spring. The
milliners assure one that American
beauty rose shades are the greatest
favorites among tints and colors, and
then they show one the so-called
American beauty shades-all tones of
rose and red, from crimson through
the magenta shades of palest pink.
AS a matter of fact in Horticulture,
the American beauty rose has but
one set of tints, and these all verge
on the purple; it is a pink in which
there is a great deal of mauve, and
the edges of the petals are meyer as
pale as the shade of red which we
commonly call pink The rose is
distinctly a pastel shade" although
not as pale as many of the tints that
most persons associate with that
class of coloring.
