Reed SmOot Can Do no Harm.

Bishop Leonard Of the Episcopal
church is disposed to take a moderate
and conservative view Of the election
of Reed Smoot as United States Sena-
tor. In the first place, the Bishop
says he does not believe in such wea-
pons as vituperation or violent host
ility or exaggerated statements as to
the opinions and practices Of those
with whom we happen not to be in
religious and political accord.
at is my conviction" said the
Bishop, "that much more harm than
good is done by hasty and ill-consid-
cred attacks. 1t Is the policy of my
church, as it ought to be of all Christ
ian people, to obey the apostolic in
junction, "If it be possible, as much
as lieth in you, live peacefully with all
men," Now you and / may have our
own opinion as to the expediency Of
sending Mr.. Smoot to the Senate.
We might think it would have been
better If, under all the circumstances,
he had not been elected, and that
without casting any reflection upon
his character as a law-abiding citizen.
But the fact remains that he has
been so elected in conformity with the
forms of law. When he goes to Wash
ington and presents his credentials,
would it not on the whole be better
to allow him to take his seat?
Having been duly elected, my idea
is that he should be properly impress
ed with the responsibilities of his posi-
ton, and taught to realize that not
merely in name but in fact it is his
duty to represent the people of Utah
without religious or partisan distinc-
tion. He would not be in place
where he could do much harm even if
he so desired, and If it should seem
advisable it would be an easy matter
for the Senate Of the United States to
adopt a measure disqualifying as
future Senators all persons holding
high ecclesiastical positions.
This" added the Bishop, smiling,
would result in barring us all out,
but it would possess the merit of be-
ing both dignified and effective" -

suchanan's Birthplace in Decay,

Within the walls of log hut To-
Gated formerly in what is known as
Stony Battery, few miles from here,
In Franklin county, says a MERGERS
burg correspondent Of the Philadelphia
Press, was born, on April 23, 1871, the
boy who became the fifteenth Presi-
dent of the United States-James
Buchanan. A few years ago the people
of Mercersburg saw fit to preserve
this relic, and with that object in view
the hut was removed for couple Of
miles from its original site to its pres
ent place, at the edge Of town. Since
then local interest in the little struc.
ture has died away. 1t was rented
rot long ago to colored family, and
to-day, save for their occasional minis.
trations, receives neither care nor re.
pair.

Trains of Starving Cattle.

The long-continued drought in some Of
the southern portions of Australia has
resulted In some queer scenes there.
Farmers in the north having offered
their pasture land for the starving cat
tie and horses, the government has I'm.
dertaken the transportation Of these
animals to the pasture lands, and
whole trains have been devoted to the
work, to the delay and detriment of
other railroad business. Some of the
animals were so weak that the placing
of them on the cars presented a seri-
Gus problem. Pastoral lands in the
affected districts have reverted to
state of desert. Victoria and New
South Wales have suffered immense
loss, while in Queensland the drought

ress Of the country back fifteen years.

License for LAWYERS.

There seems to be a wide diver
gence of opinion among attorneys
themselves as to the legality of the
proposed ordinance compelling law
yers to take out licenses in order to
practice in the city Of Chicago. Alder
man Sloan recently suggested such a
plan in the city council, and it re-
ceived some attention at that time.
Some lawyers are of the opinion that
the tax could not be legally collected,
and that the city has no power what
ever to exact this OF attorneys. 9th.
ers maintain that the city has the
right to exact licenses Of attorneys as
1t would of brokers, real estate men,
butchers, and merchants In general.

CLOCKS USED AS EDUCATORS
Armour Institute Professor Pleads for
Idea Used bx Germans.

Idea Used by Germans.
while travelling in Europe last
summer" said Prof. Louis C. Monin
of Armour institute, Chicago. the 9th
err day, II came across a queer little
clock. 1t was complete in all its
parts, but was not put together. 1t is
intended that children shall examine
the different parts of the affair and
then arrange them so that the clock
will run.
II should like to see such a contriv-
ance as this introduced into America.
1t interests children, instructs them
and gives them natural pride in car
ing for something that they have ere
ated.
"Over in Germany they call these
little contrivances 'tick-tacks,' and
primary educators set great store by
them. In Chicago the small boy is
given locomotives miniature rail-
road. He then proceeds to smash it
to pieces, and his proud parents pre-
sent him with a 10Y electric launch.
He also smashes that. AS that boy
grows up he becomes more reckless.

IN PUBLIC MEN.

The closing remarks of Apostle
Woodruff, at the conference just clos
ed in this city were very opportune.
Regarding the recognition paid to
persons holding the Priesthood in the
lesser degrees, he remarked that the
President of the church Joseph II.
Smith, took great delight in showing
proper Difference to young men who
were teachers and deacons, when they
called upon him. This is highly pro-
per, for all persons like due respect
shown them in whatever capacity
they occupy in life. This trait of
character has been admired in great
many of our leading men in years
past. President Geo @. Cannon,
would hardly let a person pass him
without recognition. Ezra II. Benson
our first apostle in this county
endeared himself to the people through
his kindness of heart and atfability.
Any man who wishes to live IN the
hearts of the people must not live
above them, or apparently so, a shake
of the hand, an inquiry as to their
welfare awakens warm feeling that
is far reaching, whereas cold nod or
a simple bow of the head has an
opposite effect Kind words are a
cheap commodity and those who do
not impart them would do well to
cultivate this habit.

The Democratic part of the Colorado

The Democratic part of the Colorado
Legislature met and elected ii. NJ.
Teller to the United State Senate.
Not a single Republican member was
present. The Republicans do not re-
cognize the election of Teller as legal
and will meet and elect Senate of
their own.
The Republicans have 10 members
OF the Senate, and 40 members of the
House. The Democrates have 20 mem
bers i'm the Senate, and 20 members in
the House. The Republicans therefore
control the House If the Republicans
were united they could control in Joint
session but they are at logger heads
among themselves and cannot unite

Rural free Delivery.

The fact that at the present time
farmers that live in a territory repre-
senting 100000 square miles of the
United States have the mail delivered
and collected by government carriers,
indicates the development of the
Rural Free Delivery system. When it
is remembered that this area COM
priSeS nearly one-third of the present
territory of the country devoted to
agriculture. This service in a small
way began in 1895. The permanent
organization was not effected until
July !, 1902. Since the date of the
permanent establishment of this
system the force of mail carriers has
been increased until there is now
force of $1,000 men, who daily travel
about 100000 miles Of land for the
benefit Of 100000 Of people. Some
counties entirely depend upon this
system for their mail service. About
2,2OO small post offices have been dis
continued whose salary list amount
ed to 100000 annually. In the
selection Of men to cover the various
routes, the law provides that only
pers, 40 who have lived at least one
year within The district covered are
eligible TO office. They must pass an
examination which tests their ability
toread and write, and their knowledge
Of mathematics. They must also pro-
vide themselves with a suitable yehi-
Gle drawn by one or two horses as be-
comes necessary. A salary of 5000 a
year is paid to serve routes Of twenty
miles and over; $500 for sixteen to

Support Your Home Merchant.

The following from the Waupa-
ca Post fits this city about as well
as any other place in Wisconsin.
'eThe man who sends out of toWc
for merchandise that he can buy
at home is about as foolish as the
individual who thought he could
run a locomotive without fuel and
water. The local merchant pays
rent, hires clerks and pays taxes,
besides a number of other expen-
ses that go very largely TO build
up our city. The outside mail
order houses pays nothing to the
support of the town and cares n. ta-
ing for its prosperity. The home
merchant is asked for credit by
many of his customers. The mail
order house never gives it. The
home merchant gives prompt ser
vice. The outsider sends the goods
when he gets good and ready
The home merchant has his goods
where you can see them and Sc
lect what you want. but ifyou buy
elsewhere it is hard to make any
changes Our merchants have
good stocks and should be sup
ported in their efforts to do bust
ness and help build up the city.
In most cases they sell for less
than the net cost IF merchandise
brought from the cities, where
the quality is considered. The
man who sends. his money outside
stands in much the same relation
to the city as the man who stands
on the corner and tells what poor
town he is living in. They may
not realize it, but they are both
knockers of theIvery worst type"

Seeks the Companionship
of the Willy Deer.

Iron River Pioneer-Last spring
James {. Smith, of this city, lost
one of his ponies and for several
months he could find no trace of
it, although on numerous occas-
ions he searched for it and made
many inquiries without result. A
short time ago Chas. Puzey was
looking land about fifteen miles
south of this city and he saw many
tracks of a pony in clump of
timber. A little later he saw the
pony and four deer graz
ing together During Mr. Puzey's
stay in that locality he saw the
horse at different times and the
deer-a buck, a doe and two fawns
were always with him. He mott
fed Mr.. Smith of his discovery
and last week directed HIM to the
place. and sure enough, there they
located the horse and close by his
side were the deer. The deer
scented the gentlemen and scamp
cred away into the timber follow
ed by the horse. They made sew
eral attempts to capture it of no
avail. 1t seems that the horse has
made companions of the deer and
appears to be as willy as any of
them.
