a RIGHTEOUS PROTEST.

IN THEIR PROTEST against the ac-
ton of the county commissioners in
seeking to compel every individual in
the county offices to work eight hours,
the suffering employees viii have the
thorough sympathy of every member
of the Ancient Order of the Sons of
Rest. 1t certainly is most cruel and in
human to expect public officials to
work in nice. warm offices for as long
a period as eight hours every day. The
commissioners are -blooded brutes
for even entertaining such a notion.
Now, If the young men and young
women IN the county Offices were mo-
Tormen and motorladies, it would not be
too much to expect them to work eight.
ten, twelve and even fourteen hours
out Of every twenty-four. All a mo-
torman has 10 do is to stand on the
front platform in the pure. fresh. crisp
air and twist brake with one hand
and controller with the other. When
he is hungry, especially on such days
as yesterday. he can, by the simple
process of opening his mouth. secure a
stomach full OF snowfakes.
Verify, the lot of the motorrnan is
light and airy trlfe when compared
with the hardships borne by the coun-
ty employees. They are forced to be in
their placee every morning at o'clock
That in itself, is an outrage most in
famous. These cold winter mornings
it is very hard, indeed, to get UP in
time to reach the joint building by 9
O'Clock, especially if you have been to
a dance or a social the night before.
And then the poor creatures have to
labor on until 1t is o'clock in the aft
ernoon, with only an hour or so for
luncheon.
In the words of the popular song.
Amt it shame?" Even seven hours
a day are too much in such miserable
quarters as those furnished by the
county to its workers. Even though
one considers that the young men and
young women have only leather arm
chairs to sit in, though we remember
that the sumptuous rooms are heated
and ventilated to a nicely. we cannot
help shuddering at the unfortunate pre-
dicament in which these human beings
are placed.
Why, six hours a day would be bad
enough, but why six? What's the mat
ter with cutting the times down to five
and four and three and then to barely
long enough to sign the monthly pay
roll. In the interest of common hu-
mainly, The Herald rises to demand
this reform. Out upon the brutal com
missioners who would have the public's
employees earn their pay. Those base
officials should be hanged, drawn and
chartered. It is true that lots of other
people work a great deal harder for
far less money, but then they are not
paid out Of the public treasury. That
seems to make considerable difference.

T HIS IS SURELY the age of forgive
ness, the age when old feuds and
animosities are blotted from the pages
of memory, while peace and love ana
charity take their places. Before the
legislature of the state of Pennsylvania
a bill is pending which provides an ap-
preparation of 500 900 to aid the state
of Virginia in erecting a monument to
the memory of General Robert E. Lee
on the site of the battle of Gettysburg.
While somH differences of opinion as
to the propriety of the appropriation
may exist, the spirit which has actu-
ated it's introduction cannot be regard
ed unfavorably. The author of the
measure is a Union veteran who fought
at Gettysburg. 1t is being espoused
by A. X. Mcclure of Philadelphia and
by other prominent men whose 10y
atty 10 the Union during the war Of
the rebellion was beyond the POSSIBLE
ity of question.
And yet, great soldier though he
was. kindly, Christian gentleman in
the best meaning of the expression,
the leader of the cause that was lost
is hardly entitled to this posthumous
recognition at the hands of the men
with whom he fought. OF all the gen
erals the civil war produced, Lee was
easily the greatest. If he had had the
resources at the command of Grant
and, God be thanked. he did not have
them-that fierce fraternal struggle
might have resulted differently.
Forty years after the close of the
conflict the nation can afford to be
generous and forgiving. We are one
people, working out our world destiny
under one flag and working it out
grandly. There are no sectional diff
ferences now, no jealousies, no bitter
hatreds, and we do not need such an
evidence as this proposed testimonial
to General Lee to prove it. Nor do
we believe a majority of the veterans
of the COnfederacy desire it.
If a monument to Lee is to be placed
on Gettysburg's blood-soaked soil. let
il De put there by southern money,
raised by southern men and women
who loved and believed in their Chris
tan knight and who love and honor
his memory If Lee, forgiving and
forgiven. could speak. he would have
it so: he would have the people with
whom and for whom he fought. with
whom and for whom he suffered. raise
this monument or he would have no
monument at all.

MR.. HEwL1TTs POSITION.

10 The Salt Lake Herald:
10 an intelligent person reading the pa
pers the last few days and reports of the
proceedings before the senate committee
on the pure food bill it would look as
though the manufacturers of baking pow
der in the state of Utah were a lot OF
scoundrels and were trying to rob the
public by imposing on them articles of
food unfit to eat on behalf of the man
utacturers of this state we desire to en-
ter our protest against such language and
the discrimination which is being used
against US.
The only objection particularly We have
entered against the food bill is a clause
IN section 81, which gives the food COM
missioner tue power, if he felt so dis
posed, to discriminate against one prod
uct IN favor Of another. which would be
unjust, and all we wish is that the food
commissioner duty shall be fully de-
fined. as the home manufacturers shOlsld
receive the same treatment as those who
ship IN from eastern and western states.
Mr. Heiner and M. Love. seeing the
justice in this, said they were willing TO
eliminate the clause.
The morning papers come out and say
that strenuous efforts were made to get
the manufacturers before the senate COM
mittee, but they were afraid to appear.
which is ridiculous and entirely uncalled
Tor. The justice OF our position being ap-
parent. made it unnecessary for our APP
pearance. and we sincerely protest
against such language being used against
the manufacturers of baking powder in
the state of Utah. for we claim and can
demonstrate the fact that the baking
powders mace IN TINS state are lust as
healthful and a good deal purer than
those that are imported and sold at a
higher price, and We are perfectly willing
that the senate and house pass a law de-
rnanding that all baking powders manu-
featured in Utah and also imported in
this state shall have their formulas print
ed in large letters on the labels. but ws
DO heartily protest against making she
manufacturers in Utah label their goods
whas they contain and not making the
imported baking powder manufacturers
n
see why baking powder manufacturers
should be singled out for attack in prefer
ence to other manufacturers Whv not
make the law uniform and have all food
product manufacturers print their for
mula so people can see what they are
using. Yours very truly,
