The BOOMING HOUSE EVIL.

TIE ROOMTNG HOUSE ordinance
4 passed by the council Wednesday
night is calculated to correct an evil
which all salt Lakers are cognizant Of,
but we doubt If it viii have the effect
its sponsors intend. Briefly, the meas
ure provides that keepers Of roOming
houses where there are ten or more
rooms must keep a register and must
require all individuals occupying rooms
TO inscribe their names therein.
or course the law is aimed at persons
who visit rooming houses for immoral
purposes. However, there is no method
by which the giving Of fictitious names
can be prevented. Individuals who are
so lost to all sense of decency as to 90
to rooming houses for improper pur-
poses viii hardly hesitate to write false
names on the register. The letter Of
the law win thus be obeyed, but its
spirit VIII be violated and its intent de-
streyed.
The proper way to reach the rOOming
house evil is to invoke the disorderiy
house law in the prosecution Of the pro-
prietors. It should not be at all hard
for the police to make out cases against
a number Of the proprietors of these
infamous dens- Any one who walks
about the streets at night with his eyes
open sees young men and young women
visiting these places. They are respon-
sibIe for the ruin Of dozens Of girls ev-
cry. year.
In many instances the individuals are
seen by the police to enter the houses
1t is known that they are given rooms
without question. Why, then, should
not the proprietors be prosecuted? IN
Ill they are prosecuted we shall con-
tinue to have the evil. This register
business win have no effect whatever,
for the reasons above stated, and for
others that viii suggest themselves as,
for instance. the padding of the books
byi the proprietOrs with fictitious names.
ii is always well to start reforms
When reforms are needed, but unless
reforms are properly started they are
worse than no reforms at all

to northern Montana, but the step does
not take one outside the boundary OF
the United States. a telegram from
Butte. published yesterday. said that
the thermometer was from to de-
grees below. zero at Coutts. Mont, and
that ten feet Of snow had fallen. The
loss TO owners Of livestock was said TO
be tremendous. an actual estimate

Here in Utah for about a week we
have had phenomenally cold weather.
considering the season. It is phenom-
email not so much because it is cold,
for frequently in the spring we have a
cold day or two now and then, but be
cause it has lasted so long As far as
reports received up to the present time
would indicate. the losses in this state
fned chiefly to the early vegetables, the
fruit being so far advanced, in most 10
calities, as to be beyond harm
Nor has the loss in vegetables
amounted TO more than a retaTdment
Of their progress toward maturity
Should a sharp frost come now, though,
the crops Of new potatoes, strawberries,
tomatoes and the like would be absO-
lutely ruined. Still. it is possible that
the freeze may not come We can at
least hope for the best.
The rains are doing excellent service
for the farmers in that they are giving
the soil the thorough wetting it needed
TO give the cereal crops a good start
for the summer. The city's water sup
ply is benefited to some extent, too, be-
cause il is almost invariably true that
rain in the valley means snow in the
mountains and snow in the mountains
at this season means a saving Of the
snow already there in storage for the
summer.
All things considered, we haven't
much cause for complaint. We should
be able to put up with the temporary
inconvenience caused by the prolonged
storm, and when the sunshine does
come, as come it must before so very
long, Wen all be in the humor to ap-
preciate it.

SENATOR PRooToR's "PULL."

n EHOLD. how good and how pleas
ID ant 1t is to have a pull with the
government. Senator RedfieId Proc
tors pull" or influence or what
ever YOU choose to call it, is a thing
10 wonder at, to admire, almost to re-
we're. There probably isn't another like
it in the United States or any other
country under the shining sun-that IS,
the sometimes shining sun
These reflections are caused by the
announcement that the marble to be
used in the construction Of salt Lakes
new federal building is coming from
Senator PrOctor's QUarries in the good
old state OF Vermont. 1t must come
from there because Senator PrOctor's
"pulT' was strong enough to drag it
into the specifications for the Salt Lake
building. Now, think Of that for just
a few minutes.
Roughly speaking, Vermont is some
thing like 1900 miles from Utah. The
Proctor stone win be shipped over that
distance. the government paying the
freight. when stone just as good in
every respect for the purpose for which
# is intended can be had in limitless
quantities here in Utah, within thirty
or forty miles of Salt Lake.
Let us leave out Of the question en-
tirelv the improperly of using Yer
mont stone on a Utah building when
Utah stone is perfectly available. Why
should the government drop so much
money into the hands Of Senator Proc
tor. and incidentally the railroad com
uanies? The latter are not going to
haul il for nothing. Instead, they VIII
charge a good, round price Senator
Proctor is not going to furnish IT for
less than a handsome figure, for he
has US in a place where we must use
his stone or none.
Seriously, isn't that ar absurd state
Of affairs2 If ii is not too late, The
Herald would like very much to see
those specifications changed so as TO
cut out the Proctor stone. But that
is manifesrIy impossible, for # the SEN
ator had influence enough to get his
stone into the specifications. he has
influence enough to keep anybody from
striking Il out Of the specifca lions. So
we must make the best Of bad situa-
ton.
In the language Of the street, it is
..up to us to wait with such patience
as we can muster while Senator Proc
tor ouarries our stone, while he loads
If onto ears and while the railroads
hing II to US. VIII the completion OF
The building be delayed by all this
That is a question which only Senator
Proctor himself can answer. We are
completely at the mercy Of the gentle
man from Vermont.

THE CUBAN ANNIVERSARY.

THE DISPATCHES published yester-
L day announced the celebration in
Cuba of the first anniversary of the
birth Of the Cuban republic. The eel
ebration is one that may properly cause
a thrill of pride in the heart of every
American citizen no page in the his
tory Of this republic is brighter or bet
ter entitled to endure everlastingly
than the page that tells of our inter
ference in behalf of Cuba and our full
hllment Of every pledge made to the
people Of the new republic.
When, after the destruction of the
battleship Maine in Havana harbor,
war with Spain became inevitable,
there were those who said that terri
tOriaI extension was one of the causes
that led the United States into the con
fict. We said then that we had no
desire to annex Cuba What we did
desire and what we insisted upon was
Cuban independence. So the war was
fought and won.
The close of the conflict found the
American troops in possession of Cuba.
Our soldiers occupied Havana and
every island garrison previously held
by the Spanish. Then, by degrees, order
was brought out Of chaos. The people
who had been suffering and fighting
and starving under the Spanish yoke
were given an opportunity to return to
their desolated plantations, to rebuild
their ruined homes.
Havana, from a plague-scOurged
fever-ridden city. was transformed into
a metropolis with a death rate as low
as the death rate of the average Amer
lean city. The yellow fever scourge
was driven out, smallpox was banished,
modern sewerage systems installed and
streets cleaned. The whole city and
the whole island were put in order.
And then an election was held for con-
gressmen- and senators and for a presi-
dent.
The Cubans were allowed to select
their own officials without the slightest
fear Of interference from this govern
ment. although when the election was
held our forces were still in possession
of the. island. And not long after the
election the officers were installed, the
American troops were Withdrawn and
the star Of a new republic rose in the
western hemisphere.
Surely nothing could be more glorious
than this: nothing could be more IN
selfish; nothing could set a better ex-
ample to the nations of the world. Cuba
has risen nobly to her opportunity We
are informed that the new republic is
prospecting beyond the most sanguine
hopes of those who hoped most for ~
The institutions established during the
American occupation are being main
tanned, even broadened and bettered;
capital is flowing in to develop Cuba's
wonderful resources; homes are being
rebuilt and plantations are once more
adding richly to the worlds agricul-
tural wealth.
And the United States can, with all
truth, invite the nations to look upon
Cuba and say: This is our work. See
what the greatest of all the republics
has done for humanity"
