Louie Davidson, one of the oldest
residents of the Mineral Park country,
has just been rewarded for his years
of faith in the mines of that section by
striking wonderfully rich ore in the
Baden Baden mine, near the Canyon
Station summit. The ore taken from the
opening in the vein fairly glistens with
gold and its value to the ton ranges
away up in the thousands of dollars.
The vein is big one and the ores car.
ries small values in gold, but this new
discovery is on different order from
anything heretofore discovered In that
section. The gold is free and fills the
rock beautifully. Mr.. Davidson has
a nice lot of the ore opened up
and will soon be in comfortable cir
cumstances. Everyone who knows
Louie Davidson will be more than
pleased to learn of his good fortune.

TIE COMMERCIAL CLUB.

THE HERALD believes that every
L citizen of Salt Lake, and every
citizen of Utah. for that matter. who
has the best interests of the city and
state at heart, viii join in congratu-
lRung the Commercial club on the
progress il has made during the first
year of it's existence. The club may
now be said to be firmly established.
1t had a place to fill. and a most i'm
pOrtant place. too. That place it is fill
ing in manner which is more than
acceptable to its warmest admirers.
When, a year ago, The Herald suG-
gested the formation of an association
to promote the business and the indus
tries of the city and state, the idea
met with a prompt and pleasing re-
sponse. There were, of course, some
men who held back some who pointed
with horror to the corpse of the old
board of trade. and predicted an I'M
timely end for the new organization.
Happily, however, these direful
prophecies have proven altogether
without foundation. They have failed
of fulfllment as certainly as the Com
place for itself. Under the manage
ment of some of Salt Lakes best bust
ness men, the Commercial club, OPP
Grated on business principles, has in
creased its membership and enlarged
its sphere of usefulness until today
it is recognized as d useful and a per-
manent factor in the furtherance of all
ST re CT
progress in municipal and state affairs.
Great credit is due 10 all of the men
who have aided in placing the club
upon it's legs, so to speak. Theirs has
been hard work theirs the response
bility and theirs should be the credit
w. A. Nelden, the first president of the
club. and all of the officers and direc-
tors associated with him, spared nc
time or pains. To their successors they
have left an enviable record, one which
is worthy of emulation.
And in this connection it is proper tC
say that to Fisher Harris, the able
affable and efficient assistant secretary
and manager, a full measure of praise
should be given. Mr.. Harris has giver
every hour of his time to the Organiza-
ton. and has given it in such a way
as to make every minute of every houl
count. Every member of the club feel:
that it would not be what it is without
Mr.. Harris.
In selecting Colonel Edwin F. Holme!
TO succeed Mr.. Nelden as president {
wise choice was made. Colonel Holmes
is a public spirited citizen who ha!
made municipal and state questions
study of years. He has the ability anC
the will to guide the club safely, anC

WHAT IS PusLlc WORSHIP

\ CHURCH PEOPLE will be interested
" in a recent decision Of the supreme
court of Illinois to the effect that a
Sunday school is not public worship.
The issue arose over an attempt TO
tax a building used for Sunday school
purposes by Christ's Protestant Epis-
copaI church of Joliet. The Illinois
statutes exempt from taxation build
ings used for church and charitable
purposes. and the vestrymen resisted
the effort to tax this particular struc-
tUre. The court said:
1t is essential to the exemption of
church property under the statute that
II shall be actually and exclusively
used for public worship. The meaning
OF the words. public Worship, in the
statute is the worship of God by
prayer, praise. and the preaching of
the gospel. Sunday schools
are conducted in order to im9art re-
ligious instruction to the youth of the
congregation and community and not
for the purpose OF public worship. The
distinction between congregational
worship and religious education of the
young is broad and unmistakable. "a
As d strict matter of Law. the de
cision is probably correct. but it is
just as well in some cases to con-
strua the statutes with q degree of
liberality. The legislature of Illinois
! unquestiOnably intended to exempt
Sunday school buildings from taxation
when it exempted church buildings. If
there were no churches there would
be no Sunday schools. The former may
exist without the latter, but the sun
days schools could hardly exist with
out the churches.
| Indeed, it is entirely probable that, if
Sunday schools were abolished.
churches would die sooner or later
also, The Sunday school is the church's
/ training ship. There the youngsters
( are taken and taught the elements of
religion: there they learn how to run
/ the ship which in time they must take
/ in charge. And the Sunday school is
/ public worship. too, in a broad sense.
! Songs of praise are sung in the Sun
! day schools and prayers are uttered
/ and lessons are read just as in church
meetings, the only difference being
/ that the exercises are simplified to
meet the requirements of the congre-
/ cation.

ANEW TRUST ADVOCATE,

GOVERNOR MURPHY of. New Jer-
" sey took a decidedly advanced
stand on the trust question in his mes
sage to the legislature of that state
AS New Jersey is the home of the
trust, or at least it's favorite place Of
Incorporation, it was to have been ex-
pected that Governor Murphy would
not be able to see anything evil in
them. However, the best friend of the
trusts hardly believed the executive
would go as far as he did Said he:
As matter of fact. there are few. if
any real trusts, and the name is given
promiscuOusly TO large corporations OF
all kinds. especially If composed of
combination of 4 number of smaller con-
Germs.
The country has no more occasion for
alarm than the Arab has for an Ifrit or
we have for the ogre of our childhood.
II has become the fashion of the day
to assail corporations on general prin-
ciDles. and the public man who is bold
enough to say word IN their favor runs
the risk Of bitter criticism as TO his mo-
tive rs II il were crime to be a stock
holder. and immoral to he the friend Of
q stakeholder
So great n number Of corporations have
organized under our laws that the fees
and taxes from this source are sufficient
to paw the annual expenses of the state.
20 pay large proportion of the cost Of
our public education and to leave a hand
some surplus besides.
We have taken their money and sold
them the charters under which they do
their business. We continue to take
their money each year IN the shape of
taxes. for which we give them the con-
tinued protection of our laws.
1t is a new principle of civil govern
ment TO say that because a state re-
ceives money from a corporation it

wrongs that corporation sees st to in
niet upon the citizens of the state that
gave it birth. The principle can easily
be reduced to an absurdity and a per-
version of all that IS just and fair and
right. States receive money from
those engaged in the liquor traffic, but
they regulate 1t with iron hands.
The Herald begs to differ from Gov
ernor Murphy on the point that the
people have nothing to fear from the
trusts. The people decidedly have
something to fear from corporations
that arbitrarily raise the prices OF
commodities which everybody must use
When a combination of men can max,
