its help at all times to such an i'm.
portant enterprise.
The Press will advocate, as III
the past. the impro vement Of ouI
county roads by some feasible
means. In my travels for eighteen
years past. l have noticed the
great advantage of pixies over dirt
roads; advantages in moving crops,
live stock, merchandise OF all
kinds, and minerals, which cannot
be overestimated. With good
pixies all business can proceed,
winter and summer, without inter
ruption; and everv acre of land in
the county would be doubIed-yes
trebled-in value. Some company
with ample capital to build pixies,
could, we think, be found and in
terested; and, to that end, the
PRESS will lend its aid

the end, their bank accounts would

The PRESS extends the hand Of

WHY LABOR REBELS.

To The Salt Lake Herald:
There are thousands of financial, pO-
litical and economic reasons why the
whole capital of so many men in the
Industrial world is simply their mus
Cles; this being the case. that capital
must necessarily be worth a living TO
its unfortunate pOssessor. and If not,
he is morally justified in theft. Is it,,
therefore. not more manly and Christ
like to extend him a helping hand
rather than attempt any further
degradation of his manhood? If,
however. any such unfortunate can
step from job Of S1.75 per day of ten
hours to another of $3.50 for eight
hours, then il seems to me only rea-
sonable that he should be willing to
readily comply with the conditions that
made the change possible.
Our labor troubles, both local and
national. are far more political than
industrial. Our infant industries"
have become the government itself,
and are appropriating everything in
sight at the expense Of him who hath
nothing. Money before the man, self
ishness before humanity. masses and
classes, afiiuence and poverty. One
man on the government payroll for
every eleven wOrkingmen to support
If every man in this city could receive
S. day for his labor. and have steady
employment. every merchant would
soon think we had a continuous holt
day trade and the only merry-go-
round on earth. and every man could
own his own vine and fig tree. AS it
is, we have many men contracting who
do so because they do not know
enough about the business to hold a
job as a jOurneyman. and as all work
il competitive. it must necessarily be
cheap in price, and, therefore, in exc
CutiOn. The result is men are con-
stantIy building houses for others who
can never expect to own one them
selves. This being the case, trouble
is ever lowering near the merely
physical worker, while the man who
possesses the ability to be a competent
mechanic or "A successful contractor
soon recognizes that he has the ability
to do better along other lines, and he,
too frequently, does so to the great
detriment Of good construction.
But we are UP against it, We must
face the inevitable a little time longer.
A change in national matters will soon
clear the atmosphere. emancipate the
poor hOd carrier. force prosperity into
the hovel as we'll as the mansion. and
forever remove the three great bar
riers to our building operations. viz:
duties on Dominion lumber in the
shape of protection to our millionaire
lumbermen, the right of their assOcia-
ton to rob the people by eXtortionate
prices. and excessive freight rates.
This would go a long distance toward
alleviating this distress. Then, by
hanging the real estate parasites, Salt
Lake City might grow. Don't make
labor the scapegOat for the sins of
others
wish some other good Republican
would tell us how American labor is
benefited by protection" I have long
been anxious to know.

FATE OF A WASHER
Kisses Pretty Woman and Is
Knocked SenseIess by Her
Companion.

He was tempted by the ruby lips
of a fair woman. He yielded and stole
kiss. Just then there was a "biff, q"
some one turned on the sunlight and
gay young masher lay on the side
walk in a complete state of uncon-
seriousness.
1t happened on Second South street
just west of the Wilson hotel. and it
came about in this way. A crowd Of
celebrators were gathered about the
doorway of a grOg shop amusing them
selves watching the antics Of a
''masher'' who had been slipping the
wine cup until he was rather unsteady
on his feet.
Watch me kiss the next girl that
comes by" shoutsd the masher as he
DOTTED his hat and sazed up and down
the street for some one upon whom
to carry out his boast.
AT that JunctuTe a WelI-dressed
woman and a huskily-built COMPANION
who is said to be something of a prize
fighter, hove around the corner.
Just watch me here" laughed the
masher. as he bestowed a wise wink
upon the crowd AMI prepared to steal
a kiss.
As the girl walked by the masher
made a sudden dash forward, caught
her and almost before she or her COM
panion realized what was happening
he had carried out his boast and landed
kiss. But. alas, the masher was not
the only one who landed. Quick as a
flash a fist sped through the air and
came to a sudden stop alongside the
jaw of the masher. There was a crack
and a dull thud.
Darkness came down over the masher
and many brilliant stars flashed In the
armament of sudden night. The masher
lay stretched upon the sidewalk The
companion of the girl Strengthened his
disarranged coat, cast a glance at the
PROSTATE form and walked quietly
down the street with his friend.
The masher was hauled off the side
walk by some of his friends and cold
water restoratiyes were used. When
he came to his friends explained to
him that he had cOllided with a bunch
of knuckles. He felt to see if his jaw
was all there and disappeared. The
identity of the masher and the sma sher
could not be learned.

HAD TO CHOKE HIS ASSAILANT
INCIDENT THAT CAME NEAR
CAUSING RIOT ON STATE ST.
HAD TO CHOKE HIS ASSAILAN1

A drunken negro woman created all
kinds Of excitement on State street
yesterday afternoon by attempting to
amputate one of officer J. D. Browns
fingers with her teeth. The officer had
to choke the weman to make her loosen
her grip on the finger and this came
near causing a mild riot A bystander
tried to get the crowd to attack the
officer and the latter had to square
away with his club and threaten
broken craniums to any one who dared
make start. in order to protect him
self.
The woman was finally conquered
and she, together with the man who
attempted TO interfere in her behalf,
were landed in jail. The woman is
Ella Sprague, who the police say has
bad record in Colorado. Hyrum Ed
wards, a laborer, was arrested for in
terfering with the officer.
Ella got bilariOusly drunk and when
the officer found her she was sitting
on the sidewalk, her feet in the gutter.
splashing water and swearing like a
sailor. She was creating such a dis
turbance that a crowd of fifty or more
persons had collected about her. Off
Ger Brown ordered her to get off the
street. In reply she began to curse
him. Then he attempted to arrest her.
The woman seized a finger Of his hand
between her teeth, and tried to chew
it off. Try as he would the officer
could not loosen her hold.
Selling her by the throat he began
to choke her to save his finger.
At this Edwards, it is claimed by the
officer, yelled out:
why don't some Of you men stop
that brutal officer 2''
Some Of the crowd started forward
as if they were going TO carry out
the suggestion. Officer Brown squared
around with his club and promised
TO put the first man who made a move
in the hospital for a while. The pros
pect evidently did not look good 10
the crowd and they quoted down.
The officer then succeeded in choking
the woman loose from the finger that
she had been chewing on all the while
and seized Edwards. BY that time
help arrived and the two prisoners
were taken to the police station.
The negro woman had gotten into
the hysterical stage by this time and
she made the station ring with her
profanity. She varied her flow Of
oratOry by jumping up and down on
the floor, pounding the desk and shak-
ing her fist at the officers. When she
was finally landed in the drunk house
she attempted to tear it to pieces, but
being unable to accomplish that she
burst forth in song. She sang In the
Good Old Summer Time" with many
variations, stopping between verses to
swear at the police. She was charged
with disturbing the peace and Ed
wards was charged with interfering
with an officer

PROTECT THE BIRDS
Expert Tells What Kind of Hats
Women viii Wear
Hereafter.

Women will have to be more careful
in what they use for ornamentations on
hats in the future, said q. d. Banks at
the Kenyon yesterday. With a view
to protecting birds OF plumage very
stringent laws have been passed in a
number of states prohibiting the sale
of or the wearing of feather ornaments
of certain descriptions.
At conference in Paris recently,
through the solicitation of the Audi
bOnS society and OrnithOlOgiSts, an
agreement was entered into with the
buyers of American millinery estab-
lishments to eliminate certain species
of birds from the market. The species
to be thus preserved are. of course, dis
tinctively birds of Dlumage that have
been so ruthlesSly slaughtered for or
lamentations in the past. The coming
season will see large birds, wherever
used. made up in soft. flexible shapes,
the products of food birds which would
have been destroyed anyway, if not
for millinery purposes.
These effects are TO be worn on top
of the crown of the hats and are to be
the ultra swell effects. 1t is to be a
season of rich colOrings, combining
natural shades and a general mixture
of navy blue and royal-shaded into an
emerald hue. Black wings, blackbirds,
doves, in colors representing browns,
are what Partisan manufacturers are
offering for the coming season. There
is also tendency TO feathered breast
effects, made up of materials agreed
upon between the societies mentioned
and dealers, in long, SCOTT effects, to be
worn the same as long ostrich plumes
we're last season. They include fine
hackle breasts in white, cream and

yesterday. MY brother used TO be

my brother would leave his large prac-

in pay for his services. but one time
Magee told him he intended to pay him
by investing $1,000 for him in certain
enterprise. This IS, 600 investment grew
until il was worth something like $3.50

refused to pay it, and he sued. There
