In SPITE Of the efforts of Mayor Low
and Comptroller Grout to cut down ex-
penses in New York, the new budget is
likely to reach $105, 900, 600. When
work was first commenced on the new
budget last week it was thought that it
could be kept below the 500, 900, 600
mark, but insistent demands of the
commissioners have caused both the
Mayor and Comptroller to admit that
the budget will go to an unprecedented
figure. The republicans and indepen-
dents are prone to charge Tammany with
extravaganza, but the history of New
York shows that its municipal affairs
have been as economically administered
by that organization as by any other.

Mrs. Vanderbilt and her children, we're

CANDIDATES. FOR POPE.

zine, the chances OF the various sup
posed candidates for the vacant papal
throne Mr. Crawford is intimately &C
qualnted with the subject, but he ven

the coming conclaye. He seems to
think that Cardinal Gott has good

dice against the election OF a monk

thought the pope indicated as his
choice Mr.. Crawford says positively:
He win never be a candidate for the
papacy. nor viii his influence In
conclaye be great, even II he should at

The author says that many would
look upon the election Of Rampolla as
a calamity, because his policy aims at

an implacable warfare against official

PIONEERS DAY.

Tomorrow will be Pioneers Day In
this state 1t is legal holiday II
should be duly observed as an import
ant anniversary. On July 4, 1917, the
company Of Pioneers, headed by Presl-
dent Brigham Young. that had leit
Winter Quarters ON the Missouri river
in April OF the same year, formally set
tied on the site of this city. An ad-
vance company had entered the valley
two days before, and President Young
and his immediate associates Joined the
others on the cath. That day has been
commemorated ever since and is now
legal holiday by State statute.
The journey from Winter Quarters
was most remarkable trip for the
1i3 men, two women and three children
that composed the company. For them
It was entirely new ground. IL was
virtually an exploration. 1t was adj
yenturous, yet in fIldlment of prophecy
and the plans given by the Prophet
Joseph Smith before his martyrdom. NO
member OF the company was lost by the
way. The spot for the end Of the great
Journey was recognized by the inspired
leader as soon as It was spread before
his gaze. He designated the place TOT
the city and the site for the Temple,
and his choice and Judgment were re-
cognlzed as "the word Of the Lord
The changes that have been wrought
on this then desert waste have been
marvellous. Truly the divine blessing
has attended the efforts Of the Pioneers

TAKE ACTION AT ONCE.


We have directed the attention OF the
Utah public to the Irrigation Congress,
the eleventh session Of which IS to be
held at ogden. September 18th to 18th,
1903 We have also urged that dele
gates be appointed, without unneces-
sary delay, from every section OF the
State TO attend the Congress and take
part In the proceedings We now repeat
our suggestion that the necessary APP
pointments be made so that the dele
gates from a distance may make ar
rangements TO attend. The basis OF rep
resentation officially prepared Is as fol-
lows:
The Governor OF each state and Ter
ritory may appoint 20 delegates; the
Mayor of each city OF less population
than 5000. two; OF more than $4,000.
-four; each board Of County Commits
sioners, two; each Chamber Of Com
merce Board OF Trade, Commercial
Club or Real Estate Exchange, two;
each Society Of Engineers. two; each
Emigration Society and Agricultural
College, and each College or University
having a chair Of hydraulic engineering
or Of forestry two. The President Of
the United States and members Of his
cabinet duly accredited representatives

suit on measures for the benefit Of
those regions that depend wholly or
partially on irrigation for the cultlva-
tion Of the soil. It Is hoped therefore
that the officials who have the right to
appoint delegates to the Congress win
BE- on the alert, that the right kind Of
selections will be made. and that those
who are appointed viii be promptly on
the spo, and take an active part In all
the proceedings.

RUSSIA AND MANCHURiA.

Rightly 10 weigh the value OF Mr..
Hays treaty, Il should be realized that
he probably maintains the diplomatic
fiction Of Chinese Manchura mere
ly as a pious hope, and as a techni-
cal advantage IN negotiating with the
most slippery OF foreign offices What
Mr. Hay is after is trade privileges He
has exhausted an the resources Of d.
plomacy to force Russia 20 grant free
entry In Manchuria TO all the world, He
very properly insists upon all the COM
mercial advantages that he could have
obtained from China, and while not for
mauy opposing the steps which lead TO
Russian occupation. he has valiantly
opposed an measures that tend 20 give
Russia a monopoly Of the trade Of
North China. Here Il II that the dog
