OBITUARY.
Victor Clements, n Mining Engineer
of international Fame.

SALT LAKE CITY, April ga telegram
that place to-day of Victor Clements, Of
Salt Lake City, a mining expert of interna-
tional fame. Mr.. Clements underwent a
surgical operation yesterday, and his death,
it is believed, was due to improper medical
treatment.
Mr.. Clements conducted important mining
operations in all parts of the world. AS an
associate of John Hays Hammond he took
a conspicuous part in the development of
many great mines in South Africa. He was
regarded by the Beers one of the ring
leaders in the Jameson raid, and for many
months languished in a Transvaal Jail un-
der sentence of death. Timely Intervention
of the American and British governments
saved him from the gallows.

A Judge In the Indian Territory has fined
a telephone subscriber SO, being SO a min

wire. We are not prepared to question the
moral soundness OF the decision of the

 The committee. with the solemAity and seriousness beftting the represen- tatives of one of the great parties, took four ballots before determining the time of holding the next convention, and finally fixed or June 20, 9 week later than the republican convention. It chose as the convention city Kansas City, Mo, thus going, for the first time in the history of prohibition politics. west of the Mississippi ryer.
 The first prohibition national conven- tion met in 1872 in Columbus, O.. the next one in Cleveland, that of 1880 in Cleveland again, that Of 1884 in Pitts burg, that of 1888 in Indianapolis, that Of 1892 in Cincinnati, that of 1896 in Pittsburg, and that of 1900 in Chicago. Practically. therefore, all prohibition conventions since the formal organiza- ton of the party thirty years ago have been held in the territory between Chi cago and Pittsburg; and the prohibit tionists have sought thei. recruits most successfully in the middle west With the decline If the prohibition party however, there has been recognition of the fact that the east and middla west are no longer favorable territory.
 In New York state the prohibition party has ceased to be much of q fac tor. In the south prohibitcry legisl5- ton has been secured without the CO., operation. and indeed. in some cases against the protest of the most active prohibitionists.

The Value of Thrift Illustrated.

Accounts agree in stating that the volume of registered packages and for eign money orders sent abroad just in advance of the Christmas holidays was distinctly larger than was the case one year ago. This movement like the re- turn of so many immigrants to the lands of their birth either for brief visits or permanent residence, affords fresh proof of the general thrittiness and industry which char acteriZe the great majority of the workers who have lately come across United States.
 That most of these have done well for themselves and :hat large numbers of them lave sent some substantial token of their success to relatives in Europe is surely not discreditab'e tO the foreign born population of this re- public. It means that a good many homes on the other side of the sea will be gladdened during the holiday season; and it illustrates the fact that na ilNe DOTH AllleIiCdll- Cstl lGdtill SOil4t- thing of thrift and economy from the alien residents of this country.
 The habit of saving some portion Of their earnings which marks so great a proportion of the immigrants. is one that can profitably be initiated. It Goes not follow that the American standards of living ought to be low cred, so far as generous provision fo- household comfort is concerned. But there is a sharp difference between sensible liberality and unwise profus- ion. Wage e2rners who. while pro viding suitably for their families, insist on setting aside regularly a part, even if it is a small part, of their incomes. are not only enabled to do their Christ mas giving with less pinching of their pocketbooks, but they have the sold satisfaction of knowing that their per sonal independence and their security against the effects of the misfortunes of accident or illness. are correspond ingly increased.
