Fine Stores Line Our Streets
From One End TO
the Other

It is very evident that prosperity
has struck Salem and is still striking,
judging from the large and attractive
stores that line our streets from one
end of town to the other
The merchants ore all carrying
larger and better stocks than they
did FIVE years ago. Our reporter
called into Buren & Hamilton's today
to look through the store, and was
shown what they have done during the
last year in the way OF making more
space for showing goods. They have
added a large balcony in the second
story, enlarged their carpet depart.
ment, put in passenger elevator, and
improved the store generally.
The increase in their business has
been such as to require them to build
a large twostory warehouse, which
they have just completed. This is al.
ready full to overlooking. to meet the
demands Of their fall trade. They
buy their goods direct from the East,
in full car loads, which makes a great
saving in price. Judging from the
quality of new goods they are receiv.
ing. we agree with Buren & Hamilton
that there is nothing too good for the
Salem people.

SOME NEEDED REFoRMs.

I N RESPONSE to a request from the
/ Spokane chamber Of commerce, the
Salt Lake Commercial club has agreed
to lend its aid to the passage of a bill
by congress which win give to the in
terstate commerce commission author
ity commensurate with its responsible
ity- It is a wen known fact that the
commission as at present constituted is
a useless sort Of organization 1t has
the power to hear the complaints Of
shippers, to compel the attendance Of
witnesses and to order the righting Of
such wrongs as it may ind. There its
power ends. There is no way in which
the commission can enforce its de-
crees.
1t is situated much as a fraf citizen
who finds a big beast Of man beating
woman. stop that at once. sir"
says the citizen If the big beasts
arms are weary, if ne fears that unless
he stops he viii become utterly ex-
hausted, he complies with the demand.
Otherwise he goes right along The
interstate commerce commission finds
that a railroad is discriminating
q against this town or that IN the matter
Of freight rates. Perhaps, as is often
the case. a town 300 miles further from
the common shipping point is getting
better rates than the complaining town.
The railroad attorneys come in and
explain that the discrimination is nee.
essary because it must get out of the
complainant ali that the traffic viii
beaT-a favorite railroad expression
I'm
exists in the more favored community.
But the commissioners rise in their in
dignation and say: This is wrong
You railroad men have not made out
sufficient defense. Hereafter X must
have the same rates as u" Does X
get them? Not on your sixty-foot fiat
car.
The company goes right on discrimin-
ating in favor Of Y. The commission
knows before the decisions are handed
down that they viii be Of no avail
The whole proceeding is a, farce. a bit
of opera bOuffe without the music and
the properties. If it were possible for
the commission to assess heavy fines

done between the various cities and
towns of the country. 1t might become
impossible to ship goods from New
York to San Francisco and then back
to Salt Lake cheaper, in some in
stances, than goods can now be shipped
direct from New York to Salt Lake.
And while we are on the subject of
the interstate commerce commission it
may be said that the law is not the
only thing that needs amending. A
few changes in the personnel Of the
commission, say about as many
changes as there are members, might
be wonderfully beneficial. The present ]
board is VIGOROUSLY slow about taking
action on any case. Years have been
known TO elapse between the filing Of
a complaint and the handing down of
"a decree. Besides, 1t has often been
charged, and with some justice. that
the commission is entirely too friendly
with the railroad companies.
While we are amending. why not
have a clean sweep and a new deal
from beginning to end?

Such q Fine Private Car.

If the story tod about Brigadier Gen
eral John @. CannOn's private car is
. true, nobody is likely to violate its
privacy. When the national guard was
preparing to leave for Carbon county
1t was suggested that the peace and
dignity Of the state of Utah would be
more strongly impressed upon all be
hclders if the commander Of the troops
IN the field were established in "A pri-
Vate car. The railroad company re-
ceived a gentle hint to this effect and
acted on the suggestion-also very
gently The private car. says one who
inspected it, is the first private car ever
built 1t came in before the days of
steam heat on railroads. hence has not
steam pipes. When the car was lead
ing all the private cars of the country in

cook Now. says this afiant, II has no
stove, no lamp no bed, no cook, no

Friends of General Cannon were
much distressed when they heard of it.
They pictured the general hurrying to
the front in a dark car with frost on
the windows of it. They could almost
hear his teeth chatter as he sat on his
baggage with his overcoat wrapped
about him and shifted his feet about
on a not brick he had thoughtfully

see him pull Oft one of his mittens to
