In Justice Court.

Business has been SO dull in
Judge Johnston's court of late
that he has quit smoking l5c CT
CARS and drinking champagne, and
gone back to beer and his old cob
pipe. He was softly whistling
so, What a Man | Might Have
Been" and looking dreamily out
into space. when the Sun scribe
tackled him for news.
Not a dod-gasted thing this
week, except q little civil suit
and the Judge showed the docket
toward the scribe in such a par
ticularly vicious manner that a
yellow dog, lying by the side OF
the table, hastily got out of reach
of His Honor's No. 9 shoe.

PHILOSOPHICAL NOTES.


This is an age of utility. We con.
stant!y ask what good is going to
arise from this or that line Of con
duct. Men are no longer measured
by their heredity but by what they
can do. In education we constantly
ask what practical use can the child
make OF this or that line of study for
getting the law that what strengthens
the faculties along one line adds
strength to all the faculties Of the
mind.
The religions of the world in one
form or another give u4 reasons why
they should be followed. The one
with which We are most familiar of
ters MS an eternity of JOY in heaven.
This heayen. IL more or less material
lstlc IN the various minds of its be
levers. Theosophy differs from
these. No cut and dried belief is
laid out for any one. We grow by
stages of our evolution into wider and
wider knowledge. At IA certain stage
of evolution the reward of heaven
and punishment of hell are necessary
spurs 10 hold before the sluggish
mind: but after awhile it arouses
from Its lethargy and does the right
for the nights sake, chooses the path
OF holiness because it is holy, not be-
cause of him who treads it. A study
of Theosophy affects our attitude 20.
wards the world, towards our fellow
man, and towards death. 1t gives us
a new view of life in all its phases

Should Plan to Retire Gracefully.
Some Of the republican newspa
pers in the state are real angry because
other papers differ with them on the
question as to who shall he nominal
ed for governcr. This is just what
the democrats have been working for
and a fight OF this character will not
re Of benefit to any one, except the
democratic party. Cut 1t out gentle
men, and let the state convention
nominate the candidate. The peo'
pie are not going to let any person,
or combination force a candidate
down their throats, aud anyone at
tempting such a proceeding will be
turned down most beautifully in the
convention. 1t might be good poll
cy for these same papers to begin
TO plan a way to gracefully retire at
ter the "other fellow has been nom.
mated, for there's many a slip

Improving Cow Creek Lane

The Encampment T~ransporta-
ton Company is doing some very
much needed work in Cow creek
lane, and on the hill just north of
the crossing of that stream. They
are grading down the steep hill
which is encountered coming
north, and hauling the dirt into
the lane beyond, raising the grade
there above the food waters of
the creek and also above the seep-
age from the irrigation bitches
on either side of the lane. The
Company is employing a number
of men and teams in the work and
when they have finished Cow
creek lane will be "A permanent
highway above high water mark.

No matter how much w may de-
cry the practice of polygamy, and re-
pudiate the right of any people TO
practice it in the United States, one
cannot help but admire the manly
stand taken by President Smith in
his testimony at Washington in the
Smoot case. He has come out open
ly, shouldered the blame and given
the reason. No matter what may be
done in the future concerning its
suppression, we owe it to the honesty
of President Smith that the eyes OF
the world have been opened to the
relation which p~olygamy holds to the
Mormon Church.

Thinks Chats Chances are Bright.
Governor Chatterton's chances for

AT any rate, the contest for nomina'

tiers our entire conception of what
lies beyond death. Its study makes
AN enormous difference in the way in
which we regard the trouble aud the
sorrows of life.
1t teaches three eternal truths
which may be given in three sen
fences: "First: That God is good;
that is to say that the great underlying
Principle which stands behind all,
and energies all, Is eternaily benefi-
cent and is always working for the
good of those who come forth from
Him.
Second: That Man is immortal:
that he is n creature who is ever
evolving, aud whose power and glory
will in the future have no limit; ii
being before whom opens II vast ev-
|olutiuu which no words can describe
to us now, so we have sown in the
past: hat there is an eternal law of
justice and of equilibrium which OPP
crates in just the same way on the
higher and spiritual planes as it does
down here on the physical plane;
which is just as true Of moral on
siderations as it is of mechanical
movements and in physics
These truths may be silent for
want of speech but whether they be
spoken OF whether they be silent they
are eternaIlytrue. A kLowlrge of them

A RUSSIAN OFFICERS OPINION.
Nc Soldiers In the World Could
 Withstand the Japanese.

New Chwang, June 21.-A Russian officer who was wounded at the battle of Vafangow (Telissu) told press cor respondent that the losses on both sides were severe. He says the Rus sian casualties were at least 1000. He says no soldiers in the world could have withstood the Japanese as they have been fighting lately Their ar tilleYy fire, he claims, is marvelously effective. The Russians fought stub bornly, desperately but were unable to withstand the enemy's dashing per sisteney Several hundred wounded Russians have been sent north, owing to a lack of hospitals and surgeons.
 All the available transportation has been used for supplies at the expense of the sick and wounded The Japan ese buried most of the Russian dead after the battle. It is estimated. upon information obtainable. that the Jap anese force moving northward is TO- 900 strong. with 90.000 men in the az gregate engaged in the operations at Port Arthur Several Japanese spies have recently been captured a few miles south of New Chwang. The Rus sians are becoming more vigilant. and are watching newspaper messages closely.
