The Opening Of Navigation.

. Reports from Cleveland of the
fight between the Lake Carriers and
Masters and Pilots Associations
would indicate that the opening of
navigations no longer depended on
the time of opening of the Duluth
harbor or the St. Mary's channel,
but rather upon the date OF settle
ment OF the differences between the.
opposing forces. ..s...... q. .:
AT the last meeting of the con
testing factions on Saturday the
conference adjourned without any
arrangement for future meeting.
This means that commerce. ons.the

Works Well at Two ilarbors.

In commenting upon the recent
conviction and sentence of 500 i'm
posed upon a Hibbing citizen for
poisoning inarauding cows which
fed at his hay pile, the Two Harbors
News remarks thus of the applica-
ton and effect of the impounding
ordinance at that place.:
"For many years the good people
of Two Harbors were sorely tried by
marauding cattle. No fence was
high enough, no gate secure enough,
and no dog effective enough to keep
them out. The finer the lawn the
more active the trespassers. When
ever the pound was threatend, the
folks who look out for the other fel
lows, talked the poor mans cow and
the hardship which would result if
they we're run in for browsing in
gardens. Finally peoples patience
oozed all out, and they concluded
that troublesome cows were not en-
titled to better treatment than com.
mon drunks, and a cow policeman
was appointed and paid a good
salary. He impounded every amin
al but dogs and cats that were run
ming at large, and the result is most
satisfactory. Whenever cow cross
es the dead line she goes in until
the owner puts up the So necessary,
and the householders have removed
their fences, and thus escape the ex:
pense of maintaining them. 1t is
said that the recording angel whose
duty it was to enter the transgres-
Fsions of our GUESSING citizens has
since discharged his assistants, re-
placed with new ones the rusting
strings of his harp and has all sorts
of time for practice"

Keeping Up Waqes. ,

At the last regular meeting of the
board of county commissioners a

= Several weeks ago the Enterprise
called attention to the fact that at
our neighboring city of Eveleth an.
ordinance was under consideration
for the prohibition of the sale and:
use of the giant tirecracker and
other dangerous explosives IN the
city limits, and recommended a like
ordinance be passed in this city.
The matter was taken up, but has
apparently been dropped, although.
there still remains ample time for
the passage of an ordinance of this
nature and the enforcement of it's
provisions upon our coming natal
day. -. : . 49,. =. i
Virginia is one of the few import
ant towns. where such an ordinance
does not already exist and where
the fire cracker nuisance is tolerat-
ed without official protest. And
while there have been several acct
dents of a lesser nature recorded
here in the past fortunately there
have been no serious accidents as a
result of the fool and the fire crack
er operating together. In addition
to the recognized danger the giant
cracker is public nuisance, and if
the use of them is to be prohibited
upon the date of our coming cele-
bration it is now time for direct and
emphatic action in the matter, be-
fore our dealers stock up and are
left with lot of dead stock on their
hands.

RUssIA's wORLD TRAGEDY.

THERE IS SOMETHING PATHETIC
in the spectacle Of the car Of all
the Russias as he confronts war
abroad and anarchy at home. eorrup-
ton in his advisers and hostility among
the most powerful nations of the earth.
Defeat in Asia is bad enough, fneffici-
eney and dishonesty among admins
traitors is not to be faced without treDi-
dalton, but the knowledge that his own
people, his little Children as his sub
jects sometimes call themselves, exc
crate his rule and willingly face death
to avenge their wrongs on a man like
Won Plehve-that knowledge is enough
to crush even the strongest of czars- b.
Those who know him picture Nicholas
as man Of the kindliest nature, weak
possibly, swayed unduly by his sur
roundings, but never vindietive and al
ways solicitous for the welfare of his
people. Imagine his feelings in such
circumstances as have overwhelmed
him within the fortnight: his army in
retreat, harassed and defeated at every
stand: his empire open to attack from
within and without, his cabinet swayed
by a faction OF advisors who pTecipi-
tated war without preparation only to
face such a humiliation as has not con-
frOnted Russia since the Nap0leonic in
vasion, his most conspicuous minister
slain and the whole nation thrown into
a ferment of excitement and fear,
The tragedy has had few parellels in
all history, and on It's human side 1t is
more dramatic than any Unrolling
drama, since the French revolution.

TIME FOR. ACTION.

THERE IS DANGER that the peo-
L pie of Utah gay permi* the Amer
lean Mining congress to slip through
their fingers because Of overconfdence
or Indifference. The meeting Of the
congress in Portland is now but three
weeks of, so that it is high time for
those interested in bringing this in
stituti0n to salt Lake permanently TO
be up and doing. Strong men have
been named by officials and CONNER
ciaI bodies to look after the interests
OF Utah at the Portland meeting-men
whose names carry weight not only in
the business Of this state, but among
the men interested in mining through
out the entire country. This first step
was a wise one, and met with hearty
favor among all who are interested in
the p-building of the Industries of
the state.
The appointment of. these men should
be followed up now with a complete
organization Of all the forces that are
TO be brought into play on this propo-
sitiOn. II is the only way in which
success can be secured and the con-
Eress brought to Salt Lake. Judge
O. w. Powers has been designated to
present the claims Of salt Lake on the
floor OF the Portland convention. The
selection is a guarantee that this i'm
portant part of the work viii be well
done. But it takes more than talk to
secure good things in these days Of
hot rivalry among western cities.
Judge Powers should be backed up by
a compact body of men working in
perfect harmony and all pulling for
Salt Lake with all the power at their
command. If this is not done the
chances are that the permanent home
h of the American Mining congress viii
be lost 10 Utah.
What seems TO be needed at this
time is for the Commercial club or
some other body to take this matter
of organization in hand. map out a
definite campaign. and go after this
plum determined to get it. The ma
terial for waging a successful fight is
at hand. The location of Salt Lake
I'm the heart Of the mining district of
the west, the accessibility Of this point
by rail for mining men of the entire
west. the coming in Of three other
railroads, together with all the great
advantages Of salt Lake as a conven-
ton city-aH Of these facts presented
I'm the right way and by the right men
are certain to produce the proper re
suit. Just a little systematic work. a.
little local pride and a little Of the
pulI-together spirit viii bring the con-
gress to Utah; without these it VIII

COMING HOME TO RoosT.

TIGHT YEARS AGO at this season
l. Of the year there was a good deal
OF talk about the strikes and indus
trial disturbances which were agitat-
ing the country. It happened at that
time that Mr.. Bryan was running for
the presidency. With a unanimity as
remarkable as It was unfair. the Re
publican speHbinders attributed the
trouble to Mr. Bryan's candidacy.
Possibly some of Il was due to the dis
like felt for the great commoner by
eastern employers, and there IS no
question but that some of them cut
wages and created trouble to produce
sentiment against him.
This year there has been a duplics-
ton of the situation, but so far there
has been q remarkable silence among
Republican newspapers and orators as
10 the cause. There hasn't been even
a suspicion Of a suggestion that Judge
Parker's candidacy is responsible for
the strikes. If there has been any
uneasiness among employers following
the nominations. It has been due 10 the
distrust Of Roosevelt, which a good
many captains OF industry feel and
have felt There is a strong convic-
ton IN industrial circles that IL he is
reelected the roughrider president viii
no longer feel the restraints which
have been due to his desire for another
term. and 10 this conviction may be
traced no little Of the belief that the
conservative elements in both parties
viii be unanimously for Parker as
against Roosevelt
Nothing could have been unfairer
than the charge in 1895 that Bryan was
the cause Of the commercial uncertain
~ then Affecting business. It may be
equally unfair now to charge ROose-
Welt with the same responsibility. but
the argument in 1886 is rescting natur-
ally and legitimately against the very
men who were 50 ready to take advan-
tage of it eight years ago. The cam
paign chickens are coming home to
rOOst.

HATS OFF 70 suTTE

Il ERES HATS OFF to the Butte
Al golfers. They have not only
beaten the salt Lake team so decisively
there can't be any question about their
skill. but they have done it so pleas
antly and entertained their vanquished
guests so royalty that nobody begrudges
them their victory; and most Of Us are
glad they won because it insures a re-
turn visit from them and &. chance to
get even with them both in the game
and the hospitality.
The result Of the tournament shows
conclusively Just how plucky that
northern team is. A year ago it came
to Salt Lake and was beaten out Of its
boots. Did the players quit and give
up, Not for a minute They hadn't
started home before they had framed
up programme Of revenge which was
worked out to a finish. They brought
out corpulent gentleman to instruct
them in the game. Then they got down
to business, went into training and
pretty nearly sat up by moonlight to
practice. They didn't say much about
what they were going TO do 10 salt
Lake. but the way they polished off
our best players was almost scandalous.
If they hadn't put in a semi-profes-
sional for. Copp to beat we wouldn't
have got enough glory out of the match
to butter a sandwich with. They just
went in for wholesale slaughter and
have their lodge-pole adorned with
scalps to glory in all winter.
OF course, this doesn't settle the feud
by a good deal There viii be a return
match on the salt Lake course and
there won't be any foolishness about it
either The Salt Lakers will be ready
next time to make it about the hottest
contest that ever came off in this vicin-
ity- Incidentally, they win not forget
that there is a round Of festivities due
the Smoky City men when they come.
