UNJUST DISCRIMINATION.

THE SALT LAKE CITY board OF
education seems to believe literally
in the theory that unto him that hath
shall be given" A few days ssace the
board adopted a rule n regard to the
illnesses Of principals and teachers.
Principals who are incapacitated for
duty are TO receive their full salary
Tor a period Of two weeks. High school
teachers viii receive fun pay for one
week and half pay for four weeks
Grade teachers viii receive nothing.
That is to say, grade teachers viii be
III at their own expense. OF course.
the board OF education has reasoned
this matter all out It's members
know that the grade teachers DO nos
teach in order 10 earn a living. Thes
work just for the fun of it. and nor
because they need the money. Their
ny is the smallest in the system. their
work is the hardest. The drudgery OF
educating the boys and girls is found IN
the lower grades. Naturally the sala-
ries are lower there.
When the grade teacher is ilI a sub-
stitute is employed at lower rate. SO
that the board actually makes money
by the Illnesses of grade teachers. The
system is manifestly unfair. We have
no objection to letting the principals and
the high school teachers have then
pay for a time during periods OF Ill
ness. but why should not all be treated
alike? Why this discrimination against
the grade teachers? Are they not as
faithful as the others? Do they nos
work as hard. or harder? They GER
tainly are as faithful and there is no
doubt that they work very hard for
Very small pay.
A grade teacher can afford to be III
no better than a principal or a High
school teacher. The average grade
teacher is unable TO save anything FOR
such contingencies. 1t is TO be hoped
that the board viii promptly adjust this
matter on an equitable basis. The fun.
damental principle Of good government
and Of all branches Of any good govern
ment is equal rights to all, special
privileges to none"

BREAKFAST FOOD
How Bauer PLAYED.

To appreciate this story it must be
stated at the outset that the cheerful
character in it had never been known
TO buy drink or TO refuse a drink
since he came TO Salt Lake three wears
ago. and he drinks frequently He has
bought two drinks now. and how he
came. to make the purchase is the
story.
AS per custom he had tackled on 10
a friend and had partaken OF two beers
az his friends expense At this point
the friend concluded TO shut OF on him
and announced that ne had no more
money. "Oh, that's all right" said the
cheerful one. I'm not thirsty anv

REALLY LIVELY POLITICS.

II ONE PEOPLE THINK we have
Il fairly lively political battles il,
Utah. And We do have reasonably
lively struggles for supremacy. inside
the great parties and between them.
But our fights become entirely tame
and Insignificant when we compare
them with battles waged elsewhere. An

West Virginia Republicans are going

At Huntington the other day a con-
vehtion was held TO elect delegates to
a state convention which is to nominate
a Republican candidate for governor.

faction and J. B. Ballard was leader

IN only seven Of the counties of Ee-r
Virginia have the Republicans held
their conventions. but already eleven
men have been killed, so hot is the
fight between the two leading candi-
dates for the nomination for governor
Now an effort is to be made bv the
Republican state committee to induce
both men TO withdraw and let some
peaceable candidate have the prize.

action taken in the interest of marry

is that they fear II things go on as thev

FILIPINos DESERVE DOG.

I He INVESTIGATION into the affairs
Of the meat trust promises to be
forgotten by the public in the trouble
being stirred up by and for the Filipin-
% at the St Louis exposition over a
meat question that is peculiarly their
own. Some days ago the dispatches
contained the announcement that the
FiiipinOs had struck for dog meat. In
their native land they were fond OF
succulent dog saddle, dog spare ribs,
dog chops and dog outlets, besides 9th
er forms Of dog. They didn't seem to
like the ordinary meat of civilization
supplied TO them at. the exposition.
The authorities in charge Of the Fill
ipino exhibit then gave It out that
they would secure plenty of dogs from
the city dog pound for their charges.
l. never occurred to anybody that the
least objection would be raised. The
Filipinos were pining for dog The
homeless. masterless, tax-dodging dogs
Of st. Louis would fill the void But
the authorities overlooked a certain
humane society in s. Louis This
society has entered vigorous
protest against filling the Filipino
stomachs with good old dog.
No final decision in the matter has
vet been reached and the islanders may
be compelled to subsist on lamb chops.
sweet breads, porterhouse steaks and
other heather meats for an indefinite
period. Really it is hard to understand
why any protest was entered against a
dog diet for the Filipinos. We are fond
Of calling this a free country. Can it
be said TO be free country when man
is denied the right 10 eat dOg2 DO not
our Chinese friends enjoy rat pie from
time to time?
The humane feature is hardly worth
considering. The homeless dogs that
get into the st. Louis pound are chloro-
formed or smothered Then their bod
les are cremated. Would il be any
more painful for them to be scientific
caily butchered? Besides. they would
even be given few more weeks of
life, for they would be fattened special
~ for the table. Come to think about
it. it is actually more humane to feed
the dogs to the Filipinos than to kill
them in the old way and feed their bod
les into an unappreciative furnace.

INTERESTING PAPERS.

HE AMERICAN PHILOSOPHICAL
SOCIETY held a meeting in Phil
adelphia the other day and talked about
the things that are really worth while.
SO often organizations Of that eharac-
ter meet and discuss matters that are
Of interest only to their members. They
do not take up the live topics of the
hour. topics in which the public is deep
~ interested and on which il desires
more light. We feel, therefore. that the
American Philosophical society is en-
titled to congratulations on its latest
gathering.
1t is most unfortunate that no news
paper has printed detailed reports Of
the speeches and proceedings. Perhaps.
though. this is because the meeting was
held IN Philadelphia. A suspicion is
current, YOU know, that things that
happen in Philadelphia happen so slow
~ that one can cut in any time and
keep up without the least trouble. In
order that the local public may know
what it has missed we publish some of
the titles Of the papers read:
Sources Of Error in the Determine
ton of the Atomic Weight of Nitrogen"
by Professor Theodore W. Richards.
There is a thrill and heart interest
touch about that title that cannot fail
TO impress every reader. Long. long
have we wanted to know about that
very thing. We knew. Of course. that
errors were being made constantly in
determining the atomic weight of nitro
gen, but we never knew what the
sources OF the errors were. Unfortun-
ately, alas. we never will know. for no
part of Professor Richards paper has
been published.
Then came 'Dimethyl Racemic Acid:
It's Synthesis and Derivatives" The
average boy would rather read and
study that paper that the best story
oliver Optic ever wrote. And yet the
essay was not printed in any newspa-
per Isn't it strange that newspaper
publishers would rather print stories
about elopments and murders and poll
teal caucuses and things like that than
details of original research into dime
thyl racemic acid.

B A r R

w. L. Bruce, civil engineer,
of Yankton, who has the contract
for the Tabor water works sys-
TEN, was in the city the fore part
of the week laying the founda-
ton for the big steel tower locat-
ed at the foot Of Main street, just
north Of the depot. The founda-
ton consists of twelve stone piers
five feet square and five feet deep,
using two car loads Of Sioux
Falls stone. On the foundation
stands the 70 foot steel tower, on
top Of which is a 1900 barrel
cypress tank. In case Of fire this
tank holds water enough to furn-
ish two streams five hours. The
average fire lasts less than an
hour.
In addition to this ever ready
supply of water an eight horse
power Thompson & Lewis gaso-
line enigne will be installed with
a pump of sufficient capacity to
keep the tank full all the time,
even during the progress Of a
fire. The pump throws about
three barrels of water a minute.
The water supply comes from a
we'll 100 feet deep. The water
stands within 3 feet of the top
of the we'll. The & inch cast iron
pipe for mains will run north on
Main street to the corner Of the
Catholic Church and will be con-
nected to FIVE double hydrantS
which will give ample protection
along the business section. The
contract price for the entire plant
is So, 300 and the contract is to be
finished by Dec. LIST 1904. About
IS men will be employed on this
work, as Mr.. Bruce wishes to rush
the plant to completion before
freezing weather. The ground
was broken Monday for the
foundation and two car loads Of
stone, three of steel and iron and
nearly two of lumber will arrive
this week for the construction
of the plant.
