The outlook.

Cardinal Newman held that the
growth OF tolerance. the wider and
keener sympathy between men OF all
religious faiths and men Of no faith,
which Is characteristic OF the last 80
years, was In many ways a very I'M
wholesome tendency; and sincere relis-
ous men have declared that II was bet
ter to have intensity Of feeling, even
when that feeling rose to the point OF
persecution, than to have the tolerance
which comes from laxity and lndIffer-
ence. That Is not, however, the true
Interpretation OF that modern breadth
Of view which recognizes the validity
Of all sincere effort to live the true life;
a tolerance based not on indifference
nor on the effacement Of fundamental
distinctions, but on that larger and
wider acquaintance with one another
which has compelled men to recognize
the fact that saints are to be found In
all religions that good men exist in
every civilization, and that there are
certain interior ties which bind to-.
gether the just and true OF whatever
racial descent or religious afflllation.

"Mormons," falling otherwise to excite
public interest in her work, has pre-
tended to have received threatening
letters about blood atonement" and
similar nonsense from Mormon

tlrely mythical or have been prepared

GREAT WATER PROJECTS.

II ia gratifying TO see the Interest
which Is being taken in the subject OF
water supply for this intermountaln re-
gion. The agitation of the Utah lake
project has stirred up inquiry as to
other measures needing government aid,
which have been contemplated for some
time but have not been presented In de-
tail or even explained before
The appointment Of the arid land rec
lamatlon fund commission by the gov
ernor. under the Utah act of March IL,
1908, was very timely proceeding The
chairman, Engineer A. r. poremus, and
the attorney Of the board, +. s. Rich
ards, are both thoroughly familiar with
the water question In all Its details,
and they have worked together for
many months devlsing means for the
utilization Of the sources OF supply In
the mountains. not only fer irrigation
necessary TO the reclamation OF arid
and seml-arld areas, but for the raising
OF the volume OF the Great Salt Lake.
The irrigation act OF 1908 was pre-
pared under their immediate direction;
the Utah lake project was urged by
them and It's feasibility made plain, and
the scheme for the stra wberry valley
reservoir and the diversion OF the Du-
chesne river TO Increase the water OF
Utah lake, and also the plan for draw
ing from the Snake river surplus waters
into Bear river. for increased supplies
on lrrlgable lands and a greater flow
into the Salt Lake are among the meas
ures which they have presented to the
authorities at Washington.
The carefully prepared plans and the
steps that have been taken IN these
directions have met with cordial re-
ception at the scat OF government, and
we may safely anticipate official action
and national aid. In the accomplishment
of these beneficial purposes, 1t is re-
ported that Senator Kearns will intro
duce bin to provide for the building
OF canal to connect the Snake and
the Bear rivers, providing the State Of
IdAho viii agree.
The Utah lake project has been
strengthened greatly by the united ef-
forts OF the water-users to forward 1t,
and prospects are bright for the sue
cess Of the plans, which Messrs. Rich
ards and Doremus are in Washington
TO explain and urge upon the admins
tration on the increase Of the water
supply for this State depend many great
undertakings that are in view, and II is
the hinge upon which win turn the
door to open the magnificent future OF
Utah and adjacent regions.

The rigid rules Of the Methodlsts were
formulated at time when theaters
were OF low character compared with
