The BEST sooK ON UTAH

JUDGE EDWARD I. COLBORN Of
this city has rendered valuable
service to the people of Utah in the
compilation OF a little book Just pub
iished for free distribution by the pas
senger departmental the Union Pa
cific Railroad company. The book is
entitled Utah, It's People. Resources.
Attractions and Institutions" Between
its covers IS condensed an amount Of
Information that could not be found
elsewhere without an endless amount
OF work and the expenditure Of much
tine
The object Of the book IS well set
forth IN Judge Colborn's modest intro
ductIon,i in which he says; 1T is in
tended that these pages shall truth
fully reflect the conditions. material
and otherwise, In Utah. and be a re-
liable guide TO those who are consider
ing investment or settlement in that
rich and rapidly growing state. The
plain truth about Utah's resources, .ad-
yantases and attractions is good
enough, and that only the book seeks
10 tell. The statistics given were OBJ
tanned from the most reliable sources
Of Information, and none Of the state
ments made have been Intentionally
touched with color. The desire is that
HE book may be Of value to the public
and to the state OF Utah"
The arrangement Of the book is ad-
mirable. It opens with a comprehen-
sive table Of contents. followed by a
history Of the state and a description
Of its geographical and physical fea-
lures The population according to the
last government census IS given by
cities. towns and counties
Naturally mineraiogy plays an i'm
portant part IN a work OF this kind.
People interested in this branch Of in
dustry viii have no fault 20 find with
Judge Coiborns book. OF the lis pages,
al told. thirty-seven are devoted TO the
mineral wealth OF the state. and uader
this head the Information is so con-
sIensod that little is left to be said. a
number OF valuable statistical tables

date add to the value Of this depart
! ment. A description Of the principal
mining districts and the principal mines
in each district is a feature that win be
appreciated by those desiring TO in
! vest
/ The drainage system Of the state and
the work that Is being done along the
lines Of irrigation occupies the impor-
/ tant place it deserves in the book. The
/ manufactures. commerce, agriculture.
! horticulture and stock raising Of the
state are. described and explained with
/ compact tables. In all these lines Utah
makes a good showing and many of the
figures VIII be surprising even to people
living il the state
It is perfectly natural that Judge Col
born should dwell on the climate Of
Utah for the reason that the book will
be distributed largely in the Mississippi
valley where the people are forced TO
endure the rigors Of extreme cold in
the winter, and are Frustrated by the
heat Of summer. II would be difficult
for any state in the Union to make a
better showing IN this respect than
Utah makes by the statistics presented
in this little book
The Indian reservations. the rail
roads. the school system, the religion
and the many attractions Of the state
are set forth in an attractive and in
structive way. The many resorts Of the
state are described under this last head.
The book closes with an article on salt
Lake that must be read to be fully ap-
preciated. In brief space the city is in
diligently described, ana mass of in
formation is presented that VIII make
the book one of value even TO people
living here in the city described

AN UNUSUAL SUIT.

4 RATHER UNUSUAL SUIT is
4 about to be instituted at Butler,
Pennsylvania. Tt was at Butler, read
ers OF The Herald viii remember, that
a terrible epidemic of typhoid fever
ragged last winter and during the early
months of the spring Although But
Ter is not a large city, there were 1900
cases Of typhoid and great many
deaths Now the survivors propose to
sue the water company for damages,
il having been shown tLat the cpl
demic was caused by impure water.
Is the company responsible?- We do
not pretend to a knowledge of the legal
phase Of the question, but morally and
ethicaIly the company is surely re-
sponsible. Would a druggist who seId
drugs which ne declared to be pure
and which later brought disease and
suffering and death on the users be
liable for damages We are inclined
TO think lie would be responsible. The
Butler water company undertook to
supply the people there with pure
water. That it did not do so was
assuredly not the fault Of the people.
but OF the company.
The question that VIII arise at the
hearing viii naturally be as to wheth-
er or not the corporation knew it was
supplying the citizens Of Butler with
water that WAS loaded witE typhoid
bacili. If it did have such knowledge
1t would seem to be impossible for it
10 escape financial as wen as moral
responsibility But was it not the
DUTY Of the company to know that its
water supply was pure2 Can a man
who ignorantly sells an article that
causes disease and death escape re-
sponsibility because Of his ignorance2
In any event the progress of the
action and its outcome viii be watched
and waited with considerable interest.
If the verdict is against the company
1t Will make other water companies
very much more careful Of tEeir sup
ply. And the suit VIII be of benefit
for another reason. Tt viii at least
call the attention Of the general pub
lie TO the necessity for municipal own
ership Of municipal water supplies. In
no other way can water users be sure
that their interests wiz be carefully
safeguarded.

TAMMRNY AT WORK.

THE GREAT PARKER and Davis

O'Sullivan said that Tammany would

ANOTHER FOLK ACCESSION.

T HE LATEST ACCESSION to the
list OF supporters of Joseph w.
Folk in his candidacy for governor of
Missouri IS a rOck-ribbed Republican
newspaper, the Emporia kansas
Gazette. edited by William Allen
White After announcing a continu-
ance Of its belief in Republican princi-
pies generally. the Gazette says.
Because he has been proved hon
est and efficient Folk stands pre-emi-
nently the type of honest government
in Missouri. No other mans victory
no matter who he is, would be the re-
Duke of boodIing and corruption in
Missouri that Folks victory win be.
And no possible Republican could by
his election advertise to the world that
Missouri has determined to stand for
clean government as Folk viii adver-
tise it by his election.
Parties are means for good govern
ment and not It's ends. A citizen
should not belong" to a party. in the
sense that the partys action and
organization should bind him with a
silly prejudice TO vote for what his
good sense and his conscience tell him
IS wrong. @a A party organiza-
ton has no charter rights, if one may
use the figure, to have and to hold
human beings in slavery against the
best interests Of the state or nation
If every Democratic nominee in the
country had as good a chance for cleo
ton as Mr.. Folk-his chance SO nearly
approaches certainty as practically TO
eliminate chance-there wouldn't be a
Republican official in the land after
election day.
