Russian Scheme of Warfare.

An occasional Paris correspondent in
Vladivostok sends letter on the far
Eastern situation which describes the
Russian scheme of warfare, 1t says in
part:
"War is considered absolutely inev-
liable, although the actual situation Of
our troops and our fleet is far from
satisfactory.
"Our war scheme is such that 10 case
of campaign on land the administra-
tion will be far more important than
actual military action, but Admiral
Alexeitf hopes still that the naval
campaign will result in the destruction
OF the greater part Of the Japanese navy
aud thus bring about decisive result
even before the landing of japanese
troops in Manchuria.
IL do not remember il you know
anything about those marvellous new
torpedoes upon which the Admiral's
confidence is based but in st. Peters
burg there has been a great deal of
discussion about them and | think in
Japan they are as we'll aware Of the
matter as here.
These torpedoes are constructed on
the plan Of the little boat exhibited last
year in Berlin, which could be steered
in any way by an electric apparatus
outside the basin in which it was
running,
Thus these torpedoes may be steered
aud blown up at the right moment
from ship or the shore. They are a
kind of wireless telegraph | do not
know how far we can rely on these
curious engines, but am quite sure, if
tDey prove as effective as naval officers
told me, they would make a naval war
impossible in the future, and the
japanese feet will be destroyed, in spite
OF It's superiority 10 the first battle, or
even from the shore when besieging
Port Arthur.
ain this case the war will be finished
at once,
"If the torpedoes prove Ineffective
Admiral AIexeitf's plan is the following
The Korean frontier will be strongl,

= BAD SYSTEM.

COMETHING IS RADICALLY wrong
- about the system that makes it
possible for a badly injured man to re-
main for two hours at the Salt Lake
police station without medical atten-
ton Marion Kesler, 81 years old, was
taken TO the police station early Tues
day evening with broken arm and
minor injuries sustained through a fall
As soon as he arrived there an effort
was made to call Health Officer stew
art, who is paid by the city to look
after such cases.
Dr. Stewart, as has very often hap
pened before. could not be found Then
DR.. G. NJ. Benedict YVES called in Only
little while ago DR.. Benedict was
called in a similar case and the council
refused 20 pay him for his services on
, the plea that the city is already paying
one physician. Tuesday night Dr. Ben
edict asked Mayor Morris if he would
authorize him to take care of Kesler.
The mayor had TO such authority and
so notified DR.. Benedict. Then the doc
tor communicated with COuncilmen
Preece and Hartenstein. and they, too.
refused 70 act. for lack of authority.
Thereupon DR. Benedict refused to
treat Kesler. From the humanitarian
standpoint DR.. Benedict is perhaps open
TO criticism, but it is hardly just e. ex-
pect him TO work for the city without
receiving any pay. Nor is it exactly
lair to place all the responsibility at
the door Of DR.. Stewart, although on
numerous occasions it has been fmpos-
sible for the police 10 find him when
he was very badly needed The city
health officer is hardly paid enough
money 60 warrant him in abandoning
his practice entirely in order that he
may hold himself in readiness at all
times to answer police emergency calls.
II was two hours before Dr. Stewart
was located Tuesday night. and during.
that time Kesler suffered much need
less pain. The system is wrong. rad
ically wrong. II the, health officer can
not be found it should be possible TO
call in another physician and TO deduct
from the salary of the health officer
tho amount of the special physicians
bill Il has been suggested that the
city should pay for these extra services
but We make the point that If the health
officer was sure another would do his
work Without cost to him he might
consistently neglect his work
The solution OF the problem seems 10

ordinance. if necessary. requiring the
city health officer 10 pay the bills Of
special physicians whose services are
rendered necessary when he cannot be

KNOWS A GOOD THING.


THE DENVER MINING REVIEW
L knows a good thing when it sees
one. The editor of the Review was in
salt Lake some weeks ago. While here
he paid a visit TO the University OF
Utah for the special purpose OF look-
ing into our State School Of Mines. OF
what he found there he says, in the
last issue Of the Review:
The Utah School of Mines Is becom-
ing one Of the best equipped schools of
the west for the practical instruction
Of mining. Recently, while in Salt
Lake. we saw a very excellent equip-
ment whereby the students might
thoroughly and practically solve for
themselves the problems in ore con-
centration and dressing that may con-
front them in practical life"
After describing some Of the equip
ment at the school the editorial con-
tinues:
"rhe Utah people are to be congra tu-
lated on having a legislature wise
enough to provide sufficient money to
adequately equip its school OF mines.

trained men are developed for carrying

efforts Of Utah TO produce mining en-

a CALENDAR CURIOSITY.

a NALOED CORRESPONDENT asks
The Herald 10 answer a question
that has been causing him considerable
thought. He wants to know why Feb
ruary had twenty-nine days this year
and not four years ago in 1900 As the
answer win probably be of interest to
a number OF other readers of The Her
aid we believe it should be made as full
as possible.
Under the Gregorian rule Of inter
calation--we work under the Gregorian
calendar-every year Of which the num-
Der is divisible by four without a re-
nainder Is q leap year except the CEN
turial years. These latter are leap
years when they are Invisible by 400
without a remainder. Thus the last
centurial year in which February con-
tanned twenty-nine days was 1000. The
next viii be 1000 This is by direction
Of Pope Gregory XIII. author of the
GregOrian calendar
Gregory ordered, in 1882, the suppress
sion of ten days in the calendar. This
was to restore the equinox to March p,
il having refrigerated under the Julian
calendar to March II. Then he ordered
the February intercalations omitted on
all centurial years except those divisi-
bic, as stated, by AGO without a remain
der. Now in only one centurial year in
four does February have twenty-nine
days. In the Julian calendar every
year Invisible BY four is leap year
so that the difference between the
Julian and Gregorian calendars is now
twelve days. From 1900 to POO. inclu-
sive, another day win be gained under
the Julian, making the difference thir-
teen days
The old church calendar was founded
ON the erroneous superstition that every
year contained S65iA days. It could not
long continue to preserve its CORE
spondence with the seasons ard the
difference was remarked as early as the
year 80 by Bede. Five centuries later
the divergence of the equinox from
March y amounted to seven or eight
days. and was pointed out by John of
SacrobOsco. It was not until 1874. how
ever. that the matter OF calendar refor-
nation assumed definite shape.
Pope Sextus " took 1t up with Regi-
omontanus. the most celebrated astroE-
omeT of his time. but RegiomOntanus
died shortly thereafter and nothing fur
Their was done until the following cen
tury, when Pope Gregory Mi set Luigi
Lilo Ghiraldi of Naples to work out
n new-and permanently satisfactory
calendar. The result is what we know
az the Gregorian calerlar. tt is in use
in all Christian countries except Rus
STA. which continues to use the Julian
calendar.

MEAT TRUST INVESTIGATION.
THE HOUSE CoAIAuTTEE ON inter

THE HOUSE COMMITTEE on inter-
state and foreign commerce has
agreed to report favorably the resoIu-
ton introduced some weeks ago by
Representative Martin of South Dako-
"a, which provides for an inquiry into
the methods of the meat trust. The
resolution has been so amended as to
turn the investigation over to the new
department. OF commerce and labor It
is very much to be hoped that the in
quiry will be thorough and searching
and if it = something ought to happen
TO the meat trust.
Representative Martin wants 70
know, for example. why beef on the
Eoof should be SO cheap and beef that
IS dressed so expensive. II the investi-
cation Is made in earnest he is likely
10 find out ANY raiser OF cattle will
ten Mr. Cortelyou. or whoever is
designated TO conduct the investiga-
tion, that the meat packers are tied
together in the tightest kind of a COM
pact. Tn price offered by the buyer
FOR one packer is the price offered by
the buyers for all the other packers.
An agreement is reached every day
ON the proposition as &c what should
be paid that day for beef on the hoof.
And that price is paid whether the
cattle owner likes it or not. He can
take 1t or he can refuse to take it.
Those are his only alternatives. Ger
tainly he cannot hope to get any more
FOR his cattle than the price offered
him by the first buyer he meets. But
cattle become much more valuable
after they have been converted into
dressed beef. II IS natural that dressed
beef should be worth more per pound
than beef on the hoof. but the differ
ence created by the packers Is entirely
unnatural
II il were made impossible for the
meat trust TO continue in business as
a trust-and it should be-there would
be very much less disparity between
dressed cattle and cattle in the rough.
There would be something resembling
competition. which is not the case to-
dag. As &c is with the seller. so is II
with the buyer. 30 butcher or restaur-
ant proprietor i'm Salt Lake City who
handles meat dressed IN the east can,
but it is a fraction Of a cent a pound
cheaper from one packer than from
another.
II is absurd TO say that Il costs every
packer as much TO dress beef as il
costs every other packer. Some must
have better facilities than others, and
there wo-zld be competition If the pack
ing business were conducted within
the strict spirit OF the law.
