fairy tale. The messenger said Presi-

Charge d'Affairs Lee at once dis
patched a note addressed to Gen.
Huertas at the barracks which soon
brought that gentleman to his senses.
The note said that in view of the
peaceful and pleasant relations ex-
listing between Panama and the
United States, and in view of Gen.
Huertas brilliant military record, it
was the hope of the United States
charge d'affairs that nothing was
about to occur to strain those re-
lations or tarnish that record. Mr..
Lee added Significantly that the cruis-

daybreak.

with the uneasy head of the presi-
dent from under cover.
Then, at a. m, the secretary of
state, who is also minister of war,
appeared at the barracks. The troops
were ordered out on parade. Huertas
and Guardia reviewed the uneven
lines together, as though nothing
seized the occasion to address the
soldiers and to inform them of his
position and of their duty to their
country. The breach was filled, for
the time at any rate.

hour later and sent word to me to

OCDEN-LUCIN CUTOFF.
Reduces Expenses Of Southern Pa
cif1c Company.

The Southern Pacific Company's Og-
den-Lucin cut-,ff across Great Salt Lake
has now been in operation long enough
to permit the operating department to
gather figures j%ustifying the expendi-
ture of the many millions which the big
Improvement cost.
The cutoff is saving the company on
an average SO $500 a day in operating G
penses, or a little more than $30O,O 900 a
year, and this amount will steadily grow
as the traffic over the Ogden line in
creases. Interest charges growing out
of the construction of the cutoff are
$780, 900 a year.
The operating officials of the Southern
Pacific are watching with much interest
certain experiments now being conduct
ed on the Union Pacific with the use oi
gasoline motor cars. The gasoline mo
tors are designed for use on spur lines,
and it is said that if they come up to ex-
pectations they will be employed on the
Southern Pacific as well as the other
Hartman lines.

CameIs for G0ldfeld.

The following, which probably origi-
mated in the fertile imagination Of a
"space filler" is now being extensively
copied by the State press:
Before long the old scriptural camel
will be used to carry provisions along
the desert to Goldfield. \ company has
been formed to capture camels which
abound near there and utilize them.
They are the ones used years q in Nir-
ginia City. The herd escaped and have
multiplied and many hundreds are now
roaming the deserts OF Nye and Esmer-
aida counties. The camels were brought
to Nevada in 1854, by Major Henry G,
Wavne, acting under orders from the
United States Government. 1t was
thought that they would be better than
horses, and they We're used for years in
in carrying wood from the mountains tc
the Virginia City mines and salt from
Washoe City to Virginia City. 1t is
said that they would carry a half a cord
of wood at a time and that in carrying
salt from Washoe City they would carry
800 pounds for a distance of 200 miles,
going an average of twenty miles a day"

hay. The outfit consists of two mule

immense freight wagons. The vehicles
are new and of the heaviest pattern,
having been built especially for service

nance for Salt Lake.

The announcement that the Salt Lake
route is prepared to handle passengers
and outfits bound for the mining camps
of Tonopah, Goldfield and Bullfrog, New.
is important to Salt Lake, says the Her
aid. 1t is important, a. we'll, to those
who are thinking OF going into the
camps from which so many tiattering
reports have lately been coming. An
advantage about going to Bullfrog, Gold
field or Tonopah, all OF which are close
together, by the new route, is the fact
that there il a good stretch of unprOs-
pected country between the railroad
and the camps.
Prospectors will leave the road at Las
Vegas and strike overland a distance of
1870 miles to Bullfrog, which is nearest.
Officials of the railroad advise that out
fits be secured in Salt Lake. Horses,
wagons and supplies can all be pur-
chased here and shipped at reasonable
rates to Las Vegas. From there to Bull
frog is a matter of only three or four
days travel by way OF Good Springs,
Manse and Ash Meadows or Montgom-
cry. There is plenty of first-class water
all along the route, so that those who
desire to take their time need have no
fear on this account.
Parties who have been over the route
pronounce it not only practicable, but
thoroughly comfortable. The virgin
territory makes it a specially desirable
way to go, for there is nc doubt but that
some first-class mines will be opened in
that section within the next few years.
The first men upon the ground are the
men that will get the desirable proper
ties. The Herald hopes that the good
fortune will fall to the Salt Lakers, and
it will if they take advantage OF their
opportunities.

BIG PROSPECTING OUTFIT
Five Teams and as Many Men Pull
Out for Nevada.

Five tea ms and rigs, with a man in
charge of each, completely outfitted for
a full winters campaign in the gold dis
tricts OF Nevada, pulled out from this
city at 5 o'clock Thursday evening tn
make the journey cross-lots over the
desert and through the Deep Greek
country, says the Salt Lake Herald.
This is the outfit organized and to be
handled by Lawrence =. Kimball, the
well-known liveryman OF this city and
Park City, who took the train for Tintic
last evening to join the caravan.
Mr.. Kimball has the expedition SO
well organized that it boasts a good
camp cook, a first-class blacksmith, as
sayer and other necessary talent to
carry on an intelligent campaign of pros
pecting through the country between
here and Goldfeld, and he hopes to
make the time count during the next 40
days. He has men in his party familiar
with every mile of the country to be
travelled and, with plenty Of grain for
his animals, tents, bedding, food and
medicines for his men, he anticipates
no trouble in getting through, even
though storms overtake him.
Once in the country for which he is
headed, Mr.. Kimball will dispose OF his
teams and rigs to the best advantage,
keeping only what he requires for his
own use in the land OF gold. He expects
to be CONT all winter and, if things come
out right, there is no telling when he
will return. No one is identified with
Mr.. Kimball other than his own close
business associates, and there are abso-
lutelv no strings on his movements.
This is probably the biggest single
outfit that ever started on Il prospecting
expedition from this State. Every man
in the party knows what it is to brave
the elements and every one OF them, Mr..
Kimball says, is a worker. He is IN
fdent of accomplishing something worth
his while, particularly as he will be in
good mineral country all the way, after
crossing the desert between Dugway
and the Deep Creek range of mountains.

THE HELPLESS PUBLIC.

lfiE HELPLESS PUBLlC.
The meat strike illustrates
the fact that the processes of
concentration aud combination
have not in the least interior
ed with the public's right TO
"be damned" conferred upon it
by the late Vanderbilt.
The packers are picking up a
good profit at advanced prices
on the meats they have in stor
age.
Provision dealers are exhibit
ing a foresight equal to their
regard for profit and are dispos
ing OF their meats in stock at
prices that place them beyond
want.
Retailers appreciate the stu
alton and are cheerfully safe
guarding their own interests.
The strikers, though losing
wages now, expect to get as
good thing out of it in the end
as the packers, dealers and re
tailers are getting now.
There is just one element
that is getting the worst of it
from every view point, that is
the innocent. disinterested pub
lie.
The public pays the freight
Every dollar of the increased
price of meats added to the
profits of packer, dealer and re-
taller comes out of the public.
In every aspect of this aud
every other great strike the
public is the innocent and injur
ed victim.
And is there no remedy?
Yes; and the remedy is com
pulsory arbitration.
The highest right is that of
the public. 1t has been ruth
lessly damned" long enough.
This country has become suf-
ficienty civilized to demand
some precautions for the con-
servatiou of public rights.
The course of the president
in forcing the great anthracite
strike to arbitration met with
the enthusiastic approval of tue
whole country. He esta blished
a precedent that should be-
come recognized as law in
every great strike.
Arbitration is the sovereign
remedy. If it is a fair settle
ment of their dispute that is
wanted by employers and
strikers, arbitration will give it
to them.
If trust and strikers do not
want fair settlement, the public
has right to demand it in it's
own interest and for it's own
protection.
