We cannot urge too strongly the de-
STABILITY of large attendance from
Utah at FL Paso. The success of the
Congress. even without any attendance
from this state, is already assured.
Utah is not necessary TO the congress,
but the congress is necessary to Utah.
This is the home of irrigation. this is
where the desert was first made to
blossom under the benefcent effects
of water. But Utah can learn some
thing to it's advantage at Ell Paso.
In this state we know good deal
about irrigation. but we don't know
all there is to know Our common
wealth wants TO share in the benefits
of the national irrigation law. If we
do not show a proper interest in the
subject-and there is no better way of
showing our interest than by sending
a big delegation to Ell Paso-we can
not expect to be remembered when the
good things in national irrigation are
passed around.
Name your Delegates, you who are
entitled to name them, and see that
they go to Ell Paso.

T HE HERALD wishes all possible
L success to the movement for the
raising of a fund to insure the perma-
nency Of the Shepherd symphony Or
chestra. This orchestra is in no sense
a money-making organization. Its sole
purpose, and the sole purpose Of its
promoters is to foster a love for and
an appreciation of the highest grade
of orchestral music in this city. In
Chicago $4,000 was raised to guaran-
tee the permanency of the Thomas or
chestra.
Salt Lake is known throughout the
length and breadth of the land for its
music and its musicians. we are
known as people who love music, who
are good judges Of music and who are
always willing to support with enthu-
siasm high class musical attractions
and ventures. Is our reputation de-
served? In the light Of the expert
once some Of our musicians have had
we are inclined to answer the oues-
ton IN the negative. We are perfectly
willing for outsiders to believe we are
great people for music. but when music
costs US something we very often find
that we like it only at q distance.
An opportunity is now offered to
show our faith by our works. It is
not fair to expect a few men and wo-
men to bear all the expenses of a
symphony orchestra. The burden
should be distributed over many shout
ders. The Herald is 10th to believe
that first class orchestra cannot re-
ceive in Salt Lake support sufficient
10 warrant its maintenance. But the
only way to let the musicians know
that we do appreciate them is to con-
tribute literally to the orchestra guar
antee fund
1t is quite possible that the money
will not be needed. In that event
every dollar Of It Win be returned to
the donors. 1t is necessary, though,

A REPUBLICAN FRIEND wants to
Il know if we think Judge Parker's
indictment of Roosevelt for permitting
Chairman Cortelyou or his agents to
solicit campaign contributions from
the criminal trusts and monopolies was
proper. Only one reply to the ques-
ton is possible. 1t is an unqualified
affirmative. Certainly the criticism was
proper and fair. Moreover, it is justi-
fed by the record.
The facts are contained in history
of such recent date that everybody
viii remember them. 1t was Roosevelt
who insisted, over the protest of many
Republican leaders, on making Cortel-
YOU chairman of the national Repub-
lican committee. Cortelyou was sec
rotary of the bureau of commerce and
labor. He was in a position to inquire
infinitely into the affairs of every trust
in the country. Into the affairs of one
Of them. the Beef trust, he had been
specially directed TO inquire.
What has become Of the Beef trust
investigation? What has become of
other Investigations of like character?
1t will be said that Mr.. Cortelyou he's
not been secretary of the department
of commerce and labor for some
months, and that his successor has not
had time to look into those important
questions. But Cortelyou had an
abundance of time before he went out
of Office. Why didn't he use it to some
advantage?
Was it because he knew he was go
ing to be chairman Of the national
committee and that trust funds would
be needed in the election? Did Mr..
Roosevelt know before he appointed
Cortelyou as chairman that no man
would be in better position than Cor
telyou TO secure trust contribution?
To argue that he did not implies lack
Of perspicacity that we would hest
tate to attribute to the president.
And what of the announcement that
about the first of the year. if Roosevelt
is elected, CorteIyou viii succeed
Wynne as postmaster general? VIII
anyone say Mr.. Roosevelt doesn't know
of the close relations between the
postmaster general and the railroads
Of the country? Does not the president
know that the postmaster general has
two or three times as much patronage
at his disposal as any other cabinet
officer? Mr.. Roosevelt surely does know
these things.
Is it fair to hold Roosevelt response
bic for Cortelyou? 1t certainly is fair.
for Cortelyou is the creature of Roose-
welt. Without the consent Of Roose-
welt Cortelyou could do nothing. With
out Roosevelt's backing, Cortelyou
would be nothing.

PARkER's ELECTION PROBABLE

IS THE ELECTION of Judge Parker
l to the presidency of the United
States next Tuesday possible? We be-
lieve it is more than possible. To us
it seems. in spite of the wild claims
made by the Republican leaders, more
than probable. It is fact worth no
ticing that the Republicans. for all
their vainglorious boastings, are still
hard at work They will keep right on
working, too, until the polls are closed.
Why. if they are so sure to win. should
they continue to work?
1t is believed quite generally by con-
sentative observers that the Democrats
will carry New York If, in addition to
New York, they carry New Jersey,
Connecticut. Maryland and West Vir-
ginia. they viii be in first rate shape.
For. TO win the election they will then
only need either Wisconsin or Indiana
Or they can lose both Wisconsin and
Indiana and still win with Montana,
Colorado and Idaho This includes, OF
course. the sure Democratic states.
The Democrats have splendid
chance to carry either Indiana or Wis
consln or both. Lately Indiana has
been quietly transferred by the Repub-
lican managers to the list Of doubtful
states. Unless a flood OF Republican
money is poured out over Indiana the
state win go Democratic next Tues
day. Wisconsin is more in doubt on
the national ticket than most people
believe. Normally Republican, the
fierce factional fight now being waged
there may lose the state for Roosevelt.
Montana is practically sure for Par
ker, and so are West Virginia and
Maryland

&c success further, Harper's Weekly.
which cannot be accused Of Democratic
leanings. says:
IF the Democrats should lose New
Jersey, but carry New York, Connecti-
cut. Maryland and West Virginia. they
could win by receiving the votes OF MI
nois alone or Indiana and Wisconsin
together, or Indiana and California. or
the four states-Indiana, Colorado.
Montana and Idaho. If the Democrats
were TO lose New York. but carry MI
nois, they could win by carrying New
Jersey, Indiana, Connecticut, West vir-
ginia, Maryland. Colorado. Montana
and Idaho. If, however, the Democrats
lose New York and Illinois, it would
be necessary for them 10 carry Indi-
ana, Wisconsin, New Jersey. Connect
cut. Maryland. West Virginia. Colo
RADIO, California. Montana, Idaho and
Utah in order to elect their candidate. IS
It wiz not do for our Republican
friends to count too strongly on the
success OF Roosevelt.

It HE TWELFTH National Irrigation
L Congress is to assemble at FL
Paso, Tex, a week from next Tuesday.
IL does not seem to us that enough in

that the loss of a steamship was by
sinking, not by burning. making it
marine loss, against which fire insur-
aGce companies did not insure. 1t ap-
peared from the evidence that the
pilot of the boat was hanging on the
rudder just before the steamship went
down. and was asked by counsel:
What do you think the boat was
worth at the time you were holding
On to the rudder?"
Il really couldn't tell, sir"
But what do you think, sir?"
Il didn't think anything at all about
It,"

George w. Vanderbilt proposes to

the management of his estate. which
consists of a quarter of a million Of
acres of land and a hundred or more
different departments, including a
dairy, a truck garden, etc. When Mr..
Vanderbilt left Biltmore last spring
he was much dissatisfied with the
way things were going. He dismissed
several of the head employees who had
been coming up short in their ac-
counts. and ordered that some changes
be made. Recently Col. McNamee. his
manager, went to Seattle to look after
some of the Vanderbilt affairs there.

will remain in Seattle and that Mr.
Vanderbilt will look after his own af-
fairs at Biltmore. Mr.. and Mrs. Van

Faithful DOGS.

The faithfulness of the deg Is well
known, though not appreciated as It
should be. Perhaps most faithful Of
all the species is the Eskimo Gog.
We learn the following about this
animal from the writings of Frederick
Schwatka. who made a wonderful trip
on a sledge from Hudson Bay to the
Arctic Ocean The sledses were drawn
by the dogs. and he started out With
sixty of them, returning with only
nineteen, all the rest dying of starva-
tion en- route.
Says Schwatka:
'They were, through all this terri.
BILE time. perfect respecters of their
human allies, and the little children
used to go among them and play
with them by pelting them with toy
whips; yet the same dogs were starv-
ing, and should one of them die, his
comrades would eat him. | notice this
particularly. as some sensational writ
erS have tried to make their readers
believe that the Eskimo dogs are IL
nble to become dangerous fellows,
even to a powerfully built man, when
simply hungry, and to be worse than
wild beasts when ravenous. Any on
:laught of Eskimo dogs Is unknown
among the natives where Travelled.
1T was pitiable in the extreme to
see their sufferings, as they devotedly
helped us along-many of them up tod
the very minute they had to be taken
from the harness and abandoned along
the road. AS they dropped out along
the way, we harnessed ourselves in
their places to the sledse traces, and
It was thus we were not compelled to
leave certain parts of our load"
