NEWS FROM THE FRONT.

A NOTABLE EXAMPLE Of the rapid
L transmission of news from the
Russo-Japanese war, when there is any
news and when the correspondents can
get it by the censors, was furnished
sunday Several days ago. it viii be
remembered. the disappearance of the
Japanese fleet from Port Arthur was
reported The Russians and the rest Of
the world were wondering what had
become Of it. At 1:25 p. m. Sunday
that fleet turned up at VladivOstOk,
more than 200 miles from Port Arthur,
and began a bombardment OF this city.
At a little before noon on Sunday.
The Herald posted in its bulletin win
dow an announcement that the Japa-
nese feet was bombarding Vladivostok
That is to say. more than an hour.
according TO our time. before the bonn
bardment actually began, Salt Lake
people knew Of it, many thousands of
miles away. The difference Of some
thing like fourteen hours in time be-
tween Salt Lake and Vladivostok ac-
counts Tor this apparent discrepancy.
Reports from Russian sources indi-
cate that the Japs did very little harm
with their bombardment. -Four sailors
and one woman were killed and some
property was destroyed. but it is
claimed that the cost of the Russian
property destroyed is greatly exceeded
by the cost OF ammunition expended by
the japanese fleet. This may be true
and it may not. The japanese side is
vet to be heard.
Certainly, the japanese have shown
the remarkable mobility Of their fleet.
A dash Of ]. 200 miles by warships is no
small matter. When such a dash can
be made without the least intimation
Of IL reaching the enemy, the agility OF
the fleet is readily understood. The
war has progressed far enough to show
the immense superiority Of the Japs
over the Russians on the sea. If they
are able 10 hold their own on land as
well. it viii take Russia a long time to
carry out its indicated crushing policy.

DELAYING uIwTAH OPENING.

THE HERALD desires TO call the at
tention Of those who have been ex-
pecting TO secure land on the Uintah
reservation next fall 10 the fact that.
in all probability. the reservation will
not be thrown open 10 entry until a
year from next October. A bill post
poning the opening has already passed
the house of representatives and it will
almost certainly pass the senate, as no
opposition to its passage win be Of
fered.
The delay is made necessary because
it seems impossible to finish the sur
veys by the date originally set. After
the surveys have been completed the
allotments of land to the Indians must
be made and this process. it is stated.
viii require a considerable period OF
time. It is very unfortunate for Utah,
too, that the delay has been Occasioned.
For a long time citizens of this state
and of other states have been looking
forward 10 the Uintah opening.
II is a fact generally known that on
the reservation are some of the finest
agricultural and grazing lands in the
state. Thousands of acres of this land
now entirely unproductive. or practical
ly so because Of the primitive Indian
method of farming, viii become prodUc-
tive as soon as the land is settled upon
by white hOmesteadeTs. To the taxing
values Of the state viii be added wealth
that is difficult to estimate. To the pop
ulation will be added large numbers of
bona fide settlers who viii cheerfully do
their part toward the upb1ilding of the
commonwealth.
The delay is none the less exasperat-
ing because it seems necessary. The in
terror department has been even slow
err in this matter than government de-
parments proverbially are. If the mat
ter Of those surveys and allotments
had been in the hands of private cor
poration it is unbelievable that there
would have been so much procrastina-
ton. AS it is we must bear il with as
much patience as we can muster, know
ing that until the private interests
which are said to a large extent TO be
responsible for the interior depart
ment's puttering policy are served, the
public viii have no chance whatever.

wAKEFUL MR.. HsRPIM.

A LBERT HERPIN, a resident Of
a Trenton, n. J.. tells a story that is
hard 10 believe. Mr.. Herpin declares
that he is not acquainted with ma
lures sweet restorer." and that he has
not been acquainted with it for a rum
Der of years. Briefly, Herpin claims that
he never sleeps. In a story about Her
pin published in New York paper. it
is said that several physicians who
have treated him for insomnia, bear out
his story. but their names are not
given. This is what Herpin says:
Il go home at night. do not sleep.

refreshed as il ] had slept through the

they attempted TO drug me in order TO
produce sleep. but / would not undergo
that sort of treatment. have given up
any idea of sleeping for the rest of my
life. IN fact, L am so used to IL that
think no more about the matter. L have
neard OF people going insane when trOu-
bled with insomnia. but i never will. as
am well and hearty and can eat three
meals a day every day in the week
Most Of US are cross and half sick if
we don't sleep very well for two or
three nights. Think of going without
sleep entirely for ten or fifteen, years,
BY all ordinary rules of living Herpin
should have been dead several years
ago. And softly in your ear. we be-
iieve he would have been dead if, as he
says, he hasn't slept.

WHERE THE SOUL GOES.

A P. SINNETT, in his magazine,
4 h Broad Views, advances some
unique and original ideas relative to the
effect of death on the human soul. So
positive are Mr.. Sinnett's statements
that we are inclined almost to believe
that he has actually died and then
come back to tell US all about his ex-
periences- For example, he says:
THE experiences that come on first
when a human soul is emancipated
from the prison of the flesh are not of
a very exalted order. AS conscious
ness fades from the physical vehicle it
carries with 1t the finer sheath of
astral matter which has interpenetrated
the coarser physical vehicle during life.
and in this ethereal, but quite material
envelope, it exists for time in the
region commonly called the astral plane
con the astral plane the soul, in a
vehicle of consciousness which is insus-
ceptible to heat or cold, incapable of
fatigue, subject to no waste. and, there
fore, superior TO the necessity of taking
food, continues an existence for a vari-
able period which in many of its as
poets is so like the life just abandoned
that unrestricted people who pass over
constantly find it impossible TO believe
that they are what is called dead But
that state Of things, though. as it grows
familiar. and as the field of view is en-
Iarged. may be agreeable enough, and
may be associated with a renewal of
friendships and affections, interrupted
for time by death, but it is not the
state Of things that corresponds to the
heaven of religious teachings"
No Ifs" or lands" or butts" about
that statement Mr. Sinnett writes as
would a traveller who has just returned
from a journey he wishes to describe
for the benefit of the untraveled. He
seems to know what he is talking about
but we don't know how he knows.
though we would like very much to
know. If he has Travelled in that zen
velope" of his through space, meeting
and discoursing with souls in other
envelopes. he ought to say so fatty
and plainly. so there could be no mis-
understanding about it.
In the absence, therefore. Of affida-
Wits or other testimony, most Of us Will
continue TO believe as we individually
please about what happens to the soul
after it. becomes separated from the
body

FRAUDS IN VOTING.

4 GREAT MANY NEWSPAPERS
a are commenting sarcasucalIy on
the fact that some Of the frauds that
caused the resignation of Congressman
sbafroth OF Colorado were committed
by women voters. Opponents OF suf-
frage for women find in this story an
opportunity for argument against the
principle. They are even saying that
women haven't as fine a sense of honor
as men.
While we believe the stories Of the
frauds committed by women voters in
Colorado are greatly exaggerated, we
are willing for the sake of argument
to admit that they are all absolutely
true And still they don't prove any
thing as regards the right or wrong of
woman's suffrage. Should all men be
deprived of the right TO vote because
some men are guilty OF ballot frauds

election IN this country. the great ma
