III solid and substantial manner Assessed valu-
alton of property in the state for 1908 is stated to
be $12S,00000O. For the previous year it was
S1100O0,00O, showing increase of an assessed
valuation for the year of $10000O00. This increase
represents almost wholly improvements ON proper
ty, and as such improvements are assessed at not
to exceed 6ne-thrd of their actual cost the actual
increase in value was $30000OOO OF this increase
Salt Lake City's share was $12 100000 This means
that much additional cash increase of wealth, ex-
cepting what was borrowed ON mortgages with
which to make improvements. The total amount
of mortgages recorded for the year in the entire
state was $7,36S,000. The mortgages paid off dur
ing the year amounted to $4,O6S,oOO making net
increase of mortgage Indebtedness from the in
crease of values would leave net increase in values
of $27,0O0,O00 in the state.
In Salt Lake county the net increase in mort
cages amounted to 100000 which, deducted from
the net increase i'll values, leaves an actual in
crease In the wealth of the county of $11OOO0OO.
This increase is chiefly in Salt Lake City, where
hundreds of new homes have been built business
blocks, factories and other buildings erected. It
shows that for every dollar borrowed ON mortgage.
ten dollars went into improvements This is
showing which community may well be proud of
and it is doubtful if any other state in the Union
has made much proportionate advancement in
material wealth during the same period

The school agitation in Canada seems to be
reaching the boiling point The major portion Of
the New Freeman of Saint John n B. of April
Sth, Is devoted to the publication and discussion of
debates i'll and out of parliament relating TO Ibis
question: A sensation was sprung by published
Interview with one Rogers connected with the gov
ernment of Manitoba, III which he alleges the
existence of conspiracy between Premier Laurier
and Monsignor Sbarreti, Papal ALLOCATE, for the
purpose of "dragooning" Manitoba into granting
the Catholics of that province separate schools.
This man Rogers makes some ugly charges against
the gentlemen named and is particularly vitupera-
tive and acrimonious in his attack upon the
Premier.
The conservative members of parliament as was
TO be expected, seized upon the opportunity thus
afforded them to harass and castigate Laurier II
would seem, however, from the debate in parliaA
ment, which the New Freeman publishes with seem
lngy admirable fairness, that the attempt to make
political capital by appeal to religious preiu-
dlces' on the part of the opposition, has proven,
boomerang. Rogers animus is clearly shown TO
be one OF mingled demagogsm and bgotry, whilst
his methods SAVIOR strongly of reprehensible men

VI the truth that women are prone to follow

admonltlons this community has had another
striking confirmation recently. To hear of women
locking to the unhallowed shrine of spirituastic

iy suspect that it is foolish or wicked so to do.
causes one to marvel and ponder. The peculiarly
feminine sentimentaty responsible for this incon-
sistent conduct ALSO in great measure explains
the fascination that "Christian Science has for
the estlmable women who will turn away from
el-authenticated Christianity for new cult that
appeals to their faneiful and emotional natures
but has absolutely naught to recommend it to mans
intelligence.
