BUSINESS FAIR
FOR THE WEEK
Dry Goods Trade Shows a Marked
Improvement Over Last Year.
COUNTRY BUYERS WAITING
GENERAL IMPULSE EXPECTED
DURING CONFERENCE WEEK.

Business conditions for the week just
ended in Salt Lake have been fair,
without anything of a startling nature.
1t looked at the opening of the week
as though there would be something
doing in the grain, feed and -four trade,
but the upward tendency dWindled to
normal conditions by Wednesday. The
outlook for the coming week is uncer-
tain, though il is possible that some
thing may be done in the seed markets.
Groceries, meats and fruits were
steady, yet there was one desirable ac-
cession and that was the appearance of
Spring lamb.
The clothing trade has been quiet,
with but little doing Que ia he ~
goods trade the condition is satisfac-
tory, and the local managers say that
there is a marked Improvement over
last year at this time.
The hardware trade is brisk, owing
to the favorable weather conditions.
Farmers are buying literally and there
is every indication that agricultural
interests will have a decided boom.
In banking circles the week might
well have been called featureless.
though money was easy and general
business was steady and good.
General Trade Satisfactory.
r. q. Dun & CO. report the jobbing
trade as being quiet, especially the local
trade. They account for this on the
ground that at this time of the year
buyers from the country postpone their
purchases until conference week, that
is, the first week in April. At that time
II is expected the majority OF the coun-
try merchants Will take advantage of
the liberal passenger rates offered by
the railroads TO come to Salt Lake to
attend the conference. and at the same
time to make the necessary purchases
TO restOck their stores. At the present
time collections are slow but money is
plentiful and eZsN TO obtain on good
securities Nearly all the industrials
are firm and quotations are about the
same as they were a week ago, as fol-

Board OF Education.

The retiring Board of Education
acted within its power in ejecting Mr..
Benson as janitor of the Woodruff, but
certainly the action is questionable.
The writer does not at this iuncture
know who voted against Mr.. Benson's
retention-but be that as IL may the
action reflects discredit on the men
who were parties it to. SO far,we have
never heard Mr.. Benson's worth as a
ianitor questioned, vet Tor some rea-
son Board of Education within few
hours of its retirement bounces him
takes official action in matter which,
technically, is no longer a portion of
its business. 1t certainly seems
that men with fair fitness OF things
would not at this time have taken
Official action in any matter that did
not pertain TO the proper closing of
their work. Personally, The REPUB-
LICAN doesn't care a rap whether Mr..
Benson is ianitor at the Woodruff or
anywhere else, and our contention in
the matter has not been through any
special friendliness toward him or UNI
friendliness toward any other We
believe that Mr.. Benson could and
would make a good janitor while
trustee and good trustee while JAM
tor. Neither need interfere with the
other. The assertion that Mr.. Ben
son should not hold position in which
he would have to pass on his own
salary, etc, is a bugaboo which need
not have scared sensible people. This
is matter which is common to bust
ness life, common in both the the city
council and Board OF Education so far
as passing on contracts are concerned.
In matters of this kind, honorable
men land no man has ever said
Mr.. Benson is less than that usually
retire when affairs pertaining to them-
selves come up for consideration. The
ever argued that IL is the best arrange
ment for man to hold two offices in
just the way Mr.. Benson was about to,
but we do say the alarm and huzzah
about the Nmatter was a bugaboo
scared up in one instance by the local
organ OF opposition which natural
ly seeks TO create strife in the Repub-
lican ranks, and in other instances
by men who can see great danger fire..
quently where little exists. We be-
lieye, and are satisfied that the Senti-
ment of the general public is, that
this matter of retaining or releasing
Mr.. Benson as janitor could better
have been left to the Board which
must look after the welfare of the
schools from now on.

bilities of arid lands will certainly re-
suit in adding materially to the
wealth of the State. There are at
present 81 ,072, $50 acres of land in the
State which are not irrigated. If
only one per cent Of this land can be
made to yield fifteen bushels per acre
without irrigation, and 1t does not
seem at all impossible, the State
would gain annually 7,795,S60 bushels
Of wheat, with a value of at least 30
cents per bushel, or 1887, $3.50, If
only one acre in a thousand can thus
be reclaimed, the annual value TO the
State would be nearly 100000. Cal
culations similar to these may be
multiplied and the numerous expert
ments of the station can be connected
with their financial value in such a
way as to show that the Utah agri-
cultural experiment station has done
work which may make or Is making
for the State millions of dollars AS a
money-making institution for the state
the agricultural experiment station
takes second rank to none, save it be to
the public school system, which gives TO
men and women powers to use the re-
suits obtained by modern science"

This is the season of the year when
the wastefulness and extravaganza Of
many Of our farmers is painfully evil
dent. Valuable and costly machinery
in some cases not yet paid for, is left
out exposed to the storms, causing
rapid deterioration. The decay and
rust of farm machinery is costing the
farmers of this region, thousands Of
dollars - Deseret Farmer. A word to
the wise is sufficient you know, and
ought TO be for fools.

BENSON OF THE BENSON?

Properly, the outgoing Board Of
Education should have cancelled
Lorenzo BenSon's engagement as
ianitOr of the Benson school to take
effect the first of the year, upon the
assumption of his duties as member
of the Board of Education. The
failure to do so will throw the burden
OF that duty-and it is Il duty upon
the new Board, Otherwise, since the
school bears his name and he will be
at once custodian of the building and
a general Oversecr of all its depart
ments, it might fairly be considered
too heavily BenSonized for the public
good, or the schools. The Only.
That's rich, wonderously rich.
Since when did Mr.. Benson become
janltor of the Benson school? THE
REPUBLICAN has frequently produced
evidence TO prove that our esteemed
contemporary usually knows little or
nothing Of the questions it attempts
TO discuss, and here is evidence that
can not be denied. THE only" has
for weeks discussed Mr.. Benson's
qualifications as a janitor and as a
trustee, yet does not know where Mr..
Benson is employed, The mistake is
not Typographical one, for the point
OF the whole artluIc is based on Mr.
Benson's location as janitOr For
twenty-five years 1.-THE only" has dis
cnssed matters of public interest in
Just the same way. In that time it
may have been right occasionally, but
not for the reason that it has ever
sought to get at the real truth, ever
made any real effort to get the exact
facts. Until there is a change in this
respect the general public will con-
tinue TO put question mark after
"thc only's" expressions on any sub
ject.

There Is more of method than mad
ness in General Stoessel's stubborn de-
Tense Of Port Arthur He has been
severely criticised by some for holding
out and continuing to sacrifice many
lives daily when ultimate surrender is
inevitable. But it should be remem-
bered that by holding out, he has ac-
complished an important purpose for
his country. He has made it neces-
sary for Japan to maintain an i'm
Iaense army there, which otherwise
would have been used at other points
TO the injury and loss of Russia.

aid has found fault with Governor
Wells. He has not always acted as we
would have had him act, but nobody
has ever questioned the sincerity OF
his desire to do his best for the state;
nobody has ever questioned the purity
of his motives. Governor Wells has
made an able, clean, courageous execu-
tive.
In our day we have seen many gov
errors. but never have we seen one
who played his part better. Governor
Wells has been source of pride to his
constituents, an honor TO his state.
And while we are discussing retire
ing officers, it is proper to mention
one other member of the state admin
istsation, Secretary of State Ham
mond. Mr.. Hammond came down to
us from Cache county nine years ago,
new and untred man. He has made
a faithful, careful and conscientious
Official
At all times Mr.. Hammond has been
at his office, working efficiently and
diligently. Any citizen who had busi-
ness with him was given the sort of
treatment one likes to receive from
public servants, but it is the sort OF
treatment he rarely receives. Mr..
Hammond goes out of the secretary
ship with very many more friends
than he had when he went into it,and
he will always have high place in
the esteem of his fellow citizens.

little or nothing of Price, but each

TO the Topeka Capital from W. Y.
Morgan, who with his wife is visiting
Europe this summer, is an amusing
history of some of the mixed pleas
ures of travel in Italy
Previous to this trip 1 had often
heard people talk about the ffeas in
Italy and had thought it was very
funny 1t is no joke. At first was
much amused when 1 would see a we'll

justifiabie and proper action, If
there is a game law in Italy with a
closed season on fieas it is not this
time OF the year l have seen the
anxious notwithstanding look on the
faces of the martyrs and saints as
painted by the old masters and know
now where they got their models. for
