Particularly sane comment on the &C

| The Army and Navy Journal. Tha

was responsible for the explosion, and
therefore, that Judgment should be sus

ELECTED more facts. This is certainly
the only right attitude to assume. 1t j,
far wiser to adopt no theory at al
than to adopt one which must, perhaps
eventually be abandoned. First impres.
sions cannot easily be eradieated, and
the just man will for time refrain
from making choice between the diff.
ferent hypothesis which have been ad-
vaneed to account for the recent dis.
aster. There appears to be no doubt
that the Bennington's boxers were old,
and that the need of repairs on the
first of them which gave way had
been officially recognized. Still, these
circumstances do not prove that weak
ness was the primary cause OF the ex.
plosion. To blame any one for keep
Ing the boiler in service, therefore, is,
to say the least, premature. Marine
and other engineers have within the last
few days remarked that the violence
with which the boiler burst seemed to
point to another possibility Some
thing may have been wrong with the
water-guage, and it may have given
false indications of the amount of liquid
therein. Adjacent valves are sometimes
closed while the boiler is being cleaned,
and they are not always opened again
when they should be. In this manner
and otherwise the glass tube which is
supposed to reveal the level of the
water j. sometimes prevented from act
ing properly. Should the man in charge
fail to make a further test by opening
the cocks provided for that purpose he
might easily be misled by the guage.
If that be the correct explanation Of
the accident to the Bennington, the
trouble may have been attributable to

Considering that within few weeks
hundreds, and possibly thousands, OF

a bad idea to devote some effort to clean
ing the city. There are many little
ways in which the appearance of As
toria may be bettered. Individual effort
will assist greatly in gaining this end.
Not only should attention be paid to
the streets and to the sidewalks in the
business section, but to the residence
section and especially to the front yards.

leaf or twig clipped here and there, a
broom applied to the front steps or

The action of a Salt Lake Judge in
handing down a temporary injunction
against three Mormon members of the
council, restraining them from voting
on the ground Of pecuniary interest. may
be productive of results that will not
be relished by the Mormon church. The
proneness of Mormons to commercislism
is an eminent characteristic of the
sect. They control some of the great
est and most remunerative enterprises in
the country and it may be said that
these are not wholly confined to Utah.
If the men they elect to various muni-
cipal bodies are denied the right to
further the interests of the projects
controlled by the church by voting for
or against various resolutions and ordi-
nances, their operations will necessarily
be curtailed.
