These objections, it seems to us, are
OF sufficient merit to warrant the de-
struction of the bill. If there is one
place more than another where politics
should not be allowed to enter that
place is the fire department There
merit, and merit alone, should be the
governing factor in the making of ap-
pointments: there lack of merit alone
should constitute the ground for dis
missal.
In Salt Lake, to our woe and dissa is
faction, we had a fire and police board
once The matter is of such recent his
tory that it is not necessary to remind
citizens of the continual round of bick-
ering and jealousies ana dissensions.
The police and fire departments of Salt
Lake were never at so low a standard
Of efficiency as during the regime OF
the fire and police commission.
Finally, it was Iegislated out of ex-
istence. Do we want anything more

SALVATION OF TEXAS PETERS.

CThe Century,
We were hangin' -Bustler'' Murphy for
the stealth of a horse;
1t was in the cattle country, where the
was no law but force,
An we had no courts an lawyers t steer
justice firm its course.
We were hangin' Rustler Murphy just as
dawn was shown dim
In the eastern sky: we hadn't nOthin' per-

But rustier takes his chances. an his
chance is mighty slim
In the hills we heard a coyote sound / @

Like "A dirge for hustler Murphy as We

face a little 0ale-
He was game was Rustler Murphy, for
he never said q word
As we marched him up the valley, where
the long grass waved an stirred,
An the music of the coyotes was the only
sound we heard
We were hangin' RUstler Murphy Just as
genteel as We could,
For we hadn't nothin' personal ag'in' him
An he walked along resigned like, just
as if he understood.
There's a pine tree ND the mountain
where we were a-leadin' him
A tree that once was blasted by the
lightnin, an stood grim.
With a black an shriveled body, but a
most inVitin limb
1t was handy to the village, an was fer
enough away,
So the hangln. want offensive; an the
dawn was gettin' gray
As we halted our procession. SOS 10 give

Then I'D spoke Buckskin Davis. who was

When the rustlel $ prayer was finished,
an he habarded hope
That the man confess his sins afore (

So Rustler Murphy answered. an has

An he said: well, yes. 1 killed him, an

KILL THIS BILL.

T HE KINNEY BILL, house bill No.
115. which provides for the creation
of boards of fire commissioners for
cities of more than 1900 population.
would be all right if the enacting clause
were stricken out. If the author of the
measure viii agree TO this amendment
we would be inclined to give it our sup
port. Seriously, though. the bill is a
mischievous one that ought to be killed.
The first objection to it is that it de-
prives cities of more than 2.00O popu-
lation of home rule. for the fire COM
missioners, If the bill passes, will pe
appointed by the governor. Thus, in
all matters pertaining to the fire de-
partments the cities that must find the
money to maintain the departments
viii have absolutely no voice.
The clear purpose of the bill is to
make the political complexion of the FIRE
departments in the cities affected CORE
spond with the political complexion Of
the state administration. This in order
that the places in the departments may
be used as rewards for political serv-
ices, and IN order that the members Of
the departments may be virtually re-
