POLITICS IN ARKANSAS.

over in Arkansas they believe IN
telling things right out in mestir'. If
a politician doesn't like anoth7- poll
tician he has no hesltancy in saying
50, and the other politician usually
retorts in kind. Recently Governor
Jefferson Davis spoke at a big barbe-
cue III Arkansas. Among other thugs
he said.
Il see the attorney general mere to-
day, and l am going to tell you what
ne did this morning. He met me H.
the hall of the hotel at Higginson in
the presence Of William A. Hitler OF
Sesrcy, and in a boisterous way told
me if / said certain things here today
in my speech as to his private charac-
ter he would kill me. What DO you
think OF an attorney general running
for governor going around threatening
10 commit murder? I want to say that
I do not think Bob Rogers ought to
be elected your governor"
As soon as the governor had finished
The attorney general was given the
center Of the stage. He spoke briefly,
but pointedly. and in manner and form
as follows. tO-wit:
Look at me-" continued Mr.. Rogers.
turning 10 the crowd. do look Ike
a dangerous man? Search me aud
take the cannon off me-" Turning
again to Governor Davis, Mr.. Rogers
said; XIII you? Why, l can take
a cOrncob with "a lightning bug on tee
end Of it and make you jump into the
Arkansas river"
Up TO date the attorney general has
neither slain the governor nor chased
bin into the Arkansas river ahead Of
a lightning bug-charged cornco5. Rut
one OF those events is liable to happen
at any time. We wait with breath
less suspense FOR the inevitable.

STATIONARY ENGINEERS.

TO The Salt Lake Herald:
Realizing as We do that the public Is
interested in reading OF the interests of
its, citizens. I take the liberty OF writing
the following.
Salt Lake City has a body of engi-
neers organized and known as the Salt
Lake Association Of Stationary Engineers,
being an association of the National As
ISOLATION of Stationary Engineers, which
is organized with the following pre-
amble:
This association shall at 40 time be
used for the fuTtherance of strikes, or
for the purpose of interfering in any way
between its members and their employ
ers IN regard to wages recognizing the
identity between employer and employee,
and not cOuntenancing any project or en-
terprise that would interfere with per
feet harmony between them; neither shall
it be used for political or religious pur-
poses. It's meetings shall be devoted To
the business of the association and at
all times preference shall be given To
the education of engineers and 70 Sc
cure the enactment Of engineers license
laws IN order TO prevent destruction of
life and property In the generation and
transmission of steam as motive power"
AS you see, we are organized primarily
and principally for educational purposes.
The national association has an educa-
tiOnal committee which sends out,
through its official organ, the National
EDSiAtEIs puulSllcu III 0uECdEus EtlEn
month a list of from ten TO twenty oues-
tons relating TO steam and electrical
engineering, and each association is sup
posed TO send answers 10 the same, for
which prizes are offered. The Salt Lake
Association of Stationary Engineers has
q membership of about thirty-eight. and
meets each Friday in the Harmony hall
on State street Out OF SO associations.
some of the associations having nearly
800 members, We stood sixth, with a per-
centage of 1913. which. considering the
difficulties the Salt Lake association has
been placed under. we consider is very
good. II Is TO the interests of an EN-
ployers of engineers to see that their
engineers who are in charge of their
plant belong TO the national association
for, should any difficulty arise that the
engineer in charge should not fully I'M
derstand, he could call on any or all
of the members of the association 10
help him over the trouble, thereby saw
ing the owner of the plant considerable

SoUTHERNERs AND OFFICE.

The difficulty of inducing people in
southern states 10 take civil service
examinations for places in the gov
eminent service is just now exercising
the civil service commission con-
siderdbly, The records show that
every southern state Is behind
its quota of federal office-holders.
Although practically assured OF
places paying as much as 81, 500 q
year, the southerners simply viii not
try for them. The commission does
not know how to account for this con-
ditiOn, but there are several reasons.
The southern man who is fit to hold
office at all clings to the old-fashioned
idea that the office should seek the
man. II is not laziness that keeps him
from undertaking the examinations.
Neither is it a fear that he will not
win an average sufficiently high TO
get him the position. He simply feels
that any place he holds in the public
service should be handed TO him on a
SILVER platter.
And there is yet another reason. one
that may seem foolish1y sentimental TO
the people OF the north, but that never
theless rings true south OF the Mason
and Dixon line. A large majority of
southerners, as we believe the election
records tend to show, is made up OF
Democrats. 1t would be hard TO con-
vince the southern Democrat that, in
accepting a place under a Republican
administration, he was not measurably
lowering himself Very few southern
Democrats can maintain their stand
ing as citizens and be federal office
holders under a Republican adminis-
tration at the same time
We do not know that there is any
occasion for worry over the matter.
Civil service regulations, conscientious
ly applied. Will bring to the service
OF the government a sufficient num-
Der OF capable men. The geographic
cal location Of the aDpOintee is of
minor Importance. The main thing is
TO get good men, and good men are
good men whether they come from
Massachusetts or from Mississippi.

PASSING OF Browning.

A brief dispatch in yesterdays
papers announced the passing of a
| man who in his prime came as near
being the idol of the baseball public
as any ball player ever did. He was
Louis Rogers Browning better known
as Pete" Browning, the Gladiator"
Browning slugged mis- way TO fame
in the eighties and occupied a pinnacle
for several years. All pitchers looked
! alike to Browning. He hit every one
Of them with absolute imDartiaIity.
Browning played ia the days before
scientific baseball came into vogue. He
knew nothing about the art Of sacri-
Zee hitting. When he went to the plate
it was with the one idea o. hitting
her out" His record of four home
runs il one game gives all idea of
mis- manner of hitting the ball. And
when ali is said and done, that is the
sort Of hitting the baseball lover OF
today is fondest of.
Those who read the Home Run
aaggerty' stories in The Sunday Her
aid, and who are familiar with Brown
ns's record, may almost believe he IL
the real hero OF the great Alfalfa team
of the Corndroppers' league. The
pitcher Who could strike him out i'm
mediately achieved distinction, but It
is only fair 10 Browning to say that
few of them ever had much success in
that line. Browning was in q class by
himself il his good days. With a man
on base and Browning at the bat his
team was practically sure Of a run or
runs.
Once in Louisville a tight game with
Cleveland was on. The home team was
a run behind. Heeker, a redoubtaole
player, was on third with two our
when Browning came to the bat. Heck
er kept making feints at the plate, as
il he contemplated an attempt to steal.
The Gladiator stood 1t for q sew mo-
ments. Then he yelled at Hecker.
Hold yer bag, Guy, I'll shore hit her."
The next ball pitched Browning hit
for home run and the game was won.
Whiskey did for Pete what he had
done for many pitchers-put him out
of the game. He drank himself into
uselessness and, though he a,ade at
tempts at times to reform, the habit
was too strong To be permanently
broken and at the comparatively eurly
age of fOrty-five years he pass IS prao-
tlcally unknown and unmourned be-
fore the great Umpire.

George Hardy who came here twenty
eight years ago"
Hardy, says a dispatch. is now fifty
years old. For a number of years he
has been in charge of the engines at
the penitentiary. His fame as an en-
gineer had passed beyond the walls of
the prison, beyond even the limits of
his state. for he was offered on his
release a position as electrical engineer
at salary OF $1,000 annually in a
peighboring state This offer he can
not accept, however. as his parole does
not permit him TO leave Michigan.
The case of Hardy viii attract con-
siderable attention because o. the fact
that it is most unusual. 1t Is rarely
that man is willing to go on record
as saying that the most profitable
years of his life were the years he
spent behind prison bars. Nor is it
often that "a penal institution can turn
out man as thoroughly reformed as
Hardy seems to be.
ct the OBJECT or ali penal lnstitu-
tons is 10 make men better as well as
TO protect society from criminals. The
first purpose OF punishment, whether
administered to a child or an adult. is
TO improve the Individual TO make a
good citizen out OF a bad citizen. In
many cases. perhaps in most, it is i'm
possible to work . real reformation.
Occasionally, though. there comes
along al instance like this and it
makes us believe that the efforts of
enlightened men and women in the
line Of reform are not entirely in vain.
The average prison still turns out
more experts in crime than experts in
useful lines Of endeayor. but there is
improvement all the time

a SENTENCE OF VALUE.

The Michigan state prison is appar-
emily an institution in which men, or
at least some men. are really reformed.
a story is going the rounds about the
recent discharge of George Hardy, sent
to the penitentiary twenty eight years
ago to serve a life sentence for murder.
He was parOled the other day and, as
ne walked out of the place where he
had spent the best years OF his life
be was quoted as saying;
Il came here an ignorant man; I
leave here an expert electrical en-
Eineer. The time l have spent here
has not been lost 10 me. I have
harmed a good many moral lessons
from the things that have come under
my notice here, and J believe I am in

PULLING FOR SALT LAKE.

one of the greatest benefits this
city is getting from the opening Of the
Clark road TO Los Angeles is the enor-
nous amount of direct 'advertisins
being done by the new line throughout
the country, and all Of it under the
title, The Salt Lake Route" The
printed matter sent out Of itself would
be a splendid advertising if it had no
special bearing on Salt Lake as a city;
but every booklet. every time table,
every bit of printed literature OF any
kind dwells on the attractions OF Salt
Lake and gives it that much publicity
without cost to the city or its people.
The latest publication. THE Story
OF Trail" has been described in The
Herald; but no description can begin
to convey an adequate idea OF its
beauty geographically or the charm
of its magnificent illustrated chapter
on this city. The company's equip
nent is lettered 1.-THE Salt Lake
Route" in Los Angeles, the street cars
bear the name salt Lake station
the railroad is known there as the
Salt Lake road. tourists by thousands
have their attention drawn TO This
city by the advertising given it
through the line, and the incidental
advantage of having the name SO wide
ly advertised is incalculable. Add TO
this the fact that the Salt Lake route
is working through its connections and
its own offices east. that is agents
everywhere are pulling for their two
terminal cities, Los Angeles and Salt
Lake, and the practical cash value
20 this community of the new road can
be understood.
Heretofore, the Rio Grande has done
much in the way of advertising Salt
Lake, but this state has been subOr-
dinated TO Colorado, naturally, because
the Rio Grande is primarily a Colorado
road. Latterly. more attention has
been paid 10 Utah and its cities and
it is To be hoped the habit will grow
with usage The Short Line and Union
Pacific have devoted more space and
money TO Wyoming, Idaho and the
northwest as their natural territory,
while Salt Lake has had comparatively
little attention. Now these great roads,
the Rio Grande and the Hartman
systems, have a larger interest in Salt
Lake and the prospect is good for more
vigorous publicity affecting this terri
tory The signs have DaVer haan as
favorable. the certainty Of growth
never SO absolute as today. Salt Lake
is getting there fast.
