The boys of New York and of Boston have ''Cty
History Club'' and learning in systematic
ill the landmarks in their respective cities The various
chapters do exceed ten members in number and each
chapter meets say, week once fortnight At
each meeting they have talk from about
special historical feature of the town. and they follow up
the lecture with excursion to the spot to locate it
ind try to it it when the ''incident' hap
pened that has made it famous AS the boys keep note
books and most regular in attendance at the meet
ing and the excursions they know at the end Of the
year good deal about their town and the who
have made it than the average Generally, too,
this very knowing has reused greater pride and loyalty
An effort is made especially to reach the boys Of
foreign birth parentage, who will be future citizens
Of America and who, naturally know little nothing of
the history of the country that is to be their future home
New York and Boston, of course, have much his
tory the square inch than Minneapolis but there
many things connected with local history that it would
be interesting and of practical benefit to know Many
classes in studying the various industries of Minneapo
lis make excursions into the business district and
the processes for themselves Every Junior understands
such things infinitely better for such SEEING and surely
the easiest way learn history visit historical
spots Themselves Everything is much palmer and
much easier to understand and remember.

THE FRANCHISE DEAL.

THE LIGHT & RAILWAY franchise
question comes up tomorrow, posi-
bly, for final consideration, and it would
Ice well for the council TO fix some
things firmly in their minds Ia the
first place they are representing the
people OF Salt Lake as agents in neso-
tiatious for trade, and agents cannot
represent two opposing principals. II
any councilman feels that he must take
upon himself the functions of an at
torney for the light company. he ought
first to define his position honestly and
squareIy, then resign his place in the
council and appear before that body in
his new capacity
No one objects to any citizens belief
that the corporation is entitled to what
IL asks; but every honest citizen does
object to having his elected representa-
tive plead for the other side to the bar
gain. A lawyer who would take money
from both sides to a case in court would
be disbarred IL he got his just deserts;
a councilman who viii accept election
by the people and then exert himself to
give the city the worst bargain posi-
bic in a deal of this kind ought 10 be
forever disbarred from holding public
office or from any claim to the respect
of his constituents.
In the second place, the company has
a right to ask all it thinks it can get
and the city, on its side. ought to insist
on all it is entitled TO in return for 4
valuable privilege. The power company
claims title to a water right which the
city would ike 70 get promptly, and
with a clear title. But the city does
not necessarily have TO make an oner-
Gus sacrifice for what it wants. and
some Of the best lawyers in the city be-
lieve the city could successfully con-
denim the title and get possession of the
water right through the courts at a
fair valuation. on the other hand. the
power company desires to have its
franchises consolidated and extended
sufficiently TO enable it to float bonds

Mr.. PRALL's EXPLANATION.

To The Salt Lake Herald:
In an editorial of even date under
the caption of Ministers and Labor"
you quote a socialist speaker with this
remark:
The capitalists could have devised
no more effective scheme with which TO
fight the just demands of labor than TO
have the clergy admitted into the ranks
Of the Federation of Labor"
If you Will kindly make the correc-
ton, into the politics of the Socialist
party instead of Into the ranks of
the Federation of Labor" I Will gladly
acknowledge the authorship of your
quotation
If you viii kindly allow me. I VIII
attempt to define and defend my state
ment, as corrected.
The controversy arose. and the above
remark elected. over the question as to
whether we would allow ministers from
the various denominations the freedom
OF our platform.
The Socialist party is strictly a POI
4 HticaI organization. with a definite pro-
gTamme for the industrial emancipa ton
OF the workers of the world, and admit
ting your contention, "the average min
lister of the gospel is just as heartily
opposed to the grinding of labor by
capital as the average SOcialiSt''-elinl-
| mating the average, / contend that at
least a percentage of the balance are
working for hire of the capitalist
money and could, if allowed, enter ouI
organization as teachers of false econ
OmicS. We want no mixing of politics
and religion. We extend the hand OF
| fellowship to all ministers as socialists
but it would be just as consistent for d
socialist "aSitatOr" to ask the privilege
of Grating his politics before the min
| listers congregation as il would for The
ministers to ask to address a. religious
sermon TO one of our political gather
| ings.
In regard to your comment that there
/ are bad socialists as we'll as bad min
| listers. 1t is not a question of good Oh
| bad individuals, but purely a matter OF
principles.
Socialists believe that good and bad
! people are produced by good and baC
| environment, and that the root of evi
! and the source of good springs from the
social organism and that good and bad
/ is a reflection of the social standard
! through the ego of the individual.

RoCKEFELLER's HARD LINES.

T HE CONTROVERSY over the ac-
ceptance for missionary purposes
of Rockefeller money has begun to as
sumo a humorous phase. Imagine the
richest man in this country having
trouble to find some one to whom he
can give his hard-earned dollars; and
picture the pity of it, when II. H. Rog-
ers, supposedly the clammiest of the
Standard Oil managers, rUshes into
print and pleads the righteousness
of the gift, apparently alarmed for
fear it viii not be accepted. Truly,
the Standard has come upon parIous
times when it is driven to such ex-
tremes.
Just the same, this discussion is
about the most significant thing that
has happened in a decade. Time was,
and that not long ago, when the out
law methods of the oil concern at
tracted little attention save from it's
victims. The courts, the legislatures
even congress itself blinked at known
iniquities and charged the evils to
modern industrial enterprise" and
called the men who acquired great
wealth by oppression, captains of in
dustry."
Now. alas, all this is changed, and
there is none so poor as to do the
Rockefeller reverence. His millions
win him no affection, no applause, none
OF the things men ordinarily value
most; and his friends are compelled
to defend him and plead for his right
to do good with the money he has ac-
cUmUIated by oppression Of the poor.
The significance of all this is in its
evidence OF moral awakening
throughout the country. The accep-
lance or rejection of Mr.. RockereHer's
gift is of slight Importance compared
with the result which must follow an
earnest discussion Of the facts involved
in the acquisition of that money. And
| whether the missionary board acts IA
vorably or otherwise on the proffer,
it is good for men and churches to
stop and think over the kind Of teach
ing they give when they condone the
| methods by which the Standard Oil has
| secured its tremendous power in every
walk of national life.
