THE ROAD TO YESTERDAY.

II I could only find the road,
The road to yesterday,
I'd ease my heart Of many a load
That burdens IT today,
Recall the words so harsh, unkind,
Kiss clean the stabs made when blind
Plant love for hate if I could find
The road TO yesterday.
The road to yesterday,
The road to yesterday!
Unlock, 0 blessed angel guide,
Ny night of sleep and open wide
The gates that intervene and hide
The road to yesterday
Repentant, turn and walk again
The road to yesterday!
RewTite the page with cleaner pen
And wipe out yesterday.
With wiser heart would retrace
The stains Of sin and wrong efface,
Ny tortured soul seeks means Of grace
To re-live yesterday
o angel, show me, pray,
The road to yesterday
With precious blood the way was
bought;
I've found the blessed boon I sought;
Tomorrow shall be happier wrought
Than was my Yesterday.

is supposed to keep Colorado from con-
troll, Colorado would balance the three
great mining States of the West and
Northwest Suppose, however, that
Utah, idaho and Nevada and other
States that might be named, should not
send the ten delegates. The Colorado
delegation would still remain in full
force, and it would be- able TO balance
or perhaps overbalance, a great many
more States than the three named. The
result would gradually be that as the
years go by Colorado would be firmly
fixed in control of this congress. and no
other State would think OF competing
with Colorado in any manner for con
troll, either Of policies or of Offices.
That is precisely what The Tribune
charged in the first place; that these
bylaws, alleged TO prevent Colorado
from obtaining or holding control, are
cunningly devised TO reach precisely
that end, and putting Colorado in con.
troll permanently and without danger of
being shaken OFF
This does not necessarily imply that
other States viii take no interest in the
mining congress at Denver. On the
contrary, they will find that Denver is
good place TO 90 for the conventions
when they are held. Much good will
doubtless arise from the annual meet
ings, and great deal Of practical in
formation and valuable intercourse will
be evolved in and from these meetings.
Our Denver fellow-citizens can be de
pended upon to make matters pleasant
and TO treat visitors well, with all
courtesy and consideration, but pre-
tense that this congress is anything
but n Denver congress may as well be
abandoned now as at any other time.
1t is and will be a Denver congress;
but we hope that IT may prove none
the worse for that

THE SEWER oVERHAULING.

A fresh evidence Of the ipcompe.
tence of the Morris administration TO
handle the practical affairs of the city
is found in the way the intercepting
sewer in the northwestern and western
part of the city is laid out. The matter
came up on Wednesday evening, and II
was found that tho depth plan for the
sewer there would entail cost Of
$350,000, in place Of $225,000 esti-
mated by Mr.. Bacor the city engineer
under Morris. and of the $l50,o00 voted
by the taxpayers for this work. This
is an enormous discrepancy, and il was
up To the American administration to
find some way out of the difficulty.
There would be no way 10 make the
water bonds pay for this extra OK
pcnse, and there was no need whatever,
as agreed on all hands. Of having the
sewer there reach 10 n depth of
twentyfour feet, as planned by Engi
neer Bacon.
The best expert practical opinion
now is that that depth can be de
creased from six to seven feet. leaving
the depth of the sewer somewhere from
fifteen 10 eighteen feet below the sur-
face. That, it is held, would be ample,
and would cut off nearly half of the
total cost that would he required TO
complete the sewer under the Bacon
engineering. Probably with this modi.
fcation the sewer can be put in at
cost of something less than Mr. Bacon 's
estimates, but certainly his estimates
do not fit in any respect sewer 10
be laid twenty-four feet under ground
in that part Of town, the character of
the ground there being marshy and
oozy, adding immensely 10 the cost for
any distance below tine fifteen or
eighteen feet which il is now proposed
to lay that sewer
The remodeled surveys and esti-
mates under charge of City Engineer
Kelsey, and which Councilman Black,
chairman of the Committee on Engi-
neering and Sewerage, is anxious to
have made and established as the new
level for the sewer. will be n great saw
ing to the taxpayers Of the city, and
will make the sewer of even greater
benefit TO the city than under the
Bacon plan, because there is no ad-
vantage, whatever, in the added depth
to compensate for the enormous cost
of the deeper digging; and then the
would be easier and less costly
than under the old proposition.
II is lamentablc fact that when
ever the efficient and practical men of
the American city administration have
to deal with any of the leftover propo-
sitions of the Morris administration.
they have 10 modify, reconstruct, and
strengthen, practically making all new,
before any satisfactory outcome can be
had with respect TO the work in hand
No more severe criticism could possibly
be passed upon any administration than
the practical facts of experience and
actual overhauling necessarily done
upon the Morris administration layouts
by those who are doing the public
work which was planned by the in
who had public affairs in

mates were made.

ABANDON 1T,

The microbe of the special legislative
session seems to have attacked society.
1t Is to be hoped that in the public
interest some specific will be found to
end the ravages OF the irritating thing.
We are now within four months of the
general election in this State at which
a new legislative assembly will be
elected by the people. To call the
present Legislature into extraordinary
session would be TO involve the whole
State IN the disturbance and commo-
tion Of political campaign from this
time on, There is nothing that a spe-
cial session could do but may be equally
we'll performed at the regular session.
The particular questions which it is
proposed to bring before the Legisla-
ture, upon call by the Governor, have
been pending in this State for four
years. They should be carefully con
sldered, not alone by the members Of
the Legislature, but by all the tax
payers and citizens; and next winter
such OF them as are imminent should
be determined in the regular and or
derly way
If an extraordinary session OF the
Utah Legislature is requisite now to
decide the single question Of the con
soiidatIon or continued segregation
Of the University of Utah and
the Agricultural college, or to
adopt a resolution to submit the ques-

THAT DENVER CONGRESS.

Some days ago The Tribune had some
criticism of the Denver Mining Con.
gress, based on the point that there are
no Utah men on any OF the committees
under the reconstructed bylaws and
organization, 4 letter from the secre-
tary of the American Mining Congress
admits that this criticism was inst. but
explains it by the statement ''that the
Utah member of our Board of Direct.
ors MIR. John Dern was abroad at the
time of its meeting, and as it is the
purpose in the appointment Of the com
mittees to bring about the accomplish,
ment Of work, and as Mr.. Dern was
not present TO suggest the names that
could be relied upon 10 undertake the
work of these committees, no such Sc
lection could be made with any Ger.
talnty that the work would be done. -
This, of course, is an official eXpla-
nation that in routine way would
be satisfactory; but it does not really
go to the root of the matter at all,
because there is plenty of Utah mining
men of more than local, in fact, of
even National Importance, who could
easily have been considered in this CON
nectlon and put upon some of these
pretend that the Utah mining men are
so obscure in repute and so small in
fame that their names are not known
to expert mining men in Denver. The
explanation, while routine, is in fact
an added o6ense, because it belittles
Utah mining men and their high repute
IN a way that is altogether unlustified
Another proposition which The Tri-
bune urged was that the amended by
laws, with the restriction that all vot.
ing members OF the Congress must pay
an enhanced sum as initiation fee and
dues, and that the membership as re-
stricted would make it easy for Denver
to always be in control of the congress,
both as to its organization and as to its
acts. This the secretary of the CON
gress denIesy saying that the protec tion
designed to prevent Colorado g control
OF the organization "gives each State
ten votes if it shall have that many
members present at an annual meeting.
II gives each State an additional
representation of one vote for each
fifty members in good Standing Then
it is explained that ''under this rule
Colorado, with 1000 members contrib.
uting $4,000 to the support Of the or

votes. Should Utah, Idaho and Nova
da each have ten members who are
present Mt the annual meeting, the dele

vote of Colorado in nm electiou.''

LADY CURZON,

Except for the early death of Lady
Curzon, Of kedleston, there was in the
marriage and the career of Mary Letter
Of Chicago, welded TO George y. Cur
2on of England, only matter for ma
tloual pride and international con
graduation. This was one of the few
marriages of this time made between
American girls and foreign noblemen
which had in it no element of sordid-
ness, no silly ambition, and no degrad.
ing bargain. Mary Letter was beau.
tiful and accomplished, George Curzon
was handsome and remarkably tai
ented. Both were wealthy; both were
noble-Mary Letter in her glorious
womanhood and her American right.
and George Curzon in his manhood and
in his titular distinction. Americans
who travelled in the Orient during the
time that Lord Curzon-for he was
elevated to n barony soon after his
marriage-was viccroy of India and
while his American wife presided over
the viceregal court, universally re.
ported that Lady Curzon bore her hon.
ors with all the splendid fitness of a
good queen. Her tact in dealing with
other people and her love for her dis
tinguished husband gave an added
splendor and satisfaction to the vice
roy g career
1t is piteous thing that Lady Cur
zon should have died so young. OF all
the international marriages of recent
years this was one without an appa-
rent blemish, and the sympathy of two
Nations goes out 10 the Young but
mighty statesman who has lost the
better half of bis life.
