AMERICAN MONEY ABROAD.

The Chicago Record Herald concludes
a very sensible editorial on the see
America First movement with these
words:
Now, travel abroad is highly educational
and enjoyable. Delightful ESSAYS have
been written on its pleasures and bene-
fits. But travel in ones own country
when it embraces whole continent ard
includes every kind Of climate, many
types of civilization and every sort Of
natural beauty and grandeur Is just as
educational and pleasurable. At least a
part Of the amount that goes into Euro
pean pockets might profitably be spent
at hons IN travel.
Nothing could be truer. The average
American sees entirely too little of his
own country. The moment he gets a
little money he feels that he can af-
ford to spend In travel he betakes him
self straightway to the nearest shipping
point and embarks for Europe. He
rushes around through the old countries
for a few weeks or a few months, see
ing a great deal and understanding
very little about II, and then comes
home satisfied to stay at home the bal
ance of his life.
The president of a New York bank.
Mr.. Hepburn. who was once comptroller
OF the national treasury. is authority
for the statement that the expenditures
of American tourists in Europe nov
reach the enormous sum of $500, 000, 900
a year" Mr.. Hepburn declares he has
gone into the subject thoroughly with a
number of gentlemen who are in posi-
ton to secure the most accurate infor-
nation, and none puts the total at a
smaller figure than s400, 900, 900. These
figures, however, have been challenged.
1t is pointed out by representatives
of the steamship companies that this
year, regarded as the greatest year on
record for European travel only 1000
first and second cabin passengers
have gone or will go to Europe. If the
lower estimate suggested by Mr.. Hep
burn is true, then each of these passen-
gers must spend not less than $4,000. A
great many of them will undoubtedly
spend a great deal more than that sum.
Two thousand dollars is not large
sum for rich man to spend in a sum-
mer in Europe. But a large majority
will spend less than s.. 000 Some will
spend not more than $500.
But if the average is only $1,000,
which is certainly fair enough, the total
reaches $500, 900, 900. And the larger
share of the money ought TO be kept
at home, for it is needed here

ON SALT LAKE READY FOR DISTRIBUTION

One of the most attractive booklets is

and the attractive features of the city
and surrounding country are shown.
The desirability of Salt Lake as place

Miilionaires who have made their
own fortunes are usually of this type
Accustomed to hard work all their lives
they would no more know how to STOP
working than they would know how t.

general rule, that it is the lust for
more money that keeps them at work
Rather is it the desire to excel. They
have already showed their ability to
get ahead. even under the most un-
favorable circumstances, but they like
to keep their fellow citizens advised OF
the fact 1t is easy to believe that if
the United States had law limiting

lean millionaires would keep right on
working as hard as they are working
now, for the reasons we have stated.

MONKEYS BY THEIR FRANKS SHOW SENSE
OF HUMOR LIKE HUMAN DESCENDANTS

lection which got good and even" with
one of the care-takers who had a pen
chant for teasing the baboon. Seeing the
care-taker approaching the baboon poured
some water into hole in the ground,
mixing it with earth, so as to make mud.
When his enemy came up he splashed
the muddy water on the csre-takers uni
form. For long time after this every
time the animal saw the care-taker he
indulged IN what had every appearance Of
being laughter.
The elephants have a decided sense of
humor, or signs of one at least, and many
are the amusing capers they indulge in
between exhibition hours. There are
twarty-four' of these mammoth pachy-
,lerms with the Forepaugh-Sells collec-
tiCn, two of which are said to be the
rarest and most costly In the world, and
only two of their species known to be in
captivity. They have huge umbrella
shaped ears which cover nearly the half
of their bodies. One Of them is deeply
attached to Boston" the baby elephant
of the group, and is never quiet when

WooLeRowERs ARE COMING.

The announcement published I'm The
Herald Saturday that the national as
ISOLATION of wool growers will hold its
next annual gathering in Salt Lake
cannot fail to be a source of satisfac-
ton TO the people of this city. The
membership of the association, thanks
TO the energy of it's secretary. George
s. Walker, and to other members of the
organization, has increased very ma
terially during the last few years 1t
is estimated now that there are ap-
proximately 5000 members.
The exact date Of the meeting is in
definite, but it will probably be held
here in January of 1907. The import
ance of the gathering is difficult to es-
innate. 1t will certainly bring to Salt
Lake a number Of people who would
not otherwise come here at that time.
and the city will receive advertisement
that it could receive in no other way.
The growers of wool will be heartily
welcomed and every effort will be made
to make their stay as pleasant as is
possible
Without full understanding of the
difficulties under which the wool grow
ers have labored in the west it would
be hard to appreciate the growth of the
organization and its Importance to the
welfare Of the country. In the face Of
bitter opposition from otherwise gen.
erous and patriotic citizens the wool
growing industry has progressed until
today it is recognized as one of the
most important factors in the pros
perity of the west.
The members of the association are
as rule. first-class citizens. They re-
spect the laws of their country and
they obey them. And it is pleasant to
note that they have selected Salt Lake
City as their next place of meeting
We feel sure they win enjoy so much
hospitality that they will all want to
make Salt Lake permanent headquar-
ters. No better city could certainly
have been chosen for the meeting. Salt
Lake is a good city in the winter, a
good city in the spring or the fall or
the summer. 1t is centrally located,
with reference to the intermountain
country. and its other advantages are
so numerous that there is not space
here in which to enumerate them.
On behalf of the people of Salt Lake
The Herald extends an advance well
come to the wool men. When they come
we want them to make themselves at
home, TO feel that they are part of US.

THOSE BRAINY CHICAGoANs.

The other day in Chicago an exam
nation of applicants for positions on
the police force was held. The ques-
lions put were not very difficult, or
rather, they would not seem so to the
average school boy. They were diff
of their weird answers show One of
the Chicago papers prints some of the
definitions given by would-be police
men as follows:
ALIBI-"An additional name to a per-
som; "a false oath for which a person
can be imprisoned"
FELONY-''A case in which a person
may try to get what is unlawfully due
to him. such as money; "a fellow who
is caught stealing.
GAMING-"Killing game without a Ii
eense'; making fun of people,
Leaving wife and children
under 16 without a home; "a person
committing himself" ito ruin persons
face"
PERJURY "Unjustly defaming the char.
acter of another; trying to beat the
state law"
There is not a word in the list the
definition of which the average police
man should not reasonably be expected
to know. They are words that are in
the most familiar use. Nearly every
day they may be found In the news
papers and it is astonishing, indeed,
that any man who is old enough to be
a police officer should not be able to tell
exactly what they mean. The defini-
most amazing.
1t may be true that a man might
make a brave, efficient and painstaking
police officer without knowledge Of sim
pie legal terms. He might be able to
serve a warrant of arrest, to prevent
disorder, to capture criminals. The fact
remains, though. that 1t would be risky
business to appoint men, even though
they be otherwise qualified, who cam
not give intelligent definitions Of the
list of words above quoted, to places on
the police force.
There is both encouragement and en-
couragement In the examination pa
pers; encouragement at the colossal
ignorance of grown men and encourage
ment at the thought that In Chicago,
at least, the man who would be a po-
liceman must first pass a reasonable
mental examination. Chicago has been
called a corrupt and misgoverned city
but 1t has the right theory OF police ap-
pointments and is sure to win with ii.

Uses OF CAPITAL.

\ controversy is going on in the east
about the uses 10 which great wealth
may properly be put, One argument
has it that it is all right for the little
children of the rich TO sit up at night
devising new luxuries for themselves
because they cannot spend money in
that way without distributing it, In
. part, at least, among people who need
II very badly There was never dress
or hat made, never a fantastic outfit
for a fancy dress ball, never even a
monkey dinner, that did not benefit in
a financial way somebody that needed
The lift.
There is much truth in the argu-
ment 1t is obviously impossible for
anybody to spend money without put
ting money in circulation. The man
who is most dangerous to society is the
man who boards his wealth or lends it
out 10 the needy ones at usurious
rates of interest. The difficulty about
the spenders who spend merely for the
sake of spending is that they encour-
age others TO extravagan that they
cannot afford. In every circle of So
ciety, after a certain point, there is a
set that. for lack of better express
sion, may be called "fringers," or
climbers"
These people are neither out nor in.
They are hanging on by the ragged
edge. They see those who are more
fortunately situated indulging in ex-
travagances of every character and
they feel that they must keep up the
pace. The result in the end is misery
and ruin. For that class OF people
there is very little hope. They are not
deferred by example and they cannot
be reached by precept. The wealthy
man who is really a benefit and a help
20 his country is the man who uses his
wealth in legitimate channels to pro-
duce other wealth.
Every millionaire who builds a fac
tory is by that much an Industrial phi
lanthropist. The factory gives employ
ment 10 hundreds Of individuals, per-
hans. gives them a chance to earn a
comfortable living. chance TO better
their condition. even to rise themselves

canpelled 10 carefully calculate the re-
suit of every expenditure, however
small. The millionaire who opens

,erprises. builds railroads ana affords
other opportunities for his fellow men
