HOME RULE FOR
EMERALD ISLE
Irish Council to Be Established
at Dublin Directly Elected
by the People.
POWERS WILL BE LIMITED
IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT TO RE-
MAIN SUPREME.

London. Aug. 27.-The Daily Chroni-
Gle this morning, forecasting the gov
ernments proposed representation
scheme for Ireland, says legislative
union will not be touched. and that
Irish representation at Westminster
and the powers of the impartial parlia-
ment will not be changed. The chief
feature Will be the establishment of
an Irish council at Dublin, directly
elected. consisting of 103 members, the
same as the Irish representation in the
house of commons, with the addition
of councillors directly elected for larger
a: cas- by electors having ratable value
exceeding 500, peers and clergymen
being eligible.
Similar to GIadstone's Bill.
This is almost the same as the legis-
lative council and legislative assembly
of Gladstone's bill. only they form one
body and not two. The Nationalist
party as now organized would not
easily gain a large majority I'm the
council. The chief secretary would un-
der the new scheme be ex-officio chair
man of the Irish council. and, as repre-
senting the lord lieutenant, would con-
suit with the leader of the ma jority in
the council requiring the appointment
of the chief heads of departments, the
head of the finance department oc-
cupying a position analogous TO that of
premier, who. with his colleagues,
would hold their posts dependent upon
the vote of the council.
judiciary Remains as Now.
The scheme includes the reorganiza-
ton of the Irish government into we'll
defined departments, such as finance,
land, education. etc. The judiciary
Will not be molested. The chief secre-
tary will be spokesman for council, and
its ministers to parliament. All Irish
legislation would still come before the
house of commons, bills being sent
there by the council.
Financial arrangements will be the
cruX of the scheme. Simplicity will be
aimed at. the elaborate provisions of
previous home rule bills not being re-
vived.
The Daily Chronicle seems to init
mate that Irish members of the house
Of commons will be members OF the
council, which would sit whom the in
perial parliament is not sitting.
The whole scheme will be open for
revision after five years.
Ladies' and children will be made
welcome at Wandamere on Labor day

OGDEN COUNCIL
HOLDS MEETING
WaterWorks Franchise Passed
Which Is Not Likely to
Prove Acceptable.
TOO MANY AMENDMENTS
T. S. BROWNING CHOSEN TO FILL
VACANCY.

The waterworks question was up be-
fore the city council again last evening
and for an hour the matter was dis
cussed and finally a franchise with ten
amendments was passed. From the po-
sition taken by the council it would ap-
pear that they do not regard the fran
chise passed as few weeks ago as be-
ing legal Before signing the previous
franchise Mayor Conroy succeeded in get
ting from the waterworks company a
concession whereby meters would be in
stalled on premises only at the request
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1906-08-28

of the consumer While the mayor signed
the other franchise, he recommended that
the council pass a new ordinance inclUd-
ing the change in the meter clause. A
substitute franchise with this change
was presented at the meeting a week
ago When this substitute came up from
the committee last evening it had tagged
to it seven amendments. and when the
smoke of the discussion had cleared away
Councilman Craig had succeeded in tack
ing on three additional amendments, and
in this shape it will go to the mayor.
Il is not likely that the mayor will at
tach his signature to the substitute in
its present form and, If he did, it is safe
to assume that the waterWorkS company
would not accept it.
T. S. Browning Elected.
The resignation of Councilman W. R.
Emmett Of the Fifth ward, which was
presented at the meeting of Aug. 13 was
accepted last evening, and. after Mr.. En-
NETT had expressed his regret at leav-
ing the position, seven of the other nine
me mbers present took turns in saying
nice little things concerning Mr. Emmett
and the pleasant relations that had ex-
listed between them during his incum-
bency in the office. T. s. Browning was
then nominated for the position vacated
out opposition. The new member Of the
council is 46 years Of age and is one Of
the firm Of Browning Bros. Of this city.
He has been an ardent supporter of the
Democratic party but has never held pub
lie office before.
Councilmen Moves and Paine, who re-
signed and were reappointed at the meet
ing held three weeks ago, were reap
pointed to the committees on which they
had previously served.
The attention Of the council was called
to the fact that spur track was being
laid across Twenty-seventh street to the
Fell coal yard, for which a franchise had
been refused by the council last week
This matter was referred to the law COM
mittee and the city attorney.
Only One Bidder.
When the bids for the construction of
the second extension of sewer district No
TO- which is on Fowler avenue between
Twenty-fifth and Twenty-sixth streets,
were opened, 1t was found that the only
bidder was the Wheelwright Construc-
ton company, who bid S79S.50. The bid
was referred to the finance committee.
The Union Pacific Railroad company
was granted franchise to lay a water
pipe line from Taylor's canyon to the
railroad yards along Twenty-sixth street
and Wall avenue. An occupation tax of
500 per year was embodied in the fran
chise before the final passage.
Payrolls amounting to S2,720.60 were al
lowed
The council then adjourned for two
weeks.

SALT LAKE REPRESENTED
National Federation of Postoffice
Clerks Organized at Chicago
On Trade Union Lines.

Chicago, Aug. 7.-Representative
postoffice clerks from all of the prin-
cipal cities of the west met in conven-
ton here today and formed national
union under the aupsices OF the Amer
lean Federation of Labor. The organi-
cation, which will be known as the Ma
tional Federation of POstoffice Clerks
is the first national labor union in
America to be composed exclusively of
government employees. Delegates were
present from Milwaukee, louisville
Nashville, Salt Lake City. San Fran
cisco and Chicago. Several other cities,
it is said, will be represented in the
movement as soon as it is fairly
launched.
Chartered by the Federation.
All of the branches that sent dele
gates to the convention are now char
tered by the American Federation of
Labor as local unions, and the move
ment toNstart the National federation
is said 70 have the approval of Samuel
Gompers and his associates in the exc
cutiVe council. Formal application for
a national charte.- was forwarded to
Washington tonight. The new organi-
cation is based on strictly trade union
lines, and the leaders in the movement
declare that within six months at least
twenty local unions will be formed. all
working in accord with the regular la
Dor movement.

The chief cause of Constipation and

Cascarets are practically to the Bowel
Muscles what Massage and Cold Bath

They stimulate the Bowel Muscles to
contract, expand, and squeeze the DigeS-

They don't help the Bowels and Liver in
such way as to make them lean upon
similar assistance for the future.

may be lessened each succeeding time

Agriculture in Rural Schools.

State Superintendent of Public In
struction, f. A. Cotton, is enthusiasts
tic in his efforts to establish a theo-
retical as well as a practical course
in agriculture in our rural schools.
In bulletin just out he outlines the
plans for beginning this undertaking.
The publication is issued in refer
ence to the work to be taken up this
spring.
In substance, his scheme is this:
IN the first three years the pupils
will be led gradually to understand
and appreciate the value of birds,
flowers, plants and animals, through
the medium of conversation and
written language lessons. The work
in the fourth and fifth grades will be
combination of geography and out
door study, with the purpose of
quickening the observative powers of
the pupils. In the sixth year, the
Importance of the farmer in the
worlds economy is dwelt upon. The
closer study of seeds and plants, such
IS farmers grow, will be taken up;
also inquiry into the relation of the
plants to the soil. and the work of
insects and wind in pollination, etc,
will occupy an important part of the
time. Experimental work will be in
troduced as far as possible In the
seventh and eighth grades work like
that of grating, tree pruning and
planting will be in order. A more
advanced study of farm crops will
here be taken up, and the boys be in
duced to try cultivation experiments
and report results the next year.
The work designed for the township
high school will be farther advanced,
of course. than that in the preceding
rades.

Don't Prunc!

Most amateurs worry themselves
over what they consider the intricate
problem of pruning. My advice is
simply this: Don't prune! Avoid
the annual trimming that ruins so
many Of our gardens. There are
more shrubs ruined by the pruning
mania than by any other one cause
and the worst part of it all is that
the damage is suffered by just those
people who would appreciate having
a few good shrubs. After the thin
ming out of surplus specimens the
only attention that the shrubbery
needs is a thinning out of the old
growth to make room for the new
seasons wood and of course the re-
moval of any dead or dying branches
Remember thai shrubs do not need
the attention of the pruner to make
them grow pruning is only meant
to make the garden look neater. And
remember this golden rule: "Prune
after towering" This means that a
late Towering shrub like the hydran-
gea can be pruned in the spring be-
cause the flowers are produced on the
growths that it will make in the sum
mer, but it is just rs satisfactory to
prune it in the winter time. The
early Towering shrubs that flower on
the growths of the previous season
may be pruned in the spring. but not
until after they have done Towering.
Therefore, spireas, lilacs, deutzias,
golden bells, and such like must not
be cut back if you want to have flow
ers the same season. They will in
all probability require some reduc-
tion of the top, but it must be done
by reducing the number of the
growths, rather than by shortening.

a2ine.

Rational Culture of Corn.

In order to grow a good crop or
corn, it is essential for the soil to be
well plowed and thoroughly pulver-
lied For this work a disc harrow,
the spring-tooth and smoothing har-
row and a drag or roller make a
splendid combination; and that they
may be employed to the best posi-
BILE advantage, says Fred o. Sibley,
in Eptomist, it is advisable to wait
until the ground is in proper condi-
ton for tillage. The aim should
be to get the soil in thorough and
complete tilth before planting. A
thorough preliminary cultivation
aids in the formation of plant food
and by aerating or ventilating the
SOIL influences the soil temperature
as well as, in measure, controls the
supply of moisture. Best OF all, it
kills out or retards weed growth,
which is very important because
weeds consume the plant food and to
that extent rob crops. By shading
the ground, they also have smoth-
ering tendency and they take large
quantities of water from the soil. To
keep them back still more and at the
same time help the further pulyeri-
zation of the soil the field, II not
made too wet by rains. shotld be
gone over with a smoothing harrow
just before the corn plants begin TO
show through the surface. Il the
teeth of the harrow are set ut the
proper slant or angle, sufficiently
over not to tear out the corn, this
method is really most effective in
destroying young weeds. And a
week later, or thereabouts, VIXEN the
corn is two inches above the ground
it will pay even to go over the field
second time with the harrow. The
soil is thus left fine and mellow, the
field clean and active and the corn
plants not hurt a particle, This
should be followed up by eultlvating
after every rain to break the crust,
for continued cultivation is as much
needed to conserve moisture as to
kill the weeds. Keep the cultivator
away from the corn roots, however,
and try to handle the implement so
as to leave the surface level and
even, not in ridges. If other condi-
tions are equal, such as REQUISITE fer
tility and favorable season, fine
growth OF stalks and ears should
then be obtained.

The Only Safe Attitude.

I remember some years ago climb
ing the WeisShOrn above Iermatt Val
ley with two guides. There had been
series of severe storms and ours was
the first ascent for some weeks, conSe-
quently we had a great deal of step
cutting to do mp the main arete. We
had left the cabin at . In the morning,
and 1t was nearly o before we reached
the summit which consisted, as did so
many peaks in the Alps. Of splintered
rocks prouuding from the snow. My
leading guide stood aside to let me te
first on top. And /, with the long labor
of the climb over and eXhilarated by
the thought of the great view awaiting
me but forgetful Of the high gale that
was blowing ON the other side of the
rocks, sprang eagerly up them and
stood erect to see the view. The guide
pulled me down. "On your knees, sir.
You are not safe there except on Your
knees"

FARM NOTES.

Always feed at regular hours.
A fat hen is queen on the market.
Trap nests prevent crowding in
the nest.
Old hens are not profitable IN an
egg farm.
Plan for plenty of soiling crops.
Have an abundance of sweet corn to
follow the peas and oats.
No person who is affected with a
cough or consumption should be al
lowed to care for cows or milk.
Every mixer should wear clean
overall suit, kept for the purpose.
The hands should be washed be-
fore milking, and the fingernails cut
short and kept clean.
We are all of us forgetful, so let
me whisper In your ear once more
that nobody ever invented a strainer
that would take impure matter out
of milk. You must keep 1t out, or
1t never will be out.
Perhaps we shall have patent milk
ing machines in their perfection, by
and by. In the meantime, man
who can milk a COW quietly, expe-
ditiously and gently, Is still preferred
by the COW herself and by the farmer
as well.--Dorothy Tucker, in Farm
Journal.
