IDAR0'S GOVERNOR.

Following an exhaustive inyestiga-
ton Of the ACCESSIBILITY of uniting the
University, Agricultural College and
School Of Mines in our neighbor on the
north, Idaho, the Governor Of that
state in his message to the legislature
in 1903 said:
ut is believed that further agita-
tion OF this question at this time can
be of no good and will be altogether
harmful to the state and detrimental
to the interests Of higher education"
1t is rather certain that the condi.
tions in Idaho three or four years ago
could not have been greatly different
from what they are in Utah at IT,
present time. The state of Idaho is
young, has been struggling through
the trials Of development, just as
Utah has, yet has been able to sustain
its higher educational institutions.
Now that the state Is better prepared
to take care OF its big institutions
properly, it does not propose to undo
the terrible risk of consolidating its
Agricultural College with its Univer-
sity. We are not proposed to say at
this time as TO whether the Agricul-
tural College is conducted along lines
that are different from our own, but
1t is certain that for good or Tad rea-
sons the question Of consolidate was
sprung. All phases Of the question
were then Investigated and the Cover
nor Of Idaho made the recommended
lion cited above.
So far as the Governor Of Utah Is
concerned, his action is problematical.
TIE committee in Idaho was unani-
nous in It's recommendations while in
Utah the committee submits three
different reports, thus the position of
the Governor Of Utah is made very
awkward. 1t is possible that he may
submit all the reports without signing
either, and it is entirely possible that
In his message he may make no other
recommendation than that the matter
should be promptly settled one way
or the other.
While in Cache county, before nom.
ination and election, Gov. Cutler ex-
pressed himself as unalterably oppos-
ed to consolidation, and there are
many here who insist that he contin-
ues to entertain the same idea. While
1t is probable that he has favored and
perchance still favors, the elimination
Of certain courses from the college,
even those who felt bitter toward him
at one time retain confidence In his
expression as to consolidation.
Having expressed himself so strong
ly as he has, the friends OF the Agri-
cultural College throughout the state
hope that he can find in the minority
report sufficient facts and figures TO
warrant him in recommending TO the
legislature the minority's conclusion
there Is no emergency existing de-
manding the consolidation of the
College and the Univer-
sity."

DENATUREO ALCOHOL.

\ northern exchange is inclined to
feel that no measure passed by con-
gress in recent years is Of more bench
to the mass of the people If, the prac-
tical results are equal to the theoretic-
al possibilities, than the new dena-
tured alcohol act.
Denatured alcohol is grain alcohol,
rendered unfit for use as a beverage
by the addition Of some denaturat
such as wood alcohol, creosote or
other poison. After the first of the
year the government will allow its
manufacture and sale, free Of all tax.
The immense Importance OF the
measure Will be ready understood
when we consider that the product
may be manufactured for less than
II cents per proof gallon and has
Illuminating value almost 100 per
cent above ordinary Kerosene and is
80 per cent more productive in heat.
When it is freely predicted that its
use will revolutionize the production
of light, heat and power in the United
States. this is but one field of its use
fulness. Almost every branch Of
manufacturing finds 1t necessary TO use
alcohol in quantities either great or
small even at the present prohibitive
cost.

should receive attention in order
that the road may be made complete.

fence fronting this bridge might pre-
vent a very bad accident some day One
or two more Of the narrow dugways
should be made into double thorough
fares, and more turning out places
should be made for the convenience
of teams passing. The travel over
this particular piece OF road is ten
times greater than it was a few years
ago, and this increase Of travel makes
accidents more probable AS this
travel increases, good work on the
road should increase, and while 1t is
gratifying that such excellent results
have already been attained this year,
we can not feel but That these sug-
getions are in place.

In proposing their Office cat as the
fit member of the staff TO enter the
political arena, the Journal certainly
picked from the bunch the one that
could make the best race. Nor is
there any greater doubt about their
cat being better able than either of
the bunch to represent Caches inter
csts in legislative body.
