METHODIST CONFERENCE CLOSED
ANNUAL SESSION SUNDAY NIGHT

fornia conference, was transferred
to First church, Tulsa. DR.. Hart is
a man of, probably, forty-fve years
of age, in the very zenith of his
strength. He is said to be an eloquent
preacher and a great pastor, just the
man to assume the direction of rap
idly growing charge like this. The
new pastor will probably arrive this
week and preach his initial sermon
next Sunday.
DIR. M. N. Powers was returned to
Bartlesville, where he has arrange
mcnts under way to build $4,000
church. o. A. Wright was transfer
red from Sapulpa to Collinsville, Rev.
Ault, an Illinois man, being assigned
to Sapulpa. Rev. J. II. Postle was re-
turned to Broken Arrow and William
Robinson went back to Claremore
Muskogee charge, in the Muskogee
district was left to be supplied. That
church is also making rapid strides
forward. A new house of worship
will be erected within the course of
a few months. A live pastor will be
appointed by making a transfer from
some big conference. Tahlequah and
other charges in the Muskogee dis
trict we're also left open to be sup
piled,
The East Oklahoma mission is
growing so rapidly that it is diff
cult matter to keep up with it. Sew
eral new charges could be opened if
sufficient mission money and men
were available. 1t is thought, howev.
er, that more mission money will be
allowed this year, as the needs of the
work are such that it is impossible
to get along without large funds.
The visiting clergymen are highly
pleased at their entertainment in Tul.

or relief whenever the water supply
was short
SO, with these lakes, no doubt there
can bo had from them such relief ms
the city might require from time to
time in the reinforcement of its water
supply, But it has been suggested that
the title 10 some of these lakes at least
is not entirely clear. That will be n
matter for investigation by the legal
department Of the city administration.
Or course, there must be n clear title
provided, or else the city cannot ex-
pend any money TO buy those lakes.
With clear title assured, and with tho
fuller report by the City Engineer
bearing out the anticipations which the
preliminary investigation seemed to es-
tablish, it looks as though The city
might here obtain very valuable asset
with no great outlay of money.

DANGEROUS DUELs.

Apropos of the recent Andre-Negrier

OF man who had the reputation of an
expert on the field of honor. He at once
began to rail at duels with pistols. He
could not bear even to- speak of them.
The fact was that he had once himself,
at an encounter OF that kind, received
a ball In the shoulder.

PEACE RESTORED.

It is iudup,able fact Tint several Of the
delegates 10 the comy cntion today are ''anti.
machine men. but there is no evidenoe
that they will bolt Mr.. Howell. II thcro
somo candidate whose intellectually and
general worth cnuscd him TO stand out in
bold relief as an exceedingly strong man,
Mr.. Howell might have some difficulty in
holding the Cache delegation intact. but as
the situation is today, Mr.. Howell is nnQues-
tonsbly the superior man from my point
OF view and Mt present Cache citizens are
county pride. Besides. it Is generally con
coded that Mr. Howell's record Com
preceding him and Cache has particular rea-
son for appreciation Of his work.
The foregoing is from the Logan
(Utah) Republican. In it the Ropub-
lican gives indubitable" evidence, or
"indisputabe evidence, of tho recon
citation Effected in Cache by Congress
man Howell. 1t is not becoming to
and The Tribune does not play upon
either the word mdubitable, - or the
word "indisputable, in any levity or
sarcasm toward the Republican. We
use both words because we want to give
the Republican the full credit OF the
situation--it was probably in doubt at
the time, which word to use, and there
fore used n composite. Mr.. Howell was
but recently unpopular in his own
county. Apostle Smoot was recently
discrcdited there. Tho priests get to-
gether and 10 and behold! Smootism is
again the gospel. There is no one of
any Importance with whom to oppose
Howell. and there is serenity like unto
that at the close OF priesthood meet
ing after the faithful have been talked
to, until they are too weary to resist,
When the Republican gets back into
the Howell column, and when it forgcts
that there formerly was very little
county pride in his candidacy, then the
last hope Of resistance to Smootism
vanishes in the North. From now on
the apostle will have triumphal
march, dragging at the chariot wheels
OF his machine, all his opponents among
the Gentiles, and permitting to march
humbly in the rear (where indeed they
have always really marched) his op.
ponents among the Mormons.

THE COTTONWOOD LAKES

The visit made by the water COM
mittee of the Council 10 the lakes at
Big Cottonwood confirms what was
practically understood with respect to
the water supply which might be de-
rived from those lakes, and the compar-
ative inexpensiveDess of the reserve
supply that could by their purchase be
had for the city. The fuller report OF
the City Engineer upon this question
will be awaited with good deal OF
interest. If that demonstrates that
the supply which may be held in re-
serve by means of these lakes is as
great as has been supposed, then
water reserve supply of much impor-
tance will be available
The project for the city TO buy these
lakes is by no means new. it has been
brought forward number of times,
but always the investigation has
stopped short Of any ultimate decision
The matter heretofore has been good
deal like the matter Of the proposed
reservoir in Parley's Canyon at the
forks, including the old Hardy fat. 1t
was fully demonstrated that largo
supply could be stored there, and that
a dam capable Of storing it would cost
no great amount of money. Everybody
seemed to be anxious to get at this
work some four or five years ago, ard
some of the Councilmen were so impa-
tient that they wanted to let the con-
tract right then and there, even though
there was no money in sight in the
city treasury to pay for it. The idea
was broached and insisted upon that a
partial contract should be let, with
successive contracts in contemplation,
whereby the work might be done by
piecemeal, but all at once the proposal
for that reservoir was dropped, and
nothing has been heard of il since, al
though undoubtedly it was entirely
feasible and would have afforded a
needed and easily practicable means

SHOCKING REVELATIONS.

The shocking revelations OF crimip-
ality aud Ineffective supervision Mt the
State Industrial School in Ogden must
arouse a wave of Indignation through
out this State. 1t appears that the
most shameful acts have been COM
mitted and that the looseness of super
vision directly led to the commission
Of those acts. What can be thought,
for instance, of locating camp Of in
corrigiblo girls ont in the hills appar-
entity without any official oversight and
subject to invasion by any chance
party of fishermen that might happen
along7 What can be thought of the
discharge Of inmates of the Industrial
School with the explanation that they
are married, with an apparent desire
to keep secret what is back OF that
marriage and that discharge?
The administration Of Governor Cutler
is weak, ineffective. and a travesty upon
what an Executive administration ought
to he. The Governor himself appears
10 devote his attention TO crying down
certain form Of speculation in order
that another form of speculation in
which he is interested may be more
fully INDUCED in, He knows little or
nothing of public affairs. and could not
be expected to know whether public
institution was being rightly conducted
or not. though he is responsible for it's
management. This horrible scandal at
the Industrial School wou1d undOubt-
cdly defeat him Mt the polls if he could
or should ask for vote OF confidence
at the coming election.
The condition of affairs which would
allow of such shameless indecencies is
one that could not fail to be bitterly
rcprehcnded by every right.thinking
voter IN the State. But it shows the
depth to which the good name Of the
State may be sunk, when it's civil ad-
ministration is prostituted to the use
of an autocratic machine worked by
lawless and law-defying ecclesiasties.
The fact that such ecclesiasticism is
ruthlessly dominant in this State
is enough TO account for almost
any form of vice or crime. That
it has this mslodorous blossoming
through the Industrial School is
something not especially out Of
the order of expectation; but it at
tachcs a shameful stigma to the State
and causes every well meaning citizen
TO bow his head in humiliation and

sTocKsHIPPERs' COMPLAINT

And now it is the turn of the stock
growers to begin proceedings against
the railroads in the matter Of the send
ing Of their products to the Chicago and
other Eastern markets and handling
them therein 'The Texas stock-grow-
ers, who filed complaint with the In
terstate Commerce Commission, al
lege as chief grievance the yardlng
charges in Chicago, which have been n
subject of controversy and complaint
for many years. 1t is said that years
ago the Interstate Commerce Commits
sion held that this yarding charge was
irregular, and ordered its discontinu-
ance, but the railroads ignored the or
der and the matter was taken into court
with no results.
In the past the rule has been that
when conflict of this kind occurred
between the railroads and the Inter
state Commerce Commission. the con-
tention was taken into the Federal
courts, and with almost absolute uni
formlty the decisions have been IN fa-
vor of the railroads and against the
commission. The recent railroad rate
law. however, strengthened the hands
of the commission TO q very great ex-
tent as compared with the former pow
ers which could be legally exercised by
it under the rulings established by the
courts. AS to some Of the questions
that have been decided, undoubtedly
the courts would adhere to their former
rulings, but it is held that in this case
and in a number OF other cases such as
that of the Spokane and Denver COM
plants as TO discriminating charges In
such cities as compared with coast
cities, there are provisions in tho new
law which would put different legal
aspect upon the points involved.
It would seem from fair reading
Of the law that the yarding charges
at the terminal points could be done
away with by order of the Commission,
and that this body would now be sus-
tanned by the law in making such or"
der. If this is true, it would remove
a very much infamed complaint of
long standing which the stockmen of
the West have persistcntly made with
respect to this matter. 1t is to be hoped
that the Commission will find means
very soon to get to n hearing OF this
case, and while it is true that the
courts would probably adhere to num-
ber of their former rulings, it is prac-
tlcally certain that the Interstate Com
merce Commission would adhere to it's
former order, doing away with these,
yarding charges. If so, the stockmen
believe that this time the order would
be held efFectual, and certainly all in
terests in the West which depend upon
the stock industry (and nearly every
industry does depend to some extent
upon it). would wish the stockmen sue
cess in pushing the protest which they
have lodged.
