As The Nnws predicted the blame fol-

AS THE NKws predicted the blame for
the accident at Atlantic City has been
placed on poor employee. while the prin-
cipal, the Railroad Company, escapes
censure. At least that Ia the case so far
as the coroner's jury is concerned, but
the general public are inclined to think
that the old man who was In charge Of
the bridge is not so culpable as the verdict
indicates. There is considerable sympathy
for the bridge tender upon whose shoulders
such load has been placed and he has
many friends who will aid him in defend
ing his good name. The Jury found that
there was fault in the construction of the
road, but the finding ended there. There
is a rule in some cases that principal is
bound by the acts of his employees and In
this instance that would seem to bring
the railroad company into thecase They
will ge: in, however, in the way Of paying
damages. unless they bring evidence to
show 'contributory negligence.

WHAT TROUBLES

Herr CheCkmeiSter DarmeT, diSbuTS-
ing agent and general manager Of cam
paigns for the American" party, list
auch schreckliches heisz, and we don't
blame him. That Spite bube. Fred
Leonard, and that other platdeutOh
straddIer, Frank Hines, have got on
the Checkmeister's mind in a tender
place. and he would call ii schones wet
ter if they could be canned and put on
the shelf where he thinks they belong
The gravamen Of Darmer's objection
to the aforesaid officehoIders is their
disIoyalty to the American" party
Leonard. so Darmer says, didn't root
for the ticket, and did boost for one
Lynch, who thought he was running
for mayor on the Republican ticket.
Hines offense was equally serious, in
Darmer's eyes, in that the watermaster
sought a perch exactly in the middle Of
the fence and staid there as though he
had been fastened with anchor bolts.
To the common citizen, Leonard's ap-
pointment is and has been inexplicable-
He was not conspicuous in his services
to the American" party during the
campaign; for that matter he didn't
help any party much If he tried-and in
this case he didn't try. In the second
place he is not qualified for the posi-
ton of chairman of the board Of public
works. either by nature, education or
associations. Compared with Colonel
Wall, his predecessor in office, he is
what is commonly known as a dub. The
only reason for his appointment which
anybody can imagine is the mayors
exceptional facility in selecting the
wrong man for any important office;
and this would fit Leonard's case to a
dot
AS for Hines, he was appointed orig
| inally by Thompson as a Republican,
| held over under Morris, a Democrat,
and has succeeded so far in freezing
| to his place as a Democrat. Any man
who can make lightning changes with
Hines celebrity, is entitled to hold on
/ forever, whether he is competent or
not. Anyway. competency cuts so little
/ figure with this administration, that
/ Hines ought to be retained on general
/ principles.

THE VOTE ON STATEHOOD.

The joint statehood bill comes up for
a final vote in the senate today and
western people will watch with interest
the attitude Of the western senators on
the question. 1t may be taken for
granted in advance that no western
senator who has due regard for the
right will vote to make New Mexico
and Arizona come in as one state. Ger
tainly, no senator from whatever state
will vote to compel the two territories
to come in as a unit without giving the
people of those territories an opportu-
nifty to express by vote their views on
a matter which affects them so vitality
All of the administration excuses
for attempting to force a union have
been published and defended fully in
the senate; yet no senator has, so far,
had the temerity TO plead anything but
partisan reasons for compulsory joint
statehood. Sifted down. the one reason
advanced for the administration policy
is the fear that both New Mexico and
Arizona might elect Democrats to the
United States senate if they were ad-
fnlIteQ separately Inc Bled IS so
puerile that even the presidents parti-
san advocates have been put to it to
find arguments to support their posi-
ton.
For a senator from Utah, or Wvo-
ming. or Nevada. or Idaho or, indeed,
any western state TO support the joint
statehood bill is incredibly cowardly.
Imagine a Nevada senator joining with
the men in the senate who have de-
rided their state as a "sagebTush rotten
orough''-imagin him joining with
them to defeat separate statehood for
the men who have built empires amid
the mountains and deserts of New Mex
leo and Arizona. under conditions
which would have discouraged any but
an American pioneer or prospectorI
Imagine a wyoming senator support
ing the argument that the territories
now seeking admission as states have
not population. or wealth or intelli-
genee enough to entitle them 10 enter
the Union separately When the same
charge was made TO defeat Wyoming
admission. the men of the west stood
back of the territory and fought sue
cessfulIy for its rights. It would be
little short of ingratitude and coward

ANOTHER DOSE OF "REFoRM."

In compelling the resignation of
Captain Workman, assistant chief,
from the fire department, the "Ameri
can" administration has reached the
limit of partisan decentralization of the
public service. Workman has been
connected with the department since
the days of the volunteer corps, nearly
thirty years Of continuous, efficient
service being marked to his credit.
Whether he was a partisan or not
and it is claimed he was friendly to
the "Americans"-his record entitled
him to retention in Office. He had been
faithful in season and out Of season;
he had risked his life in the dangerous
duties of the department; he had been
a model of the qualities which go to
make for effectiveness in the depart
ment.
In all the changes of administration
the mans record has won him promo
ton and permanency Of tenure, and it
remained for a reform" administration
to turn him out despite his claims to
reward for good work done.
There may be other cities where such
an outrage would be possible, but if
there are, the fact is carefully con-
cealed for very shame. In Chicago.
where politics is supposed to be at low
ebb, f1remen not only are secure in
their positions during good service, but
they are given a pension on retirement
after such a term as Chief Workman
has served. His dismissal is notice to
every employee Of the city that COM
potency, honesty, efficiency can hope
for no consideration, no appreciation;
that the only requisite for public en-
ployment is servile support of the party
which won its election on the bogus
claim that Il meant to reform the
administration Of city affairs.

The late Speaker Reed, when discuss

ages death was making in the older
membership of congress, once said;

He's getting old, but the Almighty could
never find him in one place long enough
to put his finger upon him.
This tells the story of General Wheel

everything nervOusly and rapidly. When
he arose to speak in the house, where
he served as a member from Alabama,
he invariably said:

word
1t always brought forth a laugh from
his colleagues He talked rapidly
that II was almost impossible for a
stenographer to take him down. On
one occasion while in congress the gen.
eral lost his voice in the midst of a
speech, but continued the motions of
talking for some minutes, his white
beard bobbing up and down, to the
amusement of 100 members, al lof whom.

THE METALS,
IITAH's MIGHTY OPPORTUNITIES

Evidently, the big men of the mining
world have walked Up to the fact that
Utah offers opportunities in their line,
and they are dropping in casually, just
to look around and see what they can
see. Some Of them have been here in
advance Of the rush and discovered
that the field is one of the biggest in
the country. practically undeveloped
and so inviting that it is a question
only of a short time when the heaviest
operators in America will find it TO
their interest TO invest here.
Some of the visitors have expressed
surprise that such chances for success
full operation should have been neglect
ed as long as they have; but to the
resident citizen this neglect is easily
explained. With a few notable excep-
tions. the properties owned by Utah
people have been so rich and so profit
able that no attempt has been made
TO exploit them or float them outside
the state Until Bingham developed so
marvelously as a copper camp local
capital was exceedingly conservative,
and it has not yet gained the confidence
shown by outsiders in operations on a
large scale.
Fortunately for the state, it has an
estab lished reputation for conserva-
tism and straightforwardness in min
ing operations which is valuable in in
spring capital with faith in the safety
of investments here. The questions
which disturb values I'm some other re-

Nowhere in the world can be
found the equal in farm lands
which Blue county boasts-lancs
that will produce anything that
can be grown in the United States,
and in some instances, two crops
the same year can be successfully
grown, such as alfalfa, clover,
Irish potatoes and garden truck.
Blue county, more especially
the sections closely tributary to
Durant, grows as fine fruits as
Arkansas, and in many instances
better, the soil being particularly
adapted to tender plants. Peaches,
apples, pears, plums, cherries,
nulberries, apricots, nut trees,
berries and grape vines grow
prolificly and produce abund-
antly. There are over a thousand
acres in fruits about Durant and
the growers are we'll pleased with
the results. Strawberries, rasp-
berries, dewberries, gooseberries
and currants grow especially fine
in size and flavor. There are
neaily 800 acres in berries about
Durant and are proving most
profitable crops. There is no bet
ter opening for the fruit growers
than in Blue county. Flowering
shrubs, tender plants, evergreens
hedge plants, vines, roses and
shade trees grow fast and to good
size with but little attention.
The potato crop has proved to
be one of the most profitable that
grows; it natures early and is
shipped to northern markets; our
lands produce from 150 to 250
bushels to the acre, and always
sure of a second crop. Truck
farming is proving very profit
able, as vegetables, berries and
vine CROPS of all kinds do we'll
