SOUTHERN PART OF THE coUN-
TY IN LINE.

The Merchants and Manufacturers
association made very successful
get acquainted" trip to Sandy on
Monday evening, the special object of
which was to organize the merchants
and others on plan similar to the
Merchants and Manufacturers associa-
ton. The party, numbering consider
ably over hundred left the Short
Line depot at $3.50 o'clock accompan-
led by Held's band. They received
a most enthusiastic welcome not only
from the Sandy people, but from dele
cations from Draper, Alta, Bingham
Junction, Riverton and other towns
down the line. A good way for people
to get acquainted is to break bread to-
gether. On this occasion that plan
was adopted. A fine supper was
served at Sandy, speeches were made
by President Hewlett and others and
a good deal was done in the way of
getting acquainted.
The Merchants and Manufacturers
association has worked up a great deal
of enthusiasm among the business men
and manufacturers of the state. They
have determined to pull together for
the upbuilding of Utah. Already the
good effect of their efforts are being
felt.
The brother association was organ
lied under the name of the Jordan
Commercial & Producers association"
with officers as follows: Heber A
Smith, president; William Cooper, vice
president; Thomas Page, secretary, and
James Jensen, treasurer Samuel
Ebart, together with the officers of
the association, will for the coming
year act as the executive committee.
/. AS directors of the association the
following were elected: Alta, A. ia
cobson; Bingham Canyon, c. l.. Coun-
tryman; Bluff Dale, A. Il. Mason; But

There are still one or two houses in
England where quaint ceremonies of
older days are strictly maintained.

"Mothering Sunday"

The fourth Sunday in Lent, which
is also known as "Simnel Sunday" Is
called "Mothering Sunday" as well. In
many of the country districts of Eng.
land the young people who are in ser.
vice and various other employments
visit their parents on this day, and
the afternoon services are largely at
tended by girls and their mothers.
This custom is very strictly observed
in Monmouthshire and there is much
to be said in favor of it.

TRUTH ABOUT ADVERTISING.
Temptation to Exaggerate Should Be
Resisted by Writers.

There is no good thing in this world
that is not misused, and this is as true
of advertising as of anything else. The
temptation to stretch things" in tel
ing story of business-whlch is truly
what an advertisements isis as
strong as in telling an ordinary yarn,
and this leads to untruth and decep-
ton, with the consequent result thai
the average advertisement is discount
ed as to its most important state
ments, and in many cases properly so.
The firm that succeeds in sticking to
the exact truth in it's advertising and
convinces the people of the fact has
learned the secret of making adver-
Using pay, providing it also knows
how to tell the truth in timely and
convincing manner.
A single business man in town who
brazenly disregards setting forth eX-
act facts in his advertising to all the
rest and to the newspapers as well,
so that it would be a splendid law IL
it could be made an indictable offense
for dealer to make any statement in
print not easily substantiated No
doubt there would be a revolution in
present advertising methods, but the
result would be healthful, and in the
end more profitable to all concerned.
No town ever amounts to much with.
out one or more good newspapers to
tell the stories of business. This can
be set down as indisputable. The ad-
vent of a newspaper, therefore, often
marks the beginning of a towns bust
ness prosperity and general awaken
ing, but it is doubtful whether the
newspaper is given this credit. 1t is
often true that a nonadvertiser in a
live town does a good business-it is
very natural that he shouldn't the
credit is not due to himself or to his
not advertising, but to those who do
spend their cash literally with the
newspapers and bring the tide of peo-
pie to the place to trade. Once there
they are very likely to drop into stores
that do not advertise, particularly in
certain lines of business not usually
extensively advertised. Secondly, then,
it is the advertisers who help make a
town progressive-in helping their
own business they help all business.
The sum of the whole question is,
therefore, that public spirited and dis
corning people should support adver-
Using firms and at the same time in
sist on their telling the truth. If the
people like to be deceived-and some
appear to-they are apt to be accom-
modated, but if merchants know that
their announcements are critically
watched and that their untruthfulness
reacts on their business no other in
centive toward reformation is needed
The people can. if they wish. compel
truthful stories of business to be told
and thereby raise the value of adver
Using to everybody-the merchant, the
newspaper, the town and the COM
munity in general-Taneytown (Md.)

L
News and The Times deny emphatical-
ly. The Times denounces the action
of Governor Macdonald in permitting
the accused men to be taken from the
State without due process of law"
and The Republican says that The
Times is furious because the prisoners
did not have the opportunity to find
some technical flaw in the procedure
which would furnish pretext for dis
charging them on habeas corpus and
thus effectually prevent a trial on its
merits" The News prints the story
that Orchard was not union man, but
the tool of the Mine Owners Associa-
tion," the bitter opponents of the min
ers, and it adds that it will refrain
from any editorial opinion until all
the facts are known. The Republican,
which seems at this early hour to have
tried and condemned the leaders of
the Miners Federation, holds them re-
sponsible for good many of the
crimes in Colorado, and declares that
they attempted to establish the will
of the association as the law of every
mining camp in the Rocky Mountains"
To quote:
"The last act in the terrible tragedy
of Colorado's attempt to maintain its
authority against the conspiracy of
the Western Federation of Miners to
rule in Cripple Creek, Telluride, and
other mining districts has begun. The
conspiracy of murder, by which some
members of the Federation hoped to
|reestablish their power and to wreak
vengeance upon judges and other Off

exposed, and it now remains to deter
mine what punishment shall be as
sessed against the conspirators.
"The Western Federation of Miners
is a conspiracy against the freedom
of every man to work when he sees
proper to do so and an attempt to es-
tablish the will of the association as
the law of every mining camp in the
Rocky Mountains. The Cripple-Creek
strike was called for the purpose of
forcing recognition of the authority of
the Western Federation and in no
sense to improve the condition of the
men who were at that time working in
the mines of the district Because 1t
failed in this particular, murder was
resorted to as means of intimidating
working men and their employers who
maintained the dignity of the State
and enforced the law.
"The Federation having been over
thrown completely in Colorado, its
members retained no hope of regain
ing their footing except by establish
ing a reign of terror through the use
of explosives. This was the conspira-
cy, and it extended over the entire
Rocky Mountain region. .....
at was a conspiracy against the
freedom of every citizen, and especial
ly against the right of every man to
work without waiting for the consent
or d. >proval of any organization. Colo
RADIO called a great victory for civil
liberty when it suppressed the dis
orderly element in Cripple Creek and
Telluride and demonstrated that the
law was stronger than any criminal or
ganization or conspiracy But the fruits
of that victory would be lost were the
conspirators to be permitted to re-
venge themselves upon the officials by
whose courage and devotion to duty
this campaign for law and order was
restored. Literary Digest.

Needle Removed From Heart.

A remarkable escape from death is
that of a girl who was admitted to the
st. Bartholomew Hospital in Roches-

by some accident she had a needle

markable operation was performed at

Washington and Lincoln.

Great things haveh appened to our
nation in the month of February.
But there are two days in it which
have a luster all their own: the
twenty-second, because on that day,
in the year 1882 was born George
Washington; and the twelfth, be-
cause on that day was born Abraham
Lincoln in the year 1909. For the
sake of that which these two men
wrought, to make and to keep these
United States a nation, these two
birthdays shine amongst all the days
of the calendar like stars of the first
magnitude.
There have been twenty-five Presi-
dents of this nation. Washington
was the first, Lincoln the sixteenth.
Almost without exception our Presi-
dents have been good and patriotic
men. Compared with any other line
of rulers in any country, they are
probably superior in intelligence and
character. Some of them were fam
GUS men whose names and thoughts
are factors in our national life to-day
But there is that in the service of
these two which mas placed them in
the esteem of their countrymen
above and apart from all the others,
and their names, like their birthdays,
are linked together.
This praise was not always theirs

Two Trains Smashed Up.

Helena Mont, February IA
runaway freight train on the North
ern Pacific Railway came down a
mountain side this morning and
crashed into passenger train. AS a
result, five are killed and three in
jured. One of the injured is likely
to die. The wreckage caught fire.
All the passenger cars were des-
troyed. The dead are Charles
Bricknel, conductor, of Helena; j. F..
Robertson, bridge inspector, of
Helena, and Edward Jezick, express
messenger, of Helena, and two pas
sengers, whose names are not known.
jeff Brown, brakeman, was NOR
tally injured. Heroic efforts were
made to rescue those imprisoned in
the wreck before the flames could
reach them and all were gotten out
except Jezick. He was pinned down
by wreckage and, although the res
cuers were near enough to speak to
him, they were unable to free him
before he was reached by the flames.
The impact was such that the pas
senger train was literally lifted into
the air and nearly the entire freight
train derailed. The freight got be-
yond control near the top of noun
tain and with every mile it gained
momentum. 1t had straight stretch
of fourteen miles and the train at
tanned speed of 120 miles an hour.
The passenger train was just pulling
out of the depot at Helena when the
freight crashed into it. In an in
stant both trains were an almost in
distinguishable heap of wreckage
and mass of flames. That any per-
son on either train escaped alive is
considered miracle.

Wealth OF Russian Imperial, Family.

. All members of the Imperial
family have large fortunes invested
out of Russia, usually in France,
England and the United States.
The Grand Duke Michael Nicolaie-
witch, and the Grand Duke vladimir
Alexandrovitoh are believed to be
the richest members of the Imperial
family, next to the Czar himself,
whose resources are practically inex-
haustible, as he draws ad libitum on
the Imperial treasury and is the
owner of vast estates which include
valuable mines and forests.
