CLUB License OCCUPATION TAX.

Hon. William A. Wright, comptroller
general of the state, las written very
interesting letter to MIR. Thomas
Thomson, tax collector of Chatham
county, relative to the collecrion of the
$500 liquor club license which was pro-
yided for by the last legislature. Mr..
Thomasoc has had so many inquiries
about the tax and the form of receipt
that he would issue for it, that he wrote
for information to headquarters. Cap
tain Wright tells him in his letter that
the $500 is not to be considered in any
sense of the word a license. 1t is
purely and simply an occupation tax,
he tells Mr.. Thomson, and the receipts
must read accordingly. There can be
no suggestion OF license to sell liquor
about the receipt. 1t must stand as
tax, and as tax only. The clubs will
be known as associations, clubs or cor
porations.

UNIVERSITY MEDICAL COURSE

We are pleased to note, from the
that its medical course has been
strengthened. and not weakened, by
recent developments in that depart
ment.
In view of certain changes made
by the regents In the organization of
the medical course. there seems to
have been doubt in the minds of
some students as to whether they
would receive full credit in other in
stitutions for work done in the two
year medical course at the University
Fortunately. 1t turns out that there
is no reason for such apprehension.
All work done as laid down in the
twc-year medical course will receive
credit in the leading medical colleges
o. the country.
The medical course was organized
in 1906. This was followed the pres
ent year with a second year of medical
work, so that now students desiring
to secure the M. d. degree and be-
come practising physicians can take
the first two years of their work here
at home. Experience is demonstrat-
ing thar these two foundation years
OF medical course can DE done Just
rs thoroughly. and just as effectively,
in a college or n university as In a
medical school that offers complete
medical course. The University oe
Utah desires to give these first two
years of medical work thoroughly and
we'll, and meet the needs of
young men and women of our
state who are looking forward
to the profession of medicine. There
Is no reason why our State University
should not send out men as well pre-
pared in this line as in any other,

graduates are making in other insti.

DANGER OF LYNCH LAW.

The unsafety OF the application of
mob law as a remedy for crime, was
well illustrated the other day in an oc-
currence in New York, In which an in
nocent man came near deaths door.

patches say, and their laughter went

THE PopE's SYLLABUS.

A recent syllabus by Pope Plus X
is considered to be one of the NOSE
important issued from the vatican in
nearly half century. It concerns
errors in the Catholic faith--errors re-
sulting from so-called modernism.
This document does not go very far
In concessions to the rights of free
thought in the Interpretation of the
Scriptures. or In it's liberation of ideas
supposed to be at variance with the
faith of Catholics.
The syllabus is in form denial of
certain propositions put forth by Bib
lical critics and ecclesiastical writer's.
Among the propositions denied, we note
the following:
20. IT does not belong to the church
under any circumstances to pass judg-
lnent on natural science.
I'll, Divine Inspiration does not
guarantee all and every part of Holy
Scripture against error
30 Revelation is nothing else than
mans acquired consciousness of rela-
tlonship with God.
"2l. The revelation which consti-
tutes the subject matter of the Catho-
lie faith was not completed In the
apostolic age.
81. Christ had not the intention Of
constituting the church as a society
to endure on earth through successive
centuries; on the contrary, He believed
that the kingdom OF heaven would
come at the end of the world"
Each OF these propositions we should
desire to see further explicated. We
conceive that the truth does not lie
wholly upon either side OF the i've
We have quoted Each can be viewed
from different standpoints. so as to
change somewhat its meaning and APP
pllcation. In other words neglecting
proposition q as applying only TO the
Catholic faith, we are OF opinion that II
will not concern the faith of the Lat
| ter-day Saints whatever view may be
taken OF propositions 8, II, and 50; while
proposition 20 we would merely amend
so as to read, Revelation is some-
times nothing else than mans ac-
quired or innate consciousness OF re-
latlonship with God"
Generally scriptural and other reve-
laton Is much more than this; but the
term revelation IL fairly applicable 70
cases in which the conscience OF In
dividuals has been specially enight-
ened, yet without any special objective
manifestations.

| find that feddiah-ochre portions were
trhversed by n number of straight dark
| lines. He named these canal. In 1879
! he discovered that some of the canals
| had become double. and In 1881 he In
creased the number OF known canals by
| fresh discoveries
The discovery was disbeleved, just
as the discovery of tho satellites of
Jupiter was rldiculed by the scientists
OF the time: and It was not till 1sse,
when Perrotin Of Nice observed the
canals that tho skepticism of the world
of science as to their reality was dis
PEELED But since then the canals
have been seen and studied by many
astronomers OF note. Among these Pro-
fessor Lowell occupies the chief place.
In 1894 he erected an observatory at
Flagstaff, Arizona, for the purpose of
studying Mars in clear and steady air;
and since that time every opposition
has found Professor Lowell and his
little band of assistants at work at
Flagstaff.
One scientist regards the canals as
optical illusions, but Professor Lowell
maintains that they, as we'll as the So
called GASES. are subject to seasonal
changes. and IL that is fact the
illusion theory must be discarded. The
canals, Prof. Lowell says, depend on
the melting of the snow of the polar
caps. AS we have explained before In
these columns, he regards the lines
,,~l,i Al, NE, AL ~. lo no. nd
of ground fertillzed by the canals. AS
the polar caps melt the canals be-
come darker. A wave of verdure passes,
he says. from the poles down TO the
equator and into the opposite hemi-
spheres. Professor Lowell is of opin-
ion that the canal system is the work
OF the Inhabitants of Mars the planet
is older than the earth, and as much
of its surface appears to be desert land,
it suffers from scarcity of water. To
remedy this the inhabitants have con-
structed this system of canals and
have made their abode In the various
GASES, which are believed to be CEN
tiers of population, where the inhabi-
tants, driven from the deserts by scar
city of water. cluster around the fer
tilted regions.
The question is not without interest to
the earth. If the fate of our own plan
ct is indicated in that of Mars, man
will some day have to solve the problem
of bringing the moisture from the poles
to other parts of the parched earth. 1t
will be long time yet before that will
be an important issue in the councils of
nations. If 1t should ever come, II would
overshadow every other issue. for up
on its solution would depend the ex-
istence of the race.
