ACCIDENTS AND DIVIDENDS.

Ever since the development of me-
chanical traction began to fill the
streets of American cities with high
powered, high-spceded electric cars
in the place of the old horse-cars.
municipal governments have been
struggling with the problem of fore
ing the companies that operate these
machines to pay decent regard to
public safety All their efforts have
been futile. The traction companies
have uniformly acted on the principle
that it is cheaper to kill a certain
number of children and cut off cer-
tain number of arms and legs every
year than to equip their cars with
proper safety appliances. That this
policy is bad in morals has not dis
turbed them, but they may pay more
attention to accommodating evidences
that it is bad business.
Some startling facts bearing on
this subject have just been made pub
lie by the president of the Philadel-
phia Rapid Transit Company. 1t APP
pears that in the year ending June
30, 1907, the company incurred de-
felt of $364, o4S.53 after meeting oper'
ating expenses and fixed charges. In
the same year it paid damage claims
for accidents to the amount of ST.
2I7,5S695. But for this it would have
had surplus of over $S53,ooo instead
of a deficit of a third of a million.
Its damage claims absorbed nearly
seven per cent of its gross receipts
a sum equivalent to two dollars per
share on the stock, now barren OF
dividends. And this does not include
the cost of the company's expensive
legal staff and of its industrious claim
adjusters.

TRUTHS.

A Grand Army organization down

speak of General Robert E. Lee as

an organization is not immune from
asaninity and senility because of hav-
ing a good name.
There is a proposition on foot to
make admission day, January 5th,
legal holiday. Certainly! Utah now
has more holidays than any other
state in the Union, and few more or
less won't matter. There are whole
lot of conspicuous days that might
properly be added to the bunch, such
as Brigham Young's birthday, Lin
coins birthday, completion of the ov-
erland railway, the event at appoma-
tox, the death of George Francis
Train and so on, ad inhnitum.

Because of existing financial ar
rangements, it might be permissible
to say that Utah is having a check

as real money. There doesn't seem
to be much safety, anyway; if you
keep your checks on your person you
are liable to be held up, if you put
them in bureau drawer the festive
burglar is likely to get in his work
on them, and if you turn them in to

say.

The Pope Apprehensive

By Associated Press.
 ROME, September 19.-Anxiety is felt at the Vatican as to the outcome of the demonstrations tomorrow over the thirty.seventh anniversary of the fall of the temporal power of the pa paey and the capture of Rome by the Italians. This year the event is taken as a decided anti-clerical in Vatican circles. It is felt that anti-clericalism is due directly to the influence of the French enemies of the papacy, working directly through Free Masonry, aiming to start an agitation similar to that in France. Pope Plus today said: "l hope the good sense of the Italian peo' pie will prevent them from falling into such trap, and they will remember we are all Italians"

price as will enable producers to make a fair profit, but at the same time enable consumers to buy ahead with reasonable assurance that there will be no great decline. An artifcially high price for copper is fine for the stock holders in mines while it lasts, but the rebound is certain, and then lot of people are sure to get caught and hurt. To curtail production with a view to steadying the market is very likely to make the consumers more suspicious than ever, and cause them to curtail their purchases still more, in the fear that the market may be broken any time by mines and mills starting up.

cURTAILING THE PRODUCTION

The Fl Paso Herald is not very ia. vorably disposed toward the idea of curtailing the production of copper with the hope of advancing the price and making a stable and healthy market It says:
 To curtail copper production by delib- crate act is a most uneconomic pro- ceeding. It could only be justified if copper were being produced at an actual loss, and this is certainly not the case in any of the big properties.
 To close down mines and furnaces in. wolves the laying off of many men and the creating of much distress and un- certainty throughout the communities directly or indirectly dependent upon them for business activity. Moreover it cannot for long change the condition in the metal market, if that condition is based on an actual lessening of de mand. If the withdrawal of purchasers from the market is only temporary causing the slump, the deliberate shut ting down of producing properties will not make things better The consumers well know that the idle mines and mills are likely at any time to be started up and they will adjust their demands to actual needs week by week, letting the producers and smelters take all the risks.

TRIALS THAT NEVER
 REACH THE DOCKET
The Village Justice Does Not Repose on FIowery Beds
 of Ease

The life of Globe justice of the peace is not one long delightful dream upon bed of fragrant roses, whose soft, velvety petals hold the body aloof from bruising rocks and painful thorns.
 Far from itl
 There be a whole lot of people in this fretful, turbulent, tempest-tossed world who imagine, however, that in the dispensation of right and justice as delineated in legal lore, that the viii lage magistrate is all powerful and om- nipotent.
 ''Judge," said meek-eyed matron, addressing Squire Thomas yesterday, "ny domestic life is unhappy, my hus- band don t love me as he should, and I want divorce. !"
 ''Sorry for you, madam" said the affable jurist, "but your troubles are slightly beyond the jurisdiction of this court. Go home and think the matter over again carefully and if you decide that there must be general domestic breaking up, see some lawyer and he will do the rest. v
 The lady was noticeably disappointed, but profusely thanked the court and left the room. Five minutes later an excited Italian stood in the august pres enee.
 "Mr. Judge" he fairly roared, "I we lost my little dog, and won't you give me an order directing the police to find him and take him to my house, The children are driving me crazy and the old woman won t prepare breakfast until 'Neddie is brought home.'
 The court smiled sickly smile and suggested to the son of Italy that if he woald call in an hour or so he d give him search warrant on every butcher shop in town. The applicant for judi eial relief didn t seem to absorb the full significance of the court s remark, but took his departure. The screen door leading into the hall of justice had scarcely bumped the jam when 1t swung ajar again on it's creaking hinges and young Mexican entered with trouble on his mind and weighing down his heart.
 ''You remember, Mir. Justice,' he started in, "about nine months ago you married me to young womanf'
 The court, after scratching his head and counting over, metaphorically, the easy money that had jingled down into tho triangular portion of his trousers pockets, entered plea of guilty, with silent prayer for mercy, as he looked into the troubled face before him.
 "well, judge, she 'didn' t mind me at all after the first week and l want you to give me an order compelling her to obey me-"
 Judge Thomas was amazed
 "What nexti" he exclaimed in audi. ble tones.
 "Young man, l have been married twenty-six years and not for a single second of that period of time have l been able to make my wife obey me. Just how I'm going to help you out is something of a problem. v
 And another visitor, dejected in spirit and with blasted hopes, filed out of the courthouse.

No Minor Miners

During the summer vacation many boys of school age sought and found employment in the mines, and with the close of the vacation are loath to give up money making and go back to their books. But the edict has gone forth and all boys under the required age are being discharged by the companies as rapidly as they are found and the tru- ant officer given their names. This is going to mean a still greater increase in the already large school enrolment. -Eisbee Review.

 CANTON, Ohio, September 19.- Shortly after o'clock this afternoon the body of the late President McKin- ley, guarded by a detail of United States soldiers, was taken from the grave in the Western cemetery to the mausoleum on Monument hill. In order to surround the transfer with as much privacy as possible, visitors and most of the workmen about the tomb were excluded from the grounds. United States soldiers were on guard along the route of the funeral ear. The body of President Mckinley was placed in vault just six years ago.

Their food may satisfy the appetite, but it fails to nourish the body simply because the stomach is not in fit condition to do the work it is supposed to do. It can't digest the food you eat. The stomach should be given help. You ought to take samething that will do the work your stomach cant. do.

A WOULD-BE MOSES


 It's pretty tough when a philan- thropist and reformer imbued with the spirit of the brotherhood of man and his heart brimming over with the milk of human kindness is repulsed in his efforts to benefit mankind. But such things do happen frequently. But it is worse than that when a man answer ing the above description comes to a town or mining camp and upon short acquaintance takes charge of it only to find that he has grabbed live wire. When the Globe Miner started business here several weeks ago it was given out authoritatively that things must change; that it was the only 1s-karat all-wool- -yard-wi and guaran- teed not to rip, tear, rust or run down at the heel friend of the wage worker that ever hit the grit; that it was the benefactor of the miner and the cham pion of the mucker, as we'll as the off cial municipal cancer expert of Globe.
 Didn't it, under another name and in another place, champion the cause of the striking miners Cat so much per ehampion) and did it not then and there hurl invectives at the soulless corporations, until the paper on which it was printed fairly sizzledi Of course the wage worker, who is pretty easy money for a slick grafter, wasn t sup posed to know that on two different occasions the putative Moses who was to lead them out of the wilderness, had fattened his purse by selling out to those who he reviled. But for real easy money the workingman isn in it with the average business man who depends on the former for his own living. That dinner-pail argument is a powerful one it has won more than one national election.
 But the reformer and philanthropist got in bad, his first plunge being in waters the depth of which he had not sounded, and he was repudiated by those whose champion he claimed to be. It may be that the working man of this district is more intelligent than in the former fields of the would-be philan. thropist, and it is certain that he has more "savvy." He probably feels that as long as he must be exploited he pre- fers that it be not done by one claim ing to be of his own kind.
 No man can serve two masters, and he must be very evenly balanced to carry water on both shoulders. Even then one or the other receptacle is bound to tip at some stage of the game. When man or paper claims to be friend of the workingman, the latter must be shown and suspicion must at- tach, especially when the claimant is recent deserter from the workingman' s real or supposed enemy. It is just few short years when the would,be savior of the Globe wageworker was running paper to which he was staked by the biggest mining corporation in Arizona and the avowed enemy of union labor, and then he was hiring printers who could not show union card. It is perfectly natural that the Globe district wageworker would want to be convinced of his present sincerity, especially after his recent failures to deliver the goods, where they were re- quired the most.
