The social functions Of the day Of

in honor Of Admiral Evans staff and

the roads to get glimpse Of the big

were loaded with visitors. It is ex-

attendance will be the largest in the

Rear Admiral Robley D. Evans and

of this policy, and in his inaugural
address strongly urged the party
platform as arguide in all matters Of
pending legislation, yet these were
swept aside, and legislature almost
unanimously chosen as Democratic
enacted prohibition by the largest
majority ever given by any body of
state lawmakers for such measure!
Great indeed is the power Of public
sentiment when it could thus infu-
ence Democratic legislature to en-
act so important law in direct con-
flict with the party platform. The
Constitution concludes it's remark
ably candid editorial as follows:
And the people Of the state have
thrown political creed and party or
ganization to the winds and written
late before the one-time Georgia
Democracy.
''There are certain things the peo-
pie want and mean to have. They
have begun to have them in the
states; they have begun to have them
in the nation In the accomplish
ment Of these objects, party creed and
party organization will be abandoned
the moment they get in the way.
"Under whatever banner the peo-
pie may align themselves they will
ultimately demonstrate, as they have
begun to do, that regardless Of the
views of leaders, regardless Of party
lines and platforms and creeds, their
voice and will are, at last, supreme. "

There is probably no one form Of
pastime or enjoyment that can con-
tribute more real enjoyment to the
home life than music in vocal or in
strumental form. It is true that in
neither line may musical education be
developed so one would become ex-
pert or care to appear in public, but
if the members Of the family who
possess any ear for music will do the
best they can very satisfactory re-
suits can be secured. There is a
wealth Of instrumental music as we'll

hymns and popular melodies, the sing
ing Of which will add materially to
the harmony and happiness Of the

would need 26 times the amount now
in their possession.
We, as a nation, should have
enough money so that the accumulate
ed wealth could be represented by
real money, and besides this vast
volume in which we conserve our
wealth, we should have still an addi-
tional volume Of money for exchange
purposes.
To show what an enormous volume
can be absorbed by a nation I want
to cite the case of New Zealand. The
government there loaned 25 millions
to the farmers at low rate of in
terest. This money was obtained
from outside the nation and was
therefore q clear addition to the vol
ume they then had It did not undu-
ly affect prices but produced the
greatest prosperity in the island. If
the United States would give to it's
people the same ratio of increase per
capita it would add 6 billions to our
volume, and we could no doubt util-
ize that amount far more readily
than the New Zealanders did the Is
millions provided by their govern
ment.
[ am convinced that our own money
shortage is far greater than ever
dreamed of by most money reform
ers. If the people want to hold their
own money for safe keeping it is
their right to do so; and we should
have such volume that boarding
would not destroy our banking sys-
TEN as it has in this crisis.
The government has poured 200
millions into the banks to save them
and it now proposes to borrow $50
millions more to pour into the same
rathole. And the people will have
the interest to pay and may never
get dollar of this money back from
the banks. Such stupendous folly
was never heard of before. The gov.
eminent has power to make mon
ey-full legal tender currency-and
yet refuses to exercise that power.
The great thinkers Of the nation
have all along been calling our at
tention to our money shortage, but
no heed has been given to them. The
banks have been clamoring for "as-
set currency" to supply the short
age but Congress turned a deaf ear
to their cry; and, bad as the scheme
is, it would no doubt have tided us
over the present panic.
A shortage of money has been the
cause of shortage of railway cars.
A shortage of cars has prevented the
railroads from making the dividends
necessary to float their watered
stocks; and so the slump in stocks
came. This destroyed the collateral
necessary to sustain bank credits.
Bank credit being curtailed and with
drawn caused the shortage in curren-
cy volume; and our exceeding pros
perity made it possible for the peo-
pie to retain in their possession

TO MR. WILLIAMS
Coal Is. Being Sold in Mount
Pleasant at $3.50 in
Regular Way.
To The Salt Lake Herald:

To The Salt Lake Herald:
| In your issue of the 18th inst. YOU
published an article under the caption.
Williams Denies Discrimination" in
which il is made TO appear that cei
tain statements made by this assoc;a-
ton in reference to the coal situation
were untrue.
1t is not our desire or intention to en-
gage in newspaper controversy on
such questions, but inasmuch as tho
verify Of our statement has been de
MED, we feel that it is but fair TO W
that we be permitted the opportunity
Of saying a word in our own defense.
When it was reported TO us by one
Of the most prominent citizens OF
Mount Pleasant that $3.50 per ton was
the price paid for coal i'm that city. we
were inclined to be somewhat skeptical
but TO assure ourselves that such was
the fact, We telephoned at once TO
Mount Pleasant and conferred with one
of the leading merchants of that city.
telling him of the report that was I'm
circulation, and asking him for the
facts i'm the case. He Immediately con-
nrmed the truthfulneSs of it. and re-
nerated that coal was selling at S3.50
per ton, and stating that the reason for
IL was that local dealer, who gets his
coal from an independent mine near
there was selling it at that price. con-
seQdently the Fuel companys repre-
sentative was compelled to do the
same.
TIE inference that perhaps the local
dealer is selling it cheaper than he buvs
1t, or that he is selling il at any old
price hat he chooses to, is absurd
Coal dealers are not in business for
thelr health, nor are they permitted I'm
their contracts with the fuel companies
TO sell at any other price than that set
by the fuel companies There have
been enough instances of local deal
ers making the error of doing this to
warrant the belief that such is not per
mitted.
Regarding the matter of a storage
rate. as mentioned in your article. and
repeatedly asserted in public print Of
late, will say Il at the only storage rate
given was TO the dealers with the ex-
press understanding and explicit in
Structtons that the so cents per ton rate
was not to be given to the consumer.
This statement is absolutely verified
by the committee Of this association
who attempted to secure the reduction
III Iic COlSuinef, ana VINO was told
that the people had no rights in the
matter, by the statements Of repre-
sentatives of both companies 10 vari-
Gus newspaper representatives, by the
statements made by Mr. Williams TO
the writer personally, and, lastly. by
the thousands of citizens of this city
who applied to the local dealers for
the reduction, having formed the i'm
preston that such was in effect. and
the oniV ones who -pctIrad xr-ara

PICTURES OF RUSSIA.
(Chicago NeMs.l

Starvation and the high prices that in
dictate general prosperity are both to be
found in Russia this winter. A traveller.
Henry W. Nevinson, tells of the paradox:
we left Moscow in apparent calm. The
merchants were rejoicing at trade re-
newed; the cadets were making speeches
in their new club in preparation for the
elections; the revolutionists were collect
ing arms. Outside the city came the plots
ana gardens and dairy farms which feed
H. Then We entered one of the starva-
ton districts The wide. bare land
stretched away on every side almost
without ripple. Hero and there the how.
els of a wretched village stood huddled
together In the dirt from which they
sprans. Peasants could be seen creeping
istlessly about. Half Russia is starving
What accounts. then. for the >--raordf-
nary increase OF trader Candles are sell
ing 40 per cent more than ever before so
is vodka. so is everything, and no one
knows why. Merchants puzzle over ii i'm
vain as they rake in their bewildering
profits; some say the foreign loans must
nave Uttered down TO the people: some
that the soldiers returning from the war
are spending their wages: some that the
peasant has gained wider outlook on life
from the douma; some that in despair he
is lavishing his little hoardings on a mer-
ry life though short one. No one knows
We accepted the fact gazed at the starry
ing villages edged with drifts of early
OF Russia further to the south and east
the same writer says: Next morning we
were passing through the broad belt of
the Black Earth whose corn goes to feed
England. Germany-in fact most Euro
pean countries. except Russia Peasants
were out scratching the soft dark soil
with their teams of thin oxen and little
horses. The surface Of the land was now
more broken UP, more fretted into stones
and valleys by the oozing streams and
gradually IL merged into the steppes of
the CossaclSs OF the Don-vast, sweeping
plains. with far distant, blue horizons
giving a sense of space such as | have
only known on the Orange River veldt
No rocky kopjes break the surface but
the careless, muddy roads are the same
the carts just making a new track when
the old one grows impossible. The iso-
lated little grareyards are the same too
but the people are loosely gathered into
haphazard villages of huts. whitewashed
and matched. These are the. houses of
the Cossacks, so dreaded in the streets
so useless in the war
And of Siberia Mr.. Nevinson remarks.
THE other day / met great Siberian
merchant, who has known the country up
and down for forty years. He told me
that the average Of intelligence was so
far higher in Siberia than in Russia that
it seemed like a different nation. He at
tributed this TO the vast numbers of in
tellectuals who have lived in exile there
for their views on politics, and he thinks
that in the future it will be a leading
country in the world. Thus out Of the
cater cometh forth meat
