Queen Alexandra owns several fine
chfnchilla and Persian cats. Princess
Alexander of Teck and Prince Mau-
rice of Battenburg also possess valua-
BILE specimens, but the real cat fan
cfer among the royal family of Great
Britain is Princess Victoria of Schles-
wig-Holstein, and the only royal cat
terry is the one now established at
Cumberland Lodge. This has been ar
ranged on the most up-to-date pr:nci

The official figures showing the
trade between the United States and
non-contiguous territories - Alaska,
Hawaii, the Philippines and Porto
Rico-are worth studying The total
in 1906 was 131,000,OOO, against less
than s100,000,000 in 1904. This is
rightly regarded as indicating extraor-
binary growth. And that Uncle Sam
Is a generous patron of his depend
ents' is apparent from the returns
which prove that the United States
buys much more of them than they
buy Of Americans. However, all of
the territories are making bigger and
bigger purchases of this country.

At Christiana, little town in the
Transvaal, about 20 miles above Kim
berley. an alluvial deposit has been
discovered bearing diamonds, and the
entire area has been staked out in
claims, which are granted by the
government, each SO yards square.
The digging" for diamonds, which
are found in the surface deposits, is
somewhat similar to placer gold-min-
ing There some 5000 diamond-min
ers, representing every nationality, are
living in huts and tents with their
families.

London dearly loves court gayety and
display, OF which the British capital
had little during the later years of
the successful but rather quiet reign
of the good Queen Victoria. King Ed
ward, tactful and kindly, gives his
people their wish, and the court gilt
ter is all they could desire. 1t makes
a pleasing setting or background for
the sessions of Parliament and does
no harm to anyone, for while all en-
joy the spectacle they also know that
the real power rests with the house of
commons, which speaks the deciding
opinion of England on all great ques-
tons.

Forgiveness.

Nothing is more moving to a man than
the spectacle of reconciliation. Our
weaknesses are thus Unidentified and
gre not too costly, being the price we
pay for the hour of forgiveness, and
the archangel, who has never felt an
ger, has reason to envy the man who
subdues it. When thou forgivest, the
man who has pierced thy heart stands
to thee in the relation OF the sea worm
that perforates the shell of the mussel,
which straightway closes the wound
with pearl.--Jean Paul LIGHTER.

I know an old man who has had a
great deal of trouble and many losses
and misfortunes, but he started out in
life with firm determination to ex-
tract just as much real enjoyment from
it as he went along as lossible-not in
dissipation, but in wholesome recreation
and fun. He has always tried to see the
humorous side of things, the bright side
and the duty of happiness.

for all that is undesirable. in citizen
ship and unclean in politics. For
candidate for the high office of presi-
dent of the United States TO place him
self even remotely under obligations to
such an individual is to invite sharp
criticism, If not to handicap the candi-
date at the beginning of the race. If it
is fair TO assume that there is an OBJ
legation. it is fair to presume that Taft
will recognize it, and that in the event
of his nomination and election Cox will
have a good deal to say about the dis
tribution of federal offices in Ohio.
Foraker undoubtedly gets out of the
deal everything re set out to attain.
1t is not at all probable that he had
any idea OF taking the Ohio delegation
away from Taft, for Taft has the power
of the national administration behind
him and Senator Foraker is an old
enough hand at the political game 20
know that this influence, coupled with
the patronage power, makes a very
strong combination. Foraker will so
back to the senate without opposition
from Taft or Taft's friends. The
friends of both will declare that each
man has gained a victory. To the inn
partial observer it looks more like a
dogfall.

LEAVEIT TO VOTERS.
Proposition to Submit Galveston
Plan" at City Election.

To the Salt Lake Herald:
Why not submit the Galveston idea
to a direct vote at the next municipal
election in Salt Lake City? Why not give
No" on the proposition of trying this
new plan of government here?
[ was not convinced. when this matter
was before the legislature, that it would
be wise to make this change from our
present to the proposed system of city
government | am not yet convinced that
the new scheme is democratic. or that it
would remedy the evils which we now
complain. But / am open to conviction
and would like to have the question dis
cussed in all its phases In any event
| am not in favor of submitting to hav-
ing a question of so much interest smoth-
cred for purely selfish reasons as seems
to have been the case with this proposed
change in the closing hours of the leg
iSlatuTe.
Since the adjournment of the legislature
1 have heard many regrets expressed
that the experiment could not have been
tried here. 1 have heard many strong
men express themselves In favor of the
change. | read the article by H. J. Has
kell in the Outlook of April 13. in which
the writer tells how the system works
in Houston. Tex. I have learned that
other Texas cities are applying for char
tiers to enable them to adopt the new
system. / have been made aware of the
fact that there is a rapidly growing senti-
ment in favor of the Galveston idea
lieve these things are worthy of consid-
Grafton by the voters of Salt Lake City.
1t is not my idea to make a party issue
of this-there are advocates and oppon-
ents of the new scheme in all the parties.
My idea is TO place the question squarely
before ell the voters of the city and per-
init them to vote it up or down as they
consider best
This opportunity will not be given the
voters unless some such factor as The
Herald will take ii up and advocate it,
1t is proverbia1 that in politics reformers
go by fits and starts while machine poll
ticians go on forever. The danger is that
in this case the advocates of the Gal
weston idea" in this CITY are Disguised
over the recent action of the legislature
and are ready to quit, if they have not al
ready deserted the field.
In this communication I am not commit
ting myself to the Galveston idea" AN
I advocate here is free discussion and fair
play. NJ. F. CUNNINGHAM.

Our morning American" contempo-
rary continues to harp on the outcome,
unfayorable to the city, of damage
suits caused by the establishment of
new grades for streets and sidewalks.
This always unfair contemporary
would have the public believe that the
Democratic Morris administration was
responsible for the grades and the law
suits. We believe the. public knows
better, but in order to keep the record
straight it is proper to point out that
the grades on which the complaints
were based were established more than
ten years ago and at least eight years
before the Morris administration took
charge of municipal affairs. The pres
ent city engineer might be able to en-
tighten our contemporary further on
this point All that the Morris admin
istration had to do with the matter
was to undertake and complete the inn
provements in accordance with the al
ready established grade. If this be
treason the Americans" are hereby
given our free permission to make the
most of it.

COX 10 The RESCUE.

The row that has been going on in
Ohio between Senator Foraker and
Secretary Taft appears to have been
settled through the friendly interview
ton of George B. Cox, the disreputable
and discredited political boss of Gin
cinnati. According to the reported
terms of the agreement. Foraker is to
let Taft have the Ohio delegation to
the next Republican national cOnven-
ton, and Taft is to keep his hands off
the Ohio senatorial fight. The people
of Ohio do not seem to have been con-
suited at all.
Cox is the man that Taft journeyed 10
Ohio not many months ago to beat.
And he did beat him and his gang so
thoroughly that Cox announced his re-
tirement from politics. When he was
asked as to his part in the Foraker
Taft agreement, he declared that he
was still out of politics, but that he
could not absolutely refuse to advise
with friends" The fact that they per-
mitted Cox to interfere in any way in
their fight is altogether discreditable to
both Taft and Foraker
The Cincinnati boss is known as q
corruptionist and a CRATER. He stands

THE eoLDFIELD VERDICT.

1t is not putting the case too strongly
to say that the verdict of the jury at
Goldfield in the case of Smith and Pres
ton, charged with the murder of the
restaurant keeper. John P Silva, will
encourage assassination. Preston was
charged with the actual commission of
the crime; Smith was accused of being
an accomplice. The case against Pres
ton was clearly made out. Indeed, he
admitted on the witness stand that he
killed Silva, but he claimed that he
fired in self -defense. Preston, standing
on the sidewalk in front of Silvas re-
staurant, fired upon Silva through a
doorway.
Silva was in his own place of bust
There was not a scintilla of evidence
at the coroner's inquest, though sew
eraI eye-witnesses testified, to show
that Silva had a weapon of any sort.
1t was shown that he went to the door
and requested Preston, who was an 1.
w. w. picket stationed in front of the
restaurant to keep customers out of it
because Silva would employ no 1. w.
w. men, 70 go away and let him attend
to his business.
He then turned back into the restau-
rant. AS he did so Preston fired twice
and killed him. 1t was as brutal MUIR
der as ever disgraced the criminal his
tory of any state. Silva may have
made a threatening demonstration with
his hands, but he fired no shots and
nobody among the witnesses at the
coroner's inquest was willing to swear
that he had a revolver. After the MUIR
der Preston ran away. He was hidden
all that night, the murder having beer
committed early in the evening, and
not until late the next morning was he
arrested. For some time he protested
his innocence of the crime. There was
no idea in his mind of the self-defenst
plea then. That was an afterthOught.
All Goldfeld was excited over the kill
ing. 1t was generally. recognized as an
unspeakable ASA ssination. Member:
of the. I. W. w. themselves protested
that they would like to hunt down the
murderer and that they would gladly
assist in bringing about his punish
ment. And the end of it all is a verdict
of murder in the second degree, with g
recommendation of mercy. Smith
whose connection with the case as {
conspirator was not so clearly estab-
lished, gets off with a. verdict of invol'
untary manslaughteT.
1t is such verdicts as this that make
a joke of murder and a mockery of law
Either Preston and Smith should have
been hanged or they should have beer
acquitted. The jury. which had prob
ably received some threatening letters
probably thought 1t safer TO play il
with both prosecution and defense. 1t:
action is an indication that the much
Wanted pay streak of courage AROUND
GoIdfeld has pinched. Some real mel
are badly needed in the great golC
camp.
