n. II. PERRY.

In life he was true, with an unwav-
ering, devoted, answering loyalty to
those he loved. As the shadows closed
about him he journeyed unafraid into
them. he thought of his friends and
caused to be sent 10 them MESA ges
conveying expressions of affection.
Sweet be the sleep into which he has
entered, peaceful the rest. that is his.
Many are the hearts that will be
saddened by the death of d. n. Peery.
And those who mourn will not sorrow
for him, but for themselves. For many
months he had suffered the agonies of
disease that killed him by inches. In
the last year of his life there was
hardly a waking hour that was free
from pain, and when he slept his rest
was broken by the progress of his mall
ady. Through it all, though he must
have seen as no one else could see the
slow progress of Deaths messenger, he
went uncomplainingly about his work,
fighting without a murmur the grim
battle.
know what it is to suffer. There will
be no more pain-racked touches for
him, no more days of torture. That at
his aGe-he was only little past 40
he should be called is a tragedy only
in seeming, only as any death is a
tragedy. For, would those who knew
him best and, as a consequence, loved
him most, have wanted him to endure
longer the torment he suffered? The
tragedy is in the fact that he did suffer
so much.
1t is not easy for this writer, on the
threshold of a grief that is closely per-
sonal, TO speak of Henry Peery's life.
The keynote of his character was his
devotion to his friends. He lived the
advice of Polonius. THE friends thou
hast, and their adoption tried, grapple
them TO thy soul with hooks of steel
This he lived as few men we have ever
known have lived it. There was moth
ing within his power that he would not
do for a friend. no sacrifice too great,
no test 10 which he did not measure
fully UP.
He was more often misunderstood
than most men, misunderstood often
when his motives were of the kindliest,
concealing behind an exterior that was
sometimes brusQue a heart that was
full of affection, of generosity and of
a sincere desire to be helpful. Henry
Peery did more good in the world than
many man who makes a boast of his
and fiaunts his benevo-
lence TO the four corners of the earth
If his benefactions had been crimes
Henry Peery could not have concealed
them more carefully. His closest |
friends never knew a 1.-THE of them

So Henry Peery will be mourned and |

many a day because a friend who was

THE PosToFFIcE BURDEN.

The report of the postmaster general.
just submitted TO congress, shows a
deficit for the fiscal year ended June
80, 1907, of little more than s6,5OO,OOO
This is a considerable smaller deficit
than has been reported since the ope-
rations of the department assumed
very large proportions, say in
the last fifteen or twenty years. And
the truth is that with reasonable man
agement and proper bookkeeping meth
DDS the postoffice business of the coun-
try would show a profit instead of an
annual deficit.
During the first six months of the
fiscal year covered by the report the
agricultural department conducted an
experiment, with a view to ascertaining
just how much it's postage would
amount TO if it were compelled to pay
postage. According to the record near
ly 100000 packages were sent out,
weighing, in round numbers 622. 600
pounds. The postage on this would
have been sec, 45O. But it is pointed out
that the heavy business of the depart
ment is done during the last six months
of the fiscal year.
This is accounted for by the fact that
in the spring the congressman's fancy
lightly turns TO thoughts of seeds, free
seeds for his constituents, seeds that are
paid for by the government. There is
also a vast deal of other business, so
that the estimate of 10000 pounds for
the year is not unreasonable. This
would bring the total postage that, I'M
der proper bookkeeping system,
would be charged to the agricultural
department, up TO $4,000 a year.
All OF the other government depart
menJs should be charged with their
postage bills and the postoffice depart
ment should be credited with the
amounts. But, after all, these are COM
paratively small items. The great
abuse is the congressional ranking
privilege. Under their franks the con-
gressmen send out annually thousands
of tons of matter Some of this is
strictly personal. Cases are on record
Of congressman sending bundles of
soiled clothing through the mails home
to be washed
The bulk Of this free graft, though. is
the distribution of campaign docu-
ments. A congressman makes a speech
that nc thinks should set the world on
fire. He straightway sends out, at the
expense of the government. thousands

LITTLE BABY
CURED Of ECZEMA
Parents Applied to Hospitals and
Doctors but Could Get No Re-
Iief-Grew Worse Under Doctors
Prescription - Friends Recon-
mended Cuticura Result
A SPEEDY AND
PERMANENT CURE

eve express TO you herewith our best
thanks for the cure of our baby from
eczema. The eczema appeared when
the child was three months old.s We
applied TO several doctors and hospitals,
each Of which gave us something differ
ent every time, but nothing brought re-
het. A physician recommended salve
which we threw into the fire after two
days use as the eczema became worse
50 that the baby scratched his face. At
last, one of our friends recommended to
us Cuticura Soap and Cuticura ONT
ment. A few days afterwards improve
ment could be noted. Since then we
have used nothing but Cutieura Soap
and Cutieurs Ointment, and now the
baby Is six months old and is quite cured.
Ali that we used was one cake of Cuti-
cura Soap and two boxes Cuticura ONT
ment, costing in all SIPS. Even the
poorest man can pay that instead of
throwing it into the doctors lap. l
myself only make twelve dollars a week
as a teamster, but l recommend the
Cuticura Remedies strongly to all moth
ers whose children suffer from such dis
eases. They are cheap, harmless and
good. c. F. Kara and Wife, 343 East

A POOR SYSTEM,

Chief OF Police Pitt a few days ago
appointed some detectives and patrol
men. The Herald presumes they were
chosen because they seemed to possess
the qualifications necessary for the
places they were intended to fill. But.
because he did not consult the .politi-
clans, the police committee of the city
council called the chief upon the car
pet" and told him he must never again
dare 10 appoint a patrolman without
consulting that patriotic and high
mined organization.
We are informed by a supposedly re-
liable authority, the chief newspaper
supporter of. the American" party,
that the police committee held up the
chiefs appointments because II was
not fully advised as to whether or not
the selections viii be satisfactory TO
the district chairmen Of the districts
in which the appointees reside" And,
further, also that appointees must be
satisfactory TO the American organi-
cation in the districts from which the
appointments are made"
1t is evidently the purpose of the
politicians in the council 10 compel the
resignation of Chief Pitt. for surely no
self-respecting police chief can permit
any district chairmen TO control an
epointments in his department. To be
satisfactory 10 a district chairman an
appointee must necessarily figure in
? n
: That is the district chairman's invaria-
bic test So that the man who is COM
petent, the man who is reliable, the
man who proposes to devote his time
TO the protection Of life and property,
has no chance with a district chairman
when weighed against the man who can
rustic votes for his party.
Now, if that is TO be the test for ap-
pointments to the police force, in Salt
Lake City, and the challenge has been
boldly thrown out. the fact should be
given the widest possible publicity. The
people Of Salt Lake City have a right
70 know whether the police department
Is to enforce the law or whether it is
10 De political machine. 1t is a self
evident proposition that "a police de-
partment that is a political machine
loses its effectiveness in the preserva-
ton of order, the protection of life. the
prevention of crime and the detection
OF criminals.
A police chief who must run to a dis
trict chairman and secure his consent
TO the dismissal of one man or the APP
pOfntment of another cannot maintain
discipline, he cannot compel obedience |
10 orders and as far as real authority
is concerned, he might just as we'll go |
away on a long journey and leave in |
his place a photograph. We submit |
that unless a chief of police is given |
the fullest latitude in appointments and
dismissaIs he cannot have the respect |
OF his men.
any faith in Chief Pitt it should have
ne courage to come honorably and
honestly out into the open and demand
Ais removal. There surely must be in
me organization some individual who
IAN be trusted to run the police de-
Dart.nent in a satisfactory manner.
And by this we mean a manner salts
