why the Hansen & Hayes Triple can
be used with more profit to the opera
tor than any other device:
1t is quicker in action than any other

1t is strong, free from complications,
and may be operated by any class OF
labor.
The first cost is practically the only

1t requires no steam or motive power

Where old cars and tipples are al

be installed with moderate cost and old
cars remodeIed at will of operator.

GuITAH-MADE" AND PUBLICITY.

One of the Salt Lake newspapers has
published an interesting communica-
ton from the secretary of the Manu-
facturers' association on the subject
of Utah-made goods, in which he calls
attention to the fact that a man has
been making lead pipe in this city for
years, yet few people know of it, and
fewer still have called attention to the
fact.
This remarkable condition Of affairs
is not as surprising as 1t seems. So
far as can be discovered, the maker
of the lead pipe has never announced
his enterprise in print; in other words,
he has not advertised his business
Presumably he has been waiting for
folks to look him up and buy his pipe
just as some merchants expect buy
ers to come TO their stores voluntarily
much business as he wants and thinks
he doesn't need to publish his wares;
but it is certain that he could double
or treble or quadruple his output IL he
spent little money on judicious pub
licity and makes the right kind of pipe
at fair price.
If he will stop a minute to think
about other lines. he will realize that
the people who do the most business
are those who advertise most, and new
er quit advertising. If a woman goes
to Chicago for shopping she thinks
about Marshall Fields establishment.
Why? Because Field was one of the
great advertisers. If she goes to New
York, her first thought is of Wanna
makers or Mays. The buyer who
needs any particular article Invariably
thinks of the concerns that advertise
such articles. and he goes TO them.
you recall the names OF candymakers
who use the newspapers to tell about
their goods. No matter how common
the article, whether it be coal or soap
or crackers-you invariably have some
makers name in mind when the arti-
Gle is mentioned.
No man or concern ever reaches the
point in his business where advertis-
ing is unnecessary. The Standard Oil
company has a practical monopoly, so
has the American Tobacco company,
vet both these concerns use printers
| ink to extend their business. create a
demand and retain their monopolies.
The lead pipe maker of Salt Lake,
with the raw material close at hand
and a good market protected by high
| freight rates, might just as well have
big establishment and control big
trade as not; but he can't expect con-
sumers TO ask for his pipe. or dealers
to hunt him up when he is content TO
remain unknown rather than spend
money for publicity.

After seven years of hard work w.
L. Hansen and Alfred Hayes Of Coal
vile, Utah, have perfected their in
ventiOn of d device for mine cars that
is a signal improvement over any car
tipple now in existence. The use of
this car tipple does away with prac-
tically all the difficulties connected
with getting coal and ore out Of the
mines and on the cars.
Successful experiments have been
conducted with the new invention with
the result that the tipple seems likely
to supersede all other similar devices
now in use. State Coal Mine Inspector
John Z. Petit, after inspecting the
device and viewing ii in operation, ex-
pressed a high opinion of the tipple.
An especially strong feature of the
arrangement is that 1t does away with
the seepage coal along the track and
reduces the danger of coal dust explO-
sions. Mine operators and mechanics
will meet today and Monday in the
saiesroom OF the Mine & Smelter COM
pany in the Dolly block annex to eX-
anime the apparatus and 10 discuss
its good points. Inspector Petit will
be present.
A company has been organized with
a capital stock of $50 10000. 1t is COM

supplied the Republican party to beat
our brains out. The next president
would be a Democrat and the next
congress Democratic If the Democratic
party had not already been given Or
ders not to make the tariff paramount.
The last Democratic president was
elected on the tariff issue. The next
Democratic president was elected on
the tariff issue. The next Democratic
president, If there is to be another
Democratic president, will be elected
on the tariff issue. The octopus has
been chased and all that. Who has
put a cheaper rag on his back or a
cheaper mouthful down his throat
Who has found living cheaper? Who
has not found Ii harder to make buckle
and tongue meet, Notwithstanding this
prosperity that is so boosted?
Why? Why? Why? The tariff
which protects the products of labor
that belong to capital, while allowing
free trade In labor itself, that comes
from abroad at the rate Of 1850. 900 per
year. But what is the use? The fat
has gone forth to subordinate the tariff
to octopus chaSing-and the result will
be the same
And so the Ohio Republicans are
perfectly safe in cutting one another
threats. The Democrats will not be al
| lowed to avail themselves of the ad-
vantages that family row offers.

nIxIE's OIL FIELD.

News that oil in large quantity and
virgen City, Utah, has caused eensid-
cradle excitement here and In Califer-
MIA. where the capital for exploring
has been furnished. Comparatively
little has been said about the opera
tons which led to the discovery, but
work has been going on for months on
a substantial scale, and the promoters
behind IT have been sanguine OF sue
cess.
The site OF the discovery is about
thirty miles from the western line OF
Utah. and not over FIVE or ten miles
from the northern boundary OF Arr
zona, near the Virgen river. The river
itself originates In the high plateau
which forms the southern terminus of
the Wasatch range on the Arizona
line. and the stream has cut through
this remarkable plateau a canyon that
is one of the scenic marvels of Ameri-
ca. The whole region is volcanic and
the craters along the river bed of the
Virgen, where it energies from the
mountains not far from st. George,
show that they were Ia eruption during
comparatively recent times. as geolog-
ical time is computed.
Early in the Mormon settlement of
Utah, Brigham Young sent a colony
to found an outpost on the Virgen riv-
er where st. George now stands. Vir-
gen City, up the river, was an offshoot
of this settlement. Tocquerville, be-
tween st. George and Virgen City, and
Washington, four miles from st.
George, completed the chain. Silver
Reef, one of the famous old mining
camps of the state, is not far away,
and the Grand Canyon of the Colorado
is about fifty or sixty miles to the
south.
Lack Of transportation facilities has
prevented the development of the won
derful resources of the Dixie region.
1t lies in a basin approached from the
north by abrupt grades that would
make railroad construction difficult and
operation most expensive; and the
amount Of water available for irriga-
ton limits the land that could be cul-
tivated without storage reservoirs on g
large scale The soil is marvelously
rich and the climate admirably adapt
ed for fruit raising. At one time a
cotton mill was operated in Washing
ton from cotton grown in the hot Mud
dy valley of Nevada.
If the oil region proves as valuable
as seems probable, the quickest and
cheapest way to secure the transporta-
ton facilities needed would be to util-
iZe the water power OF the Virgen riv-
er and run an electric railroad to a
connection with the San Pedro. The
route is naturally problematical, but il
would probably be via st. George and
Up through the great iron deposits OF
Iron county to Lund, or some other
conveniently located station. With
such capital as would be readily avail
able, and the influx OF population
which would naturally follow, the
Dixie region would be the garden spot
of all Utah, a perfect winter home and
quite as desirable for residence all the
year round as some of the most popu-
lous parts of California.

HERMANN STILL ON STAND
Defendant nt washinEtOn Tells OF
Course IN Matter of Land
Prosecutions.

WASHINGTON, April 5.-The third day
Of Binger Hermanns testimony In his trial
for the destruction Of certain letter books
while commissioner Of the general land Of
fee was begun with a line OF questions
intended to show that Mr. Hermann had
no Information or interest in the Hyde
Benson-D -Dimond- Schneider combination. Mr.
Hermann said he had never seen Benson
after the stormy interview with him in
San Francisco regarding which he testified
yesterday. He did not recollect ever hav-
ing met Mr. Hyde. AS to Messrs. Harlan
and Walk, clerks In the land office who
have testified that they were at the same
time under the employ OF Benson, Mr. Her
mann said he had no knowledge or sus-
picion Of such a condition. He always had
the utmost confidence in Harlan and Walk.
The letter signed Citizen OF the United
States" which described the operations OF
the Hyde-Benson combination, written in
1900 and placed in evidence by the prose-
cution, Mr.. Hermann said that he had
never seen or heard OF Il until II was
produced In the court The Endorsement
OF this letter in Mr.. Walks handwriting
honorable commissioner has seen this
twice." Mr.. Hermann said was a mistake,
as he had never seen the letter.
The letters written by Zabriskie in 1902
to Mr.. Hermann, in which the latter was
informed OF the Hyde Benson operations
was the subject Of extended testimony on
the part Of the witness He said he had
known Zabriskie in California, and the
facts disclosed in Zabriskies letter were
the first he had regarding the alleged
fraudulent operations of the Hyde-Benson
combination. He retained the ZabrislSie
letters for the purpose of preventing "the
traitor" in the office, whoever he might
be, from knowing of the steps being taken
to run down the frauds. Mr.. Hermann
took w. ]. MCGEE into his confidence, Nc
Gee being an old employe of the office,
and through him directed Special Agent
Holsinger to make an investigation OF the
Benson-Hyde operations.
Mr.. Hermann dsclaimed acquaintance
with the various individuals connected with
the alleged fraudulent land conspiracies in
the west. His repeated annual complaint
against the operation Of the lieu land law
as contained in his annual reports was
read to the Jury by Attorney worthing-
ton. The trial was adjourned until Mon
day.
