WRECK ON BINGHAM LINE
One Killed and Five Injured by Run
away Ore Train-Emergeney
Brake Fails to Work.

One man was killed and five others
injured when a runaway ore train
jumped the track on the Denver & Rio
Grande near Revere, between Bing-
ham and Bingham Junction, early yes
terday morning. Patrick Cahill, a min
er Of Park City, who was stealing a
ride to Bingham, received injuries from
which he died a few hours later. En-
gineer Irvine and Fireman Van Dyke
were both badly lacerated about the
head and face, and sustained internal
injuries that may prove serious. The
other men injured were William Cham
bers of Greenwater, Cal, and Thomas
Graver of Park City. The injured were
brought to Salt Lake in the afternoon.
The train was backing down the
grade when it got beyond control and
dashed down the incline. The airbrakes
refused to work, and at the bottom of
the grade the train crashed into a
helper engine and then tOppled over the
embankment.
Pat Cahi1 of Park City, who was
stealing a ride in one of the cars, was
the most seriously injured. His skull
was fractured and two ribs broken, be-
sides decorations all over his body. The
members of the train crew escaped by
jumping before the train left the track
All were badly bruised, but were able
to assist the wrecking crew that was
hurried to the spot from Salt Lake, ex-
cept Van Dyke and Irvine.
The fact that the emergency brakes
refused to work caused the officials of
the road to think that someone had
tempered with them, and an investi-
cation was started at once. The acct
dent occurred several miles from a tel
egraph station, and it was rumored
that several members of the train crew
had been killed. This was denied last
night by officials of the road. The run
away train was composed of engine No,
lis and fifteen cars loaded with ore.
All the cars were wrecked by the ac-
cident, as well as the two engines.

POLITE AND rnRcrrrrrr.

Taniemon Hitachiyama, champion wrestler of Japan. is in Washington, and is naturally much impressed by what he sees there. He has also been impressed by what he has seen else where. Being interviewed he said this: I do not believe that our country will go to war with the United States. My countrymen do not express them selves as against the United States, but will admit that they prefer Eng land to your country, do not know enough about your country to say whether you would defeat us or not, but in view of the comparative size of both countries, you might whip us in time, but it would be long and bloody struggle. think that Japan can defeat any other country in the world, but I am not at all certain that they can beat you. did think so until I saw this country, but now think it is almost too big and too rich
 If this is Japanese politeness it has merit, and if it is Japanese percep- ton 1t also has, It may be both polite and perceptlve, As MT. Hitachiyama is a man of great consequence in his own country, and as he is judge of wrestling his admission that it might not pay his country to wrestle with this country will have weight with his countrymen. If many of them think, as he once did, that JaI n can throw the United States they can wisely imi- tate him and change their minds

 So fades another rainbow But nev- CT mind. There is still hope in spite of the fact that a scientist says that the explosive force that brought the material of diamonds rom the depths was so much greater in this country than in Africa that the carbonaceous matter was widely scattered, and that there is little chance of finding dia- monds in great numbers in any one spot. All of sudden perhaps it will be discovered that the explosive force so acted as to blow the diamonds into one spot. Let's keep on hopefully looking for the spot.

sRE STUDENTS ALEENsa

At meeting of the game wardens of the State Tuesday 1t was decided that college students are aliens within the meaning of the new law requiring hunters to take out a license and that in consequence they must pay the full alien fee if they propose to go af- ter the birds.
 This may be good law, but it Is not a generous construction of 1t. AS a matter of fact the students live longer in the State of Connecticut during their college course than they do else- where. They arc citizens in the ordin- ary meaning of the term. They live and have their being like the rest of us, They pay for what they get and they get a whole lot of things which add perceptibly to the prosperity of our merchants. If the students were to be shut out of the Connecticut mar ket the effect would be sorrowful for many enterprising merchants,
 It is not pleasant to think that the boys are to be taxed heavily for priv ilege given others for a song. It i'm presses one as being discriminating in an unfriendly manner. We hope tc hear that the game wardens, who are unquestionahly doing their duty as they see 1t, have reversed their decis- ion and returned the money where money has been paid. The student is something more substantial than 6 guest of the State, He is a maker ot trade all during the game season, no to mention the additional mon1s O his stay with us.

of government is that which governs little.
 Nor can we find a justification in fact for Secretary Taft's charge that a sensational press at home is respon- sible for the talk of impending war with Japan. That may have been a polite thing to say to a Japanese audience, but it is stretch of the imagination. First the fear of war and then the timid consideration of it's possibilities grew naturally out of the troubles at San Francisco between the natives and the Japanese resident there, which were followed by the i'm polite announcement that a battleship fleet was to be sent to the Pacific. It was chain of circumstances which caused the talk and that chain was woven at Washington by government officials, not by sensational press. The mere fact that Secretary Taft thought it necessary to dispel dis agreeable rumors, thereby provoking the enthusiasm of the land of Nippon, is of itself an unconscious admission that the incident may be charged up to official blundering. It was a case where government by means of talk brought its own penalties.

Bell of Minneapolis, but be- fore his death he voluntarily ac- knowledged the claim, though it had been outlawed and no court could force him to recognize it. His admin istrator has been instructed by Judge Smith to pay the claim from the Men denhall estate. Not only will the full amount, s399.2S, be paid, but interest has been compounded on this amount and Miss Bell will receive $977.4S in settlement of her thirty-year claim. She is the. last claimant.

trrom tha American Arnhi

(From the American Architect.)
 So New Workers have come to believe that the skyscraper has improved the city's reputation as "city beautiful" But the fact Is that to a person of .sensibility and artistic perception the sight of New York from harbor or river is simply depressing, and conduces to much melancholy. The world does not afford more inartistlc aspect than is afforded by this vaunting of a sheer erialism--American? Yes, intensely American, these jagged, featureless prisms stood on end, As for "sil- houette,' one just as artistic can be had any day by descending into an excava- tion and taking sight across a forest of driven piles before they are sawed off to glade. All this might be bettered if the law should restrict high build- ings to the pyramidal form Suggested by Mir. Carrere or to erection on sites in the middle of each block as we have urged. Tn either case the architect s efforts would have fair chance to
 count" and the silhouette of the city might be a real thing of beauty, in place of a mere formless tumble as now, a veritable jungle that even Kip. ling could not poetize.

WAIT, YORK AND BE rHAxHFUr.

There are young men who don't ap- preciate "the blessings of poverty" and there are also old men who don't. The young men who don't will do we'll to pay attention to the utterances of those who are rich enough not to have to work for or worry about the means of living, or those who have what is known as ''soft snap" These men, who have plenty of time to think, and so can fairly be accounted wise, have much to say about the blessings of poverty for the young. Not long ago the rich Brother Carne- gie told how fine 1t is to be poor and to have a mother who has to work hard, and now comes President Van Hise of the University of Wisconsin saying that 1t can certainly be pre- dicted that twenty-five years hence a large proportion of those students l who are now waiting on tables Will occupy higher positions of honor and trust than those who consider them- selves the arlstocracy of the universk ty. The necessity of earning liveli- hood while pursuing college course develops the energy and resourceful- ness necessary to success in life.
 We especially commend this utter. ance of President Van Hise to the at- tention of young men In this region Wait and work. Work and wait.

MUCH MORE coon LAND COMING.

If we can keep out the undesirable citizens we can afford to continue to be pretty generous to immigrants. The United States is going to have a great addition to it's productive land when the irrigation projects are carried out. It will have another great addition when the land that Is now too wet has been reclaimed. There is Ma tional Drainage Association, which is going to meet in Baltimore the last week in November, and is going to try to get congress to pass the bill which treats the drainage of the swamp and overflowed lands of the United States as just as much a governmental func- ton as that of irrigating arid lands. Scattered through thirty-seven States are approximately So,000,000 acres of swamp land, the reclamation of which means millions of dollars annually to the business interests of the country l over what is now enjoyed If these lands were drained and subdivided in-
 to forty-acre farms they would afford
 homes for 2O,OOO,OoO farmers, inde- pendent of the urban population
 which would inevitably follow. If these farmers had families of five they would expend annually $500 a year for clothing, boots and shoes, dry- goods and groceries; this would mean
 an expenditure of s12.0Oo, ,OOo, ,oOO The
 crop values of these now worthless Hands, at $25 an acre, would mean an
 addition of s2,O0O, 1000, 900 annually. It | is impossible to estimate what amount
 would be spent by settlers on these
 lands for farm equipment, such as houses, barns, agricultural imple- Iments and stock. When reclaimed the Hands will be a most valuable asset to the general government and States as
 taxable property,
 And so forth and so on. There can
 be no doubt of the importance and the value of the proposed work. Here's hoping that when they drain the lands they wont put the water into
 "securities."
