READY TO EXPLAIN.
Sir Anthony Patrick Mcdonnell Com
ing to This Country.

rick Mcdonnell, under secretary to the
lord lieutenant of Ireland, has arranged
to leave here October is on his visit to the
United States, where he will spend about
one month Sir Anthony will travel
through the New England states after
which he will visit James Bryce, the Brit
ish ambassador at Washington.
The visit to the United States of the
under secretary is non-political There is
no secret about Sir Anthony's responsible
ity for the devolutiOn idea and the prin-
cipal features of the Irish Council bills,
and 1t was his confident belief that the
country would insist upon the Irish party
accepting this bill. Although his visit to
the United States is to be private, Sir
Anthony doubtless will explain the rea-
sons of his policy TO such politicians of
influence as he may chance to meet.

Beers paid for the room in advance, and

his hair unkempt, his beard ragged, and
small trace remained of the one robust

like sick as well as a broken man.

CASE GROWS IN INTEREST

Ogden, Oct. THE most sensational de-
velopments in the Beers murder case will
be brought out at the preliminary hear
ing tomorrow, when Mrs Wilbur F. Hull
and daughter will be placed on the stand
by the prosecution. The Hulls were To-
Gated at Wabuska, New, a small station
the California line, by Special Agent Cor
don of the Southern Pacific Railroad COM
pany and have been brought to Og-
den.
At the time of the tragedy the Hulls lived
in apartments over the rooms of the
Electric Supply & Fixture company,
wherein DIR. Beers received the injuries
that resulted in his death. The fact that
the Hulls spread the first alarm led TO
the belief that The sounds of what was
transpiring and what was said in the
This version was correct. County AttOT-
ner n. j. Harris says that the testimony
of the Hulls will be the most import
ant evidence yet produced and that it is
of a decidedly sensational nature.
Wilbur f. Hull, the father of one and
husband of the other of the two wit
nesses, whose testimony is considered of
such importance to the state, was at the
time of the affair working as a bill clerk
at the local Short Line yard office. I'm
mediately after the news of Beers death
became known the Hull family disap-
peared from ogden and went to Salt

HARRIMAN'S PANIC.

The country takes no interest in last
weeks stock gambling panic in New York,
where there was shrinking of one thou
sand million dollars within the week. Wall
Street brought it on itself, Wall Street
alone was concerned in it, it was Wall
Streets own affair. The decline in prices
NAV have cost Wall Street men millions,
but the loss is no greater to the country
than the transfer of SO many poker chips
from one stack to another.
Nevertheless, railroads must suffer from
every such storm, and we shall doubtless
hear that public war on railroads was re-
sponsible for the panic. Nothing Of the
sort is true, no matter how may railroad
presidents may say so. If public dislike
of Hartman and men of his sort had any
thing to do with the slump in stocks, it is
the Harrimans and not dislike of them that
is responsible Railroad managers have
brought the possibility of trouble on them
selves and their properties through reckless
speculation in the stock market, through
overcapitalizing their roads, through rob-
bling them right and left.
The trouble in Wall Street last week was
Harriman's panic, not the country's. He
created it, he must bear the consequences
not merely the material consequences, but
the consequences that will follow in public
feeling, in public treatment of him and his
sort, in the attitude of the public toward
the railroads.
Harriman's creatures unite in complain.
ing that the country is hostile to the rail-
roads. They will find sooner or later that
it is hostile only to such wreckers of rail-
roads as themselves.

A GEORGIA JUDGE ON PROHIBITION.
Edgefield Advertiser.

Recently Judge Speer, of the United
States Circuit Court of the Southern Dis
trict of Georgia, who was presented with
petition praying that the town council of
Valdosta, Ga, be restrained from enforc-
ing an ordinance that prohibited the sale
of intoxicating liquors, said:
81 think it will be a most excellent thing
for the property of everybody in Valdosta
and Lowndes County, and for their moral
status as well, if the City of Valdosta Cor
other city councis) would prohibit the sale
of intoxicating drinks; would stand stead
lastly to that prohibition, and enforce it
vigorously by due process of law. | be-
lieve it would do more to solve the urgent
and vital problems which are pressing on
our Southern people, do more to decrease
the volume of vagrancy and crime, give
the farming and manufacturing interests
of the country reliable and industrious
labor, save the unprotected women Of our
county from the horrors of wrongs which
shocks the whole nation, and more to re-
store us to simple life, and genuine old
| fashioned Americanism, safety, content
ment and peace, than all other causes put
! together
The foregoing is the most comprehensive
and pertinent statement concerning the
great prohibition cause that we have seen
in some time, and, coming from SO high
and excellent an authority as Judge SpeeI
of the United States Circuit Court, it should
carry great weight.

Temperance People In the Saddle.
jackson Miss News. |

Knoxville is the second city in the South
which, on a straight vote, has done away
with the saloons, though it is the largest
city that has spoken in so decisive way
on the saloons, Some time ago Charlotte,
N. c.. which is probably not much larger
than Jackson, banished the saloons and
now has prohibition. Those who have kept
up with the trend Of public sentiment in
the South are not surprised at the great
showing that has been made by prohibition
in this section. Prohibition has conquered
all the country districts in the South, and is
now going after the cities with good deal
of show of success, There are a great
many reasons for this show Of strength on
the part of prohibition. A great many
people are convinced that the open saloon
tends to engender racial feeling and to
lead to race conflicts, They believe that
the drinking Of whisky is bad for the ne
gro, and that when he is drunk he is more
than apt to become a criminal and be guilty
of attempting an assault. The people hold
that the illicit sale of whisky is not as bad
as the open saloon because there is not SO
much Of it sold, and that it is harder to
get. Probably next year there will be a
prohibition election in the city of Atlanta,
and those who are acquainted with the
situation in that city believe that it will
result in banishing the saloons. 1t does
not appear that there is any sign that this
aversion to the open saloon is going to
abate, but, on the contrary, it may get
worse, and probably will. The statement
was made the other day in one of the pa
pers of Tennessee that if there was fair
election and a free count in Memphis that
the saloons would have to go, and it would
not be surprising if whisky was not BAN
ished from Nashville, Chattanooga and
other cities in that State. The temperance
people are certainly in the saddle in Ten
nessee, and they are aggressive and not
disposed to rest on their laurels.

Make use of every opportunity for hap
piness, and let none slip if it is possible to
hold it. Life may be hard, even as the
desert is barren, but in the desert there are
GASES, and it is duty to direct our steps
toward them and to spend few hours in
their grateful shade. Even in the midst of
our anxiety or our incessant toll there are
moments of respite, and if we avail our
selves of them the heart is ightened and
the body is strengthened. This world is
not only beautiful, but it will make our
souls beautiful if we learn to appreciate it.
Gloom and dependency are sometimes
inevitable, but when the sun breaks through
the clouds, even for an hour, we should
grasp that hour and consecrate it with a
smile. There is no life which is always
dark, and if We allow ourselves to be SO
impressed by the hardships we undergo
that we cannot enjoy a restful afternoon

looking for the light is oftentimes rewarded
by our finding it in unexpected places,
while the habit of looking for misery in
