cMoKED OUT.

The HeraId's morning American"
contemporary yesterday more frankly
discussed it's proposed reapportionment
of the voting districts of Salt Lake
City. For the first time. after having
been smoked out by The Herald, ii con-
fesses that the movement is designed
primarily and all the time 10 help the
American" party. And if in doing
that approximate justice" it says. 'the
American party is relieved, that is
merely a proof that it is now suffering
injustice"
By all means let the suffering
American" party be relieved. Let the
city be gerrymandered at the sweet
will of the American" politicians.
Surely nobody has any rights that the
American" leaders are bound to re-
spect. The Herald is indeed sorry that
the dominant party is suffering so ter
ribly over the rank injustice done it
by the people in giving it only nine out
of the fifteen members Of the council,
and a full set Of city officers That
party, indeed, has a few loud groans
coming to it.
Incidentally. it is interesting to note
that our American" contemporary
was not, in its plea for a gerrymander,
actuated by those motives Of pure, IN
selfish. disinterested patriotism that so
distinguished it during the late cam
Paign. 1t is not by any means certain
that the city has the power, under the
law, to redistrict the city. The Re-
vised Statutes of 1898 give the county
commissioners power to establish.
abolish and change election districts"
City councils have power to supervise
elections held within the voting dis
tricts established by the commission
ers.
II would appear from this statute
that our contemporary has gone to
lot Of needless trouble in the matter Of
its gerrymander. Think of the more
or less valuable space it has wasted in
in a discussion that, as the lawyers
would say. is utterly irrelevant and I'm
material The city council apparently
has no more authority to change the
election districts than it has to add to
or take from the states delegation in
congress. or to increase the number of
delegates to a national convention Of
either of the great parties.
Now we suggest, this matter having
been disposed of, that our contempt
rary turn its attention TO securing more
equal representation of the various
states in the United States senate. 1t
must concede the unfairness OF allow |
ing Utah to have as many senator's
and especially Utah's kind OF senators |
AS the state of New York or PennsyI- !
Y ania or Ohio. It must coneede the in !
justice Of giving Rhode Island and Del |
aware equal senatorial representation |
with Illinois. And we may add, es-
pecially as long as Rhode Island and |
Delaware are represented by the kind |
of senators they now have.

LOW TO HELP.

A suggestion made by an eastern
contemporary, the Philadelphia Public
Ledger. is worth while. 1t says:
Pay small debts. Give the grocer.
the tailor. the dressmaker and the
servant girl the money which belongs
to them. The Public Ledger early Of
fered this advice as one of the best
prescriptions for getting money into
circulation. In many cities the idea
is being urged with earnestness. Not
only now. but at all times the obliga-
ton of promptly paying small bills
should be treated as one of the most
urgent. Some people might with ben
eft TO business pay instantly their
church subscriptions. The preacher is
sure to put his salary into circulation.
Instead of curtailing, men might in
crease their church subscriptions and
stiffen their cOnsciences about quick
payment. Business would improve not
a little"
Sound sense, that. There is no good
reason why saIaried men, especially,
should not pay up their small debts.
That is, those who still have employ
ment and, after all. the percentage dis
charged is comparatively small. The
butcher, the baker, the grocer, the
dressmakeT, the servant girl-if you
are fortunate enough to have one-are
all entitled to their money. And you,
If you are working on a salary, are
just as able to pay them as you were
six months ago.
As a matter of fact you are better
able. for the prices OF some articles in
daily use have declined. You are get
ting your money regularly, just as you
were in the days before this tempo
Tary financial stringency came. At
least if you are not getting actual cash
you are getting cashiers Checks, and
the tradespeople you owe will be glad
to accept them at their face value
Try them once, and see if this isn't
true.
Don't imagine, If you are getting real
that a temporary furry gives
you the right to hide it away at home
or in a safety deposit box, and then re-
quire your creditors to give you an
length Of time in which
to settle with them. You have no more
right TO the money today than you had
a year ago. It is absurd for you to
think you have. And. as the Public
Ledger says, a general and prompt set
tlemen of the small accounts would re-
suit in considerable business improve
ment
You'll feel better yourself about it
Suppose you do put away $40 or SIS
week that you owe somebody. In the
end you'll have 10 take it out of the
safety deposit box. or out of the bureau
drawer OF wherever else you have put
it away, and hand it over to the cred
TORS who should have it right now.
You'll find, too, that it will make your
credit better, that when the time comes
hat you feel the financial pinch it will |
be easier for you to secure aceommo-
1ations from those with whom you

THE COTTON MARKET. :

NEW YORK, Aug. 6.-The cotton
market opened firm at a decline OF
points on August and 3 points on sep
TENDER, but sos points higher on later
months. The near positions were de-
pressed by August notices amounting
1t was estimated, to about 10000 bales,
but after selling at 11.45 on the call
that month advanced to lilo on a very
few transactions, leading to the I'M
preston that notices were being stop
ped by spot people. and during the mid
die of the morning the active months
generally showed net gains of from
IA to Is points. Business was fairly
active with new crop months influenced
by continued dry weather in the west
ern belt, reports of high temperatures
in that section, and expectations of a
bullish weekly report at midday.
The early advance was checked by the
for showers in the Southwest,
and during the later morning trading was
less active, with fluctuations rather irregu-
lar after a reaction of several points from
the best. Prices at midday were about
to 9 points net higher, late months being
relatively firm.

BELMoNT'S PERSONALITY.
Something About a Little Man who Has
Made Financial and Sporting History.

In speech, dress and August
Belmont appears off-hand the dapper
banker, brusque, affiuent-looking, keen.
selfish, practical. He is understood in
statue, with a well-knit but unprepos-
sessing figure, a well-shaped head, set
closely upon shoulders that, once ath-
letic, have grown to stoop beneath big
burdens. His face, though full, is
heavily lined, showing, too, and very
clearly. the struggles of his later years.
The contrast between two of his photo
graphs, the one taken in his cup
defender days, the other within the
past yea is marked.
There is a big difference between the
August Belmont of today and the young
Mr.. Belmont of a decade ago, remarks
William Allen Johnston in a study of
the famous millionaire in the Broadway
Magazine. The change came in 1900,
when Belmont, the banker, stepped into
the traction arena, financed the Subway
contracts and bore away under the
very noses of the street railway giants
the richest traction prizes in all mu-
nicipal history.
August Belmont graduated from Har-
ward In 1874 and, true to the Belmont
traditions of practically and industry
entered without delay his fathers
banking house. taking a more or less
minor place and learning every detail
of the business from the ground up
His ability and application carried hin
slowly but inevitably to the top, and
at his fathers death in 1890 he inherited
the banking business and the bulk Of
the Belmont fortune, estimated al
about twenty-five millions. His two
brothers, o. H. p. and Perry Belmont
ceived the balance.

MILL OPERATORS CONVENE.
North Carolina Association Considering
Temporary Closing of Mills

NORFOLK, Va, Aug. 6.-The North
Carolina Pine Association, composed of
the leading lumber mill operators of vir-
ginia. Eastern Maryland, North and South
Carolina. is in session at the jamestown
Exposition today considering among other
things the question of closing the mills
Of the association for a period of thirty
days or longer for the betterment of prices
and conditions generally from the view
point of the lumber manufacturers of the
South, who are complaining of an overpro-
duction of lumber with depressed prices.
Even In the event of a majority vote for
the closing of the mills of the association,
as desired by the Southern members, 1t
was declared by certain leading members
today that the mills will not be bound,
and the operators in VIRGINIA and Mary
Wand VIII, 1t was stated, In all probability
not close, as the market is good in these
territories.

RAILROADS AND SHIPPERS
COMING TO AGREEMENT.
Railroads Favor Freight Zones-Agree
to Deliver Goods Within
a Given Time.

NEW YORK, Aug. 6.-The important
conferences now being held here between
representatives of the Trunk Line Assocla-
ton of Railroads and the Transatlantic
steamship conference, in which shippers
are taking a limited part for the discus
sion of the general question of dispatch OF
freight, is said to have already brought
about a better understanding and may
result In an agreement. 1t is learned that
for the first time in their history the rail-
roads have made a direct proposition to
establish freight zones with a tentative
agreement TO deliver freight at New York
from each of these zones within a given
time-say ten days from Buffalo, twenty
from Chicago and thirty from Minneapolis.
A member of the produce exchange COM
mittee said that unless an agreement on
the question OF reasonable dispatch
was reached during the conferences the
whole question would be taken before the
Interstate Commerce Commission.

INTFORRAILROA
NOT TO REPORT ALL ACCI.
DENTS.
Two Commissioners Against Mr.. Whit
ing, and Railroad Attorneys
objection Is Sustained.
Especial to the Evening start

TRENTON, Aug. Sat the meeting
of the State Railroad Commission to-
day, representatives of the various
railroads were present and agreed upon
an official form for reporting accidents.
The report will show the name of the
company, date and hour of accident,
location, number and kind of train, en-
gineer's and conductors names, nature
of accident, number killed or injured,
including tresspassers, name of persons
killed or injured and amount of prop
erty damage.
The only important change made IN
the form as suggested by railroads is
that they must report IN
which tresspassers are killed or in
jured.
Commissioner Whiting said he
thought all accidents should be reported
to the commission by telegraph and fol-
lowed by a detailed report by mai
within "a hours after the accident. n
railroad representatives objected TO
this, and said it would impose a USE
less burden and expense upon them,
and said that they should not be COM
PEELED to report minor accidents by
wire. Mr.. Whiting insisted that 1t was
dangerous to draw a distinction; ne
felt it would eventually lead to con-
fusion. Commissioners Congdon n
said they thought it would only
be necessary to telegraph accidents
which resulted in death, serious injury
or great loss of life OF loss of freight.
The question of reporting accidents
occurring on construction work was
I'm and Commissioner Whiting
said he was Of the opinion that they
should be reported. Commissioner WI
and Congdon did not express their
opinion on this point, both showlng a
disposition to look further into the mat
ter and pass upon this and other mat
ters when they meet next Tuesday TO
officially adopt the new form OF re-
porting accidents.
