 General Mcclellan of the Federal

 phoid fever; his recovery is doubtful. There seems to be no chance of a peaceable settlement of the difficulties
 between the United States and Eng
 land, as the United States seems de- | termined to row" while England is just as determined to heap insult upon injury. They were. net satisfied with
 their row over Mason and Slidell; the
 report is that the U.r S. authorities | boarded an Eng1isa vessel the other day and took of as prisoner a New | Orleans merchant. We hear that Eng land is making hasty preparations for

(From the Evening Smith,
In the indictment of one of the
supposed robbers of the Utah Nation
al bank by the grand jury yesterday
there is a direct rebuke for the ma
licious, falsifying and Matchmaking
Daily Kearns. Not long ago the
Kearns openly dared the grand jury
to indict anyone other than the first
presidency and the editor of this pa
per for the robbery Instead of in
dieting the noble and venerable lead
ers of Utah's religious and political
progress the grand jury indicted a
person, not a member of the church,
and one whom it is understood is
subscriber to the Kearns. He may
prove, however, that it was a mis-
take and that though he might have
taken the money he was not a read
err of the reviler of all that is good
in Utah, in which event he will, of
course, be acquitted of all that is
against him including the less seri-
Gus crime of looting the bank.
In this rebuke to the organ of
corruption and vice the grand jury
did a great service to Utah and the
Smith. 1t did its work we'll and the
members of it are receiving the
gratitude due them. We would like
to call the attention of the pub
lie prosecutors, however, to the fact

(From the Daily Smooth
In its report of yesterday the Fed
eral grand jury returned one indict-
ment for the robbery of the Utah Ma
tional bank 1t was expected that
this would occur. The case is in the
hands of the courts and of course
comment on it would be unwarranted
We cannot overlook, however, the
opportunity to suggest that the grand
jury should go deeper still into this
mystery and we feel sure that if il
does it will be found that those
whose pleasure it has been to so be-
smirch the name of our fair city by
unqualified falsehoods in the col
umns of the anti-Smoot press are the
real cause of the robbery. 1t was
they who advertised Salt Lake as a
blotch on humanity it was they who
hypnotised the people into electing
the grating americans" into office;
it was they who produced George
Sheets; it was they who made pub
lie the adequate police protection of
the city to such a degree that the
crooks of the universe were invited
to come to Salt Lake to prey on
Scotchmen and banks.

(From the Morning and Afternoon
Kearns)
The public is Disguised. And it
has right to be. For eleven weeks
the Federal grand jury has been
spending the government money
trying to find out who stole $l06,250
from the Utah National bank. Now
the jury returns one Indictment
against the person it says stole the
money. 1t may be that the man in
dicted took the money but there is
no reason to indict him merely be-
cause he stole this money.
Why didn't the grand jury indict
the First Presidency of the Mormon
church? Why didn't it indict the
quorum of twelve and first seven
presidents of seventies? Why didn't
the officers of the government swoop
down on the misery boarding of the
presiding bishopric and take from it
the tithing that it has ground out OF
the suffering and servile members OF
the dominant church. and place it into
the campaign fund of the "Ameri--
can" party, the party of Kearns and
Purity, Moran and Progress?
The only way that the members
of the grand jury will answer these
questions is that it had no evidence
against them. A likely answer. AID
what if they hadn't? Didn't they owe
it to their wives and little ones, to
the nation they swore to uphold, to
do their duty whether they had the
evidence or not?
The Kearns will make this proph-

(From the Daily Clark
Proceeding with caution, working
with diligence, the Federal grand
jury has brought one indictment for
the bank robbery 1t is possible that
the grand jury is right and it is pos
sible that it is wrong If the grand
jury is right it should be praised, if
wrong it should be censured By
this we do not mean to criticise the
grand jury or the man indicted, we
merely wish to make it absolutely
clear that the Clark is wholly neutral
in this as in every other matter of
public interest.
From the exceptional virile char
acter of our weighty temperance
editorials we have occasionally been
accused of expressing stand one way
or the other, for or against the liquor
traffic. We will take this occasion
to say that it is possible in some in
stances such a stand has been made
by this paper In so doing we are
always influenced by number of
extraneous circumstances we cannot
control, such as the humidity of the
atmosphere, the day of the week and
our personal disposition.
On all other matters except those
political-personal we will always be
neutral. We may be pardoned for
being Democrat since that has
ceased to be an indictable offense in
Utah. 1t can be used against man
only in testing his sanity. We feel

Give us a nine-fOot sheet so we

quits that have done pioneer duty
in this state" This is one of the rec
concentrations of the Commercial
Salesman Club, which met at Seattle
last week. Some Of these country
hotels never change the comforts

we want the sheets long enough to
double over the top SO we wont chew

An Oregon paper says when Mr..
Taft was nominated for the presi-
dency he announced to the world he
would remain at Brother Charley S
house during the campaign and he
would not drag the dignity of pres
idential nominee into the channels of
an undignified scramble for votes.
But he has had a change of heart and
like Mr.. Bryan, is now engaged in
preparing a complete run-around the
country for votes. AT first these cam
didates held up their hands in holy
horror and hooted at the idea of send
ing their messages whom they could
not reach otherwise. But Mr.. Taft
has followed suit and given the
method the dignity that will warrant
the public in advocating a campaign
through the medium of canned
speeches. /" When the Democratic
campaign committee decided to ask
the Democrats throughout the nation
for contributions to the campaign
fund, the Republican press sneeringly
referred to the fact that it was pass
ing the hat" In the congressional
campaign of 1906 Mr.. Sherman, the
Republican nominee for vice-presi-
dent, passed the hat, and Mr..
Roosevelt dropped his dollar into the
fund. BY November it is likely that
all of the old campaign methods will
have been worn thread bare and the
patent right to good many new
ones granted. Pearl.

THE DEMAND

Upon the eye within the last century
has been enormous, greater than evo-
luton has provided for; children are
put in school before they can much
more than speak plainly, and are
crowded with studies and might
work beyond their years, and the re-
suits of this excessive demand upon
the eyes of these young and growing
children can easily be foreseen. Be
cause OF this imposed task upon the
young, growing eyes there has en-
tered into, child-life diseases that
were unknown to children in former
generations. Some of the reflex trou-
bles brought on by eyestrain are sick
headaches, nervousness, stunted
growth, Sain 'Vitus dance, fainting
spells, gastric and digestive disturb
ances. These troubles in children
and in grown people can often be en-
tirely removed by properly fitted
glasses. For perfect eye-ease 60 to

The weather still remains fine here

grain in shock and the potatoes are
fully matured. We have Is acres of
as fine potatoes as have ever seen
grown and we are shipping few
which are bringing us $1.25 per cwt.
and / feel sure we will be able to
make them bring us soc to $500 at
digging time. We threshed q few
acres of our oats to get an estimate
of their yield and they made an av-
erage Of 80 bushels per acre. We will
thresh our wheat and some more oats
the last of this week.
Mr.. Anderson, who owns big
farm ten miles west of us, has 1000
acres of fall wheat which he has been
threshing on for two weeks and he
told me yesterday that the first 100
acres of measured land they threshed
averaged AZ 1-2 bushels and he fired
the threshing crew because they were
running SO much wheat into the straw
piles. On the present Winnipeg mar
kets his wheat will net him about sac
per bushel.
My wheat will not be quite as good
as his because it was new land and
it run to straw little too much.

LET'S REASON A LITTLE.

4 There's onethird of your brains al
lotted to supply your eyes with build
ing material and motor force. The
other two-thirds is divided among the
other organs of your body. After
your eyes your stomach is the next
largest user of your nerve-force. But
| the eyes are at liberty, when over
taxed or strained in any way, to draw
more force from the other parts of
the brain, This, of course, robs the
other organs of their normal amount
[of power to carry on their work. Now,
II this robbing process is carried on
very much, by overtaxed eye muscles,
faulty structure of the eye, too much
close work, lack Of sleep, atc., you
can readily understand that the eyes
are using up so much of the power
that belongs to other organs that they
will be unable to do their work prop
erly. The stomach will be unable to
digest what food you eat, you wip
lack appetite, your head will ache,
you become nervous and irritable and
there is no end to the amount Of
trouble your eyes will cause you if
left uncotrected Your eyes, you see,
can make or unmake you mentally
and physically Don't you see the
danger you are placing your health in |
If you have defective eyes and don't I
have them properly corrected? 1t
makes no difference, in age, whether
you are nine or ninety-nine If you
have eyes and use them you may
have a defect in them that is grad
ually sapping you of nerve-force and
your health.
See that your eyes are working nor
