along the Green river county in 1879
and published book of his travels in
1919 These references, together with
sermons of Brigham Young, and book
on Indian experiences by Daniel w
Jones show that for years preceding
IN" pioneer era there was an active
slave trade carried on in Utah. In
which business Indian Walker took
slaves from the Pah-lrte and Digger
Indians and sold them to MexiCans

the breaking up of this trade and its
prohibition by GOV. Brigham Young
as one Of the early acts of his career
in Utah. Upon this trade and the bit
teiness in Walkers heart following its
prohibition, Mr.. Lewis throws much
light. but that Is u matter worthy Of
special treatment by itself and can
only be mentioned here.
Asked what was the greatest hard

Lewis quickly came to a decision. 1T

TAFT IN NASHVILLE.

The Hon. William Howard Taft,
Secretary of War, and one of the lead
ing candidates for the presidential
nomination on the republican ticket,
is due to be in Nashville May 21, to
deliver an address to the Tennessee
Bar Association. While in the city
Mr.. Taft will be the guest of the Bar
Association and will speak at the
Vendome Theatre on the night of the
21st.
Mr.. Taft, it is said, has been invited.
to speak to the students of Fisk Uni
versity in the Fisk Memorial Chapel
and has accepted. Though a major
ity of the Negroes of the city have no
great admiration for the Secretary of
War on account of his speeches on
the Southern Acknowledgement laws
and his connection with the Browns
vile affair, it is thought that many
will be present at Fisk to hear him
in the event he speaks.

New York Viudicates La Toilette

While the physical valuation of
railroads as proposed by Senator
La Toilette is being debated back
and forth, the west for it and east
against it, it is at the very core of
conservatism that the principle
goes into actual effect. Governor
Hughes utilities commission for
New York has ordered a physical
valuation made on the street car
system of the city, and the New
York World says of the order:
The physical valuation of the
surface roads which the Public
Service Commission has ordered
its experts to make Is a timely
measure for the public protection.
Sooner or later the friendly re-
ceivers" must relinquish control
of the property and a thorough re-
organization of the bankrupt COM
panies must be made. When the
time comes the Public Service
Commission, with the information
then at its disposal, will be fully
prepared to assert its authority in
matters of capitalization and op-
peration.
Physical valuation is not too
radical for New York ity's traction
interests, being accepted Gas a
timely measure for the public pro-
lection" 1t is unfortunate that
Gov. Hughes was not elected ten
years earlier and the Public Utili-
ties Commissions order issued be.
fore instead of after the bankrupt.
cy Of the local traction properties
by over capitalization and stock
market manipulation, but it is now
recognized anyhow that the way
to forestall a repetition of the
jugglery of the finances of New
York's street railway is to find the
actual value of the properties be-
fore the reorganization occurs.
New York's Public Utilities Com
mission therefore comes forward
with a timely demonstration of
the feasibility of Senator La Fol
lette's idea. AS time goes on 9TH
er practical ideas of Wisconsin's
hard headed senator will be taken
up which are now hastily con-
demned as radical. The merit of
his proposals is that they bear in
spection.-Topeka Capital.
