credit for securing from congress

land for the benefit of the public

Andrews assisted in securing the
removal of Gov. Hagerman because
he was honest; because he opposed
the plans of the gangsters, and be-
cause he really had the good of the
territory at heart. Do you approve of
the actions of Andrews in that mat
ter?
Why has Andrews not secured for
past four years. There has been a re-

Andrews first went to Congress? He

Why has he not secured it during the

Will "Bull'' explain why the terri
torial Republican campaign literature
gives him the credit of securing the
creation of the Sixth Judicial Dis
trict, when the appointment of Judge
Mann was made by the President on
June 3, 1904, the district having been
created in April? On April 25th. 1904,
the Record received a telegram from
Delegate Rodey announcing h final
passage of the bill, which was short
ly afterwards signed by the Presi-
dent.-At this time Andrews had not
turned loose his pennsylvania
Bar'l,. and was not dreamed of for
the Republican nomination. Now he
claims, through the Territorial Re-
publican committee, to have had this
bill passed. Not satisfied with robbing
Rodey of the position he then held,
"Bull' would take from him the hon
ors he rightfully deserved.

CONVICT
MUST 60 BACK
John Holmes Leaves State and
Is ReSaptured at Iowa
City.

John Holmes, an electrician. who left
Salt Lake after being paroled from the
state penitentiary, because ne was
ashamed to remain where it was known
that he was a convict, has been arrested
in Iowa City, Ia. Deputy Warden An
drew C IRE will leave today to bring
Holmes back. The electrician will now
have to serve the remainder of his term
of eight years behind the walls of the
prison.
Holmes is about IS years old. and came
here from Brigham City. On Oct. Is, 1906
he was sent TO the penitentiary for eight
years for burglary. One year later ne
was paroled He found work in the Salt
Lake water department. Four months
later, he asked permission of Warden
Pratt to take a position with the Bell
Telephone company. This. was granted:
About a month ago he disappeared. II
was understood that he wished to get to
some place in which his criminal record
was not known.
He was recognized in Iowa City a few
days ago. and was taken into CUSTODY Dy
the authorities there, after he had been
at large for a year.

In accordance with its custom of many
years. The Herald this spring again an
nounces the conditions and the rewards
that are the seasons offerings Tor the
best kept and cared for front yards and
the neatest and most tidy back yards.
1t is the aim of The Herald to stimu-
late interest in lawnmaking, in flower
gardening, in arboriculture, and also to
stimulate interest in keeping the back
yard as natty as the front yard In years
gone by The Herald, frank to confess its
concet, has been the means OF doing
much toward the beautifying of the city.
The idea of the front yard and back yard
Improvement may be, with a stretch OF
the license given to writers when they
have no other word to fit the case, said
to be ego-altruistic- That is, 1t gives
qualification to The Herald, and as well
qualification to those who participate in
the contests.
Whether one wins a prize or not, one is
sure to be the better off for the trying.
No man. woman, boy or girl ever put
spade rake to earth in the effort to
call forth the response that is ever wait
ing to be called who regretted the eff
fort.
There is no gainsaying the fact that
every one wants a beautiful front yard
and a clean back yard. There is no galE-
saying the fact, either, that there is joy
in the labor of rendering the front yard
beautiful and the back yard an attrac-
tive instead of a repulsive place. The
toll involved Is the toll one gives to the
home one loves: the recreation is rest Il
surcease from the daily grind
The Herald does not ATTEMPT to offer
rewards for premises kept by hire Its
sole object is to interest the good people
of Salt Lake the more deeply in the care
and maintenance by themselves of coy
homes surrounded by immediate pleasure
giving environments
With this object in view. The Herald
has placed certain restrictions. These re-
strictions are that the premises entered
in front
yard of a home of not more than six
rooms. A dwelling of rooms in number
six or fewer is eligible. A one-room house
may win the prize. Quien sabe? 1t isn't
the house-it's the yard that counts.
Last year The Herald made an innO-
walton in it's beautifying competition by
including back yards, as well as front
yards This year it makes another in
giving q special prize for the prettiest
flower plot in the front yard of any con-
testant. The flower bed is separate
institution and does not necessarily >ave
10 be in the yard that is entered as
competitor in the front yard contest.
The districts which will comprise the
city in the competition this year are
slightly different from those of last year
in that the west side instead of being ore
district, is made two districts. The fcl-
lowing is the order
Northeast district No. THAT portion OF

DIR. q. Il. Pfoutz returned last evening
from California, where he did valiant
service in behalf of the High school ca
diets, who will leave this city Saturday
and will have the post of honor about
the carriage of Admiral Robley D. Evans
when the parade reaches through the
streets of San Francisco. 1t is largely
due TO the efforts of DIR. Pfoutz that the
recognition given to Utah is so marked
in character.
DR.. PfOutz saw Governor Gillett. by
whom he was most cordially received,
and who referred him, armed with a let
ter of the most gratifying kind, TO Ad-
1utant General John A. Roster. General
Roster was also wide open with his well
come for Utah.
Thereupon Dr. Pfoutz went to Paso del
Robes. where Admiral Evans was. Il
never saw man more pleased in my
life said DR.. PfOutz than was Admiral
Evans when / suggested the plan we had
mind him of the fact that he was an
appolntee from Utah. Oh l remember;
| remember it WELL said the admiral. L
owe a debt to Utah which I can never
repay And all this he said before there
had been any suggestion about paying
any debt or referring to the days when
Captain Hooper started him off on the
way that has ended in his fame and
glory.
Admiral Evans was not in good health,
but l am safe in saying that he is MAX
ing rapid progress. Last Thursday, when
l saw him, he said that he had gained
ten pounds. AT this rate of Improvement
he will be able to rejoin the fleet when
it reaches Monterey and sail with it
through the Golden Gate into the harbor
of San Francisco bay.
when l saw Admiral Evans he was
in good spirits. 1t was only his physl-
cal affliction that worried the people.
Indeed. they worried the people much
more than they did the admiral. The ad-
miral is taking the right kind of out
door exercise and | venture to say that
when he boards his ship again he will
be pretty much the same old Bob. as
of old.
The plans for the San Francisco cele-
bration-I mean the details--are in the
embryo at this hour. 1 expect, however,
to receive some kilograms within the
next tWenty-fOu or fOrty-eight hours
that will contain information by which
accurately we may be guided"

emergency and put out blaze in double
quick time.

of Mrs Harrison Sperry, in Third East
street between Tenth and Eleventh South
streets 1t was caused by a detective
flue. Seeing the danger to her dwelling,
Mrs. Sperry placed a ladder against the
wall and was quickly upon the roof with

CHURCH WORK PROGRESS.
Reports Of Societies Show Gratifying
Condition of Affairs.

At the meeting last night in St Mark $
of church workers in the Episcopal faith
reports were received from the various
auxiliary organizations, the guilds and
other allied societies, showing that prog
ress had been made during the last year
beyond the average of years gone by.
The meeting was informal and the at
tendance was not as large as il would
have been had another night than Sat
urday been chosen.
At the close of the meeting light re-
freshments were served. The purpose OF
the gathering was TO bring about a closer
union and a better understanding among
the workers in the field of endeavor.

CITIZENS WANT
Street OPENED
Warm Protest Against Closing
OF Third and Fifth South
by Rio Grande.

A meeting of citizens was held in the
Twenty-fifth ward meeting house to take
steps to have Fifth and Third South
streets opened up across the tracks. On
behalf or those present, the following
statement was given out:
In January, 1901, the council granted
to the Rio Grande Western Railway COM
pany the privilege of closing these
streets without consulting the taxpayers
in this district The company has now
placed high board fence across the thor
oughfares, stopping all traffic. OF course.
we are only taxpayers, and have very lit
tie to say in such matters, but IL seems
too bad that any body of men could be
endowed with power to sign away the
rights of the people without giving them
a voice in the matter. Although the clos
ing of these streets has decreased the val
ue OF real estate in this district, the taxes
have increased. and we are expected to
let matters go and say nothing. This is
not the intention, however, of those living
IN this outraged district. The voice of
every one present at the meeting was
raised in the determination to fight, and
that to the bitter end, and at least see if
we have any rights, and if we have to
see that they are enforced. We are pre-
pared to take the matter up TO the SUI
preme court and see what can be done
there. We are living in a free country,
where every American citizen has voice
in the welfare of the community, and as
ClllZenS OF tne community we demand
that the thorOughfares be opened up or
a viaduct be built across so that we will
not nave to walk around four or five
blocks to get across the street without
danger of being arrested for trespassing
on ground that rightfully belongs to the
public. There will be another mass meet
ing held in the same hall on Friday May
i, and all interested are invited to attend
and hear the report of the committee
which has been appointed to see what can
be done TO assist in getting what we term
our rights"

Fund Is Growing.

More than $7OO was added yesterday to
the cadet fund, bringing the total of
the fund up to more than $500. leav-
ing approximately $500 still to be Sc
cured The business men. when called
on by members of the committee, are
generous in their subscriptions, but the
complaint of'the committee is that they
wait to be asked. 1t is impossible for
the committee TO make a personal call
on every person who is willing to give
to the fund and it makes an urgent plea
TO the people to send in their contribd
lions to the newspapers, the stores where
donations are received or to. the MEM
bers of the committee. Now that the
arrangements have been made for the re
ceptiOn Of the boys in San Francisco
and they have been given the post of
honor in the big parade, it IS an impera-
tive duty of the people of Salt Lake to
send the boys to witness the coming of
the fleet.
The largest contributor yesterday to the
cadet fund was Walkers Bros store,
which subscribed $3.50. The Salt Lake
Brewing company was a close second
with 500. Congressman Joseph Howell
wired the committee from Washington
authorizing it TO give to the fund $50 in
his name
