BLESSINGS OF THE PHONE

Notwithstanding an official assur-
ance regarding the health of Salt Lake,
an uncomfortable number of quaran-
tine flags are visible in various parts
OF the City. To the sufferers :u- orr
from communication with the world
the telephone is a blessing the value
of which Is not easily over estimated.
This Is what a lady said to Il friend
the other day:
"Oh, II YOU knew what 1t means to
me to hear your voice! | am In GUAR
antine with the children--scarlet le-
yer. you knoW-and nobody / know,
on care for has been allowed to come
to the house for weeks. The other
children had to be farmed out around
with the folks; Bert. of course, has
to be free to go to his work. and IL
It were not for these voices through
the telephone. I'd never hear o..e
outside of my own and me paoy 3.
we get SO lonesome-you know, II Is
hard for us to amuse each other all
day-and nearly all night. That Is
about what 1t means, when you nave
to stay awake TO give the medicine
on the dot. OH yes, dear. do call
me as often as you can. 1t is like
visit, you know, and you cannot guess
anime"
| Such are the snatches Of conversation
| one hears nowadays. when so many
| houses fly the yellow pennant that
seals up the home It separates from
human association till the dread visit
ant disease has taken its leave
wrapped either in a shroud, or as a
pale wrath. beaten out OF doors by
the white angel of health. Does any
one stop to think what the tele-
phone means in such cases7 Think
| of that isolation sealed by the health
| officers dictum. the Intervention of
blocks or miles of space, the barrier
of thick walls, and then through these,
the clear, warm voice or love and
friendship penetrating TO thrilled ears,
and carrying its message OF hope and
sympathy through otherwise impen-
| etrable barriers. Who says magic has
gone out or that miracle folded its
mantle irrevocally In the ages OF old ?
Take UP your receiver you who doubt,
send your whisper OF cheer tIngling
along the slim steel wire threading to
yours the houses of Isolated and anxi-
Gus friends. and hear that choking
voice OF gratitude coming to you falt-
erlngly through the little bell tube and
let the inspiration It conveys wake
your soul to the wonders, miracles and
signs lying about Us here in this pro-
sale world of ours!

STOP THE PRIZE FIGHTS.

we trust II has not escaped the notice
of the Mayor and Chief of Police OF
Salt Lake. that the tugs and toughs
of the sporting fraternity are coolly
announcing their intention to bring OIL

there will be no interference with the
'manly pastimc" of knocking down

smearing the ringside with gore. To
all of which we trust Mayor Bransford
will have an emphatic word TO say.
The Mayor of Ogden has already laid
down the law In that city and notified
the various "Battlers." puncners,
smashers, and the plug ugly class
generally that their exhibitions" In
future would not be permitted in the
Junction City. If we know anything
of the sentiment of decent people in
both Salt Lake and Ogden, and we
believe we do. II is that these prize
fights for they are nothing else, dis
guise them under what name you Wild
are brutalizing, demoralizing, and al
together bad in their effects. They
promote gambling, they draw tho
worst element from the surrounding
country. and as a rule they are engl-
neereG, concocted and pulled off in sa-
looms
The fact that the recent fight in
Ogden drew an audience that paid So
900 or $1,000, Tor the privilege of
seeing men batter each other TO a
standstill. ard that hundreds of peo-
pie were unable to obtain admission,
was disgraeeful spectacle. and one,
we hope, that win not be allowed IA
repetition in either city. or any other
within the confines of our state.
