Many people will be surprised at
for positions on the police force be re-

examinations. They will be surprised
because they have taken it for granted

The Herald rather likes Chief Pitts
message throughout. 1t shows that
during the few months he has occu-
pied the Office he has given it some
careful study, some deep thought. We
said when he was first appointed that
he should be given an opportunity to
Demonstrate either his fitness or his
unfitness for the place And we are
now of the opinion that, if he is not
harassed by political manipulators. by
men who would make a party machine
out of the police department he will
give a good account of himself

COME GOOD SUGGESTIONS.

In his annual report to Mayor
Bransford and the city council Chief
of Police Pitt made some recOmmen-
dations that are entirely worthy of the
serious consideration of the governing
officials One of the most important
is a limitation of the number of sa-
looms now in existence and a require
ment that they be closed at midnight.
We would go further in the matter of
the number of saloons. An ordinance
making II impossible for a saloonkeep-
err who forfeits the license to secure
another under any preteXt should be
enacted, and the number of drinking
places should be cut down until not
more than fifty are left.
If anybody fears the effect on the
revenues of the city let the license be
raised TO $1,000 a year for the purpose
of making up the deficit. The result
of this step would be to drive out Of
existence the low saloons where Grim
inals and disorderly people have a
habit Of gathering, and il would re-
strict the ownership and operation of
the remainder TO trustworthy and law
abiding men. There is such a thing
as a decent saloon, as there IS such a
thing as a dive. The decent saloon
keeper never makes any trouble for
the police. He keeps his place orderly
and he obeys all the laws without
question.
oF oa of
midnight would not be disastrous 10
saloons of the better class The bulk
of them do not now make enough
money after midnight to pay for lights
and the extra wages TO bartenders.
They keep open largely through force
of habit and because other places are
open And with the saloons closed at
midnight there would be no place for
criminals to gather and plan crimes
for commission during the early hours
of the morning.
A splendid recommendation is that
the owners of property rented for
gambling purposes be arrested. The
Herald believes. with the chief, that
there is no public gambling in Salt
Lake City at the present time. There
are some poker games, and we appre-
ciate the difficulty of breaking them
up. But they should be broken up
whenever possible, and the individuals
who rent rooms or other property to
the gamblers should be punished. And
if we are not mistaken there is in ex-
istence at this time a statute under
which the chief may proceed.
With regard to the detention home
the chiefs position is eminently sound.
Such a home certainly should be es-
tablished and maintained in Salt Lake
City in connection with the juvenile
court But on that point we do not
apprehend that any difference of opin-
ion can possibly exist. All good citi-
zens are in favor of a detention home.

THE DRY FARM ERs.

The opening session Of the Dry
Farming congress is to be held today.
Last night the delegates who have ar
rived in the city We're entertained at
a banquet. Today they will settle
down TO the work that has brought
them together. The indications last
night were that, when the meeting Is
called TO order this morning in the
First regiments armory the attend
ance viii be large and thoroughly rep
resentative. 1t. is good that this is
true, for the jewellers in the arid and
rather heavily on the dry farming ex-
pert. They are looking to him to sup
ply a considerable measure of their flu
ture prosperity and happiness.
AS The Herald has before pointed
out, it will not be many years before
practically all the land that is suscept-
ible Of irrigation will be tributary to
reservoirs, canals and laterals There
will remain hundreds of thousands of
acres of arid land. The western coun-
try is growing rapidly in population
The demand for land and for the pro-
ducts of the soil grows greater every
year. The people must be fed, and it
is to the soil that they must look for
sustenance, for practically everything
we eat, everything We wear, has at
least its beginning in the soil.
Especially is this true of dwellers in
the intermOuntain country, where
there are neither great lakes nor
mighty rivers to provide a portion of
the daily food. The business of. the
dry farmer is to make the arid land
productive. He has reduced the bus
mess to a science. He can tell now
the nature of crops best adapted to
dry farming; he knows the classes of
fruits and cereals that will reproduce
themselves most heavily. and he is
learning more all the time.
The purpose Of the dry farming con-
8ress is TO draw together men who are
engaged in that line of work, to the
end that they may exchange ideas for
their mutual benefit. The programs
include addresses from some of the
best known experts in all the land.
and every delegate present will go
home feeling that the expense in
volved in coming to Salt Lake has
been money well laid out
The Herald extends the right hand
of fellowship to the dry farmers. We
hope they viii find time to mix a lit
tie pleasure with their serious busi-
ness, that they will find their enter
tainment so enjoyable, their programs
so profitable that they will want to
come to Salt Lake again soon and
often thereafter. Meanwhile the city
is theirs. and if they fail to find ex-
actly what they are looking for we are
authorized to announce that to Presi-
dent Fisher Harris of their own or
ganization has been delegated the
pleasant duty Of finding it for them.

AS YOU. GO THROUGH LIFE.

AS YOU GO THROUGH LIFE.
Don't look for the flaws as you go
through lite.
And even when you find them
1t is wise and kind to be somewhat
blind.
And look for the virtues behind them;
For the cloudest night has a hint Of
light
Somewhere in it's shadows hiding;
It's better by far TO hunt a star
Than the spots on the sun abiding.
The current OF lie runs ever away
To the bosom OF Gods great ocean.
Don't set your force 'gainst the rivers
course.
And think to alter Its motion.
Don't waste your curse on the uni.
Remember it lived before you;
Don't butt NJ the storm with your puny
form.
Tut bend and let it go DER you.
The world will never adjust itself
To suit your whims to the letter.
Some things must go wrong your whole
life long
And the sooner you know = the better;
II Is folly 10 fight with the infinite,
And GO under at last IN the wrestle.
The wiser man shapes into Gods plan.
As water shapes into vessel
