since it has been twice referred to by
the gentleman who holds himself out
as the moral censor of the community
it may be well to throw some light on
it.
On the night of the Commercial
clubs annual dinner last December
the president of that organization, w.
j. Halloran. conceived the idea that it
would be a scintillating joke 10 give
somebody a ride in the patrol wagon.
Senator Kearns. the principal owner of
the Tribune. was told of the bright
stunt that was about TO be undertaken.
He thought il was great and entered
heartily into it.
Chief of Police Pitt was called on
the telephone by Mr. Halloran. with
Senator Kearns standing at his side
and encouraging him, and asked to
send an officer over to make the fic-
titious arrests. Pitt refused to send
a man in uniform because he thought
that would be carrying the joke too
far. He did. however, go to the club
himself. accompanied by Captain Bur-
5idge. The writer and one other,
former president of the Commercial
club. and one of the most prominent
and respected business men of Salt
Tins. They were called cut of the din
ing room and Chief Pitt read John Doe
warrants TO them. After some laugh
ing protests the victims were escorted
to the patrol wagon. One of them was
driven TO his home. The other, who
was the writer, all concerned having
agreed that the joke had gone far
enough. left the wagon at the corner
of Main and Second Ssuth streets,
stopped at The Herald office and then
went home
If the Tribune writer had wanted TO
be fair and decent-which was, of
course, farthest from his thoughts-he
could easily have ascertained the
truth MIR. Halioran will testify to his
part in the incident. Senator Kearns,
if he chooses TO do so upon his return
from Europe, can throw some light on
the subject. Chief Pitt. it is certain,
win cheerfully testify. and so will the
driver of the patrol wagon-alI from
Halloran to the wagon driver, members
of the American" party.
Burbidge's testimony is not needed,
and he may be left out of the case en-
tirely, for he really had very little more
to do with it than the horses that
drew the wagon. If called to the
stand, though, he would testify that
he never took the writer home in
patrol wagon or any. other way.

INFLAMMATORY
RHEUMATISM
Cured by Or. Williams Pink
Pills and the Proof Is
Right Here.

For years evidence that infiammatory
rheumatism is durable by DR.. Williams
Pink Pills has been published.
That hundreds Of people have tried
the treatment with good results is shown
by the increasing number of cures re.
ported.
Every sufferer from this most painful
disease who does not try this treatInent
is neglecting the most hopeful means Of
recovery as is shown by the statement
of Mr.. E. O. Odell, of Morrison. H.
81 suffered with inhammatory rheu-
matism for eighteen months before l
found a cure" he says. "I had always
been more or less troubled with my kid
neys and stomach. The rheumatic attack
came on q few years ago when was
living in New York state. ALI of my
muscles were infiamed and was swollen
from head to foot. couldn't walk any
distance at all without resting. The
pains were duh and aching aud once in
q while were sharp and shooting The
rheumatism began TO affect my heart,
causing fainting spells.
81 was under a doctors treatment for
about q year, but didn't derive any help
from it and In fact think I grew worse.
I saw an account of Dr. Williams Pink
Pills In newspaper and began to use
them at once. The relief was almost
immediate and / took the pills until
cured. / have never had the rheuma-
tism in any form since. My wife has
been very much benefited by using the
pills as tonic and recommends them as
highly as do."

fold by their being placed on general
sale with the doctors own directions for
use. They are entirely safe and contain
no opiates or other habit-forming drugs.
They build up the blood, strengthen the
nerves and have cured rheumatism in
almost every form, anamia, troubles of

TIME TO CALL A Halt.

1t seems TO be about time to call g
halt on those special auditors. They
have been at work more than a year
at cost to the city approximating
$4,000. and they have practically
nothing TO show for their work. One
of the experts" who was called before
the councils board of estimates the
other day could throw absolutely no
light on the city's finances. He could
not intelligently answer any of the
questions put to him.
In view of the condition Of the city's
books at the -se of the first year of
the reform" administration there is
no question but that a thorough audit
was desirable. It was understood,
when the ST. Louis firm was employed,
that an inspection of the books and a
comprehensive report would cost not
to exceed 10000. There are plenty of
auditors in Salt Lake City. men who
are far more expert than the St Louis
accountants. who would gladly have
undertaken the job for $1,000. 1t
would have been done by this time in
shipshape fashion.
But the home rslent was passed by
and the work given TO outsiders. They
have had men a. work on the books
almost continuously ever since. For
+, IN of these men they charge the city
$40 per day. The men themselves re-
ceive from $50 TO s125 per month. a
nice margin of profit for the heads of
the concern. II anything were being
accomplished there would stu be cause
the work However. nothing that is
worth while has been done, unless the
auditors desire to point with pride TO
their silly recommendation that Judg-
ments secured against the city in
damage suits be charged to the ac-
count OF the city's legal department.
That recommendation is important
only as showing the talent. or lack of
talent. OF the experts"
The facts here related are as well
known TO the council as to the average
citizen, and better known. Why IS not
a showdown demanded? The Herald
believes it would be cheaper for the
city 10 throw away all the special COM
mission has done and employ some To-
cal man OF merit 10 do the work all
over again. We know some frst-rate
accountants who are members of the
American" party. Let one of them
be employed by all means, at a reason
able. stated figure to go over the
books and make such recommends
lions as ne deems necessary to i'm
prove the city's present methods of
l-eeping accounts
To continue the dilatory. ineompe-
tent present commission is altogether
too much like throwing. good money
after bad money.

poor OLD CHINA.

All the prospects of war between
China and Japan have gone glimmer-
ing. Poor old China has apoiogized
very hunbly for daring to breathe the
same atmosphere as Japan. The steam
er Tatsu Maru, seized in the act of
surgents. has been released. The Chi
nese officials who seized her are to be
punished severely. China is to pay for
the arms and ammunition seized. and
is also to settle the amount of demur-
rage incurred during the retention of
the steamer.
By way of rubbing it in, a Chinese
warship must visit the place where the
Tatsu Maru is lying and must fire sa-
lutte as the Japanese flag is hoisted to
the top of the mast, Japan graciously
agrees TO exercise extra vigilance
against the smuggling of arms into
China by the japanese. This is very
kind, indeed, and will doubtless be
greatly appreciated by the Chinese.
What a crawl is there, fellow coun-
trymen! China, potentially the most
powerful nation on the face of the
globe. humbly turns the other cheek to
the belligerent Japs and thanks her
gods for the high privilege. If China
could arm and equip one-twentieth of
her males of fighting age she could, by
sheer force of numbers, turn Japan
into dependency. If China could turn
the wealth that lies within her own
soil to account for herself, she could
create a navy that would blot ont the
japanese forever as a sea power.
And yet China whines and whimpers
and crawls on her yellow belly when
Japan cracks the whip For so many
years the Chinese have regarded them
selves as inferior to any other nation
on earth that today they cannot pluck
up courage enough TO whip a company
of yoISel infantry or a feet of armored
launches. In the beginning of the re-
cent quarrel China showed some signs
of awakening. but the old lethargy
quickly returned. Still. the faint in
dications are hopeful sign. Perhaps
some day China will really awake.
In the meanwhile the Japanese, en-
oouraged by their latest victory, will
smuggle arms to ia Chinese insur-
gents at their serene pleasure. They
will be more contemptuous of China
than ever. Let US hope they will soon
become so overbearing that even China
must come same day. And when ii
comes most of US will hope that China
will be In a position to deal out to
Japan some needed medicine for the re-
duction of an extravagantly swollen
national head

A Strip of Territory Added TO
Alaska.

1t is reported in Ottawa that strip
of territory a furlong wide and some
fifty miles long, will be added 10
Alaska, owing to the work that has
just been completed positively locating
the 141st meridian. There was 4no dis
pute asio the location of the boundary
to the north of Monnt st. Elias, since
it was agreed anumber of years ago
that the line should follow the 141st
meridian from that mountain north
ward to the Attic ocean. The line,
however, had never been actually mark
ed. OF late years the extensive min
ing operations in the White River
country have led many prospectors to
stake out claims which may or may
not be inthe United States territory.
By means of the telegraph, the most
termination madeby the lunar method
was checked up placing the meridian
about 600 feet farther east than it
had hitherto been supposed to exist.
