The business district of Salt Lake
City has reached an interesting stage
of development at the present time,
and speculation is being INDUCED In
regarding the direction OF It's future
expansion and as 10 whether State or
Main street will show the greater

rents on Main street, which in
some cases, have now reached exorb-
liant figures, lead to the inquiry
whether this is going to be d one-
street city. Between the rapidly In.

inulnberless incidentals which swell the
expense account Of the firms doing
business on Main, number of the
smaller firms are specializing as to

IMPORTANCE OF RIFLE PRAc-
ice IN SCHOOLS.

The National Board for the Promo
ton OF Rifle practice. an organization
maintained under the auspices OF the
war department which is doing nne
work. has lust issued a report on rife
practice and other institutions or
learning In the country. As this Is
the first report ever compiled along
these lines, it is not perfect, but II Is
stated that it is hoped to make IL an
annual affair. containing the reports
OF the school boy tournaments. match
as and other contests held in various
parts of the country.
The object Of the movement TO IN
itiate the youth of the country into
the arts of shooting is obvious. In
case Of real war. the United States
would have to depend largely upon
its citizen soldiery. and. as has been
pointed ont I'm all OF the riie practice
propaganda. after a man reaches
certain age he cannot be expected TO
take up rifle shooting with the en-
thusiasm OF youth. The war depar>-
ment is seeking to enroll one million
men who have qualified as marksmen
with the army rifle. 1t is important
that the departments plans should
he carried out, and there Is no surer or
better way Of making the enrolment
of a million qualified marksmen THAI
by introducing rifle practice in the
public schools. This already has
been done in many places. and the
is rapidly spreading.
Direct government aid cannot be ex-
tended TO schools unless they are MILL
tary or semi military in character, so
the work among the high schools ana
ether institutions without military
features has been taken MP by the Ma
tional Rifle Association Of America,
which is endeavoring to raise an en-
dowment fund OF 100000 for this pur-
pose.
Former President Roosevelt. some
thing Of rifle shot himself and an
over everything of the
kind. said in his last message to Con-
gress: 1T Is unfortunately true tina; !
the great body of our citizens
shoot less and less as time goes |
on To meet this we should |
encourage rifle practice among all
classes, as well as IN The military ser |
vices, by every means in our power |
Thus, and not otherwise, may we be
able TO assist in preserving the peace |
OF the world. - Unprepared. and |
therefore unfit. we must sit dumb ana
helpless to defend ourselves, protect !
others or preserve peace. The first
step-in the direction Of preparation
to avert war II possible, and to be TIT
for war If it should come-is to teach
our men to shoot"

proud that 1t can be counted among
these up-to-date cities. The recent
Fall Festival is to Richmond what the
Mardi Gras celebration is to New Or
leans. Printers Ink "a Journal for
Advertisers" has the following to say
on this subject:
From one viewpoint the Hudson
Fulton celebration in New York was
chandising viewpoint. No event which
brought 100000 people to town could
fail to be a good thing for retail bust
ness.
This is pretty dull old America,
anyway, when compared with the
springhtly village fetes, etc, which
are SO plentiful and popular abroad.
Sociologists have repeatedly asserted
that life here would be made far more
enjoyable for our foreign population
(if not for us) if more fetes and cele-
brations were arranged. 1t is also
probable that more money that is now
boarded by foreigners would be spent
here at such events. for foreigners
dearly love occasions" and are liberal
spenders on such an excuse.
Every city and town should have
plenty of occasions" Besides hav-
ing it's strong educational value if his
torically timed, and giving a most wei
come respite to the deadly tension OF
American business routine, it affords
the surrounding country, which suf
| fers from even greater desuetude.
chance to come in and get better
acquainted with local merchants. II
stimulates trolleys and railways; il
creates local sense OF unity and civic
pride, and loosens up the purse
strings in general.
| Sometimes trade is dull in a city
simply because the populace is SO in
tent upon it's work that it is ignoring
necessities and comforts which i
would be glad to buy il somebody go
up an excuse for holiday SO tina
attention from work would be divert
ed to play and the purchase of luxur
lies, ornaments and comforts"
Even greater than the direct moni
tary returns from such events is tn
benefit received, as Printers Ink sug
gests, from the creating of civic prid
and a local sense of unity. In the cas-
of the Fall Festival it causes all tn
citizens of Richmond to pull togethe

petty differences in the common goo

indianapolis, Oct 2l.-It looks like
the Republicans will sweep Indianap-
oils at the city election next month
and that Lew Shank, Republican can
didate for Mayor. will be elected by at
least $1,000. The betting boards re-
fleet the confidence of the Republi-
cans that they are going to win. Eets
are offered at even money that Shank
will be elected by 1900, and two to
one is offered that he will be elected,
The Democrats are not taking any Of
these bets, and it is likely that before
many more days the odds will be
heightened in the hore Of drawing out
some democratic money. Shank is
making a whirlwind campaign, speak
ing from three to seven times a day
and night, and the city organization is
the best that the Republicans have had
in years. Shank has announced that
if he is elected he will appoint Cap
tain Martin Hyland as chief Of police
and Chief Coots as chief Of the fire
department. Capt. Hyland is the most
popular member of the police force by
far and is regarded as the real
strength of the force. He has been a
member of the force for twenty-five
years and enjoys the esteem OF every
body. Chief Coots is the present chief
of the fire department and his reap
pointment will be approved by the bus
mess men who own large properties in
the down town district. These two an
nouncements have made Shank many
friends, and will get many votes fol-
