Woman suffrage has been most success
full as practical expedient in Utah. In
fact, it is no longer an expedient, but an
integral part Of our civil life. Politics has
been benefited by the refining influence of
women; and, instead of being unsexed or
debased, the women have been broadened
and bettered intellectually and socially
through the study and practice of civic
affairs entailed by the franchise.
Politically, the influence of woman
suffrage has been on the side of peace at

GOVERNOR MAY VETO
THE ENABLING BILL

Five out of the seven bills in the
hands of the Governor yesterday were
signed and are now laws The bill
in which the greatest general interest
is being taken has not yet been signed,
however That is the bill to enable
the Supervisors to legally vote the pay
of those in the employ of the City and
County since January 4.
Some people have big huneh that
the bill never is to be signed. On what
this bunch is based cannot be traced
The Governor has said nothing partic-
ularly hostile to the measure, either as
it left the House as Republican meas
ure, or as it left the Senate with the
stamp of approval of the Democrats
writ large in it's amendments.
When questioned over the phone last
night, all the Governor had to say re-
garding the matter is that he has not
as yet got through examining the bill
The time in which he has yet to sign
it does not expire for nine days.
The bills are:
Act 13-House Bill 27-reducing the
price of the Revised Laws.
Act 14-Senate Bill 33-providing
for the appointment of substitute Jus
tees of the Supreme Court.
Act 15-House Bill 5S-repealing the
laws regarding the issuance of eertifi

PRIZE UP FOR
PARADE POSTER
Promotion Committee Offers
$50 for Most Striking
1910 Design.

For the best design submitted for
the Floral Parade poster for the 1910
parade, prize of $50 cash has been
offered by the Promotion Committee.
This was the decision reached at the
meeting of the committee yesterday af-
ternoon, and call for the competition
viii be spread all over the United
States. Local artists will be given an
opportunity to participate as well as
the designers on the mainland.
Considerable criticism has been
heard among local people Of the 1909
card, and the chief feature of the crit
sicism seemed to be that the advertis.
ing of the parade was somewhat weak
on account of the alleged poster. 1t
wasftoo small, and did not convey the
idea of floral decorations, fun and
frivoiity, that the occasion demanded.
1t was also too "stiff'' a model to
be especially attractive. Secretary
Wood showed the poster design used
IN advertising the Manila Carnival,
and Honolulu's parade poster compared
very unfavorably with it.
The Promotion Committee talked at
length on the idea of Immediately ap.
pointing some one to handle the 1910
parade, or within a very short time, so
that there would be no hitch in any
way In the arrangements in the fu-
ture. The last two, parades have been
run off in splendid shape but it was
the consensus of opinion that the COM
mittees to handle the various features
of the day were appointed too late,
thus not being given the fullest amount
of time to arrange for their different
exhibits. Chairman Bowen will appoint
a committee of five, one of which will
be woman, to make a choice of the
best design for the floral poster, and,
in the meantime, the members Of the
Promotion Committee will consider the
plan of securing some one at an early
date to handle next years parade.
Only routine business was transacted.
Mr.. Wood read letter from Cana
dian branch of the United Commercial
Travellers of America, thanking the
committee for the donation of a fine
Hawaiian picture. A letter has also
been received from Frank McCandless
of Tacoma, Washington, introducing a
party of tourists to Honolulu from
that city.
The members of the Promotion Com
mittee are taking an active interest in
all matters pertaining to the Alaska

HERE'S 4 CHANCE FOR
ANOTHER BURBANK

Prof. w. r. Pope lectured on
Botany of Economic Plants,'' and
President Gilmore on Plant Improve
ment, at tic College Ct Hawaii Wed.
nesday evening.
At no time in the history of nations
has material progress been so rapid as
at the present time. The peoples of
the. world are turning their attention
from the conquest of nations about
them to the conquest of the soil and
the improvement of plants and animals
for the benefit of man. Of all the
nations, the United States has made
the most manifestly marked advance
in the last twenty-five years. The ap-
plication of scientific knowledge among
her common people to their work has
placed within their grasp wonderful
possibilities.
The long list of plants which were
classified for the study of specific and
characteristic tissues, as well as cell
contents, as was presented by Prof.
Pope, at the last session of the col
lege lectures, have infinite possibilities
of Improvement when one stops to con-
slider the methods and results as they
were taken up and discussed by Pres
ident Gilmore.
Plants vary not only in the charae-
teristics which classify them into dis
tinct species and kinds or varieties,
but vary much as individuals and are
modified so easily by change of en-
vironment. But shall we, as people,
with the present knowledge of the uses
of our more common plants and their
products, stop and be passive to the
possibilities when there is SO much
available and weil-substantiated infor-
nation on how to proceed to get prod
ucts of higher quality and in larger
quantities? I think not, for the at
tendance at these lectures gives good
evidence of the interest for these
things.
President Gilmore very briefly stated
in review the theories of Lamarek and
Darwin, and gave warning against
too much speculation when studying
these theories, although much data Is
recorded to substantiate the same.
It was stated that progress in plant
improvement is now more rapid be-
cause the plant is taken as the unit
instead of the seed, as was formerly
done by scientists.
To obtain a desired result IN some
chosen quality or character OF plant,
variation must be produced. A change
in environment or cross polienation
will bring about variation which VIII
be either favorable or unfavorabie.
But the final result of the induced
variation for the betterment of plants
will rest in the skill and good judg-
ment of the breeder to select individ.
uals which will perpetuate their good
qualities.
A number of instances were quoted
of how results with certain breeders
had been obtained Among these was
the work of Mr. Adams, who worked
for stringless bean, and the work OF
Prof. Hays in breeding Minnesota
wheats.
Next Friday evening "Sanitary
Dairying,'' with respect to the pro.

guarding the consumer, viii be discuss

A Big Land Deal

Representative G. A. Parsons Of
Idaho county, who has been spending
the past week in the city attending to
business matters, having returned
from an extended trip in the east,
left this afternoon for his home in
northern Idaho and will leave within
a few days for California, where he
will thoroughly investigate large
tract of land which he, and number
of Boise business men whom he has
interested, together with eastern
capitalists, will purchase if conditions
have been found as represented.
The land deal is one of the largest
which has ben formed in the north
west for some time.
1t was for the purpose Of looking
into this land proposition, as well as
to attend to certain mining interests,
that Representative Parsons paid such
an extended trip to the east recently.
He stated before he left that all of
the stock for the proposed deal has
been subscribed and that it only re-
mains for him to make a favorable
report on it before the deal is closed.
Representative Parsons will prob
ably never forget his recent visit to
Boise owing to the peculiar coincident
which developed through the acciden-
tai picking up of a long lost acquain-
taneeship with John M. Hains and

RAPID RIVER

The Forest Reserve people are doing
fine work on the trail up the Rapid
river from the mouth Of the West
Fork to the head Of the stream in
Idaho and Washington counties the
county line crossing at the Weyant
mill. Supervisor LAfeety of the Weis-
er Reserve, with crew Of men have
been working on the Washington
county end for some time. Ranger
johnson has also been working the
Idaho county end all winter and
spring. The work is now turned over
to j. Rhoads and he has put in q
camp and will finish the trail to the
county line. This trail was built by
the miners and prospectors and has
been kept up by them for years and
they are well pleased to get the good
help Of the Forest Reserve people to
keep it up as it is too much for the
prospectors to do alone.
i Mack Thompson, wife and child and
Charles Hall have finished their as
sessment work and moved out to the
Meadows where Mr.. Thompson runs
livery barn.
The prospectors are feeling good
over the prospect ola railroad through
this country and we hope it will go
without fail, as all we need in here is
transportation to open this country
and bring in capital as we have good
showing in here. Assays as high as
$95.09 in gold $6 in copper and AZ
OF. of silver have been found and most
any of this ore will pan free gold 40
and so colors being found in a small
amount of ore and the lodges are big
and can be traced on the surface for
miles. Native copper is found in here
and with a railroad at Pollock which
is six miles from here there is no reas-
on why this country should not go
ahead.
The snow is the heaviest in the
mountains this spring that it has been
for years and owing to the cold spring
it is not melting very fast but as soon
as we get few warm days it will go
with a rush and we will probably have
high water.
! The Seller Ford Co. at Black Lake
are pushing things as fast as possible
to start the mill this summer. They
have a good mine and mill from which
the company has taken considerable
values in gold and silver.
