DEMOCRACY. TARIFF AND
PRINCIPLE.

For half a century, with but slight
\ interruption. the Republican party has
II )ecn In control of the executive and
egislatiye branches of government In
his nation. and at no time IN that
ong period of domination has the
predatory wealthy class been made
o weld submission TO the laws OF
equal rights. The resources ot the
country have been monopoli2ed and
Ill the machinery oil government has
)een applied IN defense OF those mono
oolies until the evil has become so
exaggerated as TO be designated by
he title of Trust"
A knowledge of this fact is one OF
he reasons why so many young men,
IN casting their first votes. declare
allegiance to the Democratic party
1 party which, since the Civil War,
nas offered but small political induce
nents in the North. BY way of office
holding, to those who might see tit
20 sacrifice political opportunities, and
even affluence for principle.
All the goodness and virtue of this
country, to be sure are not to be found
within the party of Jefferson and
Jackson, but the trend of the leaders
Of Democracy has been more stead
rastly for the right than that of their
opponents. and there is reason for
this which Is not to be found in the
Individual makeup OF the parties. The
Republican doctrine of protection has
won to the Republican party those
who were disposed to throw the
weight OF their influence on the side
which extends to them special privi-
leGes. and as a result most OF the
big Industrial interests are repre-
sented In the Republican leadership,
and nearly all the monopolistic forces
are securely entrenched within the
Republican party.
When the Dingley schedules were
made up, scandal grew out OF the
disclosure that many of the manufac-
turing interests of the country were
allowed through their representatives,
to write their own schedules. and now
there Is evidence that Il like condi.
tion prevails and that instead OF the
people. through representative form
OF government, Offering the trusts in
control OF our principal industries. a
tariff, the trusts have written the
Payne Bill and are about to tender it
through Congress To the American
consumers.
1t is this dominance of the especial
ly favored few. through the Republi-
can party, that has kept alive a pro-
test which finds its voice In the Demo.
cratic party.
Though Democracy Is handicapped
by an absence of large financial inter.

There are other sanitary regula-

Sprinkle chloride OF lime or kero-

Keep garbage receptacles tightly

Pour kerosene into the drains; keep
sewage system In good order; clean

Don't allow dirt to accumulate in

since he came into the political eye
of the nation he has stood ont before
tho people Ms tho man of conscience
in an effort to rid the country OF poll
teal tricksters and to bring the gov
ernment nearer the people.
He is one of the men OF the nation
that stands out boldly with n few 9TH
ers for the reformation OF political
parties and governments, and he has
done much both as lecturer and as a
public officer to awaken public inter
est In reform movements. Mr. Folk
was Mr.. Bryan's choice for the nomi-
nation for president on the Democratic
ticket in 1904. when Alton b. Parker
received the nomination. In his ad-
ministration in the state OF Missouri
as governor and also as district attor-
ney, he was fearless in his attacks up
on all forms Of political corruption,
having no friends to favor and no
fees that he feared.
Governor Folk is on his way to the
western section Of the country, and
is expected to be in Salt Lake tomor-
row evening. where he Will deliver an
address on "The Era OF Conscience" ."
He ought not to be permitted to leave
the state until he has given his fam

that Mayor Brewer, the Weber Club

CHANGES IN FIGHTING SHIPS.
United States Naval Designers Have
Recently Made . Number Of
improvements

The principal changes are the re-
moval Of bridges, the taking out OF
the Old military masts and the sub
stitution for them Of the new circular
latticework masts for carrying the
fire-control platforms. The after
bridge and its associate armored sig
nal tower have been removed and the
forward bridge has been greatly cut
down. The extensions of this bridge
On each side Of the coming tower are
now SO arranged that they can. be
quickly removed in time for battle.
the captain of the ship being hence
forth compelled to take his station
within the coming tower, where he
properly belongs. BY the removal of
the top hamper 1t will be possible for
the captain to command the horizon,
except through that arc of 1t which is
shut out by the smoke-stacks, says q
writer in the Scientific American.
This change will remove one more
OF the picturesque and popular cpl
sodes of the earlier days of sea fight
ing. The captain will no longer fight
his ship from the flying bridge and
in the open. The coming tower was
built for him, and a due regard for
the issues of the battle demands that
he remain within 1t. 1t was the
death OF Admiral Without, of the Care
witch, that threw the Russian line into
disorder in the great sortie from Port
Arthur. at the very time when the
chances of shaking off the Japanese
seemed favorable. The captain of one
OF the battleships in that fight told
us that the admiral was struck by
shell as he was leaning with folded
arms upon the railing of the bridge
watching the Japanese line. That
shot also wrecked the coming tower.
1t is true, but the latter was of de
sign which would not be considered in
our navy.
In addition to the removal of top
hamper, the whole OF the accumulated
layers OF old paint throughout the
ships is being removed; and in future,
with view to further reducing
weights. no ship will be allowed to
carry an accumulation of stores be-
yond the regular six months supply.
AS showing the absurdity of the state
ment that the structural changes men
toned above are being made in order
to bring the "deeply-laden ships" up
to lighter draft, it may be mentioned
that when the alterations are COM
pleted the draft will be only from
three-quarters of an inch to 1Ih
inches less than before.

Drinking Cups Of tho Ancients.


Silver cups made by such famous
workmen as Myron, Myos and Mentor.
were preferred to gold cups. They
were beautifully engraved and of
workmanship which has never been
equaled. When gold cups were en-
riched with precious stones, they
sometimes became peers of the en-.
graved silver vessels.
OF all sizes, shapes and designs
were these drinking cups, and their
value was measured more by their
form and design than the material of
which they were made. Some had two
handles, some only one and some none
at all. They were large and small,
low and tall, narrow and oblong. They
were purely the product of the vary
ing fancy of that prodigious age,
which seemed to scorn uniformity.
The early Greeks and Romans
drank hot water from cups, as we now
drink coffee and tea, these beverages
being unknown to them. Coffee orig
mated With the Assyrians, and tea
was first used by the Chinese at a
very early age-National Food Mag

VARIOUS USES OF FLOWERS.
Herbs and Plants Of Wild Variety

Did you ever think when gathering
wild flowers that nearly all plants
have been used as medicine. or for
some useful purpose? In olden times
most large houses had a room called

herbs were prepared, and poorer peo-
pie used to go there for their medi-
cine. as they go to drug store now.
Among the curious uses for common
plants were these:
Buttercup was used as n cure for
leprosy. This plant is poisonous, and

Patience and perseverance are
necessary on the part of the teacher.
Whipping ought never to be neces-
sary. The man who will whip q dog
because he does not instantly obey
doesn't deserve to own one. Invariably
the dog wants to learn, but he must
be taught, kindly and patiently, with
never firing repetition on the teach
er's part until the trick is accom-
plished. Whipping will take the heart
out OF the best bred dog that ever
lived.
Dogs are not all able to learn the
same things. Some dogs that are
not clever are lightly built and good
at jumping. A dog of this sort may
be taught to jump through hoop or
over bar held at considerable
height-a little higher each time of
