A meeting OF the Ogden Improve
ment league was held last evening at
the Weber club rooms. Matters oi
considerable importance were consul
cred and acted upon with dispatch.
The league members adysnced the
idea that there should be united ef-
fort on the part of the people toward
the advancement and substantial i'm
provement of the city. 1t was the
opinion of those present that the Har-
rlman people should be encouraged as
much as possible In their building en-
terprises here and that every possible
effort should be put forth to aid them
with a moral force of sentiment and
appreciation In the efforts they exer-
else TO build greater Ogden"
Regarding the matter OF improving
the parks of the city and in making
other improvements tending toward
the beautifying OF the city, Secretary
]. S. Lewis, in response to request
from the league for suggestions along
those lines. submitted a report which
was received with applause and unan-
imously adopted, with a vote OF thanks
to Mr. Lewis. The report was as fol-
lows:
The value of artistic improvement
and how to make Ogden q more beau

needs serious thought and consijera-
ton to accomplish results.

time planted upon our streets was

march of progress the box elder and
poplar were introduced and almost uni
versally adopted as meeting all require

varieties were introduced and used

THE EMPIRE OF INDIA
of British Dominion.
BY FREDERIC J. HAsKIN.

Calcutta, India-Three great events
stand out clearly in the long ana com
pick record Of the British dominion IN
india. The first was the granting OF d
royal charter to THE Governor and Com
pany Of Merchants OF London Trading
Into the East Indies" That was done by
queen Elizabeth on the last day OF the
year 1900, seven years before the flrst
permanent English settlement was mace
In North America. The second was the
battle of Plassey- fought on June -
1915, by Robert Give The third was the
proclamation by Queen Victoria on NOV.
I 1893, assuming the control OF affairs IN
India for the crown, and ending the rule
OF the cOmpany-which was the direct re
suit OF the disastrous mutiny in the natlVe
army which broke out the year before

granted until the Battle Of Plassey, the

or the French cause, and gave Give the
opportunity to crush the power OF the
Nawab who ruled over Calcutta. and who
was responsible for driving the English

morning there were but twenty-three OF

DEMOCRATIC DOCTRINES.

William j. Bryan does not fail &C
point out that the new administration
has taken up with Democratic doc
trines. and the New York World ex-
ults while calling attention 10 the same
fact 1t is a truly remarkable state OF
affairs. The World sees hope for the
Democracy. its principles being eternal
and Mr. Bryan urges the formation Of
non-partisan clubs TO put the income
tax on constitutional basis. We may
be happy yet, YOU bet.
In a leader upon the tendency Of the
Republicans to adopt Democratic ideas
the World says:
Democrats may find instruction as
well as comfort in the fact that most of
the recent policies Of Republicans have
been borrowed from them. In the states
as in the nation overwhelming Demo-
cratic defeat at the polls has been pO-
liticallv fatal only to Individuals DEM
ocr9ts have been excluded from most
official stations. but with Republican as
sistance they have written their prin-
ciples into the laws of the land. Dem
ocrats go down to defeat. Democracy
adds triumph to triumph.
The effective regulation of corpora
tons, the warfare upon monopoly. the
direct primary, the popular election of
United States senators, the tax on the
earnings of corporations. the tax on in
heTitances, the income tax and the reg
ulation and publication of campaign
contributions and expenditures have
been Democratic in their origin. al
though mainly Republican in execution.
Few Republican platforms have had
anything definite to say of these things.
and yet to Republicans principally is
due the fact that the seemingly reject
cd principles of a defeated party have
been greatly advanced or carried to vic
tory
The conclusion is reached that De-
mocracy is stronger than the Democratic
party, which is plain enough 10 the
average citizen. But this only applies
10 the past The next congressional
election win probably tell a different
story and show that the party is run
ming neck and neck with its principles;
always providing that the two separate
and distinct branches Of the great or
ganization do not spend all of their
time throwing dead cats over each
others back fences. Democratic defeat
IN the last two or three elections was
not caused so much by the distrust Of
The people as by the radical difference
Of opinion existing among the party
leaders, and tt is time to get together
and start the next campaign right.

NEW JAPANESE TREATY.

Japan has arrived at the conclusion
that Baron Takahira, the ambassador
Of that country to the United States. is
too easy going, and when that diplomat
returns to Toxic for instructions he
will probably remain. Viscount Aok
was recalled because his home govern
ment thought he was not energetic
enough, and Takahira was sent over &c
replace him. Now the latter has also
failed to make good, from the japanese
point Of view, and must make room fol
another.
The existing treaty between Japan
and the United States will expire by
limitation in a year and a half. and the
NippOnese desire that the new treaty
shall greatly modify the existing con-
ditions. The military party being in
the ascendancy. Premier Katsura has
fallen under its influence and the pres
ent intention is doubtless to present a
bold front at Washington and bluff the
state department into making the de-
sired concessions. The provision in the
existing treaty specifically recognizing
the right Of this government to enact
a law excluding japanese laborers from
United States territory will be combat
ted by the Toxic government when the
next treaty Is under consideration. the
elimination of such a provision being
considered as the abrogation of that
right. A different view is held i'm
Washington, and if the treaty we're ST.
lent on that point it would be held that
this government had just as much right
to enact such a law as it had before.
An express prohibition I'm the new
treaty to bar the enactment of such a
law is not to be thought of. no matter
what the opinions or desires Of the jap
anese may be.
Many soft words have been spoken by
the representatives. of the two govern
ments in the past few years, but when
it comes to the Importation Of vast
hordes Of the little brown labOrers pala-
yer will cease and the new ambassador
be given to understand that there is a
line of demarkation between the white
and brown races and that il viii not be
crossed. so far as this country is con-
cerned. Both Aoki and Takahira prob
ably recognize this fact and trimmed
their sails accordingly.

IRRIGATION CONGRESS.

From year to year interest incres ses
in irrigation problems, and it is now the
settled policy Of the United States gov
eminent to place as many acres of arid
land under irrigati as possible, to the
end that the food supply of the country
may be increased and homes provided
for the surplus population. Irrigation
is as old as history, but the work of the
ancients was not enduring. in Mesopo-
tamia, for instance, and fields which
once yielded abundantly Of both fruit
and grain are now desert places. In
this country the system inaugurated
should last to the end of time, for
countless millions are being spent on
dams, reservoirs and bitches and the
finest engineering talent i'm the world
employed to ensure permanence and the
best possible present results. Some of
the projects have been completed and
the song of the harvester is heard in
places once given over to sand and
sagebrush Others are well under way
Millions Of acres of land in the great
west have been and are being reclaimed
Millions more will be looked after in
the near future.
In order that the experience gained
i'm irrigation work may be probably
used, the National Irrigation congress
was established. and great good has
been accomplished during the past few
years Dy the Interchange of ideas re-
garding the installation of a system and
the application Of the water to the land
itself. This year the congress meets
in Spokane, Aug. . to "A, and il goes
without saying that it will be the most
interesting and profitable meeting so
far held. Utah should, and doubtless
viii. be properly represented.

Owing to the growth of Minneapo-

made other city improvements, we
manage to pay off $4,000 a year on
our improvement bonds, which shows
that the town is substantial
