LEARNING ANOTHER LESSON.

This war which Spain is prosecuting
in Africa seems certain to result in an
other disastrous lesson for the Don. The
world generally has believed that
Spains opportunity was strictly a do
mestic one. The nation is not strong
enough to reach beyond seas. And
nothing to be gained in that distant
realm can at all compensate them for
the expense of money and of men
even if success should perch on the
Spanish standards. And every day
there is less and less likelihood of such
an outcome of the fighting.
The Spanish. character is not yet fit
ted for modern national expression. The
people have not yet emerged from that
past in which their prestige was unchal-
lenged throughout the world. It is not
likely that reconstruction can be eff
fected there. There is no influx of new
blood, no great event overturning the
ancient establishment.
And yet the rulers of Spain constant
ly face the problem of destiny with
warlike people, an impetuous and in
many respects an admirable race. If
they We're more like the Swiss or the
Hollander, they might solidify the I'M
doubted elements Of strength in their
nation, and so come to the position of
recognition abroad.
Until that time shall come, it is GER
tain that Spain would profit by cutting
loose every foreign possession, and de-
vote itself to the upbuilding of the ma
ton at home.

DIR. COOK AND HIS RECORDS.

Commander Peary is ready to submit
his records, his instruments and the
notes of his arctic observations to an
American jury; and DIR. Cook desires
a postponement of his presentation be-
cause he has promised to give the Uni
versity of Copenhagen first view, and
proposes to keep the promise.
At first thought one is inclined to re-
gard this position of Cook as an addi-
tional indication that his cause is weak.
But that does not necessarily follow.
When he came back from the north he
was first greeted and welcomed by the
Danes. A scholarly people. they ap-
preciated the value of his declared
achievement. They gave him a very
royal welcome.
In that entertainment, and the graft
tude invoked by it, one can understand
the action of an impulsive man, re-
turning after long time and many hard
ships to a civilization at once cordial
and appreciative.
He is an American. and he should
have reserved his exhibit and his proofs
for his own country. But considering
the inducements of the hour, it is not to
be held against the truth of his story
that he pledged himself to the Danes
first

CELEBRATIONS IN NEW YORK.

Almost every year the people of New
York City get up a big celebration.
Usually it has something TO do with
marine affairs-a fact easily explained
by the position of the city, and the
natural conditions of availability. And
whenever they have a big show they
brings uncounted thousands of visitors,
get the eye Of the world impress all
mankind with the splendor and stu
pendous works of New York, and send
the incident adrift into history as one
more evidence of the eminence of their
city.
The point to be remembered by Utah
people is that New York makes ceIe-
bration whenever possible And that
there is profit of a very substantial
kind in every show.
In Chicago the enterprise of the peo-
pie is constantly expressed in conven-
lions, in stock shows, in expositions, in
every sort of attraction which will
bring the people to Chicago, and set the
multitudes talking of the place and its
prominence. And there again is the
same lesson for the people of Utah.
Salt Lake is already the best adver-
tised city in the world. Nothing in the
United States at all compares with the
invitation of this city. Every one wants
TO see Salt Lake. Whoever goes across
the continent makes it a point to come
here.
Half the work for big shows already
is accomplished. All that is needed is
for our people to take advantage of the
condition as it exists. They can have
an automobile show here better than
that at Ornonde beach. They can
have a better assembling of aeronauts
with their various machines than any
other city, such a show as that now in
successful tide at Seattle, or either of
the many that have gone before.
These things cost money, but it is the
universal verdict that they pay.
A movement is on foot to celebrate at
San Diego the completion of the Pana-
ma canal in mathematician. The
HEllCillC appears " nave SDDu BcNhillSr
and to be handled in a capable manner
If those plans go forward as they prom
Use to, Salt Lake should give its big
fair-its national fair-in that same
year. It will not be to the detriment of
the San Diego enterprise, but will sup
plement it. People will come the quick
er if they can see the pageant there and
the exposition here. OF course, it is a
good while in the future; but it is no
farther for us than for San Diego.
And plans for the accomplishment of
great show here in Salt Lake ought to
be begun at once.
There will be other shows in the
meantime. But Salt Lake should be
ready to take advantage of the situa-
ton in nineteen-fifteen.

REDUCING THE DEFICIT.

The American people have stopped
getting nervous when there is a treas
ury deficit under a Republican admin
istration, They know the capabilities
of the Republican statesmen. They
have seen the party put to the test so
often, and have seen it emerge triumph
antly with so unvarying a record, that
they know the balance on the wrong
side OF the ledger will soon be correct
ed, and that the finances of the nation
will be successfully administered.
They are getting another proof of that
principle now. The expenses of govern
ment are being reduced, and the excess
of revenue is constantly increasing.
Day by day the deficit grows smaller
and the burdens of the people are not
made more heavy to accomplish the de-
sired result.
One objection offered to the new tariff
law was that it would add nothing to
the revenue of the nation. But the
men who succeeded in effecting legisla-
ton in the extra session knew better
The result demonstrates their wisdom
And when the income tax shall have
been approved by the people, there will
be an instant increase of revenues for
the government, and a consequent low
ering of the rates which apply to that
element called "the ultimate consumer"
It is a proud thing to be a member
of the Republican party. And Utah
people who have allowed themselves to
be separated from it must feel that
they have gained nothing to compen-
safe them for their unnecessary defec-
ton.

ture is this: King Kamehameha Ill
should attend to the duties of the gov
eminent himself with the assistance
of his premier, the chiefs, and the
learned men throughout Hawaii, who
are honest. This is the best course for
you to follow each day in reference
to the government, and not to be vast
ing time, but be watchful and be dill
gent in air those things that will be
of benefit to the people and which will
bring general prosperity to the country.
Let the officials who are foreigners
whom you have appointed to help in the
affairs of the government and whom
the chiefs think are men of superior
intellect who have entered into the
study of the best means of development
of the resources of Hawaii, be retained
by you as advisers, but under system
of agreement, say for three or four
years, but not by making them citizens
under oath, then at the end of the
time specified in the agreement they
be dismissed, otherwise they viii pre-
dominate over the chiefs, the throne,
the government, the people and the
country, after you, the high chiefs, are
dead. Then the country will be taken
away by the foreigners.
The, fourth reason of this petition to
the members of the Legislature is this:
The people who buy and lease lands
in Kauai should live on that islam the
same with those of Oahu, Maui and
Hawaii. The chiefs and people should
not leave their lands and go to other
lands, but travelling from place to place
for the purpose of trade should be al
lowed, but in course of time each trader
should go back to his own land.
The fifth reason of this petition to
the voters of the country is this:
When tract of land is sold to a
foreigner what will become of the men
on the lands Are they sold with the
land and thus become his servants 7
This is only intended as a means of
| information and you can answer this
| later But according to the results of
some of the lands sold in the western
| part of India, it is made clear that
some of the black people are being sold
together with the land at this present
| time. If some of the chiefs had re-
fused to sell the lands to the foreigners
we, the people, believe that the for,
eigners would never have had any
lands.

limits of punishment for enlisted men
of the army in accordance with an act
of Congress approved September, 1890.
Heretofore the punishments prescribed
for desertion varied according to wheth.
er the soldier surrendered or was APP
pretended, length of service and dura-
ton of desertion The limit of punish
ment now fixed for simple desertion is
three years, with increased limits for
previous convictions and when in execu-
ton of a conspiracy or in the presence
of hostile Indians or unlawful assem-
blage. Increased punishment is pre-,
scribed for selling or losing clothing,
accouterments, ETC., and also for alb
sence without leave. Slight modifca-
tons are made in the requirements in
the matter Of previous convictions to
justify dishonorable discharge for minor
offenses.
Reducing Expenses of Physical Tests.
Several members of the Home COM
mittee on expenditures under the War
Department have been making inquiry
of the paymaster general concerning the
expenditures under the mileage fund
for the physical tests in horsemanship,
etc. In the last fiscal year the records
show that this draft upon the mileage
fund amounted to $1,000. In the
| hearings which were held before the
House military committee, Representa-.
| tive Anthony, a member of that com
mittee, attacked the War Department
for what he regarded as "useless ex-
penditure. - He insisted that the
amount for mileage could be materially
reduced by having these horseback rides
| held at posts where officers are station
ed instead of ordering them to places
at a distance, involving long stretches
of travel. Representative Slayden, an.
| other member of the military commit.
tee, agreed with him. That may be
done by revision of the system, which
is under consideration by the general
staff.
Tightening the Tnfantryman' Load
One of the important questions whicf
will be taken up by a special board on
| army officers will be the attempt to
devise a means of lessening the burden
of the foot soldier. Much criticism
has been filed with the War Depart
ment by officers who express the views
of the infantrymen who have taken
periodical practice marches in which
they are laden with the full equipment
of food, clothing and ammunition they
are supposed to carry in time of action
1t is appreciated by the military author
J tiles that the soldier who walks must
bear in the field as little in the way
of burden as it is possible for hi.
efficiency as a fighting unit. If any
of the present load can be omitted ant
carried on the wagons or by the pacl
animals, it is realized that relief should
be afforded.
