cHuRcHEs And CHILDREN.

In one Of the Sunday meetings DR..
Crane of Tiff Methodist church made a
valuable suggestion. 1t was to the eff
feet that improvement in method and
advance in result might be attained by
giving the young people the conduct of
church affairs, put the responsibility
upon them, and demand results.
He may have cut pretty close to the
skirts of some elderly gentlemen who
have stood before the congregations
from time immemoriaL But if he hit
on a scheme that has no hope, it is be-
cause the young people VIII fail in the
church when they don't fail outside
Go up and down the earth. and you
will note that the work is being done
by young men. OF course, they don't
know as much as we older people. But
Gladstone once said the difference was
that the young man didn't know what
he could not do-and- the old man did.
The young man starts straight ahead
a. The thing he cannot do. And be-
cause he is young and in earnest. he
does it. He accOmplishes the impossl-
BILE. All over the country are young
fellows achieving results which every
one of their elderly associates will
prove to you are utterly impossible.
If they can do that outside. why
can't they within the enterprises of the
church? We rather believe DR.. Crane
has hit on suggestion of more than
common value. And 1t viii be a wise
generation that listens to suggestions.

"MINE OWN PEOPLE,"

Americans have cause Of graduation
that only twenty-seven million out Of
the possible hundred million people in
the United States are Of foreign birth.
tt was supposed the number must be
much larger.
That means that this IS an American
nation that the great preponderance Of
the citizens are born under the stars
and stripes: that the principles Of the
republic are the natural birthright Of
the individual.
Big as IS the immigration element, it
must realize the same fate Of the
smaller body everywhere and always.
The force Of gravity will always go
with the larger body. The immigrant
Will catch step with the native Ameri-
can because the force Of his stronger
environment will compel II. He can no
more remain q German or a Russian or
a Frenchman here, retaining the SEN
4iments and ideals OF his fatherland,
than a drop Of ink could maintain its
identity in a stream Of clear water. His
birthright traditions fall away from
him. He partakes OF the loves and the
aspirations and the preJudices Of his
neighbors. And because OF that trans
forming force, he becomes a good
American citizen.
The native-born millions Of the Unit
ed States can fervently clasp hands
with the honest immigrant who comes
10 make part in the life Of the republic.
because as certainly as progress OF the
Guns, they are all Of our own people.

NOW THEY HAVE A HOME.

All members Of the board Of county
commissioners are to thanked by the
people for the purchase of property on
which 70 establish a detention home.
The place secured is pretty nearly ideal.
The location is right, the plant is ca
pable Of being made very good, indeed,
and the price paid is not unreasonable.
Boys who have started wrong will
have a better chance to get on the right
track. And as they grow older they
viii appreciate the help the communi-
ty was to them in the day when they
needed better direction.
Only one thing now is needed, and
that is a like provision for the girls.
There are not a great many Of them
who start wrong, but the Few are vast
ly worth saving And a little effort
and expense now will make all the diff
ference between good and bad women d
few years farther along.
The action Of the commissioners is
the more to be commended because it
spells civic economy. Every boy who
is saved at an expense of a thousand
dollars is worth ten times that sum in
direct values to the community when
he reaches manhood. And to that valu-
alton must be added the frightful
charge expressed in caring for him if
he should become a criminal
And by the same logic it viii be
economy to take care of the girls quite
as effectively.

WILLIAM TAFT, OUR NEIeHBoR.

That is one Of the effects Of the Pres
idents coming. He becomes something
more definite and understandable to the
people of the mighty west. Instead Of
an impersonal and distantly removed
conception, the President Of the United
States becomes an appreciate part of
the populace out Of which he has been
selected. He is the neighbor of every
man.
The people and the government get
nearer together. There is more charity
in the general mind for failures, the rea-
son or excuse for which they could not
see, Of the effects of which they were
impatient.
In no other way in the world could
the millions understand the big prob
Iems-AND THE BIG DIFFICULT
TIES! The general horizon is broad
ened immensely because Of the visit Of
the nations chief executive.
And if the people learn Of the Presi-
dent, and gain needed viewpoints be
cause Of his coming and his conferences
with them, be assured he gains some
thing of equal value from his contact
with the people of the west And the
administration win be the more sue
CessfuI because people and President
understand each other better, have a
better confidence in each other-and
know that the future viii hold the very
best results possible Of human accom-

SALT LAKE AND The FLYING
MACHINE.

One Floyd Curtiss, brother OF the
worlds champion flying man, was in
the city recently. and he said he be-
Iieved this the best place in the world
for aviatcrs. The great stretches Of
level ground, the great lake of buOyant
water, the low average wind velocity,
conspire TO make Salt Lake the place
FOR men who are learning to fly.
And that looks like sound reason.
Surely there is no other place combin-
inC the very qualities which the aero
plane needs. The bUoyancy Of water
IN the Great Salt lake is without equal
IN all the -sestern hemisphere. And
only in the Dead sea II Palestine can
another like it be found. Which makes
Salt Lake about the one claimant for
Donors. It would be worth money to
get the flying men to come here. They
would turn the attention OF the world
to Salt Lake. They would make the
city famous for mighty things.
One Of these days, and ont Of all the
experimenting that is going forward in
the conflict with air, some man is
going to solve the problem. pierce the
secret of the birds He is going really
20 fly.
Nowhere else on earth is there a place

TWO ITEMS FROM PRICE.

Here are two news paragraphs from
the Carbon County News, which give
the reader a good light on the affairs
of men in other parts Of the state:
J. W. Nixon Of Huntington was in
Price the first of the week making ar
engagements to ship a carload of the IA
nous Castle Valley honey to Chicago.
Mr.. Nixon SAYS he is not getting quite
as much for his honey this year as he
did last season on account Of considerably
more being raised in the middle states
than usual However, there is always a
demand for the Utah product at a high
e. price than for eastern honey.
e A, Howard of Huntington came to
Price the first of the week to get a new
Sawmin for the Castle Valley Coal COM
pany, to be used in getting out lumber
and ties for the big coal mine at Cedar
Creek and the ties to be used on the
railroad connecting the Cedar Creek coal
mine and the Southern Utah railroad near
the Miller Creek coal mine. Howard says
they are employing about fifty men and
are rushing things rapidly so as TO be
ready for fall shipments of coal
1t helps to show the variety and the
proftabIeBess Of Utah labor.

THE FREIGHT RATE HEARING.

Naturally the people Of the west are
looking with great interest to the COM
ing freight rate hearing in Salt Lake
before the interstate commerce COM
mission. On the result OF that inquiry
depends much Of value to every mem
Der of the commonwealth. And the one
thing expected of the Commercial
clubs traffic bureau is that it present
its case,
Before the hearing begins it would
hardly be fitting to advocate any line
Of decision; to attack one side, or seek
to advance the interest Of the other. 1t
is presumed the commission viii de-
eide the matters before It IN such man
ner as to benefit the whole people If
the right shall prevail, that decision
viii be Of help not alone to the citizens
of Utah, but to the mountain country
generally-and through this great sec
ton, to the best interests of the nation
at large.
We believe the case has been care
fully and adequately prepared. We
believe it will be ably presented. We
believe the commission is inspired with
the sole purpose Of arriving at the facts
and pronouncing justice
Surely with that the great case can
be left to the appointed tribunal
Meantime, we should not like to see
attacks on either side from any source,
pending the hearing, or while it is in
progress. Such a course would partake
as much of unwisdom as Of bad taste.

A SAFE AND SANE PRESIDENT.

Surely the interests of the people are
safe in the hands Of President Taft.
His address at Omaha on Monday is an
unmistakable evidence that he perfect
~. understands the problems that con-
front the nation, and that he has the
wisdom to see the right solution, and
the courage to declare it. Here is his
statement touching combinations in re
straint Of trade:
All combinations to suppress Competi-
ton, or to maintain monopoly in whole
or in part of interstate trade, are and
should be in violation OF the antitrust
law, and should be punished as SUCH and
there IS no room for the expression
reasonable or unTeasOnable-in this gen.
eraI view of the statute.
All through the speech that same
large view Of serene equity marks the
Presidents position. As he spoke of
the tariff, indorsing the reductions of
the new law and reaching forth for still
further reductions in future, so in the
veXing matter of trusts and combina-
tons he has seen the right course, and
has been brave enough to urge progress
along that line.
The country is TO be congratulated on
the Presidents speeches on this great
journey. Never before has a nations
chief executive made a tour under cir
.cumstances quite so favorable to the
general good of the republic. And
never before has the nation listened so
intently or so proftably to the ad-
dresses made.

THE PRIDE OF RACE.

It is a good thing to be an American
these times-more so that ever before.
Here is the nation Of leaders. Here is
the country OF accomplishment. Here
is the place of eminence in all achieve
ment.
\ little poem from the Baltimore Sun
gives the keynote to the current song
Of patriotic praise:
We do the things that others dream,
We cross the dark unto the CLEAN;
We fly while others try their wings;
we are the folks that do the things.
We lay the cables, tunnel hills,
Harness our motors to the TillS.
Take the high air with dash of bird,
Speak through unbridled leagues our
word,
We people plains and tame the wild.
Rear our great structures sl1yward piled,
Pierce with our shrieking engines bell
Void wastes and inaccessible.
We do the things, we act, we are:
ours is the magic in the jar:
PrestOi and at our touch earths need
Wakes in some new-wrought dream Of
speed.
Unmeasured space in our control,
We are the masters of the pole;
Seas depth, winds strength, heats
sting, airs height,
Come to our knees and drink the light.
one reads it and turns to the clarion
call Of Kipling, when he lighted the
fires of praise for EngIishmen:
Truly We come Of the Blood: Slower to
bless than TO ban;
Little used TO lie down at the bidding OF
any man.
Flesh of the flesh that I bred, bone of
the bone that 1 bear,
Stark as your sons shall be, stern as
your fathers were.
There is no strife in the Anglo-Saxon
family. But against the splendid ego
tism of the Englishman-and none has
so magicaIly voiced it as has Kipling-
it is good to set the record of Ameri-
cas- actual dominance; Americas ac-
complishment; Americas triumph il
every field.
1t is good to be an American.

NOTHING TOO GOOD FOR THEM.

There is nothing too good for a NON
who has done effective work in SAT-
Lake. And wherever they go, they :, t

T. Jenkins, first mining editor Of the
Republican, establishing himself as a
broker in New York. His address is
10 Exchange Place, in the biggest city.
And a paragraph from his initial letter
to the world is as follows:
That the clients Of this house and the
recipients of these letters may at all times
be accurately informed and intelligently
advised upon every and all offerings
from the various camps and districts.
our communication with them has been
perfected as never before and to all or
ders or acquisitions by mail or wire i'm

Advices from New York are to the
effect that Mr.. Jenkins mas caught suap
with the mihonaires, and they are GLAD
to walk with him, They viii profit by
consulting him, and we don't think the
mfllionaires will hurt 10 much.
He is enjoying success because he
won it. And there is a like lesson fer
every other man-here and elsewhere.
