Every mother of sons ought to keep an accident box" containing a spool of adhesive plaster, package of car bolated cotton, a bottle of boracic acid and some soft old linen. A fresh cut should be carefully bathed immediate ly and bandaged to keep out the dirt, which so often contains germs of lock jaw. If there is much bleeding, first close the wound with the plaster, then cover 1t with the cotton. An applica- tion of alcohol will easily remove the plaster.

Cuban Government Faces Big Deficit

Cupdn OoVernment aces 6IQ Deficit.
 Havana.-Financial problems con- stitute the gravest feature of anxiety on the part of the Cuban government and with the protracted delay in the presentation of the budget for the coming year the general feeling of uncertainty and lack of confidence becomes accentuated. "Can the gov ernment, in view of it's enormously increased expenses, dsle in great measure to the cost of equipment and pay of the new permanent army, the cost of the national legislature and the vastly increased number of civil employees arising from political pres sure for offices, meet it's obligations out of the ordinary sources of reve- nue?" is the question asked on all sides. Estimates of the expenses of the government for the coming year place the total at not less than S30,. 000,000 and by some authorities as high as s40,000,000, indicating under the most favorable conditions a very serious deficit, the estimated revenue available being only $24,000,000

is built, every bridge that is built,
every house with iron girders that
is erected, must pay tribute to
this great trust. In other words,
there is a tax of S4oo,ooo,o ,ooc
every year on the prosperity of
this country that is paid to the
steel trust so that if this tariff
were removed, instead of making
the steel trust present of $500,
100000 year, that money would
start new enterprise and indust-
ries which would greatly aid our
prosperity. President Taft promis
ed that the tariff shall be adjusted
so as to give fair return to the
manufacturer on the money invest
ed and fair wages to the workmen
they employ. The American peo
pie heartily endorse this position
and Congress is expected to carry
this promise into effect.
There is one great difficulty in
the way however, and that is
Speaker Cannon; 1t is we'll known
that he stands for an excessive
and practically exhorbitant tariff
and he has been a thorn in the
side of President Roosevelt and
bids fair to a burden on the hands
of President Taft. 1t is a misfor-
tune that this old fogy, nearly
eighty years old, should preside
over Congress in these progress
sive times.
The Republican majority in
Congress has steadily decreased
nnder his leadership until now the
majority is but one-third of what
it was four years ago when Re-
publican victories have otherwise
been practically as overwhelming,
1t is we'll known on inside circles
that President Taft would well
come new progressive Speaker
in the place of Mr.. Cannon who
has become liability rather than
an asset of the Republican party.
The farmers of this country have
great confidence in President Taft
and they expect substantial re-
duction in the tariff all along the
line which will give them relief
from the cordage trust, the wire
nail trust, the harvester trust, the
fhrming implement trust and
every other trust that derives nou
rishment and power from this ex-
cessiyely high tariff. Every man

WASHINGTON LETTER.

Washington, March IS, 1909.
Congress assembled to-day in
response to a special call of Presi-
dent Taft in conformity with the
promise that he made to the peo-
pie of this country last Fall.
President Taft promised that, if
elected, he would Immediately
call Congress together to revise
the tariff and that the revision
should be honestly and fearlessly
made. Everyone knows but for
his promise, backed by his we'll
known sincerity Bryan and the
Democratic party would have
been swept into power on a tidal
wave. The excessively protected
industries are now hard at work
trying to convience Congress that
this, promise of Mr.. Taft was only
bluff. These industries have
been enjoying a degree of Protec-
ton much higher than was neces-
sary to insure a fair profit TO the
manufactures and fair wages to
every workman. The steel trust,
for instance, has made annually
S4oo, 900, 900 more than fair pro
fit on the money invested. They
have been selling steel rails to the
American people for S2S per ton
and selling those same rails deli
Vered in London and other Euro
pean centers at S22 to S24 per ton.
1t is obvious that the American
tariff is not necessary to the Anne
rlcan manufacturer when he goes
In all foreign fields. If he can
sell IN the markets where competl
tion is strong without the aid OF
protection, why should he be
given tariff that is nothing more
than a license to ROB the Amerl-
can people. Every railroad that

who stands in the way of an ho
nest and fair reduction of the ia
riff, is working against the Repub
licans and for a sweeping Demo
cratic victory in the next Congress
sional election.
So far as the reference to Spea-
ker Cannon in the foregoing is
concerned, it is doubted that a
man, such as Cannon is put up to
be by insurgent republicans and
democrats OF Congress, would re-
ceive the speakership for the
fourth time. Cannon may stand
pat" on high tariff, but he GER
tainly is not the whole Congress,
unless the 382 members are COO
ckoos. The only place where he
might have obstructed reform
measures would be in the order OF
bringing them before the House
but the former order in this spe-
cial session has been changed
So it now is decisively the major,
ity and not Joseph Cannon.

PUEBLO PARENTS
WANT THEIR GIRL
Police Here Locate the Child,
Whom They Believe Was
Kidnapped.

Nyonne Tumbleson, a pretty f4-year-
old girl, who is supposed to have been
kidnapped from her parents at Pueblo,
was taken in charge by the police yes
terday morning and is being held pend
ing word from the Pueblo police.
Three years ago the girl came to Salt
Lake with Mrs. E. A. Guyer. a former
resident OF Salida, Colo, and has been
staying with her at "a East Fourth
North street. Recently the police re-
ceiVed word from Pueblo to locate the
girl, and yesterdays episode followed.
Mrs. Guyer earnestly disclaims any
knowledge Of kidnapping the girl, and
tells the police that when she and her
husband left Salida the girl who was
working for them, asked to come with
them. Likewise the girl tells of having
come of her own free will, although she
appeared delighted when told by the pO-
lice that she was to be sent back TO her
parents.
It is gathered from the brief telegram
from the Pueblo authorities that the
parents of VyOnne Tumbleson have
been searching for her since she disap-
peaTed. Her location in Salt Lake was
but recently discovered, and it is the
opinion of the Pueblo police that she
was kidnapped.
The girl is at the police station and
will likely be sent to Pueblo as soon as
the authorities of that place respond TO
the message sent by the chief of police
here last night.

DOCTORS AGREE
IT'S THAT SEWER
UnSanitary Condition of West
Side Traced to Intercept
ing Pipe.

That the unsanitary condition of the
west side Of Salt Lake, caused by the
non-completion of the intercepting and
outlet sewers, is directly responsible
for eight cases of typhoid fever is the
belief Of prominent physicians of Salt
Lake, and is partly admitted by mem
bers Of the city board of health. In
the report Of the city health department
for the week it is shown that eleven
cases Of typhoid fever exist in the city,
as against only two for the week pre-
vious, and eight of the eleven cases
are on the west side in the district
which VIII be taken care of by the
intercepting sewer.
Cess pools which have been used for
years have been neglected through the
promises Of the city administration that
the sewer would be ready by last
spring, but work is still being done on
the sewer and 1t may be another month
before sewage is passing through this
channel, then through the outlet pipe
to the river.
There were twenty-five cases. of con-
agious or infectious disease reported
during the week, as against only twelve
for the week before. Smallpox is be-
ing held in check, but five new cases
of scarlet fever developed during the
week. Other diseases were reported
as follows, Diphtheria, one; typhoid
fever, eleven, and whOOping cough, two.
There were forty-three births dur
ing the week, and the boys won out in
a close race by score Of tWenty-three
to twenty. Of twenty-three deaths,
twelve were males and eleven females.
Six bodies were brought to Salt Lake
for burial.
The report shows four houses still
guaranteed on account of smallpox,
twelve for scarlet fever and one for
diphtheria. One case of smallpox is
being taken care of at the isolation
hospital.

RAILWAYS SHOW

New York, Sept. 1.-THE action of the
Union Pacific and Southern Pacific rail
road systems in suspending operations for
one minute during the funeral Of Edward
H. Hartman, Sunday afternoon, will be
followed by most of the other railroads
in which the financier was interested,
and by other interests. The Erie rail-
road and the Delaware & Hudson, it was
said would join the western Hartman
lines I'm the stoppage of trains at the hour
of the funeral, and it was though that
the Illinois Central would also show the
same mark of respect.
During that one minute on Sunday aft
ernOOn not a wheel will be turning on any
part of the 1900 miles comprising the
Union and Southern Pacific systems, and
the same quiet may be ordered on other
systems included in the 5000 miles of
railroad which, to a greater or less de-
gree, were under the domination of Z. H.
Hartman. The last time any such mark
of respect was shown by the Transport

the occasion of the funeral of President
Mckinley 1t was not recalled yester-
day that any such cessation of railroad

Real Estate Man Visits Cities of

attending the irrigation congress, which
he found quite interesting, he paid a
visit to several other cities

Mr.. Froiseth says the Seattle real es-
tate people think that, while matters
may quiet down somewhat after the
fair, the exposition will have a bene-
fetal effect. Much of the building which
is going on in the Washington cities is
of business structures, while the build
ing of residences is said TO be behind
that of Salt Lake
After visiting Seattle, Mr.. Fr0iseth
went to Victoria and Vancouver, Brit

he found that much interest was taken
in Utah by the visitors whom he met.
