GREAT CHANGE I'M
UNION PACIFIC.

The degree of success attained by
E H. Hartman in his control of
Union Pacific Is eloquently presented
in this comment by a brokerage firm
on Union Pacific stock:
In the broad general market this
week Union Pacific resumed It's posi-
tion Of leadership. Throughout the
general advance of 1908 Union Pacific
showed the most natural discountIng
movement, and altogether. since the
suspension of bullish activity three
months ago. has maintained the most
consistently steady level.
There is to be said TO Union Pa.
ciiic'S present advantage that il pos
sesses stronger favor with the specu-
lative and investment public at this
level than at any previous uplifting
movement during the year past. AL

BIG CANADIAN FACTORIES
EVAOE CHILD LABOR LAW

Samuel Gompers, president of the
American Federation of Labor. and the
other high officials of that great or
GanlZation, whose membership. now
totals in the neighborhood of three mil
lion hard-working men and women,
skilled and unskilled, are profoundly
interested in report which has just
been transmitted To them on existing
conditions in the cotton factories of
the Dominion Of Canada. This report
is the work of the Hon. w. L. Mac.
Kenzie King. who was appointed a
royal commissioner last summer to
inquire into the conditions of labor in
the cotton mills of the Province OF
Quebec. which led up to the strike
Involving 5000 operators and was re-

particularly dealing with child labor.
The strike was the result of re-
duction of wages to all cotton mill
operators by 10 per cent The report
critioises the employers for the curt
manner in which notice was given of
the intended reduction in the face Of
report OF COOL dividends during the
preceding year
He finds, however, that some of the
labor leaders were principally TO
blame for the calling of IAN ill-tlmed
and disastrous strike.' Personal en-
mites and ambitions caused dissen-

and arbitration been adopted
He recommends that permanent
boards of conclliation be appointed
to which all disputes should be re.
fcrred before a strike or lockout Is
declared. that one months notice OF
any change In the rate of wages or
conditions Of labor should always be
given. and that some form of labor ca.
partnership and prolit-sharing should
be adopted
With regard to the effects of the
tariff reduction In bringing about tho
strike, he finds that the tariff was not
primarily responsible. although at a
time of worldwide industrial depres-
sion the lowering of the tari0f piob'
ably caused competition from abroad
to be more keenly felt.
The tariff. however, he says, was
not responsible for the falling of In
the cotton trade, but rather the busi'
ness depression which produced SINH
lar curtailment OF business In all other
countries. Under ordinary conditions
the present tariff would be quite ade-
quate.
The most interesting part of the re-
port is in connection with the ques'
ton OF child labor. The factory law
Of Quebec. which places its age limit
for child labor at Ii years, has been
eyaded and many instances were
found where children under the Legal
age were employed.

CATHOLIC EDITOR OPPOSES
PROHIBITION.

The lntermountain Catholic of Salt
Lake, takes a peculiar position on the
liquor question, and, In order that all
points of view of all creeds and
classes may be understood. we here re.
produce an editorial on prohibition
appearing In today's issue of the Cath
lie. as follows:
A horrible rumor last week reached
the ears of the manager of The Inter
mountin Catholic that our paper must
be warm friend OF the saloon. since

Of Prohibition" when the resolution
In Its favor was up for discussion in
the legislature. We are emphatically
opposed to prohibition to vote for It Is
To vote for a dream. We honestly be-
leve that fanatlcism on the question
of temperance is sure sign of failure.
Particularly when this fanaticism is
partially assumed to convince our
neighbors how strictly We observe the
ten commandments and the "holier
than thou" 1t is an obnoxious phase
of that form of spurious enthusiasm
which induces some of us to indulge,
at times, in kind of spread-eagle
patriotism, There are well-meaning
people whose rendering of the Com
mandments is-'Hate wbiskey and
love the American eagle" This Is a
mood. 1t will pass In time and lead to
a more reasonable frame of mind.
Our position on the liquor question
Is this, We are in favor of High Ii.
cense. the higher the better; OF grant
ing saloon license only to a man Of
good standing in the community and
whose application for license is sign
ed by ten educated and respectable
rate-payers; OF making the saloon de-
cent by putting it under the control of
decent men. Many of our saloon pro-
prietors are as clean. decent and re-

difference in the mileage OF the San

from Los Angeles to Ogden.
The Hartman road which is the
Hazen route, will parallel the Los An
seles aqueduct for a long distance
and viii play an important part in
she construction OF that big conduit.
IT is said that when trains begin
TO run over the entire route. regular
passenger trains will maloe the dis
lance from Los Angeles to Ogden
without change. and there is pos
sibility that the road will be given a
distinctive name and be operated as
unit from Ogden to Los Ange-
les, making the eastern terminal of
the present Southern Pacific at Hazen.
II is also reported that oil-burning en-
gines will be used instead of coal
burners.
These possible railroad changes will
be to the best interest of Ogden.

INVITE MR.. KINGSLEY TO OGDEN

in Salt Lake City at the present time
for the purpose of investing money in

Mr.. Kingsley is quoted as saying, to in
vest its funds in what is known as
liquid assets" He had been called on
In the past to invest S5.000.000, and
expected In the near future to invest
for the company $2,000,000 The most
satisfactory investment, he said, was
In approved real estate. Such invest
mentS eliminated the possibility of any
demand being made on the company
that it could not meet In real estate
investments the rate of interest, he
said. was higher and safer than in any
other holdings

the Information l was looking for, and
can say authoritatlyely that the New
York Life will invest from $300,000 to
100000 in Salt Lake real estate. and
that very soon"
Before Mr.. Kingsley, who is a west
ern man, having been editor of the
Grand Junction News, leaves this
state. he should be invited to Ogden.
and we understand that the officers of
the Weber Club are now in communi-
cation with him for that purpose II
Mr. Kingsley comes here, he should be
shown over the city and be brought in
contact with our leading citizens. We
know of a prominent citizen who will
