On Important Committees.

Representative Hansen of Box Elder
draws the Craftsmanship of the committee
on public utilities. This committee takes
the place of the former committee on
railroads. Baker of Tooele gets the
craftsmanship of the committee on man
ufacture and commerce. This commit
tee will have charge of the prohibition
legislation. Senator Kuchler Is chairman
OF the corresponding committee in the
senate. England of Weber. on the cleo
tons committee. would probably have
charge of local option legislation.
One Of the committees of Importance is
that of which Hugh MacMillin IS chair
man, the committee on salaries. 1t is
proposed in the governors message to
revive the old bureau of statistics or TO
create a new one. MIR. MacMillin has had
the chair Of statistics in the office of the
state auditor for two years. and"iS nat
uraily the man best qualified to have the
Craftsmanship of this committee. Mr..
MacHillin is lso chairman of the apprO-
priat ons committee.
Bishop Mcmillan is thoroughly CONVEX
SAINT with that which has to do with the
proposed capitol and capitol grounds.
His selection as chairman of the capitol
committee will be satisfactory to the
house members.

THE MILLS
OF THE GODS
BY RICHARD S. GRAVES

When II was first mentioned that
the mills OF the gods grind slowly /
have no doubt Ii was true. Every
thing was slow In those days. The
mills had always been grinding slowly
when those words were first written,
perhaps as slowly as some of the
courts grind at this time, and there
was no reaso to believe they would
eye improve.
The observer added as a sort OF
consolation hat they grind exceeding
ly flne, and let 1t go at that. Even that
Is more than can be said of some
courts, to continue the comparison
between the mills and the courts.
The mills of the gods were very
slow at one time. There Is no doubt
about 1t. There was an era when
men stalked around covered with ar
NOR, firm In the belief that they were
warriors, and the kind of converse
ton they carried on with each other,
II the historical noyelists have reported
1t correctly, was sufficient p%rovocation
for throwing them into the nearest
and fastest mill.
There was another period when men
wore knee trousers and powdered
their hair. Those who wore armor
and the others who dressed them
selves like clowns are all dead now,
but they were allowed to live out the
usual span OF life.
At a later time people listened to
stump speeches and allowed the
speakers to live, Considering some of
the speeches history has preserved for
us 1t is almost certain the mills of the
gods must have been undergoing re
pairs just then.
1t Is impossible to doubt that the
mills ground slowly after taking one
glance into the past. We may recon
cile this condition to the crying need
of those days by the reflection that all
machinery is imperfect at first. If
Robert Fulton could come back now
and be present at the anniversary
celebration he would have to admit
that the steamboats, he used to build
were dinky.
The mills OF the gods may not have
advanced as rapidly as steamships and
automobiles in recent years, but they
still are grinding. | think they began
to improve some years ago. | have
noticed several of the grists that have
been turned out and as far as | could
see they were all right. Neither could
any complaint be made by a reason.
which the work was done.
There was a brass band in a country
town a few years ago, the members Of
The Falls City tribune., 1909-08-13
"Praotlcing in a Room Back Of the
Livery Stable"

which practiced five nights each
week, and 1t will serve as an illustra-
ton OF the work the mills OF the gods
have been doing. The practicing was
done In a room back of the livery
stable. The building had been a corn
crib and was open, but the roof was
good. The r~ehearsals were rather
tention Of the players but they did
not care. The noise they made would
have torn the sides out of any other
building, SO 1t did not matter.
The instruments were placed In q
large chest and left in the building
when the band was not practicing,
but 1t was not often that they were in
the chest.
One night a fire broke out in the
corner of the building where the
chest stood, somebody having careless
ly poured a lot of coal oil there. Be-
fore the fire could be quenched the in
struments were reduced to ~blackened
and worthless brass. They were a
total loss, there being no insurance.
The town never raised enough money
to replace the instruments.
Nobody thought of 1t at the time,
but I know now that the grist was
turned out by one of the mills of the
gods. l wish l knew which mill. There
are other grists l would like to take
there. Anybody can zee that the
grist vas exceeding fine, and that is
evidence thar 1t was from one Of the
mills. 1t may be circumstantial, but
still IL il evidence.
ThoCe who have listened to the
music Of a band hailing from a small
town will readily agree with the posi-.
ton I have taken. The fact that
about a barrel of coal oil was spilled In
the corner OF the building may or may
not be taken into consideration. The
result Is the same in any event.
1t is useless to try to convince me
that the mills of the gods do not grind
faster now than they used to years
ago. The band had been practicing
only 80 days.

PERAMBULATING SALOONS.
Revenue Men Annoyed In Prohibition
 Territory.

The internal revenue officers an- nounce that they are being greatly an- noyed in the country districts by the presence of 'perambulating saloons, says The New Orleans Times Demo- crat They say that these institutions with the appellation suggestive of walking buildings abound particular ly in the prohibition districts. where "perambulating saloons" are more of a necessity than they are in the towns equipped with 8 plethora of thirstori- umR.
 Noah Webster and his contenpora- ries make no mention of this term Tn their works on words and what they mean: neither have the arbiters of good usage in English Issued any bull letins permitting the adjective per ambulating" to be applied to the noun saloon" It is just a handy and re- gently coined term, framed for the phe- nomenn which 1t describes or purports to describe.
 'PerAmbulating saloons" ars not that variety of Bacchian resorts pro- vided with wheels and drawn from thirsty place to thirsty place by some locomotive power. Neither are they aeroplanes which contain choice as- sortments of "sky juices," for dispen- sation to those of the dry palates. Mod ern science forbids the belief that they are winged creatures from another land, bearing in massive hampers di- vers napkin-covered bottles of that virile liquid which chases skeletons from feasts and paints landscapes on the brains of men. They nre none or thoEe. They are just mercenary nor tals. with a flask in each pocket. a flask in each shirt bosom. another in each hat. and a few tucked away in their boots.
 It is reported that every section of the State wherein a law forbids the consumption and the sale of alcoholic spirits is infested with them fin hordes They pay no taxes. and unless fresh from a line of sales when apprchend- ed by the officers. they pay no fines They can't. It Is the erfect, say the | ofncials, of the high license tax, which makes it impossible for them to con- duct establishments, as many formerly did, and forces them 10 traffic on the public highways. Eut they are being caught with great regularity npwa- days and are being brought sharply tr task for their disregard of the law l Consequently saloon keeping a Ia the "perambulating" method IS on the wane as an attractive business, and i' Is thought that a short time longer and renewed vigilance for possible offenders and added severity for dis. 1 covered offenders will be successful Ir exterminating the genus from tns State.
