YELLOWSTONE AND THE CRANE
CANYON.

We read with interest the proposal
to build an automobile road to the yell
lowstone, and are glad the scheme has
excellent encouragement.
But it would be infinitely better for
our people to have road. to the Grand
Canyon of the Colorado. There are
plenty of ways to get to the Yellow
stone. Salt Lake is only one of them
and until the recent work of the Oregon
Short Line, not to be considered.
There is at present only one way to
get to the Grand Canyon, and this is by
! the Santa Fe railroad through Arizona
and $4,000 people go there by that
route every year.
But a road from Marysvale to the
canyon would send a hundred thousand
through wonderland by way of Utah
every. season. And the visitors would
be on the right instead of the wrong
side of the canyon by the northern APP
| proach.
The Rio Grande has a railroad line to
Marysvale. If that company should
extend the road to the canyon, it would
turn more tourist travel to the wonders
/ of southern Utah than the Santa Fe
| handles from January to June.
And pending the completion of that
! Iine-which viii surely come-if our
people were to make a good automobile
road south from Marysvale to the Colo
RADIO, they would gather a harvest OF
/ dollars, develop the marvelously rich re-
sources of the southern part Of the
state, and give the visitors ten times
more for their money than the Santa
/ Fe's patrons can possibly realize.
There are more beauties and more
/ marveIs between the PaUoVan range
and the southern rim of the Grand
/ Canyon than the Yellowstone win have
in the next million years.

GOODBYE, Mr.. CLAWS.

There will be a sudden cessation of
the newspaper war on Secretary Bal
Iinger Of the presidents cabinet Mr.
CLAWS. a subordinate of the interior de
partment, who has been the author Of
the multitudinoUs attacks on his su-
perior, who has been furnishing mate
riaI'' to the brewers of trouble, who has
been trying to convince the nation that
one of its chiefest officers is a scoundTeI
has been dropped from the service be
cause he could not sustain the charges.
President Taft has given him every
opportunity and he has nothing better
to offer i'm support Of his accusations OF
criminaIity. of betrayal of the public,
than rumor, suspicion, and the evident
in temper of a born scoId.
Readers of many pspers-Collicr's,
among them-have been assuring us
| that NIr. BaIIinger is a very wicked and
dangerous man. The current number
of the journal mentioned carries an in
dictmeut Of which its editors should he
ashamed. Now that the father of the
case against the secretary has had his
day in court, and has failed utterly to
prove the bad accusations, and has
meen iucontiuently driven i'm disgrace
from the public service, it will be in or
der for the newspaper dupes of CLAWS
to curse him and let him die.
Tt isn't convincing TO speak vaguely
of coal lands and copper lands i'm Alas
ka. and then italicize the query: Are
the Guggenheims in this? How much is
! Secretary Ballinger' profting by this
/ transaction2" That is a very rural and
immature manner of conducting q
newspaper prosecution. And in the END
it reacts to the condemnation of the pa
pers lending themselves to it.
There is a certain grade of humanity
which likes to believe that every prom
inent man is a rascal. That sort willing
Iy accepts the first Islander, however i'm
probable. And the only grade of hu-
mainly that is lower is that which orig
mates and circulates the falsehoods.

ton, under the direction of DR.. Pfoutz,
would be fitting and proper-and emil
nently acceptable. Very surely some
larger provision for a women's share in
the entertainment of President Taft
than is now intended, would be both
fair and acceptable. And there should
be tie largest possible use of the Utah
National Guard in receiving, escorting
and attending the nations chief execu-
tive.
New York doesn't feel any more deep
ly a loving regard for the president than
does Utah. Let us in every way prove
our claim to at least an equal appre-
citation.

WHEN THE BODY
POISONS ITSELF
Every Sufferer from Stomach
Trouble Should Know
These Facts.

Like the other organs the stomach
calls upon the blood for strength and
nOurishment to sustain it in its daily
work. If tho blood is impure the stom.
ach receives a supply loaded with poi,
sons, or toxins" as they are called
Thus the body poisOns itself, a process
known by physicians as autO-lntoxlca-
ton, or self-pOisOning.
Oxygen is the element in nature that
will render these pOisOns harmless anC
transform them chemically so that they
may be cast out by the ordinary pro
Cesses of the body. DR. Williams Pink
Pills enable the blood to absorb in large
quantities the oxygen that is in the air
we breathe sNd in this way they combat
the poisons in the blood and enable it to
restore the digestive organs to health
and strength. The best proof is q cure
like that of Mrs. John Knuth, of r. f.

THE LESSON OF JOHN wRIeHToN

If Brigham City's celebration OF
Peach day had been productive of moth
ing more than the mention of old John
Wrighton, it would have been well
worth while.
The man has been. up TO his sixtieth
year, in every sense of the word a
working man. He had no advantages,
no snaps" and no pull" He paid for
everything in the world which he re
ceived. He didn't even get big wages.
His earning period was passed in the
time when big wages were unknown.
But he didn't waste anything. That
is the word that should be remembered.
He absolutely made profitable use of all
he had-his time. his strength, his
brain. He didn't have any more time
than others had-or have. He didn't
begin to have as much strength as
thousands of others. for he is not a big
man. And it would not offend him TO
say that he had no phenomenal intel
IectuaI strength. He was just an aver
| age man.
But he got well OFF, because He
DIDN'T WASTE ANYTHING. Neither
his property, his strength, nor his OPP
portunities. And now he has his re-
ward. Since he attained the age Of SO
he has not worked at hard labor. He
helped organize the Brigham First Ma
tional bank, and is still one Of its di-
rectors. It is safe to declare he knows
what is being done with the banks
money. He is one of the directors who
direct He has a good home, and al
so is taking easy the world in which he
prospered because he deserved to pros
/ per.
! Not a man on earth who works for a
living but has at least as good a chance
at fortune as John WrightOn had. There
! is the lesson for the race to learn.
Don't waste anything!

THE ADREPUBLcAN SALT LAKE CITY, UTAH. friday SEPT H. 1909

children Of the whole United States
are to be told Of the Salt Lake High
school cadets, and their part in the
memorable reception to Admiral Evans
at San Francisco. Here is the para
graph which will appear in more than
a million school books, and which will
become a part of the fixed data in the
minds of growing Young America:
Next appeared a battalion of two
hundred and fifty High school boys
Many wondered why they were there,
but they were the special guard of
honor from the High school of salt
Lake City. They were sent as a spe-
cial mark of respect to the great adj
miral, because Utah had given young
Evans TO the navy How proud those
boys were, and how they marched
From Salt Lake schools they had come
to do honor to the admiral, and it was
at the personal request of Evans him
self that they were given this post OF
honor in the line. No wonder they
held their heads so high!
That is a good thing It is a credit
able advertisement. 1t helps people OF
other states to get a good opinion OF
Utah. States which send such COM
panies on such an errand must be
places of education, of loyalty, and OF
/ high purpose.
That publication, secure in the schoO
books of a nation, is part of what tht
people paid for last summer when they
raised the money required to send the
cadets to san Francisco. And we don'1
think any man who gave will say today
he regrets II.

PULASKI GRAND
 JURY REPORTS

Little Rock. Jan. 2o.-Special.- 20. A remarkable report was filed yes terday by the grand jury of Pulas- Xii county as it adjourned finally. The jury put in 32 full days, ex- amined five hundred witnesses, of which Fl appeared voluntarily be- fore the jury, and returned 90 in- dictments and 50 discharges. With the final report 39 true bills were returned and three dismissals. The report is an exhaustive one and deals with all the existing condi- tions. It calls the attention to the Little Rock and Argenta officers of a number of indictments returned for gaming and states that it ap- pears as if an effort is being made 10 return to open gambling houses. As for concealed weapons, the jury says the custom of carrying them has become so common as to en- danger life and limb, and the Pu- laski county representatives in the legislature are asked to see that a bill is introduced adding a jail sen tence to all fines for carrying con- cealed so as to stop the wholesale carrying of them if possible.
 The jury makes the customary recommendation that an addition be made to the Pulaski county court house, and also the county jail remodeled and enlarged so that the prisoners may be separated in- to classes. The county hospital is praised and the levying court asked to make more liberal allow ance for its maintenance. The prosecuting attorney is asked to make an effort to collect the short age in accounts of the "A town ship constables reported short some time ago by the commissioners of accounts. The prosecuting attor- ney is also asked to have a deputy at all justice court trials i'll felonies so the material witnesses only will be sent to the grand jury.

NOACTION ON STATE CAPITOL
Nothing Expected to be Done Until Legis lature Discharges Caldwell & Drake.

Little Rock, Jan. 2o.-Special.- No steps have yet been taken to- ward referring the state capitol matter to a commission consisting of Chief Justice J. M. Hill of the supreme court and Federal Judges Jacob Trieber of Little Rock and John H. Rogers of Fort Smith, and it will have to come from the leg islature before anything is done. Until measure is passed dismiss ing Caldwell & Drake as the capi- tol contractors and providing for a settlement with the firm, nothing can be done.
 Judge Trieber stated yesterday afternoon that he had never been requested to serve on such a com mission, and the section i'll the in- augural address of Governor Don aghey was merely a suggestion to the legislature, and he could not tell what action he would take un- til after the legislature acted and extended him an invitation to sit upon the commission. The con- sent of Caldwell & Drake to abide by such decision would also have to be secured before the commits sioners proposed could be asked to serve.

Alleged Disturbers Acquitted.

The trial of a case which has caused more comment, perhaps, than any on the docket, was con- pleted this morning, when, upon the failure of the jury to agree, Judge Lankford directed that the charge of disturbing public worship against Ewing Woolly, Herbert Blair and George Alymine be dis missed. The court had previously directed that the same charge against three prominent young la dies be dismissed, after the testi- mony was in.
 The evidence was to the effect that, during the progress of pray CT meeting at Blackfork camphouse in Mathews township, on the fourth Sunday ill June, 1908, which was led by Henry Reed, Arthur Glover was giving in his experience. Dur ing the course of his remarks, he testified that he looked around and saw Herbert Blair smiling. He admonished the young man and the incident caused several others in the house also to smile. There was no evidence to the effect that anyone of the defendants was bois- terous, but three prosecuting wit nesses testified that they were dis turbed in their worship by the smiles of the defendants.
 The jury, broken panel of 10, was out eight hours without being able to agree, and reported this morning that they stood nine to one for acquittal, when Judge Lankford directed a verdict of not guilty.
 It is said that the attempted pros- ecution of the defendants, especial ly the young ladies involved in the case, has caused a great deal of dissension in the neighborhood where the alleged disturbance oc- cured, and that there has been much adverse criticism against the parties who secured the issuance of the indictment.
 The cases of Harry Snow and wife and w. P, Houston, who un- der a separate indictment were charged with the same offense at the same time, was referred by the court to the justice of the peace of Mathews township. Judge Lank- ford stated that the time of the court ought not to be occupied

 "We, the grand jury empaneled for the January term, 1909, having finished our labors, submit the following report:
 "We have diligently inquired into all matters coming before us. We have examined Io6 witnesses and returned 2I true bills.
 "We have examined the records of the county officers and so far as we were able to ascertain are cor rectly kept.
 We have examined the reports of the township officers and find that all have filed their reports as required by law, except two jus tices of the peace.
 "We have visited the county poor farm and find it in very good condition. We would suggest, however, that porch be built on the north side of the main build ing, which would add greatly to the comfort of the inmates.
 We visited the county jail and found it in a safe and sanitary con- dition.
 we recommend that the coun- ty court have built on the court house grounds a closet for the use of ladies only while attending court.
 We thank the court and states attorney and the county officials for their prompt and courteous as- sistance during our session.
