NOT PLEASED WITH PRoHIBI-
TON.

Oklahoma has tried prohibition, and
is not pleased with the results secured.
The people of FL Reno have adopted
series Of resolutions, one of which is
as follows:
That in place of the limited number
of saloons formerly operated in Okla
homa, from which the public fund re-
ceiyed a large revenue, there are now
thousands of illegal joints and bootleg
gers. on roofs, in cellars, back rooms,
stables and in all sorts of secreted
places liquors are sold and consumed.
The state, counties and towns have no
revenue therefrom and must burden the
citizens with higher taxes. Thousands
Of men, respecting every other law, do
not hesitate to violate the prohibition
law, being an Ubiquitous imposition
upon their personal rights.
Without doubt they have pointed out
one of the chiefest objections to the
practical workings of a prohibition law.
At the beginning there is a rather gen.
eral acquiescence in the dictum that
prohibition is desirable. Few men and
still fewer women care to say they are
opposed to prohibition. 1t seems to inn
ply that they are in favor of drunken
ness, and all the evils that comes from
the traffic in ardent spirits.
So that elections usually demonstrate
majority declaration in favor Of the
"drys"
Then comes the real test Of the COM
munity's position. And never yet has
the public sustained in its after-electiOn
attitude the vigorous and effective
prosecution of offenders. Never have
they stood firmly and unitedly for the
enforcement of the law.
That is the weakness of the position
And, after it has been tried through q
score of states, through decade after
decade, it is fair to assume that the peo-
pie do not want prohibition if it mean:
actual enforcement of the law.
What Oklahoma has learned at 81
great cost is precisely what has beer
learned in Kansas, in Maine, in Iowa
and in countless communities every
| where

HOW DID 1T ALL HAPPEN2

Well, for the most part, cur candi- |
dates didn't get votes enough.
Not enough people took the same view
of the situation that was taken by The |
Herald Republican.
More people in Salt Lake wanted |
Bransford for mayor than wanted any
other man; and he is going to be the
mayor for the next two years-f he
doesn't resign.
Facts that seem perfectly convincing
to us didn't seem so convincing to the
rest Of the voters. and they exercised
their inalienable right 20 vote as they
believed to be right. This is America,
and we are bound to say that the vote
was a deliberate, intelligent expression
OF the people Otherwise, our govern
ment is a mistake.
We didn't think the Wallace people
should have insisted on their course. 1t
seemed better to have united all the op-
position to the American ticket, and
the Republican leaders went far to Sc
cure that result-without being at all
successful.
Bat, on the other hand, we cordially
concede that the Wallace people had as
good a right TO their view of the case
as we had to ours. They did as they
pleased, as they believed right, as they
thought best. And that is the only rule
which one can &c by.
We shall confidently expect the re-es-
~,
continuance of graft. And we shall be
very glad to be disappointed in either
of these anticipations. We shall be
overjoyed to find that neither is real
lied. Also, we shall very cordially give
credit for every good thing that the
victors may accomplish.
The election is over The Herald-Re-
publican made the fight it believed JUS
titled by the facts, and in that fight
employed the weapons that seemed to
be warranted. Now that the people
have spoken, there is a perfect assent
by every good citizen. Americans
whether they belong to the party with
that name, or not, speak by their cleo
lions. The people of Salt Lake have
spoken. The men elected are employees
of the whole people. The whole people
owe them cordial support in their
every work of public service, IL their
every enterprise of public good.
Triumphant gentlemen may heave as
many rocks as they please. 1t is their
right, if their tastes run in that diree-
ton. But they will not alter the pur-
pose of The Herald Republican to work
for Salt Lake, for the state of Utah
for the United States of America and
for the Republican party of nation
day of the coming years.

eREA1 Is NEW ORLEANS.

George Havercamp, one of the sue
eessful mining men of Provo, has long
held to the belief that New Orleans will
within the century become the greatest
city on the American continent. And
no man who carefully follows the trav-
els of President Taft and his friends.
will feel inclined to look lightly at the
prophecy.
OF course, as matters now stand, there
is no measure CT the possibilities. This
big journey of the notables has proved,
first OF al things. the total inadequacy
of the river TO do the work demanded
by the geographical position of the Gulf
city. Boats. however, fed with fuel,
cannot make schedule time. They can
not be depended on as can railroad
trains.
But they can be depended on to carry
grain, and ore and every product of the
nation, and deliver it safely and cheaply
at tidewater. cit is down stream all
the way from the Canada border" ex-
claims the enthusiastic Mr.. Haver-
camp. And there is a good deal in
that manner of stating the case.
Without doubt the opening Of the
Panama canal is going 70 make New
Orleans much more important as port
than it has ever been in the past. And
whatever of surplus may come from the
factories and the fields Of the north fol
the markets Of the Asiatio world. will
most cheaply pass through New Or
leans.
Increase of freights will bring an in
crease of railroad accommodation. And

SO WITH A COMMUNITY.

John Ruskin once said: "a nation
writes its history in its arts" That is
true of a community, too.
Utah is a little different from the rest
Of the world. 1t is probably the only
commonwealth which escapes the con-
demnation of being lone of the great
alike" Fortunately, the history of the
pioneers here was unique. Their ma
lures were more or less shaped and
nodded by that history. Their sons and
daughters still iceland it is to be
hoped they always will-the influence of
the natures which were strong enough
to venture the conquest of the desert a
thousand miles from the nearest human
help, and that at time when the hardi-
est of other pioneers were content to
take up" the first piece of land adjoin-
ing civilization on the west.
Into this state, so constituted, has
come an expression Of art. Because of
the intensive type of life enforced be-
cause of conditions, the Utah people de-
veloped music and acting, and painting
and handicraft. Some of the most beau
tiful pieces of furniture to be found in
the country are the work of those men
who had abundance of time. plenty of
material, and an ideal toward which
they were willing to work whether they
made days wages or not.
Out of the influence Of the early days,
to both Mormon and non-Mormon. has
come that tendency to expression in the
arts which deserves and receives the
communication of the critical.
There can be no higher purpose in
the state than to encourage that ten
dency. Utah has sent splendid exem-
pla7s of native talent into the wide
world. Let the number be increased.
Let every effort to develop genius be
encouraged. And let this state con-
tinue-as it has so well begun-to write
its history in its arts

MAYBE THE GOVERNMENT WILL

Eastern Utah people begin to hope
that the United States government may
be induced to help in the improvement
of the Grand and the Green rivers, so
that trade between Green River and
Moab may be carried by boat.
It is practically the only way in
which the Moab region can be developed
until such time as the growth of popu-
lation there shall warrant the invest
ment in railroads.
Prominent men of the district have
consulted experts, and are assured that
a boat would now do a profitable BUSH
ness; and that If a traffic of that sort
were started, so that the government
could be persuaded of the sincerity of
the people, and the good promise of re-
suits, aid from washington could be
depended on.
The current in both streams is rapid
and disturbed with rocks. And yet an
old river man who has spent many
years on the lower Colorado, declares
the problems are by no means insur-
mountable, and he urges the people OF
| Green River to secure a boat, the cost
of which will be about twenty thousand
| dollars, and begin the regular business
which shall demonstrate the utility OF
the investment, and the need Of ma
tional aid.
If that can be done, one of the rich
est regions in all the west will BE-
opened. Any time the land about Moat
can be put into communication with
the world, it will blossom with orchard:
and farms-a veritable paradise Of
| prosperity.

n Yesterdays Stock Market, Follow
ina Day Of Irregular and Reac-
tionary Movements.

New York Aug 23-From the ir-
regular and reactionary course of
prices today it is very clear that the
stock market is still in highly sensi
tive state and dependent largely on
the developments OF the next few
days Foremost among these is the
health of e. H. Hartman concerning
which there were many conflicting ru-
mors. The traffic officials of the lead
ing railway systems in the middle west
are virtually unanimous in the declar-
atoms that business is steadily mount
ing higher, in some instances beyond
all exceptions, with an especially
large movement in merchandise. As
an indication of the increased tonnage,
it was reported today that the rail
roads centering in Chicago have IL
mind an increase of 2 cents per hun

The operations in the stock market
began active and strong, and vigorous
selling of Hartman issues wiped on.
all advances and by noon prices Of
Union and Southern Pacific were un-

while strong pressure was being eX-
erted upon Reading and United States
Steel Coincident with the decline in
the Hartman issues was the state
ment that no changes would occur in
the dividends of Uunion and Southern
Pacific at the directors meeting to-
morrow. In sharp contrast to other
railway shares was the strength of the
Gould issues, Texas and Pacific, Wa
bash and Denver and Rio Grande, all
displaying iirmness.
Prices rallied somewhat before the

The Boys Party.

One evening little fellow accus-
tened to about all the Injuries boy

the establishment OF the mother and
other members of the family when

and they were all the little rag-tags

Why, mamma, the boys ! play with
don't like parties. and they have
everything they want. but these boys
never have anything al all" II Is
but one OF the countless things that
this child has done with the object
Of making others happy. He is happy
himself, not the best boy by any
means, but one of those little fellows
who shows one Of the loveliest traits
Of childhood. How often do parents
draw children aside and whisper eau
tiously, Don't play with Mamie. she
is not nice" Not nicer" echoes the
innocents, why. yes. indeed, she is
nice!" Then an explanation follows
about "our social position etc oh,
what miserable thing TO put into the
heads of innocent children, 9 despic-
able trait so unworthy woman. !:

creates heartbroken feeling in lit
tie children who cannot comprehend
and, II ever they do, II leaves the
everlasting scar. Do not be one
among the many TO make a little
child. no difference who he is, feel
that he is an object OF your scorn. or
something OF such low origin or par
entage that you or your children
must not come In contact with him.
There are occasions when the draw
ing line is an absolute necessity, but
know just how to DO II, and never IN
a manner to show your intention.
White lies are permissible when it
comes to saving the tender heart OF a
little child, but there is no necessity
for white lies. You can go through
life and have kind word for every
child you meet. and IL YOU do not
gather the "rag-tags and bobtaiis' in
at your parties. al least remember
