THE MODEST SCOT.
London Chronicle.)

Love of country is so fine a virtue
that II seems difficult TO carry it to
excess. A resident of a small village
in the north Of Scotland paid a bust
ness visit to London the other day.
He happened TO call on a merchant who
was unknown to him, but had once
made a stay in his native place. In
the course Of conversation the visitor
made use of an expression that led the
other to exclaim:
Surely, you come from Glen Ne
Luskie?"
The assertion. however, was denied.
Presently, to the merchants surprise,
another Glen McLuskie expression was
heard.
my dear Mr.. MacTavish, 1 feel con-
WINGED that you are a Glen McLuskie
man after all" insisted the merchant.
'Weel," returned the other, I'm no
deny it any longer"
"Then why didn't you say so at
first?" demanded the Englishman.
''Weel," was the calm response, Il
dinna like to boast of it in London"

IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION.

Kenneth Kerr of the Salt Lake Route
is back from the southern towns, where
he established automobile lines to con-
meet the isolated regions with the rail-
road. The service from Beaver to the
station has been decidedly successful.
And autos will in time be run from Mo-
dena to st. George-and possibly TO
Kanab.
That is a step in the right direction.
It is the preparation for the railroad.
The journey from isolated towns TO the
railroad can be made in one-ifth the
time by the new method that was re-
duired for the old. The comfort is
greater. The cost will be less. There
will be better roads. There will be an
increased travel. Men of means will see
the proved profit assured them in a
railroad.
And the railroad will be built.
Five hundred dollars would make a
perfectly good road from Modena, on
the Salt Lake Route, to Kanab, by way
of st. Georgia. distance of $50 miles.
In nine months of every year that road
would be easily passable. For s.>
months it would be wholly good. And
the first step in linking those towns to
the rest of the state by bands of steel
will have been taken.
Mr.. Kerr's work will be recognized as
of service to the people of all Utah.

here. Some of them have been recog-
nized, and deserve the recognition.
There are pictures on the walls of Utah
homes, the paintings of men and women
of this state, and bearing the inescap-
able testimony of genius. And it is not
Of that class that The Herald-Repub-
lican makes complaint.
But 1t may be sincerely hoped by
every friend of the state that at no flu
ture exhibition, by the state fair or any
other organization, shall so totally I'M
worthy an art collection be displayed
as the typical expression of the painters
of Utah.

NO CANDY SHOPS.
Fair Booths to Be Placed Where They
Don't Interfere.

Seattle, WASH, May 26.-There will
be no selling booths on Oregon's
grounds at the Alaska YukonP Pacific
exposition, or on any of the land which
has been allotted to states and coun-
ties, unless the exhibitors give their
permission.
This was the agreement made today
between a committee from the Com
missioners' association and the exec
utive committee of the fair. State
and county commissioners will give
permission for booths which will not
mar the beauty of the landscape and
which will be as unobtrusive as posi-
BILE.
In the case of Oregon, President w.
H. Wehrung said that there would be
no booths on the grounds allotted to his
state.
The fair management asserts that
the full number of lis booths will be
erected on the grounds, but states that
it will secure permission from the ex-
hibitcrs before placing them near any
of the special buildings.

Thursday, May 27.

Washington, May 27.-By the de-
cisive vote of so to 33 the senate de-
cided today to postpone until June 10
further consideration of the income tax
in connection with the tariff. Consid-
Grafton of the sugar schedule was con-
tinued, but after two amendments were
voted upon the senate switched to a
discussion of the possibility of getting
a vote on the Bailey income tax amend
ment. Bailey argued forcibly for a
vote, but did not succeed in prevailing
upon Aldrich to concede vote in ad-
vance or the tariff schedule.
The two amendments to the sugar
schedule voted upon were those elm
mating the Dutch standard test and
lowering the duty on refined sugar
from 1.9 cents per pound to $1.S2 p
cents per pound. Both were defeated,
the former by vote of SO to AZ and
the latter by vote of 32 to So. On
the first vote IL Republicans voted
with the Democrats for the amend
ment, but on the second only seven Re-
publicans broke ranks.

Saturday, May %.

Washington, May 29.-During two
hours before adjournment today, the
senate made more real progress in the
adoption of tariff schedules previously
passed over than has been usual during
an entire day.
Despite protests voiced by Beveridge
and Root, the duty on barley was in
creased from 25 cents bushel, as pro-
posed by the House, to 30 cents, as
recommended by the committee on
finance.
The tax on hops was advanced. The
committee on finance had formerly ad-
vanced it to Is cents. Today the COM
mittee brought in an additional amend
ment, making the rate 20 cents. The
duty on potatoes was made 45 cents
per bushel, instead of 25 cents, and
oysters in the shell were advanced
from three fourths of cent pound to
rs per cent. The increase in the rate
on oysters was made on motion of
Piles, who has an industry in bivalves
to protect against Canadian competi-
tion. Eels or smelt, fresh or frozen,
are taxed cent per pound.

Washington, May 25.-The United
States Supreme court yesterday declin-
ed to grant a rehearing in the Oregon
Washington boundary case involving
the location of the state line near the
mouth of the Columbia river. Shortly
after the court decided this question in
favor of Oregon's contention, ex-Sen-
ator Turner, of Washington, filed
motion for re-hearing on behalf of
his state, and with that motion he filed
a brief setting forth the alleged new
grounds upon which the case should be
re-opened.
The court, however, holds that the
question involved is so simple, and the
facts so apparent, that there is no
ground whatever for the contention of
Washington, and it therefore declines
to give further attention to the contro-
versy. There is no possible further
appeal from yesterdays action, there
fore Oregon's claim to Sand island and
other disputed fishing grounds in the
lower Columbia is finally established.
Judge Brewer advised that the two
states should follow the plan of the
Southern states bordering on the Mis-
sissippi river and ask congress to ap-
point a commission to determine all
the niceties of the question.
Meanwhile the courts decision in
favor of Oregon will control and will
have the effect of giving to that state
Jurisdiction over the disputed territory.

DETECTIVES GIVE TESTIMONY
Calhoun's and Burns Men Are Busy
Tracing Grimes to Other Party.

Cahoun's and Burns Men Are Busy
Tracing Crimes to Other Party.
San Francisco, May 26.-Detectives
employed by the prosecution and de-
tectives employed by the defense were
the only witnesses called during yes
terday's session of the trial of Patrick
Calhoun, president of the United Rail-
ways. Luther Brown, who admits that
he directed the activity of several as
sistants working in the interests of the
defense, was finally interrogated as to
his relations with men who have con-
fessed to completely in the theft of pa
pers from the Office of w. J. Burns,
agent of the prosecution, and refused
to testify on the ground that his state
ment might tend to incriminate him.
Norman Melrose, an attache of the
United Railroads detective bureau, said
that he had delivered to w. M. Abbott,
jointly indicted with Calhoun, reports
procured by men under his direction.
Nicholas Korngold declared he had
followed District Attorney w. H.
Langdon with two detectives and John
Claudianes to the home of James L.
Gallagher, which had been wrecked by
an explosion of dynamite. He declared
that Abbott had commended him for
his work, and had instructed him to as
certain, of possible, what had transpir-
ed in the grand jury room in Oakland
when Claudianes was indicted in con-
nection with the dynamiting The wit
ness said that he had been directed by
Abbott to establish relations with the
family of Felix Paudeveris, who was
accused of completely in the affair but
has never been apprehended.

More Japs Join Strike.

Honolulu, May 25.-The Japanese
laborers of the Eva and Waialua plan
tations struck today, pending a reply
of the sugar planters to their demands
for increased pay. On these planta-
tions the japanese have hitherto held
out against the determination of their
fellow countrymen to strike. The JAP
anese Merchants association resolved
today to strive to prevent the spref d
of strikes and to cultivate better un-
derstanding between capital and labor
by maintaining an unbiased positi' n
between the two.

RICH GOLD STRIKE.
One Shot Yields Nearly $4,000 of
Almost Pure Ore in Hatfuls.

Almost Pure Ore in Hatfuls.
Downieville, CAL, May 26.-Between
$75, 200 and $10O, 900 in almost pure
gold was loosened by blast in the Ell
dorado tunnel at Allegheny, this coun-
ty, last evening. Hatfuls of gold with
particles of quartz attached were picked
from the floor of the tunnel. This find
promises to eclipse even the Sixteen
to One and the Tightener, both near
neighbors. H. L. Johnson, owner of
the Tightener, bonded the Eldorado two
weeks ago for $25, The Morning
Glory mine, nearby, owned by Rohrig
brothers, has just broken into rock of
immense value, big slabs sprinkled and
scanned with gold being exhibited. The
owners refuse to say what their strike
broke, but it is said to be $40, 900.
An old fashioned rush is on to Allie
gheny from all directions, and men of
every vocation and of every age are
f1ocking into the district to stake
claims.
H. L. Stark, consulting engineer for
George Wingfeld, the we'll known mil
lionaire mining man of Goldfield, was
there some time ago trying to buy and
consolidate the Tightener, Sixteenth
One, Eldorado, Morning Glory and
other rich properties, but Mr.. Wing
fields wealth proved inadequate. Ex-
citement is running high.

thousand acres of land in Oregon and
25, 0C0 acres of land in California, with
drawn for the Pitt river reclamation
project, have been restored to entry by

Wednesday, Nav %.

Washington, May 26.-For more
than seven hours today the senate dis
cussed sugar as that subject is in
volved in the pending tariff dill. Be-
ginning with an effort by McEnery, the
Louisiana Democrat Protectionist,
there were four set speeches. Three
supported the sugar schedule as report
ed from the committee on finance,
while the fourth was plea for mate
rial reductions.
In completing his speech of yester-
day, McEnery made an earnest plea for
stiff protection, not only because of the
necessity for such policy in the in
terest of the revenue, but because, he
declared, such course would render
the United States independent of other
countries. He asserted that there had
been a change of sentiment in the
South on the subject of protection.
Bristow followed. While McEnery,
a Democrat, had spoken for high and
protective rate on sugar, the Kansas
senator, Republican, advocated a re-
duction.
Burrows, of Michigan, and Smoot,
of Utah. both members of the finance
committee, also spoke in SUPP ort of the
committees action. Smoot presented
a carefully prepared analysis of the
situation, and Burrows appealed more
particularly to popular sentiment.
Beveridge introduced an amendment,
the purpose of which is to prohibit the
tobacco manufacturers or dealers from
using the coupon or premium system to
stimulate sales.

Director North Resigns.

Washington, May 29.-It was stated
officially at the White House today that
Census Director North had resigned
and that E. Dana Durand, deputy COM
missioner of corporations, had been
named to succeed him. The announce
ment of the resignation of North was
made at the close of a conference be-
tween President Taft and Secretary of
Commerce and Labor Charles Nagel.
1t is understood Nagel demanded the
resignation as result of the investi-
cation recently ordered by the presi-
dent. 1t was explained that the resig-
nation was presented because of the
existence of certain conditions that ap-
peared likely to continue and which
would probably operate to make North s
administration unsuccessful.
