with flaming red headlines the an
nouncement goes out that, through the
able, efficient, unequaled and unsur-

the assistant district attorney in the
trial OF minor criminal cause growing
out OF the issues which have already
been dismissed IN the major action.
Who Is Responsible2
Ofttlmes such failures arc wholly to
be laid at the hands of the Especial
assistant attorney, but they arc more
far-reaching. The system is bad and the
departments at Washington should find
a remedy.
Where the local bar IS so short in all
that goes to supply a needed want for
the right kind Of attorneys. one can
understand the necessity for importing
conceding 1T TO be true that the Gus.
tom of appointing the regular United
States district attorneys has become so
lax that only second or third-rate men
are chosen.
Looking at the cost side of the oues,
ton alone, how much better it would
have been, in these late eases, for IN
stance, had the government appointed a
man who could cope with any and all
and who would be fully equipped for
any emergency
Why Not Give U. S. Service?
The district attorney for Utah draws
goodly salary. He has so much time
on his hands that he devotes most of
has energies to conducting a private
practice and manipulating a partisan
party journal and serving on honorary
staff positions of the governor. His Of.
fetal time is largely consumed in travel
ostenslbly to consult with his superiors
at distant points, while the plain. ev
ery-day work is left TO half-paid a
sistant.

What Mr.. Patten saws about July
wheat, however, is anything but &C.
ceptable to many experienced traders.
They point to the present domestic
visible supply, which at present is re-
ported by Bradstreet S as six million
bushels in excess of the amount in
sight at this time in 1905. But prin-
cipally they insist that the new crop
will be on sale in Chicago in abun-
dance.
In discussing his operations today,
Mr.. Patten referred frankly tc himself
as speculator as well as grain mer-
chant, and incidentally admitted that
he is long of cotton.

nearly five millions Of dollars. No
wonder that the Utah Fuel company
was glad to keep its mouth shut. To
the company and its attorneys is where
the bouquets should be thrown. There
is where the brains were,
A review of this case which caused
the litigation, and which has resulted
in such a great victory for the Utah
Fuel company, should be made in con
nection with this ending of a famous
case.
This Is History.
Several years ago, when the Salina
branch Of the Rio Grapde Western was
being built, when within distance of
little more than fifteen miles from
Salina. construction suddenly stopped.
Various reasons were given, but the
fact remained that the building Of the
road was stopped
At that time the laws and the regu-
lations governing coal lands were that
no coal lands within fifteen miles of
railroad could be purchased from the
government under regular entry for less
than 500 per acre. If the lands were
fifteen miles or more distant from a
railroad the price was $40 per acre.
There were 1440 acres Of coal land
near Salina that was taken up at that
time, the price paid being S14 400, or
$40 per acre. This land became the al
legged property of the Utah Fuel COM
pany. and this land now reverts back
10 the government under the terms of
the compromise. 1t is for coal said to
have been taken from this land that
the $4,000 was paid by the fuel com.
pany. As TO the quantity of CONNER
| cial coal taken from this property, ex-
perts differ Some say $40, Some say
! "A larQer amount.
When the suits i'll question. and which

ment. were begun, experts of Uncle Sam
started in to show that all land in
Utah from Soldier Summit TO the Utah
Colorado line, and from Vernal to the
San Raphael Swell. were coal lands
In that this involved vast area oi
agricultural and grazing land, these cx
perts were compelled to abandon Their
position.
Two Factions in Fight.
Originally there were two faction
after the prospective lands betweel
Castle Gate and Sunnyside, and. if mem
ory is not at fault, n present Unite'
States official was with one of thos
factions. Much bitterness was mani
fest upon the part of both sides, AN,

Preserving and Parking of Telegraph Hill
Should Receive Decisive Affirmative Vote
By REV. TERENCE cARAHER

One of the proposed projects that will
be submitted to the voters of this city
is the preserving and parking of Tele-
graph hill. The tax payers and citizens
will be asked to decide if the city is
to be bonded for the comparatively
small sum of s25O,OO0 for the acquisi-
tion of lands on Telegraph hill to be
used as a public park. After careful
thought and calm reflection am borne
to the conclusion that proposition No. 4,
relative to Telegraph hill, should re-
ceiye a decisive vote.
The hill should be preserved because
of the shelter and protection it affords
the shipping in our harbor and a large
section of our city. Without the hill
the various craft in our bay, and our
streets and buildings would be exposed
TO violent storms and would suffer
severely
The Franciscan friars who founded
this city wished to make it the largest
Of their settlements, as IS evidenced by
their giving il the name of their foun-
der, St. Francis. Now, they established
the city upon this identical site not
only by reason of its harbor, but also
by reason of it's hills. and had there
been no Telegraph hill it is question
able IL there would have been San
Francisco. For want of our natural
and physical advantages there is no
site from Vancouver island to the 18TH
mus of Panama where another San
