THE MAYORS PLAN.

In view OF the fact that the accu-
racy of the report OF the superintend-
ent of the waterworks department sub
mitted some time ago has been ques-
toned Mayor Brewer last night sent
il communication to the city council
recommending that a special commit
tee be appointed to audit the accounts
of the department. The mayor sug-
gests that perhaps It might be well II
this committee be composed Of the
cashiers of the five banks In ogden
The mayor Is anxious that no partisan
bias shall enter into the work OF the
committee or its conclusions be in
1uenced by political bias.
In this Mayor Brewer Is right. Pol
tiles and business ought to be kept as
widely apart as the two oceans. II Is
right too, that the mayor ask that
this committee be appointed. II is
right that the statement of Superin-
tendent Kircher Of the waterworkS de-
partment be audited in order that the
foundation OF certain rumors started
in obscure quarters may be proved or
disproved. II the statement is wrong.
the people have right to know It. II
It is correct, they have a right TO know
1t also. so that the tongue that gave
birth to the rumor may be forever ei-
fenced.
The Examiner believes that Mayor
Brewer has taken the right step. He
has faith In the integrity of the bank
experts OF ogden and in their ability
to audit the accounts and make a
clear and accurate return of the facts
and figures. If there is need for lin.
yestlgation" Mayor Brewer courts that
investigation. He invites it because
he believes the people have a right
to know how their public utility is be-
ing run, and. furthermore. he courts
It that a stop may be put to malicious
statements that have been given a
small degree of currency in this city.

THERE is NO PROFIT
IN STEALING.

The young fellow who goes into
thievery as a business will meet with
the disappointing experience that
thieving returns small gains, and the
profit obtained is at great cost In ef-

lowing taken from an eastern paper,

Walter Glib, another man who has
in charge the interests OF big firm,
SAYS;
IF newspapers published Influenced
and biased news and other reports
they would cease to interest the gen
eral public and would consequently
be useless as Advertising mediums.
The Herald met few who were
Influenced by personal pique In OBJ

paper. One Of these Is Nathan Straus

many who believe tine paSteurizing OF

Ing,
This did not affect the complacency
of the Herald, as is indicated by this
teTse little remark:
IF Mr.. Straus secs AT TO cut OFF
his firms nose 10 spite his face. that,
OF course. IS his funeral"
Unquestionably Macy 6 Co. arc the
losers b. Mr.. Straus action. for il has
lost a valuable advertising medium
and the Herald continues on Its career
of prosperity having the knowledge
that 1t is Independent in this respect.
at least
The man who advertiscs in a news
paper does so hoping to receive results
therefrom. The newspaper adopts its
line of policy without regard to the
wishes Of any particular advertiser
and follows that policy as best II can.

fusion If a newspaper tried to run It's
editorial page in conformity with the
wishes of every advertiser. Democrat.

(MornIng Examiner }

II is sometimes true, but happily the
conditions are rapidly improving. that
advertisers are seized with the no.
ton that the newspaper in which they
advertise ought to adopt an editorial
and news policy precisely in accord
with their own Views. If the news
paper does not publish things which
meet with their approval they feel
that they have a righteous kick com
Ing. That is so in regard TO some of
the smaller advertisers, who believe
that, when they insert an advertise
ment In the paper they Immediately
take first mortgage on all that be-
longs TO the paper,
The large adYertiSer-the man who
adyerlises in order TO induce people

-advertises as a business proposition.
and he does not bother his head about
the editorial policy Of the paper In
which his advertising is placed, so
long as that policy has the virtue of
morality and sanity.
The New York Herald has made
careful canvass OF some of It's heaviest
advertisers, with a view to securing
their opinions as TO whether or not
they consider it good business to at
sions. Among others. the Herald
quotes Samuel j. Bloomingdalc, head
