examined.
The most common symptoms of the
breaking out of this disease are a
cough, gradual loss of flesh and
strength. fever, night-sweats and
blood splitting, Any of these signs are
said to be suspicious. The cough is
absent I'm the early stages

one to suspect stomach trouble or

ENGINEERS RETURN FROM
MANFUYERS IN INDIANA

The members of pioneer" Co. A.,
Engineers, returned home late Satur-
day afternoon from Camp Ben Harri-
son, near indianapolis, Indiana, where
for ten days they participated in the
military maneuvers with the First
Michigan regiment and other guards
men as well as the regular army
work could be plainly seen from the
appearance of the men. The mem
bcrs of the company however, were in
good spirits and glad to get back
home.
The instruction covered almost
every phase of work which might fall
the lot of Engineers in actual war
fare. The men arrived i'm camp one
week ago Thursday and because of
the non-arrival of tents slept on the
ground the first night. Upon the Cal
umet company fell the duty of making
the camp sanitary, and grading the
streets Among the features of the
camp in which the members of the
Calumet company participated We're
the demolition work, placing and ex-
ploding mines. the construction of
pontoon bridges and hurdles over
trenches. digging eight different kinds
of trenches, and construction of barb
wire entanglements. on Friday of last
week the Engineers were detailed To
erect pontoon bridges for the RED"
army in sham battle but were
routed before the bridges were COM
pleted.
The Indianapolis star" which COW
cred the camp infinitely gave the Cal
umet company considerable credit for
the careful manner in which the pow
der was handled. Capt. Caspellc of Co
'I'' Regulars, who was assigned to
work with the members Of Co. "a"
complimented the men upon their
work throughout the whole camp
1t has practically been assured that
the members OF Co. "a" will camp
next year at Fort Leavenworth, Kan
sas, with the engineering corps Of the
regular army.

only through selection and by choice of

would neccssitatc, in reality, the forma
ton of new presiding bishopric al.
together; and inaSmuch as the present
second counselor is a son of the prcsi.
dent Of the church, it is not I'M.
reasonable to assume that he would be
the favored one. In that event. Bishop
Romncy may be inductcd into the
quorum as second counselor, There is
ono circumstance that would weigh
heavily against this sort of an ar
rangcmcnt. however; and that is tho
fact that David r. Smith has not ac-
cumulatcd any great experience in bust
ness affairs, while Orin p Miller,
present first counselor is rcputcd to be
a business man Of no mean ability. SO
that 1t Is possible that business and
financial considerations may outweigh
nepotic desires. and Mr.. Miller may go
in as presiding bishop. In that case,
David H. might he moved up 10 the
place of first counselor, with Bishor
Romney as second.
Yet there arc sometimes some sur
prises sprung by the church officials in
such matters, and the event may show
that all the gucsses of all the men and
newspapers who have ventured opinions
may have been far wide of the mark.

SENATOR ROOTS GREAT SPEECH

That is a speech of great power
which Senator Root has been making
in the u. s. Senate on the admins.
tration railroad bill, 1t is comprc-
hensive, too, emitting no point of in.
terest The law, says the Senator,
should be so framed that it Will be
possible for the railroads to obey it,
law forblds traffic agreements: but
railroads must have traffic agreements; ;
1T is impossible to operate in handling
freights from ono line to another with
out traffic agreements. And, accord
ingly, he wanted to make the neccs-
sary agreements legal; for il is better
in every way to have the railroads
conform 10 the law than force them to
violate il.
Further, Senator Root said he would
never consent 10 give to the Interstate
Commerce Commission the right to
suspend or to fix railroad rates. The
Government might properly supervise
rates, but not fix them. To establish
the latter principle, he contendcd,
would be to depart from the Ameri
can system and 90 to the European
system, with Government ownership
sure 10 follow,
1t seemed like an anachronism
for a man like Depew to break
in upon Senator Root with in
terruptions. But the garrulous, SUI
perfluous old pcddler of other
mems wit broke in with declaration
of his position. As if it mattered in
the least what his position is He is
the railroad attorney in the Senate, so
far as he has the ability or force to
be anything, 1t is reproach to the
great State of New York to have an
old imbecile such as he to represent ii
in the upper house Of Congress. Aud
it is pItiful 10 see the contrast be-
tween him and Senator Root. We
should think that the Empire State
would be glad that it will have
chance next year TO send a better man
in his place. If the legislature of New
York should next winter avail itself
of the opportunity to put IN Dcpew'
place such man as Governor Hughes,
for instance, the relief and gratifica-
ton would not be New York s alone;
they would be shared kcenly by the
people Of all the States.

SMITH AS A BUSINESS MAN,

When, at the Smoot investigation in
Washington. Joseph +. Smith was re-
quested by Mr.. Tayler to state what
was his business. Mr.. Smith replied,
" My principal business is that Of presi-
dent OF the church.
1t has been claimed for him by his
friends that since Joseph +. assumed
chief control in the Mormon church
he has shown marked ability as a busi-
ness man. But whatever success he
NAV have achieved in this direction
is not at all due to his own capabilities.
In his position as president Of the
church, which he declares TO be his
principal business. is involved q close
partnership with the Almighty. as
claimed. together with the obedient
backing and support of a great com
munity Of people, and all Of whom of

his personal gain. II is a well known
fact that before Mr.. Smith ascended
TO the Mormon throne he was "a poor
man. He was possessed Of several large
families. whose keep was altogether be-
yond him without assistance from the
church. So far as his own efforts were
concerned had his wives and children
been entirely dependent upon them,
there would have been story of pri.

mark upon polygamy, So, in order to

wonder that selfish man should be-

THE "GET ACQUAINTED TRIP.

That is a fine itinerary which the
Commercial Club has set for its ''get
acquainted round. The governors Of
the club and leading citizens Of Salt
Lake will "swing around the circle,
beginning Monday, May 10th, with a
run to Provo, with a meeting there in
the evening. Thence the run will con
tinue via the Rio Grande to Richfield,
making friendly calls on the way at
Springville. Thistle, Fairview, Mount
Pleasant, Ephraim, Manti, Gupnison,
and Salina, with a rousing meeting at
Richfield on Tuesday evening. Then
there will be a night return TO
Provo, and Wednesday morning start
for Ncphi and Lynndyl. getting to
Eureka for all evening meeting. Next
morning the swing will continue to
Stockton, Tooele, and Garfield, with a
return to this city for new start,
This new start will be for the north,
Brigham for Thursday evening meet
ing. Then the trip is to Preston, Idaho,
and a return to Logan for a Friday
evening meeting there. The week s
tour will close with visit to Ogden,
with a Saturday night meeting there,
1t reads good deal like campaign
jaunt, but there is no politics in it,
only design to get better acquainted
with our neighbors, so that every re.
lation between us and them will be
made more pleasant and cordial, to the
mutual profit and advantage of US all.
It is a right good idea, and The
Tribune trusts that every advantage
and benefit that can be hoped for from
the trip may be fully reaped.

INCREASE OF BUILDING PERMITS.

The month of March showed some
diminntion in the number and value
Of building permits, as compared with
those of the same month last year
caused, perhaps, in A degree, by the
storms that prevailed. And yet, the
month did not quite "go out like a
Roosevelt though it "camc in like "A
Taft" Tho building might have con
tinued even more active than it was
so far as the weather was concerned
The permits for the month just closed
numbered 153, carrying values of
$425.7O0, compared with EOS permits
in March, 1909, carrying values of
S529, 800.
For the three months Of 1910, com
prising the first (and doubtless the
least active in building opcrations)
quarter, the building permits carried
a value of $1,667 200, as compared
with Sl,l06,S00 in the first quarter of
1909, showing the very substantial
gain of $500, 400, or over fifty per cent.
And there is every indication that
the month VI APIn WIZ PICK up al
that was lost in March, with good
deal more.
Americanism gave to this city its
first great building impulse; and
Americauism will continue its great
service in this direction until the city

great metropolis of the whole inter
mountain region,
