The ChiId as an hssct.

There is undoubtedly very grave problem connected v'th the birth rate. The church in past t'mes furnished a religious motive for .rge families. and this tended to counteract the natural tendency of the birth rate to decline from economic causes as the period of Infancy came 10 be prolonged in an advancing civilization, says writer in the Springfield (Mass.) Republican. If the religious motive be destroyed, the economic forces making for fewer children must enjoy freer scope, and as the cost of living rises and the financial burden of rearing and edu- eating children through long series of years becomes heavier for the aver axe parent to bear the scare over race suicide is likely to be the more pro nounced. Making the child, however, once more pecuniary asset of the parents at tender age would be suI. cidal to civilization itself.

PUBLIC FUNDS HELP PoLYGAMy

That the public-Gentile as we'll as
Mormon citizens-contribute to the
support of new polygamy and new
polygamists is shown in the case of Ell
der Heber Bennion.
AS heretofore stated in The Tribune,
Elder Bennion married in polygamy a
young woman named Emma Jane Web
ster; that he consummated this unlaw.
full union between eight and nine years
ago. Miss Webster (whom VIC cannot
call Mrs. Bennion because Of the fact
that there has been no legal ceremony
which would entitle her to be known by
that namc) is teaching at one of the
public schools in this county, as we are
informed. Her salary, of course, comes
out of the pockets of Iawabiding tax
payers Of all religious denominations
This is merely mentioned as a compar-
atively minor injustice thrust upon the
public through the practice of polyg-
amy; but it is al injustice neverthe-
less and helps in the total of wrong
that is inflicted upon the community.

oRcHARpIsTs' CONVENTION

We see that the orchardists Of thi
state arc to hold a convention in Sal
Lake City on Tuesday and "Wednesday
doubt be an important one, because
Utah is we'll adapted in climates anC
soils to the raising of the best fruits
from those of the temperate zones tc
those Of the scmi-torrid regions. Ir
southern Utah the same tropical fruits
can be raised to advantage as in south
crn California. The difference with re
spcct to these "Dixe' fruits now is
The high cost and delay in getting
them to market. If there were good
railroad facilities in the Utah .'Dixie'
country, the fruits in that region would
easily rival those of southern Califor-
MIA.
In the State at large we have climates
and soils adapted to the raising of small
fruits of all kinds, including grapes,
| and the larger fruits. including apples,
peaches, pears, apricots, nectarines,
cherries. plums, etc, in the utmost per-
foction.
For a great many years the fruit in
tercsts of Utah were much neglected
There was little skill or adaptation of
trees to soil. either as between the diff
ferent species Of fruits, or as between
the different varieties of the same fruit.
There has been an immense improve
ment in this respect within the past
few years. Still, much remains TO do;
but conditions are being studied, va
rietles of trees are being investigated
and there is genuine effort TO adapt
climate and species, and variety TO the
climate and locations, and the qualities
of the soil.
All this must necessarily work for
good. and for the permanent advantage
Of the State. 1t is naturally expected
that these conventions of orchard men
will result in much practical instruc-
ton; the fruit raiscrs talk over what
they have done. what they expect to do,
and what is the best fruit, in species
and variety. for the different localities
which they represent, These talks, and
the sizing up of results by practical
men from the different localities, must
necessarily lead to the best possible re.
suits in fruit growing.
The Tribune gladly welcomes the
fruit growers to Salt Lake City for
their annual convention. 1t is confident
that they will derive much good from
the discussion and intercourse that will
be had in the coming meeting. And
we expect that as these conventions are
held from year to year, and the results
Of the information obtained thereat are
put into effect, Utah will take its proper
place as one of the great fruit-growing |
regions of the world, supplying the best
and highest quality of fruits and OBJ
tanning the highest prices therefor.

THAT LOAN OF TENTS.

Senator Hepburn of Idaho played 2
lone hand in the Senate on Monday in
his protest against the loan of the Gov
ernment tents for the reunion of Con
federate soldiers at Mobile, His senti
ments were patriotic, his motives were
good, and yet he could not find one fel-
low Senator to stand with him, And
so, the tents are to be put to the use
of the Confederate veterans, who will
wear their Confederate uniforms IN
them. and fly the Confederate flag over
this public property. 4 matter so alb
horrent TO Senator Hepburn. We may
add the the situation is abhorrcnt to a
great many other people OF tho country,
who will back Senator Hepburn siren
uously in his position.
After all, however, il may be a ques-
tion whether it is any kindness to lend
these tents to the rebel soldiers We
had an experience of that sort of thing
here the past summer and are rather
deferred from considering such loan an
pose in the least TO criticise either the
motives or the acts of any one CON
nected with the loan of tents and cots
to the Grand Army Encampment here
last July. Everything was done in the
utmost good faith, and with the single
desire 10 provide needed accommo-
dation to the thousands Of veterans who
were reported as sure to come to Salt
Lake City, We cite the case, not in
the least by way Of criticism, or one
word of objection TO what was done,
but only to illustrate the point.
In all eases of this kind, the resolu
tion or act authorizing the Secretary of
War TO make the loan, the words are
included that the Government shall not
be at any expense in connection with
the loan, Those borrowing pay the
freight, tho expense of handling
and must sign bond to make
good all loss or damage. When the
final roundup comes, those who
get this kind of loan are generally
sorry they made it, and see that they
could have done quite rs well, if not
better, in providing other accommoda-
tions. So, what might appear to be
trespass on the kindness of the Gov
ernment in lending these tents, and per-
haps cots, also may turn out TO be
very plague to those who borrow. There
is even the possibility of second act
of Congress remitting any claim. that
the Government may have against the
borrowers.
While, therefore, the loan of these
tents TO the Confederate veterans is
now considered a kindness on the part
Of the Government, it is quite likely,
within the range of elusive possibility.
that the Confederates themselves, after
1T is all over, will consider it more it
the light of 9n afhiction
