SENATOR SUTHERLAND WAS

once more the New York sun sounds
d note of warning. 1t is afraid the
United States Senate viii destroy S
usefulness by the enactment Of laws
which the supreme court may declare
unconstitutional; and prints the follow
ing colloquy from the proceedings of
the Senate touching a summons for
senators 10 appear before the courts
and give evidence:
But suppose" interjected Senator
Tillm6n, that after these senators
plead privilege the court decides against
them"
Then" said Senator Sutherland. 4
would contest the matter and take il TO
the supreme court of the United States. "
And suppose the court turned you
DOWN."
Then 1 would advise the Senate to
yield"
And then the Senate would disap-
pear" exclaimed Mr.. Tillman.
THE Senate disappears very often"
was the reply of Senator Sutherland.
"Gften a law passed by this body is
declared unconstitutional by the courts
and the Senate yields"
Then the Sun, stin amiably shining,
breaches the following instructive ser
mon:
This is, of course, the sad truth Ma
jestic as is our distinguished upper
chamber, especially when it is standing
upon the technical aspects of its dig
nifty, the laws Whereto it contributes
its share Os legislative fiat are subject
TO review and defeat by the cOnstitu-
Of rad
and applied by that coordinate branch
of our national government. the federal
judiciary. Let US hope that the timely
TetOTt of the senator from Utah viii
not prove unavailing in bringing home
to his cOlleagueS-eVen let us saw to
the distinguished junior senator from
our own state-the advisability Of look
ing ahead to this ruthless veto power
of the constitution.
One always gets an echo from Wall
street in the warnings and sermons Of
the sun. But, aside from that irrele-
vance, there can be no doubt Senator
Sutherland is right. The Senate, as a
part Of the legislative branch Of the
United States government, must do
what it believes to be right, and that
without regard to what other men may
think in the matter. The Herald-Re-
publican believes-and so do a very
large majority Of the citizens of the re-
pubhc-that the Senate did right twenty
years ago in assisting in the enactment
of an income tax law. But the supreme
court overthrow that wise and just bit
of legislation.
1t is all very well for senators to try
and keep within the limits of the con-
stitution-and that they certainly do.
But that will be a dark day when the
legislative branch of government shall
be required to abstain from duty be-
cause of fear that five out of nine gen.
tlemen in the supreme court room may
take a different view of the funda-
mental law.
The Senate isn't any too near the peo-
pie; but it is nearer than is the supreme
court.

FARMERS ARE NOW FREE TO
SELL.

Since the Thursday night action of
the city council the farmers within
reach of Salt Lake are at liberty to
bring their products to the doors of
househoIdeTs, and make sale of their
products without license, let or hin
drance. And the ultimate producer will
have a good chance to see if the market
mems trust has had anything to do
with the high cost of living.
The farmers seem to have an Oppor-
tunity-which, if they handle it wisely,
will be an opportunity for the families
of the city as we'll. There is a market
at the doors of ten thousand homes for
the products of the garden and the
dairy. If cleanliness and good measure
and reliability of delivery shall be OBJ
served by them, the people will be
profted, and a better price for products
must be assured.
1t will be a little more difficult for
health officers to watch them than
would be the case with a smaller num-
Der of dealers. But if they violate the
sound rules that reason prescribes, the
privilege now granted them will of
necessity be taken away.
But we do not believe they will vio-
late those rules. Until such time as the
city shall have a public market, prop
eTly conducted, this concession to the
farmers-which is really a concession to
the demand of householders here in
town-wiu doubtless be fostered with
all proper and necessary care.

SWEET NINETEEN HUNDRED

The sugar factory at Lehi ran till the
middle Of February before it was able
to reduce to sugar the bountiful yield
Of beets marketed by the farmers. And
the farmers OF Utah county alone re-
ceived more than six hundred thousand
dollars i'm cash for their beets 1t has
been rather a sweet year for producer
and manufacturer, too.
Much the same condition is reported
from all the other sugar factories; and
there is ground for the belief that a
number of new mills will be established
in Utah within the present season, and
in time to handle the crop Of nineteen
ten.
Some Of the Objectionable details Of
contracts have been eliminated. Man
ufacturer and farmer have come to un-
derstand each other better There is
less strife between them since each IS
increasingly confident Of fair treatment
from the other. The farmers have
learned many useful and profitable
things about beet culture. The business
becomes permanent in its character, and
land that has been idle before is drafted
into the service Of the beet raiser. The
ability TO promptly realize cash for the
product is an argument for the beet
And within a few years Utah will find
all her soils in use-for this and other
marketable foodstuffs that command
profitable return.

ADVERTISING A CONTINENT"

Canada is getting the benefit of a very
valuable advertisement all over the
world. Canadians seem to believe they
have the greatest and best country I'M
der the sun, and they are telling that
to everyone who will listen. And they
are spending their money to make more
people listen every day.
1t is a bit of object lesson for Utah.
Of course, there is no better land and
no richer mines in Canada than in
Utah. Of course, the summer seasons
here are longer, and milder, and life is
easier and better rewarded. OF course,
the markets are more convenient, and
the railroads already have penetrated
much Of the possible farm region. But
our people have not yet launched their
advertising boom. And it is altogether
due
If any Canadian should tell the world
that the people Of Manitoba, or Sas-
katchewan, or Alberta or British Co
lumbia are outlaws and slaves, he
would be run out of the country. Those
people probably have as many faults
as are found In any population. But
the men who have made Canada see the
good, and tell about it, And that very
fact diminishes the bad; discourages it,
corrects and abolishes 1t.
Also, those Canadians are spending
money to inform the world of the ad-
vantages of life in their provinces. And
that is the second lesson for Utah to
learn. First permit no Utah man to
say word against anything pertaining
to Utah; and second, make men every
where to know how desirable is resi-
dence and how profitable is business

Compensation.

Twas in the wilds of Africa,
One bright warm autumn day;
The birds and beasts were chattering
The people were away.
At length upon a grassy knoll
Two men were seen to stand,
And one displayed his cleaning teeth
And waved his strong right hand.
Said he: at may seem lonely here,
Among the beasts and birds;
But one can bear the loneliness
When paid so much for words.
And then it is far pleasanter
These elephants to shoot,
Than tits to pat the G. o. P.
Including Mr.. SmoOt."
The stranger paused a little while
And then prepared to part.
Then said the one who had not talked:
MY friend, you're very smart"
The other showed his wondrous teeth
And, as he softly laughed,
Said: when you reach your home again
Give my regards to Taft
w. f. Graham.

Old men take strychnine for years,
and then they die. And the doctor or
anyone else who happens to have an
interest in the estate, is arrested on a
charge of poisoning. About the only
escape from the logic of the situation
is to take old men addicted TO the
strychnine habit, and drive them into
the woods while they are able to walk,
and let them perish at their leisure.

Trees That Explode.

All lightning-blasted trees explode
as overcharged boilers do. The flame
of the lightning does not burn them
up, nor does the electric flash split
them like an axe. They simply eX-
plode, overcharged, as may be a boiler
with steam.
The lightning is conducted into
the damp interstices of the trunk and
into the hollows under the bark. Its
tremendous heat at once turns all the
moisture in those cramped spaces into
steam. This steam in its immediate
explosion blows the tree asunder.-

The Secret Of Meredith.

The secret Of George Meredith's
mystery may perhaps lie in the fact
that never before has a writer Of such
eminence partaken at n time in so
full a measure of the critical and the
creative faculty. Shakespeare knew
how to write a play, Aristotle knew
how n ought to be written; we shall
rarely find in the study of any period
al author pre-eminent both as critic
and creator. That word which is able
to make flesh OF abstract material
comes seldom from the mouth Of the
scientist, however fine and true be
his knowledge, potent his voice Dr.
sturdy his faith. What a monstrosity
indeed was that Frankenstein, man
created by the hand Of man to scare
the public of a century ago! Nor
could ever a workman, however Gu
rious his art, make of any dry bones
a Zagloba. This it is then which
marks George Meredith as unique
among artists: that being first a critic
Of man, he is in a secondary degree,
and yet In a degree extraordinary, a
creator of man.-Atlantic Monthly.

dian has invented a ladder that an
swers both purposes and when folded
(for it does fold) takes up less room
than even the old style small ladder.
This invention consists of a ladder
made in three sections, one on the
other and hinged together on n side
and in the back. On the other side
are pins to keep it in place when it is
extended to it's full length. Either in
its extended or its short form this
ladder is a safe one, but it has no
back support and must be leaned
against the wall. After the top sec
ton has been bent down on n side
it folds back, and when the second
section is down the three fold togeth-
er like a ~three-part screen. When
the ladder is not in use it can be
slowed away behind a door or in any
corner, az it does not take up as
much room as a chair.-Boston Post.

CHAPTER x.
"LagrimaS!"

Miss Lydia Burke is by DC mean
an ~unfavorable sample outwardly Of
the Woman Of the Future. She has
a tolerable sandy complexion, toler-
able sandy hair, teeth almost over
white and even, and a pair of very
wideawake and small gray eyes. Her
walk is why; her figure like a bit Of
watch-spring; her age-the hither-
ward side Of forty. What in this
bright, energetic-looking lady should
have introduced the sad elements of
hatred and disbelief into Belinda's
young life? What has caused the
i~nalienable discrepancies between
them?
Mainly, I imagine, this unchange-
able law; that reality and shams will
no more mix together than oil and
water.
Nothing can be grander than the
meeting between 6elinda's stepmam-
ma and her preceptress. Miss Burke
has held religiously to the letter of
the bargain sealed between them in
London, has kept the girl convenient
ly out of Rosie's way during the past
three years. Rosie has held to hers;
each quarterly payment for maternal
watchfulness and superior intellectual
culture has been paid in advance
without a question. They begin to
talk platitudes. Rose thinks Belinda
grown, though a little sunburnt;
Miss Burke trusts dear Mrs. O'Shea
has overcome the fatigues of travel
ing? A very weary journey from
London to st. Jean de LUZ.

travelling alone with ones maid"

smaller Croprieties, and virtuously
conscious that she only met" Roger
Temple in Paris. Bordeaux and else
where. "One does feel so miserably
helpless without a gentleman"

Plan to Protect the Osprey.

The British Government has issued
a proclamation prohibiting the cap
ture or destruction of Goura pigeons
and ospreys for the next five years in
Papua. No permit or license will in
future be issued except to duly &C.
credited agents of some recognized
geological or other scientific society.
This rule will materially curtail the
future supply from Papua for COM
mercial purposes Of that pretty arti-
Gle of headgear, the osprey feather,
so highly valued by women in all
countries.

Certainly they are not, Captain
Temple. There is sun-tan, for in
stance, Van Dyck brown; the fine
natural color Of gamins, beggars,
gypsies, and all the great unwashed
of nature. My color"
"Unwashed! You quite pain me
with these expressions, Belinda says
Rose. But you must try not to des
pair about your complexion, dear.
Spencer shall make you some of her
milk Of roses. She got the receipt
from Lady Harriet, and they say the
effect is extraordinary; that sun-tan,
and even freckles, can be cured by 1t.
For my part" encouragingly, I have
no great faith in cosmetics. You are
fair or you are swarthy by constitu-
ton"
Her last fatal fancy about Colonel
Drewe has melted poor Rosie into
amiability. So amiable, so elated is
her frame of mind, that she has
been rash enough to whisper her lit
tie budget of hopes and fears and
projects into the girls unsympathetic
ear. AN old-ah, if she must con-
fess truly, a dear friend coming after
her to st. Jean de Luz. Gould any
thing be imagined more difficult than
tie part she would have to play? And
Roger so jealous already-that is his
weak point, you know, poor fellow,
jealousy! And will Belinda find out
where Spencer can buy n Of those
becoming Spanish combs and a man
tilla?" For Rosie's imagination al
ways flies to the millinery depart
ment-the stage properties Of any
coming event-as the imagination
Of a more highly endowed woman
might fly to what she would say, or
feel, or dissemble.
1t is long before the visit draws
to an end; and Captain Temple, doub-
ly guarded by Rosie and Miss Burke,
does not exchange another syllable
with Belinda. At last, in the middle
of one of Miss Burke's finest pero-
rations on woman's destiny, the girl
%brusquely takes her departure from
the room; and accompanying her to
the top of the hotel stairs, Roger
gets a word or two with her alone.
You are not going to play paume
today" For she has a racket ball
and schistera, as usual, in her hand.
Under this broiling sun! Belinda,
I will not allow it."
Twill you not indeed, Captain
Temple? Why not, pray?"
81 do not choose you to spoil your
complexion, for one thing"
my. unwashed complexion that is
to be improved by Lady ~Harriet's
milk of roses! Isn't it fine to hear
Rosie and Miss Burke talk! What
advantages I have had, sir, in being
guided by those two extremes of FEM
mime intelligence"
Promise me you will not play
paume, Belinda, to-day, or any other
day."
She hesitates and looks down; a
culver on her lips, a tell-tale blush
shining beneath the clear olive Of
her cheeks.
"Lagrimas!" he whispers softly.
"Will you promise?"
And then she raises her eyes. They
promise-unconsciously they promise
a world too much to Roger Temple.

Tho Power of the Word.

I knew a man once whose wife be"
came intensely interested il a revival
meeting rs a seeker of salvation. He
was a skeptic and a scoffer, and when
he found her constantly reading the
Bible searching for some promise
that would comfort her, he said:
"Bosh ! I will give you enough OF
that, 1 will read the Bible to you
every day, till you r sick of it," and
he began. Day by day when he came
home he read the Bible-chapter
after chapter, having his wife sit and
listen. At last one day, when he had
finished the third chapter of John, he
said:

GAS far as I am concerned, there

Roger coldly. You and Colonel

He is annoyed, lowered for her

and on about poor Stanley's infatu-

I'VE are certain, I suppose, that
it is Colonel Drewe, Rosie? There is
no one else among your numerous
victims whom the cap would ft?"
Oh, yes, on this point Rosie is con-
fdent. If it had not been for the
mustache it might have been the
Rev. Rowland Lascelles, whom she
met last year at Malvern, the most
elegant, the most spiritual minded
of men. But no, with a conscious
little sigh over her Malvern remin-
iscences, the mustache settles it.
Colonel Drewe it must be and no
other. And what makes it the
more remarkable, Roger" adds Rose,

fate-I dreamed of poor Major
O'Shea only last night! 1t seemed
some one in America had told him
of my engagement-in dreams, alas,
in dreams only, our dead are re-
stored to us!-and he had brought
me over the most lovely turquoise
and pearl set a a wedding present
!(Major O'Shea always used to say
how pearls became me), and was ex-
. ceedingly pleased at the marriage, and
said he wished you joy from his
heart. Was it not remarkable?
Most remarkable and most IN
pleasant" answers Roger, getting an
noyed in earnest. For Gods sake,
Rose, dream no more dreams! Rivals
of flesh and blood, powerful colonies
and elegant persons, 1 can stand, not

But happily, at this very delicate
j%uncture, the door opens, and the
entrance of Belinda and Miss Burke
puts an end to the love scene.
