GOING PRETTY STRONG.

When Senator Aldrch of Rhode Island made
the assertion that, if he had the direction of the
expenditures of the government, he could save the
people $300,0O0,00O year, it was accepted as the
conservative statement of an old and experienced
statesman. If this be true, or even approximately
true it is evident that the only reason our govern
ment lives is because the behind it far
in excess of its needs 1t is evident too that there
is lack of efficiency in that government, even with
the limitations placed upon its general powers,
circumscrbed as it is by the principle of local self
government.
Yet with this evidence of ineffciency, demands
are made for broadening of those powers, of the
Inauguration of new principles looking to central
izaticn of the functions of government, and new,
strange and fantastic things proposed for that
GENITAL government to undertake. Instead of de-
manding an efficient, honest and business-like adj
minisration of the affairs of the general govern
ment there is growing demand for broadening
of the scope of power exercised at Washington,
which even is inefficient as to cost the ma
ton $300000,000 year in wasted expenditures.
One thing is certain If the agitation for CEN
tr1ization is successful, there must be inevitably
chance in the nature of our political institutions
When man or an institution has more than can
be handled economically, it would be foolish-yes
worse than foolish-to attempt to take on new du-
ties. Until the Washington government can make
a better showing than a waste of $3O0000OOO
year, it would be well to insist on a better admin
istration of its present affairs than to add to an
already overburdened and inefficient institution.
The Intermountain Catholic. (Salt Lake City [Utah] ;) 1899-1920, 1910-09-10

woman and child in the country with one, and still
have some left over; divided among the heads of
families it would give each in the neghborhood of
$35
Then we have the statement of Senator Aldrich
of Rhode Island that the waste at Washington IS
no less than S3OOOOO,00O year. That waste would
give every man, woman and child in the country a
So pair of shoes and half dozen loaves of bread
to boot Three dollars would supply many man
with a weeks living expenses. This waste divided
among the heads of families in America would give
each of them something more than $16-enough to
outfit an ordinary man in Salt Lake from head to
foot, and still leave him enough to buy a good
meal Or if he was not in need of clothes he could
lay in a winters supply of coal.
If 1000 men at the beginning of the Christian
era had organized a society and saved 81 day
each for 300 days in the year, their combined saw
ngs at the end of this year of Lord 1910 would
amount to $576,00O,0OO-not quite enough to meet
the expenses of the United States government for
six months. Under the same conditions 1000 men
in 1000 years would save enough to pay the an
nual waste of the government.
Certainly the waste of the government has be-
come load as heavy as a milestone; certainly a
part of the high cost of living which Congress has
been so kind as to investigate can be found IN the
billion-doar appropriations, the amounts of which
are collected with interest from the long-suering
consumer

LIGHTWEIGHTS.
consumer.

A long time ago we knew man who had
horse treadmill used to circular saw to saw
lumber His horse was an 800-pound animal, too
light to keep the trcadmill going when the load on
the saw became heavy. But he continued to use
his 80O-pound horse till the animal wore himself
out from his exertions. The knew he should
have horse weighing at least 1920 pounds, but
such an animal cost more than he was willing to
pay. So he brought another 800-pound animal
and wore him out His business kept on steadily
increasing, and it not long till his second horse
was unfit for the work of the treadmin. By the
time he wore out his third horse, he realized that
he must either have a horse that could stand up
under the strain adopt other kind OF
power. He reasoned with himself that horses die,
he put his treadmill in the back yard and bought
an engine, steam engine, and boiler. He bought
a small engine, because larger one cost too much
money, and he ran his numbering plant with about
as much satisfaction as lie had with his treadmill.
The engine would stick, it would get out of order.
1t wouldn't deliver the goods. Like the 8OO-pound
horses, the engine was too light for the work i'm
posed upon it. Then he woke up. He abandoned
his dinky engine, put it and the boiler in his back
yard by the side of his treadmil He got reckless,
spent his money for engine and boiler of ade-
quate power, got big band saws and began to make
money.
This sawmill man is not unusual in the world.
In all walks of life are businesses running with
lightweight men in heavyweight jobs. The light
weights prove inadequate for their positions, and
they are superseded by other Gghtweights. But if
the business can stand the pressure long enough,
the owners finally wake up to the fact that it is
economy to get adequate power, no matter what it
costs. If the business does not justify adequate
power it is better abandoned There are lots of
$40 week men, but only few $40 a day men.
And their capacities are as different as are the
SOO-pound horse in the treadmill and the forty
horsepower boiler and engine.

INDIANA LOSES OUT.

There is much weeping and discomfort down in
Indiana for be it known that the state has lost the
dishwashing championship to a Clark street pol
Usher of china Clark street being in Chicago, Ill.
The contest was arranged with all the formalities
which such momentous occasion demanded with
referee timekeeper and seconds for the two con-
testants At the call of time the two hundred dirty
dishes that had been piled up before each of the
two contestants were seized in gobs of twenty and
twenty-five, and put through such a course of clean
ing as they had never had before. In thirteen min
had completed polishing his two hundred dishes
While the Indiana contestant finished her two hun
dred in fifteen minutes.
Rapid dishwashing seems to be lost art, for
every housewife whose duties include that plebean
task utters complaints at the time consumed. But
the champion puts through two hundred dishes,
washes them, messages them and piles them up, in
100 seconds or very small fraction less than four
seconds to the dish. Certainly this is an example
of high training in ancient and honorable call
ing, marvel of efficiency beside which the records
of the typewriters and adding machine experts can
not hold a candle.
But let Indiana take heart. If the great state
has lost the dshwashing championship she still
tans the record for production of best sellers and
it may be that somewhere in the wilds of Brown
county or on the quiet banks of the Wabash an
unheard-of genius has gone into training to wrest
from the Chicago champion the honors which In
DIANA as the center of population and the seat of
literary and poetical genius, so richly deserves.

CITY AND FARM.

Some figures the population of cities have
been given out by the census bureau, and in every
case the figures show large increase in popula-
ton Many cities have doubled their population in
the decade between 1900 and 1910, and few cities
have trebled and quadrupled in the number of their
Inhabitants. When the complete returns of the
census are available no doubt they will show an
increase in the rural population too but certainly
not IN proportion with that of the cities The
sons for this are obvious. City fe with its attrac
tions its opportunities, its variety and its "lfe'
make an appeal to rural jewellers, who forsake the
humdrum existence of the country for the excite
ment of the cities. But this movement is not alto
gether traceable to these reasons. There is larger
reason in that the cities have demanded men with
the self-reliance developed by life on the farm,
supplemented by training in special lines, and this
demand has been most insistent. Then, too, the
young man who has left the farm has carried with
him the knowledge that if the city did not come
up to his expectations he could return the land
land was cheap and living assured.
And the result has been a tremendous growth
of cities all over the country The reason so many
fam products are so high in price, we are told, is
that there are not enough farmers to produce a
supply equal TO the demand. IL JnaC be TRUE, tnen
should our efforts be bent toward making more
farmers, or making the same number of farmers
more capable in their lines Certainly the time will
come when the demand of the cities for the prod
ucts of the farm will be far greater than it is now
and of necessity prices will go higher. No COM
biuaton in restraint of trade is necessary to bring
about such result. 1t is as inevitable as taxes.
While the farmer has been the burden bearer
of civilization from time immemorial, the distri-
button of taxes has been such to throw an unjust

SABBATH DAY.

Editor Intermountain Catholic: | read i'll Mon
days Herald Republican Father Ryan's explana-
ton of the Sabbath which, as | understand, was
originally Saturday. Why change from Saturday
to Sunday? CYRUS LOVEDALE
Park City, September 6, 1910
Sunday, the first of the week, consecrated to
the practice of the Christian religion dates back
to the apostolic age The Jewish Christians in the
early church, after the example of Christ con-
tinued to keep holy the ancent-or legal Sabbath
but afterwards, the first day of the week. or Sun
day, was kept holy. In the Acts of the Apostles
Xxx, Z, we read "And upon the first day of the
week, when we were gathered together to break
bread, Paul discoursed with them Writing to
the Corinthians xvi, 3 st. Paul says: Upon the
first day of the week let each one of you lay by
him in store, ETC." ST. John the Divine, in Reve-
lation1-10, terms Sunday ''the Lords day"
The apostles were gathered together on Sun
day, the Octave of the Resurrection, when Christ
appeared to them, and allowed Thomas to put his
hand into his side John XXX 26. They were again
assembled in the upper chamber in Jerusalem
a Sunday when the Holy Ghost descended on them.
Acts II, 1. We have then the example of the Apos-
ties for making the change. Justin Martyr at the
commencement of the second century, in his Apol-
ogy to Antonius Plus, refers to the religious OBJ
servance of the Sunday, and gives the reasons why
it was substituted for the Sabbath To yield to the
strong prejudices of Jewish converts in favor of
the Sabbath, both Saturday and Sunday were OBJ
served as festivals. In the Apostolic Constitutions
vii, SO, we read "Iet the Sabbath and the Lords
be observed as festivals the former, in memory of
the Creation; the latter, in memory of the Resur-
recton"

PROHIBITIONS FAILURE.

The steady advance of the prohibition move
ment during the last decade is at once one of the
most remarkable manifestations of popular antag-
onism to the low-down saloon and the activity of
the saloon i'll politics and also one of the most re-
markable manifestations of inconsistency the coun-
try has ever seen. Ten years ago there were only
three states with statewide prohibition statutes
Maine, Kansas and North Dakota. At that time
there were very few states with local option stat
utes Since 1890 six states have been added to the
prohibition rol-North Carolina, Georgia, Ala
bama Mississippi, Tennessee and Oklahoma-mak
ing nine states in all. With these many other
states have placed local option acts in operation,
until now it is the proud boast of the prohibition
lists that more than 100000 people in America
are living in dry" territory
This is indeed a good showing for the advo-
Gates of prohibiton their zeal in the cause is to
be commended their success worthy of emulation.
They have accomplished their purpose.
Figures issued by the bureau of statistics at
Washington for the same period-from 1900 to
191O-however, indicate wherein the vast spread
of dry" territory has not done more than cut off
the revenue of those states, counties and munich
palities which excluded the saloons from their
boundaries. Beer consumption in the ten-year
period has increased more than twenty million
barrels, or 51.2 per cent Consumption of distilled
spirits has increased 44.9 per cent.
Assuming that the population will approximate
930OO,OO0. figure higher than any estimates until
the last few weeks that figure will represent an
increase of less than % per cent. A normal n
crease in consumption of beer and spirituous
liquors would be in proportion to the increase in
population, if there no addition to the terri
tory from which the sale was excluded. The fact
that beer consumption has increased more than 80
per cent and spirituous liquors more than A per
cent, while during the same period the number of
people living in "wet territory has decreased near
ly 100000, furnishes a striking answer to the
query, Does prohibition prohibit? 1t does not.
Tie enormous increase in the consumption of
malt and spirituous liquors coming in the decade
in which "dry" territory spread over half of the
country furnishes in itself the best example of the
failure of the movement. For it is evident that
in much of the "dry" territory the law is evaded
and its provisions nulliied In the newer states
to adopt the exclusion of liquors the law is as
openly violated as ever it was in Maine or Kansas.
The abuses in the liquor business have not been re-
moved, but rather aggravated, by the enactment of
prohibition laws, for law not enforced is much
worse than no law at ALL
