Travellers Tales


Two members Of the Shuberts COM
pany. which put on The Witching
Hour at the Fargo operahouse last
evening, were talking in cafe aTter
the show and the following was over
heard:
Il was singing pretty song once,
said one. 1T was called Row, Brotn-
ers, Row, the Stream Runs Fast, ana
when / was halfway through the aud
fence were bending backwards ana
forwards, and pulling for all they
were worth"
That's nothing" said the other,
why, at a concert sang The Last
Post, and the whole house began 70
| lick imaginary postage stamps, and
rushed out to the first letter box SO
as to be sure not to miss the last col
llection!"
A little girl Of years who, with
| her mother and 10-year old brother,
Beverly, is spending the summer IN
a North Dakota town through which
small creek takes its way, came to
| her mother in tears the other after
noon.
Mamma" she cried, while the tefTs
streamed down her cheeks, Beverly
and that little Owen boy next door
have got the kitten and they are
throwing it in the creek and just as
soon as it swims out they throw 1t
back again"
/ And little Pauline wept afresh at
the thought The indignant mother
| hurried down to the stream in the
wake of Pauline, who led her to the
bank where small Beverly and his
companion had just flung the miser-
able kitten out into the water again.
Beverly" she exclaimed. TIN
ashamed of you, torturing poor
little kitten like that, Your little sis
tier, Pauline, has kind heart, and she
came with tears in her eyes and told
me about your shameful conduct. Why
do you not try to be kind hearted, as
she is?"
'Tt wasn't any kind heartedness
that made Pauline go and tell you, =
returned Beverly, as he fished out
the dripping kitten. ut was because
Owen and were taking turns at
throwing it in and we wouldn't give
Pauline chance to- throw it in her
lself!"
PA" asked little Tommy yesterday
AFTERNOON after he came home from
school, what is an equinox"
And the Pa got off this:
why, crit is-aheml For good
mess sake. Tommy, don't you know
anything about mythology, at all? Ar
equinox was a tabled animal, half
horse, half-cow. Its name is derived
from the words equine and OK II

TAFT AND ROOSEVELT.


The following editorial is from The
Minneapolis Journal:
AS former President Roosevelt had
come in his Osawaton1ie speech to a
statement Of agreement with President
Taft on the things needful to be DONE
SO in his Sioux Falls speech he comes
to an agreement with the president as
to the means Of accomplishing some
of them.
The president In his Winona speech
said he had never known a subject on
which there was such a lack of first
hand information as the tariff. Mr..
Roosevelt in his Sioux Falls address
says Of the failure to get a satisfac-
tory tariff by the present methods:
ut has been conclusively shown that
the method of tariff making by con-
gress, which has now obtained for so
many years, cannot, from the very ma
ture of the case, bring really satisfac-
tory results"
President Taft saw the inability of
congress to do much better than 1t had
done, and therefore he signed the
Payne tariff bill as the best that could
be had under the circumstances. But
he Immediately went to work to pro-
duce set of circumstances that would
gives us better tariff law. Those cir
cumstances were the elimination from
the schedules of dickers between con-
gressmen, and the suggestion Of rates
by a tariff commission after full in
vestigation both at home and abroad
| This position Mr.. Roosevelt fully
endorses. This position the country
also fully endorses. 1t is heartily SICK
of the trading stamp tariff. 1t wants
one made for the whole people, pro-
tective tariff, not a monopoly tariff
The two most influential men in the
republican party standing for the
same thing, ought to be able to bring
IL about. The next session of con-
gress ought to take another step for
ward in the matter of the commission
1t is now a commission under a cover
Congress ought to bring it out into the
open.

THE BONDS ARE VOTED.

The taxpayers of this city who voted
Yesterday on the school bond PROPOSE
tion. voted with substantial unanimitN
in favor of authorizing the bond issue.
Extraordinary efforts were made by
friends of that board to get support
for tho bonds The very light vote
poled is therefore all The more sur
prising,
We Judge that the cause of this light
vote was that the taxpayers did not
want to put themselves in opposition
to the high school, whose need is so
evident. and neither did they want TO
vote to cntrust that much money 10
hands which they had no particular
reason TO consider competent or clean.
so far as the control of the board has
been in evidence hitherto.
And now that the bonds are voted,
and there is an awakened sentiment IN
the public mind against the selfish
grating methods that have so long
prevailed in the board, together with
pronounced tendency to cover up and
minimize the lawles5 and selfish things
that have been done, there must be Il
lively scouting OF the doings of the
board in the selections of and prices
paid for sites, and in the letting of the
contracts for the proposed school build
inps. The Tribune supported the propo-
sitlon TO authorize the bonds, but only
after il was made reasonably clear that
rake.offs and other forms OF graft could
be headed off. And in order to effect
this highly desirable result, the utmost
vigilance is necessary, supported by an
awakened public conscience which Will
endure no wrong doing.

FOR THE PUBLIC HEALTH.

The report of the number of deaths
in Utah during the month Of Dcccm.
bcr, made by Dr. r. B. Beatty, socre-
tary of The State. Board of Health,
shows the mortality to number three
hundred and forty-thrce. of which mum
ber one hundred and ffty-ivo occurred
in Salt Lake City. This is rather n
light death rate for the State, rcckoned
on basis Of 346,s73 population.
From the same source come explicit
instructions for tho prevention of the
spread of scarlet fever, inculcahng the
utmost caution. strict quarantine, $50
lation. and disinfcction. Great care
symptoms of the disease, and TO en-
ploy expert treatment from the hrst.
Attention is called 10 the danger of
infection lii scarlet fever, diphthena,
and other similar diseases in the use
of the common drinking cups in schools
and other places. The Importance OF
fighting against bad air conditions is
urged. and the alarming death rate
from pneumonia at this time is pro
pounced to be due almost entirely to the
neglect of providing pure air in the
home.
All this instruction is excellent. and
DR.. Beaity's efforts are both practical
and Jealous. In his recent lecture be
fore the Municipal League in Logan,
the doctor dwelt much on the same

Prof. John W Ritchie IS "Prmer of

primer is fine book on these diseases
and is certainly one of the most thor
ough, straightforward presentations

on the danger of germs from infection
and contagiou, and is cmlnently prac
tical in showing Just what the trouble
is all along the line, especially in dis

Importance of guarding against infec

mends il unreservedly. and from the
examination we have been able to make
we are convinced of the soundness OF
his recommendation.
The Importance of preserving th'
public health cannot be oyerestimated
and DR.. Beatty efforts in this direc
tion not only deserve emphatic public
recognition, but deserve that the pub
lie should follow his advice and give
effect TO il in every practical way.

BUSINESS AND TRADE.

The week Just past has given Salt
Lake City two striking events. We had
first the Tri-State Good Roads Conven-
ton, which was largely attended by rep
resentative men from Idaho, Utah and
Wyoming The talk was mostly Of a
practical sort, with due Difference to
expertness and skill. The resolutions, to
be sure, fell rather eoldly or the con-
ventlon, but doubtless better work in
that direction will be done next time.
The main thing, the important thing,
was TO- get the good roads work started
on solid, feasible basis; and this we
think has been done. The Utah state
good roads organization is strong and
doubtless will do good work for this
State.
| The next event is something al
together unique in this section-the
aviation meet of the Frenchmen who
were so successful in making aeroplane
| flights in Los Angeles and San Fran
cisco. Their exhibition began yesterday
at the fair grounds and continues today

Of exhibiting one iota Of disrespcct to
this man, whom it believes TO be sim

him from ability to express his

DIARIES ARE IMPROVING.

IT is encouraging to see tho lncrcas'
inply good reports from the dairies that
supply this city with milk. Tho first
"scoringsD of the dairies was very
poor; the dairies graded extremely low.
But for the most part, to the credit
of the dairymen, it must be said that
the trouble was not through wlllful
neglect or desire to impose upon the
city or endanger the health of the poo
pIe through impure milk, but because
they didn t know what good scoring
and good expert dairy conditions meant.
Upon being informed. and having the
better conditions pointed out to them,
the most of them exhibited the utmost
zeal in conforming to the requirements;
and so tho second scoring showed very
decided Improvement over the first
And now we have the third scoring
reported by City Food and Dairy Com
missioner Frazier, showing still more
decided improvement over the second
scoring, of last fall. AT that time all
of the dairies were below the standard
of fifty points which is required un
der the ordinance. Now they arc all
over fifty points, and number of them
over sixty, one being even over seventy
1t is decidedly an encouraging report
the scorngs showing the dairies 10 he
now well up to good standard of ef
fectiveness in pure milk supply. Al
this is decidedly interesting and en-
couraging to the people of this city
who are entitled to congratulate Tho
inspectors as well as themselves upoI
