PARKS AND FAIRGROUNDS.

Some of the best people in Salt Lake
have associated themselves together
with the purpose Of establishing at
least one playground for the children
who at present are not supplied with
that very important adjunct of life.
And we don't know of anything more
helpful that the best people could do.
one Of the purposes of the associa-
ton is to encourage outdoor life; another
is TO secure establishment and MAIN
tenance Of parks. Fairgrounds and rec
reation centers at convenient distances
throughout the city" And another in
the constructive class is
To construct a model recreation CEN
ter-adequately equipped for bathing,
games, sports and social meetings, suit
able for winter and summer use.
The children need these things. The
less they are able 70 pay for them, the
more they need them. The less they
get Of outdoor and heaithful exercise
and honest development, the more they
are going to cost the community in sup
port and correction and punishment a
little farther on.
Just now the association is working
solely to convince the city that these
parks and Fairgrounds are necessary
There is no sort of doubt Salt Lake viii
provide them when the demonstration
IS made.

HE WEEK Al KAYsVILLE.

Every day this week excepting Sat
urday and Sunday there Will be a school
for farmers and housekeepers at Kays-
VILE; and we have faith enough in the
people of Davis county to believe the
sessions will be very well attended.
There are two sessions in particular
that should command the presence of
the people. It is a little late to mention
in the sense of advertisement; but that
Monday address by Professor Merrill
must have been helpful 10 every one
who heard it. Then on Thursday morn
ing Professor Mclaughlin will talk
about the use and misuse of irrigation
water. And thereby hangs a good deal
of the little trouble we have in Utah.
Many people take more water than they
need for irrigating their land. 1t doesn't
do the crops any good, and it deprives
other people of a blessing which-for
the benefit of all-they ought TO have.
on Thursday afternoon Governor
Spry will attend the school, and he will
have something OF value to say 10 those
present. And the biggest thing people
can do for him. the highest honor they
can pay him, is to make general at
tendance at every session Of the school
These enterprises make for better
farming, for better housekeeping-and
for the betterment Of the race in all the
future. They very abundantly repay
every one who gives them his presence

is THE REPUBLICAN PARTY
GOING TO PiEcES2
Not i'm a thousand years


There are two kinds of people who
are giving countenance to the ques-
ton: VIII the Republican party sur
vive this attack of the insurgents? One
is the good and sincere well-wisher of
his country and his party, interested in
the work that has been done, keenly
desiring the progress of the nation to
continue, but sensible of the commo-
ton that has been produced. The other
is represented by the fly that rode on
the grindstone.
Under all the turmoil that has been
created by the men they call insur-
gents is the desire of certain strong
men to take control Of the Republican
party out of the hands that are at pres
ent directing it. They are ambitious,
and they are capable. They are no
better than other men, in spite of their
widely self-advertised catalogue of vir-
tues. But they are not bad men, and
| if they had control of the Republican
party they wouldn't destroy that or
\ ganization.
| OF course, they may defeat it for a
term or two by their insistence on be-
ing given command, with the alterna-
tive of surrendering national control
But IL they could get Cannon and Aid
rich to give them the reins, and then
be sure that Cannon and Aidrich would

WHAT is THE MOTIVE?

Many a witness has gone on the
stand and told a very strong story
against the defendant. 1t looks like
conviction-until you find the motive
which actuates the witness. Then the
fabric of accusation falls down.
Maybe that will be the result Of this
investigation of the United States of
America by Louis r. CLAWS. He has
made it appear that the secretary of
the interior and the commissioner of
the general land office, and the Presi-
dent of the United States, and a good
many other people, are Ieagued together
for the stealing of some million tons of
coal He shows kilograms and makes
statements that are very impressive.
And then in reply 10 some simple
little questions the fact comes out that
| he hates Ballinger; that he hates the
| commissioner; that he hates the Presi-
dent; that he hates every one else with
| whom he worked. Evidently he was
the twelfth man on the jury-the one
man who couldn't understand the con-
! tTariness of the other eleven.
CLAWS viii have to make better
case than he has so far before any one
will believe that his universal condem-
nation is founded in fact.

THE SAFETY VALVE.

Sometimes the engineer forgets, and
the volume Of steam gets too strong.
It might do d great deal Of damage

CINE gets so busy and so earnest, SO
charged with power and 50 beset with
opposition, that if it We're not for the
safety valve, she might blow out a cyl
inder-head, and delay the whole game.
They had a safety valve, an escape
valve, at Unity hall last Sunday night,
and they relieved the situation like ev-
eryrhing. The meeting was called to
protest against the stoppage of free
speech at Spokane, little time ago;
and they did protest-strong. What

AMERICAN MONEY SENT ABROAD.

Outside of millions, many millions,
of dollars spent by American tourists
in Europe annually, the foreigners who
the United States send a considerable
share Of their surplus wages across the
water. Money orders calling for ST.
/ 295, 0O4 were certified TO foreign coun-
tries from the New York postoffice
alone last year. No other nation in the
world could stand such an enormous
drain upon its resources and still be
prosperous. The money sent over from
the United States must be a godsend to
the people, relatives of the men work
/ ing in America, of the little villages
/ and cOmmunes of the old country. In
many localities in Europe there IS not
enough work for all hands, and the
young men are compelled to seek en-
ployment abroad. That they should
send money home IS perfectly natural,
( for in many cases il is used to send an

1T WENT UP, sUT CAME DOWN

The present weakness of the flying
machine is that it has to come back to
earth SO soon. 1t is good as a spectacle,
but it isn't much for work. It is not
especially ornamental, and not at all
useful. But it is going TO be.
Up to date, the English have the best
Of the view. They didn't take much
stock in airships of any sort, even at
the beginning. And when the aviators
captured France and Germany, the
stolid BritOn grew more stolid than
ever. and even scoffed at the whole bus
mess. He may have caught a little
swifter pulse when the FTenchman flew
over the channel; but even afterward
England has calmly declined TO be in
terested in the subject which has en-
crossed so much of the worlds atten-
ton
Which is fair enough. But it is not
the end. Somewhere, sometime, some
one is going to learn the secret the birds
possess, and will be able to fly every
where, and carry the necessary load
and come back again.
Just now the biggest feat of the ma
/ chimes is to come down where the driv-
er wants to. No one asks them to &c
anywhere definitely. But that is the
utility aim which lives in the heart and
hope of aviators They have learned
the beginning. Presently they viii
learn 10 be mighty useful. And then th5
stolid Englishman will take as much
/ interest as does any one else.

We love some of the people who ar
ranged that meeting, and have a high
regard for some of the others. But
seriously, we don't believe that they
believe all the things they said. We
don't think they believe that capital
ism has made the constitutional guar
antees of life, liberty and the pursuit
of happiness to become meaningless and
empty words. Yet that is what the Sun
day night resolutions say. We don't
believe they believe-not after Sunday
night-that the right Of assemblage and
the right of free speech are being inter-
fered with by President Taft, or any
one else to a representative degree.
And we don't think they believe the
doctrine of buy a gun and learn to
shoot straight" would be any improve
ment of the established system of gov
eminent obtaining here in the United
States.
But there was a degree Of strong SEN
timent on the subject of the Spokane
street speakers who were arrested, and
the Sunday night meeting gave oppor-
mnity 10 relieve that pressure. With
out doubt the people who spoke, and
resoluted, and voted, ana contributed

no one has a right to complain.

THE POSTAL DEFICIT.

For several years past the postal
revenues have not been sufficiently
large to pay the cost Of the service.
The postmaster general thinks the peri
odicaIs and magazines do not pay high
enough rates and that the deficit is
largely due to them. The matter is to
be taken up by Congress during the
whether or not an additional toll will
be levied upon the publishers. OF course
it would be appreciated by the taXpay-
ers if the postoffice department could
be made to pay its way. There is little
or no grumbling about the matter, how
ever. The mail facilities in the United
States are good and are growing better
each year. In no branch of the govern

breath, closed his eyes, and passed out
of a world where he had done much

were honesty, fidelity TO those whose

be conquered, and an ability not often

friend. and a fair enemy. He didn |
escape being hated, and he certainly
didn't miss being loved. He was

of his writing is tremendous, and in all

high ideals and clean method. 1t IS a
record worth leaving.

known him. The good he did will not
