Commissioners Annual Report
Shows the Value of Herds
To Be S7,500,O00.
81, 1899 HEAD FOUND DISEASED
Most of These Were Dipped Twice Be-
fore They Were Given Ger
tihcatc of Inspection.

There are 2,1O5.9S2 sheep in Utah.
valued at s7.So0o00 according to the an
nual report OF the state board OF sheep
| commissioners which was submitted to
Governor William Spry Thursday
afternoon. The report gives In detail
the work done by the board and recog-
Mics the assistance rendered by the
government inspectors. Good prices
prevailed during the year for both
mutton and wool and many OF the
sheepmen have entered into contracts
for the wool this year.
The board issued an order last spring
to have all sheep dipped. or the total
number 81 $50 head were found TO be
diseased Most of the diseased sheep
were dipped twice before they were
given a certificate OF inspection. In the
fall OF the year the sheep were dipped
again and the inspectors directed their
attention to the localities In which
scables were found. OF the sheep IN
spected in the fall, 31.54S were found
to have the scabics. There are still
$50 of these sheep being treated, the
others having passed inspection.
The regulations governing the trans
portation of sheep from Utah and also
the sheep going into the forest re-
serves have been so modified that none
of them are detrimental to the sheep
Industry. Tho lip and leg disease has
been found among sheep In Utah and
has caused considerable trouble and the
loss of much money.
SOME RECOMMENDATIO
The sheepmen's greatest loss Is caus-
ed by the depreciation of wild animals
In regard to the bounty laws. the COM
mlssioners made the following recon-
mendations:
I'VE believe that all western states
should have uniform bounty laws. thus
preventing any fraud which could be
perpetrated at the present time. In
Utah the bounty on each coyote killed
Is 81 so, and during the year certificates
representing 100000 have been issued
for bounties on wild animals. We are
Informed that in Nevada IS cents is
paid for the killing of each coyote. and
In Idaho the premium is $3.50 Rumors
are current that many coyotes killed
In Nevada and Idaho just a short dis
tance from the Utah line. are brought
into Utah and bounties secured on
them In our state. Another fact Is
that the laws in the various states diff
fer as to what parts of the animal shall
be presented in order to secure the
bounty. and as a result, bounty could
be secured on one coyote in several
states"
The financial part of the report
shows that the appropriation for the
years 1o09-1910 was as follows. Com
missionerS, $1,000 secretary, 50, ,O00
contingent expenses. s1500; state in
spectors. $500. OF these amounts. on
Nov. 80, 1909, there remained In the
treasury the following amounts: Com
missioners. I.S75: secretary, 1,0S3 Sc;
Mt n.
SO, 2S3.50. All OF the inspectors have not
been paid for the work of the season.
for the reason that many of them have
not presented their claims.

HIGH SCHOOL UNSANITARY.
Salt Lake County Medical Society Fa-
yors Bond Issue.

The Salt Lake County Medical socle-
ty has adopted the following resolutions
relative to the proposed high school
bond issue;
Resolved. That this society as the
organized body of the medical pro-
fession of this city, be put on record as
favoring the contemplated bond issue
asked by the board OF education.
we believe that the present high
school building Is inadequate IN every
respect, and that the crowded condition
and necessarily unslnItary condition
of the high school is responsible for
much OF the prevailing sickness among
the students attending the said school.
Further. we believe that the practise
necessItnted by the inadequate building
of requiring students to travel from one
to two blocks In the open air in In
clement weather between recitations
cannot be too strongly condemned.
I'VE feel sure that with the means
provided to procure n new high school
building and to do away with the pres.
ent crowded condition of our schools.
the sick rate in this city Will be ma
terlally lowered. and therefore we ask
of all voters their assistance and the
exercise of their franchise in support Of
the bond issue"

GOES AFTER MEAT TRUST"
Commissioner Hansen Endorses Com
missioner Wallis Statement.

Food Commissioner Hansen has noti-
fed Cote K Co. OF st. Louis that he
has seized the consignment of un-
branded vinegar the firm recently
shipped into Cache county. This will
compel the consignor to appear in the
state courts unless il Is willing TO see
the shipment confiscated. The commits
sioner has also taken a hand in dealing
with the "meat trusts'' which are SELL
ing short weight hams and lard in the
Utah markets In this matter, Mr.
Hansen endorses the statement by
Commissioner j. II. Wallis OF Idaho.
as follows:
'The meat trust conducts Its busi-
ness under dishonorabIe methods Steal
ing from the consumer is the most con-
temptible graft and II Is criminal But
the meat trust Is without a conscience
Take this matter OF short weights in
the sale OF lard The price of lard has
increased almost 200 per cent, and tho
dealer today makes On enormous profit
at 20 cents a pound, But the meat
trust is not satisfied with a legitimate
profit 1t demands an additional rake
off and cheats the consumer by short
weights. stealing 4 pound of lard from
the buyer every time three or four
buckets OF lard are sold
This kind OF business is crooked
and 1t has got to stop. and stop right
now. We have absolutely irrefutable
evidence against these meat. trust
heads, and we shall fight these cases to
the finish. There will be no compro-
mise. II they are guilty. they should
be punished, and in my opinion the
offense is so contemplate and Sc
rlous that IL they are found guilty they
should be given the limit that the law
allows as punishment"
These sentiments correctly mirror
the Utah bureaus policy. and the short
weights in this field OF illegitimate m
dustry will have TO be stopped

ADVERTISING is TALKING.

Advertising is talking. A business
man cannot very we'll stand at the door
of his place Of business and tell the pas
sers by of the goods he has for sale, and
their prices. Even If in measure he
could do 1t the result would not for var
ious reasons be very satisfactory. But
through the medium Of his local paper
he can reach the whole community in
the most effective way under the most
favorable circumstances. or all the
varied forms Of advertisements expert
ence has conclusively proved that there
is none that brings such returns as gen.
erous, attractive advertising in the COL
umns of the newspaper. 1t is read in
the quiet OF the home and discussed by
the whole family, and the result to the
merchants is increased sales and en-
largipg business.

THE THREATENED STRIKE.

The conductors and trainmen OF the
Pennsylvania railroad are now voting
on proposition to strike. The points
at issue are numerous some OF which,
relating to conditions little. known to
the public, are very annoying to the
trainmen, but on the main issue, that
OF an increased wage scale, there are
few who can see the fairness OF the
trainmens demands. The Philadelphia
Record, speaking of the ballot,
epitomizes the situation clearly:
"The attitude of the conductors and
trainmen of the Pennsylvania Railroad
Company in the wage dispute now ap-
preaching climax is not altogether
encouraging to those employers of
labor who have heretofore found it good
business policy to deal literally with
their men. The railroad men and the
company are agreed that the scale OF
wages paid by the latter is equal to or
higher than that paid by competitive
standard roads for like service. But
the men complain that by paying
higher rates than competitive roads in
the past the Pennsylvania Railroad
Company has led them to expect con-
tinuance of superior conditions of
employment, and that in readjusting
wages only to the extent that readjust-
ments have taken place on other roads
the company has not gone far enough.
The company answers that it is unfair
that it should be penalized because its
competitors have brought wage con-
ditions up more nearly to parity with
those which obtain on the Pennsylvania
system.
"The trainmen are voting to decide
whether their grievance is grave
enough to justify strike. 1t is hardly
thinkable that they will elect to quit
their employment for the causes
stated. A prerequisite to successful
strike is case strong enough to insure
a favorable verdict from the popular
jury. The concensus of opinion with
regard to the present dispute will un-
douptedly be that the position Of the
railroad men is untenable. II good
sense shall prevail majority of them
will cast their ballots in favor OF a
peaceful settlement"

VICE IN AMERICA.

"Vice in the great cities, alcoholism,
gambling and immortality are no more
hideous in America than elsewhere" !"
writes the historian, Ferrero, in the
Atlantic Monthly. The difference is that
"in America there is still some protest;
in Europe there is silence" why"
he asks, ''are noisy New Years eve sup.
pers described as If they were the orgies
OF Heliogabalus? This may all be ex-
planned exactly as was the evil reputa-
tion of the last century OF the republic
and the first century of the empire as
compared with the second century; be-
cause in America the Puritan origin of
the state is still not far behind us, and
the reaction OF the moral consciousness
is greater than it is in Europe against
the progress OF that extravaganza, cor
ruption, and vice which accompany a
rich urban mercantile civilization"
