Every one of the thousands of ropes
used in the British naval service,
from the smallest heaving line to the
largest hawser, whether it be used
on shipboard or in a dockyard, has
woven into one of it's strands a single
red thread. This practice has pre-.
vailed since the days of Nelson. Many
romantic suggestions have been ad-
vanced as reasons for this red thread;
but, as a matter of fact, the real rea.
son is a simple and practical one
simply that it affords a sure means of
Identification of royal property, and
if any rope containing the red thread
Is found in unauthorized hands the
presumption is that it is improperly
possessed. 1t is, of course, forbidden
that rope manufactured for private
use contain similar red thread, as
IL is forbidden that any paper in the
United States contain bits OF silk
such as are placed in the paper from
which the national currency is made

ENDORSE THE FRUIT PALACE.

The local Trades and Labor Council
was in session Friday night. and
among other things they put the
stamp of their approval on the Fruit
Palace idea. The Herald has been
urging this for some time, but SO far
the movement has not gotten very
far along. But the councils head is
level, in seeing that such an event
would be a great boost to this city
and section. So far as the Herald
knows there is not a fruit palace in
existence today. and the novelty of the
name and idea would be sure of wide
publicity. This old town is a hustler
for business along individual lines;
every one of us is up and on toes after
business, but in our personal chases
We often overlook the larger oppor
tunities to make good that come to
us in a community sense. Who knows
but that a fruit palace would be the
means of bringing hundreds of new
people into the county, and surely
such result would be worth vastly
more than the cost And then again,
a people need a little diversion as
they go along. Just the same old
grind day in and day out wears the

sUNFLoWER PHILOSOPHY.

1t might be better for the world in
general if happiness and shiftlessness
didn't so often travel together.
Occasionally man has conceit so
well developed he is convinced his
teeth ache harder than any one else's.
There is one thing you must always
make up your mind te;~-Some people
don't know you, and wouldn't like you
if they did.
Think it over, how many people
have treated you right in everything?
If you can think of more than one,
you are lucky.
There is some dispute as to which
is the proper form, some ones else
or some one else's.' We aren't sure,
but one or the other will apply to
most of the hair you see women wear,

: AN EDITORS PRAYER.

1 would flee from the city's rule
and law, from it's fashions and forms
cut loose, go where the strawberry
grows on its straw, and the goose
berry on its goose; where the catnip
tree is climbed by the cat, as she
clutches for prey the guileless and
unsuspecting rat on the rattan bush
at play. | will watch at ease the
saffron COW and the cowlet in their
glee, as they reel in joy from bough
to bough on the top of cowslip tree;
and list while the partridge drums his
drum and the woodchuck chucks his
wood and the dog devours the dog
wood plum in the primitive solitude.
o, let me drink from the moss grown
pump that was hewn from a pumpkin
tree; eat mush and milk from rural
stump, from form and fashion free
new garnished mush from the mush-
room vine and milk from the milk
weed sweet-with luscious pineapple
from the pine-such foods as the gods
might eat! And then to the white
washed dairy I'll turn, where the dairy
maid fastening HES her rudy ana
gold butter to churn from the milk of
her butterflies; and I'll rise at morn
with the earliest bird, to the fragrant
farm-yard pass, and watch the farmer
turn his herd of grasshoppers out to
grass.-Bill Shivers.

Queer Feathers.

II the Audubon society attempted
to find the birds that are responsible
for some of the unique feathers OBJ
served on the hats this season. it
would seek in vain.
One of these odd creatures of the
milliners workroom when subjected
to close observation proved to be a
quill-common or barnyard variety
on which had been glued the long
hairs of monkey fur.
There is little wonder that these
ornate trinkets command such a high
price when one thinks for moment
of the infinite patience and time re
quired to make them, for each must
be carefully pasted by hand

Day by day it looks more certain
that the East Texas peach crop will
make good this year, supplying a crop
that will feed the peach-hungry ma
ton. Not only is the peach outlook
good, but the strawberry is ripening
on the vines, and all of the other
fruits and berries and vegetables are
booming ahead. With fifteen cent
cotton, eleven dollar hogs, and plenty
to eat in fruits and vegetables. there
is no sorrow in the cup of East

A QUESTION WORTH WHILE?

The Waco Times-Herald, edited by
Brother George Robinson, the living
question mark, the original and char
ter member of the I'm From Missouri
Club" asks this one of General Poin-
dexter: IF Judge Poindexter thinks
that Mr.. Colquitt is so very, very dan
gerous, why doesn't he get out of the
way and give Cone Johnson chance
to bag the game?" That's a question
worth while. Before Judge Poindexter
had tackled his sails against all of the
adverse winds, he admonished his
friends that if they could not vote for
him to vote for Cone, showing that in
his heart the judge really believed
Cone to be worthy of support And
since Colquitt is so dangerous, and
since Poindexter has not a ghost of
show for the nomination, and since
he has advised that Cone Johnson is
worthy of the support of clean demo-
Gratis, why, indeed, does not the judge
get out of the way and help the peo
pie elect man that is so worthy? In
fact, why do not the dry democrats
accept Judge PoindeXter's advice and
support Cone Johnson and insure the
election of a man who can be de-
pended upon to be friendly to state
wide prohibition? To scatter the vote
means to lose the fight The Times
Herald's question is up to every dem
ocrat in the state.

1T is BROUGHT TO BAY.

Mr.. James ii. MoyIc, chairman of the
Democratic State committee. has at last
brought the Deseret News to bay, in a
pointed, scorching letter, which, with the
News s shuffling roply, is reproduced
elsewhere. He shows its partisanship
its unfairuess. its injustice to himself
He has presented all these things show

News toward himself and the Demo
cratic party in way from which there
is no escape. The News accordingly
apologies, but it cannot undo the evil it
has done; and in making lis reply II
cannot refrain in its malignity
its humble apology for its wrougdoine
with u repetition of its wretched ISLANDERS
against The Tribune. 1t emphasizes the
ferocity of its attack upon Mr.. Moyle
by saying that it had placed him in a
false position before the readers of that
paper, representing him as unjustly at
tacking the News and giving to The
Tribune undue praise; and it continues
little farther on that Mr.. Moyle is
true to his party and his church and
that it had no intention to insinuate
much less affirm. cooperation between
him. as the chairman of the Democratic
party, "and the paper that has Sian
dered the party, vilifiod the church
leaders and been detrlment to the
business interests of this city

Victory TOT Ullc tnUftQ FORCES.
Salt Lake City has scored a magnifi.
cent growth in the past ten years. As we
have said before. however, it is a growth
not of ten years, but Of five. We are fully
convinced, and have stated it repeated
II. that the growth of the city up to and
including 1905 had been practically
nothing. In the latter year. many fam
lilies were leaving the city. If the church
had remained in control of the city ad-
ministration the population of this city
would have shown growth of less than
half of what it actually did show We
think it would have been entirely safe
to set the total population of Salt Lake
City at less than 10000 in case the
church party had remained in control Of
the city: and that would have shown a

the fact that il demonstrated Salt Lake
City to be a free city, escaped from
the rapacious clutches of the Mormon
priesthood; and this brought in popula-
ton and wealth at rate never before
known. Beneficially, in view Of the
fact that public improvements have
been put in al rate per year more
than equal TO the average ten years of
church administration. This in itself
has been vital source of growth and
progress. Taking the two together. the
political victory and the beneficial public
work, and the stimulation of these to
Salt Lake City's growth and progress
have brought the splendid results shown
by the census figures-these results be.
