GOV. ADAMS ON CONSERVATION.

Former Governor AIva Adams of
Colorado must have shocked the Pin
ehot people beyond measure in his ad.
dress at the opening of the American
Apple Congress in Denver. Hc distinct
~ criticised the Pinchot conservation
administration in the West. saving that
there is Ga line Of success where con
scrvation becomes lunacy, and am not
sure that VIC are not in the crazy
zone. And he continued, Gin Colo
RADIO ouethird of the State is now a
reserve upon which il is trespass for
q citizen to set foot -
This is evidently because of the for
bidding quality of the administration
under Pinchot, which has kept prospec-
tors, bomesteaders, aud others who are
lawfully entitled to enter upon the for.
est reserves, of such reserves. The
law gives them the right TO go on the
reserves, and when Chief Forester Pin
chot was criticised for keeping them
Off. he quoted the law in his own be-
half, showing that prospectors and
homesteaders had the right to 60 upon
the forest reserves; aud still their com.
plant was that if they did go on the
regulations so hampcrcd them that they
had 10 leave.
We arc glad to believe that under
the amended policy of the Forestry
Service, that has como in with Presi.
dent Taft S administration, a better
policy has been entered upon, ono that
recognizes the people IS rights under the
law, and that will allow homestoaders
and miners TO enjoy their legal priv

Guilty is one easily met by an official
| administration that will conform TO the
law and recognize the rights of The
people In so far as the law has been
departed from, and the people S rights

amended policy introduced under Prcsi

ester Pinchot has been deposed. will
not again be iuterfercd with by any OF

THE FIGHTING IN MEXICO.

The fighting in Mexico indicates that
the iusurrectlon there was good deal
more serious than could have been sup
posed from the first reports. Still,
il would seem TO be impossible to carry
out successful revolt against Dlaz.
He has everything so firmly in con
troll, and is so completely in control
of the public forces OF Mexico, his mil.
itary forces arc so we'll under com
mapd. and arc SO constantly exercised,
that IL would seem out of the question
for there to be any such thing as a
successful revolt,
The fighting in northern Mexico ap.
pears to be with comparatively small
bands that arc not being reinforced
On the contrary, desertions reduce their
ranks. while the government troops are
constantly reinforced. With this state
of affairs there is practically no hope
for the reyoutionists. They have been
driven from their positions and have
been followed up by the regular troops,
making stands IN favorable localities
but always losing. not only the posi-
tions, but disastrously in men and pres
tige, The rumorcd move Of the iusur-
gents upon the Mormon colonies does
not seem very threatening, nor is there
any known reason why these colonies
should be invaded
Whatever may be thought OF Diaz,
and he certainly is not a model ruler
of a Republic In the popular sense, it
must be admitted that TO assail him by
force is to play his own game. lie is

make headway against him. There arc
throughout Mssico various little cen
tcrs OF hoibcds of discomfort. but only
in the north has this discomfort taken
tho form of active revolt, aud there IT
is not succeeding. Elsewhere, Diaz is
arresting all suspects, and everyone
against whom rumor points or evidence
can be gathered. Evidently, the end
is not far of, and this revolt, as other
resistance 10 Diaz in the past has been,
will be put down in rivers of blood.

THE LIQUOR ORDINANCE.

When the present liquor ordinance
was passed by tho Salt Lake City Coun-
ell, it was conceded to be the best or
dinancc ever enacted in this city 1t
called forth very little criticism. IT
was accepted with practical unanimity
by all concerned, as a satisfactory so
luton of difficult qucstion-as the
best that could be had. Under IT roG'
ulation was made practicable, good or
der was made obligatory, and in all OF
its general features it was commended
by the public,
But, as in all human instruments, per.
lection was not attained and some de-
fects have been discovered in the OF.
dinance, in the course Of administering
it, These imperfoctlons are now much
discussed, and amendment of the ordi-
nance is evidently necessary. Three
main points arc dwclt upon as needful,
the matter Of clubs, the matter OF res
taurants, and the matter of drug
stores In the amendment of the or
diuance TO meet the needs Of the situa,
ton. the essential clement in all is the
good faith of the persons involved.
First Of all, as to clubs. Because
liquor is obtainablc in the genuine
clubs, there have sprung up fake clubs
whose only purpose is TO dispense liq-
uor TO their more or less genuine mem
bcIship. These fakes loudly proclaim
their genuineness, and the question in
the abstract is difficult TO deal with
And SO it is now suggested that il be
dealt with in the concrete, by genuine
clubs taking out license and paying a
reasonable license fee to the city--say
$500, the sum which appears possible
for all tho genuine clubs to pay, and
some of them cannot pay more. At the
same time, it would give the Council
the liberty of refusing licenses TO mere
liquor clubs, as it has the clear and
absolute right to do under the law. An
amendment TO the ordinance covering
the point is needed.
Next, as to restaurants, the 0ues
tion of good faith is supreme. The
serving of vinous, fcrmcntcd, or spirit
nous drinks with or before meals is so
as a custom. The restaurant which
serves drinks in this way only, is not
saloon in the ordinary sense, and can
fairly be dealt with on a different
basis. But a restaurant which sells
drinks of wine. beer, or liquors without
meals is TO all iutcmts and purposes
saloon.
The question Of good faith is also the
main one as to drug stores A drug
store that sells drinks of wine, beer
or spirits is a saloon to all intcnts and
purposes. But a drug store that merely
uses liquors in the filing of prcscrip
tions or that sells patent medicines
which have liquor In them, is not a
saloon, and though it has 10 pay a
Government special liquor tax be
cause it uses liquor in prescriptions and
sells patent medicines with liquor in
them, il would be entirely unfair to
treat il as a saloon, provided that is all
1t docs.
In all this business, the clement of
candor and honesty is the chief fac
tor And In every case, the forfeiture
of license should he instant and de-
cisive where dishonesty and trickcry
appears.
We believe that with the present
ordinance strengthened along the lines
indicated. il would be found 10 meet
the case as perfectly AS any merely
