Whole Block is Practically
Wiped Out by the Flames
Sunday Evening
LOSS ESTIMATED At $4,000
Fire Originates in Candy Store
from Gasolene Tank of Gas
Lighting System

The most disastrous fire in
Burke county since the conf1agra-
ton in Bowbells two years ago,
occurred at Portal Sunday even
ing when practically an entire
block was wiped out in that viii
lage by the flames.
The fire started at about 7:15
i p. m. in the candy store of A.
Daly, when Mr.. Daly's assistant,
Edgar Vollin, was working on
the tank of the gas lighting sys-
tenn. Mr.. Vollin opened the
valve of the tank when it was
filled with compressed air and
gasoline, causing the gasoline to
shoot out onto a red hot stove
and ignite. In a second the
whole place was in flames. So
quick did the fire spread in the
building that Mr.. Vollin was un-
able to save a single thing in the
store, even the money in the
cash register burning up.
Portal has practically no fire
protection and the fire had it's
own way to great extent. Eye
witnesses say that had there
been any wind at all that even
ing the whole village would have
been destroyed, as the buildings
are close together and are all
built from lumber.
The only building in the. block
that was saved was the drug
store of Andy Reite, which was a
few rods away from the other
buildings, and it took a lot of
hard work on the part Of the
volunteer firemen to keep that
from burning up.
The occupants of the DAILY
candy store at the time of the
starting of the fire were all quite
badly scorched, but none serious
ly.
The losses are estimated to be
in the neighborhood of $13, 600.
Following are the heaviest losers:
A. DAILY, candy store, complete
loss, fixtures and candy stock,
about ST, 600, with $3.50 insurance.
VIM. Anderson, pool hall,
nothing saved, fixtures and to-
bacco and soft drinks stock,
about So, 600, with $1,000 insu-
rance. &-s: ~.".

saved everything in building:
Bert Percy owned the buildings
in which the pool room and can
DIV store were located, and his
loss is estimated at about SIS, 600.
We have been unable to learn the
amount of insurance he carried.
In addition to this several
barns and outhouses and an ice
house were destroyed. a.4

PREDICTS A WAR
WITH THE JAPS
War With Japan Predicted Be-
fore the Isthmian Canal is
Completed, Says H.
H. Rogers.

H. II. Rogers, son Of the late
Standard Oilfinancier, whose hob
by is study of military affairs, has
just returned to his home at New
York after a long trip of obser-
vation in the army centers of
France and Germany, and Mr..
Rogers brought home with him
the unpleasant prediction that
Japan will provoke war with the
United States some time before
the Panama canal is opened for
business.
This is not only the belief of
Mr.. Rogers, but the consensus of
opinion, he says, of the military
men who he met during his visit
of seven months abroad.
| Mr.. Rogers is captain in the
Twenty-second regiment of the
National guard of New York and
a military enthusiast. w hi lie
abroad he talked with officers
from the lowest ranks to the
highest, and found them all of
the belief that the United States
would be badly beaten in the
fight.
Summing up what h e had
cleaned abroad, Mr.. Rogers said:
They have a high regard in
Europe for the strength and the
clever fighting ability of ou +
navy, and so have the Japanese,
but they look upon our army as a
joke. The foreign military men
say it is too small to be of any
use. Japan is not anxious to get
into a war with us just now,
while a great war debts hanging
over her, but she is making a
desperate effort to pay it off
quickly and will make loans again
to carry her through fight with
US.
THE control of the Pacific is
between her and the United
States, and she means to get it.
Notwithstanding all this recent
peace talk in Japan, that nation
is going to strike before the Pan
anna canal is opened. " >
"The United States has a good
infantry, but it is not prepared
for war. It is my ambition to
see this country adequately pre-
pared. In the first place we have
not enough trained men to put in
the field. We have not nearly
enough mobilizing station.
There is no question but that
the Japanese could land 200, 600
trained fighting men on the Paci-
ic coast before we could. Unless
we undertake to establish a big
standing army quickly, we will
be beaten in an engagement with
the Japanese. Another short
coming that must not be overlook
| ed is the fact that we are using
war tactics 200 years old. +
"Weneed the universal military
service. We should have a COM
pulsory service Of three years for
men. x ls5 n

four BANDITS
HOLD UP TOWN.

Mitchell, s. D.. April 7.-Ofcers
with bloodhounds today are search
ing for four bandits who held SO
citizens of the village of Lane at
bay while they worked for more
than an hour to blow open the vault
of the citizens State bank
A deafening blast from the rear
of the bank brought dozens of viii
layers to the scene shortly after
midnight. Three of the bandits,
armed with rifles, held the crowd at
a safe distance while their compan-
ions exploded three more charges of
dynamite beneath the vault door,
The steel did not yield, and the men
were compelled to abandon their
work without securing a dollar
While the robbers were at work,
other citizens made an unsuccessful
attempt to arouse the proprietor of
hardware store to secure arms and
ammunition. Meanwhile, the quar-
tet escaped down an alley stole a
horse and buggy belonging to a
Methodist minister and started for
the prairie country.

Mrs Price Hughes, who is one Of
England's most prominent clubwu-
men, and Mrs. Despard, the presl-
Gent of the Women's Freedom league
over there, have hastened to agree
with the dear bishop, especially from
the standpoint of the women.
On this side of the water how.
ever, the trend of opinion has been
opposed to it, at least among the
wives. Mrs. William Cummings
Story Of New York, who is honorary
president of the City Federation Cf
Women's Clubs, says that people
who love each other do not want to
be separated under any circum-
stances. Mrs. Philip Van Valcken-

wives wouldn't want to- And, says
Mrs Loebinger:
"I do not think it would be safe,

husband alone for two weeks in a
great city like this. Men are men,
and it isn't wise to deliver them into
temptation. The bishops plan, If
literally carried out, would result
in a larger crop Of affinities than of
happy marriages"
These opinions, of course, are only

cided that the American syndicate
can accomplish little.
A representative of one of the
largest bankers associations said
that the British policy from now on
will be to tighten its hold on it's
present field rather than the exploit
alton of new territory.
According to bankers here the
Rothschilds' influence in Brazil Is
supreme. Besides having more than
$500,000,000 invested in the coun-
try, they act as the government
bankers and issue all government
loans. To all intents and purposes
they consider themselves safe
against competition.
For thirty years English investors
have been pouring money into Chill
and the Argentine.
Financiers here argue that the
natural effect of this is an increase
of the influence of the financial
houses which control such invest
ments.
Despite their assurance that the
British and German banks control
the situation, English financiers
agree that desperate fight would
be put up against a determined at
tempt from the United States to dis
lodge the Britishers.

MORGAN WANTS
TO CONTROL ALL
SOUTH AMERICA
Lrn1rrp rrpsa rpAsrp w1np.l

London, April THE prevailing
opinion of England's financiers in
teryiewed by representatives of the
United Press is that the proposed
invasion of American capitalists,
headed by ]. Pierpont Morgan and
the Standard Oil into South Amer
lea in an effort to secure a large
share of the banking business will
meet with failure.
The report that Morgan and the
"oil trust" were preparing to wrest
control of the South and Central
American banking from the English
and German hands caused some
brisk thinking on the part of mon
eyed men here and on the continent.
If such a plan succeeded it would
make a great deal of difference to
some of the largest houses on this
side of the water.

windows are left open without the
thought of trouble from flies.
The logic of which is that if the homes
were kept entirely clean, the flies would
stay away from home-equal to the
most confirmed wanderer on record.
Garbage cans that are kept covered do
not help the flies. They tend to make
an end of that Iight-winged tribe.
Homes in which rooms and sinks and
utensils are clean, back yards and al
legs and stables ard cellars where moth
ing is left to decay-these places dis
courage the flies, and they vanish. They
go where they are wanted-and stay
away from the places where cleanliness
serves notice of custer upon them.

OPPORTUNITIES IN UTAH.

The Iron County Record tells of two
men who have struck a good flow Of ex-
cellent water about ten miles north of
Cedar City. The men drove a well two
hundred feet, and they have made the
land of that vicinity worth dollars
where it went begging for dimes a
month ago.
The thing is vastly important to that
section of the state. But it is more i'm
portant because Of the easily believed
fact that If there is water In Iron
county deserts there is water every
where in Utah. It certainly underlies
the soil. 1t may be at greater depth
in some places-and certainly is In the
portion of Juab county south Of Nephi.
But there is water. The fact is becom-
ing more and more firmly established
every day. And wherever there is wa
ter, there is wealth.
Utah men do not have to go into an
other state to get chance. They have
1t right here at home.

There's more in the man than there

LISTEN TO THIS.
Here is a song of spring from the Sc
vier Valley Sun:

Here is a song of spring from the Sc
vier Valley Sun:
Sunny Jim Long was down from Ma
rysvale Wednesday. He said that spring
had arrived at the vale and the hornets
were building their nests in the lilac
bushes. Mr.. Long further remarked
that there had been something doing all
winter in many of the mining proper
ties near that camp. Up in Bullion
canyon Frank Dalton's Shamrock has
been making good and a car of high
grade ore is now awaiting shipment.
The Cascade, owned by a New Jersey
syndicate, is being put into good shape
and gives promise of becoming a great
producer. Good work has been going
on all winter, and no fear is expressed
that it will fail to fall into line the COM
ing season. There has been something
doing in all the minor properties, and
this spring a feeling of optimism is per-
vading the camp. Mining men are
feeling confident that there will soon
be a rift in the clouds.
You know where is Marysvale? 1t is
at the extreme end of the Rio Grande
extension south from Richf1eld. 1t is as
far away as you can get on the rail-
road. It is well along toward the road
to the Grand Canyon of the Colorado
little this side Of Kanab, and farther In
difficulty than in miles from st. George.
There is money in the hills about
Marysvale; and more money in the soil
Of their valleys. And beyond it, there
are the splendid stretches of undevel-
oped country that will one day be Utah
all the way to the Grand Canyon.
Spring at Marysvale invites attention
OF capitalists to the fact that fifty thou
sand tourists last year visited the
Grand Canyon from the southern side
The northern is the better side-and
passengers would rather go by the
north. That route would give them a
chance to visit Utah, also. And they all
want to see Utah.
If men can't build a railroad just now,
let them start a line of automobiles. and
take people from Marysvale to the Colo
RADIO river.
That travel is properly source OF
revenue for Utah. And spring al
Marysvale emphasizes the reasons fol
an extension Of transportation facilities
beyond the present terminus.

BIBLES, AND THE COST OF
LIVING.

Those impassioned gentlemen who
find the cost Of living increased. and
who charge the raise to the tariff, must
have overlooked the matter of Bibles.
The tariff on Bibles was reduced every
time the tinkerers have had a whack
at the schedules; and yet here are the
publishers of that popular and neces-
sary book demanding an increase of
sale prices. 1t is matter of common
knowledge wherever Bibles are bought
that they cost more now than they have
since eighteen-eightyth three.
Also, raw cotton is on the free list
absolutely on the free list. 1t doesn't
pay any duty at all. And yet cotton is
higher in price right now than it has
been since ninety-nine.
Nobody likes the present high cost of
living. But there is no need charging
it to the tariff when II is easily demon
strable that the tariff has nothing to
do with 1t.
