FOR THE ADVANTAGE
OF WOMEN

From the favorable reception that is
being accorded the Smoot bill provid-
ing for the more complete endowment
ana maintenance of agricultural ex-
pertinent stations in the various states
and territories of the Union, 1t appears
quite probable that by the close of next
winters session OF Congress the bill
agricultural experiment station in the
country VIII be equipped by the ma
tional government with a department
for research and experiment bearing di-
rectly on home economics. including
both domestic science and domestic art.
The measure provides that. COM
mencing with the fiscal year 1911, $4,000
shall be appropriated annually, in ad-
dition to the sums already provided for
by law for agricultural experiment sta
lions, to a home economics department
IN each OF such stations throughout Tie
lau6, the entire sum to be expended in
research and experiment and gfvins
publicity thereto.
Il
make a school of special instruction for
girls and women in domestic science
and domestic art, as a permanent de-
partment of each agricultural expert
ment station. In other words, as the
boys and men are taught advanced
scientific methods of farming and soil
cultivation, SO the girls and women
shall be trained in advanced scientific
methods of home economic Ht.. That
the advantages to the gentler sex be-
cause of such an institution In every
state will be as great as the advan-
tages that have come, and are coming,
to men in the lines of better and more
progressive agricultural developments,
of such a law viii be hailed with de-
light by the present and future genera
lions of home-makers.
There is probably nothing that SEN
ator Smoot could do which would prove
OF greater and more practical benefit
10 the homes of the American people
than to secure the passage Of the bill
referred to, which he framed and intro
duced into the Senate. While its ad-
vantages go directly to the women Of
the nation, particularly to the home
loving and home-making portion of
them, its beneficial results go almost as
directly and acceptably to every father
and son whose wife or mother Is re-
cipient Of the valuable course Of in
struction indicated.
Truly, Utah is honored in thus becom-
ing, through the comprehensive activi-
ty of an official representative, the lead
er among the states in movement so
fraught with the certainty of practical
and enduring beneficial results to those
on whom rests the greater responsible
ties for the best and brightest and hap
piest homes Of the natiol-its home
keeping and home building women

KERN FOR SENATOR.

Tom Taggart and his machine in the
junk pile, John E. Lamb relegated to
the rear and John w. Kern nominated
for United States senator. That is the
outcome of the Indiana Democratic
convention. Taggart went down to de-
feat on the. proposition of holding a
statewide primary for the nomination
of a senatorial candidate. the vote
standing 1857 to 1854, close enough to
make the winner decidedly uncom-
Portable while the ballots were being
counted Kern was enabled to carry
of the prize over Lamb on account of
the bitter hostility to Taggart support
ers from indianapolis toward the Terre
Haute man.
The nomination of Kern by the state
convention will not serve to unite the
party in Hoosierdom. 1t is a wide-open
split, and the fight will be carried TO
the polls. No other outcome was pos
sible from the moment Taggart SHE'D
his caster into the ring. If the hero of
Fench Lick Springs had been success
full the other faction would have made
war upon him from the jump. Now
that he has been knocked down and
dragged out, his adherents will go after
the successful man, even though they
aided in putting him up. It's human
nature when a political fight has been
carried to such extreme lengths as in
the case Of the Indiana Democrats.
Owing to the gyrations and acrohatic
performance of Senator Beveridge, the
Republican party in Indiana is not in
the best possible condition for the COM
ing campaign. The troubles OF the Re-
publicans. however, are not to be COM
pared with the situation in which the
Democrats find themselves. The Re-
publican convention was harmonious.
while the Democratic gathering was
marked by much wrangling and bitter
personalities, wounds being inflicted
that cannot be healed by the applica-
ton of soft words now thSt the con-
vention has ended.
John w. Kern was unknown outside
the state of Indiana up to the time of
the last Democratic national conven-
ton. While casting about for a lamb to
be slaughtered with Bryan, the dele
gates fixed upon Kern as the victim.
The slaughter occurred as per sched-
ule. The state of Indiana elected
Democratic governor and legislature,

WAR UPON CONSUMPTION.

throughout the country and from thou
sands of pulpits and platforms the doc
trine of cleanliness and right living was

the war upon consumption.
In cities like Salt Lake, where the
disease is comparatively rare, the peo-
pie have no proper conception of the
conditions prevailing In the congested
centers Of population. In these cities
the tenement houses are full of dis
ease germs, and there is no escape for
the unfortunate people who are COM
PEELED to live in them. According to
DR.. John Lovejoy Elliott of New York,
the death rate in that city is three per
cent higher than In London. Every
year $1,000 people die in New York of
preventable diseases. They live in
houses full of consumption. There is
one row of tenement houses in New
York where it is perfectly we'll estab-
lished that people living in them al
most invariably die of consumption;
yet these houses are always occupied,
because the rents are cheaper.
This is an appalling condition of af-
fairs. The reason given is that wages
are so low that there is no escape for
the poorer classes of laborers and their
families. 1t is either die in the streets
of exposure or succumb to tuberculosis

The Cause of
Much Sickness
BAD Nerves.

odu NSENosi
Nervousness, many physi-
clans tell US, is the most prev
alent aiIment In this nervous
age.
Nervousness results from
several causes, the chief one
being = choked condition Of
the nerves branching from the
spinal cord. where with the
exception OF a few direct from
the brain, all the nerves OF
the body spring.
The nerve circulation being
! interfered with by the YER
tebral bones pinching or dis
placing them, the effect Of
this condition is felt at the
termination or ends Of the
nerves-Often quite distant
from the cause OF the all
ment.
A great deal OF stomach,
liver and kidney troubles are
caused from an interference
with the nerve circulation.
The nerves require the same
free passage through the body
as the blood vessels.
Female weakness and head
aches usually result from
poor nerves"

of CHIROPRACTIC. the sci
ence that assists Nature by

I lation, offers you free con-
sultation. She has cured

TAX COLLECTOR ADVISES
RAPIDITY IN PAYMENTS
Date of Delinquency. with Penal
ties, Now Less Than Two
Weeks Away

With less than two weeks remaining
before the date Of delinquency, taxes
paid into the office of City Tax Col
lector Clarence Taggart now total only
$766, 411.99. The total amount charged
against this office for collection is $4,-
237, ,532. 80, of which one-half will be-
come delinquent if unpaid Novem-
ber 2S.
Mr.. Taggart said yesterday that he
expected his office force to be literally
buried in work from now on.
1.-THE rush already has begun" he
continued, but it is nothing now to
what it will be next week. Ordinarily
we collect about three-fifths of the to-
tai at the time of the first collection.
This means that we should have in by
a week from Monday more than $2,-
500 900, so you see we have only fail
start with our present total of three
quarters of a million.
with the facilities we have here
and the space allotted to us we shall
not be able to handle the business on
time unless most of it comes in by
mail l hope taxpayers generally will
adopt this plan. We will send them
their bills on request and if they will
then mail checks for the amounts they
wish to pay they will greatly expedite
our work and at the same time will
save themselves the Inconvenience OF
standing in line before one of our Win

NATIONAL STANDARDS
FOR TEACHERS URGED
Chiefs of Instruction from More
Than 80 States Confer
at Salt Lake

SALT LAKE CITY, Nov. 17.-More
improved methods in determining ma
tional standards for teachers in the
public schools and a uniform inter-
state certification are the ends sought
by superintendents of instruction and
commissioners cf education who, as
representatives of more than thirty
states, met here today in conference
that is expected to last through the
remainder of the week.
Pleas for the unification of the edu-
cational system of all the states will
be heard during the sittings Of the con-
ference. Prominent among the dele
gates here is Prof Harlan Updegraff
of the National Bureau of Education.
In his address today Prof. Updegraf
predicted that results of far-reaching
effect upon the future plans and work
of theJnations educators would follow
from the discussions
In his address, which occupied most
of the business session today, Prof.
Updegraff said that twenty-eight
states recognized certificates issued by
other states with various limitations,
while twenty do not. In the United
States there are 542 different forms of
licenses for teachers. To establish
common standards of proficiency and
unity the certiflcation system the
United States Bureau of Education has
prepared plan which Prof. Updegraff
explained.

PLAN ON FOOT TO EQUALIZE
RATES OF PULLMAN BERTHS

WASHINGTON, Nov, 17.-Reform of
sleeping car abuses by a governmental
requirement that a less toll shall be
exacted for an upper berth than for a
lower Is expected by students of rail-
road problems to be the eventual out
come of proceedings now under way
before the interstate commerce COM
mission.
Already the first federal move has
been made by such change ordered
by the commission on sleeping car
rates between Chicago and ST. Paul,
and st. Paul and Seattle and other
points.
The sleeping car companies, under a
decision of Judge Grosscup, enjoined
enforcement of this ruling. The three
cases of Lotus VS.. the Pullman COM
pany, involving this question, along
with the separate cases Of the states of
Indiana, Oklahoma, Kansas and Ar
kansas against the Pullman company,
involving the same principle,a will be
heard before Commissioners Lane and
Clark at Chicago November 80.

CUTTERS WILL PROTECT
MARINERS ON ATLANTIC
President Taft Issues Order to
Prevent Winter Wrecks

WASHINGTON Nov. 17.-The win
ter's toll of shipwrecks and death
along the Atlantic coast probably will
be lessened this year because of an
order President Ta6t has given for the
protection of seafaring men.
December ten of the revenue cut
ters on the Atlantic side will go to
sea from their home stations to begin
a patrol Which will not end until April
/, 1911. The Woodbury., Gresham,
Acushnet, Androscoggin, Mohawk, On
ondaga, Apache, Pamlico, Bomilo and
Yamacraw have been chosen for the
work.
With the exception of brief visits to
ports for supplies they will be con-
tinually at sea, patrolling the coast
from Eastport, Me-, to Cape Canaveral,
Fla.
Last year the revenue cutters
brought relief to 1856 vessels and saved
many lives. The cargoes of saved ships
alone were valued at more than $10,-

NAzIMOVA ACHIEVED HER
SUCCESS BY HARD WORK
Gifted Russian Studied Long Be-
fore Making Bow Before
Metropolitan Audience

Although, as an English speaking
actress Madame Nazimova achieved
success in a single night, her career
in her native land, Russia, was by no
means meteoric Born at Ya1ta, Crl-
mea, in 1879, the daughter of a chem
ist, she was taken by her parents TO
Switzerland at the age of years ana
placed in school at zurich untll she
was ten years old. There she was
taught to speak French and German,
and it was not until 1883, when the
family moved back to Russia and Nazi-
nova placed in a convent in odessa
that she learned to speak Russian
In this connection 1T is interesting TO
note that she found it much more
difficult thing to learn it than she aft
erward did English
At the convent she was given what
would correspond with college edu-
cation in this country, and among oth-
or things was taught to play the violin.
She graduated at the age of 16 and
after returning to Yalta for year she
entered the Dramatic school of the
Philharmonic society at Moscow at the
age of IT, Here, for three years. she
studied every branch of dramatic art,
fencing, ballet dancing, singing, stage
direction and all that could possibly
be of use to her as an actress. She
graduated first in her class and re-
ceived the title of excellent pupil,
the highest honor that could be con-
ferred.
Although the recipient of a number
of offers from st. Petersburg managers
Nazimova decided to remain as wis
iting pupir' at the Artistic theater in
Moscow, in order to study stage man
agement. She was the first and only
woman who was permitted to do this,
for it gave her entries to every rehears-
al at the celebrated theater. Leaving
the Artistic theater she again had flat
tering offers from ST. Petersburg man
ayers, but to be perfectly sure Of her
art before making her debut to a met
ropolitan audience, Nazimova buried
herself for three years in the darkest
towns of Russia. The first year was
spent in the small towns of the north,
in the White sea country. The second
year found her in the Caucasian noun
tains in the south, and the third year
was spent in POLAND. In each COM
pany she was the leading woman and
played every role in drama, comedy,
tragedy, opera, operetta and even
danced in the ballet. In 1904 she at
last accepted an engagement as lead
ing woman in the Dramatic theater of
st. Petersburg and played there the
entire season. During the summer
months, in company with Paul Orlen-
off, considered by many the greatest
Russian actor she went on tour in a
play called THE Chosen People"
The Russian censors forbade the
play and the players then went to
Berlin, London and finally New York
with 1t. It was in this way she came to
America. Madame Nazimova will ap-
pear at Hamburger's Majestic theater
in 1.-THE Fairy Tale" week beginning
Monday, November 21.

ORANGE GROVES PROMISE
RECORD-BREAKING YIELD
General Passenger Agent Peck Of
Salt Lake Route Tells
of Inspection

T. c. Peck, general passenger agent
of the Salt Lake route, returned yes
terday morning from a two days in
spection trip to Riverside, San Ber-
nardino, Redlands, Highland and Col
ton. He brought an encouraging re-
port as to the outlook for a success
full winter season.
Mr.. Peck toured the country not
reached by the Salt Lake lines In an
automobile and paid special attention
to the condition of the oranges anu
other citrus fruits. He says the pros
poets point to one of the largest or
ange crops in the history of that in
dustry, the trees being, without ex-
ception, loaded with fruit.
'It looks the best ever" said Mr..
Peck yesterday. Never did 1 see
things looking So good, prosperous and
plentiful, and have been here fifteen
years travelling over and inspecting the
same country. Why, it is wonderful to
see the new groves being set out
the new nurseries for young citrus
trees being planted-the efforts the
ranchers are making to get every par
tiCle of land under cultivation"
1--WE did not see me poor grove in
all the country through which we trav-
eled and we saw a good many groves.
Everywhere the trees are loadeu doWh
with their golden spheres, and can
not see anything but record crop
ahead.
ITO properly handle this crop I no.
ticed that the packing houses through
out the citrus belt are being rebuilt
and enlarged. New ones are also
springing up-old ones being torn down
to make room for larger buildings.
More modern machinery with which to
handle the oranges and lemons is being
installed.
And the growers themselves are
happv and optimistic. At Riverside l
made it a point to talk with as many
business men as I could and 1 did not
find a pessimist among them. Every
body. in every line of work throughout
the citrus belt is optimistic over the
present outlook for good crops and
good times, and an outsider, like my
self, catches the same spirit If he stays
long enough"

TRADER SAYS WEARING OF
FURS NOW UNFASHI0NABLE

SEATTLE, Wash, Nov. T.-That
the wearing u furs has gone out of

manager of the Northern Commercial
company, as the resa son for the as
founding fall in prices of raw furs,
which affects all classes of skins from
sea otter to muskrat, eEmine being the
only important one that did not fall
in price.
Alaska produces three-fourths of the
worlds expensive furs, but the price
is fixed in London. Mr.. Erskines COM
pany with ninety-four skins, had a
corner on the silver tip fox market but
was obliged to sell at half of last year $
prices, which ranged from S4O0 to $500
a skin. Nuskrat skins, used in coun-
terfeiting seal skins, have fallen 30
per cent because seal skins are less
fashionable and limitations consequent
ly less in demand.
