gan asks only for just appropriation.
The College is the greatest institution
of the state that is training the youths
of the land in the science of tilling
the soil intelligently. Not only that,
the girls are likewise being taught
how to become housewives of intelli-
gence. In these two undertakings the
College is fulfilling fundamental fea-
tures OF education as it is viewed to-
day. That the needs Of the institu-
ton require a good appropriation in
order to perpetuate this work goes
without saying.
But today we have an additional re.
quest to make. The College must
have a gymnasium. Thomas Smart
has donated $4,000 toward such a
bjAlding. and the alumni of the insti-
tuition have likewise accumulated a
snail fund, which can all be made
lse of providing the legislature ap-
pJppriates $4,000 for the same pur-
pose. Reasons why this should be
done on the part of the legislature are
obvious; but we wish to emphasize
this one reason, "the interests of the
school and its students demand a gym

THOMAS SMART, THE oYMNAS-

Thomas Smart has opened up an
other wide avenue into the hearts OF
the people of Logan and the friends
Of the Agricultural College. BY the do
nation Of $4,000 for gymnasium fod
that splendid institution, conditioned
on the appropriation of $4,000 by the
legislature for the same purpose, he
has awakened an additional spirit OF
philanthropy in this city. Other men
must desire to emulate the example
of this gentleman who is so large in
heart. Other men with large. bullying
pockets should get an ambition to do
nate other sums on condition that the
legislature will come through" to
use the language of the street.
There is dozen men in this city
who could place their names in a

they would. Thomas Smart has shown
a splendid spirit, one worthy of emu.

COAL RATES INTO CACHE.

The Consolidated Fuel company
and the Castle Valley Coal company
of Utah have filed a petition with the
Interstate Commerce Commission ask
ing for an investigation and adjust
ment Of coal rates from Utah to the
surrounding states. We would like to
add further request, that the com
mission investigate and adjust the
rates Of the Wyoming coal compan-
les to Cache Valley in particular. 1t
would be far more interesting to us.
The investigation asked for would
go into the workings of the coal com.
panies in the Diamondville. Kemmer-
er and Rock Springs, Wyoming, dis.
tricts, and the Uath districts in En-,
cry and Carbon counties. The com.
plant alleges that he railroads make
discriminatory rates against the Utah
Independent companies to towns in
the outlying country which are so
unjust that it amounts to a sitting of
competition. The complaint further
says that the Rio Grande Railway
company does not handle the products
Of the Utah mines as it should do.
but provides inadequate power and
car equipment, much to the disadvan.
tage of the complaining companies.
The entering wedge is made. That
start, we sincerely trust, will throw
open the conditions prevailing here in
Cache where we have to pay more for
coal hauled into our bins than do
Salt Lake, Ogden and Provo for. the
coal that passes right by our doors.
The coal that goes through Cache
Junction to the cities south of us a
hundred or so miles costs the dealers
less by twenty-five cents a ton than
the same coal right in the Junction
itself
Such condition we think deserves
careful consideration on the part of
the Interstate Commerce Commission.
Why we should be singled out as the
particular goat of the railroad peo-
pie is beyond our ken. Why a tribute
Of twenty-five cents per ton on the
heat we have to use must be paid 70
those fat railroad people, is quite i'm
possible to say. Uphold the hands of
the commission that justice may come
to long suffering people,

THE CLIMAX.

Much interest attaches to the forth
coming engagement of Edward
Lockes drama Of modern life, The
Climax to be seen at the Thatcher
Opera House on February 18th, The
sensational reception accorded this

goers will doubtless help to augment
the patronage on its presentation in
this city. "The Climax is under the

story, rather more elaborate than

Cordelia, daughter of Gen. Allen,
loved by Jeoffrey Martin, major in the
Federal army, but she cannot accept
his offer of marriage because she has
been betrothed, when a child to John

THE DAIRYMEN ARE WELCOME

Logan is proud to welcome the
Dairymen in convention today at the
Agricultural College. They are men
who are making the state prosper in
a splendid line of work. Especially fit
are they to make the state most
healthy place, for in their commodity
rests great danger unless properly
sterilized and cared for Their duty
to the state is important, and its full,
fillment or nonfulfillment means an
unreasonable effect the people.
That the Dairymen will consider this
feature of their work more strongly
than they will the monetay side of
1t is the sincere wish of The Republi,
can BY their devotion to the inter.
ests Of the people we can know of
their greatness of heart and mind,
We believe that the association is
composed Of such men who are strong
and good and anxious to serve the in.
terests Of the state. We hope that
their wisdom in giving us good milk
will also enable them to see that such
a service will fill their pockets with
good money.

WHAT ARE THE COMMISSIONERS
TO Dor

Cache county has elected Board
Of Commissioners That point is clear
and indisputable. The county has
likewise roads to build and affairs Of
government to run, and that is in
disputable. Next year roads in a bad
condition will be in a still worse con-
dition. And no body conversant with
facts will dispute that, either.
Now, the question will naturally
arise, what are the commissioners to
do about the matter? They will have
trouble galore in building roads and
paying salaries and conducting affairs
of government on an empty purse,
and the man who can dispute that
successfully is yet unborn.
Seriously thinking, the commission.
ers are up against it. ,, Why couldn't
the people open up their purse lit
tie? Or, that failing, why couldn't the
people permit bonding issue that
will insure the progress of the Com
missioners until the next taxes can
be paid? Really, there is work ahead
for all concerned, and the people
should uphold the government.

has not proved as practicable as 1t
could be hoped for. To go slow and
steadily in the matter of government
is the best plan. If due Investigation
and experiment are made as to the
value of the Des Moines plan, and not
merely good arguers tongue is taken
for solid reasonings, then hopes can
be entertained that the plan is gold.
Otherwise, go slow. :s1 p

The DIES MONIES PLAN.

Many of the prominent business
and professional men of the city have
unitedJ to petition the Legislature to
enact a law that will allow cities of
the second class to adopt the Des
Moines plan of city government This
form of municipal government is de.
signed to give the reigns of control
into the hands of few man who are
to be so Industrious for the welfare
of the city that they will manage af.
fairs in strictly business-lke way
On them is placed the responsibility
which cannot be made to stick on the
present form of government. With a
city council, it is presumed that the
ten councilmen and the mayor can
so shift responsibility that they can
escape criticism for failure to con.
duct properly municipal affairs;
while with a small commission form
of control, the responsibility can be
firmly and forcibly placed squarely
on the shoulders of the three or five
men who make up such ruling body.
The theory is beautiful Five men
are to be elected by the people from
the city as whole Every man has a
right to vote on all five men, and not
on a particular man who will be Sc.
leeted from a particular ward. The
Journal attacks the system by SAYING
that il is not representative, criti.
cism which we think it quite unjust,
because it is representative, as much
so as choosing legislators for Cache
Valley by voting for three men, no
matter where they reside.
But we have an objection to the
pes Mones plan on the score that
1t does not place the responsibility
any more than does the present plan
of councilmanic control. The only
reason why responsibility can be said
to be greater in the proposed new
plan is that only three or five men,
instead Of ten are to share it. On that
slender ground not much hope can be
built as three or five men can shift
the responsibility quite as easily as
ten or eleven.
We are in hopes that the Logan
people who are behind the move will
consider well the results of their eff.
forts before they go too far. The plan
is good theory which, we believe,
