BOND ELECTION TODAY.

y school bond election is TO be held
in the school district comprising Salt
Lake City today. The purpose of this
election, is has been heretofore cx.
planned, is to take up the remaining
$4,000 of the $i50,000 bond issue Of
February. 1892. twenty years ago. These
bonds viii become due aud payable
unless they arc replaced by other
bonds. An amount Of Sl25.0o0 Of that
$ij0.o00 issue has been taken up, leav-
ing. as stated. balance Of $S2j. 600
OF those bonds now TO he provided for.
The Board OF Education thinks it
best. tand We believe that the public
will universally concur in that belief, }
to issue new bonds in place of this re.
naming sum outstanding, rather than
to levy special tax for the purpose
of paving off the full amount. Ac-
cordipslv the election is called, IN
which the taxpayers arc asked TO au-
tbcorize the issue proposed by the
board
We trust that there will be a unani-
nous vote ia favor of this issue. for 1t
viii impose no additional obligation
upon the city, but. on tho other band,
will reduce the interest by one-half oi
one per cent The outstanding por-
tiou of the issue now TO become due
draws interest at the rate of > per
cent per annUm. It is proposed TO
have the new bonds draw four-aud "A
half per ccut There is, therefore, an
advantage 10 the city in taking up
these bonds and replacing them with
bonds bearing lower rate of interest.
We commend the subject 10 the tax
PAYERS Of tho city. with the recommcn-
dation that they give an emphatic and
unanimous vote in favor Of this pro-
posed bond issue.

mcrly a work man took pride In the

BURBANK's USEFUL CACTUS.

IL VIII be remembered that some
time ago Luther Burbank had a heated
controversy with the so-callcd experts
of the L, $. Department of Aericul.
turc with respect TO the thornless cac.
tus. They could mako nothing OF 1T,
and so they assumed that Burbank
couldn {. But Burbank has clearly vim
dicatcd himself, and has not only de-
velopcd thornlcss cactus as good
forage plant, but a couscrver of water;
and more recently he claims that he
can get from his tbornless cactus paint,
wbitewash. and, after the mucilage has
been taken from tho cactus leaves for
the whitewash aud paint, the fiber can
he converted into print paper, or sort
of substitute rubber for automobile
tires.
All this sounds fabulous; but then,
what is there not fabulous about the
great discoveries and plant develop
ments made by Mr., Burbank Under
The natural selection processes in cvo-
luton. the distribution Of plants has
bccu made all over the earth, aud it
has becu held that each plant was
unique. self-perpctuating, and WAS to
be intcrfercd with only by the slow
processes Of nature in developing varia
tions. species, and, perhaps, new forms
But Mr.. Burbank has been able to
anticipate aud hasten nature in these
processes. having produced various new
fruits and developed qualities IN the
old that arc highly advantageous to
fruit raisers
The cactus grows naturally all
through the arid regions. The devel-
opment of spincless variety nutritious
for stock, and that can be used in the
ways that Mr.. Burbank now proposes,
would he tremendous factor in the
development of all tho dry regions of
the United States. 1t is fcrvcntly To
be hoped that everything that he
claims for his spinclcss cactus NAV bo
proved true in fact; and, so far as that
is concerned. VIC have no doubt that
it will be so found precisely as he
claims, for he is no takcr. aud has
amply vipdicated his ability in this
direction and the truth of everything
that he has set forth hitherto. Mr..
Burbank is bcucfactor of humanity,
the great cxperimcutor who is leading
tho way 70 q development of the arid
regions that, without him, could hardly
have been imagined as a thing prac-
tically TO be depended upon in actual
life. His performances give credit to
everything that he may claim, and the
public is prepared TO accept what he
says at par.

lection 10 The Tribune putting the re.
yponsibiIity for the panic of 1907 upon
tthcn) President Roosevelt. its oblcc-
tion counts for nothing, for The facts
are precisely rs The Tribune has stated.
President Roosevelt was undoubtedly
hoodwinked by Mcssrs. Gary and Frick
when they went 10 him and got from
him pledge that he would not prose
cute them for violating the antitrust
law. They, undoubtedly, terrorized him
BY the statement that the responsibility
for the panic would be placed directly
upon him unless he consented to allow
them TO do as they would, in spite of
tho law
The Standard further mistakenly says
that Roosevelt checked the panic. As
u matter Of fact, he did nothing of the
kind, The panic proceeded, in spite Of
his assurance of immunity 10 the Steel
Trust magnaics in their violation Of
law, and cot so much out of the hands
of the predatory interests that they
themselves became panic stricken later
on, and Morgan took charge Of affairs
in pcrcmptory way calling upon all
the banks in New York TO put IN their
reserves and Save tho situation. This
was a long time after the Roosevelt
consent TO the violation of the laws
and his promise of immunity thcre,
in, which had done nothing to avert the
panic.
ltiisg impossible for The Tribune to
agree that. under any circumstances
Roosevelt should be supported for
President Of the United States. He is
dangerous man, a lawless man, to
whom the Office of President simply Of
