A FatuOus Policy

From the New York Tribune.
 It is 10 be hoped that the result of the
 MeNamara case will open the eyes of
 Gompers and his associates to the damra-
 ble folly of their course toward lawless-
 ness and violence. Had the union leaders set their faces firmly against personal as- saults and the destruction of propertv: had they made their position plain by CO., operating with the authorities in bringing 10 justice any of their followers who in his misguided zeal resorted to violence Me Namaraism would never have developed To bring organized labor in this country To the discredit in which it lies today.
 And the case of organized lobor Is all the worse for the lack of some and de- the worse for the lack of sense and de- ceney which Gompers and his associates displayed when the McNamara's were ar- rested for the offenses to which they have just pleaded guilty. By his utterances then Gompers did his utmost to make the cause ot the accused dynamiters the cause of I the labor unions themselves. He pro- nouneed the case against the McNamara's a conspiracy of capital, and left himself and organized labor without means of re- treat from such catastrophe as this which has just befallen them His thun- ders were calculated to inspire any mur- derous unionist like the McNamaras with confidence that if he used dynamite all the resources of organized labor in this coun- try would be employed in his behalf Thus he lent encouragement to violence He nay now esehti rufte mfwyp fwyp wyp may now see the fruit of that policy long pursued and fatuously adhered to, even in the face of what was plainly impend- at Los Angeles.

FARMERS ID MEET
 NEXT SATURDAY At County Seats to Pledge Themselves to Reduce
 Cotton Acreage

Montgomery, December S-tSpecial)- )- Farmers in every county Of Alabama were today called to meet at their respective county seats on December 16 for rhe two fold purpose of pledging themselves to withhold a certain percentage of their aext year cotton from the market and for the purpose of reducing the cotton acreage bv at least one-fourth The call Nas issued by Commissioner of Agricul- Mre Reuben r. Kolb as an aftermath of the recent New Orleans conference of gov srnors, and as an echo to the financial syndicating movement which has been put on foot in New York. County meet ngs are to be had through the instru- mentality of the Farmers union, the of- scers of which have expressed themselves heartily in favor of the holding move nent
 i. sasetters have been sent out by the com- missioner to all of the county presidents of the state organization. and in these let .ers the officers are urged to corporate with the state department in every pos sble way to assure the success of the neeting It is suggested by Captain Kolb that a concerted movement on the part of all farmers of the south is the only solution to be offered to the present low prices.
 According to Captain Kolb's plans, blank forms will be sent to all the county pres dents who are willing to hold. their staple, along with the number of bales, or per- eentage of bales, that they are willing to hold. Other blanks will be sent on which are to be enrolled the names of those who are willing to reduce their cotton acreage by 9 per centum.
 Captain Kolb promises that he will make arrangements to have S25 per bale advanced on every bale of cotton that is kept in statu quo.
 Announcement of the appointment of Captain Reuben r. Kolb of this city as chairman for Alabama of the committee which is to handle the syndicate money from New York; which syndicate in turn desires to advance the sum of $25 on every bale of cotton requested, has ellie tied the information from many cities of Alabama that state banks of Alabama are already advancing as much as s3T per bale. In Montgomery from so to S3' have been advanced throughout the sea son, while in Selma the same condition obtains The. extent of the movement which Captain Kolb and Governor Emmet DNeal are fostering cannot be ascer- tained though if is expected that some definite plans will be made known nex week, or ait sossie early date.

 local preacher who occasionally got his metaphors mixed was preaching on self-righteousneses and ended his dis course by saying: Let us remember that after all our righteousness is but filthy rags hanging on the branches of barren fig trees" On another occasion he was preaching on besettng sins, and when comparing these to obstacles in our path exclaimed: Let us beware of these stones by the wayside, lest they turn again and rend us.
 The at one time well known preacher among the Wesleyans, Peter Mackenzie, in reading the third chapter of Daniel inveriably abbreviated the fifth verse wherein are enumerated the instruments of the Babylonian band, most of them with hard names to the "cornet," etc, and when the names were repeated in verses ten and fifteen said, "The band as before" He was a lay preacher of the old order who was admitted onto full plan without having read the prescribed tWesey's Sermons" etc. He boasted of his lack of book learning" and scorn- fully told a student of the new school who was learning Latin that English was good enough for Paul; aint 1t good enough for you?

Reform Should be Complete

FTOm tnt opIIHBHeIU RtpUDIlcan.
 It is for organized labor in this solemn hour of the confession of the defendants whom so many prominent labor leaders have passionately declared to be the inno- cent victims of capitaliststic conspiracy, to consider carefully, and one might say prayerfully the effect of this development upon the cause of the militant unionism. It is high time that in no uncertain way. the labor unions of this country disasso- ciated themselves from all suggestion or suspicion of sympathy with a kind of la bor warfare that emplays explosive bombs and makes murder the by-product of ter rorism. The McNamara's in their zeal for unionism, became dynamite campaign CTS. It is to be hoped that they are the last of their kind.

WASATCH HEIGHTS
PROVING POPULAR
Much Attention Is Attracted to
This New Residence
Section.

Among the additions recently placed
on the Salt Lake market, mono is at
tracing more attention than Wasatch
Heights. the east bench addition which
is almost enclosed by the new Country
club grounds. A petition already has
been signed, with fair chance of sue
cess, for the paving of Ninth South
street TO .Twepty-third East, and thence
south to the new Country club. This
will, it is said, make new boulevard
of unparalleled beauty Of view and at
tractiveness.
1t is said by those who have visited
the leading cities of the world that
the heights are almost always chosen
for the finer residences. This is true
of Naples, Rome, Paris and other con-
tinental cities. For that reason many
prophesy that the east bench Of Salt
Lake City will rival other cities of the
country for beauty of residential at
traction. The WINNER Investment COM
pany. which is in charge of the selling
of Wasatch Heights, report activity

REAL ESTATE
MORE POPULAR
Dealers Say That Conditions
Are Shaping for Better
Trade.
VALUES REMAIN STEADY
ON ALL PROPERTIES
Outside Investors Still See Good
Opportunities in Salt

Declaring that business conditions IN
general are contributing to the activity

none feel the upward tendency more
than the real estate trade, dealers IN
Salt Lake property of all kinds say
there is no reason to see anything Of q
backward nature in the investment OF
money in residence and business prop
critics in Salt Lake. To prove this, they
point 10 the steadiness of values and
the readiness with which owners or real
estate have been satisfied to hold prop
erty for the prices asked.
Values are steadier right now, say
the dealers, than in months, and In
vestors look on this as favorable sign
To put cash into Salt Lake property

While it can not be said that there Is
a boom In business, 1t can be asserted
and is asserted by many Salt Lake
dealers, that business shows consider

Probably one of the chief causes for
a return to real estate investments on
the part of local moneyed men is the
recent report on crop conditions. From
every part of the state abundant crops

reports absolutely dependable. Should
not a single dollar of outside capital
come into Salt Lake in the way of in
vestment in real estate, dealers are
confident of the assurance of good re-
turns from the farming industry, from
the mining industry and every other
industry in the state that return good
profits to the holders, and mean a dis
tributlon OF the earnings In realty in
vestments. Salt Lakers have had the
habit of investing profits in property at

of this kind.
