to make the license prohibitive and
abolish the "runner' altogether.
Doubtless the hotel runner business
is pretty generally overdone; and yet,
the hotel runner is often serviceable
and useful to The lonely or timId tray
cler If he is honest and fair (and we
do not desire to intimate that any hotel
runner is othcrwisc), he can often give
travellers valuable information about
points in the city, as well as about the
hotel which he represents, and which
naturally he will extol as the best in
town.
Still, even at the best, there are too
many hotel runners At the worst, the
hotel runners are nulsances to every
body. II would be fine If none but
the best conditions should prevail, with
the minimum number of hotel runners
and a maximum Of honesty, courtesy
and intelligence among those allowed to
ply their vocation. Possibly the Coun.
ell could reach this happy mean and
thus satisfy at once the views of the
hotel men and Of the travelling public.
If this can be done, il would certainly
be worthy the effort, and other cities
would have occasion to follow the ex-
ample set here and bless the name of
Salt Lake.

THE NEWS FROM MEXICO.

The news from Mexico Yesterday
morning was decidedly in favor OF Diaz
IN Il five hours battle, it was said. the
DiaZ forces had won victory And
the dispatch carried an assumption, a:
other governmental dispatches have
done before, that the victory won was
practically the end Of the revolt. Blu,
this morning we have from the other
side AN entirely different account, re
versing the victory
1t must be confessed that we more
frequently get dispatches Of victories
by the insurrectos, the ovcrthrowing OF
government troops, tho capture OF
towns, and train Of brilliant successes
for the insurrcctcry forces and move
ments, than the contrary.
Doubtless The successes on each side
are unscrupulousIy exaggerated; and il
looks very much as though the first re
porter for either side that gets the use
of the telegraph wire is the one whose
account we read the next morning.

RECIPROCITY WITH CANADA.

| The agreement entered into between
the President and Secretary Knox on
the one hand. and the Canadian au-
thorities on the other. for reciprocal
removals OF customs duties on food

tageous 10 both countries. Certainly
| lis Immediate effect ought to be to
bines, and to cause a material drop IN
{ he wholesale prices Of meats, fish, and
agricultural products. Secretary Knox
explains that his purpose was TO pro
cure reduction Of the cost of living,
and to this end he has provided Tor
greatly cnlarging the free list so far
as IL relates to food stufls coming from
Canada.
Besides this enlargement of the free
list. there is in the agreement notable
reduction of duties on a number Of
American products exported to Can
ada, and also on imports from that coun-
try. The basis of the agreement ap-
pears to be as stated by Secretary
Knox. and the attachments OF duties
appear to he about on an equal scale
The general effect OF the agreement
will doubtless be to make the ports of
the United States and the railroads
running into this country the recipients
of Canadian wheat, to the relief of the
Canadian farmers of the Northwest,
who have been much hampered to get
transportation on their immense crops
immediately after the harvest
1t appears that the most active lob
ment, which was for the free importa
tion of Canadian forest products. and
especially wood pulp for the making
of paper, is not much advanced by this
agreement, unless it may be from the
cut from Dominion public lands. SO
far as these products in the provinces

ernments will have the final say, and
that is liable to be DELAYED according
to the interest or the Willingness of

its own standpoint. The effect of this
delay will probably be to give time
and opportunity for firm alliance be-
tween the paper manufacturers com
bine OF this country and like combine
in Canada. or perhaps a combination
of the two. for the control of the wood
pulp and the price of paper on both
sides of the line. Inasmuch as this sub
lect has been discussed very largely for
a number of years, the paper buyers
will probably find that the combine sug-
gested is even now either we'll under
way. or perhaps in full operation

UTAH ART INSTITUTE.

The Tribune hopes that the bill
aimed at the Utah Art Institute. IN
troduced in the House by Representa-
tive Russell, will fail of passage. The
bill seeks to abolish the prize of $500
for the best original painting by a
| Utah resident artist. shown at the an
uual exhibit of the institute It also
$1,000 per year for the benefit of the
institute itself.
The ostensible reason for introducing
this bill is that there was contention
over the methods of the institute in
awarding the prize last year, and also
the claim that some of the prize win
ming paintings are on the walls of pri
| vatc homes III this city, CONTRARY TO
| law -
With respect to these complaints,
surely there is virtue enough in this
| community TO make the awards fairly
and properly, without injustice and
wu uthout reasonable complaint. That is
matter of detail that can be cor.
rected if necessary by changing the
methods Of awarding or the member
ship of the awarding committee No
matter of this sort ought to he pleaded
for such a radical breaking up Of the
aid to this worthy object. But il
there arc prize winning pictures on the
walls of homes in this city, contrary
| TO law. then there should he some way
Of recovering those portraits and deal
| ing with them as the law directs This,
also, is not a matter that ought to sway
the Judgment of the Legislature to the
point of cutting of the aid to the in
stitute, And it is quite possible that
,f proper investigation were made it
wonld be found that in cases where
such pictures arc on the walls of homes
in this city, they are not there contrary
to law
Utah artists have done remarkably
fine work for good many years; a
number Of them have established high
reputc. and doubtless the art institute
has aided materially IN helping along
their artistic development Utah can
hardly afford to Withdraw its aid TO
the art institute on mere matters of
detail, even though the charges might
he important if true. 1T is not at all
difficult 10 get absolutely fair and am
partial awarding for an art prize any
more than for any other sort of prize.
We should hope that the Legislature
will not be influenced by mere gossip
in dealing with this question But if
there appears to he sufficient foumda-
tion for any Of the charges made, the
Legislature can easily provide for in
quiry which will develop all the facts
IN the case. But there is no cause
shown to Justify the withdrawal of the
States support of the institute.

TEXAS YOUTHS ID
 RAISE CORN CROPS Will Emulate Example or Jerry Moore, South Caro-
 ina Corn Grower

SAN ANTONIO, Texas, May 24.-- Jerry Moore, the ycungster over ill Florence county, South Carolina, who grew 22S bushels Of corn on an acre Of land last year and inspired the entire corn growing world by hi- efforts, will have a number Of imi- tators in Texas this year-real Texas boys who declare in their enthusiasm that thing that can be done else where can be done in Texas.
 In all parts of this state corn growing is becoming more and more an occupation of the farmer WhIic it is true that the older Texans who spent most of their lives nj the saddle chasing a Iank hamHed re- fractory steer do not know 9 great deal about farming, ana wnne theil efforts in this particular are some thing of 6 joke. the younger genera iion is determined to demonstrate that Texas is a great corn growing state.
 Boys corn clubs have been tormeo iT almost every county and in every one of these, the accomplishment or Jerry Moore is discussed The fact Is, Jerry is much more famous as the result of his corn growing than if he had eloped with some of the iron masters daughters of the effete cast. This young South Carolinian may not know it, but he haS started something among the farmer boys in all part of the country and the chances are that he will have to grow more than 22S bushels 10 the acre in the near future if he con tinues 10 hold first place.

NEW COURSES ID BE
 OFFERED STUDENTS
Several innovations Made al University of Arizona
 by Dr. Wilde

TUCSON, Ariz.. May 24.=In con- neetion with the work of r0 arrang. ing the classes at the university tor next term, several important an- nouncements were made to the stu dents in the department of econoni. ics. An entirely new course in med iaeval history will be placed on the curriculum by pr. Wilde. This new course will be under the instruction af pr. Wilde himself. Mediaeyal nis- tory has always been the new pres ident's forte, he having conducted a class in this subject for many years in Northwestern university. pr' Wilde has also written and trans lated several text books upon this subject.
 Under the instruction of II. A. E- Chandler, professor of economics, a new subject will be introduced into the economic course. The new stuoy will be concerned chiefly with Amer ican economic history and will be of- tered under the title of The Expan- sion of the West"
 The announcement that there is to be a course offered in public speaking under the department ol economies has aroused considerable interest among all students inclined towards debating. hitherto there has been desultory work in debating done at the univessitx chiefly be cause of the fact that the majority of students could not afford to give time to the subject unless they re eeived college credits. The course to be offered next term will be one semester course providing two units. The class will meet once week, un- der the instruction of Prof. Cand- ter and will hold debates on all pub lie questions. Work to be prepared out of class also will be assigned. The work will cover economies so' ciology and politics.
 Changes will be brought about ID the courses now being offered n corporation management and bank. ing. The nature of the changes will be to make the courses deal more with practical problems than with theories.
