ADDRESS DELIVERED BY
MATHONIHAH THOMAS

The history department OF the Salt
Lake high school enjoyed a rare treat
Thomas of the board OF education The
subject of Mr.. Thomass talk was irri-
cation. He traced the history OF irri-
cation from the days of the ancient
Babylonians and Egyptians to the present
time, 1t was shown that the Chaldeans
and Babylonians had highly developed
systems regulated and protected by COM
prehensive laws.
Roman law likewise gave much atten-
ton 10 defining and protecting water
rights.
The use OF irrigation on this continent
antedates recorded history. The remaius
of irrigating systems shows that the arr
was highly developed by prehistoric races
In both North and South America,
The first Anglo SaXons TO make use Of
irrigation were the Mormon fathers in
the Salt Lake valley

TIE HURRY-UP TINE.

Have mercy on those who work be-
hind the counter, in the shops of the
city. That should be the sentiment
impressed upon the people of Ameri-
Gus as Christmas draws near.
The manner in which so many people
impose upon the clerks of the various
stores here by waiting until the last
moment to do their shopping is little
less than cruelty to animals. Think
about that phase of the matter and
SHOP EARLY.
The shopping early campaign is nor
an idle one. 1t is in the interest of
humanity. People who think will not
defer Christmas shopping until the
last day and the last moment, if theY
are able to do otherwise. Employees
of the various stores deserve the sym
pathy of those who patronize such
stores. 1t cannot be better shown
than in the thoughtfulness and sensi-
bility of shopping early, thereby ben
efitting both ones self and others,

The MONTH FOR INTEREST AND
DIVIDENDS.

This is the month of heavy distribu-
/ ton of dividends and interest. AL
over the country there will be dis
bursements on this account aggregat-
ing an enormous total, the bulk OF
which speedily goes back into the
channels of trade
1t is estimated that there are not
less than one million persons in the
United States who own bonds of one
kind Or another, the interest on the
bulk of which is payable in the closing
month of the year, while the number
who own stock is estimated as run
ming into several millions. In no
ether country does the army of bonl-
holders and stockholders reach the ag-
gregate it does in this country, FL
though in France the proportion to the
population is deemed by some 10 he
larger
Investors this month will, it is es-
timated, receive approximately $105,
100000, representing interest and divi-
dend disbursements by railroad, indus
trial and traction corporations, accord
ing to statistics compiled by the Jour
nal of Commerce. To be exact, the to-
tai will call for an expenditure or
$104,595, $50, which compares with 500,
6S9,883 in December, 1911, an increase
of $4,905.773. OF the grand total, divi-
dends will contribute $51 1856 a
decrease of $294,227, this falling off
being due to the REIMBURSEMENT in the
dividend list growing out of the disjn-
tegrat ton of the oil and tobacco inter
ests. Industrial corporations will pay
out to stockholders the sum of $34, 49,
307, loss of $263,161. Dividends to Re
distributed by steam railroads and
street railways show & decline in tie
case of the former while the latter
amount will be somewhat larger. The
contraction in the steam railroad dis
bursements is explained by the fact
that the Atchison dividend is now dis
tributed quarterly, instead of semi-an-
nually. 1t should be pointed out that
various companies will make pay
ments on an enlarged capitalization,
and 1t is also to be noted that the re-
turns are more complete than last
year. Interest settlements will be on
a heavier scale agregating $4,000, 900,
against $47,4O0,OOO in December, 1911.

This was the good advice that
Speaker Byrd, of the Virginia House
of Delegates gave to a young farmer
who applied to him for an endorse
ment for a Federal job under the in
coming Democratic administration
II is really pitiful to see the eager
ness of so many men to give up their
regular business, whether it be mer-
camille, agricultural or otherwise, to
take job under the government, the
tenure of which may not be over four
years, the salary of which, in all like
lihood, will not be adequate for them
to save anything, and the holding of
which is quite likely to unfit them for
the ordinary work to which they have
been accustomed and to which they
must probably return before many
years have passed
There is no more pitiable spectacle
than the man who has been trying to
live off of political job, always on
the anxious seat, always fearful that
MS bread and butter will disappear in
the next election, and finally thrown
out on the bricks, without dollar, to
scuffle around in a generally hopeless
effort to catch on in private business
ann accommodate himself to new con-
ditions.
.-ea man who has got a farm or
business had better stick to the eoun-
ter or the plow and let the Political
d0bs alone He will have more inde-
pendenoe, be will have moIe genuine
character, and the likelihoeid is that he
