THE MOFFAT ROAD.

We haVo from Denver. as printed IN
yesterday mornings Tribune. full aud
renewed assurance that ample money
has been raised for building the Mofrat
road from It's present terminus at
Steamboat Springs to Salt Lake City.
This is one Of tho to-bc great arteries
Of transcontiDcntal commerce. II has
been on the taps for "A number OF
years. and AS long az Ny Moffst lived
he worked increasingly 10 push the road
and insure it's construction, not only to
Salt Lake City, but TO the Pacific
Northwest
1t is now stated that $4,000 900 has
been raised for the purpose of putting
the road through. and that the now OK
tension plans are 10 he Independent of
he plans set forth heretofore. And IT
is confidently stated that active con
structiou work on this road will begin
in the ensuing spring.
a very important portion Of this
work is the tunnel through the main
Rocky Mountain range, which is now
surmouutcd by switchbacks in the oper-
alton of the Mofat road from Denver
to Steamboat Springs. The boring Of
this tunnel will be an immense work.
The State of Colorado corditionally
appropriated $4o00.0o0 at its recent
session TO construct this tunnel but
provided that the appropriation should
not 70 into effect until approved by
the people at an election. The man
ayers of the Mofrat road, however, do
not show any inclination TO accept the
appropriation on the terms laid down.
These terms would require the tunnel
TO be available for the use of any road
that might desire TO use it, But tho
Moffat road managers very naturally
desire TO have their road throughout
under their control, and their purpose
evidently is to bore this tunnel them
selves: and from a business standpoint
there can be no doubt OF the wisdom
Of that decision.
Every progressive movement in the
construction Of this line has been &C.
claimed with satisfaction in Utah. and
this new reinsurance will be welcomed
with a joy corresponding to its impor-
tance, and TO the convincing nature of
the assurance that the money is pro
vidcd for the completion of the work,

PANAMA CANAL AND UTAH.

The Clearing House Association Of
this city has passed good, 6t, and
strong resolutions IN view Of tho ap-
preaching completion OF the Panama
Canal, in approval Of the enterprise
displayed by the people of California
and by the city of San Francisco. in
arranging for a magnificent exposition
in honor Of the opening Of traffic
through that canal.
The Clearing House Association here
pledges itself TO use all fit and proper
means Of expressing qualification and a
patriotic pride in the glorious success
Of the Panama Canal. The association
will also urge upon the State of Utah
and upon the people Of Utah full par
ticipation in the San Francisco expo
sition, and will ask sufficient legis.
lative appropriation and contributions
so that the State of Utah can max c
''an equally glorious success of our
State representation at the celebration
in San Francisco in 19l5.'
That is all good, wide-awake express
sion and feeling. The Tribune con-
graduates the Clearing House Associa-
tion upon its enterprising action herein,
and trusts that this action may not fail
to bring effective and needed results.
1t is quite true, as stated, that the
Panama Canal is likely to change the
course of commerce of the world. The
fact that canal through the istbmus
would make this change has been recog.
nized by all the maritime nations for
four hundred years; and now, after that
length of time, when the canal is ap-
preaching completion, il is fitting that
all the world should unite in uuau-
imous and enthusiastic celebration of
that magnificent event

WOMEN ON JURIES.

We think that those States which
confer suffrage upon women make a
mistake when they impose jury duty
also upon women. There is case on
trial in Seattle where eleven men and
one woman comprise the jury in case

one serve in trial of that kind I'm.

be sure, stays with the woman Juror,
and the women are given a cot behind
screen, separate from the cots Of the
eleven men. but in the same room.
The uuituess and almost indecency
of this sort of thing ought TO appear
evident to any court or 10 any court
officers. And yet, if it is the law that
women must serve as well as men on
Juries, the court probably could not help
itself. But the nature Of jury service
is often such that TO compel women
to serve as jurors is both unjust and
cruelty upon them beyond all measure
