How to Kill Your Town.

Buy from peddlers as much
and as often as possible.
Denounce your merchants be-
cause they make a profit on their
goods.
Glory in the downfall of a man
who has done much to build up
your town.
Make your town out a bad
place and stab it every chance
you get.
Refuse to unite in any scheme
for the betterment of the mater
ial interests of the people.
Tell your merchants that you
can buy goods a great deal cheap
er in some other town and
charge them with extortion. If
a stranger comes to your town
tell him everything is overdone,
and predict a general crash in
the near future.
Patronize outside newspapers
to the exclusion of your own and
then denOunce yours for not be-
ing as large and as cheap as the
city papers.
If you are a merchant don't
advertise in the home paper, but
compel the editor to go elsewhere
for advertisements and howl
like sore head because he does
so. Buy a rubber stamp and use

The state board of health has
decided that it is the proper
thing to abolish quarantine for
small pox. The gentlemen com
posing that body assert that
quarantining for this disease has
been unsuccessful in stamping it
out, and suggest the plan of do
ing away with it altogether. The
only evidence that the disease is
in the home will be shown by a
flag. but this will not debar the
inmates from coming out and
mingling with the neighbors.
The flag will simply be a sign
that the disease is in that home
and no more.
The Health Board believes that
by so doing the disease will
sooner be stamped out of the
state, because those who are not
afflicted will the more readily
become vaccinated. and make
themselves immune.
1t is also proposed to have
vaccination free to all who care
to have it, each city furnishing
the vaccine and the quarantine
physician performing the opera
tion.
Vaccination is not compulsory.
but you had better get vaccinat
ed just the same.

Mr.. Editor:

Just a word as to our places of
amusement. People must have
amusement, and they are going
to get it; therefore it is neces-
sary for us, as a municipality, to
see that the amusement in Cedar
City is of a clean, high-class
order, and that the places of
amusement are comfortable and
sanitary.
The Gem" Theatre, our most
popular place of amusement, is
not as comfortable or as sanitary
as one could wish. The hall is
narrow, and there is but one
small aisle which is between the
two rows of seats. 1t is very un-
comfortable to goin for the first
performance and sit next the
wall, -as they request you to
do, and then have to scramble
over the feet and knees of those
who came in after you, the seats
being so close together as to
make this almost impossible.
Then the seats, or camp chairs,
are much too small and straight
to be comfortable. AS to the
ventilation, well, the less said
the better. During the warm
weather the air in this place IS
positively thick" especially
when the room is crowded, -
which it usually s,-the electric
fan only partly circulating the
air.
Although the building does not
compare favorably with photoplay
theatres in other towns, | must
say that the service is better,
and the music and illustrated
songs are not surpassed.
Can we not improve the build
ing or build a new one?
-Thespian.
