detective" Perverts Facts.

A recent article in the Panguitch Progress
purports to give the gst of statement by ]. 0.
Sandin of that place respecting his employment
by the city officials Of Cedar City as detective
to gather cv dence against vioators of the liquor
laws and a. the statements misleading we
deem it the duty of The Record to correct the false
impression that has been given out respecting this
city and its officers.
Under tentative understan1in with the city
council that his acts would be approved, the
mayor employed Sandin to secure evidence against
any one who might he engaged in the illicit selling
of liquor in the city.
Although Sandin was supposed to work quiet
ly and without the know ledge Of those engaged
in the liquor traffic. until he should secure suffci
ent evidence on which to base charge, one of his
first acts was to display his star where whoever
cared to look might see, which act alone defeated
the very purpose he was supp osed to accom-
pish.
After retaining his star four days his ap-
pointment was revoked and his star taken from
him. In the meantime he had made an effort to
purchase "emon extract and "ginger ale'' from
at least two of the merchants of the city. one Of
whom is member of the city council. The
city councilman refused to sell him the extract,
for certain reasons, and Sandin induced two small
children to go to the gentleman in question and
represent that they wanted lemon extract fer
their mother. On this representation the council
man let the children have bottle of "Shill-
ng's" extract, known by every Cealer in til
country to be one of the leading brands offered for
sale, and the children delivered it to Sandn. This
is the catch" referred to in the Progress, and as
soon as the mayor learned that the story was he-
ing circulated to the effect that one of the men,
bers of the city council had been caught selling
liquor he investigated the circumstances and
when the facts had been learned, took Sandn's
star from him.
Inasmuch as Sandin was employed by the
city the mayor could do nothing in the matter Of
a settlement with him until the next meeting of
the council. 1t was never the intention of tie
mayor or the city council to refuse him the wages
to which he was entitled. and the amount due him
was allowed the mayor by the council at its last
regular meeting, and tie mayor. if he has not
already done Sc will, according to his statement,
turn the amount due Sandin over to the attorney
who handled the matter for him after his depart
ure from the city.
There is no question but that the members of
the city cornell are gentlemen of unquestonable
integrity and it would be far from either of them
to engage in the surreptitous selling of liquor ard
the rumor that has been permitted to spread
through the statements of Sandin and the columns
of the Progress are direct insult to their honesty
and business integrity, inasmuch as no name was
mentioned by the paper thereby leaving it open
to conjecture as to which of the council was
meant.

When one was completed her mother

The trained nurse who was with

why things were done. This not only
made her willing to be cared for, but
sowed In her mind the rudiments Of

Another girl made all sorts of dolls

The only way for her to obtain the hat

sale or CONSUMPTION for the alleged reason chat

sale or consumption for the alleged reason that
they are unwholesome."
In Utah alone, the fact that apples Indicating
the presence of a few worms, or with few small
spots of rot on an occasional apple, will pre-
vent their sale and subject the owner to liability
for a violation of the law il he sells or attempts
to sell them, and if the owner be found by
food inspector attempting to dispose of them. the
entire lot is confscated and DESTROYED are
doing more than any other thing to increase the
cost of fruits. And such arbitrary laws are not
confined to Utah alone, they exist in number of
states, all the result of the agitation of recent
years.
The men of learning" Ito whom may be
given the credit for the agitation which has re-
suited in such laws as above referred to- are
unanimously agreed that the farmer is the
heathiest class of all our citizens and for con-
firmarion of this conclusion it is only necessary
to consult the government census which is avail
able in any of the leading public Libraries.
Every man reared on farm will recall how,
as boy, he used to eat apples, worms, rot ard
alland he never felt better in his life than while
he was doing it. If he has ever had an attack of
the govt. suffered from dyspepsia, or "ptomaine'
poison, it was after he left the farm and no longer
ate the fruit that was canned as mother used to-
can it.
The diseases and distress that the flood experts"
of the large cities charge to "wormy and bad
fruit" is in fact due to other causes. The eating
of four five meals day, at irregular hours from
a. m. to a. M, partaking of highly seasoned
dishes sweets, candies, and the constant loss Of
sleep and lack of recreation are the real causes for
the ills which the Sc learned" men try to charge
to the fruit and the produce.
If city people would eat the fruit as it comes
from the farm instead of waiting until it has been
treated to "coorines," representatives." flavor
ngs," and rumber of otheF distinguished pre-
cesses that might be mentioned, they would frd
less use for pink pellets" and pepsin compounds.
AS matter of fact there are ten children in
the larger cities suffering bodily ills because of the
lack of fruit acids, which frdt supplies, to where
there is enc who feels any All effects whateverl
from the eating of bad fruit
Then there are the metE Us Of putting up foods
that have been adopted in gent years and which
the public demands "for the sake of convenience y
that is adding to the cost of food. Several years
ago the merchant supplied oatmeal. hominy.
crackers cakes and of other articles of food
in bulk but today these must be put up in individ
ual cartons, nicely labeled and carefully packed.
1t takes time to do the additional labor necessary
to place the articles in the latter condition ready for
sale, all of which costs the manufacturer money
and all of which the consumer must pay for when
he purchases one of these articles for his table.

saIt and Fresh Water Lakes.

Fresh water lakes are always only
expansions of rivers, due to the par
tlcular Typographical con1guration of
valley. They are all characterized by
the fact that the water that they re-
ceive runs onr either continuously or
intermittcndy and that the chemical
constitution OF their water remains
constantly the same as that of the
streams and rivers Of the same region.
Salt lakes Oh the other hand, are al
ways closed basins. without outlet, and
their water is removed only by surface
evapuration These facts being well
understood, we see at once why the
former lakes contain fresh water and
the others salt water. Water is ma
lures great solvent Hardly a single
substance. simple or compound, es-
rapes It's disso!vinS action. Conse-
Quently the water that flows over the
earth's surface or in It's depths con
tains constantly in solution substances
that finally accumulate in the goat
common reservoir. the ocean, whose
mass. removed only by evaporation,
becomes more and more charged with
saline matter.
