No More Tainted Chops.

up to that moment had never suspect
ed that tainted meat would be served
| in such luxurious surroundings as
prevail on the usual dining car A
newspaper man. on the same train
told Mr.. Wallis. Mr.. Wallis made nc
disturbance with the walters but he
went to the kitchen. There he showed
his badge and announced that he IN
tended to make an inspection.
HE found, first, that the cook was
working in hot little compartment
without ventilation. Next he noticed
that flies filled the compartment. at
tracted doubtless by the rancid smell
of bad meat In the ice boxes he found
bad chops, Shiny steaks. decaying veg
etables. He asked kindly questions Of
the cook about the season for it all,
and learned that his particular dining
car was on the nome Stretcn OF
long run out of Ogden, Utah, to Hunt
ington. Ore The custom. he found,
was to stock the car in Ogden and not
to restock it again until its return.
More than that, there were credit
marks for the dining car conductor
who served his goods so sparingly
that he always carried the largest
amount of surplus. Mr. Wallis took
note of the surprising amount of per-
spiration on the brow of the cook and
also of the frying pans into which it
fell He made a second inspection late
at night and noticed the feet of husky !
Negro walters protruding from blan-
kets laid down over the dining car
.ables Next day he searched for the |
blankets and found them-stowed |
away on shelves in the pantry above

Conclusion of Decision.

Held that it was the intention o1
the trainers of the constitution to con-
fer upon the legislature the sole right
to determine what property should be
exempt from taxation, and the legis-
lature having provided such exemp>
tion in the highway commission act
with reference to automobiles motor
cycles and motor vehicles, such prop
erty was not subject to taxation in
Ada county for the year 1913, and the
county commissioners and assessor OF
said county properly refused to cause
such property to be assessed
Opens Chances to Work.
The decision in this case will ena-
BILE the state highway commission to
proceed with work it has in hand in
the matter of constructing permanent
state roads Up to this time it has
been held back because of lack of
funds. 1t was estimated that the auto
license tax would produce $4,000 a
year to be expended on the roads. 1t
will produce but little more than half
this sum, but even with this money
available it is felt by the commission
ers that good work can be done.
1t is also felt now, since the SUI
preme court has passed on this 1ues-
ton. that the state will have less trou-
BILE in selling it's 100000 in bonds
provided for by the act of the lesisla-
ture.

written by Isaac Russell and its pub

the work and ability of Mr. Wallis.

''SWat the Fly"
In Idaho every Pullman porter car
ries on a swat-the-hy crusade and two
electric fans play upon the cook in the
dining car kitchen SO that the food
may be free from the sweat of his toll.
In that state federal judges have or
dered all the prisoners removed from
certain jails and the bedding in the
jails burned up to the last
the shame of maintaining
such a prison being so well advertised
in the meantime that the people tore il
down and commenced forthwith to
build new one in strict conformity
with the best ideas on sanitation pos
sessed by the voting women of the
neighborhood," says Mr. Russell.
These are some of the works Of
Sanitary Inspector James H. Wallis, |
who has also carried new sanitary |
standards into the drug stores, the eat
