bare necessities of army living.
Then they had to march and march and
through laborous and hardening exercises, their
muscles ached all over, and their feet burned. But
gradually they got the contagious enthusiasm of the
fellows around them. Then they began to feel
ashamed because they got fatgued easily. Day by
day the fresh air and hearty eating braced them up

The Food HOarders

The United States Secret Service has discovered
around New York, about $75,0OOOOO worth OF food
being stored away for higher prices.
The holding OF a certain amount of food in ware
houses is of course legitimate. Supplies must be
stocked up against the coming winter. 1t will not
nav to use food lavishly now and then fall short la
ter because the need for economy was not realized
The storage system least has the merit of equal
ling and stablzing the supply and regulating the
price.
But judging by the Washington dispatches, the
bulk of the food found stored was not legitimate
saving up of supplies for winter USE but was the eff
fort of spectators get unfair prices. 1t does not
seem to do any particular good to hold these people
up to public obloquy For year now they have been
denounced as pirates. Yet they keep on boarding
and feel no scruples when poor people have to pay
two dollars article they should be able to buy
for one They are in it for the money and do not
consider other motives, patriotic or humanitarian
The government WILL of course, have to deal
sharply with these people. 1t will doubt proceed
to seize food needessy boarded up, and it ought not
to pay more than fair price for it. 1t seems highly
probable that the hoarders will get less out of it af
ter they have dealt with the government than If they
had been willing to pass their goods to the people
for a fair profit.
They need expect little sympathy from the pub
lie If some of them go into bankruptcy there will
be few mourners 1t is a wise policy to fix fair
price on a product and be content with moderate
profit other basis can good will be built up.

NEW BARRACKS
TO GO UP AT
FORT DOUGLAS

SALT LAKE, Nov. Effort
Douglas, which heretofore has had
only permanent quarters for half
a regiment of the old proportions
of 1000 men, is now being fitted to
house permanently the new type reg
iment of 1855 men. In other words
its permanent housing capacity is
being trebled.
orders to this effect recently re-
ceived from Washington are being
quietly carried out by the post quar-
termaster. The first step will be
the immediate preparation for per-
manent use of four of the temper
AIRY barracks occupied by the regi-
ments that recently went east. Salt
Lake wholesale lumber merchants
are now figuring overtime on bids
for the construction of greater
Fort Douglas.
Men were preparing the barracks
that had been used by the Forty-Se-
cond and Forty-Third regiments for
winter vacancy. Sinks and basins
were drained, ranges disconnected
and hydrants boxed and covered with
dirt.
The plumbing and fixtures are
being gone over and prepared against
! freezing in the four that will be
used. Stoves will be put up in them
and they will be called. Planks will
be run around >the bases and dirt
piled up to above the floor joists.
When the temporary structures are
ready the construction of the per-
manent barracks will begin. Bids are
now being prepared and their loca-
tons picked out. They may be of
brick, and will be modern through
out
The quartermaster's department is
also busted with preparations for the
housing of the additional animals.
Appropriations have been made by
the war department for three stables
and two commodious wagon sheds at
Fort Douglas, according to Captain
j. II. Stern, quartermaster. Corrals
will be constructed adjoining the
new stables.
The largest stable will be 500 feet
Icn nd wi al
! imals; another will be $50 feet
square and will accommodate seventy
six horses and mules; the third will
be 200 feet square and will shelter
fifty horses. Each shed will house
twenty-five wagons.
The corrals will enclose ground
measuring $50 by 500 feet. The to-
tai area covered by the new stables
will be 100000 square feet. They
will be built southwest of the pres
ent post target range. Plans are al
ready drawn and construction will
begin as soon as material can be
arranged for.
A stream of recruits for bringing
up the Twentieth infantry to war
strength has begun to arrive at the
fort. The enlarged Twentieth in
fantry, instead of having $50 men
to Il company, as under the>old reg
ulations, will be made up of compa-
MES of ESQ privates and non-com-
missioned officers and six officers.
The machine gun company will be
increased to 172 men and six offic-
ers. The strength of the regiment
should be 1856 officers ana men.
There will also be large detach-
ment of the medical corps, which,
with the quartermaster's department
and other attachments. will bring
the permanent garrison of Fort
Douglas close to the 5000 mark.
