sinore and Monroe Will Have
to Be Rebuilt.

Salt Lake City, Oct. 3.-Earthquake
shocks have continued at intervals
during the last "a hours at Elsinore
and Monroe, 120 miles south of Salt
Lake, and at Richfeld. Five distinct
shocks were felt and severe tremor
completed the work of disaster in
wrecking of buildings that were DAM
aged Thursday. 1t is estimated that ~
buildings at Elsinore and Monroe will
have to be rebuilt.
At Richfeld a near panic ensued.
People ran from their houses, stores
and offices. Chimneys were thrown
down, windows were broken and
cracks appeared in several buildings.
One man was injured by falling brick.
At Elsinore two chimneys at the
sugar factory were toppled over.
Great White Seams in Mountains.
Great white seams have been left
in the nearby mountains by the frac-
tured segments torn away from the
high cliffs and flung in huge landslides
to the canyon bottoms. All persons
have been warned to keep out of the
canyons.
Streams from the mountains are
said to be running blood red with
oxides shaken from assures by the
successive quakes, and at Monroe the
hot springs sent forth water almost
blood red. When the mountains to
the east were shaken up great rocks
rolled down their sides. Reports are
to the effect that boulders weighing
many tons bounded down the steep
sides of Monroe canyon, causing a
landslide.
Prof. Fred J. Pack Of the Univer-
sity of Utah arrived at Elsinore to
study the earthquake conditions. He
could not be located following the
latest shock, and it is believed he is
in Monroe canyon surveying the ef-
fects of the shocks there.
Illinois Town Gets Tremor.
Harrisburg, H., Oct. 3.-Two dis

a slight earthquake, were felt here at
three o'clock in the morning. Houses
were shaken and sleepers aroused,
causing considerable alarm but no
damage has been reported.
Quakes in Nicaragua.
San Juan Del Sur, Nicaragua, Oct.
3.-Two earthquakes were felt here
at 4:55 o'clock, Eastern standard
time. No damage has been reported.

a WHY CONGRESSMAN.

In the Congressional Directo-
ny there is an interesting study
of human nature concealed.
Concealed because nobody ev-
er reads the Congressional Di-
rectory unless a senator or rep
resentative dies and a sketch of
his life is required quickly for
obituary purposes, When Repre-
sentative Park of the Second
Georgia district dies the sketch
er will not be helped much by
reference to the directory.
Prank Park, Democrat, Syl-
yester"-that is all there is a.
bout him. That could be ex-
banded into probably 80 to 40
times the number of words, but
the "soul of wit" has concen-
trated itself in that biographical
sketch. 1t is witty. The joke is
not on Congressman Park; rath-
er it is a sly, subtle, gentle jab
as some other brethren who are
inundated in cold type in the
pages of that directory.
The new, very newest, mem
Der, by contrast, have from 300
to 500 words telling who they
are and what they have been
and where they we're born and
all about them. The gentleman
from the Second of Georgia set
down his life in his name and
two more words-and the name
has no middle initial. 1t is the
shortest sketch in the whole
list of senator's and congress
men of all the states.
And the great point in this
is: The senators and represen-
tatives themselves write these
sketches for the directory.

WOULD PUT SPIDER TO WORK

Induce Insect to Spin Material

The worm is %proYerbially the last
Of created things to turn against
the tyranny Of those who seek to
e1erce it, and the silkworm is evi-
IDENTIFY no exception to the rule, for
it has for ages been patiently labor
ing to crafty human vanity. Not
so the spider, however, whose beau
tiful silk has not yet been similarly
applied, simply because that willy in
sect refuses to work TO order.
But a determined onslaught upon
his pride and prejudices has been
made in Madagascar, where a regu-
lar factory has been started to make
silk dresses from spider web. The
old difficulty has still to be faced,
however, and time alone will show
whether man or the spider is to be
the victor.
The spiders, which spin luxuri-
ously in their native groves, sulk or
fight OF devour their young or 9th
erwise act up when brought to the
factory, but they will not work ex-
ccpt occasionally, when the mood
happens to strike them. Then they
sometimes spin for days at a time
and die of oyerwork.
Their habits and customs are be-
ing carefully studied.-Philadel-

tention of toe country. The
party has betrayed the people
and is so deeply concerned about
its own selfish designs and mis-
cradle squabbles that it has not
the grace to show the least sign
of penitence.
The Administration wisely,
prudently and with great exact
.Itude following the policies of
Mr.. Wilson, has thus far won
general appreciation. 1t must be-
fore long declare its policies in
respect to matters of great ma
tional and international moment.
But the public is fair-minded
and forbearing; it awaits the
Administrators decisions in
the hope and with a reasonable
expectation that they will be
sound and satisfactory. The Re-
publican Congress does nothing.
The party platform promised
"a policy of rigid economy" It
promised a simplifcation of the
tax laws. 1t has passed a fraud
ulent emergency tariff bill. It.
has not made lighter the bur
dens of the people.
There is no real indication
that it intends to make them
lighter. There has been a pre-
tense at a hearing upon a revi-
sion of the tax laws, but the
public has heard very little a.
bout it. 1t is even said in Wash
.ington that the farmers
group will prevent the removal
of the excess profits tax which
both parties have promised and
the country demands. The de-
testable partisanship of the SEN
ate leaders kept the United
States out of the international
compact for peace and now it is
the Senate that insists upon
adding a hundred millions to
the naval expenditure approved.
by the House. There is a GER
tain depraved consistency in this
position, everybody will admit,
but the country is in no mood to
be taxed a billion for war pur-
poses.
There could be no healthier
sign of national sound sense
and international goodwill than
a reduction of expenditure for
ornaments. The country is not
in danger of attack. There is no
known reason why the President
even without the urging of Con-
gress, should not call a confer
ence for the limitation of arma-
ments. The holding of such a
conference would be of i'm
measurable service in stabiliz-
ing the economic conditions of
the world. Such a measure of
economy would vastly help the.
credit of the debtor nations. 1t
would facilitate the r~efunding
of the obligations of the Allies
to the United States. 1t would
improve the outlook for placing
the German reparation bonds.
But there is no hint of the call
ing of such a conference and e.
ven the House proposes an an
nual naval expenditure three or
four times greater than before
the war, and to this sum the
Senate adds a hundred millions.

THE REPUBLICAN FAILURE.

If the Republican Party should
forget politics it would be a
very respectable organization.
If it could put aside its death
less greed for power it would
deserve praise. If it could rid
itself of the delusion that it is
a party of the elect, that it is
better than any other party, es-
pecially the Democratic Party,
it would be somewhat more
worthy of respect. If its leaders
had principles and conscience
and enough common honesty to
attempt in good faith, when they
are in power, to keep promises
they have made to the people,
the party would enjoy a larger
measure of public confidence.

PRISON POPULATION DOWN

Chicago. March ia.-Prison popula-

United States has decreased ia per
cen. in the past six years. according
to reports collected by Tho Associated
Press from state penitcntiarics in Is

The decrease amounted to c.1eo pri-

ton OF tho rs states in 1914 was 2l,9tI.

Of tho section is equivalent to more

not uniform thruout the territory. Six
states had tho reverse to show, re-
porting au increase, while ono pro-
sented exactly the same figures. The

The ad vance in the six states
amounted to s5t prisoners while the
