Hl Salt Lake, you see, Is not selfish Hj enough to take every game. Hj For obvious reasons, Brother Roberts would much rather be a Solomon than a H Moses. H' 1 - H' Among the leading American exhibits H; at the St. Louis Fair is a strike of 500 painters. Hr As an educator, however, Apostle Hh Grant has a decided preference for H evening-schools. , It is now settled that a Senate sub committee will come to Utah, unless Mr. Van Cott says that it must not. Hj Judge Powers, of course, took the Hj; trouble to go over to the House side o the capitol and pick out a scat over there. Among the tilings favorable to the church tljat the sub-committee will ! hear will bo the music of the Taber naclo organ. ( proses Thatcher, It appears, is the Hj most distinguished man in his church, being tho only one among the older j members who has no ecclesiastical j As the Democrats feel that they could ji not in a contest secure any Judgeships , in this district, they think it would bo H,J only fair to compromise, taking two j and generously giving two. Hj There is an excellent chance for Scna- H tor Rawlins and Mr. Thatcher to get J together again, on the proposition of the j latter that the popularity of the former 1 was a cause of his election. I The dispatch which tells of Russia's i 1 borrowing S1GO.000.000 at 5 per cent, the 1 lenders paying 9S, shows miserable credit. Contrasted with the United u States financial operations in Issuing 2 per cents at a premium (U. S. 2s are j quoted at 105), the Russian borrowing , looks like bankruptcy. This financial I operation is also a bitter commentary on the boastful vaunt put forth some time ago that Russia would not need to I borrow any money for the prosecution of this war. It Is excellent to see that the subur ban trolley road project is not dead, , nor yet quite asleep. The move to in ( crease the capital stock of the company 1 that proposes to build the lino, how ever, seems excessive; two million dol lars wjll be too much capitalization, j unless the system is to be far more ! extensive than hitherto laid out. ' But ',' the line to be built is the main thing p desirable; It is to be hoped that the move means Its immediate taking up and pushing to an early completion. Hi The San Domingan sugar planters Hl r io test against the imposition of an cx j port duty on sugar, resting their case ' 'on the agreement of last year that there should be' no such duty imposed for twenty years. But no agreement can withhold the rapacity of the piratical government established iu that unsettled country from time to time. Besides, tho horrors and the H. fighting that have been prevalent there Hl' the past year have been ample to make H the survivors think that "the twenty H years have gone by. l ,. R( The method of paying the forty mll Hu Hon dollars to the French canal com Hp pany for their property and franchises Hi on the Isthmus of Panama, is the natu Hi ral one, and Is easily carried out. The Hi payment Is made in Paris, on order, and Hj then a draft is drawn on the U. S. K Treasury for the amount. Immediately H following this transaction will be the H payment of ten million dollars to Pana B I ma for the concession of the canal atrip HJ , and zone on each Bide of it, and the Hf undisputed sway over the region ncccs Hl eary for tho construction of the canal. Hj We presume that no one has any other Hjl idea than that tho Panama republic H must come almost at onco udder the Jurisdiction and sovereignty of the H( , United States; for it would bo absurd H to entrust such vast interests as those H Involved in the protection of the canal H to a feeble folk such as those of the H. new Isthmian republic. The canal, as well as nil responsibilities for it and Us thorough protection and control, will always be the business of the United States. THE WATER DEVELOPMENTS. Professor George L. Swendsen is busy in resumption of his work on the en gineering problems connected with the Utah Lake improvement. A corps of eight men, under charge of A. H. Hor ton, has just been dispatched to the lake, to push the Investigations, and the surveys necessary to begin the actual work of construction. The engineers have very definite Ideas on what should be done, and tho way of doing it; but tho carrying out of these must wait the action of the water users and land own ers in getting up their security and pledge for the repayment of the money, their applications for water over and nbovo the amount reserved as primary rights, and the formal petition to the Government to go on with the work. But tho movement is by no means confined tn tho Utah Lake proposition; it embraces tho whole of the general scheme of water Improvement which was so thoroughly and ably presented to the Secretary of the Interior by State En gineer Doremus, from the Arid Land Reclamation Fund Commission. That embraced alBO the improvement of Bear Lake, the Bear River, and the region tributary thereto, both In Utah and In Idaho. To puh on the work of sur- vcys and preparatory details, Mr. "W. P. j Hardesty, an accomplished-hydraulic engineer, has been detailed to attend to thin Tlonv T5vr n.ivt of tllQ KCneral I plan, and there is no doubt but that it will be done thoroughly and well. The Duchesne river portion oe the general plan develops unexpected strength. Tho investigations of this stream by Mr. Tanner, just completed, show a low-water flow of 240 second foot, with an unlimited increase in limes of high water and floods. This immense flow is exactly the amount re served by the four canal companies of this valley for their primary rights. It is evident, unless the cost of diverting the Duchesne to the Utah Lake water shed should prove altogether more cost ly than any one anticipates, that this portion of the improvement will be a very Important one, and of high value In reinforcing the water supply. The investigations of the Ogden and the Weber rivers, whose flow was also included in the general scheme, have not yet been formally Gntered upon, but will be taken ud, no doubt, in due sea son, and pushed with the energy and skill that have characterized all theso operations thus far. The engineers have In fact kept far ahead of the peo ple in all this matter, and can easily do so In the future. The people must hustle to keep up with them, and pre vent them being Idle. THE SYMPATHETIC STRIKE. It is unfortunate that whenever any great enterprise Is on, matters are so shaped that a strike of more or less violence among tho workmen Is brought about. The expected has happened In this respect at St. Louis, a small squad of painters demanding double time and on Its being refused, flvo hundred other painters struck In sympathy. Of all forms of strike, this sympa thetic strike 1b the most detestable. The employer may bo doing everything that in him lies to do tho fair thing? his men may be perfectly content, and yet thoy will strike because some other employees may have a grievance against some other employer. It is a modern application of the old idea of retaliation practiced by the American savages, that because some whito man has wronged them they would kill tho first white they could find. Terence V. Powderly has just made a strong talk against strikes of all kinds, and against lock-outs, charac terizing both as brutal and barbarous. Both, in his judgment, are relics of an age of low civilization, and should bo abandoned for settlements that will bo more In accord with modern enlighten ment. It Is a good thought, and comlns from Mr. Powderly, a proved and firm friend of labor, it ought not to fail of having a profound effect for good. The Senate Committee on Privileges and Elections has directed its chair man, Mr. Burrows, to ask tho Senate's authorization for it to sit during the recess. This will without doubt be voted, and also the liberty to sit at any place the committee may think best for the pursuance of the Smoot investiga tion, which is tho occasion for the re quest. This is generally supposed to mean that the committee will visit Utah, and have hero such sittings as may be deemed fruitful in the inquiries It has in hand. Undoubtedly, here la the place for tho committee to sit; hero can be taken a mara of testimony on the points under fire that will be ab solutely conclusive upon them. We are glad to see that tho prospect to, extend the paving of State street southward Is still alive, and that the City Engineer has mado reasonable estimates for connecting tho paving a3 It is proposed to bo extended, with the macadamized State road. This should be done with as little delay a3 possible; In fact, It ought to have been done long ago; for the present situation gives the farmers a good right to complain and to say that In a muddy time the worst roads they find arc after they get inside the city limits, and it is a shame that any one could, say that with any show of justification for the reproach. We are glad to sco that the County Commissioners have passed an ordi nance providing for the planting of trees along the county roads. The fjees are to be one foot from the gutter, and two feet on eaoh side of tho road Is reserved for the planting of the trees. Owners of trec3 which move them to correspond with these requirements, will be paid twenty-five cents for each tree when it reaches tho age of four 3-cars. It is a good and wise move; it will result, if persisted in, as we trust It may be, In the permanent beautify ing of this valley, and the addition of a vast tree wealth to our resources, especially if good species aro selected and they are properly cared for. MUST ENFORCE QUARANTINE. It seems astounding that tho turbu lent element in Carbon county cannot be made to understand that their breaking of smallpox quarantine regu lations is the very worst thing that they can possibly do, both on general princi ples and for their caustr. No one, no matter how fervont a friend of labor or of tho strikers' cau3e he may be, wants to be exposed to smallpox on account of It; no ono can In the least Justify tho acts which aro liable to spread this terrible scourge broad cast. By so much as they persist In disregarding or " trifling1 with the quarantine regulations, and making that disregard a part of their cause, their case Is a lost one from that mo ment. The people cannot in any way palliato or suffer tho breach of tho law and as sault upon the public safety which is involved in these repeated breaches of quarantine. No support whatever can bo had for such conduct. On the con trary, tho people must soon look upon tho strikers and all concerned with them with utter loathing, If they arc to be menaced with this scourge on ac count of the willful and unruly acts of the strikers and their sympathizers. It does not Jn tho least help matters for thoso wl'o arc doing this dangerous work to say that tliey know the laws must be respected. If they know this, they should respect the laws, and not trample upon them. Tho aot should correspond with the sentiment; the lawn must bo respected in act as well as In word. The officials in Carbon county appear to be well ablo to cope with tho law-breakeis, and thry must, for their own sakes as well as for tho safety of thee whole Stale, enforce with unrelenting vigor the quarantine regu lations, nnd deal severely with all who undertake to set them at naught. TIME FOR MORE EXCLUSION. Another unpleasant feature of tho immigration from Hungary, apart from the undesirable nature of tho immigra tion itself, is the manner in which it Is now being conducted and supervised. Heretofore, Hungarians have to some extent como over with, a view to re maining, and some of them have in vested their earnings here, nnd have made this their adopted country. Now, however, as reported by Frank Dyer Chester, U. S. Consul at Budapest, the emigration laws of Hungary, binding on tho Magyass and Croatlana, tho emigra tion must only be temporary; "the Slov aks usually emigrato after marriage, but do not always send for their wives and children, who, as with the Magyars, often recall them from prosperous em ployment to penurious country life, and return to old habits in tho land of their nativity." Tho emigrants from Hungary are now impressed with the fact and legal re quirement that their absence must only be temporary; that they must retain their Hungarian citizenship and domi cile, and remit their earnings regular ly to their native places, Instead of In vesting them in American business or land. It is tho expectation of the Hun garian authorities to keep track of these immigrants while they are in this coun try, through clergymen, newspaper men of their nationality and others, and thus hold them under tutelage. All the salaried Consuls of Austria-Hungary In the United States aro now Hungarians or Croatians, says Mr. Chester. We submit that this sort of thing is not one whit hotter than the Chinese system of immigration In the old ante exclusion days, with the Six Companies and contacts of return. And as the United States broke up that old skin game operation, so St ought to break up this revival of It by the Hungarians. The law now excludes contract labor ers; the would-be immigrant who has his place of labor awaiting him and his employers known, is turned back. But tho man who comes without knowing where he is to get work, and may be a burden on the community, both for sup port if he falls ill and in tho with drawal of money if he Is robust and gets work, is allowed to come In If he can show a small amount of money, which may be advanced by the shipping agencies, to be handed back at the office up town, and not In fact bo his at all. Surely It is time to have a Hungarian exclusion act, as well as one against the Chinese. Professor Muensterberg's notion that tho Monroo doctrine is a mere sen timent, which it Is against the ma terial interests of this country to keep up, and which it will abandon as a "caprice," shows that tho eminent Ger 'man (who has been long enough In the United States to know better) la badly off his bast. He has evidently been carried away by tho folly of antl-im-perlallsm, which assumes that in re taining tho Philippines we surrender tho principle on which tho Monroe doctrine Is founded. If tho European powers mako the same mistake, and proceed on tho theory that Professor Muenstorberg is correct, they will have a bad awakenlngg some fine morning. They had better keeD their hands off while they ar off, and not put them In the way of the eagle's claws. SITTING ON TACKS. a From tlio Nov York Press. Apropos of the objection of tho Mose ley educational committee to the pre ponderance of female teachers in our public schools: A fair young woman with a primary class of fifty-seven boys and girls on her hands said to me: "Two of my boys aro simply horrible.
