! WAR ECHOES HEARD
IN OGDEN.
The express companies In Ogden
today notified the banks that they
would not sell exchange on any Eu
j ropean cities They had rerelved in
BtruCtions from headquarters to dis
contlnue that branch ol their busi
ness This Is the first time In the
I history of the country when an order
I of that kind has been issued, and It
! is one sign of the nervous, apprehen
sivc state of all business having Bu
ropean connections
j 1 International relation, have been
almost broken off, oven between
countries that are not at all Involved
in the threat of a great war calamity
, Today the hit; ships of the German
I , 'line were ordered to remain In
li American ports and cancel their sail
ing dates. The fear that the mighty
conflict would be In full swing before
the trans-Atlantic liners could reach
their destinations and that the un
1 armed passenger bonis would be easy
j pmv for the warships of the enemy,
j caused the extraordinary action to be
taken. .
This is the first direct evidence ol
I the all-embracing effect the war
would have on the affairs of the na
tions of the world

WHY SANITATION IS NOT
WHAT IT SHOULD BE.
When Dr. T B Beatty. in address
I Ing a merlins in the Weber Club yes
terday afternoon, declared Ogden s
i health and sanitary conditions were
deplorable, he undoubtedly spoke the
I truth. With a liberal appropriation
k for the.' sanitary department of ihe
mL J city, he said he could make Ogden
I the most healthful place In the Uni
I ted States, and In that, we dare say.
he also was right.
Ogden has a climate nearly perfect
for health. The water supply cou'id
lie made abundant and pure With
sanitation added, no city could excel
j Ogden In health affording conditions.
But, as Dr. Beatty says, our sani
tarv laws cannot be enforced because
the city does not provide a sufficient
force to properly look after the health
of the community That condition
has prevailed ever since Ogden grew
beyond the proportions of a town and
became a city of large population
Our sanitary progress has not kept
I J pace with the city's growth.
With only one man In the field
an inspector, no wonder contagious
" diseases cannot be checked, when
ence they start to spread.
WHY JONES WAS NOT
ACCEPTED.
Thomas B. Jones was the second
largest contributor to Woodrow Wil
son's campaign fund and that may
be one reason why he was named by
the President as a member of federal
reserve board. That the President
blundered in attempting to reward
his friend with a high place in the
government was brought out by Sena
tor Reed of Missouri who, from his
place in the senate, poured forth the
following denunciation of Jones:
I "Those who perpetuate monopoly
are as guilty as those who create It.
"Those who honor monopolists give
aid and comfort to the enemies or
Democracy and the causes of human
liberty.
"Private monopoly is Indefensible.
The expression finds Its equivalent In
the phrase ' private monopoly Is crim
inal.'' Those who create, foster and
encourage that which 16 criminal are
themselves criminals.
"Private monopoly la indefensible
The proposition has Its corrollary In
the oft-repeated doctrine that thosi
who organize or operate monopoly
should be held personally responsible
and be tried and condemned as crim
inals. "Respectability constitutes no ex
; Y cuse for crime When education,
learning or great riches can be woen
into a cloak to cover corrupt, criminal
and unlawful practices, justice is
dead in the republic.
"When a man who pilfers from
hunger or steals a trifle to supply a
necessity is sent to Jail and those
who in the teeth of the law organize
commercial marauding expeditions
and plunder communities and entire
states not only go unwhlpped of Jus
tice but are crowned with offices and
showered with honor, an evil day has
arrived.
"I do not believe in sending the
man who steals a loaf of bread o
jail and exalting those who rob a
nation.
"The reason monopoly has not been
destroyed Is because monopolists
have been both powerful and respect
able.
If money can not buy respect. It
can purchase its counterfeit.
L 1 "The golden calf still command
adoration.
"Monopoly can not gain rights by
prescription, Long-continued rob
bery does not ripen into a privilege.
You cau not steal long' enough to
Lt. make larceny a vested right If you
could, thievery would be an estab
lished and flourishing business.
"A man who volunteers to serve on
board a pirate ship with an already
established criminal history may be
1 worse than one who enlists with the
original crew. The latter might have
U been deceived into the service. The
former knows the gory record of the
craft. He seeB the black flag at the
masthead. He steps upon decks slip
i- pery with the blood of the slaugh
tered. A gentleman of that kind
knows what he is doing,
"In the forum of morals there is no
statute of limitations
"The commonest plea of the scoun
drel Is tbat he was beguiled by oth
ere Adam indented that defense
It was not good when It was made
' and It is not (rood now
"The executioner who during WP
French revolution operated the guil
lotine could not shift his crime to
Untoine Louis, the inventor of the in
strument nor be heard to say that
prior to his employment the kn.r
had already gathered a great ban est
of innocent heads I
The man who helps to conduct the.
Harvester trust can not escape re
sponsiblllty by alleging tt hU
sponsor and friend created It before j
he took service."
PLACE THE SHIPPING
UNDER OUR FLAG.
President Wilson has made a most
important move in proceeding to call j
a conference to determine whether it
is possible to so amend our marine
law. as to allow the shipping of the
world to come under the American
Hon. all ship1!
nag as uru.,
Hying the stars and stripes during the
European conflict would be free from
attack and that would allow the com
raerce of the world to be carried on
without a war risk.
The one great object, from an
American standpoint, would be to pro
vide a safe outlet tor the exports ot
this country We have not the ships
to transport more than a small frac
tion of our goods and were other ves
sels to be driven from the seas, our
foreign trade would cease to exist
With a bumper whfl't and corn
crop, and all Europe forced to look
to the United States for those prod
nets there is a promise of high price
which will do much to counteract the
effect of a general financial upset,
but without ships to carry the grain
this country's great crops might be
left to mildew and rot.

CLOSING OF THE BIG
STOCK EXCHANGES
Never before were the stock ex
changes of the world closed as they
are today. The ur scare has par
alyzed the credit system of all coun
tries and there Is not a market that
can stand against the overwhelming
dumping of securities.
The New York Stock Exchange had
been laboring since the first of the
week to resist the tremendous offer
ing of stocks from Europe, but this
morning that institution was com
pelled to close to prevent panic
Some idea of the great strain un
der which the stock market has been
moving may be gainpd by the recital
of the fact that of Utah Copper alone
27,000 shares were sold yesterday
representing a value of nearly $1,500,
000 One hundred thousand sharee
ot Amalgamated Copper changed
hands, totaling SA0O0.OO0 Of North
ern Pacific 22.000 shares were traded
in, valued at $2,000,000; 123.000
shares of Union Pacific represented
$14,000,000; 250.000 shares of U. S.
Steel called for $13,000,000 Tne
shares sold and offered for sale ag
gregeted hundreds of millions of dol
lars. a sura large enough to stagger
the strongest financial institutions of
the world. That explains why the
New York Exchange could not con
tlnue to operate.
One of the brokerage firms, In a
special diBpatch. describes the situa
tion as follows.
"There is just one thing to say
about the situation. Conditions are
critical and thiB is no time to tem
porire or to pursue a vacillating pol
icy. Under ordinary conditions, it
perhapB is alwayB well to accept the
counsel of one's hopes hut during a
crisis prompt and decisive action is
in order and should be the watch
word. Money conditions are becom
ing acute and New York has been
forced to permit itself to be the
dumping ground for the world. In
such times as these Intrinsic merit
counts for little, for It is quite true
that standard securities, if judged by
the usual standards, are attractive for
Investment purposes, but Investment
purposes mean full cash payment, and
the majority of conservative houses
in the financial community are de
manding that the cash accompany
buying orders."
The closing of the exchanges will
ward off panic as holders of stocks
will be prevented from throwing them
on the market and those with mar
ginal stocks will be aaved from bank
ruptcy.
WAR IN EUROPE A
MIGHTY 8TRUGGLE.
What the war in Europe would
mean le thus set forth by the New
York American:
Since Bismarck edited the famous
Ems dispatch, which let looBe the
Franco-Prussian war. Europe has
faced no war cloud so black and om
inous as this which looms today.
A war between Austria-Hungary
and Servla alone would not disturb
the distribution of world power. Its
reeult would be knowB from the be
ginning. The weight of overwhelm
Ing numbers would prevail over hero
ic courage expressed in battalions
thin and few
But the war cloud of today looms
heavy against the glaut shadows ot
the two great groups of European
powers between Austria, Germany
and Italy of the triple alliance, and
Russia. France and England of the
triple entente.
The tramp of more than six million
soldiers behind the guns of these
great world powers makes humanitv
tremble before the colossal poasibili
tics of blood and slaughter which
such a conflict might luvolve Since
Napoleon and Frederick there has
been nothing like it.
jfiS&h ,n the &5reeive. seems to
be striking over Servia's head at the
Russian dominance of the Balkan

If Russia comes to the relief of Ser

In this vast grapple Russia and

SHOULD THE GOVERNMENT
BECOME A MEDICAL PARTISAN?
Kdltor Standard The announce
ment from Washington that the Fed
era) Health service has arranged to
dispense Its medical theor.PR on
typhoid and other prevalent disuses
to the public by means of "movies"
and "canned'; lectures, will raisp a
question in the minds ' of many peo
ple as to the wisdom, or Indeed, the
right of th(? government, to rmbark
on such an innovation. Treatment by
serums and vaccines Is br ing so in
sistently pressed upon the public by
the so-calleri "regular school of cure,
that many are beginning to seriously
question the governmental policy,
which apparently gives approval to
thi6 theory of a single school of medi
cine. The only persons who have charge
of and who dispense the favorable re
ports of the beneficial results from
serums and .accines, seem to be, the
doctors who are committed to this
theory, it will be remembered that
some, years ago our Federal Health
service hastily accepted, as a proved
fact, the claims of Professor Koch
that in tuberculin he had discovered
a beneflclent remedy for the treat
ment of tuberculosis, and this treat
ment was adopted in the Federal hos
pital at Fort Stanton Later Profes
bor Koch created consternation among
his medical brethren by frankly d
mltting his disappointment in the re
sults of the treatment Though tuber
culin has long since been discredited,
our Federal Health service persisted
In the treatment until three or four
eare ago, when it was discarded as
worthless.
During the past four years a contro
versy has raged among the high
priests of serum therapy In Europe,
in regard to the anti typhoid vaccine.
Metchnikoff strongly advocates Inocu
lation with the living bacilli and
holds In contempt those who believe
in using dead bacilli, which is the
approved treatment In our army and
navy Professor Besredkn.. of the Pas
teur institute, holds that his own ex
periments and those of Metchnikoff
thews that "the effect of dead bacilli
Is very uncertain " On the other
hand. Chantraesse and Vincent de
nounce the Metchnikoff method as
murderous Inoculation." holding that
its use on man is attended by grave
risks
Many careful physicians, as well as
Intelligent laymen, who have follow
ed the history of serum therapy in
recent years, entertain serious doubts
as to Its efficacy and harmlessness.
Very recently a woman and two chil
dren in Brooklyn, who, according to
Bsssssssssssi
the nurses and others acquainted with
their condition were apparently in
good health, and who were free from
any symptom of typho.d were induc
ed to submit to anti-typhoid inocula
tion The mother died, and the chil
dren, at last report, were at the gate
of death. Here certainly the treat
ment was no't preventive. Did the
Inoculation of supposed dead bacilli
have any effect in producing the dls
ease1 That is the question being ask
ed by many medical practitioners who
distrust the treatment
Again, it will be remembered that
some time ago, shortly after the Flex
ner serum for spinal meningitis bad
been so widely and favorably adver
tised, s leading regulnr physician in
the Cincinnati hospital, startled a
gathering of Ms medical conferees by
announcing that fourteen out of fif
teen children treated with the serum
had died as a result of the inocula
tion This doctor uufeelingry failed
to leave the customary loophole for
his colleagues to claim that the
deaths were occasioned by the dis
ease, and nol by the much advertised
cure, for he declared that he had
tested the serum on animals, and the-,
yiuuipuy uihu in precisely me Dam;
munner as the unfortunate children
In view of these things, many per
sona, even those Inclined to the prac
tlce of the old school, may question
the wisdom of the government In
lending its sanction to this theory,
which It will be noted ts favored only
by a portion of a single school or
medicine
