MATTER AT THE POSTOFFICE UNDER THE ACT OF MARCH 3, I87S AT SHOULD BE MADE PUBLIC STEPS taken to deny the people information concerning conduct of their affairs are not in the direction of the fair play policy that should prompt actions of those in either legislative or administrative charge of the publics business. This is true even though the step is apparently taken in the name of economy. It is in reality a backward step and should be frowned upon by all. Utah is endeavoring to come out of the political coma in which it has politically traveled for many years as the result of its old time convention system of selecting candidates for public office. Any move to otherwise keep the peo- - HELPER I (By REAL STATESMANSHIP EXPRESSIONS concerning prospective action of those in control of the state .legislature are cheering. It is encouraging to know that the temper of our lawmakers is to be that of working to the best interests of all the state, not in behalf of any particular faction or groups to the injury of the balance of the state. The policy of conducting legislative affairs in Utah in behalf of the general public has become almost a lost art, if the writer is any judge of matters of that nature. It is to be hoped that those directing the legislation will pursue a consistent policy of fair play to all. The scars which have been created by past lack of vision of those who dominated affairs previously should not be used as a measuring stick by which to offset former short-sighte- d actions. An equitably balanced program is what is necessary for Utah business, labor, agriculture and industry being all given their just portion of consideration. Such a program is of the statesmanship type such as Utah has been in need of many years. M. H.

' H An interesting service by the local railroad was brought to light last week. A Salt Lake paper early in the week carried an item mentioning the fact that some one had observed trainmen throwing out scraps from their lunch to feed birds during the big snow. Locally some eight or ten deer were found marooned in a pocket in the hills without means of obtaining food. Members of the local Fish and Game Protective association procured food and attempted to take it to the deer by auto but found that the road would not permit them to get to he animals which were near Nolan. An appeal to the trainmaster at Helper resulted in the feed being placed aboard the snowplow which was being sent to Scofield and at the point where the deer were trapped loaded and the bales of hay cut and the train was stopped, the feed undistributed by the train crew so that the deer could easily obtain the food.

Many people have received relief some worthily some unworthily. But when it comes to the deaf they are told that something should be done about it, but those who tell it straightway forget about it. Of all dependable persons that I know, the deaf are the most neglected. Anyone would help a blind person would talk to them, assist them in try any way possible, and generally to make their life brighter, as they should but not with the deaf. They hear nothing of your music or any sounds which could make life more cheerful; if you are talking and joking their presence, they look foolish and get nothing out of it, even if you attempt to explain, (only one person in a hundred would), and the joke is lost.
