Show THE SALT LAKETIMES. FRIDAY, JUNE 27, 189(? more especially ou tlte Fourth of July. Some arrangements should be immedi-ately made to provide accommodations for these coming visitors. The cham-ber of commerce should establish a bureau for the purpose of registering the namos of all parties having rooms to rent, and when that is done every person who can accommodate any visit-ors should at once notify the bureau. That there will be a very large num-ber of people in attendance at the Ogden carnival there is no question. It is safe to say that at least three-- , fourths of the people who attend the " tarnival will visit Salt Lake City, and THE SALT LAKE TIMES, By T. A. DAVIS.

It has already been discovered by many patronesses of the Methodist orphanages and other homes for destitute colored children that a bright boy is as useful about the house as any girl. Not all the boys or girls can go into trades, and per-haps there are no happier relations be-tween employers and employed than exist between a trusty butler or waiter of American-Africa- n descent and the family whose interests he makes his own. In the paucity of white American sup-ply, when American brightness and adaptiveness is so much needed, it should not be overlooked that it is ft great waste of good material when a boy is allowed to pick up his living as a hanger on for odd jobs in the markets, or odd jobs any-where. Ho had better be qualifying either in "buttons" and apron, or white jacket in house service, to grow up into the valued and trusted attendant that everybody knows is in demand.

You'll sea Mm sit an' chaw an' spil And saw upon the lines, Els Jolly face so red with pride It reg'lar glows and shines; Them bosses step so gay an' high, An' tear along at soch a gait, Tou'd scurcely think their owner'd wait An' cry: 'Hullo, j Git in an' hev a lift!" T see ol' Brown a saggin' down On one e'end o' the seat, An' leaning aldeways now 'n' ag'in To watch 'em pick their feet, You'd think: "Hore comes a rooral swell." But myl How quick your mind 'ud flop W'en deakin'd make them hosses stop i An' yell: "Hullo, Climb in an' her a lift I" They's folks who ride in all their pride In Fortune's rig on life's highway; . tls folks who trudge along Ken see 'em drive past every day.

THE NKW NAVY. The new government cruiser Phila-delphia on Tuesday was given a test of speed. Slio behaved' admirably, and made over twenty kuots an hour. This speed plaees her among the fastest war vessels. The United States navy at last is becoming a credit to the country. The revival of the navy was inaugur-ated by Secretary Whitney under the Cleveland administration, and Mr. Whitney is entitled to great credit for the good work he accomplished during his term of ollice. Tho republicans have kept up tho improvements, but not at such a rate as tho people would like to sec. Secretary Tracy, how-ever, is not to. blame for this.. The fault lies with congress, which does not sceni inclined to make au appropriation largo enough to carry out the suggestion of Secretary Tracy. The appropriation will amount to about $15,223,000, and will bo expended in tho construction of three battle ships, an armored cruiser, a torpedo cruiser aud a torpedo boat. This amount is far short of what was expected by Secretary Tracy, who re-commended the construction of eight heavy battle ships, live torpedo boats, two armored harbor defense boats and three gunboats. Why congress hesitates about building up our navy more rap-idly is something tho people do not comprehend. There is plenty of money for such purpose, and there is a popu-lar demand that our navy be. made equal to any in the world. ARRIVALS AND CLOSE OF MALLS.

Condition of the Ohio Shoemakers. In 1887 shoe fitters were indeed a happy and fortunate lot of girls. In busy seasons they made $1.00 per day; even in dull seasons their average was rarely less than 50 cents per day. This was due to the organization of the shoe trade in a union, whose scale of prices was fixed by arbitration. The board of arbitrators was composed of one member selected by the firm, one by the girls, and the other chosen by these two. But since the break up of their organization, which occurred early in 1888, the wages have been steadily going down. The employer fixes the price of wages, and the introduction of new systems and new machines has a tendency to reduce the wages. Weekly wages have super-seded the piece system, children and un-skilled persons are employed, whom the old hands are required to teach, and the wages are so reduced that the girls are ashamed to admit the amount of the re-duction. It is estimated that they are not more than half what they were be-fore. Very little effort is being mude toward reorganization, and great discon-tent prevails. Cincinnati Enquirer.

The Fourth of J uly demonstration in Salt Lake promises to be a grand suc-cess in every particular. An excellent programme has been arranged for the day. One of the leading features will be the parade, in which the business men and trades' unions will participate. The workingmen propose to turn out in large numbers. In the evening the py-rotechnic display will ho the finest exhibition of fireworks ever seen in the west. In this connection the following from the New York Sun will interest our readers: A firm manufacturing" fireworks received a big order from the authorities at Salt Lake City a short time ago. It was the largest order that has ever been given bo far West. The dis-play will take place on the coming Fourth, and the expenses will be borne by Mormons and Gentiles alike. One of the set pieces will be over 150 feet long, aud will represent in fiery outlines some of the fine mountain scenery In the vicinity of Salt Lake City. The Mormons and Gentiles have been fighting bitterly at the polls there lately, and it is intended to have a sort of peace jubilee on Independence day. The new mayor is a Gentile, and the fireworks were shipped to hlin. In his order he stipu-lated that "nothing of, a religious character" should be sent in the Bet pieces. In addition to the parade and the fireworks, there will be a hundred other attractive features which will make tho day one of genuine pleasure. The committee of arrangements has spared neither time nor money to make the coming Fourth of July celebration the most enthusiastic and enjoyable event of the kind in the history of Salt Lake. There will be an immense crowd of vis-itors in attendance, and we have every reason to believe that they will be re-paid for spending the day in Salt Lake. To Elevate Greek Women. A very interesting petition has recent-ly been submitted by the women of Greece to the government asking that better educational opportunities be given to the girls, and some attempt be made toward the elevation of women. It seems that during the quarter of a century comprising the present king's reign schools and gymnasia for boys have been founded, naval and military acad-emies been opened free of charge, and opportunities arranged by which the son of the artisan and shepherd, born of ig-norant peasant parents, may yet become statesmen, diplomates, soldiers and mer-chants. The burden of the petition, which has 2,830 signatures, is that there may be founded law lyceums, a prac-tical and fine arts school, where poor girls may have crafts and professions suitable for women, whereby they may gain a livelihood and secure for them-selves respectable and independent sup-port. The interest in this appeal cen-ters in the fact that it is the first peti-tion of the kind ever made by Grecian women to the ministers of state. Ex-change.

Did It, Ail uuuitelf. The late Dr.' Cook, of Haddington, after assisting the late Dr. Forsyth, of Morham, at a service, repaired as usual to the manse. While in the enjoyment of a little social intercourse the minister of Morham which, by the way, is ono of the smallest parishes in Scotland quietly remarked to his brother divine: "Doctor, yon must be a very popular man in the parish." "Ay," replied tho doctor, "how's that?" "Why," rejoined the other, "our usual collection is three-pence, but today it is ninepencel" "Oh, is that all?" said Dr. Cook; "then wae'a me for my popularity, for I put in the extra sixpence myself !"

MARX ANDERSON'S STEP-FATHE-Since Mary Anderson's marriage a great many papers have taken occasion to give Dr. Hamilton Griffin some sharp little stabs. One paper remarks that as Mary now has a husband to look after her, Dr. Griffin is to return to Kentucky and tho publio will lose sight of him; another says Dr. Griffin's occu-pation liko that of Othollo is gone; and so on. Why Mary Anderson's step-father should be subjected to any such treatment is something we cannot un-derstand. For years certain newspa-pers have attempted to ridicule him and to convey ' tho impression that he was simply an annoy-ance and a burden to the' great actress. The fact is that Mary Anderson owes much to her step-fathe- When it was discovered that she pos-sessed histrionic talent, itwasDr.Gritlin who determined that she should go upon the stage. She was a mere child, and Griflin decided to act as her man-ager and guardian and pilot her safely through the dangerous pathway of the stage until she should reach that emi-nence where she would no longer need his assistance. Ho faithfully d his duty and paid no atten-tion to tho cruel thrusts of would-b- e wits of the press. Ho has reaped his reward linuncially it is true, but also in other ways. Ho has seen Mary Auderson grow from obscurity to world-wid- e fame, lrom alUuenue to poverty, from innocent childhood to pure womanhood and wife-hood, lie has seen her pass through a career filled with temptations without oue breath of suspicion upon her char-acter. All this would have been reward onough for his care aud attention, oven if lie had never received a dollar of Mary Anderson's income, lint as he was her business manager as well as her guardian ho had a right to be financially recompensed. That his services aud atherly attentions have been appro cia ted by Mary Anderson is clearly proven by the fact t hat she has never said a word in opposition to Dr. Griflin's manage-ment of her affairs. Every Liberal voter should attend the conventions tomorrow evening to nominate candidates for the board of education. New subscribers to The Times con-tinue to roll in at a very healthy rate. Twenty-nin- e new subscribers were added to our list since yesterday. P. S. Keep your eye on The Times. Dr. Condon, the federal census su-perintendent, gives the census of Salt Lake at 49,973. As there have been quite a number of people missed in the count, it is safe to say that our popula-tion is about 51,000. We are gettiug to be quite a city. By tho next census we shall have at least 150,000 people. Denver's populafpn is given out by tho assistant to the census supervisor as HW.OOO. The newspapers charge that tho count has been a miserable failure. Even 132,000 is not as many as the people claimed. The majority of the esti-mates have been placed at 150,000. As a matter of fact, Denver has about 125,000 people. GEMS OF THOUGHT. There is a time tot everything, and the secret of success In life lies in doing things at just the right moment. It is the man who determines the dig-nity of the occupation; not the occupa-tion that measures the dignity of the man. It is not calculable what may be ac-complished in everything in life by mod-erate beginnings aud judicious pers verance. Never do anything which if you should see in another you should count a jus occasion to despise him for, or to tliinj any way more meanly of him. . It is idleness that creates impossibili-ties, and where men caro not to do a thing, they shelter themselves under a persuasion that it cannot be done. Habit in a child is at first like a web; if neglected, it becomes a thread of twine; nest a cord or rope; finally, a cable, and then who can break it? It is great prudence to gain as many friends as we honestly can, " especially when it can be done at so easy a rate as a good word; it is a great folly to make an enemy by ill words. Without the friendly exchange of kindly words and deeds, without the sunshine of loving looks and smiles of welcome and encouragement, a house may be a habitation, bnt never truly a home. Blessed is that man who, to his age, has preserved the freshness, the simpli-city and the purity of youth. If upon earth there is one sight more refreshing than another, it is the beholding of u ood, great man. Montreal Star, Mr. Edward Dickinson, . who was recently retired from the Urion Pacific, did not have long to wait for another position. Ho has accepted a superin-tendenc- y of the h. & O., ' with head-quarters at Chicago. His jurisdiction covers 630 miles of road. His many friends are glad to learn that his ac-knowledged ability as a railroad man has been recognized by such a great company as the B. & O.
