In some respects this city lutrays all the symptoms of a back n u in her.

Springville has hud fewer appropriations from the County Court nnd more uniformly uni-formly bad roiidithnn any other locality in the county. This sort of thing niunt not continue.

And that reminds us; This event will probably call out one of the lurgest assemblages of the year or at any rate it bhould if the people take a proper interest in education. Now where in all this town is an assembly room to seat one-half of them comfortably? com-fortably? This question would be dead ea?y if this city had the Opera house it should have. l ears and years ago when "news was scarce" some man with no foresight at all coiiie Hit expression, "The health of the people is generally gotd." lie was probably a country correspondent to a rural weeklv. hven to this day, nine out often country correspondents lubricnte their thinkers by loading th machine with material for this erudite expression. With "The health of the people is generally good" safely on paper, they pro ceed io chronicio epidemics, accidents, deaths, births and marriages galore. The genius who will succeed in varying the expression, or the correspondent who will commence H news letter without it has a great future before hira. Springville should have a free reading room. The Independent Inde-pendent will assist such a project pro-ject by donating every day a bundle of exchanges and periodicals, peri-odicals, and will also agree to send its quota of "constant readers." A room for such a purpose would need to be large and roomy, as regards floor space, in order that people on business could have space in which to walk around the feet of our delegation. As soon as the weather gets w armer we intend in-tend moving ihe print shop out on the roof and give up the lower floor to Ihe people who. sit ou our chairs and let the fire go out. This office might , then le h good location for flit reuding room. . ' " rwss asd xj.y. A year or two ago when tlu-l Turks were making life fr tliej Armenians joiiiething to be well i rid of, the alleged Christian! people of this land would have1 liad the United States rush ini" a war wuli lurkey. l hey thought a few lessons written in Turkish blood would he no more than u Christian duly. At the most only a' few thousands of Armenians went to a fate which they did much to hung upon themselves. At a later day. not more than n euuple of months ago, the Spaniards, u Christian nation, had moreeded in starving to death and wantonly murdering numbers of peic-ful inolfVnsi ve Cul mil people amounting to upwards of 200,000. Thete people were not taken red-handed red-handed in the act of war, but were butchered wh.-n they ran out of their burning houses. Thwse who were uiifortuna'c enough to survive the assaults of the soldiery were horded together to-gether in villages and towns where famine and disease soon did their -vork. There are still some hundred thousands of these poor folks, and the number is growing less each hour. 1 n six months more the work will be complete, and the greater part of tho Cuban people will be in their graves, or in the fence comers and cine nruKfs wnere tliey crawled to die. Very few collections been taken up, and very meetings have been hel. nave have few . at which to recount the sufferings of the Cuban pacificos. No Christian irrigation meetings have bfcen held at which to call Uncle Sam cowardly and pulilaninous because he will not interfere. Rather li is urired to stay his hand because Spain is the weaker party. Is it because Spain is n Christina nation that it is right for her to murder and starve to death the Christian pacificos of Cuba? If Spain wire Mohammedan, Moham-medan, as was Turkey, a roar might be mado. The money power gets the credit for compelling the administration ad-ministration at Washington to go slow m its action. What of the Christian churches, and their inactivity? If they have any power nnd influence at all in this country are they not tacitly countenancing these massacres in Cuba by remaining silent r Very few protests at the present state of affairs come fiom the churches, and this is hard to explain. A hard prob I . I m lem io soive is wnv, ll it whs right tnat Uncle Sam should interfere to save a people on the other side of the globe and between be-tween whom and our people there existed only a magnified Christian affinity, is it not proper that he tdiould do something some-thing for u people who are our neighbors, and in their appreciation appre-ciation and love of liberty are almost akin to us? Can it bo possible that the missing element of force is religious fanaticism? It looks verv much like it. Editor Howard, of the Salina Press, and Editor Crosby, of the Richfield Censor, will exchange pulpits for a couple of weeks when the balmy spring time dries up the Sevier valley mud. This exchange idea strikes us as being a most excellent one, and we concluded to adopt it, giving due credit, as it seems impossible im-possible to "swipe" it. Accordingly, Accord-ingly, we have written to James Gordon Bennett, of the New York Herald, suggesting un ex change for a month, as it would scarce bo worth the while of either to make it a shorter period. We feel that it would be a good change for both Mr. Bennett and our.elf. Mr. Bennett, after a month at the lelm of The Independent, making miscroscopical searches for a source of income, would appreciate his own comfortable berth and save his money.

County Fair Echoes. The Enquirer of l'rovo and the Snrlngvllle Independent are making some severe comments about the management or the fuuds of t he late county fair, and there are people in this vicinity also who would like very much to see a report of how the fin ances of this defunct institution were appropriated. Trovo certainly did not crown herself with glory in managing this little affair last year and unless she does better next time, we shall side in with the Springville Independent and advocate having the fair at Goshen. Potidiown, Cedar Fort, or any other "scrub" town in preference prefer-ence to our old sleepy county seat. American Fork World. The l'rovo Enquirer and Springville Independent are "kicking" considerable consider-able about the management of the late County Fair held in l'rovo. Wc have no complaint to make only that we gave the fair considerable free advertising and never even received a complimentary ticket. We coincide with the Independent, however, and would rather see the next county fair held in Goshen or Pond town than Provo. Glohe. Xotlee.

An English evctigelist relates this interesting incident, Hi his Gospel t(in pel a nee work: "While at a restaurant I met a gentleman whom L had met in temperance work, and noticed that the blue ribbon which had always been most conspicuously diplayed in his coat buttonhole at the meetings was wanting. 'Where is your blue ribbon?' I asked. Fur reply, he opened his coat, and there in one of the buttonholes of his waistcoat was a thin, very thin piece of blue. I asked him why he did not wear it where it could he: seen, to which lie replied that during business hours it subjected him to so much chaff from those with whom he came in contact that he thought it better not to let it be seen. I said to him, 'Did you ever hear of Admiral Nelson?' Nel-son?' Ho looked surprised, but answered, 'Yes, of course I have, but what has Admiral Nelson to do with the question?' 'You remember when Nelson was about to engage th- enemy at the battle of Trafalgar, he! dressed himself in his full uniform, and placed all the medals and orders that he had won nn his breast. His officers remonstrated with him, saying say-ing that he should take oil his decorations, decora-tions, or at least cover them up with a handkerchief, as ot herwise he would become a mark for the enemy's musketry. But the gallant admiral would have none of their advice. 'I won these distinctions in the face of t'u: enemy,' lie replied 'and 1 shall wear them in the face of the enemy.' The lesson was not lost upon any hearer, I am assured. t- ' "In an experimental observation-of thirty-eight boys, of all classes of society and of average health, who had been using tobacco for periods ranging from two months to two years, twenty-seven showed severe injury to the constitution and iri-sulllcieut iri-sulllcieut growth, thirty-two showed the existence of irregularity of the heart's action, disordered stomachs, cough, and a craving for alcohol; thirteen had iutermittence of the pulse; and one had consumption. After they had abandoned the use of tobacco, within six months time one half were free from all their former symtoins and the remainder had recovered re-covered by t lie end of ihe year." C. W. Lyman in New York Medical Journal. The French Anti-Tobacco Society is making preparations for a great congress of similar organizations to beheld in Paris during the exhibition of 1900. M. Decroix. the President. has issued in the society's journal an appeal to ladies, physicians, and schoolmasters for their views on the subject of the use of tobacco, and urges his fellow crusaders in all parts of the world to favor him with sugges tions for the program of the congress. Tho following statement appeared recently in the KnlnMie Zntnivj, of Cologne: ''Attentive people can- Dot f-til to notice that drunkenness is increasing in Germany, in the country as well as in the cities. Medical men. political economists, and clergyman appreciate and record the fact with much sorrow on account of its deplorable de-plorable results." Do It In Jlusincss Style.
