Show ; --4 THE SALT LAKE TIMES, TCJESDAj7" EVENING, APRIL 15, 1890. to the moral welfare of tho city. We hope that every official, from the mayor down, will do his duty. i There is a very proper demand on I the part of the respectable peoplo of i Salt Lake City that gambling shall either bo entirely suppressed or else t kept within at least half-wa- y decent i bounds. For various well known rea- - sons municipal government must be ; much more strict in Salt Lako than ! would be necessary in cities where such a peculiar state of affaire docs not exist. ! The present administration owes it to v itself and to the people to give this city ? a good governmeut in. every respect. The Liberal oflicials tire naturally being t dosely watched, and they must not lay I themselves open to adverse criticism, j They cannot afford to be negligent as j on the water question more than on any other material point. Now that the new administration officials are com-fortably settled in their places with ad-ditional salaries, let them beware of the coming dog days and of a shortened water supply. ' THE WATKR SUPFLV. The finest residence property in this city is on tlio rising terraces aud benches which crown its northern and eastern boundaries. This, provided al-ways that a good supply of wholesome water is at hand to vender living pos-sible and lo furnish nouvishment and nutriment to vegetation, shrubbery and trees. Older residents are familiar with the famishing cry of tho novth-benulier- s for water, which for years has rung in the ears of municipal legis- - lators, aud which sometimes rose with threatening violence wheu endur-ance seemed no longer a virtue but a cowardly silence. Well, the mountain streams aro pouring their swelling and superabundant waters In unwelcome Hoods upon tho sodden valley, and what is being done, or what can bo done, to retain the surplus Hood for use iu tho coining summer? At large es-pouse a groat hole was dug by the city last year iu the gravel bank on tlio east end of First South street. When finished it was like a sievo with sides to contain a weight of water and with a bottom that was bot-tomless so far as holding liquid was concerned. The pressure from tho sides only served to force the water through tho perforated bottom of the sievo. Has this graveled bottom been puddled or paved so that this costly and boasted reservoir can bo used for the purpose intended? The city is driving rock tunnels into tlio sides of City creek to obtaiu additional sup-plies of water from subterranean sources. This experiment, although costly, is well. Would it not be wollto utilize tho formation in that valloy as recommended by competent engineers to build a safe and compara-tively inexpensive reservoir iu which to imprison the wasting waters nnd hold them against tho time of need? Thk Timks asserts, basing its assertion on the deliberate statement of a competent aud experienced engineer, that there is water enough within striking distauce of this city, to furnish an ample supply for a million people. This assertion is made with the full knowledge of the extraordinary demand . for irrigating, sprinkling and domestic uses which this city makes on tho sources of water sup-ply.

Omaha muscle, money and talent, are contri-buting a large share of tho vitality which Is transforming Salt Lalt City Into a city In fact bn well h in name. They are netting a pace of nroHperity that astoulsheit the natives and warms the sluggish blood which formerly checked the wowth of the mountain-locke-metropolis. Omaha Mee. While it is true that there are a great many Omaha and Nebraska men in Salt Lake, there are more Denver and Colo-rado men in this city than from any other section of the country. Nebraska peoplo eoino next, and then cotuo the Iowans. Tho newcomers from the three states of Colorado, Nebraska and Iowa are all doing well here, and tho major-ity of them aro rapidly pushing to the front. There is plenty of room for more of them, and they are all welcome to (iod's own country. SALT LAKE THEATEP IHAH. 8. BURTON, - Manager.

We all have grown so very used To teasing, loathsome bores The men who whistle in the house, And never close tho doors; Who will go out between the acts To take a little drop We scarcely ought to mind the man Who's always talking shop. A nulsancef Did you ever have A fly buzz 'round your head, Alighting on It now and then. Till you fain would be dead? You haver A ha You swear to think Of It. Hush up! Now stop. It s nothing when compared to him Who's always talking shop. Now. whether he's an author, or An artist, or a poet, He is the man who always seems To want us all to know it. He likes to throw in business words, Till mad you'd like to hop. He will not stop, that awful man Who's always talking shop. Home day a cyclone will swoop dowu, A blizzard will descend, And scoop him up to give the wretch A very proper end. Or else Home vengeful mortal's gun Will, with a sounding pop. Put daylight through that fiend of Mends Who's always talking shop. Sknatoh Taddock asserts that the silver legislation of this congress will be acceptable to tho advocates of free coi aud all tho people of this section will say amen.

I'ltESM COMMENT. Salt, Lake's Business Barometer. Denvor News. The exchanges at tho new clearing house in Salt Lake amounted for the lirst live days to $1,878,4.54. or an aver-age of $373,611 per day. Thero is no business barometer equal lo the clear-ing house. IT IS HIGH TI.UK. The New York Mail aud Express has started a fund for tho erection of a monument to the memory of the na-tion's hero, General Grant. It is high time that some one set the ball rolling. For nearly four years tho ashes of tho veteran have reposed in tho little dingy brick vault guarded by a couple of policemen, while Chauucey M. Dcpew and others have solicited interviews re-garding their opinions as to the best methods of raising tho necessary funds. Interviews, however, were all that wero solicited. The manner in which tho matter lias been treated by the citizens of New York is not only a disgrace to that city, but a reproach to those outside the limits of Gotham who have allowed it to rest ns they have. Now York craved tho boon of being al-lowed to perpetuate tho memory of Grant. Tho result has been a blot on tho record of the American people, who should be nothing if not grateful. They should not any longer delay pay-ing tho tribute duo lo the memory of him who saved the republic. But it is doubtful whether even New York will erect a monument. It is more likely that peoplo outside the city will con-tribute the major portion of tlio fund-Perhap- s it is better so. Perhaps it is better that New York should be allowed lo stand in the same light it has for years. Tub Mail aud Express has started a uiau across the continent iu a paper canoe. If tho material of the craft is as thin as old man Sheperd's editorials tho youth will bo drowned before ho has gone a mile up tho Hudson, Councilman Spakkokd has very properly sold his Rapid Transit railroad slock. This was the proper thing to do, us no councilman should bo interested in any corporation that asks for any franchise or favors from the city couu- - The Rapid Stride or "The Times." Ouray, Col., Plalndealer. The Salt Lake Times came lo hand enlarged to eight pages, and is appar-ently in a prosperous condition. It has certainly made some rapid strides to-ward metropolitan journalism during tho past few months. The real estate exchange is demon- - Btrating its usefulness. It is composed of men of first-clas- s business quulilica- - tions, and they are leaving nothing un- - i done to advanco tho interests of Halt i Lake City. The mining exchange, when it gets into full working order, will provo equally as useful. Missouri Kelbrni. Omaha Bee. Ki't'onn is striding over Missouri at a killing pare. Poiticuatcd crusaders have attacked the rum power in spots and bathed the gutters with rock and rye. The state treasurer's bondsmen have actually stepped up to the wicket with tho cash to make good the deficit, and the courts have pronounced pro-gressive euchre playing a grievous against law and morals. With these evidences of progress shining like beacons on Missouri's path, who can say that civilization is not advancing? Thk Times understands that there is a movement on foot in this city to form a ; democratic organization. This is a ; mistake. Wo want no national politics mixed in Utah affairs for yet a while, i Thero are some very important local is- - t sues to be definitely settled beforo wo have anything to do with national po-- j lilies. Pueblo, a city of 25,000 people, is to have an appropriation of $450,000 for a , public building. Salt Lake, with a pop ulation of 50,000, is not likely to get more than $250,000. This is not a square deal, if iShaughncssy and as-sociates had not "moukeyed" with the cards tho result would havo boon differ-ent for this city. . General Alger as commander-in-chie- f of tho Grand Army of the Kcpub-li- o is making a pretty complete swing around the circle. At the same time he is not letting anybody forget that he j is in the field for the republican presi- - j dential nomination. Ho is tin excellent '( man, aud tho republicans will make no I mistake if they should nominate him. A C'use lor tho Whipping Tost. New York Mall and Express. The story of Thomas II. Lithgow. as told in the uewspapers of today, is a very bad one. It shows how utterly tiu principled and reckless ayounginan, well connected and well brought up.may become when ho once fairly sets out on a career of vice. Nothing can ever repair the wrong he has dune U hisow n family, to his wife, to Miss Phillips and to her family. We know of no outcome of moral depravity, short of premeditated and deliberate murder, comparable in sheer wickedness to that of making tho bond serve the purposes of deceit, tratid and robbery. But Lithgow.married man as he was, imposed on Mr. Phillips, im-posed on Ids family.obtained his daugh-ter's heart and hand, and then took the trusting and unsuspecting young woman on what was called a bridal trip to 'New York to rob and desert her, successfully accomplishing his purpose. ' In Groat Britain at the present moment the ques-tion of reviving tho lash in the case, of convicted burglars is being vigorously agitated. It would be well it wo hail such a law here. But we would have the scope of tho law enlarged so as to include such scoundrels as Thomas L, .Sate, alias Lithgow. The whipping post anil the would havo a wholesome effect. 11KKT HUOAIt IX ITAH. Utah offers a bounty of ono cent per pound on 8U(ar manufactured iu this territory. This is a very liberal induce-ment to men of means and enterprise to engage iu tho manufacture of sugar from beets. Wo understand that one company has already been organized for that purpose, aud others may be formed iu tho near future. Nebraska offers tho same premium as Utah, and it may interest our readers to learn tho result. Tho O.siiard Sugar company, as it is called, is building an immense factory at Grand Island. It is UOO feet long, 100 feet wide, and throe stories high. Men are working night and day to rush it to completion. The machinery, consisting of twenty-seve-carloads, is now en route to Grand Island. The company owns forty acres of land on which itsplaut is located, and it has contracted for 8,000 acres on which lo raiso beets. Employment will be given lo 200 men. Tho investment will be over $500,000, and the factory will be a very important industry not only for the prosperous town of Grand Island but, for a largo portion of The beets raised in tho vicin-ity of Grand Island havo been thor-oughly analyzed and aro found to con-tain IB per cent of saccharine mat-ter. In Germany and Fruncej sugar is profitably made from beets containing only from 8 per cent of saccharine matter. That the Grand Island enter-prise will provo very profitable there is no doubt, and there is no reason why sugar making cannot bo carried on just as successfully in Utah. The beet-suga- r industry will certainly bo a great bene-fit to the farmers, as beets aro a thrifty crop, and if a home market is aff orded they will be produced in largo quanti-ties in the Salt Lako valley. j ' . DURING the six mouths that Judge J. Groff has filled the oflico of general i; land commissioner, ho has reduced the ! number of pending entries by sixty thousand. lie has also made many hu ll portaut reforms, and his rulings have ' been without exception fair and honest. fSo Jar Judge Groff's record excels that of auy of ids predecessors. He is a j . western inau, and therefore knows the needs of tho west, where the business of jj his oflico originates. I'i Aix money appropriated for the im-j- j ' provement of tho Missouri river is jj money thrown into a mudhole. Yet it j is proposed to appropriate $000,000 for ifl that purpose. The Missouri river com- - i missioners, three in number, receive fat j ' salaries, and of course they must havo i j something to do, even if it is only to Bpend jearly a million dollars on a ; stream that is no longer of any uso for ( navigation purposes. It can't oven be j depended upon as a boundary lino be- - j tweeu the states of Iowa and Nebraska, ! iso shifting aro its sandbars and chan- - nel. j . 1 1 Tdb harvest excursions have hoen completely set down upon by the inter- - (state railway commissioner, Mr, Morri- - J Bon, who decides that tho salo of such f ! tickets is illegal unless the railroads I .make the rates open to all classes. This i of course they will not do. The decis- - ion was brought about by one of tho 1 United States senators of Iowa. It ap- - ' pears that prohibition is rapidly dopop-j- , dilating Iowa, and the senator is afraid that cheap excursion rates to Colorado " and Utah will take nearly all the peoplo J out of tho cold-watu- r state, never to ro- - , j The Commercial street property j owners havo selected Utah asphalt for f paving that thoroughfare. Wo hope that the contractors will succeed in doing a good piece of work. We believe that Utah asphalt is as good as that from the isle of Trinidad, if it is prop-erly prepared. The contractors will do i well if they secure the services of an expert in asphalt paving, as much do- - j ponds upon the successful paving of I Commercial street. If tho experiment I is successful, Utah asphalt will be ex- - teusively used in Salt Lake, especially i. on tho residence streets. |
