Show ' THE PROVO HERALD, WEDNESDAY, THE PROVO HERALD of cheap construction. Lack of present funds, and the probability of hange with growth, compels some temporary building. But the days of permanent things is at hand. Concrete has come to be a major building material, and concrete, properly made, is practically indestructible. There is every reason to believe that If humanity so desires, the reinforced concrete factories, office buildings, shops and stores now erected in this city will be serving their purpose here 500 years hence as well as they do today. The Pantheon, built in Rome 1800 years ago, is built in part of concrete which is probably as strong or stronger than it was the year it was built. Many Roman roads made of stone slabs 2000 years ago are good highways today. Concrete roads are for all practical purposes stone slabs, wider, longer and thicker and more wear resisting than those used, in the Roman roads. Iron horseshoes and iron tires wore ruts in the Roman stone roads. Modern concrete roads have to resist rubber, not steel. Rubber will always be in good supply. We shall never re turn to iron tires. Under rubber wheels, concrete highway paving, well built and well laid, should last for centuries with almost no cost for upkeep. This is the age of concrete. This is the day to think in terras of permanent construction. Published by The Herald Company, Proro, Utah. EVERY MONDAY, WEDNESDAY AND FRIDAY. E. C. Eodgers, Editor and Publisher. Harry Butler.

Permanent Construction Railroad and Farmer Once upon a time, and not so long (The Portland Telegram.) ' Thinking men are coming to know ago, a railroad didn't care very much it the fanners along the line made a profit out of their crops, or lost money; railroad freight rates had to be paid. That, apparently was all the railroad cared about. Then the wiser of railroad executives arrived at the conclusion that one must not kill the goose that lays the golden egg; one must encourage the goose to continue laying. Farmers will not continue growing crops and losing money. So, the railroad cooperates with the agriculturalists along the lino In order that they may be more prosperous and grow more crops to ship on the railroad. Which brings us to the announcement that the Union Pacific will re- install its free farm marketing bulletin service. This will enable farmers the U. P. to become acquainted markets unknown to them be-- ! fore, and with opportunities to get! livestock, seeds and other agricul-lbeetural products they may want. n .m'MVAV.MMmMV 1 A that if America is going to profit by the development of its immense natural resources, if it is going to have anything left after the orgy ot development is over, it must put more of Its wealth into permanent construction buildings that will not have to be torn down twenty years hence, dams that will never break, sewers that will last like the catacombs, railway lines that will not have to be straightened and grades that will not have to be leveled, highways that will not have to be re- located, bridges that will carry pos- terity, and paving that Is laid to stay. We cannot go on much longer as we have gone on these three hundred years of wooden houses, wooden bridges and mud roads, flattering ourselves that when these things decay we shall have bigger wealth for better building. While we thus deceive selves we are spending wealth on pairs that perish with their using, and wasting a fortune that might have put, In large part, Into perma- nent construction There Is an economy in some forms our-alon- g h . . ..

Senatorial dignity has been ruffled by the suggestion that senatorial loquacity be muzzled. "Mr. President, in connection with this resolution to investigate the exI plosion on the battleship wish to remind the senate that the nut crop in the West is facing the first crisis in its history. That kind of speech sounds like it was lifted from the opera comique, but it is not at all a parody on the kind of speeches spectators in the senate galleries are often startled to hear enunciated on the floor. And the suggestion that senatorial loquacity be muzzled simply means that certain senators think speeches of that sort ought to be stopped. Senator Jones, Republican, of Wash- ington, threw the bomb into the camps oi nis colleagues wnen be introduced a resolution providing for an amendment to the senate rules to read.: "Debate shall be confined to the question under consideration unless otherwise provided by unanimous consent." Under present rules a senator is privileged to talk on any subject under the sun any time he can get the recogni'ion of the chair. That is what is called senatorial courtesy. And very often a senator who has made up his mind to speak on a certain subject' will receive recognition during the progress of a hot debate on another subject and sidetrack the whole topic that was under consideration by a speech lasting for hours. A recent incident shows how this works out. During a debate on the Newberry case an agreement was reached to suspend the discussion on a certain date and proceed to the discussion of another subject. A certain senator, at the time set for stopping the debate, raised a point of order and insisted upon his right to an additional discussion ot the subject After a lengthy wrangle the chair ruled against him and directed the clerk to call upon the subjjet set for consideration at that time. As soon as the subject was called up' the senator who had protested against being cut off secured recognition. He made a brief reference to the new topic and then launched Into a new speech on the Newberry case. Technically the other subject was hn- Sifore the senate and theoretically the .senator was discussing it but actually ne was discussing the Newberry case and there wasn't a way in the world to stop him. members of the senate, who are great stricklers for the oldtlme prerogatives of senators, are sure to "buck," and "buck" hard, the attempt to muzzle them. But a group of the ' newer senators have declared their J willingness to give the new plan a trial. $ "This seems to me a very wise rule N. S. WASHINGTON, 0 V V 55 45 MUZZLE 5 i 2 lbs.

One of the most curious things in human nature is the exercise of authority by the average man. Place him in a position that is merely subordinate and everything goes well, anyway, so far as authority is concerned. - But put him in a position of authority and at once he begins to resist the authority just above, exactly as the fellow above him in turn resists the authority still higher.
