West South Temple SL, Salt Lake City, Utah. 144-14- e L EDITORIALS THE LEADING CANDIDATE. o Under the above heading the Independent, a strong New York weekly magazine, in its issue of Feb. 13, 1908, discusses editorially the Republican presidential situation, as follows: We made mention last week of the extraordinary unanimity with which our correspondents had expressed their enthusiastic approval of President Roosevelts policies. The Chicago Tribune has now received about six thousand replies to questions as to the issues and candidates before the people, and has found the same This Is not so strange In unanimity. the latter case, for that Journal may be supposed to find its clientele mainly in the North Central States, while our clrailation is widely distributed over the country, and not least in these Eastern States, where there is great difference of view, if we were to judge from the leading Journals. Dut there Is very little difference of view among the people. They take no stock In the "Roosevelt panic. In this city the Times, Sun and Evening Post, not to speak of the sensational morning Journals, are strongly In opposition, and the Tribune is coolly loyal. But they do not represent the people: they represent their owners. And it is equally remarkable that the larger portion or the Democrats are as emphatic in their approval of the president's policies au are the Indeed, it is not easy Republicans. to see how the platforms of the two parties can differ, except as one will say protection, while the other will say revenue, and both agree for about the same revision of the tariff. But the tariff Is not now the Issue. The activities in interstate traffic; and these all agree, except the few who declare that it is the president who created the panic. As to issues we seem to have come to a period of harmony, tho not an "era of good feeling," like that at the time of President Monroe. What, then, does this mean as to the selection of presidential candi- dates?? It means that the Republicans are sure to nominate a man who will claim to represent Mr. Roosevelts policies. That Is settled. It means that the Democrats will do the same. But it also means that those who oppose those policies will work underhand and seek tthe nomination of a candidate who will be in favor of the policies and laws, but against their execution. They will seek a safe man, a "conservative man, a man with a less erratic and "sensational temper and tongue than the present Incumbent of the office. They will then compare the records of candidates, the temper of their language on these subjects. The Democrats will divide between a man like Mr. Bryan, whom the advanced1 wing will follow, while the conservatives will ask for a man like Judge Gray, who will draw oft the conservatives from the Republican ranks. Equally the Republicans will divide between a candidate who Is positively pledged to the present policy of control, and cne whose support of it will be lukewarm and Ineffective. LAND AvWSMXY.

Many Wealthy Travelers Arrange for Special Cooking Companies Make Preparations to Serve Emigrants with Proper Food. New York. Wealthy transatlantic travelers who take passage on the big liners for Europe engage other things as well as their staterooms, according to the chief stewards on some of the largest and faster steamships In service between New York and European ports. Many of them engage storerooms for their particular provisions on which they drapr during, the voyage; and, In cases where young children and their attendants go with the families of Americas wealthy men, special kitchens are often arranged for. The new Lusitania and Mauretania, turbines of the Cunard line, have had several families among the who insisted that & special kitchen should be arranged where their children could secure the cooking that they were used to at home, while special brands of milk prepared foods and especially cases of some spring water or other are invariably taken abroad by particular travelers. It is on record that the late Sir Henry Irving always had a cow go on the same ship with him. This was always My for onSir Henry, for ofhe the Ata steamship traveled lantic Transport line, which has special accommodations between decks for valuable horses and cattle In the space other steamships devote to their steerage passengers. Sir Henry Irving In this way had fresh milk every morning of the ten mornings that he was en route between New York and London, a delicacy that can best be appreciated by those who miss the fresh milk on even the most luxurious ships after 24 hours of steaming away from either the western or eastern terminal port. While Americans are very often among those who arrange for special cooking, this custom is a regular thing among the Oriental races, the Chinese ambassador having his own kitchen, while the Mohammedan traveler Invariably uses his own special cook, who prepares victuals according Steamto the Musselman customs. ships bringing over large numbers of Jewish immigrants, too, have a special kosher cook to supervise the distribution of food among the steeragers. The great linera of the North GerHamburg-Americaman Lloyd, Cunard and White Star lines have all well-to-d- o a special kitchen for the exclusive use of the nurses of either the adults or the children of certain families, who pay a handsome bonus for the privilege of using this kitchen. The Vanderbilts, whether they are accompanied by their children or not. Invariably have a special chef with them, unless the trip is a hurried business one. This chef generally assumes responsibility for the meals that are sent to the private dining-rooof his employer. John D. Rockefeller had a great quantity of specially prepared milk shipped aboard the German steamship Amerlka when he made his memorable voyage to France a year ago, and Andrew Carnegie never travels abroad without making advance arrangements .for a diet kitchen on the steamship in which he takes passage. THE OLDEST WEATHER MAN. a Dennia Horigan More Than Half Century at the Naval Observatory. Dennis Horigan, who with the United States Naval Observatory, is perhaps the oldest weather man in the United States. He has been keeping tab on the weather for 62 years. Long before the weather bureau was established Mr. Horigan was making observations at the observatory night and day every three hours, noting the temperature, the barometric pressure, the nature of the clouds and the direction of the wind." Appointed under the administration of President Buchanan, in 1857, he has been in the service ever since. He is now an old man, yet in fair health, considering his long service and the fact that It Included night work. He came from the old. country In the 50s and settled in Georgetown, then the most Important part of the District of Columbia. He was at the .old obse, vatory in 1861 when Capt. M. F. Maury left t join the south In the civil war. He has served with many naval officers and scientists, among them Commander Maury, Capt. Gillis, Admirals-Davist, Sands, Rodgers, Rowan, Franklin, Belknap, Pythian, McNair, C H. Davis and Chester, and Prof. Hall, Newcomb, Harkness, Eastman, Prisby and Skinner. Washington.

A few years ago the water hyacinth was brought from Florida to Louisiana Last year the as a floral ornament. government expended $200,000 in an effort to control the pest and has only partly succeeded. Streams and bayous which once carried big barges of lumber in Louisiana and eastern Texas have been closed to navigation by the rank vegetation of the hyacinth. The Sabine river above. Orange has become filled with the plants, and It la related that these all grew from a few plants carelessly thrown Into the river by some housewife when the plants she had in a tub as an ornament became too numerous. The matter has been brought to the attention of the city authorities and steps have already been taken to destroy before it is too late all the hyacinths at Sam Houston park and those which have got into the bayou. A boat is to be sent along the lower reaches and all hyacinths carefully gathered and destroyed. It is anticipated tha there may be some legislative the growing of these plants, near a navigable stream and punishing anyone so careless as to throw any of them Into a stream which Is of any use for any purpose. action-prohibitin- |
