of criminals it Is this that the residents of each two blocks employ a couple of trustworthy men to patrol the locality by this means the entire municipality could be placed under a patrol system with a couple of mounted men to go from point to point and obtain information these local wat watchmen chwen could be authorized as special officers to make arrests when necessary mr pranks franks is of opinion that the plan would work well and that by it the city would soon be rid of the burglars and highwaymen now infesting it it is in worth considering the following culled from judge Wax ems

harkness co they secured the trade of almost all the railroad bands to the number of five hundred the two firms whom it is 18 proposed to boycott petitioned the railroad company to discharge all their officials who engaged in business outside of what the thesal salaries arles paid them warranted hence the proposed stand of the labor organizations against the petitioner petition ers perhaps the report is not well rounded founded it seems doubtful that the workmen work mens ys associations would take such a stand st andas as the one indicated on the ground of the cause stated the liberal 12 organ claims tobaie to have discovered a discrepancy in another liberal 12 member of the city council speaking of the refusal to grant a fi franchise anchise on west temple street to the salt bait lake railroad Bail road company it says say and then it is liable to sad misconstruction st when it is currently said of a city official as it is said of councilman heath that he bad consented to vote for the franchise if the company would agree to build down to roper street where his property to is situated that the company manager said he would do so but want it put in the franchise and that mr heath trust the promise but voted against the franchise because he be have the stipulation to in black and white we say this looks bad aud and wish that such rumors rumon get in circulation for they tend to diminish the reverence and love we all owe to the fathers of the city the liberal organ presents a number of alleged statements of opinions opinion of citizens with regard to the action of the united states marshal in raiding the saloons of dealers who constantly violate the sunday liquor law among those who were requested to enunciate a view was police justice gee that functionary is credited with making the following remark it seems to me that that class of business should be prosecuted under the city ordinances that is our opinion exactly that was also the view expressed nearly a year ago in the law and order mass meetings of citizens held iu in the methodist method ast 1st church justice gees head bond is clear on that point the fact that the municipal liquor ordinances have not been enforced from the advent to power of the liberal P P party has made it necessary for the united states marshal to step in and act under the territorial statute on the same subject if it be true as claimed that the residents and property owners on west temple street favor the construction of an electric car line on that thoroughfare it is difficult to understand why the city council refused last night to bant grant the franchise asked by the salt lake ake city street railway company it has been demonstrated that electric railroads are a great convenience and enhance of depreciating the value of property when the people of a locality wish a public enterprise of that character established why should the city government stand in the way it is observable that when steam railroads ask for the right of way over the public streets of this city the protests of the residents and property owners are not always given as much weight as they are entitled to it seems that when they favor the building of a railroad line their wishes are also liable to be disregarded it appears appear to us without reference to the benefits to corporations the desires of the people baught to weigh heavily in questions of th s criar caracter nar acter the emperor francis joseph seems to be more frank than politic he expresses his real opinions about the dangerous condition of europe he says warts war is inevitable if not why should there be such gigantic preparations for the conflict county kalnoky is on the contrary more politic than frank and asserts that there is no prospect of a breach of international peace the popular belief however goes with the statement of emperor joseph whose expressions cause a financial panic the impression in germany is to the effect that war is a foregone conclusion and that the present predicament of russia is the opportune time to strike her a blow before she and france complete the enormous armaments which the tw two 0 countries are engaged in perfecting surely these are the times of which the master spoke when he said there would be wars and rumors of war nation conspiring against nation siad and kingdom against kingdom the c ses sea
