The American public have a num- i bcr of important problems confront-j confront-j i ng them today. One is the question I whether or not we shall add to our ! present teritory. The Hawawilan Islands are daily begging for annexation annex-ation to the Union, and any form of admission will satisfy their Inhabitants. Inhabi-tants. The Philippines, Cuba and Porto Rico will shortly be under American dominion, and it will bo necessary ne-cessary to decide whether or not the temporary jurisdiction shall be aiade permanent. No important reason has thus far been advanced why those islands should not belong to the United States. We believe it is the duty-nay, duty-nay, the specilic mission of our grand republic to spread its peaceful and prosperous influence over the tbiee unhappy isles which have been the spoliation of the ignorant and cruel Spaniards for so many weary years. The four groups are more valuable to the United States than they would be to any other nation, because under the stars and stripes there would be advancement on the lines of intalli-gence, intalli-gence, freedom and prosperity. Another irupoitant question is, shall we retain a larirerj arniy and navy? The events of ihn present war have conclusively proven the unprc-paredness unprc-paredness of the United States for in armed conflict with any other puwer. The commercial interests and the political welfare of the American people demand that more adequate measures be taken for their safety. We believe the sentiment of the people of the country is rapidly crys-talizing crys-talizing into a feeling in favor of a larger army and navy and retention of the various possessions, and.tbat tbls sentiment will eventualy fdrte congress to accede to the public desire. de-sire. Logan Nation. Charges Filed With the Governor. Tliere appears to be a spirit of vin-dictiveness vin-dictiveness in the fight of the bar association as-sociation for the removal of Judge Dusen berry, at least on the part of certain members. This is deprecated by many who would like to sec the judge step down aad out of the position posi-tion that he has disgraced by his indiscretions. in-discretions. The bar association has maintained secrecy iu its trialmf the judge's case, and the understanding was that the findings would not be made public at present. They were Tuesday tiled with Governor Wells, and he kept them from the public on the. same un derstanding. But that has not suited the purposes of certain of the members, mem-bers, who have given a purported synopsis to The Salt Lake Tribune, entirely ignoring the press of the district. dis-trict. As a result of this premature and insatisfactory report there was dissatisfaction in the camps of those working for the removal of the judge when. the synopsis was read. The synopsis given in The Tribune charges the judge with drunkenness, venality and incompetency. It says that he has even been drunk on the bench when sending a boy to the reform re-form school. It is a pretty severe arraignment, but comes In a way that shows, as stated before, a spirit of vindictiveness In thus breaking faith with the bar association. The Enquirer En-quirer does not feel justified in using it, even if true. The better way would have been to openly file the charges, as Judge Rhodes did. The public could then have been the judges of the case and said whether or not the governor would be justified in calling an extra session of the legislature. If it Is a mattcrjof person- i Irvine t& HUGk al spite or political ambition back of the move, then the people of this district dis-trict will never petition the governor gover-nor to call an extra session of the legislature to gratify such desires.
