Show I ' EDITORIALS. WASHINGTON'S EXAMPLE. From the American Fork Times. When Waahingtou refused to a third time become the executive head of the newly organized government of the United States, be set an example which the years has not been able to efface, it has come to be an unwritten law in the republic that one man ' should n t be kept for a lifetime in executive positions, no matter how able he may be or how well fitted for the position. The Infusion of new Mood Into public affslrs gives vigor to the Isidy politic, and though in some instances It has been retroactive. yet the exceptions have only proved the rule. This much has" been said from the fart tfiat the friends of John C. Cutler are urging his nomination as governor of Utah by the Republican party, using this as one of the reasons chosen. It why their man shctil-cannot lie dental that the point is well taken, and that all things being quil, it is best to fo low the iluie-ciiowl chsU ms of the founders of the government. It can safely lie said, however, that ir Mr. Cutler had no other claim to the recognition of Utah citizens than this, that the experiment would be of doubtful propriety. The fact ls, however, that he la a man nf sterling worth, and one in whom the entire slate can place implicit trust, snd this only makes the stand taken all the stronger. Whir tut in any manner disparaging the qualifl-cation- s of any other candidate, it is .generally conceded that Mr, Culler would make a splendid standard-beare- r In the forthcoming battle w tb : Democracy. that they consider them the weakest In the party. Re this as It may. there Is no gainsaying but that Cutler is a strong candidate and a man to whom the people could turn with the utmost confidence. It has I icon mooted that with Mm in the governors chair, that a faction would be the power behind the throne. Those who know the gentleman best cannot repress a smlie at this, knowing his determination of character. John C. Cutler could never he a negative force. It was hla positive character which has made him the force in the business world he has proven himself to he. There la nothing In it. If elected he would be the governor, and he alone. Mr. Cutlers claim to the position is ereet his shillty to fill it cannot be And ovr all and beyond nueMtloned. all be it remembered that in this instance the initiation of bis canvas nme not from him.

This may be so, but we do not be.leve It Is true in Ulah. There Is a disposition here to reward a man who generally strives for the general good. It Is for this reason that the name of the Senior Senator is so often spoken of these days, when his term of office has so nearly expired Whenever and wherever there la a chance do do a good thing for Utah he has .never been found wanting. He saw a chance to give to the state another outlet to the coast, and hla capital was .forthcoming to help the scheme along. .Almost every dollar he has in the world Is invested In Utah; bis confidence In her future Is unbounded, and whether he Is In congress or out or congress he will be ever found among Ahe foremost of those who are developing her resources. Republics may be .ungrateful, but by the way the common people of the state are now talking about Senator Kearns. Utah will not be ungrateful, and site will return lilm again to Washington to carry on fur another six years the work he has so ably commenced. From the Mercur Miner. One morning last week the words flashed over the state that the Mends of Tom Kearns had carried averything before them in the second "ounty In point of population in Ulah. What makes It more significant la the that this was in the home county of a senatorial candidate who has been In the habit of carrying everything before him. In some quarters It was In the nature of a surprise, but It was not a surprise to those who have watrhed the growing sentiment of the neopie from Cache to Washngton. They see no reason for a change. When an official haa done hla whole duty, has proved himself earnest and wise, what la the use of trying another? When the tale of the counties are at last all told, it will be seen that Tom Kearns has won this county the same as he did Weber. rrt REISER As RISING AUDITOR. THE MAN FOR the day for the meeting of the state Republican convention draws near the chances of Albert Reiser for the nomination for state auditor grow brighter. In hla home county he has the confidence of all and will have back of him Ita entire delegation. From all over the state word la coming which Is cheerful to his supporters, and It looks as If he will land the prlxe. This recogfilton upon the part of the people he rtchiy deserves. He ! a young man of more than ordinary ability, hut what la more, he le a man of character. While auditor of Salt Lake City, he conducted his office without fear or favor to anyone. More than once he ran up against the city council. but In every inatance it proved that he was right. When he left the office it was In such shape that hi successor could carry on the work without a hitch. Those who know him best have the greatest respect for him and hla record la such that if he la elected to the higher position of state 'WHO HAS -- BOUGHT TRUTH T auditor, the entire people know that he of the That wildcat journal known as will fill It in a manner worthy state. cali"Truth" (hlc) for a journal of Its ber assumes a virtue which is vastly FOR FAVORABLE juunslng to those who know its char- LOOKING 8TRAUP. acter.
