Show River valley, has sounded the praises of this section through northeastern Pennsylvania until several families contemplate moving here and this spring several homeseekers will come out and take a look at us. But so far as anything we are doing is concerned they dont know anything about us except that we are Mormons and that Smoot is senator. So far as Tom Kearns is concerned, if he should die tomorrow it is doubtful if any one would recall him as a United States senator at all. They would doubtless think he was one of our state senators. It is the same thing in New York. A limited stay offered but few opportunities of seeing such men as Pierpont Morgan, but there are other who have solid business gentlemen money to invest and would like to invest it with us, but they dont know that we are on ear.-- i except for the fact that we sent a man named Roberts to the house, who had nineteen wives and hundred and seventy-eigchildren or and thousand twenty thirty a man name a sent we have with that that rhymes with all the flutes and toots in the hooks to the senate. ht And it is high time we got over it. It is pretty nearly time that we got out another advertising car and sent it down east. If the Commercial club wants to do something practical let them try this. Instead of pictures of the temple and the tabernacle let them load it with chunks of copper ore; in lieu of copies of the Doctrines and Covenants, pile up gold rock in the show cases. Other states do not send out the Methodist discipline when they have big hunches of grapes to put on exhibition. Let the religious feature die out. Show them we amount to something. And let us for heavens sake quit telling the outside world that all we are good for is to pose on exhibition for a day or two as we are doing. Stop trying to secure so many transients and let us secure a few permanents. Get homeseekers and not sight-seerThen and not till then will we become great. This state needs That a whole lot of new blood. veins which is coursing through her now is becoming sluggish. It is called conservative, it is true, but conservative in Utah right now means, Bluggish and too confounded old fashioned. We want men who will do things for the money there is in it and not a lot of old hacks, who the moment they get a dollar or two, build a railroad or so on paper and begin crowding the others in an attempt to break into the United States senate. There are ten million men in the east who would like to invest money in some money s. 9 Jf 9 9 9 9 9 9 9 9 9 9 9 9 9 9 9 9 9 9A 9 9 9 9 9 9 tt ....THE....

These combinations of politics and religion here in Utah have been and will be, its unmaking instead of its making. There are a whole lot of people here who will kick over such expressions and say that the writer is an extremist. Let it go at that. It is the extremist who does things while the conservative never amounts to anything except as the central figure at the obsequies. St. Joe, Missouri was filled with conservatives, while a few extremists went down to Kansas City and started an opposition town. History has demonstrated th result. St. Louis was filled with conservatives who derided Chicago, uut compare the cities today. The passing of the conservative made New York what she is, for when the old Knickerbockers faded out and the wild and wooly business man got to the front, there was something doing and it has kept up ever since. It is an age of progress and not retrogression and he who does not put his shoulder to the wheel and help his fellow man to get a hump on himself is a clam and should be tossed in among the other condiments and made into a chowder to be devoured by the others. o Truth Bureau, No. 41144 X Street, (By Special Marconigraph.) Washington, D. C., Feb. 26. Cog, me bye, said the senator, as they sat at the lunch counter, discussing some bacon and kale, with vinegar and other pickled fixings, d'ye knaw tis been a right busy time fr me th lasht two weeks.

He has demonstrated, on occasions, that he had been touched by the true fire of genius and thought like diamonds, pearls and rubles scintillated and sparkled as he wrote. Wnen the thoughts found expression through the printing press they added to the light of the world. His character is lovable, gentle and guileless, and he is well beloved by many in these regions. But he is sot in his ways. He is living in the past, lie fails to realize that times have changed; that Utah is marching on in step with the rest of the world;' fails to see that the old things of 20 or 30 or 40 years ago have passed away until but a remnant of them is left, and soon all things will have become new. In Mormons and in all things pertaining to them he thinks he sees a menace to the state, to tho country and to the world. It is a string upon which so many have played for so many years that it is worn out, but his ar fails to discern the harsh and discordant sounds. He has become sot in his ways. He is living in the past 0 The death of Mrs. Traughber, wife of the well known newspaper man, Eugene Traughber was very sad, although not altogether unexpected. She suffered Intensely for the past two years and death came as a release when there was no hope of her restoration to health. She was taken about ten days ago by her husband to her old home at Kansas City in the hope that she would be benefitted .by the change and the lesser altitude, but the hope was elusive and on Tuesday her spirit took its flight to the regions beyond. Mrs. Traughber was a kind, loveable woman, largely endowed with good sound sense, and was in every way a helpmate to her husband, who together with her other relatives, has the sympathy of a large circle of friends in this city and also in Ogden where Mr. and Mrs. Traughber were well known and greatly respected. Thin, too, Cog, said the senator, as he finished the kale and destroyed the last of the bacon, "theres danger in goin inty a counthry an posin as a good man until th gang gets used to ye.
