' The gentlemen. who have thus far given voice to the grievances of the new patty have failed so far as I know Sto indicate how they propose to have i those grievances remedied, except : to saythat political interference by the Mormon church must be abandoned. They do .not state '.how this is.toibe accomplished.. Let us suppose that the church leaders ref use to keep out1 of politics. By what means can ithey.be. compelled; to keep out? Let; it be admitted, also, that either ' house of congress has the power' to unseat an apostle, and that there' is no appeal from ' such action. This is a power based upon the consti-tuticnal. provision that each :housei is the sole judge of the qualifications; of "its Own members. If that- - power be exercised In the casd of ' Senator Smoot, will it be a sufliciet . remedy from - a Gentile standpoint?

J It seems difficult to' make people who are otherwise' understand intelligent, that when 'statehood, came to Utah, congress surrendered nearly all the power It had over' Utah as a territory and that authority so relinquished can never.' be resumed while the constitution of the United States remains as at "present ; And does anyone be-lieve for a moment, that the states would consent to. an amendment to the constitution' which would permit con-- " gre3s to wipe a state off the map? The question, therefore comes bajek to the original proposition: Whatiis - the remedy proposed for the ills com-- -: plained of. .and how can it be enforced?

He has discovered grim horrid, death all around us, and, it is. wrong that we should continue to live, in the face of .his valuable discoveries and ; warnings. But we are grateful, if he had hot written about these most ; dangerous things, he would have written learned dissertations. on politics; from whch Oh,'. Lord, spare us. 1 The public owe much to the Herald, its .market reports in startling headlines, Crabs Pineapples Are MovAre Scarce, Oranges Sell by : the Dozen ing 5 . .The ;k. K. party filed, its, petition Saturday in.order.to get its ticket on the. ballot. The petition bears about 800 names. A number of the names are on the petition twice and some three times. This was done no doubt to swell the number. It is also a notable fact- that many of the alleged signers are not members of the party and wont vote for its nominees A good many-othe names are m the same handwriting which leaves somebody liable prosecution for perjury 'ae each subscriber to the instrument is required to write his or her name himself or herself and to take oath - -- f j ' accordingly. J There. is a rumor to the effect that Judge- - Hiles, the K. K. nominee for congress, .will, be pulled off the ticket because he is a Democrat and wont catch Republican voters who want to see a 'Republican go to congress. Senator Fairbanks was very emphatic! in urging' that all Republicans vote fpr a Republican for congress. The lower house of congress is close and it Is of the utmost importance that tie chances be taken by; Republicans of - . . -- electing a- - Democratic congressman. (Phil A. Peen.) The fire in the grate was most cor- dial in its invitation .the other evening, and so I yielded; I sat and smoked and thpught of the. issues of the campaign, until, away in the night. I. must have dczed,.for I found myself in the midst of most dismal and depressing surroundings. It .seemed that I . was in the manufacturing district of. a great city. Factories, and mills were oh every, hand.. but. everything looked as though.it had been touched by the finger of death. . At first the .streets were deserted and the windows . facing them were covered with, dust and dirt and cobwebs,, and .many of, the glass .panes were, broken out. The ...cobble ,. pavements were dusty and dirty; moth and rust.and.de-rta- y stared at me from .every corner. Not a sound came from . those large buildings, not a perticle cf .smoke chimcurled from, their writover was door and many a, neys ten the word Closed. After walking about those . silent streets for what seemed a ion? time, I saw some hovels off to one side and in these hovels I saw suffering such as I had never dreamed of before. There were, gaunt, haggard women there whose bent forms and seamed' faces and hardened hands told me' a story of hardr times that wrung my, heart. . . . . N -- sky-scrapi- ng . |
