Show RECOVERING OALJ1NE33 THE HEUALD is pleased to note tho evidences evi-dences as the days run and the people recover re-cover from the effects of the sensational and dramatic introduction of the TELLER bill that the community is wisely settling down to the conviction that nil that Utah is likely to get at this time is tie Home Rule provided by the FAULKNEK bill Some very good men were almost carried off their feet by what they in their thoughtless thought-less glee believed to be immediate state hood and permanent emancipation from the bated territorial rule These gentlemen gentle-men did not give themselves time to think intelligently but took it for granted that inasmuch as a Republican Senator had introduced in-troduced the bill the Republican party would approve as a matter of course and the Republican President fall into line It has taken less than a week for most of these gentlemen to recover from their enthusiasm en-thusiasm and now they aro considering the situation from the standpoint of intelligence intel-ligence The TELLER bill would not have been presented or even thought of had it not been for the introduction of the Homo Rule measure This is conceded by all local Republicans themselves faayinc they were compelled to take the stop in order to check the tide running so strongly in favor of the Democracy The Republican gentlemen gen-tlemen who have been active in the matter may be honest enough in what they have done that is to say they may think tho time for statehood has come the people being ready for the better order of things and may with perfect safety ba intrusted with the enlarged powers All Democrats I familiar with tho community are of this opinion and would welcome statehood as heartily as Republicans hence we will concede con-cede honesty of belief to our friends of tho opposition who have worked in tho statehood state-hood movement At the same time it is I pretty generally understood now that about the only effect the introduction introduc-tion of the TELLER bill could have would be to delay by antagonism action on the Home tide bill the most generous measure likely to get through Congress at the present session That the enthusiasts have come back to soberness of thought and calmness of observation speaks well for them and argues in favor of tbe success of tho FAULKNER bill which BO many of the enemies to Utah honed I would bo knocked out by the improbable proposition of Senator TELLER When tho obstacle of an ungenerous unfriendly administration ad-ministration shall have been removed either by argument or defeat at the polls wo can all appeal for statehood with reasonable rea-sonable hope that our prayer will be granted Now it will be pretty good to secure homo rule and that is what tho people generally are striving for complete I emancipation at this time being regarded as impossible |
