Show EASY FOR SMOOT. Whon tho office of intornal revenue collector was romoved from Montana to Suit Lake through the efforts of Senator Sena-tor Kearns, it was established at the most logical point. If it is takon back to Montana through tho efforts of Senator Sen-ator Walsh, politics will triumph over principle and business considerations. Tho location of the offico in this city has resultod only in good and tho government gov-ernment should let well enough alone. Tho Horald-Bepubllonn ha3 pointed out various .reasons for retaining tho offico here. If the reasons aro valid, it ought not to bo difficult to kcop the internal in-ternal revenue office in this city. Senator Sen-ator Smoot undoubtedly will be able to worst Senator Walsh in thlB oontost. If Senator Smoot possesses the power and influence at Washington of which ho boasts, Senator Walsh will quickly capitulate ca-pitulate and admit that tho office cannot can-not bo taken away from Salt Lake Oity. If Sonator Smoot falls In his task, tho people of Salt Bake and Utah will bo inclined to rogard his power as mythical. mythi-cal. If he cannot accomplish tho least of tasks, how can ho achieve anything of importanoo for his stato when weighty mattors domand his attention? |
