The aenate proceedings In re Smoot have collapsed in a somewhat different way from what was expected, al- though those who really looked for expulsion and they are. not numerous scarcely looked for anything else. As to whether the collapse Is temporary or final no one at pivsent can tell; the matter will probably be influenced considerably by the result of tbe fall elections, a manner of doing things which, candor constrains us to remark, is mighty near the limit of demagogy. No matter what view one may take of the situation, all must admit that within a span of time almost equaling that in which our great civil war was fought, the easily demonstrated and as easily determined question of whether the senator was or was not entitled to a seat might have been settled; and for a lnwiy to which we are all wont to ascribe much of dignity, profundity and uprightness to deal with the matter in the piddling, pottering, dilatory manner that has character lzed the proceedings from the. first is or would be surprising if we .did not understand that lailftics, not principle, is the grand consideration in the high as well as the low places. To satisfy those who have been egging on the case a show of diligence occurs in a spasmodic way now and then, the dawdling continuing until it is time to adjourn, and thus do the "grave and reverend selgnoraf satisfy themselves for really they haven't the nerve to make such a precedent as unseating a man who is not liked in certain circles would be. The case now goes over till tbe next session of Congress, which begins on the first Monday In December, and as it will expire by limitation on the fourth of March next and in tbe interim so much business will have accumulated requiring attention that the short term will be barely sufficient to attend to it, this and the other com slderation makes it appear "like as if" Senator Smoot had a lead-pip- e cinch on that seat of contention. o THE POLITICAL. SITUATION,. 'v?! v Th premonitory symptoms of tbe coming political struggle are now plainly seen and felt Soon tbe laauea will be well defined, the candidate will be at their posts and the fight will be on. The Republicans are likely to nominate Judge Morse or J. E. Frick for the supreme bench, and for Congressman whom? A vast amount of Interest and consequence hinges on the reply to that question. Had Senator Smoot been unseated, no matter that the Democrats participated in the proceeding, the feeling of revulsion would have been so great that out of sheer resentment any man the Republicans might put up would assuredly be snowed under; but the matter having gone over, things political hereabout are more nearly normal, and the monster Republican majority of two years ago again looms up with an appearance of solidity that makes 8tate nominations valuable. As for the county, as we have repeatedly shown. In the absence of a now revolution, the Republicans are not In it. tbe three For Representative, names previously mentioned aa leaders by this paper still occupy those posiHowell still has a following tions. which Hammond could take from him to a man if he would declare himself or permit others to declare for him; and In order to settle the thing as nearly as could be done by such means a representative of The Republican recently called on Mr. Hame mond an friend, who invariably answers questions readily and candidly and learned to his full satof isfaction that the State will have none of it. This narfor rows the contest considerably, while a good many are for Hammond anyway, the great bulk of the party are for Howell or Christensen, with The the latter a long way ahead. work of the former! supporters in the last State convention la not forgotten, and will not be, and it is altogether within the probabilities that, aa between them, Parley P. will carry Salt Lake County solid. The same can be said of Tooele, Sanpete and several other counties sonth. with an excellent chance for an even break In the others, not even excepting Cache. The County Attorney's friends are actively and earnestly at work, and those who thought there was any grandstand play going on are deceived; the Christensen forces are In the field to win. - - o Will not the county attorney magnify bis calling and accomplish some little In vindication of tbe law besides, by turning bis attention to tbe steadily practiced Illegalities of .an alleged "protective" association in Salt Lake and its Murray annex? If not, why? A good many are asking this question and they expect the official named to answer it satlsfttctorily without much more delay. o Mr. J. R. Hamblin of Ksnsb, whose portrait recently appeared In these columns, was again in Salt Lake this week and looking after the general Interests of the Utah Angora Goat of southern association Breeders Utah. He reports matters generally brass-mounte- w- old-tim- In his domain and the prosiwcts politically and profitably as well as could be asked. Speaking of politics, Mr. Hamblin is being mentioned iu connection with a nomination for the legislature next fall, and if tbe people want a comprehensive and altogether representative man among the law makers, they will let tbe choice rest with him. He is equal to the situation. o Salt lake indulged in three holidays last week Sunday, Wednesday (balfl and Thursday. Now If tbe next Legislaturo can only arrange it so as to give us a holiday every week, besides Sunday, and an election every month, our facllitlea for breeding political loafers and general worthless-nes- s would be greatly enhanced. This la truly a holiday-cursecommunity. o Last weeks Goodwin's Weekly had a mention of Senator A. P. Gorman, who died recently. He was compared with such men as Samuel B. Thurman of Ohio, a name which cornea too near that of the Provo Jurist to be a great one. Tbs man thought of doubt was Allen G. Thurman, one of tbe noblest Romans in tbe bunch. a: ' Alta, Utah, Wjignesday, June 20, J906. WIRELESS. No. 46. application for patent. CHEAP VISIT TO ENGLAND. M. A. No. 41IH1.
