He paid a fine tribute to Frank K. will do better to Nebeker, the Democratic candidate for district attorney, and spoke In pleasant terms of Senator Barber and Joseph Monson. As Judge King views It, says the Journal's report, the undue and unbecoming Influence that certain high ecdealaata are trying to exert In the coming election, and did exert In the Republican nominating conventions, will be one of the leading Issues of the campaign. Some people refuse to differentiate between the church and He said: certain Individuals in the church. No matter how high the principles of a cause may be, there are always some people In It who betray those high principles. The mere fact that some people high In the authorities of the church deserve criticism, does not warrant one In saying that the church Is ct being criticised.

The sieaker referred to the time when he went to congress as a representative of the Mormon people. He proudly proclaimed that he was a Mormon, and he preached MormonUm at every suitable opportunity. "But," he said, we were then attempting to do right. We had divided on party lines and we had sworn an eternal separation of church and state. What Is the condition today? A man from Utah meets with a feeling of resentment I will not stop to argue whether this Is just or unjust, BUT THE CAUSE OF THAT FEELING IS THE ACTION OF THE REPUBLICANS OF UTAH. A few years ago a person of great wealth, Thomas Kearns, made an unholy alliance with some of the church authorities and was elected to the United States senate. HE WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN ELECTED HAD IT NOT BEEN FOR APOSTLE REED SMOOT." The speaker asked the audience to turn back to Bible timea He pointed to the grand sermon of SL Peter on the day of PentacosL Then he asked what would have been the result to the early Christian church had St. Peter run for high ofllee In Asia Minor, or had he made himself a ward heeler in Rome. History has always demonstrated that when men use ecclesiastical power for political preferment they accomplish little for the people. In Utah we have the Republican party torn asunder. Some people affect to treat this ruction nun scorn and contempt, but they are mistaken. It turns back the wheels of progress fifteen years. Suppose the Republicans carry the coming election. Suppose Smoot's ticket triumph. What will be the result? The American party will Increase In strength and become WHY CANNOT niore of a menace to the public peace than It Is today.

Frank Wayland Higgins, who by the grace of Governor Odell Is the Republican nominee for governor of New York, promises, if elected, to be the governor of all the people. The New York Sun, the leading Reimpossible to publican paper of New York city, says this Is a promise keep; that, reduced to Its honest terms, Mr. Higgins's promise would be: I promise to be governor under Odell, and In the discharge of the duties of the office to be faithful to Odelllsm.' If the people of New York want Odellism to continue to prosper, unhindered and unpunished, they will elect Higgins. If they want Odelllsm driven out of all departments of the. state government, they will elect Herrick." That same language will apply equity to Utah by the substitution of the names of Smoot and Cutler for Odell and Higgins. Then the paragraph would read as follows: If the people of Utah want Smootlerlsm to continue to prosper, unhindered and unpunished, they will elect Cutler. If they want Smootlerlsm driven out of all departments of the state government, they will elect Moyle, who is not the candidate of any man or apostolic political boss, but the unanimous choice of the united Democratic party of this state. ln e 1203.

Every Democrat ln the city and county should turn out to the primaries next Monday, October 3rd. This is an Important matter which should not be overlooked. The prospects for Democratic success in Utah this year are good, and the only way to make success sure Is for all Democrats to do their duty. It is the duty of all good citlsens to attend the primary elections of their party. Two dollar wheat Is now predlcteed. President Roosevelt should issue a supplement to his letter of acceptance claiming credit for this great prospective Increase ln the price of the cereal.

Senator Cannon spoke at Huntsville on the senatorial candidates. Wlrile he was giving Senator Rawlins reedrd and dwelling on his high standlrgJn the senate, some hoodlum in the audience called out to. know why Smoot should not be elected. Cannon paused in his eulogy of Senator Rawlins just long enough to point his finger at the questioner and say: Be cause weve had trouble enough." If no other reason were offered for the defeat of the Republican ticket in Utah this year, that one would be enough: "Because we have had trou ble enough. Senator Cannon saw clearly the natural, the Inevitable results of the Provo apostle's ambition. He had been ln the United States senate himself as an honored representative of this state ; he knew the temper of the senate, its high regard for the traditions of tae fathers which reprehend anything like a union of political and religious forces In affairs of stnte; he anticipated the storm that would be raised and he had the courage to tell this people his fears. ri Senator Smoot and his coterie the predictions then made as th fevered Imaginings of partisans; he and his associates apparently believed that he could be the first and only man In all American history to unite high ecclesiastical and political office in one personality and go unscathed of attack. The very assumption of the man was enough to show his Ignorance of Anglo-Saxo- n history in its long struggle for emancipation from church domination in civil affairs; it was enough to demonstrate his entire and child-llk- e inability to comprehend the temper of the American people. Worse than that, it showed his willingness to stake the prosperity of Utah, its reputation ln the land, its Internal peace, all these he was willing to risk and for what? rtu:-ci'E- Was any issue involved so great that this risk to Utah was Justified? of Smoot ln particular, or any high eccieslast in general? Was there a single reason of any kind, special or general, demanding Smoot's selection for the highest office ln the gift of Utah, except Smoot's own consuming ambition to thrust hlmbelf forward as the Richelieu of his church and his ijtctyna ytaljna party? Common honesty and the sequence of events can give but one answer to that question. The unhappy consequence of this ambition gratified needs no recapitulation. Every cltlxen of Utah knows it; every cltlxen of every faith and every calling has had it ground Into him whether he has gone east or west or north or south, or whether he has staid at home. The question for solution, the question that will not down Is, what are we going to do about It? We have had trouble enough; what shall we do to stop it? It is unnecessary to discuss Smoot's Individuality that is not an issue, but his political ambition Is, and it will be an issue just so long as he is allowed to Intrude his apostolic office into political affairs here or in Washington. The Herald has said, and it repeats, that Senator Smoots individual life is all that could be desired; his buslines Integrity is unquestioned; his social and family relations are abdve reproach. But and this cannot be emphasised too much his political ambition has already Injured the state beyond calculation and unless he Is eliminated from politics In this state that injury will be trebled and quadrupled and perpetuated. If the situation were viewed only from a partisan standpoint, the Democracy of Utah could afford to encourage Smootism, lance it offers every hope of Democratic success; but as patriotic citlsens of Utah, Democrats and Republicans alike owe this state the Immediate and final repudiation at the polls of Smoot and all that Smootism means. One way, and one way only, lies peace. One way. and one way only, offers a solution of every perplexity confronting the political, the social and the business Interests of Utah. We have had trouble enough, and one way only will settle that trouble. That way Is In the election of the Democratic Did Smoot's eloquence, his knowledge of public affairs, his experience offer for the hasards he compensation thrust upon his state by his election?

Utah people, and all others, for that matter, who are and well Informed as to local conditions," the Reaper says, know some of the statements made during the congress session were absothat lutely unjust and uncalled for, as were the uctions of some of Portland's people after the question had been permanently disposed of, and some of them have suggested the Idea of retaliating by refusing to patronise the exposition. It would not be out of the way to boycott by refusing to attend the exposition, if the individual so desires, but refusing to exhibit there is a different matter. Utah would suffer more from action of that kind than would Portland.
