JOURNAL PUBLISHING CO. THE OFFICIAL PAPER OF WEBER COUNTY. THE PRESIDENTS MESSAGE. is an evident determination on the part of Roosevelt to keep congress right at Its knitting for the balance of the aessiun. His message sent to both houses yesterday at a late hour, th fourth message of the session, is evidently the outgrowth of a fear that adjournment would come before some of the measures upon which the President has set hla heart would fall of THERE ' that has been prominent In the minds a n JB'eoat.

TOM JOHNSONWINS. f EVEN CANNON BOWS. power of the press In this country has never a clearer exemplification than In the announce' ment from Washington, D. C, to the effect that Speaker Joseph O. Cannln has agreed to call a caucus of the Republican members of the house of representatives to dis cues the wood pulp and print paper question, provided i sufficient number of the Republican membeis of the house ask for the caucus. If the aetkm of the caucus, which will undoubtedly be held, ia favorable Speaker Cannon will permit the question to be discussed on the Boor of the bouse. Persona who have been following this contest be tween th newspaper publishers of the country and the ' paper trust will realise the significance of this sur render of Speaker Cannon to the newspaper men. They will realise what a tremendous force the press of the country Is when it ia thoroughly aroused on a question. It was the evident determination o fthe admlnlstra tlon leaders in Washington to prevent any discussion of tariff and trusts at this session to push that question entirely out of the campaign, to shove it into the back ground until after the presidential election was disposed of. The paper trust and all other allied Interests were in hearty sympathy with this program. Speaker Cannon did hi best to side-trar- k the question. He had it referred to Secretary Bonaparte and thought it would re- TI1E main in that department until after congress adjourned. But Herman Bidder, at tho head of the newspaper publishers, got after it and chased it out of the department of Justice back into the house. Then Speaker Cannon had appointed a special committee to investigate the whole matter and report back to the house report hack some time away off In the dim and distant future after the present political crisis was out of the way. But again he was foiled. Herman Bidder seems to have some of the same stuff In him that made William the Silent one of the great characters in history. Without giving Speaker Cannon and his colleagues a moment's peace he kept after them, night and day, and the final upshot is that the Speaker has' surrendered. The caucus of the Republican members wilt be called, and unless Speaker Cannon can think of some other ex pedlent for choking off debate on this Important ques tlon the workings of the paper trust wM be laid bare before the nation.

There on an area of 107, 000 aqunre miles a little larger than Utah, a little smaller than Nevada 40.000,000 poor wretches are congregated, .and their lives are a steady struggle for existence from the cradle to the grave. A partial failure of crops means death to thousand! of them. It la a wonder that they do not all either become insane or turn to be brigands.

The Toggery -- inter-stat- CL coal lands. sub-slda- ry Inter-stat- from India telling of the rebellion QUESTION TUESDAY, APRIL 28, 1909. JOURNAL, of many thinking men in recent years is effectively touched upon by the Sacramento Bee. We have reference to private monopoly in cual lands. The Bee says: The purchase of 12,006 acres of coal lands in Arisons former Senator W. A. Clark of Mon tans, from a priby vate owner, drams fresh attention to the bad error made by the Federal Government when lama mere enacted allowing the Nation's stores of coal to pass into the absolute ownership of Individuals and corporations. Th result has been to build up great monopolies in one of the necessaries of life, manufacturing and transportation Coal mining companies havs combined with railroads to extort high prices from the public for fuel, and create arilticial scarcity to afford pretexts fur arbitrary increase of prices. In numerous Instances railroads, through corporations, have iheinselvts acquired extensive coal lields and established a monopoly, under pretense of providii.g fuel for tlieir engines and shops. Thus, iu various ways, millions of acres of coal lands that should liave been held under public ownership, and mined under contract in accordance with Government regulations to moderate price and prevent monopoly evils, have passed into th hands of trust and transportation companies. In like manner enormous deposits of iron ore, in the Lake Superior region and elsewhere, have been lost to The People and fallen Into the dutches of the Steel Trust, which also has great coal fields. And thus, with steamship lines, ralhoads and coke ovens, it Is In control of the raw material of produettm and means of transportation, that its monopoly la permanently established. Yet there was never need of allowing the title to coal or iron deposits to past from the Government, for these price e properties could and should have been mined on a royalty basis, on such liberal terms as would have encouraged private enterprise mithout creating monopoly and all the evils in its train. - enactment. This seems particularly true with reference (o legia latton on the subjects of combinations of labor and capital. The recommendations of the President on these points are by far the moat Important of the message. Federal power e to control corporations doing business la the Rooseto of the hour need President crying according velt lie points out that the federal courts are totally helpless when it comes to curbing the power of great corporations. He ia not sure that power vested in the executive department of the government will bring relief under present conditions, although he seems to expfcct much from a provision placing the burden of proof on the corporation as to whether It has a right to exist A federal Incorporation law with power to license and e corporations Is clearly foreshadow regulate all ed by the President It would seem to be too late in the session to take np any new measures of great importance. Congress has agreed to adjourn May 18, and if the bills now under consideration are disposed of a tremendous amount of work will have been done. But whatever the outcome President Roosevelt has succeeded In putting his views on a number of questions that ara to cut' important figures in the presidential campaign, clearly before the voters of the entire country. . THE UTAH 1TATE 44 The Clothes Store OF CHICAGO POLICE . ,OM JOHNSON, the. picturesque mayor of Cleveland, has won hla fight for a three-cefare on the street car lines of hla city after a fight that hae run through all the degrees of bitterness for the past seven years. It is a fight that has attracted the attention of the entire country. The final outcome ia likely to have a influence. In hla last race for th mayoralty Johnson nt April 28. John J.

The dispatches today carry the information that at the meeting of th city council of Cleveland last night the Cleveland Railway company took over nil the properties of the old corporations. After the adjournment of the city council the final paper closing the deal were signed and the deal was complete. There la more in this than low street oar fare for the citisene of Cleveland.
