One OF the benefits accruing from the
oft vituperated society element, is a GER
tain amount of go" connected with what
ever is undertaken by society people.
There is nothing more laughed at or more
abused than the term society, nor is
there any element more sought after,
more revered, more influential than So
ciety. Let it be known that any under
taking is fostered by the society people
and it Immediately gains a zest that is
increased as it goes from one mouth to
another. This is particularly so of the
society women, they seldom fail in what
they undertake to carry through. I'm
fortunately the men sometimes over-reach
their own ability and the undertaking
fails lamentably. Just now the city has
planted within it's walls, the beginning of
what has the possibilities of becoming
one of the land marks, and is undoubtedly
supplying what has long been needed and
that is a children's hospital. But now a
Home for Little Sufferers has been thor
oughly equipped-a few necessaries are
yet needed-and this week will open its
doors to the youthful guests. 1t is rumor-
ed that many of the society girls have
pledged themselves to give several hours
of each month to relieve the trained nurse
in charge. About sixty names are on the
list, really more than at present are need
ed. The public are specializing as to those
who will be reliable and those who will
drop OF. But If the society girls go in
the footsteps Of their society mothers there
will be no such word as fail. And. really,
we all know it will be trying on a natural,
youthful, enthusiastic woman to decline
an invitation to a luncheon. a card party
and in the spring, a picnic to Greenwich,
in order to keep an appointment on a
child's ward, and yet none of us doubt
your ability or pluck, we all congratulate
you on both, and will watch with inter-
est your battle with the world, the flesh
and the devil, and wish all success TO your
young institution. Josephine Hill.

"REsoURcEs" IN POLITICS.

The Chicago. Herald of last Tuesday
contained the following note:
Utah will come into the union in 1895.
II the new constitution shall be framed
properly, and the legislature to be
elected next November will choose two
United States senators. The state is
likely to be very close between the
Democrats and Republicans, and its
three electoral votes will be of i'm
portance in the presidential election.
Therefore Republican newspaper
correspondent is moved to say: IF
Utah should become in any sense a
pivotal state there is no doubt the Re-
publican party would furnish all the
necessary resources to hold it. and in
such case they might probably. or at
least possibly, succeed" No doubt "the
necessary resoCr ces" will be poured
into every doubtful state, and, if the
election can be bought they will
buy it.
This shows two things: that the cleo
ton in Utah next year will be very i'm
portant as upon it may depend the
control of the Senate; and that the
Republican party intends to control
the new state at all hazards and at
any cost.
Everybody knows what the resources
Of civilization means, and there are
few II any who do not know what all
the necessary resources" to hold a
state means in politics. It means shat
money in any amount will be furnished
to carry a state. Money in politics.
when handled by skilled manipulators.
is great power, and d power generally
for evil. Those who are influenced by
it, although they may not be directly
bribed, are lacking in that spirit of
patriotism which should actuate every
citizen and voter. Whenever money is
used in politics, aside from defraying
what are conceded by all to be legiti-
mate campaign expenses it becomes a
corrupting influence, and those with
such influence.
There is a danger that this influence
may become more or. less potent in
Utah when she becomes a state The
people have it in their power to pre-
vent it and they should. If Utah shall
be either Democratic or Republican
from the conviction of her people, she
will not lose the respect of the Nation.
but if she is one or the other through
any party furnishing "the necessary
resources" to make it one or the other
and so make seats in the National
Senate and House a matter of pur-
chase, then she will become rotten
borough, that stigma which, when once
placed upon a state. is almost as in
delible as the mark of Cain. 1t is bet
ter a thousand times that Utah should
never become a state than that she
should after becoming enc degenerate
into rotten borough.
The people of this territory should
bear these things in mind We have
had no experience in national politics,
and it SO happens that we are about to
become a state at time when the con-
troll Of the Senate is in doubt and when
new Senators are particularly valu-
able, and when politicians do not scru-
pie to play all the resources" at their
command. AS our Chicago namesake
says, no doubt the necessary re-
sources will be poured into every
doubtful state. and if the election can
be bought, they will buy it,"

and Uncompahgre reservations. lie
succeeded in getting the bill passed for
that purpose in face of strong oppo-
siticn, and he will do all that is possi-
BILE to have the law carried out as soon
as that is practicable
His statement that Secretary Hoke
Smith approved of the terms of the
law before it was enacted, his approval
having been expressed in writing, will
be sufficient for all rational people as
against the nonsense and falsehood of
the Salt Lake Tribune, which it has
sought to impose on the people of
Utah.
There is positively no evidence that
Secretary Smith even objects to any
provision of the act. But if he does
dlsapprove of some portion of it, that
would not operate in the way charged
by the Tribune. The President alone
has the power to appoint the commits
sioners who are to examine and report
on the lands in the reservation. The
Secretary is not to blame if the Presi-
dent has been dilatory in making
those appointments.
We do not say there has been any
needless delay. If there has. Delegate
Rawlins will see that the business is
hurried up. But in any event Secre
tary Smith is not responsible for what
has occurred, and the Tribune's call
for his Impeachment and for Pc
titions and protests and other attacks
on the Secretary, for not doing what
he has no business to do, shows the
imbecility coupled with malice which
governs the editorial columns of that
decaying Republican sheet which is
mot Republican organ"
We shall no doubt hear more about
the opening of the reservations after
Delegate Rawlins reaches the seat of
government and has had time to get in
his good work. He's all right" and
his constituents expect to see him as
honored and successful during the
short session of the Fifty-third Con-
gress as he was in the first months Of
his brilliant congressional career.

PROTECTING PRISONERS.

When Lieutenant Oyler, acting I'M
der orders from Colonel Colt, at Wash
ington Court House, O., fired on mob
that was trying to take a prisoner
I from the custody of the officers. he was
merely unfolding the law Now an in
Vestigation into the occurrence is be-
ing held. It may be we'll to hold the
investigation, and if Colonel Colt and
those who acted upon his orders were
culpable, to have that fact made
known.
1t is well known that mobs are in
the habit of going to jails where men
are held, charged with crime, and de-
handing the keys of the jail, and
where refused bursting in the doors,
and taking the prisoner out and lynch
ing him, no resistance being made to
the mob, as rule, beyond a mere pro
test, and that not very vigorous.
The men who take a prisoner from
the officers and lynch him are guilty of
murder. although the sentiment of the
community may uphold them. This
does not palate their offense but mere
ly shows that spirit of lawlessness is
dominant III the community.
In the Washington Court House case
a mob gathered and was intent on
lynching man who was held charged
with heinous crime. The militia were
called out to assist those in whose Gus
tody he was held. The mob thought
they could override the law and those
who were thereto uphold its majesty
and they attempted it. When matters
had proceeded to extremes and they
