That Mexican Matter.
To the Sunday LIGHT:

~ ouuudy
Concerning the Mexican question: 1t
seems anomalous to me that In the case
made before the Federal court, the ap-
plicant should still be allowed to vote!
The contestants made so good show
papers till he should be more fully in
formed
Now II 1t should turn out that he Is
wholly ineligible his intention papers"
would count for nothing. Because that
intention" could never be effectuated.
So IL seems he Is allowed TO vote be-
cause. he is OF doubtful eligibility
doubt should have the opposite effect,
for 1t is not the policy of the government
to extend the rights Of suffrage to doubt
full applicants.
Another thing, how is 1t nothing is
done to expedite the matter?
Here is question of the first magni-
tude, Of vital Importance 10 the entire
state, for II is undisputed that thousands
and thousands of dollars OF the school
fund, are wasted on Mexicans along the
border to file up prodlgious demo-
cratic majority.
/ am told that the waste speak Of
goes TO Mexican strikers as salaries to
teachers" who do not speak our Ian
guage and who do not teach, If they
were so disposed.
That vote puts judge upon the bench,
term after term, who did not dare to meet
the most specific and astounding charges
of drunkenness and attempted rape. The
les islature did not dare TO diSobey the
voice Of the boss who herds the herds and
assures the party of reliable V re OF sucn
dimensions as may be requisitefspls Is no

Interest in the approaching National

form. Seventeen of the national riders,

have entered, among whom are Chas. L.
Wells, OF San Francisco, who holds the
three quarter mile pace record of the
world, and +. f. Schefski, of Salt Lake

Holy Trinity.
CORPUS CHRISTI.
Next Thursday is the feast Of Corpus
Christi. The phrase Is the Latin Ior
ordained for the celebration OF the Lords
goodness in instituting the blessed sacra-
ment. In Catholic countries the host Is
carried by the clergy through the streets
of the cities. but In the rest of the world
1t is borne through the church only. The
origin and allotment Of the feast Is as FOL.
lows: About the year 1890. nun named
Juliana, reported that she ha9 received q
vision from God, who desired special
feast set apart for the honor OF the
sacrament. She placed her case before
theologians and bishops, and finally be-
fore Pope Urban TX, who commanded the
feast to be celebrated throughout the
whole church. Urban died shortly after
the issue OF the bull, which was subse-
quently confirmed by Clement v and by
the request of the greater part OF the
clergy. The first Thursday after Trinity
was designated as the day for the feast.
This day was selected because on Thurs
day before He died the Lord Instituted
the eucharist, and because Trinity Sunday
closes the Easter duties and thus conflict
with any OF the feasts of the season dedi-
Gated to the resurrection OF the LORD is
avoided.
