Democracy spoke in no uncertain
tones at the great meeting in the Salt
Lake theatre last night. 1t was the
largest gathering ever seen in that
building since the time when Bryan
was a candidate and all the hosts of
silver assembled to hear the words of
truth proclaimed. 1t was an enthusi-
astic meeting, too. Every sentiment
uttered by the speakers was caught up
and applauded TO the echo. The meet
ing OF the night before was as an Ice
berg compared to a. furnace.
The speakers were Colonel Ellis,
Senator Matte Hughes Cannon, Hon.
w II. King and Judge Powers. The
first speaker delivered an able address,
replete with the poesy of rhetoric and
redundant with sound sentiment of
Democracy. He was cheered many,
many times. the audience being in en-
tire sympathy with him. Senator Can
non made a hit when she took the
platform, and the people applauded the
little woman for the womanly stand
she assumed in behalf of the Demo-
cratic candidates. When she declared:

not my candidate, and, with Mrs.

No state convention of Democrats has

especially in New York, where it was

governor a personal friend and ardent
supporter of Mr.. Bryan was selected.
The Republicans frequently charge
the Democratic party with being the
friend of gold. This is untrue. On
every occasion since 1885 three-fourths
at least, and nine-tenths twice, of the
members of that party in congress ar
rayed themselves on the side of silver.
The Democracy of this nation had a
hard and weary road in fighting the
gold men in it's own party, but it sue
ceeded, and two years ago threw them
out of the party and declared that
no measures for the revision of tariff
until the money question is settled. 1t
declared that all great questions, ex-
cept those which of necessity arise, I'M
til the silver question shall have been
finally disposed of. This principle is
bound to continue until it is settled.

The fact that the chief executive
spoke, gave to the words uttered great
er import than they would otherwise
possess. 1t is insisted that he spoke as
a patriot, animated only by an un-
selfish and sincere desire for the well
fare of Utah: that his words were ut
tered that we might have peace in this
state. once so sadly distracted, and
that Utah might turn her face to the
rising sun and her back to the hideous
past. 1t is, therefore we'll to ascertain
at the outset whether Governor Wells
spoke as a patriot out of love for
Utah, or spoke as partisan, that the
Republican party might succeed and
the Democrats be forced, as John
Henry Smith so delicately suggested
last night to scratch Republican
backs" If Governor Wells spoke with

The relation OF electricity to life Is a
puzzle that has interested manv minds.
In the subtle nature OF that force which
used to be known as the electric fluid"
there is unquestionably something
which suggests the vet subtler lie
principle. Though quacks abuse the
analogy to cheat the sick. their frauds
do not make the truth any less true.
And the truth Is that life Is force and
electricity Is force, and they must be
in some way related 1t Is hard to study
the finer effects OF electricity upon ami
NAL life. Animals may be killed by the
"fiuid." or In some cases seemingly
helped by 1t. but the result OF any long
series OF experiments Is spoiled by the
difficulty of measuring any change. It
Is possible that the way to approach
this subject Is not SO direct as some
would make 1t. but must start with
plain life, and so work up 10 man. The
life Of q plant Is not altogether differ
ent from that OF an animal, but It Is
simple, and the results OF experiments
upon X can be much more easily meas
ured. 1t Is possible that the expert
ments in electrical farming which are
being made at the Massachusetts Ag-
ricultucal college at Amherst, may be
the beginning OF discoveries that will
not stop with plants. The workers there.
under the direction OF Henry G. Good
ell, Ii. D., are proceeding in per-
fectly scientific manner. fully measur-
ing every step before they take the next
one. Thus far they have proven that
certain kinds of electric currents nm
piled in accurately measured amounts
produce definitely measurable effects on
plant lie. Electricity properly applied
stimulates the growth OF plant. The
experiments OF the last year upon white
mustard, red clover, barley and other
products OF the field. prove that right
~ regulated electric current increases
growth from thirteen 10 forty per cent.
The subject has been studied for one
hundred and fifty years. but never at
anE time or place has the work been so
accurately scientific or nearly so con-
elusive.

President Whitaker. OF the New York
state Dor Association, Is possessed ofa
robust moral courage rarely displayed
In any walk OF life. He Is brave enough
to put his Eager on one Of the uslIest Of
moral ulcers, and to tell his professional
brethren that they are responsible for
II. He asserted In his address At the
annual meeting OF the associa ton last
week that perjury Is committed In at
leas. five out OF every ten litlgated
cases." and he followed this startling
statement with the remark that III the
lawyers OF this state would discourage
false swearing by their own clients and
honestly endeavor to have II punished
when committed by. the clients OF their
adversaries, the crime OF perjury would
grow suddenly less.
4 The post" has frequently discussed
the alarming prevalence OF perjury In
the courts, and has intimated that II
the legal profession would set Its face
against this crime. great reform might
be effected, remarks the Washington
Post" But thls eminent attorney,
speaking from the results Of his long
and varied experience at the bar, goes
farther than the POST has ever felt
Justified In going In estimating the ex-
tent OF. and locating the responsibility
for, this felony. President Whitaker viz
tually charges that the lawyers Of the,
state Of New York do not discourage
false swearing by theie own cllents,and
do not honestly try to have, Il punished
when committed by the clients Of their
ndversarles. In other words. the lawyers
encourage perjury on their side OF 4
case and wink at It on the other side.
And. as the inevitable result Of this de-
plorable lack OF professional morality.
perjury Is committed in at least half OF
the litlGated cases!
Government In this country. national.
state and local, Is mainly In the hands
of the lawyers. They are the controlling
influence in law making; they hold most
OF the important executive positions,
