The fact is, almost everybody has a
weak spot somewhere. Death and dis

its proper work, if your body fails to

TRUSTS. WAGES AND PROFITS.


The object of trust is to crush COM
petition, to limit production. TO control
prices and to build up a monopoly in
the line of goods in which it deals.
That these trusts are enabled to do
this by reason of Republican tariff leg
islation is admitted by Republican
journals. which ask that the tariff be
taken off articles controlled by the
trusts as a remedy for the trust evil.
But Chairman Hanna of the national
Republican, committee. present pilot Of
the ship of state. says that trusts are
all right and should be left alone.
The Republican argument in favor of
trusts, according to Judge Nash. the
administration governor-el of Ohio.
is that they are beneficial because they
reduce the cost of production. thus
making it possible to pay better wages
to employees and furnish cheaper goods
to consumers
In REPUTATION of this stock argument

But let us see in what proportion; let

thorities decide. both political parties
in the nation win grow suspicious Of it
and disguised with it and the church
will gradually lose all the friends it has
in either party.
The Mormon hierarchy. like any
church hierarchy. says our Boston
contemporary. when it undertakes to
interfere with state affairs. becomes a
danger. The essential tyranny Of this
hierarchy in its original institution was
patent to every observer. AS long as
the church exists it must be continued
to more or less extent, and it is almost
sure to be exercised to the disadvan-
tage of the people. 1t is vitality opposed
to the spirit of our institutions, because
it creates a government within a gov
eminent. The constitutional govern
ment is the state government: the in
reference of the church. as an organ
ization, with political affairs tends to
make the church control the state gov
eminent. The Mormon church is con-
stantly doing this. There has not been
an election held since Utah became
state when its hand was not apparent.
If congress can act in any way to dis
countenance or prevent this. practical
good will be realized. We do not say
that it can. We fear that its fussing
about polygamy will have the reverse
effect. The poisonous tree should be
assailed at its heart. not attacked by
looping off ole of its decaying
branches"

WASHINGTON AND HIS POLICY.

There has never been a time in
the history of this nation when the
commemoration Of Washingtons great
ness could be so peculiarly opportune
as it is today. During the past week.
celebrations have been held all over
the country, calling attention to the
life and deeds and policy of the great
est of all Americans. For the first time
since his death, the tributes to his
name have been tinged with partisan
views; for the first time his creed of
Americanism has been called antiquat-
ed and the keystone of his policy crit,
icised as one of a number of sacred
delusions9' His idea. held in common
with other founders of the nation-that
free and equal in civil rights-is held
up TO scorn as an idealistic theory in
capable of attainment. Having in
mind this new and extraordinary de-
parture from the traditions of our gov
eminent it is worth while to study
anew washington's own declarations
and his reasons for the belief he held.

SOME SENSE FROM BOSTON.

A correspondent calls attention to the
Boston Heralds view of the all absorb
ing Roberts case. 1t appears TO be a
fair estimate of conditions here-far
more so than eastern newspapers are
in the habit of giving.
In the main it is the view The Her
aid has taken from the beginning of the
present crusade.
"The progress of events in Utah is
such as to render unnecessary a cru
SADIE against polygamy." says our Bos-
ton contemporary, and it adds: I'VE
think, in view of these conditions, that
the Importance of preventing the entry
into congress of a polygamist is over
rated. Our impression is that a crusade
against polygamy in the Mormon
church would be waste of effert. and
perhaps worse. If left alone polygamy
is sure to die out there, as 1t is dying
out already. If the house of represent
atives exerts its authority to turn a
man out of his seat ON this ground. the
natural cry in Utah will be that it is
case of persecution, and it is to be
remembered that the Mormon church
has In the past thrived on persecution,
and may find it convenient to Use acts
of persecution to sustain its power in
the future. There is not enough to be
gained in expelling the present member
to risk giving that church this advan-
tage. We find in the Mormon HER
archy the worst feature of Mormonism.
and the most formidable embarrass-
ment 10 the success of republican in
situations in Utah and to her harmony
with her sister states of the Union as a
member of the United States confed-
eracy."
This is the source of all the trouble
reasons the Boston paper. for while
the people are divided politically ac-
cording to ecclesiastical design so that
the state and county elections can be
thrown whichever way the church au-
