MR.. HOBART'S SUCCESSOR.

Vice President 'Hobart's relapse has
started speculation again concerning
his successor as Mr.. McKinley's run
ming mate. As the time draws near
for the assembling of new congress
politicians are wondering who will take
his place as presiding officer of the SEN
ate until his successor is duly elected
and installed by the people.
The senate has made provisions for
such an emergency in the election of a
president pro tenn. to hold the place in
definitely, and be always ready to take
the place of the vice president should
he be incapacitated or absent. At the
last session of the senate Senator Frye
Of Maine was elected president pro
tenn, and, therefore, he will call the
senate to order when it meets next
month. 1t is entirely within the discre-
ton of the senate to continue Senator
Frye in his position or substitute some
one, else. But Senator Frye, like Vice
President Hobart, is exceedingly pop
ular with his colleagues, and in all
probability he will be allowed to serve
as long as he desires.
There is a limit to the possibilities
of a president of the senate pro tenn.
He cannot succeed TO the presidency of
the republic as the vice president could
A few years ago, after the death Of
Vice President Hendricks, congress
passed law which provided that, in
the case of the death or incapacity of
the president. the vice president should
succeed to the position of president,
and in case of the death or vacancy in
the position of vice president. the men,
bers of the cabinet should be in line
for the presidency. in the order of their
seniority. beginning with the secretary
of state. Therefore, Secretary Hay, in
the case of the death of Vice President
Hobart, is next in rank, and then fol-
low the other members of the cabinet
in the following order: Secretary of
the Treasury Gage, Secretary of War
Root, Attorney General Griggs. Post
master General Smith, Secretary of the
Navy Long and Secretary of the Inter
Tor Hitchcock. The rank of the men,
bers of the cabinet is given to them in
the order Of the creation of their re-
epective departments. Secretary of
Agriculture Wilson is not in line of
succession. as that department was
not created when the law was passed.

WHAT WILL DEWEY DO?

Being a hero has its drawbacks. Pop
ularity is well enough until the mo-
ment when lone wants to be alone. y
for an honest man to fear, but they are
very embarrassing when he is on his
wedding trip. The public has never
taken its glance from the admiral
since he landed in New York. 1t is
fairly devouring him with hungry OPP
tics. Under the circumstances the
admiralS wish to have a quiet we'd
ding was out of reason. He should
have known better than to have asked
for it. And when a steamer load of
people took their places across the deck
from Mr.. and Mrs. George Dewey en-
route from Washington to New York
the other day, he was doomed to be
ogled to the end of the trip.
The bride didn't mind it a bit, the
adulation as is her distinguished hus-
band. and she has been longer accus-
toned to it, perhaps. AS The Herald
suggested yesterday. this wedding
may have some bearing on the next
presidential campaign. 1t will depend
upon Mrs. Dewey's ability to overcome
her husbands diffidence and aversion
to political life.
From Washington newspapers and
letters it seems to be the universal
opinion that his new wife will have a
good deal to say if the admiral is
tempted very much with offers Of a
presidential nomination. The female
opinion is that Mrs. Dewey, who is an
ambitious woman, will throw her
weight in favor of her husband enter
ing politics and accepting the presi-
Dental nomination, if offered. Mrs
Hazen-Dewey, having lived so long in
Washington. is a thorough politician
and to her the position of the first lady
of the land is a tempting one. On the
other hand, the opinion of the men and
politicians is that it is too late now
for the admiral to think of such a
thing. even if the ambitions of his
bride could secure him the desired
prize. This opinion, however. origin
ated with Hanna and may not have a
very pronounced effect upon the sister
of John r. Mclean, in whose cam
paign she took a very great interest.
Republicans OF the Hanna stripe are
considerably alarmed and have para
phrased the popular refrain so that it
runs like this: What will Dewey

to turn the scale at the last moment,
whether it is able to accomplish its OBJ
jet or not, there will always be room
to doubt the enforcement OF church and
state in Utah, there will always be
foundations for such charges as the
Republican organ has been making
against the church and It's members for
year past.
No one who has watched the course
of the Salt Lake Tribune since the di-
vision on party lines has a bit of conf
dence in its professions of sincerity or
it's simulations of outraged morality
That its purpose was to intimidate the
heads of the dominant church into re-
specting its wishes has been apparent
for long time: that this was the sole
object sought will become more appaf-
ent hereafter; whether it succeeded or
not may be judged from the fact that
p. H. Lannan, forty-eight hours be-
fore the News editorial of Saturday
evening came out, advised his asso-
ciates in the cyclone business that such
an article would appear. Furthermore,
he outlined its tone in advance. and
made on the church by the Republican
organ. Gentiles were led 10 believe
that the church people had to be re-
buked on account of the wholesale
charges made against them and their
leaders by Crusader Owen and the
storm starter. On the eve of the cleo
ton the church organ, reversing its
regular order of telling the people to
vote for the best men, insisted on
their standing by party at all hazards.
The result was easily foreseen and
gleefully foretold by Boss Lannan.
Either the Deseret News failed to see
the point, or it deliberately entered into
a conspiracy with the Tribune to elect
the Lannan ticket, vinoicate the cru
SADIE and rebuke the church. 1t was
either stupidity or a deliberate bar
gain. In either case the storm starter
made a monkey of the church organ
and burnt its paws. Nor is. it credit
able to our evening contemporary to
attempt to justify it's course under
these circumstances by claiming that
it was well paid or paid at all for do
ing SO. Newspapers that make great
pretensions of honesty and righteous
ness should not be of such easy vir-
tue.

ADJUSTMENTS.

A full house was on hand at the Salt
Lake theatre last night to witness
George H. Broadhurst's latest farce
offering, why Smith Left Home
While it may be true that the company
seen here is not in every respect equal
to the one which has kept the piece
running so successfully in New York,
the actors last night for the most part
succeeded in drawing much fun out of
the lines. AS regards plot, the play is
quite in line with the majority of farce
comedies, and the chief trouble with US
nowadays is that we are surfeited with
plays about Smith, Brown, Jones. etc.
AS a consequence, most of the situations
have grown to seem a bit stale. 1t
isn't our fault or the fault of each in
dividual playwright. it is just a case
of too much of a good thing. AS re-
CARDS the subject in hand, there is one
rcfreshingly original, up-to-date fea-
ture in why Smith Left Home" and
this is the Cooks Protective associa-
ton feature. 1t was the hit of the
performance. With all the appalling
phases of the question slightly exag-
gerated. it was a capital hit of

called The Beers are primitive. stolid,
progressive and ignorant. But that
is no excuse for their determination. as
suggested by the Hanna organ
Yesterday the Tribune quoted from
these columns the following sentence:
Had tine Beers settled in a less re-
sourceful region than the Transvaai,
they would have escaped contact with
civilization probably for another GEN.
tury or so.'' 1t tried to make out that
this is a different opinion from that
held by The Herald regarding their old
fashioned notions of religion and gov
eminent On the contrary, it is exactly
what this paper has always maintain
ed. What we object to is our neighbor' S
policy of determination, which is IN line
with the notions of all imperialists.
People who do not agree with them
should be killed. Nations that do not
meet their requirements should be
wiped out. Races that are not up to
their ideals must be exterminated. And
this is Imperialism.
The Hanna organ seems to be in full
accord with an article from Harper
Weekly which is being circulated in the
east and in England since the begin
ming of the Transvaal war. 1t classes
nese together and advocates the exter-
mination of the lot. 1t reads like a
Tribune editorial; here 1t is:
The African Beers are, as the poet OBJ
serves, remote, unfriended. melancholy,
archal and pastoral Standardization upon
the modes of the Old Testament. That
standardization Is in direct opposition to
the civilization of our time. 1t has been
was remote" But when the territory
that it occupied in its slow and melan-
cnoly way began to yield gold and dia-
monds, the state of patriarchal isolation
was doomed. What has happened, is hap
penfng, and is about to happen TO the
Beers. has happened to the Mormons. 1t
Is what must happen to every people
which cherislhes a notion of civilization
widely different from the accepted Euro
pean standard. Such a people can main
tain itself only by isolation When civil
ization grows up to 1t, ii must yield or
die. That is what happened in Utah: that
is what is happening in the Transvaai;
that IS what is happening in China. Moth
ing can save the peculiar people when
civilization catches up TO them but a fresh
migration. They must ''inspann and trek"
That is what the Beers did, until they
c0uld 90 IL no longer mat IS what the
Mormons did. until the Union Pacific rail-
road overlook them. But the Beers and
the Mormons, and, for that matter. the
Chinese, are now at the end of their
tether. They must be assimilated to what
progressive nations regard as civilization,
or they must disappear from the earth.
To quote the exact language of our
Republican contemporary again:
1T is an enlightened savagery which
can only be beaten by determination.
This is imperialism.

Heavy furniture and rugs are wholly

handle them. Heavy draperies can
never be sanitary unless frequently
cleaned; if proper provision cannot be
made for doing this they should be dis
penSed with. Exquisite cleanliness is
the primary essential of good house
keeping; therefore. domestic architec-
ture and interior decoration should be
conditioned first of all upon this re-
quirement. Every additional elabora-
ton in living involves more labor or
less hygienic conditions. This limita-
ton should never be overlooked in
furnishing the house.
Finally, when wholesomeness and
suitability have been fully considered,
the sense of beauty may be gratified.

, beauty, except the beauty of nature,
is costly, either in money or thought.
Only an artist can produce beautiful
effects without money. Here and there
are people born with the sense of fit
ness and beauty; to them such magic
may be possible, but in the majority of
mankind the sense of beauty is an in
stinct of slow growth, developed only
by careful cultivation.
To summarize, then: The interior of

pie who live in it: ii is a reflection of
them. 1t should be the outgrowth of
their tastes and habits However va

public and formal, but homely and un
ceremonious. The beauty of nature
when properly interpreted, is the best
guide to the art of man. Subordina-

nature lends to art. Health. appropri-

which should determine the kind and

tons in a particular case In the fol-

of these principles will be discussed.

The resolution passed by the Build
ing Trades Council on Wednesday
night. directing a general tie-up to go
in effect on Monday next. was one OF
the principal topics of conversation on
the streets yesterday.
While some are inclined to think that
1t will lead to speedy termination of
the existing trouble. there are others
who say that the end is still far away.
At any rate, it is not expected that the
Builders Exchange will take any ac-
tion before Monday.
Secretary Laudig, Of the Exchange,
said yesterday that he had been in
structed TO say that there has not been
and will not be any change in the posi-
tion taken by the members.
The woodworking establishments
which, it is claimed, will be Obliged
to shut down in case the tie-up goes
into effect are as follows John Benore
& Sons, Washburn & Williams com
pany, Peck Lumber company, Scran-
ton Woodworking company, Greer
Ridge Lumber company and Mason &
Snowden.
All of these firms have extensive
plants and the strikers say that the
owners will be at a tremendous loss II
they are closed down.
The other side claims that the mills
are not working full time and that the
largest portion of the manufactured
goods are being used to fill up stock
The strikers introduce a counter argu
ment that shops which are not pro
ducing any work at all are more at 6
loss than shops which are producing
work, even if the latter is used FOL
stock, it nevertheless has a greater in.
trinsic value than it had in the rougl
state.
The carpenters are receiving thei
weekly benefits regularly and this tends
to all the more stronger intrench then
in their position.
The timers -plasterers' strike is at q
complete standstill the master timer.
and the master plumbers evidently in
tending to not take any action unit
the members of the Exchange take the
| initiative.
