TIME " WAS DONE.

One OF the most unsatisfactory con.
tiDgencies In modern American poll
tics Is the occasional failure Of STATE
Legislatures TO elect United States
Senators. This year four instances OF
such failures occurred. Ia Delaware.
California, Pennsylvania and Utah. 1t
Is sill an open question whether whom
such failure occurs the State must
nse Its representation or whether the
Governor has the constitutional right
10 appoint. In either case the dlssat-
isfaction OF a large part of the people
Is certain. 1t Is certainly time that
a remedy was provided for suon cases.
OF course the best remedy would be
the popular election of United States
Senators, but that remedy looks TO us
as very remote.
Another remedy was proposed In tho
last Utah Legislature providing that
candidates for United States Senator
must die intentions with the Secretary
OF State. that their names should APP
pear on the official bsllois aud that
they should be voted for the same as
other candidates Numerous objections
were offered to this solution and the
measure was defeated. Now comes
forard United States Senator VIM, NJ.
Stewart OF Nevada, who proposes the fol-
lowing addition IN the present statute;
IF on the third Tuesday after the
organization OF the legislature no per-
son has recsived such majority then on
that day or any succeeding day the
person receiving the plurality OF tina
votes cas'. q majority Of all the mem
bers elected 70 both houses being pres

statement,
"Robertshad been dropped from the
Democratic party. His name was no
more mentioned in party councils, save
Ms the names OF the dead are spoken.
He was picked up by high officers OF

apparent from the day the two candi-
dates were named that the Republican

Now In point Of fact the Tribune
has no reasonable grounds for any OF
these assertions. At the time Of the
Statehood election, Utah was strongly

Last year he went before the Demo-

We may also note that Judge Il. N.
Bsskin. Roberts running mate. and
nom Mormon, received very close to the
Roberts vote even against that popular
judicial candidate. Judge Q. s. Zane.
As n non.Mormon Democrat the writer
believes that Hon. B. II. Roberts was
nominated as a Democrat solely, and
that his NOMINATION. was due to his
abilities. worth and services In the no.
blc cause Of Democracy. and not as
the Tribune says "because he was
Mormon and polygnmist." We do
not believe that Hon. Al ma Eldredge,
as the Tribue says. twas nominated TO
be BEATEN but rather because he was
believed by the party leaders TO be
strong man and one who could unite
the bsdly-fraciured Republican party.
That he was defeated was due to the
fact that Utah Is a Democratic State
and that the Democratic candidats re-
ceived the party vote as Democrat
and not az Mormon. II the Demo-

within scoring distance but try for
goal from field By Totten failed by a
few feet. On the return kick from the
touchback the ball went 40 Yards.
Rock Island again tore up Daven-
ports line and circled their ends
until the bali was on Davenport's 20
yard line when time was called to end
the first half.
Rock Islands only score came early
in second half, Davenport losing the ball
on the 45-yard line on u tumble aft r
having carried it back 20 yards.
Rock Island tried end runs with good
success, the efforts of Hodgdon, To-
ton and Stafford carrying the ball
continuously to Davenport 1-yard
line, when Hodgdon was pushed over
for touchdown. No goal was
kicked.
The remainder of the half was
marked by extremely loose defense by
Rock Island, which resulted in two
more touchdowns for Davenport,
goals being made both times. To-
ward the close of the game Totten re-
tired in Souders' favor. The bail was
in Davenport's possession most of the
second half. and they made good use
of it. Time was called with the
bali in the center of the field in Rock
Islands possession.

favor in the principal roles of Jack

were some pleasing specialties by
several mem bers of the company, the
clever acting and singing of Jessamine

The secret of the success of The

appeals with equal force to all classes
of people, from the habitual play-pa

visits a theatre except to witness Il
production of this character. In
writing The Christian" Mr.. Cnine
kept in mind the cardinal principle
that play is to amuse, and not a
vehicle for the conveyance of a relig-
ious precept; at the same time, he
teaches Il moral lesson in this drama
which, but incidental to its action
and not forced on the attention of the
audience, is none the less strong and
effective. Tunis +. Dean, represent
