Getting 1t Down Fine.

-THERE are those who are not so
sure that Mr.. Henderson will be
the next speaker Of the house
he has critics in certain of the admin
istration organs who have discovered
that Henderson Is not an advocate of
the policy by which it is proposed to
retire the greenbacks and who have
also become satisfied that he is not as
ardent an expansionist as the McKin-
ley programme may stand in need of
when the war with the Filipinos is a
little older.
These critics of Henderson are reach
ing toward him in curiously round
about way. They urge that f t1e .liec-
essary deaths occur, the office of pres
ident might devolve upon him by
right of succession and that then there
would be trouble, because he is not a
native-born American and therefore
cannot be president
A zig-zag course has to be pursued
to bring one to this conclusion. In the
first place clause of the federal con-
stitution provides that "In case of the
or of his death, resignation or inability
to discharge the powers and duties of
said office, the same shall devolve upon
the vice president; and the congress
may by law provide for the case of re-
moval, death, resignation or inability
| of both president and vice president,
| declaring what officer shall then act as
president, and such officer shall act ac-
cordingly until the disability be re-
moved or president elected"
The law of succession IN force at
the time when the death of Vice Presi-
dent Hendricks made Senator ingalls,
president pro tenn of the senate, acting
vice president fixed the succession after
the vice president upon the speaker
but under section of article IL of the
constitution congress passed a new law
placing the secretary of state next In
line after the vice president. Follow
ing the secretary of state comes the
secretary of the treasury, and thus the
succession runs through the list of the
cabinet officers.
The question lately raised involves
the eonstitutionality of the actor
taken by congress in establishing ths
succession to the presidency. 1t is
| pointed out that the presidents cabinet
is the creation of laws enacted by con,
gress, whereas the speakership is vir
tually provided for in the constitution
The claim is set up that the wore
Officer used in the clause of the con.
stitution we have just quoted refers
to an officer for whose appointment
the constitution itself provides, an6
| that cabinet officers do not answer the
description. 1t is therefore commended
that in case of vacancies in the Office
of president and vice president, the
succession would pass to the speaker
and not to the cabinet officers, as pro
vided in the legislation we have re.
! ferred to.
The logic of all this ingenious stud,
is that Henderson must not be speaker
because, if he is, he is liable to be
president and that his foreign brit
bars that. Possibly this contention
will prevail and the Iowa man b,
turned down; but that isn't at all prob
able. The fact remains that If Hen.
derson does win he will be the frs
man of foreign birth in the office o.
| speaker.

WE do not blame those people
either in or out of the Legislature
who are fighting the passage OF the
woman's suffrage bill, who do so
because they think they are dong
right. We respect all men in their
belief, whether right or wrong, so
long MS they are sincere. Bat we
do blame and ceusure those who
knowingly and wilfully attempt to
mislead our lawmakers as to
the wishes Of the people OF
a county as the Bulletin did last
week in regard 20 the woman,s
suffrage bull. If Mr.. Olney is, as
the Bulletin claims, fighting this
bill, we believe he is doing so with
q full conviction that he is doing
his duty, that he is rendering to
his country his best services.
But when the Bulletin assured him
and the balance Of the Legislators
that the people of Graham county
were with him in his fight for It's
defeat, it made a statement that is
without foundation. Mr.. Olney's
open fight, If he believes he ls
right, is commendable, but the
Bulletm'S statement, knowing it to
be false, is despicable, We do not
claim that all the people of GA
ham county are in favor of woman
suffrage, by any means, but we do
know that a large majority of
them are, and whether they are
right or wrong on this PROPOSE
ton, we do not propose to see
them misrepresented by and paper,
unchalenged.

Council Bill, number As, intro
duccd by Mr.. Goldberg, while at
first glance it appears to be all
right and for the best interest OF
all the tax payers, yet after care
fully weighing all the facts and
circumstances and carefully con-
sldering the circumstances of the
people at different seasons of the
year, we have arrived at the con-
clusion that the law would be a
bad one for the county as we'll as
for the people.
This bill provides that one halt
the taxes may be paid on or before
the third Monday in December
and the other half on or before the
third Monday in June following
IL also provides that if the amoun'
due on the third Monday in De
cember is not paid then tho whole
amount becomes delinquent anc
the penalty added.
If any change is to be made il
the collection Of taxes it would b.
better to make the whole amour
payable one month later than the,
now are, or on or before the thir,
Monday in January. This chang
would be for the better for by tha
time all produce has reached it
maximum market price and will
give the people generally, a bette
opportunity of meeting their take,
Generally the people have NOR
money during the fall and wInte
; than they do during the spring an
summer, and are better able to pa
the whole of their taxes even o
the third Monday in Decembe
than they are to pay one half {
them in June.
We believe change of date o

! would be beneficial, but to pay

THE SPIRIT OF PERSECUTION
DIES HARD.
The Arizona .Slrer Belt SAYS:

"The i,lea that our advance as a
nation in civilization and intel.
Iigence mas made people and sects
more tolerant of one anOthers be-
liefs and practices must be aban'
doned in view of the hue and cry
raised over the election to the
United States house of representa-
tives from Utah of Mr. Roberts,
who is charged with being . poly,
gamist. Great pressure is being
brought upon congress to debar
Mr.. Roberts from his seat in that
body, and Representative Clark,
of Iowa, has introduced bill, IN.
tended to cover Mr.. Roberts, case,
which prohibits bigamists and
polygamists from serving in con
gress.
In Massachusetts the movement
has taken the form Of an anti-poly-
gamist league, which is rapidly alb
sorting into its membership the
religious zealots and crank reform
ers, among the bean.eaters.
Col. Thomas w. Higginson in g
letter declining to become a mem
Der of the new league, very plain
ly intimates that the opposition to
MIR. Roberts is based on persecu'
tion. /, is also alleged he says
that Mr.. Roberts has defied the law
by making plural marriage since
the admission of Utah as a state
and if he possessed more wives thar
one at that time, it is his duty tc
continue to support them, and tha'
he has done more than this has no
been proven. II cannot but sus
peci," says Mr.. Higginson, "tha
many of your signers might b'
equally ready to exclude from th,
United States senate Jew, ;
Roman Catholic or an atheist, i
they had the power. The spirit o
persecution dies hard. Apart from
polygamy, we have no more righ
to "givo Mormonlsm a setback, ;" a
you say, than to give setback t.
any other body of believers or dis
believers"
1t is not likely that Mr.. Robert
will be excluded from a seat in tn
house, as he has not been convict
ed of polygamy or other crime
The house of representatives is no
a grand jury and is not crimina
court. 1t cannot try its member
for a violation of law, but if the,
have been convicted by regula
judicial proceedings, it can tax
cognlzance Of the fact and act az
cordIngly. The house can try
man only for violation ofits ow
rules. The course to pursue b
those who are opposing the adml'
sion of Mr.. Roberts is, therefor,
to proceed against HIM in th
courts of Utah for violating tn
| Edmunds act.
If the house we're to vote to e1
clude Mr.. Roberts, it would e;
tablish a precedent that nigh
cause any amount of trouble here
after. The record of many mem
| bers of congress are not so in
maculate that they would bear ir
vestigation. 1t has been rolnte
out that Senator Quay is unde
