A SOUND POSITION.

The Ogden Standard. which Is a non.
Mormon" and Republican paper, has,
Il appears provoked some hostility in
consequence Of its attitude on the Rob-
erts question and that Of the present
situation In Utah. II has argued that
the COngressman-elect has a prma
facie right to seat in the House Of
Representatives, and that he possesses
all the legal qualifications necessary
10 that position. Also that Utah has
observed the terms OF the compact
with the nation on the subject Of po-
lygamy. And further, that the only
Just and reasonable method OF dealing
with that question now, is 10 prevent
further plural marriages in the State.

This has provoked some slurrlng

its Mormon" advertising patronage.

A BAD APPOINTMENT.

The Boston Herald tells a story
which proves that Uncle Sam Is not
half as particular about the moral
standing Of his representatives. as
some preachers, male and female, would
have him believe he is.
one w. Godfrey Hunter Of Kentucky
the Herald says, represents this coun-
try in Guatemala. The wife OF the
British representative there gave a re-
ception, TO which the United States
minister was not invited This was
peculiar, In view Of the friendly feel
ings between The Anglo-Saxon countries,
and the matter was looked into with
the result that it was found that the
reputed character OF the gentleman
was such that the British minister's
wife refused to entertain him among
the rest OF the guests.
II was further found that United
States residents OF the Central Ameri-
can State had almost In a body petit
toned the government for Mr.. Hunters
removal.
The paper from which the above IA
learned also charges him with political
treachery, but notwithstanding all. he
was deemed NJ to represent this coun-
try al foreign capital Where were
the Pharisees and the Zealots when
Hunter was appointed?

SOCIALIST MAYORS.

Haverhin and Brockton are two small
cities OF Massachusetts attracting con-
siderable interest because they both
have Socialist mayors The world Is
anxious to know how their principles
operate when applied to practical af-
fairs
The mayor Of Hayerhill was re-elect-
ed, and now he recommends as part Of
his municipal policy free clothing for
poor school children and free reading
room in connection with the public IL
brary Another recommendation Is a
new city charter which shall provide
for the initiative and the referendum,
and the right of the people TO recall
their officials. II this is carried through,
the city win be watched with curiosity
to see what effect that Swiss procedure
will have upon American political llfe
The mayor Of Brockton In his inaug-
ural message recommends the public
ownership Of utilities and declares that
there should be no franchise granted
TO any corporation whatever until the
peoples interests have been carefully
safeguarded, and a proper return made
for the valuable privileges extended,
aud under no circumstances should a
franchise be granted to a street rail-
way corporation until proper assur-
ances have been given that its cars will
be run to suit the comfort and convent
ence Of the people"
1t will be found generally that when
Socialists are elected to office, they
speedily see the necessity Of progress
Ing slowly along the lines Of reform
they desire. Revolutionary measures
would be destructive. In their con-
servatism they find strength Both
these mayors In their Recommended
tions, keep within conservative limits,
but they are laying the foundations
for future development in Socialistic
direction, and on that account their
election to Office Is an event Of no small
importance.

WHERE BLOOD FLOWS,

The record Of murders committed in
the United States during the past year
places the number at 6,225. This is a
terrible record, II means that one In
every 1900 inhabitants Of this country
has a chance OF being murdered. 1t
means that In one year more people
were slain in the United States than
were killed In battle during the war
with Spain and the Philippine rebellion,
for two years, 1t makes II appear that
the army camp is a comparatively SAT-
er place than the ordinary haunts Of
citizens at home during times Of peace
and prosperity.
In view Of the steadily increasing
tide Of crime, the question Of its source
should be all-important II there ever
were a relic OF barbarism," murder is
one. Why does not the cry for VEN
geance that must ascend from the
blood-sprlnkled soil Of this country to.
ward high heaven, command more at
tention among the people? We are
shuddering at the bloodshed in the Phil

It is sometimes urged that to the pure

These are among the fundamental

Until better proof is presented than
