THE WORK.

I'd HE REPUBLICANS are making special efforts,
after the mayoralty, to secure the offices of audi
tor and treasurer; for with these two Offices IN the
hands of PLANT members of their party they could
manipulate the funds of the city, and give such fig
ures as might hoodwin the people into the belief that
they were al right.
When it Is remembered that the auditor is re-
qUired check all bills presented against the city and
to make such reports as viii show just how the money
has been SPENT and that in the hands of the treasurer
rests the collection of large part of the ctys reve-
Rues it win be seen how important those offices and
how absolutely necessary Is to have honest, capable
and efficient men to ill them
An important part of the treasurers duties is the
collection of licenses under the city ordinances from
which source the city derives revenue of from S125-
600 to $150O0O per year. The statement published in
this issue of such collections for the three years and
ten months that Mr.. Morris has been in the Office,
compared with a like period Immediately preceding his
ncumbency shows what be done there by strict at
ention business and careful and honest admnstra-
ton.
It viii be noted that during the last three years and
ten months Mr. Morris has collected $S4, 759 % more
than his predecessors collected during a like period
that is to say $22 lilo yearly has been added the
revenues of the city from this source alone.
Some part of this is due to the increase of bust
ness, but that part Is comparatively SMALL as will be
seen from a comparison Of the merchants licenses,
which should be fair test of the business increase
While the increase from that source Is only $914505,
IN the four years land that IS not all due TO increase
Of business be readily shown the increase from
other sources has been $756141S. Further, a large
portion of this license money comes from the liquor
Dealers and there Is very little, if any, increase IN the
number of such dealers during the period covered by
the staement while the license fees for all kinds
of business have prevailed during the whole period.

THE PROBABLE RESULT.

but 1t will be Democratic; of this there can be
doubt No person who Is at all well informed
believes otherwise Yet the result VIII be determined
largely by the of the reformers who declare they

cation which they ordinarily support If these accept
Mayor Thompsons failure to endorse the Republican
platform as an indication of his intention to abide by
1t and live up to It; if they accept the silence Of his
party leaders, of his pebnders and of his party paper
as an evidence of his sincerity on the gambling and
Sunday closing question, and vote for him. he may be
elected for he assured from the beginning of the
Dig downtown vote.

OGDEN AND PARK CITY.

HE PEOPLE OF PARK CITY and Ogden should
make mistake Tuesday. They should fol-
low the good example that viii be set by Salt
Lake City and elect their entire Democratic tickets.
In Ogden the Democratic candidate for mayor is
an able aggressive young business man, who viii give
the city admirable administration. There is little
reason to doubt that he viii be elected for it is not con-
ceivabe that the people viii make mistake when they
to the polls and choose the bufoon who believes he
is also candidate
In Park City there IS Only one serious charge that
can be brought against Mayor Smith and the present
Democratic administration. 1t Is that they have cut
the tax rate squaTey in two, and still have made more
permanent improvements than any two previous adj
minstrations. For this offense Mayor Smiths admin
stration has been branded by the Republican conven-
ton extravagant, but the voters who observe the
betterments that have been made and feel in their
pockets the money that a Republican administration
would have extracted from them don't see it that ay
and they won't vote that way. They will vote for
Smith, more Improvements and low taxation.

RAPHAEL's MAsTERPIEcE.
J. P. Morgan Said to Have Bought
the Colonna Madonna.
New York WORLDLY


Reports from Paris from q trustworthy
source declare that J. Pierpont Morgan
has purchased from Mr.. Sedelmeyer, the
dealer, the famous painting by Raphael,
known as the COiOnna Madonna. 1t Is
not stated what price Mr.. Morgan paid
for this great work of art, but 1t is as
serted that a payment OF 10000 was mace
for purchases which included besides 10,
a EuDens and several examples OF DOtn
the English and Dutch schools.
All critics agree that this painting is
one of RaphaeIs finest achievements, in
its composition, its cOloring and its rev
erential feeling. It was painted in l5,5
Tor the convent of the nuns Of ST..
Anthony of Padua. In 1911 the nuns We're
overwhelmed by debts and sought per
mission to sell the painting. This wa
granted and the COlOnna family becam'
the new owners.
In 1902 it was sold to Ferdinand /.
king of Sicily. His heir, Ferdinand IL.
king Of Naples. was its next owner,
and he cherished it SO highly that ne
hung It in his bedchamber in the royal
palace. When the revolution Of 1851
broke out Ferdinand was forced 10 flee
He took the painting with him and IL was
finally secreted in Madrid. In 1870 an et-
fort was made to sell It to the Louvre.
The price was agreed upOn-S20, oO0-but
the breaking out Of the FrancO-Germau
war put an end to the scheme Then It
was loaned to the South kensingtOn NIL
scum, where il remained for nearly TWEEN
ty-ftve years. A few years ago the heirs
of Ferdinand decided to sell 1t, and found
a purchaser in Mr.. Sedelmeyer.
The painting is an altar screen. It rep
resents the holy family. The infant Je-
sus is on the knees Of the Virgin. ST..
John the Baptist kneels in front Of the
central figure. Grouped around her are
| St. Paul, St. Peter, St. Catherine and St
Cecilia. In the tympanum the Lord is
represented with angels
If Mr.. Morgan has become the owner
of this great work Of art the question
of the import duty win become q burn

A sTUDYIN BRAINS.

N|HILE IN PARIS, making study of criminology
Wv and degeneracy, Professor Caesar Lombroso at
tended a reception and delivered himself of
lecture. During the course of his vemarks he en-
ightened his audience with some discoveries he had
made regarding the character of several exalted per-
sonages.
He assured his hearers that after an examination
of plaster of paris of the head of the ear of
Russia he felt safe in saying that the monarch ques
ton was "an innocent, melancholy idiot" He would
be the easiest sort of tool in the hands of skful fat
terers.
King Edward of merry England the professor de-
clared, had head that proved him to be crazy the
subject of his greatness The emperor of Germany
he found to be irresponsible because he "bOrn
irretrievable criminal" Joseph Chamberlain, Cecil
Rhodes and Rudyard Kipling were all put down as
mentally msond
The remarks, taken in connection with the declara-
ton of the doctors who examined the brain of Czogosz
that 1t Of extra good quality would in
dictate that rstclass brain Is not thing to be wished
for. Messrs. Rhodes, Chamberlain and Kipling have
succeeded pretty well in the world They haven't suf-
fered greatly by reason of their unsound mentality
Czolgosz with his hgh-cass brain, managed to sink
himself to the lowest and most oathsome place human
being could reach.
IF to place faith in the analysis of the
scientist, any old brain is better than good one.

it altogether probable he would vote the Democratic
ticket, for he believes in the merit system, and has
already refused to appoint incompetent Republicans to

The duty of the voters is to select city EMPLOYEES

they would perform it. The attempted introduction of
national issues Is evidently dodge that it will fool

For the Sake of Truth.

Arthur Ketchum has poem, which he
entities ''AbsOlutiOn." The verses run as
follows:
When all the steady stars are lit,
And the light sleeps from WEAKNESS,
Night stands with plying hands out
spread
To give her pardon and to bless
Earth creeps so near to heaven then
That scarcely can one, watching, mark
Where they are twain-sO patent is
The benediction of the dark.
All this may be poetry, and the figures
are very pretty. The picture, however.
is only half finished, like those panel
paintings which only give a portion of
a landscape. How would it look COM
pleted like this?
TDen ere the priestly hands oUtstretched
In benedictiOn are withdrawn,
The children of the night come forth,
And revel till the hours of dawn;
And murder, rapine, sin and lust,
Hold meath the shades their sable
reign;
Till ere another day is born
They absOlutiOn need again.
