Thomas Ksarns has been elected
United States senator from Utah by
our Republican legislature To say that
he is the worst choice that could be
made from the leading candidates is
putting 1t mildly. To say that he can
distinguish himself for any ability in
Washington or do the slightest honor
10 Utah would be an absurdity His
sole recommendation was his money,
and Utah is now easily in the ranks of
purchasable states. His election is I'M
dOubtedly due largely to a church deal
and thus some Of his opponents are
hoist by their own petaTd.' Personally
Tom Kearns is a good fellow and that
says IL all. He viii do the best he can,
and if lavish expenditure Of money will
distinguish the state, we viii see her

A United States senator has been

sion, and the man selected is the Hon.

sole ourselves to know that that man
was strictly out Of the race from the
beginning. Eith.r of the others would
no doubt have served the state with
credit in the senate of the United

made, we are willing to abide by the
decision. We do not believe in uphold

upon any church or candidate as it

II would be proper for the Republican
