From its inception this country
has been governed by the lawyers,
who have inculcated in the minds
of the people a superstitous rever-
ence for courts, and for the Supreme
Court in particular. We are ex-
pected to regard the justices of that
tribunal as superior to mere men
and to look upon the court itself as
something akin TO the divine judg-
ment seat. But the justices them
selves make it difficult for the
people to maintain this attitude of
unceasing reverence. 1t is mat
ter of common knowledge that
some Of them attained their present
eminence through the skillful pur-
suit of partisan politics. Others,
like Justice Shiras in the income
tax case, and Justice Brown in the
insular case, have been agile
enough to get on both sides of
single proposition. Some, like
Justice White, can be relied upon
to adapt the law and constitution
to the interests of their particular
section. And finally the court as
a whole has SO frequently reversed
its own decisions that it is too much
to ask of the people that they ac-
cept its wisdom as infallible or its
personnel above criticism.

Wonderful, indeed, are the many
changes that are being wrought
by man in this fair land of ours.
And among them there is none
more worthy of attention than the
passing of the "Great American
Desert of our childhood days,
which will soon be only memory.
All this is only slight foretaste
of what is to come in the next few
years. That favorable quotation of
our friend, the country preacher,
"The desert shall blossom as the
rose," is destined to be exemplified
to remarkable degree. Not only
shall the desert blossom as the
rose, but also as the less beautiful
potato and caulihower and sugar
beet and watermelon and fruit tree
and many other things which pro-
fit mans stomach and swell his
bank account.

A Cure for Cholera Infantum.

"Last May" says Mrs. Curtis
Baker, of Bookwalter, Ohio, ian
infant child of our neighbor's was
suffering from cholera infartum.
The doctor had given up all hopes
of recovery. l took bottle of
Chamberlain Collie, Cholera and
Diarrhoea Remedy to the house,
telling them l felt sure it would do
good if used according to directions,
In two days time the child had
fully recovered, and is now (nearly
a year since) a vigorous, healthy
girl. | have recommended this
Remedy frequently and have never
known it to fail in any single in
stance" For sale by all druggists

Excursion to Salt Lake City.

The second annual reunion of
the army of the Philippines will be
held in Salt Lake City on August
18th, 1901. The Denver & Rio
Grande and the Rio Grande West
ern railroads have arranged a
specially reduced rate of one fare
for the round trip to be in effect on
August l1th. and 18th, from Colo
RADIO points, which is but SIS.
Points south of the main line will
use the SIS rate by adding one fare
for the round trip to junction
point. These tickets have a tran
sit limit of ten days in each direc-
ton, and a final limit for the re-
turn of thirty days from date of

Public opinion Of the Citizen is
such that it is high time that its
editress, whose career has been
stretched out of all proportion look
ing under the bed for the proverb-
ial man, should forswear her mas
culine role and try to be womanly.
~Soapy's" malady has become SO
virulent through repeated rebuttal
from every side that the poor,
green thing is really to be pitied
for being SO far "off her trolley"
Her penchant is for politics, but
no fame awaits her there, because
it has often been demonstrated
that she cuts less figure in politics
than does deuce in a discarded
deck of cards. She is a hoodoo'
R1oor thing

American politics at present will
compare well with the politics of
ancient Rome at the lowest ebb of
her corruption. A modern Her
cules is needed to clean out the
Augean stables. Every caucus,
every convention, every city con-
Gil, every Legislature, is permeated
by the rotten political methods
which hold sway at the polls, where
freemen are supposed to exercise
a sovereign right in support of
their liberty. BY the corrupt
methods practiced these very bal
lots are transformed into engines
of oppression, and under pretence
of law the life is crushed out of the
men who cast their ballots for hon
est government.

There are reasons for believing
that the Morgan steel trust will
succeed in its contest with the
labor union. The public has not
been disposed to give sympathy
to the extent and with the enthus-
iasm that is a prominent factor in
making strikes successful. There
is an idea prevalent that as the
men We're receiving good wages
they should have let well enough
alone. When there is only prin-
ciple at stake, it is hard in times of
prosperity to create an interest.
In many respects, the action taken
by the leaders of the Amalgamated
Association was the most moment
Gus ever taken by labor, not in
immediate effect but in its bearing
ON labor and capital in the future.

Colorado's fruit crop promises to
be exceptionally large this year,
Notwithstanding the prevalent ex-
tremely hot weather. Colorado
orchards have thrived because they
are irrigated. The fact that there
>will be a large crop is encouraging.
ii means that the horticultural
localities will receive big returns
for their fruit crops, and that pros
perity will prevail in those sections
this season. AS the orchard area
is gradually increased the value OF
each succeeding crop will be en-
larged, and it will accordingly
make business good and the people
prosperous every year. As the
supply increases new markets can
be found.
