The DAYS WORK,

Do the work Of the day as well
AS you have the wit to do;
Try for the best-for the best will tell
What was the end in view.
Always your best-it is cheap to shirkI
The best makes the worker glad;
And people remember the better work,
Forgetting the weak and bad.
They remember the careful tool
AS well as the perfect song.
Scant is the memory for a fool
Or him who is idle long.
People remember the honest few
Who gave Of the best they had
They will remember the good you do,
And always forget the bad.
Do the work Of the day as well
As though it would close your toll,
He who II sermon in stone would tell
Must chisel and carve and moil.
Weak and lifeless, or firm and true
The work OF the day is set.
People remember the good we do
The bad they will soon forget
Yesterday is record made,
Changeless, for good or IL;
Hands to-day must be unafraid,
Ready to work your will.
Useless tomorrow, to sadly rue
Plans that were far from sure.
People remember the good you do,
And they forget the poor.

Baseball.

The origin of baseball-"our nation

the first club organized to play it was
in New York in 1915. Singularly
enough, this club, like the one first or
ganized to promote rowing, was called
The Knickerbocker Club" After 1851
other amateur baseball clubs began to
organize, including the Atlantic, Mu.
tual, Union, etc. In 1857 convention

around New York and Brooklyn was

baseball associations were started
about 1862 or 1863. Amateur baseball
throughout the Union was at it's height
in the years 1865, 1865 and 1861 Pro.
fessional baseball was recognized i'm
1865, and the first games were played
a 1869.

But he needed not their banter,
And his part in quiet played.
Till they reached the closing inning,
And he took the batters place,
With the score just three against them,
And Cornville on each base.

THE PASSING OF TEDDY"

We used to call him Teddy now
he is Mr.. Roosevelt.
The transformation is not without
cause or reason. 1t is not merely a
dignified form of reference to the head
ofthe nation. 1t is rather a verbal
acknowledgment OF our changed esti-
mate of the man.
Formerly, indeed, down to the time
that the assassin's bullet revealed him
in a new light, Roosevelt Gas viewed
by the American people as a very diff
ferent character than we now know
him. He had won high standing and a
certain degree of popularity, it is true.
But he was looked upon as a child of
accident, fortunate escape from a
worse fate than his record actually de-
served. He was viewed as a rather
able, honest, independent figure, who
had risen largely by the force of cir
cumstances. He was feared for the de-
gree ofpugnaeity he had exhibited. 1t
was reputed that he possessed a vain
disposition, not in keeping with our best
traditions of public men. 1t was fear
ed that a crucial test would reveal him
lacking in depth and substance. His
mental balance. under trying condi-
tons, was doubted, and the freedom
from restraint that he always exhibited
was interpreted to mean serious
lapse of the dignity becoming persons
of high station. His overflow of virile
Americanism was construed into lin
goism, which, were opportunity Afford
ed, might prove serious danger to
the republic. His delight in physical
proves and his zest in outdoor
sports were signs then of british ele-
ment in his nature, unbecoming to
great men. We put up with a great
deal that was new and strange in him.

lie is Teddy no longer. Yet the
change is in us, rather than in him.
We see him now as he always has
been but without the misgivings that
were once ours. The fear has gone
and he stands revealed in his true
light as one OF the grandest and
greatest Americans OF this or any age.
We know he is staunch and true
fearless and upright, a bulwark to the
weak and a menace to oppression. |

ton and ill-concealed satisfaction,

the other hand, the recent career OF
this gifted, but cratic and, as we con-
slider, misguided, man has its lesson to
our people, who are apt to be carried
off their feet by glib talk and fierce in
vective, and who are prone to mistake
talent of this order for sound judy
ment and merit. The man who essays
the role OF reformer must sustain the

Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion OF the ear. There
IS only one way to cure deafness, and that
is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is
caused by an infiamed condition of the
mucous lining of the Eustachian tube.
When this tube gets infiamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely closed deafness is the
result, and unless the Inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to its
normal condition, hearing will be de-
stroyed forever. Nine cases out of ten are
caused by catarrh, which is nothing but an
intiamed condition of the mucous sur
faces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh)

never been equalled in a president
He is a leader; a safe leader because
right leader. He is quaint, strik-
ing and original. but because he Is
different than the ordinary man he has
risen above the multitude. No, not
risen, for he is still the plainest, most
matter-of-tact. everyday, practical
American of all those who claim our
favor. Born an aristocrat, bred in
the lap of luxury, there is not an ele-
ment OF snobbishness in his nature.
He is the living example, the forceful
exponent, of his own favorite theory
of merit. His wide experience in all
walks of lite has been his greatest
teacher, and well has he profited.
Mr.. Roosevelt is not imposing in
appearance-he does not seek to be.
He knows that the shock and rub Of
lite soon wear OFF these outward
assumptions and that he who would
seek to cloak himself in them really
suffers when the mask is torn away.
He is therefore always and every
where the same unassuming man that,
once seen and known. is recog-
nized forever, under all conditions.
One introduction is sufficient.
The president has set a new stan
dard in public men. He has demon
strated that it is not essential TO true
greatness to be stiff-necked, cold
silent and solemn. He has
shown that a man may be natural,
yet not common; may enter into the
.ull enjoyment of life himself, and yet
lot sacrifice his manhood or suffer in |
public esteem. Mr. Roosevelt has
shocked traditions somewhat, but he |

DRovo, May I5.-The announcement OF
the candidacy Of Apostle Reed smoot
for the United States senate has
caused considerable comment 1t has
been expected that he would be a can
didate, but the public announcement Of
the fact has given pronounced interest
to the question, and it is being generally
talked over by all classes of citizens who
take an interest in pubic affairs.
Among Republicans here, where he
lives, Mr. SHOOTS candidacy is favorably
received, the general impression being
that it will strengthen the ticket through
out the state, and especially in Utah
county. This belief. however. is not
shared by some of the Democrats, who
express the opinion that the high eccles-
iastical position of Alr. SIaoot viii prove
a detriment rather than an advantag &c
to the Republican party.
William NJ ROylance, chairman Of the
Democratic state committee, said
There is nothing new in the statement.
IT has been generally understood by
everybody that there was com Dina ton,
or deal, entered into two years ago
whereby Apostle Reed SmOOt was to be
elected senator provided the state went
Republican this year. The story. it is
true, was denied by interested parties at
the time and since, but the tact that
Senator kearns was here and approved

that the deal was made ] don't believe,
however, that the people Of the state

binatiens.
They are now experiencing the results
Of combinations by various trusts not
ably the meat trust, as a result Of which
but few of the people are able to eat
meat. And now to say that the people
are going to turn the state over TO the
Silver King and Grand Central cOmbina-
ton is something / will not believe. Be
sides, / don't believe the announcement
of Apostle SmoOt will hurt the Demo
cratic party in the least. On the con-
traTy, I believe 1t viii help US. Especially
DO I believe this is true with reference
TO Salt Lake, Weber, Summit and Juab
counties, where I believe they are OPP
posed to this kind Of dictatiou. I be
heve the independent Republicans viii
revolt and rally 70 our support to down
such dictation.
Il have the utmost regard and respect
for Apostle Smoot as an apostle. but Of
course, am opposed to him politically. Be

refreshing Of old straw You viii re
member several years ago that Moses
Thatcher, when an apostle, entered the
arena of politics, but was shut out be-
cause il was claimed that he had not
received permission to run, so that the
only conclusion is that Apostle smoot
has sought, and perhaps received, per-
mission Now the question is, are the
people. politically, going to stand for IT.

believe that they will
