THE TRAVELLING MAN.

0Now WHAT WAS HAYNES but
~ a travelling man who went about
with his love upon his lips?" asked
Senator Arthur Brown in his speech
before the jury in the Kaighn case.
Aside and apart from the fact that
the man OF whom he spoke is dead
and has paid with his life for any
misdeeds he may have committed, there
Is in Senator Browns question, either
Intentionally or Internationally. a re-
Election on all travelling men. which
The Herald feels impelled 20 resent.
II his reflection was deliberate and
premeditated, il is entirely untrue and
unwarranted. The great majority OF
the travelling men Of this country is
made up OF as good citizens. as honor
able. honest. straightforward and in
teliigent gentlemen. as can be found
In any business or profession. The law,
Of which Senator Brown is one of Salt
Lakes leading opponents. is high and
lofty calling.
But, as Senator Brown very well
knows. all lawyers are not honest, all
lawyers are not honorable. all lawyers
do not lead clean. pure lives. Does he
consider that fact sufficient warrant for
an attack by innuendo on the entire le-
gal fraternity The Herald believes
Senator Brown cannot successfully as
sail the proposition that travelling men.
as a class, average up very well. in
all that makes for good citizenship,
with lawyers.
Let us consider the situation Of the
travelling man for few moments. Who
Is he? What does he stand for? What
excuse has he 10 offer for his exist
ence? Answering the first question,
The Herald win say that the travel
ing man is necessarily a shrewd man
OF business. He could not hold his
position If he were not. He stands for
the wealth OF the country. corporate
and otherwise. His reason for being
is found in the energy with which he
pushes trade and overcOmes COMPETE
ton.
The travelling man has done more TO
make goods cheaper to the consumer
than any other factor. Realizing that,
20 meet advances made by his COMPETE
Tor. he must make concessions equally
tempting and more. the travelling man
literally forces his house 10 lower
prices or 10 furnish better goods fol
the same money. That he is a TX
ture in the world of business there is
no denying; that he has ability 10 seize
opportunities and TO make them is an
other fact fahliShed
What does the travelling man sac
rifice? IN the first place. he gives W
that which is nearest and dearest 4
the human heart, a home. For many
months in every year the wife who
loves him. the children who lisp hi;
aame with tributes OF affection, know
aim not. He Is in distant country
making small towns. getting I'D al
O'Clock in the morning TO catch ont
train and sitting up until after mid
night 10 catch another. He Is inter.
viewing small merchants. talking Il
buyers. meeting competition. Otter
and often he Is telling a funny story

NOR when his heart is heavy for a.

THOMPSON OF NEBRASKA.

T HE APPOINTMENT Of David E.
l. Thompson OF Nebraska to be rlin-
lister OF the United States TO Brazil is
another indication Of the care with
which President Roosevelt. who CT
course isn't anxious 10 be nominated
to succeed himself in 1904. is laying his
plans 70 secure the presidential nomin-
alton. Thompson is nothing II not a
practical politician He has manipulate
ed. or attempted TO manipulate. poli-
tics in Nebraska for his own selfish
purposes for years.
At several sessions OF the legislature
he has tried TO have himself elected
United States senator. but in each in
stance he has failed. probably because
his people knew him too well. An in-
sight into Thompson's methods may he
gained from the fact that when ne
was superintendent OF the B. & II.
railroad he attempted to bride travelling
men by Offering them free mileage
books IL they would act as spoilers"

DO THEY WANT SMOOTH

no THE VOTERS OF Salt Lake
- county want Apostle Reed smoot
TO represent them in the United States
senate? II they do they viii elect the
Republican legislative ticket NOM
mated by the convention OF that party
on Tuesday last. If they do not want
Apostle Smoot 10 be sent to the senate
they win vote for the nominees of the
Democratic convention, who are as yet
unnamed. but who viii be in every
respect worthy the support Of all eiti-
zens.
There is no possibility OF compro-
mise. no middle ground. The Repub-
lican nominees are every one pledged
absolutely to the support OF Apostle
SmoOt II the Republican legislative
ticket IN Salt Lake county is elected.
IL Is practically certain that the next
legislature win be controlled by the
Republicans. If the Democratic nom
inees win. as they deserve to win and
as they should win, the complexion OF
the new legislature viii be Democratic.
That has been the history OF politics
in Utah In the past and it will be the
case this year.
These are statements which the aver
age voters will accept as facts beyond
dispute As 10 the other, The Herald
VIII rest its case on the honest opinion
OF United States District Attorney Joe
Lippman, who led the Smoot- Kearns
forces In the late convention. or Of
Lindsay r. Rogers. who was the lead
er OF the Sutherland faction. They
know that every one OF the twelve
nominees on their legislative ticket will
vote for Apostle Reed Smoot for United
States senator II elected.
1t is absurd for any man or any
organ to pretend a belief 10 the con-
trary. And through this Is the oppor-
tunity % the Democrats. Their con-
Vention viii meet tomorrow. During
its sessions the fate Of the Democracy
in Salt Lake county will be settled. II
a ticket is named which is not i'm
measurably superior to that put up
by the Republicans. the Democrats
win have no possible chance TO win.
IT, on the other hand. the right mer
are given places on the ticket. and
the right men are willing 10 accept
places on the ticket, the rout of the
Republicans viii be utter and com
plete. This is by no means yellow
dog Republican year. as the party viii
find 20 its cost. The power OF wealth
and other influences is great in Utah
but they can be overthrow If the
voters viii do their duty.
