VOTE AGAINST ALL.

A GREAT MANY of the Republicans
a who are opposed to machine die
tation feel that when they vote against
the Smoot-Kearns legislative ticket
they viii have done their full duty as
citizens This is by no means true.
. The machine dictated not only the leg
islative nominees but the entire county
ticket as Well 1t cannot be properly
rebuked unless that ticket is also over
whelmingly defeated
1t has been said that Senator Kearns
and Apostle Smoot cared nothing what
ever Tor che county nominees, that
they conferred their undivided efforts
on the legislative ticket. This is not
the case. We cite Farley P. Christen-
rem as an example. If Mr.. Christen-
sen can be persuaded to testify, he will
tell you that the Kearns-smoot ma
chine defeated him for the nomination
for county attorney.
Indeed, it is not necessary for Mr..
Christensen to testify. The record
speaks for itself. Christensen had in
CURED the enmity of the machine
crowd by his appointment of Congress
man Sutherland's private secretary as
secretary of the Republican state COM
mittee. His doom was sealed from
that moment In a convention DOM
mated by the machine Christensen
went down to defeat before a man
hardly known at all outside of a linn
tied circle of acquaintance. Wester-
welt didn't win because he was pop
ular. He won simply because the ma
chine had determined to make Chris
Jensen feel the weight of its displeas-
ure.
Henry Harker was a candidate to
succeed himself as county commission
er. Unfortunately for Harker, he had
not identified himself with the SmoOt-
Kearns faction and so he was bowled
over. Jesse Fox. county surveyor, was
another who had dared to be slightly
independent. In the words of a ma
chine man, Jesse got his needin's.''
Wilson, Standish and Anderson are the
machine candidates for the commits
sionerships. John James, known from
one end of the county to the other as a
kearns-Smoot man, was rewarded
with the clerkship nomination. And
so it was straight down the line.
Nobody who attended the convention
doubted. as they looked at the pro-
ceedings, that the machine was in con-
troll, except in few minor details of
organization. Subsequent Developments
have proven this to be true, and the
only way for Republicans who believe
that the rank and file of their party is
entitled to a voice in its management
10 rebuke the gang. is for them to vote
the entire Democratic ticket.

ON GETTING SIN LINE"

HIS GET IN LINE argument that
! has been used all over the state for
Candidate Howell is effectively an
swered by paragraph which appeared
in the Salt Lake Tribune Oct. Is. 1897.
Commenting on a paragraph from the
Provo Enquirer, which had been a
stanch Mckinley organ, the Tribune
said:
"The idea that because Utah gave
Bryan $4,000 majority President
Mckinley intends to punish the state
by making vicious appointments to
Office in the state, is a bit of ingenu-
ity in logic that we feel sure few
would think OFF,
Two days later the Tribune said.
again in answer to the Enquirer:
''The Tribune ridicules the idea that
President Mckinley is making him
self and his administration odious in
Utah because Utah voted against
him"
Yet we find the Tribune of 1902 Join
ing in the cry that if Utah goes Demo-
cratic this year President Roosevelt
will be petty enough to retaIiate. The
Herald does not think the Tribune be-
leves anything of the kind. 1t has
used the argument merely for partisan
purposes and with the hope Of deIudfng
the voters of the state.

A REAL IMPERIALIsT.

CENAToR sPooNER of Wisconsin
~ has become an imperialist of the
imperialists. In a recent speech he
said:
IF we could elect a good, strong Re
publican president like Theodore Roose-
welt and strong Republican senate
and house for a term of twenty years.
it would be better for the country. I
believe the demagogic tear-up comes
too often in this country
1t is possible that Senator Spooner's
utterance was prompted as much by
economy as by politics. Elections are
decidedly expensive affairs to the
trusts An expenditure of hundreds of
thousands of dollars is necessary TO
place Republican congress in office
every two years and to elect a Repub-
lican president half as often. II costs
considerable money, sometimes. to elect
United States senator, too. as Mr..
Spooner can doubtless testify.
There is nothing strange in his ex-
pressed thought that elections are held
entirely too often. An additional rea-
son for his thinking so just now lies in
the fact that his term Of office expires
next year and the endorsement given
him by the Wisconsin Republican con-
vention was, TO say the least, qualified.
In effect it said, I'VE endorse you but
we reserve the right to support any
man strong enough to defeat YOU
Another fact worth noting is that
Spooner doesn't want to do away with
elections until after the installation of
his Republican president and congress.
Of course an election would be ex
tremely desirable, in his judgment. if
the Democrats happened to be in con-
troll Of national affairs In such an
event Spooner would be going up and
down the country and then across. and
back again pointing out TO the people
the necessity for battle OF the ballots.
As to denagogy, let us look at
Spooner's record. In 1888, before the
policy of the administration with ref
erence TO the Philippines had been con-
gealed into everlasting imperialism.
Spooner said:
THE jingle of words which we hear
every day about hauling down the
flag does not in the least thrill or i'm
press me. Our flag has been hauled
down before. 1t win be hauled down
again
That was before Spooner found out
that his share of the loaves and fishes
depended upon his attitude as to the
Philippines. Nov the men who talk as
he did in 1898 are demagogues. while
Spooner and his kind are the real. true
and only saviOrs OF the nation

tmakesavery great difference what

GARFIELD'S WAR FRIEND.
The Chaplain OF His Regiment, who
In stiII Living at the Age
of EIghty-Nine.

Rev. j. Harrison Jones, the vener-
able Disciple minister, of Alliance, O.,
recently passed his eighty-ninth birth
day. He has been a preacher for rs
years, and has seen the Disciple
church grow from few small congre-
cations TO a membership of l,5OO, OO0
He was instrumental in the establish
ment of churches at Canton, Wooster,
Mansfield, Bucyrus and other Ohio
towns. Rev. Jones was born in Brook
field, o., June Is, 1913. He lately re-
turned from a visit to the place of his
birth, says the Cincinnati Enquirer.
During the civil war Rev. Jones was
chaplain of the Ohio regiment COM
manded for time by Col. James A.
Garfield. This regiment was recruit
ed in and around Hiram, Hudson and
Bedford
In his younger days Rev. Jones was
a member of an organization called the
Quintinkle club. Other members were
James A. Garfield, Mrs. DR.. Robinson,
of Mentor, and Rev. Isaiah Harrison,
the latter brother of Rev. Harrison
Jones. 1t was agreed that Rev. Har-
rison Jones, if living, should preach
at the funerals of the other members.
Owing to this pledge, he was present
and took part in the funeral services
of the lamented President Garfield.
Rev. Jones is unusually active for
man of his years, and almost every
day walks from his home in the Sixth
ward to the main part OF the town, a
distance OF two miles. Recently he
preached at the Christian church on
the subject, "The Way to Be Happy"
His remarks practically exemplified
the life he has lived, doing good and
carrying sunshine to others. He Is q
fine conversationalist and delights in
telling of the many interesting incl
dents that have made his life remark
able one.
