REGISTER NEXT TUESDAY.

THIS MESSAGE is not intended for
L your neighbor. 1t is intended for
you. That f., II your name is not on
the registration book in your voting
district. Why isn't it there, If you are
entitled to a vote at the election next
week? You probably thought about
registering the first day. But you were
busy and you thought: ''Oh, well. there
are three more registration days. I'll
net around TO it all right
Maybe somebody reminded you of it
the second day. but it was the same
old story with you. You were too
busy. You couldn't even stop on your
way down town or on your way home
TO dinner. The third day you probably
forgot all about il. Now don't let il
happen again. II you do. you'll lose
your vote. This is an off year and
you don't think it is specially imoor-
ant for you 10 vote. Doesn't make much
difference.
Then what right will you have to
complain If Apostle Reed Smoot is sent
to the United States senate? Who do
you suppose will listen TO you when you
go around grooming because such a
man as Jacob Moritz has been elected
to the state senate of Utah? How can
you consistently voice your regret
over Republican maladministration of
county affairs? Seriously do you think
you'll be a good citizen II you fail to
T,aofSfas On sTs,.audaxr
No man or woman, possessing all the
legal qualifications. is a good citizen
who does not vote at every election.
The ballot is a privilege as we'll as a
right and 1t is a privilege OF which all
should gladly avail themselves. The
Democrats of Salt Lake county have
nominated ticket OF exceptional merit
this year. That description applies tc
the county as well as the legislative
divisions OF the ticket.
There isn't a man on either who Is
not entitled, by reason of his superior
qualifications. to the support of every
voter. II gives The Herald pleasure tC
support them and to ask others 20 sup.
port them. The Democratic nominee:
for supreme judge and for representa-
tive in congress are men Of whom the
state may be proud. When compared
with the Republican nominees, it il
readily apparent that they are bette
qualified in every respect for the posi-
tons they seek.
With such an opportunity before tn
voters, no argument should be needle,
10 convince every one of them of tn
necessity of registering and voting
Tuesday is the last day set apart TO
this purpose. Those whose names ar
not now on the books must registe
then or they viii not be permitted t,
vote a week from the day after tomor
row.
Register next Tuesday.

THE TICKET IN WEBER.

0F ALL THE SPLENDID TICKETS
" nominated by the Democratic party
in the various counties OF Utah, none
Is entitled 10 rank higher among IN
dependent, thinking voters that the
Ticket nominated by the Democrats OF
Weber county. In Weber. the second
county of the state. the Democrats
realized the importance of selecting
only the men best fitted for places on
the county and legislative tickets
No other standard of measurement
was used in naming the party's stand
ard bearers. The wisdom of such de-
liberation is manifest at glance.
Every candidate on both tickets is
specially fitted for his individual work.
Every one is a citizen of standing In
the community. a citizen in whom
every voter has confidence A care
full survey of the situation in Weber
indicates that the Democratic ticket
will be elected. as il deserves TO be
elected.
On this ticket all the varied inter-
ests OF the county are represented so
that in this respect, too, the ticket ia
well balanced. The Herald believes the
Democratic nominees will win. for the
party In Weber is alive and
active. And q victory at this time
viii be an encouragement to future
conventions to nominate only the best
men.

Postmaster Arthur L. Thomas of Salt

of Mr.. Wynne's position. At any rate,

in something like half a eennry-Mr
Thomas is taking no part In politics.

A NATIONAL CONVENTION of the

uTAHs MANY SENATORS,

I ocAL REPUBLICAN ORATORS
II have been fond of referring TO
Senator Clark of Wyoming as "Utah's
third senator" and Senator Clark of
Wyoming has accepted the title with
ali the compIaeeney in life. Now, far
be It from The Herald to disparage any
services Senator Clark of Wyoming
may have performed for Utah. though
there is no record anywhere of such.
but we must insist that he is not our
third senator" He stands Number
-Four On the list and no higher.
We speak from the record when we
say that Senator Mark A. Hanna OF
Ohio is Utah's third senator. Every
body remembers when he was ap-
pointed by Senator 7. Kearns to that
high Office. Shortly after Senator
Kearns made this appointment he left
for Europe without so much as men,
tioning to Senator Clark of Wyoming
what he must do for Utah during the
absence OF the second senator. Now
with Kearns in Europe, didn't Hanna
become Utah's second senator and
Kearns Utah's third senator?
How is it possible to put Clark Of
Wyoming higher than fourth unless
Kearns is relegated to fourth position
while abroad and Clark advanced to
third? We hardly think the Kearns ad-
herents would like for their man TO be
fourth. though they might be willing 10
place him third in view of the fact that
Hanna was Immediately ahead of him.
SO let US hear no more from the ora
tors about this third senator" BUSH

We insist that Hanna is entitled to the

REAL SUCCESS.

CONE OF THE ORATORS now hold
~ ing forth in this stats are asking
whether a man may be counted sue
cessful who has not accumulated
wealth. and the question deserves a
serious answer.
In the frst place. the accumulation
Of property is generally proof OF abil-
fly. In some cases it evinees force of
an extraordinary sort. But wealth of
itself does not necessarily indicate the
possession Of either brains or eharae-
ter.
Success Is essentially the develop
ment Of all that Is good and true and
strong In a man. II nature has lin
ted his brain power or his physical
strength; II circumstances have pre-
rented the acquisition OF education; IL
he has been burdened with the care Of
others dependent upon him. he may
act reach great wealth or high posi-
ton. and yet he may be successful.
Success OF the genuine sort is the

In its report of Republican rally at
Sandy. the morning organ of Republi-
canlsm said County Commissioner An
derson showed that the irrigation bill
is a party measure, proposed by Re
publican president, by a Republican
congress through the personal influ-
ence Of President Roosevelt" What
silly ass the fussy little man is. TO be
sure, when he attempts 70 impose on
the intelligence of an audience in this
fashion! Anderson probably doesn't
know but all intelligent Republicans
know that the irrigation bill would not
be on the federal statute books today
If the Democrats in congress had not
rallied TO its support. And yet he has
the unspeakable effrontery TO refer to
it as a party measure. though he
should know that in the house. where
the real fight for the bill occurred, a
Democrat, Shafroth OF Colorado, was
selected by western members, Demo
Gratis and Republicans alike, as the
leader OF the struggle on the western
mems side.
