or that if elected he would give it his

for The Herald TO enter upon a defense
or John s. Critchlow, Democratic nom
fnee for the Office Of city recorder.
Mr. Critchlow is one Of Salt Lakes
most prominent and most enterprising
young business men. Every citizen
who knows him and his absolutely clean
record likes him. His honor stands un-
impeaehed and unimpeachable, and his
character is above reproach.
II is contemplate politics for the ma
chine organ to say that Mr.. Critchlow
does not want the Office for which he
has been nominated and that If he is
elected-and he win be eIected-he will
not give II his personal attention Mr.
Critchlow did not want the nomina-
lion; he said so frankly and freely. But
there was a unanimous call for him
and ne agreed to accept.
Having accepted, ne has entered with
sll his heart into the campaign. We

TEsTINe ~ ~.

/ THE STATE OF KANSAS has a law
4 which prohibits the discharge Of an
employe because he is a member Of the
national guard. The law is being tested.
/ IN measure by a case originating IT.
Emporia. The agent Of the Santa Fe
railroad at Emporia discharged a man
/ because. in spite of the protests Of his
| superior, he left his work to 90 with his
/ company to the recent military maneu-
vers at Fort Riley. 3 formal warrant
/ OF arrest has been issued against the
/ agent, and the case viii be prosecuted
/ for the purpose of determining whether
/ or not the law is constitutional.
! Now, as a matter of fact. this em-
ploye was not discharged because he
was a member of the guard He was
/ discharged because he insisted on Ieav-
/ ing his work without first providing for
o substitute. 1t is true the guardsman
/ was ordered by his commanding officer
to so with his company; he had taken
an oath when he joined the militia TO
obey his superior officers. If he had
refused to go he might have been tried
FOR characterization. He did not
i
sitiou. However you look at IT the
gUardsman is between the upper and
/ the neither millstOnes.
BY the same token the entire national
guard Of Kansas is between the upper
and the neither milestone. If the law is
found to be constitutional the effect will
I be practically a declaration that en-
I ployers must stand ready at all times
to be deprived, temporarily at least, Of
the services Of their employees who are
members Of the guard. Viewing the
question from the purely ethical stand
point. we might argue that no good
citizen viii discharge an employe who
goes. as a member Of the guard, to an
|encampment or on other duty connected
with the militia.
But the employer has a right 70 be
heard on the subject A large proper
ton Of the guardsmen are allotted each
year a vacation on pay. Such men
should i'm every case so arrange their
affairs as to take their vacations during
the time for which the encampment is
/ fixed, thus causing as little incOnven-
fence as possible. It is easy to see that
/ a rebeIious employee could make a great
deal Of trouble for his employer under
/ the Kansas statute If the courts de-
clare it to be constitutional.
Ard. in the end, the sustaining of the
law would work hardship on the Kan
sas guard. Employers can easily find
sufficient justification for dizcharg,ng
men aside from the fact that they are
guardsmen. In Kansas, if the statute
is upheld, it won't be many months be-
/ fore most of the members Of the militia
who work on salaries VIII lose their
places and it viii be hard for them to
find new places as Ions. a.. they. remain
in the militia.

a CITIZENS DUTY.

I UST ONE DAY fntervenes between
} now and the date when the voters
OF Salt Lake City viii choose the OFF,
GERS who are TO conduct the affairs Of
the municipality during the next two
years. The attention of every citizen
10 whom these presents may come is
again respectfully directed to his indi-
vidual responsibility. No voter who
stays away from the polls viii have
the slightest ground for objection if
the election results i'm the fastening Of
machine rule on this city.
In this connection we wish 20 offer
some suggestions, slightly paraphrased
from campaign for good government
conducted in a Pennsylvania city. In
that campaign a Republican machine
was attempting to secure control. The
machine had nominated a ticket COM
posed Of fairly good men and the fight
was not waged against them as indi-
viduals but because they stood as the
acknowledged representatives of the
machine The parallel between that
battle and the Salt Lake campaign Is
30 exact that the rallying cries there
are appropriate here. Some Of them.
and we hope every voter will bear in
mind, We're:
zone vote counts for more on cleo
ton day than a whole year Of talk"
"A stay-at-home independent is a
machine helper"
"A voting independent counts more
than 100 talking ones who keep
away from the polls.v
IAN Independent who does not vote
is as much use as hairpins to a bald
headed man"
THE time to kick against corrupt
government is on election day.
THE only way to know an indie
pendent is by his vote"
"The barking dog does not bite:
neither does the stay-at-home indie
pendent
Every independent who does not
vote is half a machine man"
The Herald believes-the independent
voters Of Salt Lake City will do their
duty at the polls next Tuesday. hide
pendent voters have saved other cities
from machine domination, with all the
extravaganza. all the law defiance and
mismanagement that machine rule has
invariably meant. and they viii save
salt Lake. But the Independents can
not accomplish this great work of re-
form without the aid of the Democrats.
Every Democrat must vote next Tues
day, must see that his Democratic
friends and neighbOrs vote, and the
result win be all that the most earnest
believer in good government could de-
sire.

PARKS GETS DESERTS.

TT TOOK A JURY just twelve minutes
to find Walking Delegate sam Parks
guilty Of eXtOruOn on a second count.
Parks was already under a sentence OF
not less than two and one-half nor
more than three and one-half years in
Sing Sing on the first charge Of extor-
ton and blacizmail. Now that he has
again been found guilty It is to be
hoped that his union. which has gone
% far OUT Of its way 70 befrlend him.
viii throw him overheard
II any. question Of vital Importance to
the cause Of labor were involved in the
Parks case fl would be easy to under
stand why the union to which Parks be-
longs should stand by him. Nothing Of
the kind is at stake, however. Parks
has been found guilty twice OF using
the union for his own enrichment. For
dirty money he has betrayed his cause.
Instead OF aiding him in his struggle to
evade the penalties prescribed by law
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1903-11-01

in such cases, Parks union should have
been arrayed on the side of the prose-
cution.
Now let us hope the guilty wretch
viii be permitted 70 sink into the prison
oblivion he 50 richly deserves. His case
has been a stencil in the public nosrfls
ever since his first al The bitterest
enemies Of union labor could not wish
FOR it more disgraceful notoriety than
it has attained through the action Of
Parks and his I'll advised union friends.
At Kansas City this convicted felon was
honored by the international Associa-
ton Of Iron Workers above all his fell
lows. From the beginning a majority
Of the delegates stood with and for
him and his methods.
AT last though, there are indications
that Parks union win let him go. No
further efforts are being made by its
members to defend him. and a dispatch
from New York indicates that the So
called enemies Of Parks are in the ma
jority. The Herald hopes this is true
and that we have heard the last of
Parks and his methods. We hope. too.
that all walking delegates who have
been inclined to exceed their authority,
to call strikes for personal profit or to
crafty private animosities, win learn
a lesson from the downfall OF Parks.
Crime may be successful for a time.
but in the end retributiOn is sure. And
crimes against union labor by union
labor men almost always bring a great
deal more harm upon the unions than
to the criminals themselves.

Probably no line of Furniture has
sprung into favor as quickly as Sec
tional Bookcases, and yet it is easily
explained, as the expansion system is
almost q necessity to house the accu-
mUlating books. As this condition arises
an additional section is purchased at
slight cost, and the bookcase grows
with your library and meets your re-
quirements.
Supposing the case that in the near
future you may wish to purchase a
bookcase, we have little doubt you will
decide on the sectional system. There
are several mokes on the market and
all about the same price, therefore,
MERIT is the main consideration.

TURES, such as iron bands on the sides
and shelves projecting between the
doors has been overcome in the Gum"
