THE FRANCHISE is SIGNED.

Mayor Thompson has signed the
franchise granted by the City Council
10 the Oregon Short Line company for
the occupation of certain portions OF
the city by the grand Union depot
that is to be erected, and by the
lines, tracks, switches, etc. necessary
to, the completion OF the extensive
plans Of the company for per-
manent improvements.
The terms Of the franchise win have
TO be accepted By the company within
sixty days, and one OF them is that
the works shah be completed within
five years, The viaduct on North TEN.
pie and the footway on South Tenn
pile streets, which have been frequent
ly mentioned, are, of course, among
the requirements Of the franchise, We
have no doubt that there swill be a
prompt acceptance by the Short Line
people, and We may look for the be-
ginning of the work TO accomplish the
objects in VIEW In very brief per-
iod. We are glad that the Mayor has
seen fit to coincide with the Couuci
and the public In this movement and
we congratulate all parties concerned
on this desirable contamination.

Mormon babies upon their knees and

~ has proclaimed that the Momons
were an extremely and intelligent and
PATRIOTS class OF voters who saw that
which was good and voted for II. With
all these facts before us, this effort to
reopon the old Mormon fight must be
based on the idea that the people OF
Idaho are chronic fools and can be
fooled an the time
After picturing the condition OF NOR.
ais prevailing IN Boise city which we do
not think is germane to this subject,
the Caldwell Tribune closes It's sharp
editorial with this pertinent paragraph.
we don't know what the people Of
Idaho think about this recent outbreak
against the Mormons, but TO us II looks
very much like an exhibition OF small
politics. II is an attempt TO embrol
the whole state TO promote the interests
and crafty the spltes of few indlvid-
uals."
The remarks we have quoted have a
very striking local application. The
persons and papers here that are seek
ing to drag in the hackneyed phrase
Church Influence and apply It to suit
their own designs, would be the very
hrst to cndeayor to obtain It, IL they
thought there was any chance to work
1t for themselves and their candidates.
II may be necessary II the cry is kept
up, to publish few details which
would make interesting reading, but
would not be very pleasing for few
politicians Of opposite parties.
Why not announce principles and
policies put up candidates who are
pledged to support them, appeal TO the
voters to elect them on tenable grounds,
and drop yillifoaton, false issues and
the stupid and baseless bugaboo OF
church influence and pursue the con-
test deccntly and squarely?

WHAT'S THE MATTER WITH 1T?

The Logan Journal is getting grumpy.
for some cause or other We noticed
its complaint recently because the
Salt Lake press had not noticed SUN.
GENTLY according to It's notion, the
splendid reception OF the visitors to
the Agricultural college, at the close
Of the Irrigation Congress. Now It is
uttering a grievance about the Brig.
ham Young college in this way;
THE Deseret News lntlmates that
the Brigham Young College Is but a
faint echo OF the real thing established
by the same great founder at Provo
which Is hereafter to be known ns the
Brigham Young University The Provo
institution has more students, IL is
true; but when the claim is made that
II Ia larger or better in any other re-
speot, our attitude is that of the gentle-
man from Missouri
The Deseret News has not intmated
anything of the kind. This paper has
always supported the college at Logan,
founded by the late President Brigham
Young and no such words as faint
echo of anything were used by the
Deseret News in relation to it. In ex-
planning the reasons for changing the
name Of the b. Y, Academy at Provo
to the Brigham Young University, we
showed that It was doing higher work
than that OF an academy, We remarked
that It was the parent institution Of
others. and said: "The title OF college
Is borne by the more juvenile but ex-
cellent institution at Logan. That IL
called the Brigham Young College
We therefore endorsed the resolution TO
call the former the Brigham Young
University.
We do not believe that anyone con.
nected with the college Is imbued with
the notion advanced by the Journal,
and simply wonder what Is the matter
with our supersensitiye northern
neighbor.

Portland Oregonlan.

The Posts suggestion Is that the Of
flee be made attractive by endowing II
with the properties of a Cabinet posi-
tion so far as counsel is concerned, II
not departmental duties The main use
Of a Cabinet officer, after all is ad-
visory. Trained assistants do the bulk
OF the department routine; but what
the President needs Is a body of sage
counselors. II makes little difference
whether man like Root is Secretary
Of state or Secretary OF War, for the
President leans upon him in foreign as
much as In military affairs, and also
in finance. The Cabinet councils cover
every branch of the Administration
policy 1t Is fitting that into this body
Of the nations executives the Vice
President should be admitted. His
chances OF the succession, however re-
mote and ignored, afford sufficient
basis for his recognition as a factor in
the government, and for his induction
into the counsels and considerations
upon which policies are framed.

THAT sENsELEss CRY.

The Caldwell, Idaho, Tribune recently
had very pungeHt editorial on the re-
cent uproar in that State over the at
tempted revival Of the anti. Mormon"
agitation, consequent on the election
of Mr.. Hepburn and the appointment OF
II. Smith Woolley as assayer at Boise
city, It touches up the sectaran
churches for their jealousy Of the Nor
mons and their consequent attacks on
the latter for entering into politics ana
argues that,
IF II be correct principle for the
other churches TO combine against the
Mormons, and seek through political
channels to work the purposes OF the
combination, We are unable To- see
wherein the same thing done by the
Mormons is wrong
Leaving the religious phase of the
question, that paper thus presents the
political aspect of the case:
For ten years or more members of
the Mormon church have mingled i'm
politics unfortunately with Aletho-
dlsts, Catholics, Presbyterlans, BAN
fists. Free Thinkers, Atheists and Inf
dels. All political parties have labored
asslduously to secure the active sup
port OF the Mormon people. From every
stump IN southeastern Idaho, Demo-
Gratis Republicans, Populists and So
clalists have We'd with each other I'm
trying to make the Mormons believe
mat their political party was the pecu-
var political friend of tho Mormon pee

the Turk still rules. Jealousy between
the different states prevents them from
cooperation, and as long as they are
hshtlng one another, they are easily
held in subsection by tyranny, The
great powers, too, are jealous Of one
another, and neither can. therefore, act,
even II there were a desire to end the
fearful condition. And thps peace is
bought at the cost OF human sacrifices.
That is too dear price TO pay. That
IS peace with a curse attached. Civil.
cation cannot afford TO have peace un.
der such conditions

THE yICE.pREsIDENCY
ChicaRo Evnninr Post

The time has come to make q radical
change In the position occupied by the
President of the United States.
The constitution simply provides that
the Vice-presldont shall preside over
the Senate and succeed to the Presiden-
cy In certain contingencies There II
stops, AS our system has developed,
the Nice-Prcsldent has nothing to do
with the administration; he is not a
force or factor In the government. The
law deprlves him OF voice or vote with
a single exception on the floor of the
Senate; custom and practice shut him
out from participation in the work of
the executive department, He may be
ornamental, he Is not useful, even, as
silent partner in the government
Is this reasonable, sound, safe plan?

FOR LACK OF TRAINING.

Mrs. Russell Sage speaks the truth,
when she says that the prevalence Of
smoking In public places is. very large
ly, due 10 the Indifference Of the women
TO the bad habits Of the men. II the
women did Insist on refinement in the
men that seek their company, they
would have It. But as long as they
consent to breathe the air that has
been contaminated by tobacco smoke,
they VIII be welcome to It. 1t is the
same with contaminated moral atmos-
phere. They viii be treated to swear
Ing and otherwise bad language, as
long as they do not insist upon gem
tlemanly conduct in those with whom
they associate. Woman's RESPONSE
bility Is great because her power Is
great as long as she exercises the dis
tlnctlve qualities that are hers, given
for the elevation of the race to the
highest moral level, TO many men It
does not occur that they are dlscourte-
Gus and ungentlemanly when they
annoy their felownen with their bad
habits, II these were pointed out to
them by mothers, sisters. wives, or
sweethearts they would probably do
better and thus gain the benefit OF
