GROVER ON ANGLING.

GROVER CLEVELAND has written
" "A Word to Fishermen" in an east
eTn magazine. In effect it is a plea for
the limitation of fishing so that no
angler will catch more than a reason
able number Of fish in any one day.
As far as II goes, the ex-president's
contribution is all right but he seems
to have overlooked a great opportunity.
He might have told us, for instance.
whether in fishing for a presidential
nomination to a third term, it is better
Tor the fisher to preserve a COY. IN
certain and hard-to-please attitude. or
TO go at it with a wild, determined
swoop. Is it better to bait your line
with promises to uphold the trusts or
with few vague declarations about
the necessity of great combinations Of
capital in this age Of concentration and
absorption?
After having successfully angled with
shining metallic, but bogus bait that
looked like the real thing, is it reason
able to suppose the same fish can be
caught with that same bait?
In other words. does Grover suppose
mat afteY the great American voter has
been played and landed twice as a
sucker, that this same American voter
is going to be hauled out high and dry
by the old bait and the cid fisherman
An answer to these would be mighty
interesting reading for a good MANY
politicians.

Arc Lightg of History.

William Pitt was born in 1853 and
began to talk and read at an early age.
By nature he was a great con man,
and the graft spread before his eyes
in his native county looked too good
to let alone So long as he had moth
ing but a parliament and the English
people to handle he was a glittering
success, but when he undertook to
manage the affairs of Europe, in adj
ditiOn to his domestic duties, he
slipped I'D. Strangely enough. when
Mr.. Pitt took issue with Mr.. N. Bon
aparte on military matters the result
was not what might be called pleasant
to Mr.. Pitt or his country. Mr.. Pitt
is remembered by Irishmen chiefly as
the man who bought the Irish parlia-
ment. something which proves Mr..
Pitt to have been several generations
ahead of his time. Mr.. Pitt had Great
Britain so thoroughly bunkoed that
after he died the house Of commons
voted 100000 of the peoples money to
pay Mr.. Pitts debts. Mr.. Pitt never
married, because he was so busy run
ming his country he never had time
to get acquainted with any of the nice
girls Of that period.
Thomas d. Pitt was a pioneer in Cor
inne. and is well known as a statesman
and financier all over the Bear river
country and the Ogden union depot.
Mr.. Pitt is famed as a promoter of
duck clubs and as an astute political
manager. During a recent campaign
in Utah Mr.. Pitt. having been pre-
vailed upon to act as secretary OF the
republican state committee, was at his
post early and late writing please re-

young. and Will no doubt, be heard

THE RAGE QUESTION.

rod; the more sagacious have seen the
inevitable elimination long since.
though few have thought out the
remedies most likely to be effective.
Among white men there has been a
vague notion that the negro question
would work itself cut while the col
ored people themselves have had few

a decade that their rights could be Sc
cured only by earning them; that
thrift. industry and moral energy alone
could establish their social and civil

strated beyond question the fact that
no industrious, law-abiding negro need
fear for his peace, his personal comfort
or his place among his fellows, both
black and white.

THE EDITORIAL ASSOCIATION.

MO guests could be more welcome

Editorial association who have been in
salt Lake for the past two days. They

DRAMATIC DEcADENcE.

II1NRY TYRRELL, in the Forum.
L gives a discriminating review Of
the dramatic season just closed in
which he says: "The seven months
season. from September, 1902, to June,
1903 in New York. which is the
atrioally all America. brought forth
at the fifty play houses of this
metropolis seventy new plays, scarce
ly one Of which is likely or deserves to
survive. either as literature or as a
contribution TO the permanent roper
tory OF the stage"
Following the review in detail, one is
convinced that the preface is a mild
statement of a deplorable fact. Not
one of the plays in the entire list of
seventy has artistic merit enough to
justify more than passing mention; not
one has any of the elements Of per-
manency. With few exceptions. the
productions have depended solely upon
eXtravagant stage setting and costum-
ing, plus the fame of a well-advertised
star. for their financial success. In
rare instances, the supporting COM
panies have had number of excellent
people, but that mas been the excep-
ton rather than the rule. In practic-
ally every case the management has
aimed to exploit meretricious features
or appeal to a taste that had no re-
lation to any high standard, either in
art or morals. One might possibly ex-
cept Everyman and Idrs. Ffske in
Mary of Magdala," but even this lat
ter was something Of an appeal to the
public which cares more for a new SEN
sation than for the finer essence Of real
dramatic art.
one fact however, is noted with
pleasure. and that is the nat failure OF
the plays which were constructed
around themes Of degeneracy. DAN
nunzio's "Citta Morta," for instance
Is without redeeming feature, vet so
great an actress as Duse presented it
in New York and to the everlasting
credit Of the metropolis. Duse herself
could not make it succeed. While the
theatre-gOing public may tolerate a
suggestion Of immortality or situations
which shock their sense OF the pro-
prieties, the rebuke in this particular in
stance shows that there is a limit be-
You'd which not even genius may pre-
sumo to go.
Mr. Tyrrell ASSUMES that both the
syndicate and the independents have
lowered their standards of theatrical
taste to the level Of commerciaiism. and
he comes near proving his case. Ger
tainly, the list of productions he cites.
given by both organizations, would in
dictate that the box Office controls the
New York theatres with very little re-
gard for the artistic side of the bust
ness. Possibly such a policy may be
permanently profitable but human ma
ture is wont to revolt under such con-
ditions. and il may be questioned
whether the American public. tolerant
and easy-going as it is, win remain
placidly submissive much longer under
the attractions which bear the dollar
mark so conspicuously to the utter
obliteration Of all that is most pleasing.
most uplifting and desirable in dra-
matte art.
