WARREN MISSES VOCATION.

CENATOR WARREN Of Wyoming
- has missed his vocation. Instead
OF occupying a seat in the United
States senate he should be on the min
strel stage. Judging from one Of his
recent performances in the senate he
would surely make a great hit in black
face. Senator Tillman was engaged in
a heated colloquy with Senator Bailey
OF Texas. He was very much Interest,"
ed in what ne was saying and Senator
Warren saw chance TO add to the
hilarity Of the occasion.
He walked over to Tillman and, with
out attracting the attention of the
South Carolinian, withdrew from one
OF the Tillman pockets a bottle OF the
half-pint variety. 1t was perfectly APP
parent that the bottle was used for
medicine OF some sort, for il was not
modelled on the lines Of a whisky flask.
That didn't jar Warren. however With
one eye on the galleries and the other
on tie senate. Warren held up the bot
tie as if measuring a drink. then pulled
out the cork and smened the contents.
Next he replaced the bottle without
T.llman being the wiser ard returned
10 his own seat.
An account says: 1.-THE galleries
roared with laughter. Some Of the sen
stors laughed aiso,- but others looked
shocked. All realized that a terrible
breach Of senate etiquette had been
committed" Later there was some
thing further doing. Tilman found
out what had happened ard he imme-
diately and swiftly walked over to
where Senator Warren was sitting.
When he arrived there he pulled out
the bottle and explained to Warren
that it contained medicine.
Il want to say" he said, that I have
an liberated throat and the bottle in
my pocket contains something for its
relief. II 1 had thought that the SEN
ator from Wyoming wanted a drink I
should have provided something, which.
when 1t reached his nose. would not
have gone back into my pocket" Ac-
cording to the account Senator Warren
looked "pained and foolish" at this
juncture. Then followed this converse
ton.
We all know that the senator from
South Carolina neither drinks nor
touches alcoholic liquors"
DO not go too far" cried Tillman,
turning on him. "for 1 do both. But
never get drunk. except at a banquet.
and then I do not get go drunk that 1
have to be hauled home"
All OF which viii be very edifying 70
Senator Warren's constituents and TO
the country at large.

THE PORTER CASE.

BECAUSE GEORGE z. PORTER
II could rot or would not rule his own
spirit a quarrel that might have been
only a small family tiff has ended in
the death of ore who took part. Porter
Is in jail and may be tried on a charge
OF murder. His father-iu-law. Benja-
min r. Haddock, is dead. For a real
or fancied grievance Porter began a
quarrel with his wife early Monday
night. one witness said the trouble was
started over so trivial matter as the
question as 10 whether or not the
kitchen chimney would draw.
One took the position that it would;
the other asserted that it would not.
The quarrel waxed warmer and warm
er and finally Porter began smashing
the furniture. His wife protested and
ne struck her. She screamed for help
and her father HaddOck, who lived
near by. came TO her rescue. He saw
blood flowing from a cut in his daugh-
ters head and. though he had but one
arm, he promptly grappled with her
assailant.
Aiad with rage. Porter forgot that his
antagonist was very much his inferior
physically; he forgot that Haddock was
the father of his wife. a demon of
anger seemed TO possess him and he
fought the old man as he would have
fought a stranger who came TO disrupt
his home Soon Haddock quit strug-
CLING. Porter released him and he
staggered, half-conscious. to his home.
There he died within an hour. It may
be that the injuries inflicted by Porter
were not sufficient in themselves to
cause Haddock's death. But certainly
they contributed TO it; certainly it can
be said with truth that had it not been
for Porter. HaddOck would not have
died Monday night.
There is a lesson in this broken home,
a lesson that every one OF Us may profit
by. Keep your temper at all times and
under all circumstances. The man who
loses his temper loses his fight. one way
or another. Inability to rule their own
spirits has caused as much sorrow and
desOlatiOn ard woe in this world as
any other thing that can be named.

THE TOWN OF BINGHAM


NOW BINGHAM HAS STEPPED
~ out % dresses and INTO trousers.
First thing ne Know poor old sSiother
salt Lake county won't have any
babies AZ all The children are grow
ing up. Not so very long ago Murray
graduated into trousers and red-topped
boots with all the trimmings that go
with lusty youth Bingham is the last.
And though Bingham IS only two days
cid as an Incorporated town. though
she has not as yet had a chance to try
her wings. as il were. she has made a
start that augurs well for her future
prosperity.
The people Of Bingham. always en-
terprising, always up TO date. are en-
titled to congratulations on their latest
example Of progress. The '.Old Reli-
able camp has for years been the
states heaviest producer of copper:
for years She has been pouring her
wealth into, as one of our statesmen
50 eloquently puts It. the laps OF our
hresides." With a population far in
excess OF many incorporated towns
about the state the only wonder is that
the people of Bingham did not long
since take up the reins Of their own
government.
Some day Bingham may conclude to
admit Salt Lake City to her borders.
There's no telling. The day may come
when Bingham viii want us and when
wen DE mighty glad to get in. In the
meanwhile Wen have TO worry along
somehow, separate geographically and
distinct as to governments but one

SALARY INCREASE PROPOSED.

= ENATOR GALLINGEE has intro
y duced in the upper house of con-
sress a bill Increasing the pay of the
president, vice president. cabinet off,
GERS. senators and representatives. He
proposes to give the president $4,000 a
year. the vice president $4,000. the
speaker OF the house Of representatives
$1,000, Members Of the cabinet $4,000
and senators and members of the house
$4,000. The president is now paid $780,
900, tho vice president 5000, the speak
er of the house s.. 600. members of the
cabinet 5000 and senator's and repre-
sentatives 5000.
1t is quite probable that a great deal
Of opposition to the bill will develop.
but it is really not reasonable, especial
ly as it does not become effective. IL
passed. until March 4. 1905. This will
make the increase applicable. to some
senators during the terms for which
they were elected, but il will affect
none Of the other officers as far as their
present terms are concerned. The in
crease seems. to be necessary because Of
the great expense Of living I'm Wash
ington.
1t has come to be generally REGARDED
as a true saying that a member OF con-
sress or cabinet officer cannot live
on his salary in any except the most
modest style. There are certain an
pearances that they must keep up. or
that custom demands that they keep
Up, and many Of them have a great
deal OF difficulty in making ends meet
as the saying goes. What is true of the
members Of congress is true to more
marked extent OF the cabinet officers.
Members of the cabinet are expeeted
to do great, deal of entertaining. TO
maintain expensive establishments and
to go out in society.
The president is in much tho same
shape. II he does his full duty I'M the
line OF entertaining he will spend aU
Of his $4,000 and his allowance. and
more. The president pays no house
rent or light or fuel bills. many OF his
servants are paid by the government.
his horses and carriages cost him Moth
to give a great dinner and the president
must give number Of them during the
course Of a season. And he has rum
berless other expenses that must be
met out Of his private purse.
While it is true that a question OF
salary has never yet kept a man cut
OF the presidency, it is also true that
the nation should not be niggardly with
ITS chief servant. Men have been kept
out OF the senate and the house and
the cabinet because they could not az
FORD 10 take the places. but such in
stances are extremely rare. And some
or the members Of congress and of the
cabinet would be very dear at half the
money they are now receiving while
others would be cheap at twice the
present salary schedule.

THE REMARKABLE CANON.

The Protestont Episcopal church In
this country seems to stand exactly
whore It stood three years ago, on the
question Of the remarriage Of divorced
persons IN 1901 the subject was thor
oughly discussed nj the general conyen-
ton held In San Francisco. An attempt
was made ot that time TO make II un-
lawful Tor ministers TO marry divorced
persons unless their former marriage
was annulled by decree Of some civil
court Of competent jurisdiction for
cause existing before such former mar
rIage" This proposition passed the
house Of bishops but II was rejected
by the deputies The matter was, how
ever. referred TO committee Of fifteen
members, FIVE bishops, five clergymen,
ana five lay members with instruction
to report at the present convention
This committee presented majority,
and minority report The majority
recommended that whenever any ques-
ton arose as to the legality Of the APP
plcatlon Of either party to the mar
ilage ceremony, questions Of fact shall
be referred 20 the bishop Of the do
ccse, who shall make such inquiry AS
he shall deem expedicnt and deliver his
Judgment IN the premises The minor
ity report provided that questions OF
fact shall be determined by the record
Of the civil court which adjudged or de-
creed the divorce. The two houses
have again failed 10 agree on an
amendment to the canon on that sub
iect, and the matter viii again, we pre-
sumo go to some committee. or be
dropped for the time being.
The attitude OF some Of the leading
churches on the question OF the remar-
rage Of divorced persons Is not radi-
cany different IN theory whatever the
general practice may be. The ProIes'-
ant Episcopal church does not permit
It's ministers to marry persons who are
divorced, otherwise than Gods word
doth allow" II the cause arises after
the marriage. In the Roman
Catholic church the rule is, We believe.
that no one who Is once validity married
can marry as long as the other party
is alive except by special dlspensatlon'
Presbyterian ministers We belieye,muI
refuse to perform the ceremony IN
cases Of divorced persons, except where
the divorce has been obtained upon
grounds recognized as scriptural. The
Methodlsts do not recognize divorce,
except for lnndelIty, and only the limo
cent party is. In their view, entitled
10 remarry, except II the divorced per-
sons desire to resume the marriage re-
latlon.
The discussion on this subject aims
at combating one Of the great eylls Of
our time. But when IL Is thoroughly
considered, it appears clear that the
laws already existing are ample
enough II they were applied consist
entity Respect for law is even more
needed that multiplication. or recon-
sructon Of laws
