HALE WOULD LET GO.

# HE DISCUSSION Of the naval ap-
L preparation bill in the senate on
Thursday brought out an interesting
statement from Senator Hale. who has
been loyal always to the Republican
party and to every one of its domestic
and foreign policies. Mr.. Hale said
that the last extensive additions 20 the
navy had been made necessary by our
acquisition of the Philippine islands
and that he, for one, would like TO get
lid of them.
This statement, coming from as
staunch a defender Of the administra-
ton as Senator Hale, is most interest
ing. He has at last come to the con-
clUsion that it would be a good thing
il the United States could get rid Of
the Philippines. That is the next
thing 10 admitting that a mistake was
made when we acquired them, or at
least that the form of government that
has been given the Philippines is not
what it should be, lacking, as It does.
al semblance Of independence for the
FiIipinos.
And speaking Of the Philippines re-
minds us that there are several DIFF
ferent kinds Of territories under the
flag Of the United States today. The
canal strip purchased from the Repub-
lie Of Panama viii, when the transac-
zion has been completed, add another
kind Of territory. We viii be able 10
apply some OF the laws Of the United
States there. but it will be governed.
4,roba b1v nv the United States ofici,re
mostly under the laws Of Panama.
We have one form Of government for
Oklahoma, Arizona and New Mexico.
an Of which are properly within the
United States. We have another form
Of government for Alaska which. as
was recently pointed out, is now gov
erned practically by a federal Judge
and a United States marshal. For
Porto Rico was have a government
that is partly monarchial and partly
republican, the Philippines are gov
eIned by our military forces, Guam and
some other islands used as coaling sta
lions are ruled by the navy. the ma
tional congress governs the District Of
Columbia much as a city council gov
erns a municipality, and our guano is
lands have no government at all
There is small reason for wonder
At Senator Hale's desire to eliminate
part of the patchwork, especially
when that portion Of it far away over
seas Is going to require $500 600
naval appropriation annually for its
protection.

TO RESTORE THE ROD.

! 4 GROWING DEMAND for the re-
u storation Of corporal punishment in
the public schools Of Chicago is noted
| by contemporary. which views with
approval the suggestion that only by
means Of the rod can unruIy boys be
/ made traetable. 1t has been some
years since the rod has been generally
| used in progressive public schools. and
in spite of the Chicago movement to-
ward its restoration. the public school
morale has not materially deteriorated,
/ If at all.
For our part we do not believe whip
pings make good boys out of bad boys
Some of the most hardened offenders
in the local public schools have been
whipped at home numberless times, but
they have not been improved thereby.
The trouble about this whipping propo-
sition is that it usually makes the boy
sulI<ier. As soon as the pain has ceased
he is willing 10 get into any kind of
devilment just by way Of getting even.
There are times when whippings seem
necessary, too, but a boy should never
be whipped except for the gravest sort
Of offense.
The best form of punishment for
school children is for them to be kept
in" Let a boy or a girl who has been
unruly be kept in for fifteen or TWEEN
~ minutes after the others have gone
hilariously on their way, and more
good viii be accomplished than by a
dozen whippings. Teachers object to
this penalty because they are sufferers
also. They want TO get away as badly
as the children, and they prefer to in
fict a punishment that viii affect only
the culprit.
Even in the home corporal punish
ment is resOrted to far less often
than in other days. Children are sent
to bed earlier than usual, they are de-
prived of some favorite dessert, they
are made to stand up in a corner for
a few minutes to reflect on their sins,
and they are punished in other ways
Parents are coming more and more to
realize, in the light of their own expe-
rience, that the whipping Of children
often does more harm than good. Solo
mon said: Spare the rod and spoil the
child but Solomon had a great many
wives and nobody knows how many
children, so he had to act very prompt
", and the rod was handiest.
And. by the way. if any of Solomon's
children amounted to very much. in
spite OF the fact that he was always
giving advice about the care of chill
dreu, we don't recall their names.

OUR IEDIscReEr GOVERNOR

EONERNOR WELLS appointment Of
" Apostle Heber J. Grant 10 repre-
sent Utah at the first international
congress on school hygiene to be held
IN Nuremberg, Germany, in April, was
most amazing indiscretion. to put
the case as mildly as possible. The
governor must credit the people of
Utah and the nation with surprisingly
short memories. Perhaps. though, il is
the memory OF the governor that is at
fault.
Has he forgotten that Apostle Grant
lied from Utah to escape prosecution
on a charge Of unlawful Capitalization?
Has he forgotten that this apostle
Haunted his pOlygamy in the faces of
young men and young women students
OF the university only few months
ago? If he has, we venture to refresh
his recollection a trife as to the facts.
Heber j. Grant, in a talk to the Uni
Versity Of Utah students. said that he
had given $50 to the scholarship en-
dowment fund.
Il have given $50 for myself and $50
for each Of my two wives" he said.
Then stimulated by the litter that ran
through mis- audience, he said: Yes.
/ have two wives and IL the laws Of the
land would permit 1 would take a
third"
This is the man Governor Wells Sc
lects as n representative from Utah
TO n school convention. And that, too,
in the face of the fact that the Mormon
church and Mormon people are on trial
before the nation today in the Smoot
case.
Why, If Heber J. Grant is a fit person
to attend a school convention as one of
the representatives of a sovereign
state, the governor should find some
absconding embezzler TO represent
Utah at the next international conven-
ton of bankers. He should by all
means locate Porter J. Conway, the
mortgage fOrger and thief. and make
him a delegate to the first international
assemblage of men who make a bust
ness of mortgage loans
Appointments of the character sug-
gested would hardly injure Utah more
than the appointment of Heber J.
Grant to the school convention at
Nuremberg. It is hardly to be expected
that the other delegates, IL they are
informed Of the circumstances sur
rounding Mr.. Grants departure from
this country, will care to fraternize
with him. Indeed, it is not improbable
that they viii refuse to permit him to
participate in their proceedings.
But perhaps Governor Wells is a bet
ter politician than we think. Perhaps
he really doesn't care whether Senator
Smoot loses his seat or not; perhaps
he would even smile If the senator
should be expelled.

sATIsFAcToRY vERpIc-

HE CONVICTION of the wife muir
derer Rose viii doubtless meet the
approval Of large majority OF the
people who have taken enough interest
IN the case TO read the testimony. on
Roses own showing he should have
been convicted. The man is not in
sane, as contended by the defense. He
is merely a moral pervert. An insane
man does not know the difference be-
tween right and wrong.
Rose knew when he fired the shot
that killed his wife that he was com
hitting murder. He knew that in all
human probability he would be called
upon TO pay the penalty. And, TO do
the fellow justice, he has not sought
to evade the penalty. On the other
hand, his every word and action since
his arrest indicate his willingness to
suffer death for numbering his wife.
There is no reason for any great delay
in carrying into effect the verdict Of
the jury.
o We can see no necessity for taking
the case to the supreme court, though
that is a usual proceeding in all MUIR
der cases, no matter how clearly the
guilt of the defendant has been es-
tablished. Rose Is a human viper too
miserably low for words. He lived on
the proceeds Of his wife's dishonor, and
the chances are that he murdered her
because he feared a cessation of his in
come from that source. The sooner he
is put out Of the way the better it
VIII be for the community.
1t may be argued by those who are
opposed to capital punishment that the
execution of Rose win not have the
effect or preventing other wife muir
ders. We grant, for arguments sake,
that the contention is correct, but at
the same time the wife murderers that
are executed viii never murder any
more women, and that much is worth
while, after all
Rose says he wants his execution &C
compl!shed as speedily as possible. Not
70 be outdone in courtesy, the proper
officers should accommodate him. Let
him be put out of the way without de-
law

The state democratic con-

differences of the two,fac-
lions here. Judge Pusey,
who managed the Bryan
campaign In the state four
years ago as chairman ofthe
state, committee, heads one
faction, while Aid. John
McC Cullen heads the other.
Pussy is backed by the dem
ocrats of long standing, be-
sides he has The Gazette
with him. E. s., Wilson, it's
editor, though previous to
this convention a populist,
having now cast his politi-
cal fortunes with the dem
oerats- The Pusey conven-
ton was called to order by
the regular chairman. Il
seems tbehave been the reg
ular convention, with the
tried democrats, officers,
ETC., except for time and
numbers, and there lies the
point of dispute. The Nc
Cullen people claim that at
the hour of 2, the time ad-
vertised, they went TO the
courthouse with numbers
sufficient tooutyote all com
ers, when to their surprise
the Pussy people were adj
journing, having held a con-
vention, as they said at the
advertised hour. The Nc
Cullen faction then went
ahead and held theirs. AS
both factions claim they
met at the advertised hour
it Eill be hard to get at the
facts, as every man gener-
ally swears by his own
watch. The McCullen peo-
pie claim the Pussy fellows
turned their watches ahead.

crowd tarried to pick up
