LAST REGISTRATION CALL.

7 Asst call for registration.
l. The committees of the various par
ties were busy yesterday looking
up and taking to the registration Of
fees citizens who had failed to regis
ter. Carriages were in service in every
district. and from the amount of work
that was going on a stranger might
have imagined an election was in pro-
gress. 1t is a great pity that the ne
cessity for such work exists.
We see no objection to sending car
riages for aged infirm or crippled vot-
ers. either on registration or on cleo
ton days. But, surely, when able
bodied men and women wait for car
riages their standard of citizenship is
rot very high True, the party COM
mittees have encouraged this sort Of
thing. They have let it be known that
they will send carriages for all voters
who viii fix time when they desire TO
be driven to the registration Office or
the polls Therefore many voters de-
Hberately wait.
The committees would do a good
work and save a lot of money il they
would get together and agree to use no
carriages. William Jennings Bryan in
one OF his Indiana speeches said he
would advocate the passage OF a law
requiring every citizen possessing the
legal qualifications to vote at every
election or be fined. In such a law lies
the possible solution Of a great prob
lem. If people were required to vote
our campaigns would be very much
less expensive.
But this is the last call for registra-
tiCn.
II you did not register yesterday or
on one OF the other days set apart for
registration you must register today
or you VIII lose the vote you should
east next Tuesday. No other oppor-
tunity viii be offered you. The regis
tration yesterday was large, but all
the citizens who are entitled to vote
did not register. The total is far
enough short OF the estimates to carry
the election. That is. IL all those who
are not registered should register to-
day, and if all should vote the same
way, they would carry the election for
their candidates.
Registration is more important to
you than business today. Don't fail to
have your name placed on the book.

AS well might the saloon man who
wants TO sell whisky on Sunday, the
gambler who wants to conduct his ne
farious business all the time, talk
about personal liberty. We wonder If
the nti-vaccinationists see any signir
ficance in the fact that of all the chill
dren who have been attacked by small
pox in the Lowell school not one had
ever been successfully vaccinated? We
wonder if the parents of those children
do not wish now that they had been
guided by the advice of men who know
infinitely more about the treatment and
prevention of disease than they can
ever hope to know?
No better argument in favor of COM
pulsory vaccination could possibly be
furnished than that found in the
Lowell school case. The same trou-
BILE is likely to occur in any school
building in Salt Lake City, for a large
proportion OF the children, thanks 10
ignorance and prejudice, have never
been vaccinated. That there is no way
of keeping them out of school until
they are vaccinated is nothing short of
colossal crime.

PROGRESS OF CAMPAIGN.

ONLY FIVE MORE working days are
" left in the campaign Of 1904. The
real work will probably have been
finished by Saturday night next All that
viii remain for Monday will be the
rutting OF the finishing touches on the
party machinery. What of the outlook
in Utah?
Reports received by The Herald from
in various sections Of
the state indicate that great surprise
is in store for the Republicans. who
have been confidently claiming that the
only question worth considering is as
to the size of the Republican majority.
We hardly think even the Republicans
seriously believe they are going to
make a runaway race of it. There is
no apparent reason for their confidence,
IL confidence they possess.
The drift of sentiment is not toward
the Republicans, but toward the DEM
ocrats. Mckinley carried the state in
1900 by plurality of just 2,1S5 votes.
All of Us remember the tremendous in
fuences that were brought to bear in
that year for the success Of the Repub-
lican ticket The state committee had
practically limitless funds, it had a
perfect organization, its campaign was
ably conducted.
This year the committee has had no
great amount of money. the organiza-
ton is not worthy of the name, and the
campaign, as far as honest merit goes.
was exploded before it was fairly
launched. Instead Of fair, square fight
ing. the Republican battle has been
conducted mainly with the aid of lies
and Misrepresentation Almost from
the outset there has not been the slight
est appearance Of decency. We do not
believe the people OF Utah will endorse
such campaign in the only way it
could be endorsed-by electlng the Re-
publican ticket.
ht ASAnoCA&NiS CANVASS has uSeO
clean. able and fair. the exact antithe-
sis of the Republican canvass. Judge
o. w. Powers. candidate for congress;
James H. Moyle. candidate for gov
ernor, and all the other Democratic
nominees and speakers have confined
themselves TO proper issues. Occasion
ally they have felt the necessity Of
paying some attention to the Republic
an ISLANDERS and publications., but, hav-
ing nailed the lies, they have proceed
ed on legitimate lines.
The Democratic nominees will win
because they should win, because they
are the ADLER men, because they will
give the state an ADLER administration,
and because the only way TO secure
peace IN Utah is to elect the Demo-
cratic ticket from top to bottom.

n ASSOCIATED PRESS dispatch
Il announces another miscarriage of
justice in Minneapolis. Former
Mayor Alonzo A. Ames has been tried
for the third time for accepting brides.
4 single juror held out for acouittaI.
and the result was a mistrial. 1t is be-
lieved that Ames will not be tried
again, not because he is innocent. or
because anybody seriously believes him
10 be innocent, but because it seems
impossible to send him to the peniten-
tiary.
Ames was a CRATER of grafters
When he was mayor of Minneapolis it
was notorious fact that he shared in
the proceeds of robberies and other
crimes, at least indirectly; it was a no
toriOus fact that he levied tribute on
crooks and criminals of every descrip--
ton. 1t was shown at his first trial
that he had received money in speei-
fic case. and he was convicted. The case
was taken to the Minnesota supreme
court and reversed on a barefaced
technicality.
The jury disagreed at the second trial,
and. as stated. the same result, or lack
or result, was obtained from the third
and last hearing. Encouragement on
the part Of the prosecution at its fail
ure to punish Ames Is not to be Won
dered at. 1t would seem that every Eff
Fort TO convict him has been made One
was frustrated by complainant su-
pIeTre court and two others by jury
men who may have been offered some
inducement 20 vote for Ames' acquit-
tai In the light CT this case one is in
clined to ask if it Is possible to convict
eny criminal in Minnesota, provided
that crimin2I has money and friends.
The practical acquittaI of Ames also
makes us more inclined to favor the
theory OF one Of the justices of the SUI
preme court Of the United States that
there should be no right of appeal in
criminal cases. 1t is true that injustice
might T., ssibly be done in some in
stances, but in the great majority the
amendment to cur criminal code would
be beneficial to lie public morals. Ger
tainly there could be no rational objec-
j ton to an amendment that would pre-
vent the reversal of convictions on
purely technical grounds
As long e. it appears from the rec
ords of a court of original jurisdiction
that a defendant was properly convict
Ell. the fact that an improper question
was permitted or something of that
sort occurred should not warrant a re-
versal.
