GOVERNOR FOLK COMING.

II will be a great pity if Governor
Folk of Missouri who is scheduled to
visit Salt Lake within the next few
days, is not given an opportunity TO
address the local public. Governor
Folk looms large on the national hori-
ION just now. AS a fearless public
Official, both i'm the Office of circuit
attorney and in the high place he now
holds. Governor Folk has achieved ma
tiOnal prominence. IL he could be
persuaded TO deliver an address in the
Salt Lake theatre or some other place
the people here would be distinctly
the gamers,
II this is not practicable steps should
be taken 70 have a public reception in
his honor. Although Governor Folk
is a Democratic executive he is so big
a man that no question of partisanism
should enter into arrangements for his
entertainment here. II will be in order
for Governor Cutler TO ascertain the
exact date Of Governor Folks arrival
and the probable length Of HIS stay I'm
order that plans may be gotten under
way at once.

TIE CHOLERA OUTLOOK.

Although assurances are given that
there is little likelihood of an invasion
of cholera as result of the outbreak
in Germany, it is well 10 make assur-
ance doubly sure by taking every
precsution possible In these days of
advanced sanitary science it is not at
all probable that there could be any
such epidemics as visited this country
at intervals during the last century.
Quarantine methods are more effective,
and the public generally knows better
how to take care Of itself
BY way OF further comfort it may be
said that the mortality percentage in
cholera, as reported from Germany
during the present outbreak. is only
about seventeen per cent. This seems
Very high when compared with some
other epidemic diseases, but in the
old days it was not unusual for the
death roll TO number fifty and even
seventy-hve out of each hundred VIC
Tins OF the disease. If proper precau-
tions are observed we are told that
cholera can be wiped out.
The disease has its origin usually III
countries where the people pay no
attention whatever TO sanitary regula-
tions. where they are crowded together
and where they suffer always from NAL
nutrition. The worst form of cholera,
called Asiauc cholera, because its
home is in India, iustifies the con-
clusion that, where people are well fed,
where they are clean and comfortably
housed, the danger of an outbreak is re-
duced to a minimum. Every severe out
break of cholera since the disease first
became known, has, according 10 an
authority, been traced directly to
India
The bacillus Of cholera was discovered
by Koch in Egypt in 1888, following his
discovery Of the cause of tuberculosis.
It is described as "a rod-shaped
organism generally presenting a
slight curve, whence the name by
which it is often known. comma
bacillus; but under certain cir
cumstances it is seen as long spiral
threads, and is. therefore, strictly
speaking, a spirlllum."
The last appearance OF cholera in this
country was in 1866. That outbreak
was not as serious. however, as pre-
ceding ones. Many deaths were caused
by it in 1882. 1S4S and 1854. Cholera Is
not carried by the air and wind and is
communicable only by direct contact.

MO FAILURE PROVEN.

Some newspa pers are arguing that,
because Governor Montague, who is
undoubtedly the ADLER man, was de-
feated for the United States senator
ship in the recent Virginia Democratic
primary election the election Of
senator's BY the people is false
theory. The Virginia result does not
prove anything OF the kind. 1t is true
that Senator Martin. who defeated
Governor Montague, was the machine
candidate, and it is true that Montague
is the better man. But local conditions
we're largely responsible for the re-
suit.
The people OF a state cherish the
notion that when they give the gov
ernorship 10 one OF their citizens that
Office should satisfy him, at least
temporarily. Many states, Utah in
GUIDED. have constitutional provisions
against the governor becoming a
candidate for United States senator
While holding the ofice OF chief execu-
tive. Whether or not this provision
would operate as a bar TO the entrance
into the senate OF an elected governor
has not been determined. 1t might not.
but the provision is nevertheless a
sound one.
lt might as we'll be argued from the
Virginia case that all popular elections
are failures. II it is wrong to elect
senator's by popular vote. why is it not
also wrong to elect members of the
lower house and presidency by vote
of the people? Many unworthy men get
into congress, some have even &C
cupied the presidential chair. But we
have heard 10 sensible citizen arguing
that the privilege OF electing represen-
tatives and presidents should be taken
away from the people.
Popular election Of senator's viii as
suredly not be a guarantee that every
senator is all that ne should be. Men
who are not ft 10 be senators will be
elected by the people occasionally. The
only contention IN favor of the plan
that cannot be cOntroyerted is that the
average viii be raised considerably.
And If it is not raised, the people who
vote and who pay the expenses Of the
country will have only themselves to
blame.

there were really TO graft in Europe
this would be a splendid addition 10
the immigration laws.
As a matter OF fact, though. Europe
fairly reeks with graft. One of the
causes assigned for the defeat of
Russia in what we may now call the
late war between Russia and Japan,
was the grating carried on by high
Russian officials. There was the story
of the hospital train filled with deli
cacies for wounded soldiers that was
looted OF absolutely everything of
value il contained before it was 200
miles out of St. Petersburg.
And the stories of taxes wrung from
starving peasants and recklessly
squandered by the tax gstherers are
almost without number. Yes. the
grating in Russia has been and is open
and notorious, and Russia is part of
Europe. Nor does Russia stand alone
in this regard.
In the matter Of the Panama canal
the French made a record Of graft
that other grafters have tried in vain
to equal. 1t will probably stand as a
record for all time. 1t seems to us that
We have heard. too, of a systematic
sale of French decorations, including
the Legion Of Honor. TO the highest
bidders.
Spain and Italy reek with graft
Travellers say there is hardly a town in
either in which the officials are not
easily subject 10 the influence Of a
money! bride. Grating in war supplies
has been charged against England.
Indeed. Holland and Switzerland
are about the only old world countries
about which ugly tales of this character
are not told, and it may be that the
dishonest officials there have merely
been able TO cover their tracks.
