GUILD ON BRIBERS.

4" RENTED FINANCE" LAWSON
said in a recent article that Mas
sachusetts legislators are bought and
sold as are fish and sausagcs In the
markets OF the old Bay state. Indi-
rectly referring to this, Lieutenant Gov
ernor Curtis W. Guild said the other
day in a public address:
THE strongest argument for govern
mont ownership, the argument of despair.
Is that it is the only relief from graft.
Yet l repeat, graft could never exist but
Tor IN" man behind the CRATER. Tho cor
poratiOn promoter who buys the alderman
needs the strong hand of the law, as well
as the moor wretch who sells himself.
In my official capacity. l have been in
the way of seeing much of the sort Of
people who support lawlessness by care
leSsness- Trial by jury has been obtained
after centuries of struggle and revolution
II IS the fashion now to scott a it as a
farce ana to cite certain ridiculous
Verdicts by ignorant jUries. What bust
ness man can put his hand on his heart
and say that he never in his life Shirked
jury duty. and that no unrighteous verdict
is due at least to his own neglect to Sc
cure justice to his country men when
asked TO do so at the sacrifice of con
venience 10 himself? You ask the gov
ernor of the state 10 stand up like man
against mawkish appeals for paTdOns. Do
YOU stand up when the appeal is made
To YOU
Mr.. Guilds statements. 1t is the man
behind the CRATER who most deserves
condemnation and punishment. If
there were no bride givers there could
be no bride takers. There are very
few instances. comparatively speaking.
i'm which men elected to office for the
first time solicit brides. Ninety-nine
times out Of a hundred they are ap-
reached. directly or indirectly, by the
bride giver.
resent the idea of accepting money
for their votes But they see older Of
fceholders taking money, apparently
without risk of exposure and without
losing the respect of their fellows. The
graft atmosphere is around them and
at last they become so saturated with
it that what at first was most repUg-
nant becomes the only natural thing
to do. And the bride giver is respon-
sible.
On the question Of jury duty Mr.
Guild is equally forcibIe. Very few
substantial citizens can solemnly af-
firm with truth that they have never
attempted to eyade jury duty: very
few can declare that no miscarriage
of justice can properly be laid at their
door. Until the bride giver and the
evader of jury service are eradicated
we cannot hope for much purihcatiOn

THE FRANCHISE QUESTION.

IT IS USUAL for a public service cor
poratiop to ask 4 good deal more of
city than it expects to get, i'll order
that it may eventually seem to make
concessions" graciously i'm accepting
all, OF more than it hoped for. Wheth-
er the Utah Light q Railway company
has followed this time-honored custom
or not. it has succeeded i'm committing
the council committee to "a very liberal
proposal involving the extension of
franchises some years, when at least
one Of those franchises was given d
twenty-five year addition in 1902.
II would be unfair to pass over the
proposed reduction i'm charge for light
service. which would effect a material
saving TO the smaller consumers espe-
cially. but. while negotiations are on,
the council ought 10 make an effort
for further saving to the people, in
the minimum charge for light. in in
tcrest on meter deposits and in charges
for gas for fuel purposes. and at the
same time secure some sort of agree
ment for the betterment Of the street
car service.
Another point suggests itself: Under
the old franchises the city had the
right to string wires on the company $
poles free Of charge. That provision
is useful because the city might want
to own it's own lighting plant, and
the poles would be needed in such an
event Moreover. the knowledge that
such provisO was in force would serve
to make the company cautious about
the kind of service it gave. If this Is
not already included in the new propo-
sition it should be.
There need be no disposition to en-
barrass the company or hamper it sim
ply because il is in a trying position;
but at the same time there should be
10 hesitancy about handling the whole
matter on a purely business basis. The
company wants some privileges it can
get only from the city; the city wants
clear title To the Big Cottonwood
water right. In the negotiations, the
company asks a good deal more than
it is entitled TO or should get. The
problem now is to be fair and at the
same time exact those things the city
should have and has a right TO de-
maud.
In considering the problem. the coun-
ell is acting solely for the city. though
Fcrnstron and few others seem to
think they are representing the COM
pauy and not the city. The citizens
committee has already served "A good
purpose i'm pointing out what the peo-
pie desire; and it will earn the graft
tudc Of the community if it shall inn
press still more forcibIy upon the coun-
ciluen the fact that they are acting
for tine people auG only for the peo-
pie.

Those who fixed the salary of judge
of the juvenile court at S16.66 per month
can successfully resist the charge that
they are actuated by philanthropic mo-
tives.
If the people Of GoIdfeId are willing
to pay the price. Salt Lake merchants
should be willing to supply the goods.
Excessive mOdesty should not be con-
sidered in a case like this.
Officials of the Portland exposition
can probably save themselves much
future bother by Immediately extending
proper COurteSieS to members of the
Utah house of representatives. A pass
in time often saves much telegrap hing.
As q precautionary measure President
Roosevelt should make all his dickers
with both MeSsrS. Morales and Jim
inez. There is no telling which Of the
gentlemen named viii be on deck next
week.
Mr.. Gessler Rosseau's assertion that
one Of his Internal machines wrecked
the Maine is likely to go unchallenged.
To date he is the only one who has laid
claim to the honor.
Evidently it has not occurred to the
Congregational preachers that Mr..
ROckefeller'S 100000 might be thor
Oughly fumigated and thus made tit to

IT viii be noted that the indictment
by the beef trust grand jury is not
based ON a charge of skinninE the pub
lie. but of tampering with a witness.
which scarcely goes TO the meat of the
matter.
But IL the preachers really wish to
make that 100000 a power for good
they viii accept the money, purchase
100, 600 handsomely engraved copies Of
the Golden Rule and mail a copy each
day TO Mr.. Rockefeller until the stock
is exhausted.
The removal of the Panama commits
sion gives reason to believe that the
canal viii now be built.
II ROjestvenskv has started out to
find Togo, il may safely be predicted
that the Russian second squadron is
en- route TO join the Russian Port Ar
thur squadron.
Mr.. ROckefeller's interest in reform
work is not likely to take the form of
contributions to assist in curbing the
trusts.
