NO CHANGE NEEDED,

Some curious results have been
brought about the present year In the

sec, and I'm Virginia the candidate "ho

posed the election of Senator'S In that

Legislatures which next meet VIII as
n matter of course elect the people )
choice TO the Senate.
Throughout the South the system OF
popular selection of Senators has pre-
vailed for some time. 1t works well,
aud undoubtedly the people have their
choice and are satisfied with 1t. n
system of selection which operates well
from Florida to Oregon and which mp
pears to be increasing In favor, can
certainly not be argued much against,
nor does tho prevalence Of such sys-
TEN leave much room for an argument
for n constitutional change when that
change has already been made In fact
by the people, 1t is true that the Leg
islotures must ratify the popular
choice when manifested thus at tho
polls, but that ia precisely In line with
the change which was practically made

the Legislatures merely register the

rectsd by law.

KNOCKING THE STATE,

The organs Of the church pol1tlcei
ouorums were not able to SEQ anything
but a knock at the welfare of this CRY
this county. and this State. In tho eN-
rosure of tho wrongdoings OF tho MOT
mon leaders, and yet these same organs
pretend that they are serving COM
munity progress when they attach'
with ribald menGacity, the most com
petent administration this city has ever
had
They villify the police department.
when 1t Is known Of all citizens that
moro complete suppression OF CRIME
has never been effected in any city OIL
the United States than in Salt Lake
since the American party came INTO
power 1t is only necessary to scan
the columns of the church organs
themselves and the columns OF thel'
political allies; it Is only necessary 10
view tho public record of crime COM
mitted and crime detected. to learn the
facts.
Similarly they make war on the
health department OF the city, faIsiiH-
ing the reports and giving out VICIOUS
misinformation to the public concern
Ing the enforcement of sanitary condi-
tjons here. a perusal OF the columns
of these same vindictive newspapers
and study of the records of the pup
lie health will demonstrate that never
before In the history Of salt Lake, IN
proportion TO population. has this city
been In a better condition of health.
There is no surcr way to knock the
reputation Of q city than to circulate
the idea that the police protection is
bad and that the public health is en-
dangered by poor administration OF
sanitary laws. And yet upon these two
vital points the organs of the political
quorums Of the church have been
steadily, wilfully, maliciously 2ibeling
this community. Their sole anxiety
seems TO be that the peculiar offenses
OF the Mormon leaders are not to be
assalled lest the reputation of the COM
monwealth shall be injured abroad.
But they take license to defamc the
community and to warn away the men
OF means who would gladly come here
TO establish themselves In business.
And these evil journals do all this out
of mere hate of the party which was
organized to enfranchise the city and
the State.
According TO these petty and Nenal
newspapers of the political organs OF
the church, the only personages in this
commonwealth entitled to considera-
ton are violators Of law. and the per-
sons whom It is righteous to abuse are
those who have engaged determinedly
in the labor Of establishing good gov
ernment here for all who dwell within
the State OF Utah and all who. by good
conditions, may be invited into her
borders.

THAT INSOLENCE.

The political prime minister of the
Utah monarchy having stated that the
place for the old soldier Is up in
front" we may reasonably expect to
hear the same sentiment echoed by his
subordlnates. Senator Sutherland ana
Congressman Howell. When the three
sing this song in chorus, 1t will be re-
echoed throughout the wales of Utah;
and, in brief time. the followers OF
the Mormon cult Will assume that tho
old soldier never had any recognition
in the United States until Apostle
Smoot and his political allies concluded
that the time had come TO compensate
the wearer of the blue for his devotion
to the Union and the flag.
1t would be on a par with some other
things that have been accomplished in
Utah if, by constant iteration OF that
empty expression In behalf OF the old
soldier, the political apostle of the
church should be able to convince the
body OF the Latter-day Saints that God
had at last expressed his approval OF
Lincoln, Grant, and the results Of Civn
war. Apostle Smoot shows his ten
dency by his bombastic assumption
that the old soldier was only complete
ly recognized when Smoot concluded 10
recognize him.
The difference between Shoots vapid
| talk, and the real friendship and esteem
which the old soldier should command,
|
one old soldier has been sought out for
any important Federal position by the
entire Utah delegation in Congress, An
old soldier might have been District
Attorney; but no, the place was needed
| for a gentleman who had performed
valiant service "at the front" In behalf
Of Reed Smoot in the contest before
the Committee on Privileges and Elec-
tlons An old soldier might have been
United States Marshal; but no, the
| place was needed for a priest. An old
soldier might have been postmaster at
Salt Lake; but no, the third term was
! granted TO political sutler. Two old
soldiers might have filed the positions
of Register and Receiver at the Nernal

An old soldier is Register of the Salt

a SENATOR" ORDAINS.

In one of the Mormon prints 1t Is re-
corded that at Provo Apostle Smoot's
own and home town. on Sunday last
Mormon bishop was ordained. and that
Senator Smoot acted as mouthptece OF
the ordination ceremony"
The manner of stating the event is an
unconscious tribute to the effort which
Is being made here TO segregate State
from church. Reed Smoots fellow be-
levers and political camp-followers,
when he appears as an apostle, think
of him as a Senator. and when he ap-
pears as a Senator think of him as an
apostle.
But there is more in the case than
the mere interchangeabillty OF titles,
with the swift transition from apostolic
cloak to senatorial toga or the wearing
Of dual robes. Let the intelligent OBJ
server of affairs In Utah consider the
prospective attitude in politics and
business OF the particular bishop who
was consecrated TO this office under the
hands of Senator Smoot." From the
