TIE DEAD ALIVE.

notwithstanding tho fact that for,
ner President Willinm Bulge has de-
parted from Bear Lake County TO take
up official duties for the Mormon
church at Logan, Utah, his influence
over the Mormon paper published at
Paris, Idaho, is still perceptible. The
latest issue of that sheet TO reach The
Tribune is dated July 10, 1906, and it
contains lengthy editorial opening
with these sentences:
Senator Dubois has not beon heard from
for eome time now, snd apparently nc 10
keeping very quiet for the present. Mono
him since Congress adjourned, and our Dem.
ocrntic friende, and tho public in general,
are in quandary 70 know where the een.
tlemhu is and what he ia doing,
The fears OF the Paris Post have
probably been resolved by this time
While the editor Of that delectable
sheet was writing his article some Of
the leading Eastern journals were
publishing lengthy interviews with Sen
ator Dubois IN which tho relation OF
the Mormon church to the political af-
fairs of the intermountain country was
clearly and forcefullv exposed And
on the day following the publication of
the Paris Post s article Senator Dubois
VI
views were on the questions Of most
vivid interest
But, then, what difference should it
make 10 the Paris Post, and why
should 1T still he anxious about Senator
Fred t. Dubois of Idahoi Two months
ago the Post wrote his obituary If
he were dead, then why does the Post
insist upon parading him in his cere.
ments7 IL begins TO look as if the
Post fears that, like Lazarus, Dubois
will rise again.
There is the old story OF the Car
of Russia who could not sleep nights
while Napoleon lived, although the
Corsican was imprisoned on the Isle of
st. Helena. IT looks as If the hierarchs
are IN the same mental attitude toward
Dubois.
The Post says that people do not
know what Dubois is doing He is still
doing Smootism.

MEN WANTED.

Several men have called at The
Tribune office within the week past,
asking for contributions of money or
transportation to assist them to find
employment And at the very moment
of their request there is demand for
thousands and thousands Of laborers on
railroad and other work in this imme-
date vicinity, at wages unprecedented
in the United States, and therefore
unprecedented in the civilized world
for this class Of toll. What has come
to this generation Of men that so
many of them refuse to get ont and
work with their hands7 Among those
who have applied at The Tribune for
help there was not one but could have
performed days labor with pick and
shovel if need be; but all of them
wanted positions as salaried bookkeep-
ers, confidential clerks, etc. They
would prefer to wait and live upon
contributions or to accept the benevo-
lence of railway ticket to some other
point than to answer the loud resound.
ing call which the construction com
panies and the employment agencies
are making throughout the streets of
Zion for men to build, build, build
something.
There is no need for any able bodied
man to be idle in this community. The
day laborer today commands better
wages than the average clerk, and has
less expenses. When an unskilled arti-
san, working on railroad grade, can
get $3.50 a day, for an able man to be
idle is sin and to beg is a crime

A PARASITES GRAFTON,

The Deseret News publishes pre-.
tended special report of an oration at
Iona, Ida, by one of the Gentle para
sites of the Mormon church. In the
course of his remarks that parasite
said.
On the 1st day OF June, 1880. the first
conforcnce was held, aud the church con.
sisted OF thirty members.
Then came (Fred Dubois and Thomas G
Kearps and d. Mostyn Owen.) I mean then
came series Of arrests and trial Of Joseph
Smith, charging him with everything that
was bad. On all cases he was acquitted
What the parasite meant probably he
did not know. He merely told the tale
as it was told to him to tell, and he
did not need to understand. If the
little bug intended to be taken liter
ally hIs remark was nonsense; for the
men whom he names were not born at
the time of which he speaks If he
meant 20 be taken fguratively, there
is no Application to his remark unless
he wishes to be understood as insinu-
ating that polygamy and polyga nous
practices are not against the law. Pre-
snmably that is what he is trying ia
convey, and the only reason why he
does not make the bold assertion ,s
that his employers did not desire IN
have the Infamous stiitemeut made that
way.
If the bug really desires to make a
pertinent observation, let him saw that
when the Mormon church got rich. its
carcass wns so tempting that there
fastened upon it the parasite pediculus
