REFORM NL4U=M4KIN
Ex.Attoraey General Griggs ar
Advocate of Deliberate LegiS-
lation.

John W. Griggs, at one time Attorney
General during the Mckinley admins
tration, where he achieved fame for his
ability as an exponent of the law, and
later one of the strongest members OF
The Hague tribunal, has lately been
~expounding to the people OF New Jer-
sey a doctrine OF real reform. II is
believed that he knows whereof he
speaks, for hardly any man in that
States political life should know either
the need for reform OF the difficulties
OF achieving il better than he. Before
President Mckinley induced him to
become a member of his Cabinet Mr..
| Griggs had earned his way to the head
of the New Jersey bar, served as MEN,
Der of the General Assembly and State
| Senator. been elected president OF the
latter body, and met the responsible
ties OF the goyernorship. He recently
spoke at a celebration on Forefathers'
Day in Orange, and laid this law down
mildly but clearly to the State politi-
clans in the name of the decent incl o.
the Commonwealth:
Publicity, 20 backstair legislation;
no passage of bills because some one
has o KID them beforehand; discus
sion of measures on the floor OF he
House; real reasons to the public Civ
en- why measures are favored or pro-
posed. and a return of the days when
legislative bodies were debating socie-
ties and the public favored as much
with reason for voting as with elo-
quence."
Mr.. Griggs advocates reform in the
enactment of State legislation when he
says:
Rarely is a bill read each of the
three constitutional times, except by IL
tie. 1t passes in accordance with a de.
cision made previously somewhere else.
| do not say the influence is an improp-
er one, but that influence was felt in
the side rooms or OF the back stairs
before the fate of a measure was de
cided. This method is a repression OF
individuality, sinking rights into a
mere expression of some one else's
views or wishes"
Reports from New Jersey seem to
show that legislation at Trenton is
practically in the same condition as
that which existed at Jefferson City
before Governor Folk washed the Mis-
souri, capital clean. The policy adyo-
Gated by Mr.. Griggs has a tendency to
break up the State Organization" for
actual debate. The return of the legis-
latures to their old standing as delib-
erative bodies puts a premium on in
dependent and personal individual
strengthened these qualities are the
death of Organization"

is believed that he hardly ever
had a case worthy the name. When
the war broke out he entered the vol
unteer army and rose rapidly TO a high
position, In August, 1898, when Ma
Mia fell. Mr.. Smith was made Deputy
Provost OF the city. Then he became a
member OF the commission which met
the agents of Aguinaldo at the begin
ming Of the following year. Later he
commanded the Island of Negros with
much success, and ultimately the De
partment OF the Visayas. This was but
a stepping stone for him to a place on
the bench, and later a promotion to a
commissionership.
Mr.. Smith has been successful as a
member of the Philippine Commission,
being in charge OF the educational sys-
tenn now being established in the
islands. He is close TO Secretary Taft,
understanding all of the Taft methods
Of dealing with Philippine problems.
A rumor is current that were Secretary
Taft to become President of the United
States Smith would more than likely
become Secretary Of War.

side by side with portraits painted by
Stuart and others of International
fame. Mrs. Mckinley has never seen
the original painting, but admires the
Photographic copies. The engraving
herewith presented lacks, of course, the
fine %coloring of the painting, but the
pose, the expression is strikingly i'm
pressiye to anyone who knew the be-
loved Mckinley in life. AS before
mentioned, the remarkable thing is
that the artist created the picture from

those who have seen the portrait to be
something little short of an inspiration.

Keeping a Big
Brewery Clean
Pabst Never Brews Beer on Saturday
Immense Plant, Always Clean,
Gets Weekly Srubbing.

Scrub day at the brewery! Readers
of The Salt Lake Herald didn't know
there is such a day, did you? Well,
there is at the big Pabst brewery in
Milwaukee and it is nothing but scrub
day" You might be surprised to see
how thoroughly the cleaning is done
and to know that on scrub day no other
work is attempted anywhere in the
brewery, except in the shipping depart
ment, of course, for the work there
never ceases.
Saturday is the Pabst scrub day all
the year round. If you We're to visit
the brewery on any Friday and were
told that on the following day the vast
plant would be shut down for cleaning,
you would say, II don't see any reason
why il should be. for it is clean now"
Yes, that's so. The Pabst brewery is
always clean-clean as the cleanest
kitchen-because it is kept clean. The
Pabst process of brewing beer is a
perfectly clean process. But the week
ly scrub day is considered by Pabst
an additional and important feature of
the keeping always clean process. 1t
is part OF the enormous price paid for
the absolute cleanness of Pabst Blue
Ribbon-the best beer ever brewed.
Not kettle boils, not a pint of beer
is brewed in the great Pabst plan on
Saturdays. In all parts of the brewery
the cleaners are at work with scrub
brush and water. The walls and floors
of cement and brick, every foot of
space every nook and corner from
the great cellars below the ground to
the top of the five and six-story build
ings, is cleaned until it fairly shines.
The very extreme of care is shown in
cleaning and rinsing the brew kettles,
watts and pipeS-nothing but pure
water, pumped to the reservoirs at the
TOP of the brew-house and great stor-
age warehouses and then filtered, being
used.
This weekly cleaning is so thorough
that we cannot even attempt to de-
scribe its effectiveness. and when you
stop TO consider that it represents
merely a part of the Pabst watchful-
ness against any possibility of con-
ANIMATION or impurity in Pabst Beer
'hen you will understand why we say
Dabet Blue Ribbon Beer is the cleanest
beer brewed. 1t is the purest beer and
the richest in food value, too. because
made only from Pabst exclusive eight
day malt, choicest imported hops and
pure water Money and skill cannot
buy or produce better ingredients.
Pabst exclusive eight-day malt, grown
slowly and naturally from finest barley,
retains all the food value of the barley
IN pre-digested form. and makes Pabst
Beer the most nourishing. most refresh
