THE NEW PILGRIMS.

Old Bill Sheen had been a miner in
Nevada for forty years; he had pros
pected from Washoe county to Lincoln
county: he had touched elusive Fortune
with his fingertips, and when she had
vanished he had subducd self and had
accepted wages for his toll until he
could procure, for part cash and part

dream for a generation and that was the
hope that still burned brightly in his
breast when he was so years old and on
the threshold Of the grave.

Lake as his Mecca, Always hospitable
TO the Nevada miner, this city has as
sumed larger proportions IN his eyes in
recent years, because of commercial ac-
tiyity here, because of the newly es-
tablished political conditions here. and
because San Francisco-the beloved of
previous geperations-has through her
misfortunes forever ceased TO be the old
San Francisco; she may have new gran
deur In the early years to come, but she
will never be again the familiar home Of
the oldtimc miner Of Nevada.
Salt Lake, with her quick sympathy
for the dangers and the struggles, with
her high appreciation of achievement,
with her ready cooperation for good
enterprises, with her large participation
in the new movement In Nevada, is
the ultimate of the new pilgrim IS hopes,
and it is TO her that the wealth and
the population will flow.

TRIBUNE,

as the representative of the most VIC

this campaign has afforded, though be-
ing himself a pretty broad gauge man,
and above such vile meanness as that
convention practiced.
In the Fifth ward. Judge II. r. Hen
derson is the American nominee; though
he was nominated by an assemblsge of
nine persons who assumed to be the
nonpsrtisaus of the ward, he ignores
that nomination and stands forth clean
and square as the American candidate.
lie is member of the board now, and
has rendered as effective service as the
influences in the board that arc smoth-
ering the schools would permit. The
Judge. accordingly, has the field TO him
self, in this campaign.
The Americans have thus deserved
success by the excellence Of the nom
nations which they have made. They
deserve TO elect their candidates be
cause the schools are in need Of the sort
Of service which these Americans can
render They deserve this representa-
tlou on the Board of Education because
now, though they are large majority
of the voters of the city, and pay far
more than their per capita proportion
Of the taxes for the schools, they have
no representation on the board, and
this taxation without representation
violates the first principles Of American
justice and civic righteousness.

Topiics Of the Day
TYPHOID STATISTICS.

Philadelphia Ledger.
Criminal waste and carelessness are
the chief items of Indictment often
made against America and Americans,
and it is unhappily too true that there
is ample evidence 70 be had to make
out prima facie case. The annual fire
waste in the United States is an exam
pie which would first come TO mind, hut
there is also food for serious thought Ia
some recent statistics of typhoid fever
in this and other countrips-fpures
which do no credit To The United States,
but which may be used as a telling ex-
hibit in support of the sort of thorough
ness and paternalism which character
ize many of the despised Nations of the
Old World
For instance, an examination of The
not too complete vital statistics of this
country will show that In the thirty
eight leading cities, during the period
from 1900 10 1904 the annual average
of deaths from typhoid fever was 34.S
for every 100000 inhabitants. When
this is contrasted with the following
table. giving the death rate from the
same disease in the principal coun-
tries of Europe, there does not seem
TO be much room for self satisfaction
or brag.

The contrast is still more dsmna-
tory when it is made between cities
of America and some of the individual
cities of Germany. Berlin has brought
the disease down TO an annual rate of
from three TO five per 100000 Of the
population, and Munich-which once
suffered an unenviable infamy as
pesthole of the scourge-has almost en-
tirely eliminated it from her record

THE UNLAWFUL REIGN.

The enormous anomalies of the local
| situation in Utah have become so IA
milisrized TO the public mind that No
new development, however extra.
| ordinary it would be elsewhere, seems
to startle either intellect or conscience
here.
On their side the Mormous have be.
come accustomed TO the acceptance of
a criminal leader as a prophet Of
God-the holy one Of earth who alone
is authorized TO speak the DEGREES of
omnipotence to the human race. On
/ their side the Gentiles have become ac-
customcd TO seeing the affairs of the
State, political and temporal, domi-
mated by an ecclesiast whose confes-
sion of illegalities would place him in
the penitentiary iu any other common
wealth of the Union.
For these reasons there was not a
ripple Of excitement IN Utah when 10.
seph +. Smith appeared before dis
trict court, offered plea of guilty
TO the charge of unlawful cohabita-
ton, when be was fined three hundred
dollars to compensate outraged law for
his diversion, and when he walked out
of court to resume his supreme au-
thority as the sanetified leader Of a
religious community and as the most
powerful citizen of this State and of
the whole intermountain region.
But while the people of Utah In
accept the situation with some degree
Of cquanlmity, there would be a
great lack of Intelligent consideration
if there were no reflection b. the
public mind here upon the sensa-
tions which will be produced in the
United States when the Nation is re-
minded again that powerful church
and sovereign State are ruled by A
man whose proudest boast is that he
defes the laws of God and man, and
who can select the court which shall
try him for his violation of the
earthly statute-who can determine in
advance the punishment which shall
be inflicted by judge, and who can
collect the amount of his fine out of
the toll OF three hundred thousand
dupes.
American citizens at large will not
derive an enhanced opinion of Utah
from the result of Joseph L. Smith S
"trialo for unlawful cohabitation.
The wonder which they expressed three
years ago. when Smith gave his horri-
flying testimony at Washington. will
be renewed. Every man from Utah
who goes East will be asked:
What is the matter with you people,
that yon submit supinely to things
which would cause an insurrection in
any other State?n
Whether for good or bad, an answer
has been offered TO them, however, by
this trial. Hereafter, when any
citizen of this State is put on his de-
fensc by the inquiry, "Why do YOU
submit 10 the rule Of lawbreakers -
he can reply: "The public officials in
