Platform Adopted by Americans"

The American party. born in the pro-
test against the brutal and shameless as
sumption that the consciences of the men
and women of Utah were dead, and the
law a thing to be spurned and scorned. is
proud of the grand support it has received
at the hands OF the free electors of this
commonwealth. 1t glories in the evidences
that conscience is not dead here, and that
public sentiment is awakening TO the
need Of enforcing the law not only be-
ca use il is the law but because the only
right foundation for government based
upon justice and equal rights is in the
supremacy of the law. in the willing
obedience to IL OF all good citizens, and
the impartial enforcement OF it's penal
ties against all who break It's mandates.
The American party stands for the
emancipation of all from the lawless ty-
ranny of priestcraft; it rejects as spurious
any revelation or any asserted divine
right of any class to defy the law, and
declares that all ramparts built TO pro-
tect aw-breakers must be broken down.
It demands that the voters must be freed
from any domination sought to be ex-
ercised over them in their political action
or affiliatiOn by ecclesiaStS, holding that
any claim of such domination by man
over man is an insult to republican insti-
tutionS and a Sacrilege before Almighty
Coo The American party demands that
the constitutional separation of church
and state be made something more than
mere words; that it shall be made In good
faith and shall be put into effect radical
ly. practically and effectively, and for all
time.
In view OF the bad faith so conspicuously
shown by the heads of the dominant
church in making their pledges Of sub
mission to the law and then defying the
law. we see no real cure for the perverse
inclination toward polygamy manifested
by the chief Mormon leaders and their
evident nursing OF that illegal system,
other than an amendment to the federal
constitution giving national jurisdiction
over that offense. We. therefore, favor
such amendment.
We point with admiration to the great
record OF public service performed and
being performed by the American party
administration in Salt Lake. AT no former
period was the city ever so prosperous;
never We're there so MANY public and pri-

Department Rules.

Chronicle states today that the recent
action of the postoffice department in
filming two railway mail clerks here for
public criticism of a railway, is result
ing in an organized effort among the
clerks 70 secure the right of freedom
of speech. At present the department
insists that all criticisms affecting the
service or the railways carrying the
mails should go through the depart

because Of letters written 20 news

from Spokane to Los Angeles are shap-
ing plans to secure congressional action
which will abolish such rules. The
trouble arose because of criticisms Of
the condition Of the Great Northern
track near Chain Lake, where fatal
wreck occurred in July.

INSANITY AMONG
THE IRISH RACE
Startling Figures Given in the
Report of the inspectors
of LunaCy.
EFFECT OF IMMIGRATION
INCREASE IN THE NUMBER OF
PATIENTS.

London, Sept PA special report of
the inspectors of lunacy in Ireland was
issued last night in the form of blue
book. 1t shows that the proportion of
insane to the total population in 1901
was 56.2 per 1000, compared with 1872 in
1851. The number of patients in public
asylums rose from 1867 in 1880. to 49,
1872 in 1896 and 1904 in 1903. There was
a proportionate increase in the inmates
Of private asylums. The figures do not
include the insane outside of asylums.
which is believed to be considerable.
The inspectors attribute the increase
partly TO the reduction of population by
emigration Of the mentally fit and par
TALLY to the return Of emigrants suffer
ing from mental breakdowns. Avail
able statistics do not permit of definite
information as to whether there has
been an increase in insanity, but the
inspectors believe that but for the i'm
migration of the strong and healthy the
ratio would have been very small. They
declare, however, that the Irish are
peculiarly prone to mental break
DOWNS" directing attention to America,
where, they say, the proportion of in
sane among the Irish is greatly I'm eX-
cess of other nationalities. In Connec-
ticut ii is more than double.
In conclusion, the report says that
the question Of the influence of immi-
grafton on the development of insanity
has not hitherto received the attention
1t deserves. adding:
There is every reason to fear that
large number of our people crossing
the Atlantic in search of fortune in a
climate and environment so different
to that to which they are accustomed
leave behind them the good humOr and
peace of mind SO happily characteristic
of our peasantry."

waite improvements being made; never was
industry so fully employed nor so well
paid. This is in bright contrast with
the futile and ineffective administration
which preceded the present American con-
troll, while the open, fair, clean methods
pursued are in marked contrast to the
scandals which pervade the administra-
tons Of both the church parties whether
in municipal, county or state affairs. So
shameful ard humiliating are the expos
ures made of these church party derelic-
sorrow and disgust at the lack of con-
science shown and the failure of the ma
chine officials to respond to even the
most elementary standard Of efficiency
and public duty.
There is neither a decent sentiment nor
ordinary rule of accountability to the peo-
pie under the ecclesiastical domination
which exists. These authors OF the preva-
lent contempt for law and for public Opin-
ion are a rule unto themselves, and they
require others to conform to their way
of thinking. The American party means
to change all this. 1t will make one rule
for ALL allowing no special class OF ty-
rants, no special class exempt from the
requirements of the law. 1t will lift all
Utah up to the level of the principles
of the great American Declaration of In
dependence, giving TO every voter politi-
cal and commercial liberty, and clothing
every one in the sacred privileges that
pertain TO American sovereignty. We de-
plore the fact that a great political party
declined to pass a resolution that de-
! nounced ecclesiastical domination In poll
tics, and declare that the doctrine of that
resolution is the chief need Of the state.
Our cause is the cause Of American
right. 1t can never be beaten; It's tri-
umph Is as sure as the perpetuity of the
republic. On these principles we rest our
cause before the people, confident of the
result. We see the citadel or exclusive
ness and church control over civil affairs
and of the political consciences OF men
weakening every day. All that is needed
is for those who are of our mind and
VINO are coming TO the same convictlons
as we hold to vote with us, and the
victory will not be postponed even for a
year. And we call for local organizations
of the American party In every county
of the state.
