A POETS LICENSE.

Rioting I'm poetic license. Bishop Or
son T. Whitney of the Mormon church
makes a plea for the elimination of
antagonism between Mormons and Cen
tiles here (meaning of course that .he
Gentiles shall let the Mormon leaders
have their unlawful way) and declares
that il the two classes only knew each
other better, they would love each other
more.
So far as Gentiles could make frater-
nifty and love In the community. they
did so when they abdlcated their su-
preme power In the Territory of Utah,
upon the solemn covenant of the Nor
mon leaders that they would cease TO
dlsobey the law and would refrain from
further antagonism to the sentimental
ties of the Nation. During a period OF
years every sporadic outbreak Of old
offenses was overlooked by Gentiles in
the belief that the great tide of Mormon
affairs was flowing in the right direc-
ticn. When one or two cases Of polyga-
my appeared. and responsibility was
disclalmed. and promise that there
should be no recurrence was made by
the parties chiefly interested, Gentiles
accepted the assurance. When there
was an outbreak of the old prophetic
disposition to rule arbitrarily In secular
affairs, and II was explained as merely
the enthusiasm OF old men who forgot
for the moment that the world had
moved Gentiles permitted Ii to pass
without conflict. 1t was only when Cen
tiles had learned TO know the Mormon
leader chiefs of today better; 1t was
only when absolutism was re-estab-
lshed under the present hierarchy; II
was only when polygamy became ram
pant; It was only when the old treason
able teaching was renewed by precept
and example; 1t was only when the
shame of Utah was exposed to all the
world by the infamies. self-confessed,
by Joseph +. Smith and his colleagues;
that the Gentlles of Utah renewed on
their part, the warfare which they had
hoped was ended forever.
Bishop Whitney wants Gentiles to be-
come better acquainted with Mormons
80 that they Will love them more. Well.
in fulflllment OF the Bishops desire
why not have Joseph F. Smith and
Charles w. Penrose, j M. Tanner and
Mr. Buckholt of Provo and a few others
OF that ilk make social calls upon self
respecting Gentiles and tender their ac-
quaintance? II they Will do this they
Will learn that Gentiles already know
enough and the more they know the
less likely they are to love Better leave
1t as 1t Is, Bishop. until the Gentiles
know less about the Mormon leaders or
until the Mormon leaders conclude TO so
| live that knowing their lives, the cit-
zens of the United States shall not look
upon them as reckless defiers Of God

IMPOSED UPON.

As a sample of non comprehension
OF an important current event, we COM
mend the following editorial paragraph
from the Mount Pleasant (Utah) Pyra-
mid:
The generally reason for the
abandonment OF the plan to erect a
sugar factory IN Sanpete county this
season was that OF the probability of u
would admit sugar TO the United States
free OF duty from the Philippines. and
thus lessen the demand for and decrease
the price the home article. Now. the
bill which was TO have brought about this
alleged undesirable result has been de-
featcd by the United States Senate, what
is there TO hinder the factory being erect
ed this year. then, In the face of thnt2 If
the sugar company people fail TO move
now that fear of free sugar has been re-
moved. there will be room for the suSpi-
clou that has existed in the minds Of
many people for some tmo that there
has been some double dealing done by
somebody in some way.
We are sorry to see our Sanpete coun-
ty contemporary accept so readily the
sugar trust misrepresentation upon this
point The definite abandonment OF the
project to build "A sugar factory in San
pete county this season was arrived at
without reference TO the Philippine tar
iff, and the reason for 1t was that the
sugar trust magnates I'm the East
wouldn't allow their local connection
here to build 1t This negative was con-
veyed last fall, before there was an par
ticular talk about the Philippine tariff,
which had nothing to do with the mat
ter anyway. 1t Is not the tariff that
stands In the way, but corporate
monopoly and greed.
The sugar trust, In afflliation with the
local sugar factories In Utah. has a

for their beets. the proportionate price
to the sugar price that was paid before
this monopolistic alliance was formed.
1t dictates the price at which sugar
shall be sold. and whenever there is an

and Idaho, (the area comprising the
States OF Idaho, Montana, Utah and
Wyoming, as we gather from Manager
T r. Cutters letter to The Tribune. }
this excess is sent to Chicago, where 1t
is sold. after freights are paid, at one
third off from the rate charged here. To
construct another factory within this
area, the trust reckons, would but add
to the excess that would have TO be
shipped East ct can't be shipped West
| for then 1t would encroach upon Spreck-
elss reseryatlon,) and sold at the lower
price.
1t Is quite true that the sugar trust
has been very adroit in urging that the
! lowering OF the tariff rates on sugar
would cripple or destroy the beet
/ sugar industry. But 1t Is the shallowest
| OF humbugs. The same plea was made
| as to the reduction Of the tariff on Gu

substance to tho argument, for the

GROWING UTAH.

More men and money are coming TO
Utan now TO engage In her activities
and win reward than ever before in the
history of the commonwealth.
They are attracted by the marycis Of
Utah's richness. by the assurance that
good investments will bring good re-
ward. that I'm no other place ON the
earth can energy good judgment and
capital win more in return than here.
Additionally these men recognize that
the social conditions so long a bar to
the growth of this population, are In
process Of disintegration. Previous TO
the fight made by the American party
i'm this state, men looked upon Utah as
they might upon the hypcrborean re-
glons to which the individual man
might go In search of adventure and
wealth, but to which he could not con-
template the taking OF his family. 1t
is true that many Gentiles were here.
and It is also true that under the old
conditions many GentIles were moving
away But when American citizenship
asserted itself and said Every place
under the flag should be fit abode for
the American home, and we viii labor
10 pFit Sinrr until
We establish in Utah the same rights,
the same proprieties which exist and
are observed everywhere else In the
United States" not only was the out
going tide OF Gentle emigration from
Utah checked but the best and only
effective invitation was extended for
Gentle family immigration into Utah.
1t is folly to say that the fight keeps
people away. Before the fight people
were not coming here In any large
numbers: and before the fight many
families who would have been great
aids to material social and ethical pro-
gress took their household gods and
went to other States where there was
not constantly Haunted before the eyes
OF wives and mothers and before the
gaze of children the offenses of n po-
lygamous hierarchy. Since the fight
began there has been a gradual lessen
ing of that emigration, for men and
women too can see the early end OF the
controversy so long as the American
.party remains resolute. earnest, ag-
gressive in its battle for American con-
dltIonS. Ard the battle is bringing 10
the State thousands Of the best type OF
citizenship and family.

WAR ON TRAILING SKIRTS.

A pretty war OF skirts is being fought
out In small German town, where
League Against the Trailing Skirt"
has been formed with the support OF
the Mayor. who has even gone so far
as to regulate in an edict the length of
the offending garment. 1t Is this last
piece of municipal tyranny that has
aroused the long-sufferlng woman OF
fashion. and she has formed a counter
Union CT the Liberty OF Dress" So
far 1t seems that the league Is In the
ascendant, for 1t has just dined the
Mayor triumphantly. while the union,
scorning such sastronomlc methods Of
bribery. Is trusting to greater elegance
of appearance for the propitiation of
the masculine authorities.
