WHAT IS THE MATTER :

The nomination of William Spry for
the Office OF United States Marshal for
Utah seems to have occasioned much
comment. That Is not surprising just
now, while there Is 50 much agitation
In religious circles over the case of
Senator Reed Smoot, reaching to the
upper house Of Congress because that
Is the center to which all the streams
OF prejudice flow against the Utah Sem
ator. While this furorc Is kept up,
although it RACES in very limited
spheres, for the great masses of the
people and the business men OF the
country take little or no notice of IT.
anything relating to Utah affairs is
likely TO be made as much of as pcSsi-

But why should there be any hub

tenaciously in later years and like

that of irregularity in attendance

are the formative period when sue

faculty of the public schools aim to
cultivate habit of regularity in
