Heart
Weakness

The action of the heart de-
ponds upon the heart nerves
and muscles. When from any
cause they become weak or ex-
hausted, and fail to furnish
sufficient power, the heart flut-
tiers, palpitates, skips beats;
and in its effort to keep up its
work, causes pain and distress,
such as smothering spells,
short breath, fainting, pain
around heart, arm and shout
ders. The circulation is inn
peded, and the entire system
suffers from lack of nouTish-
ment.

a heart strong and vigorous by

muscles.

here, men who are drawn away from it
will lose the binding force of that
reservation and will never return TO
| it. For this reason he thinks that the
| hope OF Democratic strength in the fu-
tlre lies in a public pronouncement of
Democratic withdrawal from present
| political activities as an organization.
| There is much in the idea; it is sen.
sible and patriotic. Sociologists recog.
nizc the utility of two great opposing
| political parties In State and Nation,
Even If We could have normal condi
| tions here in other respects it would be
very disadyantageous to Utah if there
were but one political party. Republl-
cans not blinded by partisan zeal and
prejudice believe that Democracy is
useful as a restraining as a modifying,
| even at times, as an cnlivening force;
and in their own love for the State
| superior to pnrtisanship-th would
! be glad to have a great party In oppo-
| stion TO their own which should force
| Republicanism 10 perform it's full duty
| to the commonwealth, even If it had

| TO reach that end.
The only question for Democrats to
decide in Utah is whether they will
maintain a pretense here for the benefit
Of the Smootite Republican party or
abandon that prcteusc with a solemn
protest to the Nation that there is no
such thing as genuine politics in this
priestridden commonwealth.
An earnest Democrat, engaged as a
publicist in city north of Salt Lake,
gives n good illustration Of the case
in a brief note to The Tribune. He
makes reminder that the Democratic
party is only cold storage warehouse.
wherein the church keeps its votes: and
he proves. the fact by the statistics
from the third precinct of Salt Lake
City, where Mormons predominate by
a large majority, and where Howell
can obtain almost the identical major
ity Mormon vote when he is running
as a church candidate that is cast for
Morris when that gentleman is ap-
pointed TO receive church help. The
"soIid third wns normally as strong"
" Democratic as ii was strongly Nor
mon; but when the ecclesiasts direct
that it become Republican, they take
q thousand Democratic votes out Of cold
storage and turn them to the Repub-
lican ticket,
The whole thing is such an infamy,
is so conducive to community hypoc-
risy, that the Democratic party-in the
interest of human incerity-should dis
solve and leave its people free. The
church will not let them vote their po
liticsl convictions: the Democracy
might as we'll turn them loose TO vote
their religious convictions.

AN UNCONSTITUTIONAL PLOT.

The Smoot mouthpiece in this city
comes out hat-footed in favor of po
| lice commission, appointed by the Gov
ernor, to take charge Of the police de
partment of this city. In this it favors
the ignoring or breaking down Of the
State Constitution, which (section %
| artivle yi.,) provides;
The Legislature shall not delegate to any
special commission, private corporation or
ASSOCIATION, any power TO make; supervise
or interfere with any municipal improse.
held in trust OF otherwise. TO levy tsxos' to
| seloct a capitol site OR TO PERFORM ANY
MUNICIPAL FUNCTIONS.
That would settle it with any law
abiding citizen. Nothing Of the kind
proposed can be done under the Consti-
tuition. But the sort Of mind that could
urge commission in the face of such n
prohibition can quote as a precedent
Tim Campbell S fervent outburst TO
President Cleveland, "Ah, Mr.. Presi-
dente what the Constitution between
friends7' And they might add, cor
enemies, " For, it is plain case that
the schemers who propose this radical
and unconstitutional invasion of the
municipal functions of this city, are
enemies of Salt Lake
And what is the excuse for it all9
Why this camorous and insistent outcry
that something must be done to the po-
lice department Of this city3 1t is all
because the political schemers failed TO
make good their charge against Chief
Sheets that he was blameworthy in the
matter of the alleged card robbery of
the Whirter brothers. But the po
litical schemers had it all their own way
in bringing and prosecuting the charge
against Sheets. They took their own
time, they presented their case in their
own way, before Judge of their own
choosing, and made so complete a fail
ure to show anything wrong done by
the Chief, that the case was dismissed
on motion, as presented. There was in
fact, not the least substance to ii,
In its ultimate phase, therefore, the
outcry against Chief Sheets is because
those who plotted against him failed
TO make good their charge, He is inno-
cent, therefore they hate him; he has
done nothing wrong, therefore ne is
fair target for their abuse; he has root
ed out the robbing gambling games,
driven ont the bunko steerers and hold
ups, therefore some way must be found
to oust him from office, The outcry
against Chief Sheets is the most scan
dalous piece of unJustifiable malignity
and continual iteration of charges that
have failed, that has ever been seen i'll

DEMOCRATIC DISSOLUTION.

One of the country Democratic papers
in the southern part Of Utah, being ad.
vised by certain party leaders not to
give up the ship, replies with this SEN
tence: There amt no Democratic
ship TO give up
That is the feeling among Democrats
| everywhere in this State. 1t is not so
much with them a question whether
the party should disband or not; for
they regard the dissolution as having
been already effected. The only mat
ter of discussion is whether there shall
be formal pronouncement of the funeral
sermon-whether the party shall con
tinue the shallow pretension of being a
living force in political affairs in this
commonwealth or whether it shall de
clare that, under existing circumstan.
ces, it is injurious to party name as
we'll as valuelcss to the State for the
Democratic organization TO continue its
campaign, to hold nominating conven-
tions, To incur expenses and to encoun-
ter humiliating defeat.

and who, under happier auspices, would
adhere to Democracy in Utah as he
adheres to Democracy in National af-
fairs. expresses TO The Tribune his opin-
ion that the party 8 own self.respect
demands that it shall abandon the af,
fectation of political controversy as m
organized body. He says that Utah is
cursed now by the preteuses which con-
stitute in large degree the basis of
community life, and he is too proud of
his Democracy to have his party con-
tinue longer rs an aid to the evil. For

the facts which have produced that

real Democrats who vote the American

F. Smith made his argument against the
manifesto in order that he might not

SHOULD HAVE BETTER PAY

SHOULD HAVE BETTER PAY.
RichGeld Reaper,
In Colorado the sugar beet growers
receive an average of $5 per ton net
for beets delivered on board the cars
In that State the beet raisers are paid
according to the amount of saccharine
in the beets, IL strikes us that that is
the only right way to pay for sugar
beets. It would be an inducement not
only for tonnage but for quality also.
If beets are worth $3.50 to the Utah
factories carrying about ID per cent
saccharine, beets going Is and 16 per
cent should be worth more. and the
grower should receive the benefit Of
it.
The beet growers of Utah should get
more for their beets anyhow. The
sugar trust could pay s6 per ton and
make big profits from the beet crops.
The trust is in absolute control of fine
sugar market and will see that the
price, of sugar is kept up to fortune
breeding prices, The men who make
kings a possibility should receive a
better recompense,

THAT INTERPRETATION.

When accepted the manifesto, issued by
| President Wilford Woodruff. / did not un'
| derstand that would be expected To aban-
| don and discard my wives.
So said Joseph F. Smith in his state
ment before Judge Ritchie in pleading
for n mild sentence upon himself upon
the modified charge of unlawful cohab"
itation, which represented the accusa-
tion of the law against his unlimited
and unmodi6ed polygamous living.
Joseph T. Smith persists in using the
word "descrted when he speaks of
his voluntarily assumed obligation to
| live according TO the law forbidding his
| continuous marital association with his
plural wives. Joseph F. Smith had de-
serted, in the absolute sense, several
of his wives during the period before
amnesty was granted, He had been
scurrying around in different parts of
the world to avoid term in the peni-
tentisry of Utah. But when amnesty
was granted it was only required of him
that he should not cohabit with his plu
raj wives as conlugal consorts. 1t WAS
not assumed, nor has it ever been as
sumed, that he would need to desert
port from them. He could have re-
mained their friend, their preceptor.
their prophet; he could have visited
them TO consult concerning the care of
their and his children: he could have
had all the association with them which
he desired, except that of occupying
their beds. This alone was forbidden.
And this is the one thing which he in
sists upon, and to deny TO himself this
he assumes would be deserting his plu-
raj wives.
But passing all that, which is not
pleasant subject to discuss, and coming
to the point which Smith intended to
make; District Attorney Loofbourow, in
his address to the court demanding
Jail sentence, placed the matter in such
clear light that every one in Utah
should read and remember. Mr., Loot
borrow performed great public ser
vice. He puncturcd Mr.. Smith g silly,
snap-bubble utterances, and his plea
vanished from all proper consideration
by the court.
Joseph F. Smith s claim is that he
did not interpret the Woodruff mani
festo to mean that he should cease TO
live with his plural wives. Joseph F.
Smith deliberately falsfies. He was
adverse to an acceptance Of the mani
festo when il WAS first presented to him,
because, as construed to him, 1T would
mean that from the day Of its promul
CATION he must live with only one wo-
man in this world, no matter how many
ho might expect TO have in the here
after. 1T was on this very point that
ne made his contention. But it was
also on this very point that there was
insIstcnce. The manifesto would have
been valueless as an appeal TO the peo.
pie of the United States for mercy if it |
had not comprised an abandonment of |
polygamous living Joseph f. Smith |
knew that fact, and finally he accepted |
the manifesto with that Interpretation |
accepted it fully and AT an early date |
accepted the amnesty which President |
Harrison granted, after placing that |
same Interpretation upon the Woodruff |
revelation iuhibiting poIygamy and |
polygamous living. There are plenty of

fast in southern Utah as in any part
of the globe. There are hundreds of
openings and opportunities for making
money for the man who has little

But the enemies Of the public
schools, the priestly rulers who care
for the public schools only for what
they can get out of them. showed their
| real sentiments with regard TO the free
public schools, through an editorial in

suggestions for a campaign picture
in which II spoke contemptuously of

to the appeal to save them it would
have "a phalanx Of patriots and pa
triotesses, emerging from Commercial
street. Franklin avenue. and the sa-
looms of the town, all bearing ban
ners, ~ etc.
That shows the scandalous and con.
temptuous opinion which the church
organ entertains of the schools. and
voices the idea of the ecclesiasts about
them; the friends Of the schools. in
their opinion, are the denizens of Com
mercial street and Franklin avenue;
and The citizens who object to the
church graft and domination in the
schools are to be classed with those
denizens. 1t is a filthy insult to every
decent person in the city, scandalous
and vile imputation upon the public
schools, and An utterly disreputable
ebullition of priestly hatred and malev-
olence. 1t is an insolent attempt by
the criminal and felonious church
leaders to put themselves on a pinnacle
where they can fling insults AT their

ing superior TO the dwellers in the To-
calities named, which they are not en-

And all the time, the developments
