SHOULD BE A SQUARE DEAL.

The contention between the city and
the county on the water rates ought to
be easily settled. Tho vague and fool
ish claim that the city is obliged to
furnish water to the county for the
tail and the county side of the Joint
building in consideration of the use by
the city of the county's election booths
one day in two years, Is hardly worth
any serious consideration. That use is
not equivalent for the water supply
The fair thing would be for the city to
pay a reasonable price for the use of
the election booths one day biennially.
and charge the county for the water 1t
uses. To get at the proper charge for
the water. It would probably be neces-
sary to put in meters at the jail and
at the countys side of the joint build
ing. To get at the proper charge for
the election booths, II would be easy
to reckon the. value of use on the cost
OF them; if the county wanted too much
the city could buy booths for itself.
The whole matter is but an ordinary
business transaction. The city should
get a fair prico for It's water supply 10
the county, and the county should ge,
fair price for the use Of its booths.
When the proper figure In each case is
arrived at, the whole matter is set
tied And It is question on which the
parties in interest are largely the same
taxpayers on both sides.
The opposition have been much exer-
cised about the state OF the municipal
finances; they think that the present
city administration is not collecting
enough money 10 pay Its bills. They
should be glad. therefore, TO see this
move on the city's part TO see that II
gets pay for its property. Those who
have been complaining the most bit
terly about what they claim Is a short
age In the city's revenues are, however,
singularly enough. among the ones who
make the bltterest objections TO this
proposed collection: Which shows At
once their Inconsistency and their IN
sincerity. II they actually think that
the city is short OF money. they should
be glad to see this move to collect from
the county what II owes for water, and
should back the city. instead OF back

IN SHOOTS FAVOR.

Absolutely the most interesting, as
well as the most interested, comment
that has been made upon the Smoot
case comes through the medium OF the
official organ of the church from Con-
gresham Howell. That eminent mem
Der of the National House Of Repre-
sentatives has just returned from
Washington; his arrival at home hav-
Ing been fortuitously timed-either by
calculation or merely happy inadvert-
ence-after the two Senators had given
out the general views which it was mere
ly necessary for him to approve. Con-
gressman Howell. however, finds lit
tie original ground for himself in talk
ing about the apostle, and advises the
people that in the House OF Represen-
tatives the crusade against the Utah
Senator" was regarded as "persecu-
ton" Mr.. Howell says: "If the House
had been handling the case 1t would
have been settled long ago IN favor OF
the Senator"
Remembering the manner in which the
same House OF Representatives settled
the Roberts caSe-eVen going so far as
to "eXpel" him before he was "ad-
mitted." Hon. Joseph Howell gives US
an illustration of how a grain Of faith
no bigger than a mustard seed can
move a mountain-in your mind
Somehow or other il may be recalled
that along about the time the House
was indulging in what Congressman
Littlefield called the unconstitutional
method" of settling the Roberts case
not in favor of Roberts-it was told
with much emphasis by friends of the
distinguished Democratic president OF
the seventies, that III his case had been
tried before the Senate tho Constitution
would have been observed and the mat
ter would have been settled righteously
In his favor
What n pity il is that these two men
were not elected each TO the others
place: so that the settlement might
have been in his favor-promptly and

THEIR Own BATTLE.

The organization OF the Young Mems
American League of Utah is a recogni-
ton, by the most important generation
of citizenship, OF a work which mas
been undertaken and is being performed
in their behalf largely by men and
women older than themselves.
II the calamitous situation in Utah
the old and the people of middle age
and would have terminated in fact and
in its effects with the passing away of
the present mature generations. the
struggle against the power of the
hierarchy might have been unneces-
sary But the perpetuation of ille-
galities and tyrannies would have pro-
duced a situation as unbearable to the
young people who, In turn, will be car
rying responsibilities fifteen or twenty
years hence as 1t would have been diff
ficult for them to deal with. And so
the contest has been undertaken by
men and women who, except for g. be-
lief that their work was necessary for
the coming generations, would have
been glad TO remain off the field of
battle. In large degree, If not univer-
sally. the mature men and women who
stand in the forefront now will not be

UNCLE JOE UNANIMOUS.

An Illinois Republican is telling the
Washington Post that Hon. Joseph G,
Cannon, Speaker OF the House of Rep
resentatives, will probably have a
walk-oVer for reelection from his
Illinois district. 1t is understood that
the Democrats will not nominate In op-
position to popular Uncle Joe"
Such an event as the one predicted Is
unusual in politics, and yet is only n
fair recognition of the non-partisan
pride which the district and the State
may we'll feel In a man whose honesty,
whose courage, whose splendid common
sense, and whose statesmanship have
been at the service of the country for
so many years. Joseph G. Cannon has
served in sixteen Congresses OF the
United States, and with such con-
spicuous devotion to the public well
fare that not only Illinois, but all the
country appreciates his worth. In 1904
he received In his district, the eight
-eenth, nearly 81 900 votes, or almost
twice as many as the total votes which
were cast for the Democratic, Prohibit
ZIONIST and Socialist candidates for
Congress who were In opposition to
him.
Honest Joseph G. Cannon deserves
the recognition OF a unanimous re-elec-
ton, but the compliment would not be
as much to him as TO the district which
would thus honor Itself.
We rather think that Uncle Joe
would prefer this compliment from and
to his immediate neighbors, coupled
with the power OF the Speakership
for a few more terms, than to have
a nomination to the Presidency. FIX
cept for the titular distinction and the
name in history, the Speakership Is as
attractive in its opportunities for use
full service and the exercise OF au
thority as the Office OF chief executive.
Uncle Joe knows all thie, and the
eighteenth district OF Illinois has power
10 continue him in as big station as
that occupied by Theodore Roosevelt
