cratic state and county tickets. The
voter who will really take the time to
give this most important subject care
full consideration will, we are sure. come
TO this way of thinking. A Republican
victory means a continuance in power
of Smoot and Smootism; it means
long, bitter, heart-breaking fight, for
this people will not always tolerate
Smoot dictation.
AM American victory means the
| transfer of control from one machine to
another to another machine equally as
intolerable. equally as intolerant, equal
Iy as abhorrent to all that is honest in
politics. all that tends to preserve peace
at home and to establish and maintain
fair reputation abroad. 1t means
continuance of strife and agitation and
war, and no man can say when or
where the end will come.
victory for the Democrats will be
guarantee of peace, of happiness. Of
prosperity. 1t will mean an end of class
hatred and class prejudice. And what
ever the result of the election the Dem
ocrats of this county and this state
have every reason to be proud of their
campaign. In the face of the bitterest
opposition, with tremendous forces ar
rayed against them and with every
| temptation to descend to the personal
abuse in which their opponents have so
freely INDUCED, they have made a
| clean, fearless, honest fight.
Their hands bear no marks Of filth.
their cOnsciences are clear, their rest
at night is peaceful and sweet. The
Herald has never been as proud of the
Democrats of Utah, Mormon and Cen
tile alike, as it has been in this cam
paign. If ever men and women de-
served to win, they deserve to win
and they will win.

NEARING THE END.

For at least one thing the good peo-
pie of Utah. the honest, decent people
who disapprove of mud-thrOwing. of
downright lying. Of petty political tricks
of every character, have reason TO be
thankful this morning. The campaign
of 1906 has only six more days to run
Some people would except Sunday. but
the politicians don't. They keep right
on Matching out their tricks that are
VAIN on that, day as web as on all. the
others.
The Herald hopes and believes the
Democrats will win their fight We
hope they will win because they de-
serve to win: we believe they will win
because we cannot understand how the
people of Utah can again be fooled by
the Sm0ot machine and it's methods;
because we cannot believe the voters of
salt Lake county viii entrust the con-
troll of their affairs to the americans"
in the face of the fearful record of mis-
management made by that party in its
conduct of city affairs.
The offices are. after all. of very little
importance in this campaign. If it were
possible to smash the Smoot machine
and.itne American machine in any
other way than by voting the Demo-
cratic ticket, The Herald would not
hesitate about pointing out that way.
Progress. purity in politics, good man
agement of public affairs is rather to be
desired than mere party advantage.
And peace and good fellowship be-
tweenzfalI classes of citizens are abso-
luteiyiEnecessary to progress and hap

For the life of us we cannot see how
there can be any argument on the
postulate that the only rational way to
peace lies in the election of the Demo-

PLENTY OF POLITICS.

Throughout the length and breadth of
the United States the people are talk
ing politics today, and will keep on
talking politics until the votes are cast
and counted next Tuesday There are
many fights of purely local interest and
these, such as the Hearst campaign in
New York, the Smoot campaign in
Utah, the senatorial primary in Ken
lucky, the organized labor fights in
various states, are detracting attention
from the general congressional battle.
One sees comparatively little about
the prospects of the Democrats for OBJ
tanning control of the national house of
representatives or Of the Republicans
retaining it. Nevertheless, enough has
been disclosed to show that the Repub-
licans are very much alarmed. They
have not been able, as they hoped. to
make President Roosevelt an issue in
the campaign. The early plan was to
urge upon the people of the country the
necessity of holding up the hands of the
president.
But the Democratic orators very
quickly shattered that proposition to
bits. In the arid and semi-arid states
it has been disclosed that if the presi-
! dent had relied upon the Republicans
in congress the irrigation bill could not
have become a law. 1t has been shown.
and shown conclusively, for the rec
Ords are always at hand, that the DEM

except when some outside speaker, such
as Lfttlefield of Maine, the bitter and
uncompromising foe of union labor. has
been sent to a foreign field. And they
are losing on the local campaigns.
There is every indication, indeed, that
the Democrats will control the next

THE GRAVEYARD WHISTLE.

In 1904, Congressman Howell got
9451 votes in Salt Lake city; in 1905. a
year later, Mr.. Lynch got 1870 votes.
a loss of 4,4S7 votes in twelve months,
and yet the lightning caIculators of the
Smoot machine would have us believe
that the Republican county ticket
has some show of winning this fall.
Apparently, they think the ordinary
voter can be fiim-fammed with the
same game every year, and the way
they are figuring would make an add
ing machine go ssea-sick.
q By the ordinary rules of calcula-
Ation, the Republican party lost Ala per
cent of its votes between the time
Howens ran and the time Lynch car
ried one voting district in the city. A
Pickwick or a Mulberry Sellers might
get some. comfort out of that sort of a
showing, just as Pussy Jimmy" pre-
tends to think it portends success for
his party this fall; but through Fussy's
smile there are signs of tears and his
whistle has all the marks of the
graveyard brand.
Instead of carrying Salt Lake county
and the whole state, the Republicans
. will be lucky if they save anything al
JAIL from the wreck. Howell got about
$4,000 majority in 1904, when ne had
Roosevelt for paCemaker and had nc
record of his own for toe-weights. Now
he has no Roosevelt and he has a rec
ord that would anchor a battleship il
q storm. Since his election the "Ameri-
cans have taken over thousands OF
Republicans who voted for him ther
and will vote for Weir now. If Howell
isn't beaten he'll get a scare that ought
TO cure him of the delusion that he has
any. personal popularity. And if the
cold feet in his audiences give any sigT
OF the coming vote, he'll be a promi-
nent member of the down and outs be-
fore another week is over.
Altogether the outlook for the Dem
Ocrats is good enough. There is still
need for hard work. The Americans
will cut a large figure, particularly il
Salt Lake county, but with a solid
Democratic vote assured, the democrat
lied Republicans can't muster enough
strength this time to give the county
to the Americans as they gave away
the city last fall
