Mitchell has disrupted the miners union
and IL is going down to defeat and dis
aster as a result of his leadership" Do
Ian opposed a renewed contest with the
operators at the outset and met with
harsh treatment from the miners in con-
sequence. But 1t looks as though his
position was the sound one, and that
what he now says about the Mitchell
leadership may prove true. The latter
has receded from every point in his orig
inal position against the operators except
that of an increase OF wages, and this
question he has declined to refer to ar
bitration, as the operators have been
willing 10 do. His attack was Of so ex-
treme a character as to defeat itself, and
his retreat has been a great bungle.

"WISDoM'S VICTORY. "

Under this caption VIC find, in the
Era. the following from the pen of
President Joseph II, Smith which viii
be OF general interest:
There Is a marvellous power In self
control, such II strength as few people
realize. With an Individual. whether
u person shall be the victim or tho
victor of circumstances depends largely
upon himself. So 1t Is also with ma
tlon. n community, a city. We have
recently had an illustration of this, IN
a local way. without just cause, d
cotcrie OF eyll-inclined and disappolnt-
ed politicians have sought 10 obtain
political control OF salt Lake City ana
county, and the state Of Utah. by ap.
pealing to the prejudices OF men who,
for various personal reasons, are inter-
csted with them. or who are ignorant
Of the good intentions and honesty OF
the Latter-day Saints. They have
viciously abused innocent people that
they might the more readily, unoh-
served, do the wrongs they have decrled
in others. They have appealed to false
arguments, party perjudice, threats,
misconstuciions OF mems utterances,
aud evary other degenerate device, to
set neighbor against neighbor, party
against party, friend against friend, so
that, in the struggle and division which
they hoped would ensue, they might
lay their whitening hands upon the gov
eminent OF the people In city, and coun-
~ and state, With n view TO completely
ostracislng one large, industrious. law
abiding division OF the community, 10y
al to country and state and party, and
shutting them out entirely from every
advantage accruing to free citizens In
free land.
This is the condition which confront
cd the people In Salt Lake county on
the morning Of the 6th OF November.
IL Is greatly TO the honor ana credit OF
this community that they were blessed

PROTECT THE BIRDS,

Those are remarkable facts made
known by our educational correspond
cut from the state University. con-
corning the destruction Of tho wild
egret. or snowy heron OF Florida, for
the sake Of it's plumes. The bare re-
cital ot the conditions under which
these bird plumes are obtained consti-
tutes a pItlful and shocking story that
should AFFECT the moral sense OF all
sensible people and especially OF the
ladies who wear these plumes. We
suspect that the truth about the
slaughter OF the Wild birds Is not gen.
orally understood, and that compare

The pleasurable sense OF companions

ful and sensitive OF human natures
but our correspondent has struck
chord. which, n the general reputation
OF the American people In regard TO
"the almighty dollar Is at all in accord

one OF us. He shows that tho dis
appearance OF the birds is an enorm-
GUS financial loss. especially to the
great agricultural interests OF tho
country. As the birds disappear, the
harmful insects multiply In a sort OF
geometric progression: and twenty
years ago Prof. Riley estimated that
these insects destroyed annually IN tho
United States from 5000. 1900 to $780,
100000 worth OF farm produce. To-
day Il Is believed by some observers
that the annual loss from this cause
amounts to more than the entire MAIN
tenance Of public schools. army and

COLUMNS OF LIGHT IN THE SKY
BALTIMORE sun.

An explanation of a curious optical
phenomenon sometimes witnessed on
frosty nights. which Is called The pseu-
do aurora, Is offered by an official Of
the weather bureau. The phenomenon
takes the form Of beautiful columns Of
silver lights standing over electric arc
lamps and other bright lights and
sometimes appearing almost to reach
the zenith. II Is said that sometimes
the evening star has bright shaft be-
low as wen as above, while the rising
moon stands In broad column OF
light. These appearances are due TO
floating frost crystals, which keep their
rejecting faces horizontal. on exam
ination Il has been found that tho crys-
tails concerned in the exhibition were
thin, six sided plates Of Ice, never more
than one mlllmetre IN diameter, When
the wind blows these little plates are
upset and the columns OF light caused
by the reflection from their surface dis
appear.

1t is therefore, really, the Senate
that Is put to the test in this matter.
WIN that body dare to do what Is

one OF considerable Importance. IL
Mormon" can be denied his rights
as a citizen because of his faith, there
is 10 reason why agltators with an
abundance Of money and no con-
science should not succeed in depriy-
ing others of their rights on similar
grounds. 1t makes little difference
to The Church OF which senator
timoot is member, whether he Is
permitted TO retain his seat In the
Senate or not. The notion that
the Church Is in any man
nor involved IN that question, is
foolish. Senator Smoot was not
elected by the Church, and he docs not
represent the Church. lIo was regu.
larly elected by his party and he repre-.
sents the people Of Utah OF all parties
and crocds. But we hope righteousness
win prevail and that American princi-
Iles win be vindicated, because no 9TH
or policy is consistent With the mission
and calling OF the American nation.
Among the important measures thar
are expected TO receive attention Ia
proposed new treaty with Japan. The
Californians suggest that the japanese
government be asked to recognize the
right OF the United States to deal with
the matter OF immigration Of japanese
subjects under such restrictions as we
may deem best for our own interests.
Possibly this country may also ask for
an extension OF the privileges accord
ed American citizens In Japan. which
are said to be rather limited, az COM
pared 10 the privileges enjoyed by the
japanese here.
