WHY NOT BE GAME?

Once upon a time, within the mem
DRY Of men who are now alive-and
kicking nightly well-known citizen
OF Utah was elected to the United
States senate. It has been so long
since q Democrat was elected to the
senate from Utah that it seems hardly
necessary to say that the well-known
citizen was d Republican. At that
time, as now. and for many weary
years, the national administration was
Republican in politics. Consequently
all the federal officeholders in Utah
were Republicans.
The new-made senator began, early
in his then triumphant career, to look
around for opportunities to reward his
friends. He found the revenue col
lector's Office occupied by an orthodox
Republican who had made a good rec
ord. That collector went out, and into
his place went a man recommended by
the senator. The United States dis
trict attorney had likewise made a
frst-class record, but he was so unfor-
tunate as not to be friend of the new

for one of the senator's Heutenants.
Is it necessary to go down the line?
Out went the United States marshal,
the surveyor general, the postmaster
at Ogden; out went anybody and
everybody the senator could reach, no
matter how good a Republican he hap
pened to be. And 10! the newspaper
owned by the senator pointed out that
through his "untiring efforts" Utah
was reaping rich rewards. Nobody
was ever quite able to figure out where
Utah got in on the division, but the
senator's newspaper said so. and il
must nave been so. And, certainly the
gentlemen who were rewarded fol
their earnest struggles to elect the
senator felt that he was, indeed, the
greatest statesman that ever repre-
sented Utah in congress.
Now come we TO more recent history
Time passed and with it passed tn,
senator. The ''untiring efforts" o
those ne had placed in Office could no
hold him in ONCE, though he was ;
and coed man. Another senate
was elected. This otte- senator ais
mad friends to reward. He rewarded
them at the expense of the friends o
the only really great senator. Gleame'

CONGRESSMAN JONES.

Chicago Record-Herald)
When Jones left Badgers Corners he was
racked by doubt and fear,
And a weight was on his shoulders as
he heard his neighbors cheer;
He was going where great statesmen with
majestic brows would stand,
In the halls Of marble, wisely making
statutes for the land.
In his heart Jones knew how little he
excelled the common ones,
Who were sending him to mingle with
and challenge the big guns;
In his fancy he could plainly see himself
unnOticed there,
Where the splendid statesmen lowered
and with wisdom filled the air.
Jones was awed when he beheld them
and first heard them called by name
Still the glamour was upon them, he was
daZZled by their fame,
And he watched them full Of wonder
yet a little sadly, too,
For in searching out the giants he found
very, very few.
Day by day he saw and heard them, day
by day his awe decreased;
He had feared and he had doubted, but
at length his trembling ceased;
He had learned at last that greatness is
but being stationed where
Almost anyone might dazzle if the fateS
had set him there.

CARELESS of expense. He says it will
be the best newly constructed road in
the United States. Some of the east
ern roads whose roadbeds have been
rebuilt may be superior, but never be-
fore was so much pains taken with a
road when first constructed.
Mr.. Sayles says Jim Hill declared
he did not want to rebuild it during
his lifetime The whole road is prac
tically level except at Cello and the
Cascades, and at these places the road
has been set back from the river sc
| that there is only a grade of five feet
to the mile.
Mr. Sayles will return to his work
tomorrow.
