LA TOILETTE IS COMING
Noted Wisconsin Senator Will
Lecture in Zion Next
April,

United States Senator Robert NJ. La
Toilette of Wisconsin will speak at the
Salt Lake Theatre April 20 under the
auspices of the Y. NJ. c. A. He will
talk on national problems. Senator
LaFollette. as governor of Wisconsin,
gained national reputation in his fight
for reform in railroad rates. He fought
the political machine of Senators JOS
eph V. Quarles and John c. Spooner
and succeeded in defeating Senator
QuaFles in 1905 for senator. Before
this he was elected for three terms in
the house Of representatives and was
defeated for reelection to the house in
1890
In 1900 he was elected governor of
the state of Wisconsin and served
three terms.
Senator LaFollette finally broke the
political machine in Wisconsin and
was elected to the senate in 1905 for
the six-year term. For nearly a year
after his election to the senate he kept
his seat as governor in order to pass
some railroad legislation. Before he
entered the political field he was ad-
mitted to the bar and practiCed in
Madison, Wis, for several years.

LIBRARY IS MORE POPULAR
Moving Into New Building Has
Had Marked Effect on
Patronage,

Moving into its handsome new build
ing on State street has made a marked
increase in the popularity Of the city
library.
The circulation and attendance has
increased about One-third," said Miss
Joanna Sprague, the librarian, yester-
day. ''The number of books taken out
during January were about II 600, show
ing an increase of $3.50 over the same
month q year ago. Probably the great
est gain is in the childTen's department
The increase has been along good lines,
more books, prcpOrtiOnately speaking,
Of the nOn-fiCttOn class having been
borrowed. This has been due to the
fact that the Open-shelf system has
been used, because people are able to
find what they want or see books that
they hadn't thought Of. Since the theft
Of so many books has been discovered
a return to the ClOsed-shelf system has
been contemplated. This would be a
bad thing for both borrowers and at
tendants.
1.-THE reading room attendance has
also increased considerably, this being
especially noticeable Sundays, many
spending the entire afternoon here"

SCANDALS IN ARMY LIFE.
Taggart Case Recalls Some Remarks
by Rudyard Kipling.
(DeS MOines REGISTER. }

ApFOpOS the notorious Taggart divorce
case, an attempt has been made to be-
smirch garrison life as d whole Com
mentators have quoted freely from Kip
ling "Barrack Room Ballads to prove
that the old-fashioned principles of fidel-
lty and morality have been lost TO all but
memorys aching sight in American army
posts, as well as British, Some have even
gone 50 far as TO insinuate that the aver
age army officer not only knows the Kip
ling lines, but lives them:
I've taken my fun where I found it,
I've rOUged an I've ranged In. my time,
I've 'ad my pickin' of sweethedrts,
An four of the lot was prime.
One was q. 'alf-caste widow,
One was a woman of Prone,
One was the wife of q jamadar sails,
An one is a girl at 'ome--e~
The libel would seem TO be SO gross as
to react upon its authors, and yet its
repetition in comment on the Taggart
those who maintain, yet do not explain
why their contention is tenable, that
Mrs. Taggart would not have made her
now notorious stunning tour IN San
Francisco had she not -heen the wife of
an army man; that she would not have
been able to dispose of cocktails and
whisky straight without blinking an eye
Rad she not been trained TO. il by army
post life. It is the old argument that
woman cannot live upon the stage and
preserve her purity-the garrison has just
been substituted for the theatre.
rs there any reason why the army WO-
man should be depicted as less discreet
than her sisters in civil Ife2'' was put to
Mrs. Taggart point blank by an inter
viewer, and the woman replied: THE
army life of a woman is not the life, per-
haps, of a woman in a small community
Ike this. But women there denlean them
selves with the same discretion and pro-
prlety they DO elsewhere"
Natural inclination has far more to do
with immOrals or immoral conduct than
has environments. Mrs. Taggart would
undoubtedly have visited the slums of
San Francisco had she been the wife Of
a street car conductor or a bank presi-
dent. Being the wife of an army cap
tain made only this difference: her hus-l
band was away on duty and there was
less danger of her being discovered in
the act
If Kipling is apropos of the Taggart
case and Of the slanderOus deductions, it
is in the refrain of the poem quoted,
1ather than in the body:
What did the colonePs lady think?
Nobody eve" knew,
Somebody asked the Sergeant'S wife
An she told them true.
When you come TO the man in the case,
They re as like as rows OF pins,
For the colonies lady and Judy OGrady
Are sisters under their skins.

He expressed great confidence In Judge

While they were talking, Judge Zane
related, the local editor Of a Springfield
