AS TO CRIMINAL APPEALS.

The senate a few days ago passed the
bill suggested by President Roosevelt
to give the government the right OF APP
peal on questions of law in criminal
cases. The measure did not get through
the senate until after nearly all. the
constitutional lawyers in that body had
a whack at it. AS first presented. it
was full of objections that the lawyers
regarded as fatal. for by the operation
of some of its provisions they argued
that it might be possible to place a
defendant twice in jeopardy.
This was not the presidents idea at
all, nor was it the idea of any of those
who were in favor OF the bill AS en-
acted the measure merely allows the
government the right to appeal for the
purpose of securing a construction of
criminal statutes by the highest court
in the land. It Is distinctly specified
that in no case shall a decision favor
able to a defendant be reversed and a
new trial ordered. The finding of the
trial judge may be declared to be err
roneous. but the rights of the defend
ant are not thereby affected. Such a
reversal would merely establish
method of procedure for future cases of
the same sort.
The bill is a frst-cIass one in every
respect. and the house of representa-
tives should by all means pass II. AS

WHAT THE TEACHERS ASK.

After mature elaboration and due
consideration. the American morning
newspaper concludes that the teachers
OF salt Lake. have framed up a. dark.
deep plot to discredit the "American"
city administration BY asking an in
crease in teachers salaries that will
enable them to pay expeBses. To be
sure. there seems TO be nc rational con-
nection between the teachers desire to
earn a bare living and the plot which
so perturbs the Americans" but then
there. need be nothing rational 10 ae-
count for such q vagary as that.
The fact is that the teachers of salt
Lake are paid less than a living wage.
although their work ranks high. their
responsibility for the welfare of the
community is very great and they are
discharging that responsibility with
credit to themselveS andsthe comnuni-
~. Although the cost of living has in
creased very much. although the teach
ers are required to maintain appear
.anees at considerable expense not in
volved in other occupations. the schools
have continued to employ men and
women at practically the same salaries
that were in force before expenses in
creased until now. as shown by the
statement prepared for the legislature,
the salaries paid win not meet the bare

VOTE ON sMooI TODAY.

AT O'Clock today the senate of
the United States will vote upon
the report OF the Burrows COM
mittee, which recommends that SEN
ator Reed Shoots seat shall be de-
clared vacant by a majority vote The
question will be decided in favor of
Senator SmoOt. who will retain his seat
Two important factors will enter into
the final decision. One is the unwfll-
ingness of the senate to declare that a
senator can be unseated by less than a
twO-thirds vote: the other is the de-
termination of the president of the
United States and the leaders of the
Republican party to keep Senator
Smoot in his place as a return for po-
litical favors rendered and expected
Either one of these factors would be
decisive. coming together they are ir-
resistible.
To Utah the result has been a fore
gone conclusion for 2 long time; in fact
it might have been known from the po-
hticsl conditions at The outset since the
power of the administration. and par

self. has been thrown on the Smoot
side from the inception of the case. He
and his party We're beneficiaries of the
same forces that sent Smoot TO the
senate; they hope TO have the same po-
litical forces at their command in the
future. and if there had been no other
reason for supporting Smoot this would
have been enough.
Just what the result of the vote will
be here in Utah remains 10 be seen.
These who have grown tired of the
controversy long since would be glad
to see a new alignment politically if
that were possible. which would obliter-
ate all the marks of the tight and start
the state anew on better basis. The
experiment of a third party has been
a failure in the only department of
government where it has been tried,
but even after defeat and the disrepute
into which the Americans" have
fallen in Salt Lake il is not likely they
will abandon the contest.
On the other hand, Smoot and his
friends. with the fruits of victory
I'm their hands. are not likely to be in
a retiring mood; on the contrary, they
may be expected to take the vote as a
warrant for still further extension of
their political machine and to ride
roughshod over any resistance within
their own party.
Eventually the people will have TO
take the one chance Of escape from
both the Smoot machine and the
"Americans" and elect Democrats who
are identified neither with the machine
nor the Americans" Il may take
some time for them to realize that this
only will settle the whole controversy.

necessities of existence. much less pro-
vide the reserve for old age, for rec
reation and Improvement which every
man and woman should be able to earn
To meet this condition of affairs. the
teachers have asked the legislature to
permit AN increase in the tax levy of a
small amount so the board of educa-
ton may pay them reasonable but not
extravag CANT salaries. They do not ask
such pay as the city gives to other peo-
pie entrusted with much less important
work; they ask no such salaries as
business men are compelled to pay for
the same or less valuable services;
they do not even ask that Salt Lake
pay the same scale as other cities of
the country which are more favorably
situated as TO cost of living. All. they
ask is enough to maintain themselves
in what many would regard as strait
ened circumstances. so they may meet
their ordinary obligations and be able
to live comfortably and respectfully.
The city administration has raised
the salaries and wages of practically
every employee from the teamsters up.
1t was not even urged to do this, nor
was there any talk about plot to en-
barrass the administration when the
action was taken More than that, il
has granted additional help to nearly
every office in the city departments and
10 g., MI
look princely as compared with the
earnings of public school teachers. The
commonest teamster on the city's pay
roll earns more in year than the av-
erage grade school teacher, and much
more than the majority of the grade
teachers. Surely it is not contended
that teachers work. her responsible
ity or her achievements. are not as i'm
portant as a transfers.!
One argument advanced against the
grant of the teachers. petition is that
the city is compelled to pay interest on
the S1.OOO,OOO bond issue for the new
water supply and sewerage system. A
perusal of the ordinance for those
bonds will show that the interest is to be
met out of revenue from water rentals;
and an accurate statement of those
rentals will show that they are con-
stantly increasing and are ample to
meet the charges without an additional
tax levy if the revenue is properly adj
ministered. The trouble has been the
willingness of the. city administration
to use water receipts to meet a growing
deficit in the general fund due to ex
travagance and incompetence. The
talk about interest on water bonds is
a plea in avoidance. a confession of
poor management and an evasion of
ordinance requirements as applied to
the interest question.
Aside from any question of political
mana cement. the teachers are paid less
than they are worth, less than the COM
monest grades of labor, less than good
teachers should be asked TO work for.
The city must make up its mind TO pay
them fair wages or see the teaching
force disintegrate and be demoralized
by the substitution of less competent
teachers who are willing to accept less
than living compensation for their sery-
ices.

PRESIDENT TO KAISER.
Special Message Said to Have Been
Sent by Baron Sternburg.


\ most important revelation in
connection with Baron Sternburg,
German ambassador, and his visit TO
Germany at this time has been made
by a diploma in this city, says the
Washington Star. He told Star man
that although the purpose of this va
cation-a very brief one. by the way
in oStensibly to take a rest in his
own country, in reality it is concern
ed With the present instability Of
German international politics. 1t was
even said that Baron Sternburg was
the bearer Of an important message
to Emperor William from President
Roosevelt, Ind that this action was
being hidden by the pretext Of va
cation on his estate. which, accord
ing to the ambassador himself, is to
last only a few weeks.
In connection with the German am
bassador's departure, it is hinted that
two other ambassadors may find it
necessary to postpone or rearrange
their plans for the late spring and
summer. These ambassadors are
Baron des Planches and NJ. Jusserand.
It turns out that the cause of this
diplomatic turmoil is the disarma-
,,,o,,- o,,,oe+;o,, o+ Tho Eaona oS r,ro
posed by England, and what may hap
pen in case Germany and Austria will
insist on not discussing the proposal.
This question concerns the United
States, because it is believed-and the
Presidents remarks lately seem to
confirm this view of it-that. if the
powers persist in maintaining their
decisive stand it will cause realign-
ment Of the nations, and serious
rupture will occur between this
country and Germany. 1t is with
these possibilities in view that the
Italian and French ambassadors will
endeavor to place before their re-
spective governments special reports
containing suggestions.
According to The Stars informant
it has at last been decided that it will
be impossible to avoid .realignment
of the powers if Italy will decide to
remain in the triple alliance after
1909, when the terms Of the present
agreement will expire. In saying
this the diplomat referred to the
bitches that are likely to occur in
the near future between England and
Germany and France and Germany.
The United States government, so
far, has been in sympathy with
France and England more than with
Germany. Now if Italy will persist
in taking sides with Austria and Ger
many at the Hague conference, it is
stated, it Will cause a halt in the
synpathies between herself and Eng
land and France and also this coun-
try. 1t was pointed out that Italy
.enaoc afford to ally herself by ar
agreement that will benefit only
austria and Germany, as she herself
