paper an account of an intercollegiate
OratOricaI contest held at Iowa city. when
Robert NJ LaFOllette, a young man from
Wisconsin. won the gold medal and easily
led all others in the contest This was in
1879. Mr.. Groshelrs report contained the
following: "R. NJ. LaFollette stepped to

OF his production. Entering on his work
with earnestness and feeling. the speaker
portrayed lagos character with startling
vividness. Mr.. LaFollette was at home
with his theme, handling it with grace
and skill"
The report states that the award of the
gold medal to the young man from Wis

audience did not receive the award of
the second prize with the . same
unanimitY.

Option important Factor in
Big Reorganization Plan.
U. S. |. co. is IN TROUBLE
LOCAL CONCERN LUCKY TO ES.
CAPE FROM BAD TANGLE.

Financial difficulties that encompass big
eastern holding companies have made it
possible for Utah capitalists to secure
control OF the Utah Independent Tele-
phone company securities at a low figure.
according TO the reorganization plan of
the United States Independent Telephone
company made public yesterday at
Rochester, n. Y. The United States COM
pany owns the control of the Utah COM
pany. which IL secured from the Strom-
berg-CarlSon company. The StrOmbers-
Carlson company financed the Utah COLI
Germ at the beginning, and when the
StrOmberg-C Carlson company was merged
with the United States company the con-
troll of the 'Utan plant went in as part OF
the assets of the United States company.
The officers of the United States COM
pany have now given an option for $780,
coo. which if taken up as officers of the
Utah Independent say it will be, will take
the local company wholly away from its
eastern connections.

UTAH GOVERNOR
IGNORES LABOR
Cutler NegleCtS to Issue Usual
Holiday PrOClama-
ton.
UNION MEN WROUGHT UP
INSULT TO THE COMMUNITY
SAYS w. S. DALTON.

Governor John c. Cutler left for the ir-
rigation congress at Sacramento last even
ing without issuing a Labor day procla-
nation.
Willard Done he of the pedigree. who
acts as Cutters secretary. left soon af-
terward for Payson. AS Done writes all
proclamations any hope that the COVER
nor has issued one or will issue one is
gone.
Labor day is a legal holiday in Utah
Ever since the day was established ii has
been the custom of governors to issue a
proclamation. commenting upon labor and
asking the people of the state to observe
Governor Cutters failure to comply
with the demands Of custom this year is
either willful or occurred through negI-
gence-
Labor leaders are inclined to the view
that it is willful as the governor is known
to be hostile to labor unions.
Taken AS An Insult.
Among union men the governors action
Is taken as a direct insult to their cause
and no doubt some action will be taken
by the Federation of Labor in the shape
of appropriate resolutions.
In the absence of the governor, ChafleS
S. Tingey, secretary of state acts in his
place. It is, however. doubtful whether
Mr.. Tingey would take it upon himself
TO issue a prOClaDldllOn OF llilS tlldA dCltl
and even If he did it would not help the
governor any as the omission on his part
would be even more noticeable in case
the secretary acted.
There is a possibility that the governor
has really issued a proclamation. but if
so he has neglected to give it TO the press
but has it slowed away in his vault or
pocket. or possibly DOne's pocket for safe
keeping, hoping, perhaps, that no one
would notice his omission.
Oalton's Angry Talk.
W. S Dalton. one of the most promi-
nent labor leaders in Utah. was mad clear
through when informed-of the governor s
failure to act
1T is an Insult to every working man,
he said, "and it is an insult to every citi-
zen of Utah as well I call 1t an outrage
and 1 know every labOring man in Utah
will consider it as such. At this time
when the people are fighting the grOcers
and butchers trust and when they espe-
ciaIIv need encouragement the governor
has gone to Sacramento TO attend some
big doings and has ignored and insulted
every man and woman in Utah who works
for a living"

Importance of Option.

The option secured by Managing Direc-
tor Elmer B. Jones and his associates has
another important bearing, as II is a vital
factor in the scheme for recognizing the
United States company and the Indepe1d-
ent Telephone Securities company, allied
holding concerns and among the largest
independent telephone organizations in
the country.
The United States Independent Tele-
phone company was organized as a So
100000 COOPERATION a few years ago, to
compete with the Bell interests all over
the country. 1t issued bonds to the
amount of 49, 407, 600, which were used TO
purchase holdings as follows: Stromberg-
Carlson company, g, 482, 400; Rochester
Telephone company, $956,600; Utah indie
pendent Telephone company, S2,006, 455;
New York Independent Telephone COM
pany, S961,JCJ; indianapolis Telephone CON-
PAW, S170,747; expenses in connection with
sale of bonds, $271, 0OC.
The report Of the executive committee.
as published at Rochester, says: The
Utah company represents a cash invest
ment of 81 100000. Its assets are valued
at Sl.630O00 and liabilities at $4,000, leav-
ing net assets of about 81, i00G00."

Undertook Too Much.

By saying that at the time the United
States independent Telephone company
was formed the profits Of the StrOmbcrg-
Carlson company had been largely alb
sOrbed by an unWise investment Of nearly
81 00G.0OO in Utah and by extending large
credits to irresponsible companies, invOlv-
ing possible losses of two millions of dol
lars" the committee suggests that the
Stromberg- Carlson company had under
taken more than II was financially able to
perform when it undertook to finance the
Utah company. Inefficient management
of the affairs of the big companies, too
low rates TO subscribers. unfavOrable con-
ditions of the bond market and OVer-cap-
itaHzation are enumerated az causes that
led to the failure of the United States
company.
The advisory committee says that the
United States company must be reOrgan-
lied or its affairs wound up without fur
Their delay. Suits are now pending That
mean receiVerships and greater COmpliCa-
tions unless reorganization is effected at
once. Speaking of the reorganization plan
the committee says;
There is no possibility that the COM
pany (meaning TIE United States ccncern)
will ever have earnings sufficient to en-
able it to pay interest upon its outstand-
ing bonds. The amount of outstanding
bonds, SIS, f07, 900, is three times the value
of all the stocks of other companies by
which the bonds are secured, even If
such other companies be regarded as go
ing prosperous concerns The StrOm-
berg-C Carlson Telephone Manufacturing
company, the Rochester Telephone com
papy and the New York Independent Tel
ephOne company, all controlled by the
United States company, are referred to
as not prosperous and their affairs are
growing worse from day to day
