THE KEIFER INTERVIEW.

On June Goth The Tribune printed
from copy turned in by ono OF Its
regular reporters, an interview with
the Hon. J. Warren Keifer, Repre-
sentative in Congress from Ohio, In
the course of this interview Mr.. Kei-
fer was represented as condemning the
Senate for seating Senator Smoot, and
as saying that he thought ''tho Sena-
tors who exposed the cause of Mormon
ism to that extent made mistake
We note in the Smoot organ in this
city what purports to be letter from
Mr.. Keifer repudicating the express
sions attributed to him in The Trib
une interview, and stating his belief
that the Senate 3 decision was right.
On the other hand, The Tribune re-
porter who had the interview with
Mr.. Keifer affirms in tie most posi-
tive manner that he quoted him ac
curately; and while it was not n mat
ter of stenography, he is an expert
enced, truthful man, who knows we'll
the Importance Of accuracy and faith
fulness. We believe fully that he re-
ported Mr.. Kiofer accurately, despite
Mr.. Keifer letter OF denial.
Further, the same reporter saw Mr..
Keifer off on the train the same day
that this interview was printed, and
asked him as to how it suited him.
Mr.. Keifer said that it was all right.
save as to auy impression which might
be derived from it that he had de
MED the legal right of the Senate to
oust Smoot He did not deny this, Of
course; nor was he reported as denying
it, But his objection TO Smoot. he
said, was put on a higher ground; his
association with and support of polyg-
ami5ts and the un-American system
with which he is so inseparsbly con-
nected, and of whith he is a part.
And as TO what anybody thought of
his opinion as expressed, he said, he
"didn t give d.
We are justified fully, therefore, in
believing that the interview in The
Tribune was an accurate report OF
what Mr.. Kelfer actually said. And
he reafirmed and approved it The next
day. as he was leaving town. II seems
to be a case, the like of which is all
too common among politicians, Of the
double face; caused usually by fear of
the effect of what has been said, when
the words are seen In cold print. But
he could not deny the facts to The
Tribune reporter to whom he had
talked.
1t is not possible that The Tribune
could have printed with design, any
false report about Mr.. keifer. The
interview was handed in in the usual
way, a part of the night S gleaniugs,
and was printed as turned in. Fair.
honest, truthful reports are enioined
upon every one in The Tribune's en-
ploy, whether reporters or correspon-
dents; there is no such thing as color
or bias in reporting facts, news, or
conversations. The only possible desire
is to have them written and printed
precisely as they occur. That is and al
ways has been The Tribune s aim
and effort and it is rule that cannot
be departed from.

The latter part Of this month former
United States Senator Fred L. Dubois Will

will lecture at Madison, s. D. and Will
have few Interruptions till August %.
The tour Will cover eight States-South
Dakota, Illinois. Missouri, Nebraska.

On July 2 he will lecture before the Big
Stone Lake Chautauqua at Simpson park.

troduced on that occasion by Senator a.
r. E<ittredge of South Dakota, who voted
against the seating of Apostle Smoot.
The introducing OF Senator Dubois AZ Big
Stone Lake ChautauQua by Senator Kilt

stance of the South Dakota Senator. as
the first intmation that Senator Dubois
had Of this was the reception of the pro-
sramme OF the exercises. Senator Dubois
will enlighten the people OF the country

JUST A POLITICAL FIGHT.
Southern Idaho (BlaCkfooD Mall:

The public lands convention at Denver
proved from the outset TO be nothing
more than a political night. Friends OF
the Admnistra ton attempted TO pack the
convention with delegates who would reg
lister a favorable report in regard TO the
Presidents public land policy. especially
as 1t relates TO forest reserves and the
ton was on hand. though. and from the
wraugle following the first meeting il is
plain, IN this Western country, the with
draNal of a large portion OF the public
domain by the Government does not meet
with entire favor. AS TO the question
of forest reserves though, We believe that
the President is right and that time
will vindicate him. providing. that med
desome politicians are made to keep
their hands off and the lands thus re-
served are managed and controlled in the
interests of all the people.

WORTH TALKING ABOUT.
Emery County Progress.

Tho real boosters Of Emery county
are its soil, water and climate, and If
each could talk as well as do. the name
of Emery county would be ringing in
the ears Of millions OF citizens all over
this broad land. However every cit
lien OF this highly favored region can
sound the praises OF the three great
combined essentials named and they
should start to shouting right now and
is worth talking about from sunrise to
sunset, with a night shift added. There
are n great many good places In Uncle
Sans wide domain. but none quite so
good as Emery county.
