THE NEED FOR COMPREHENSIVE.
There is wise old German saying
that Only god or a brute can
dwell in solitude Men and women
need congenal companionship, both

such a thing as mental as well as
physical hunger. Herders on the cat
tie ranches of the west frequently be-
come mad from the isolation they are
forced to endure Women on lonely
farms and in small villages grow NOR
bid and mildly insane, and people do
not guess that the cause is want of
companionship 1t is for this reason
that woman's work at home is al.
ways more trying than that of her
husband, who goes to his Office, sees
new faces and has the friction that is
produced by meeting other people.
Even the farmer has more intercourse
with his neighbor at market or at
the village grocery than his wife, who
may not see one outside of her own
family for weeks. 1t is a great mis-
take for young people to isolate them
selves. Even if their tastes lead them
to quiet life, they should make it
a point to cultivate a few agreeable
friends-Woman' Life.

for the four years of strife in the polit-
ical, civil and social affairs of Utah.
They serve no ends but their, own. and
they have interfered in other peoples
business TO the neglect Of their own
duties until tolerance has become i'm
possible.
There are some redeeming features
in the record. One is the attitude of
the senate members from Salt Lake,
and particularly of Senator Benner X.
Smith, who introduced the Galveston
measures and did much to bring them
near success. Another is the public in
terest. the civic spirit which the dis
cussion has developed. No recent
movement has met with such general
approval, and none has been supported
so well. 1t augurs well for the future
of local government that the best men
and women OF the city should have
been so thoroughly aroused to the pos
sibilities of municipal reform They
have demonstrated the fact that the
next city election. even under the old
system, will find the people determined
to get better men to represent them in
city affairs. and that is long step
forward.
Meanwhile. Speaker Joseph may
think he has advanced his political for
tunes, but he is quite as likely to find
that he has ended his public career.
His tricky evasions. his snap votes, his
lodging and twisting finally brought
him up to the point where he had to
go on record, though that was the last
thing he desired. He had to choose
between his own interest and the inter-
ests Of his constituents and, as might
have been expected. he chose what he
thought would profit himself most.
When it comes to the next conven-
ton Joseph win probably find that the
gang he trains with. the officeholders
who have tempted him to betrayal for
political reward, will abandon him as
an undesirable candidate for any office.
Having used him they will not care to
take the chance of defeat; and retire
ment in disgrace is in store for him if
ever betrayal of a public trust earned |
defeat.
