The Square Deal, I"

Under the new anti-discrimin-
nation law in this state telephone
companies that have been fur
nishing telephones in county and
city Offices, etc, for the free use
and benefit of the public, have
been compelled to charge for the
same or remove them. But this
is as it should be. The person
that uses a telephone should pay
for it, just as people who ride on
railroads should be treated alike.
When public utilities and fran
chises are taken out of politics
and the entire system is placed
on business basis we will have
travelled long way toward the
contamination of the "square

worker. If there is a man re-

The idea to "See America
First" is somewhat handicapped
as a result of the failure of the
railroads to grant the usual cheap
rates because of antagonistic
legislation. They are not COM
peting with the steamship lines,
which lure moneyed Americans
to Europe. Despite this, how
ever, the movement Is securing
some increased strength. Aside
from the patriotic principles
which should inspire Americans
to see the beauties of their own
country first, the plan has its
own compensation. There are
as many beautiful, if less noted,
spots in America as elsewhere
and those who ''see America
First" will be amply rewarded
for their efforts

THE YANKEE REGENT"

Musical Comedy will be the a:trac-
ton at the Salt Lake Theatre the
first half of next week, when the
Yankee Regent" Ben M. Jerome's
latest offering will be seen for the
first time.
"The Yankee Regent" contrary to
the rule of so-called light opera, is
said to disclose a consistent plot, in
geniously worked out and furni sh'ng
the comedian, Mr.. Toby Lyons with
perhaps the best vehicle in his sue
cessful career. The plot of the tune
full concert opens in an obscure Ger
man principality where the death of
the aged ruler makes imperative the
selection of his successor, and peri
patetic Yankee, an ex-politician and
erstwhile poet, who claims kinship,
thirty-two degrees removed from the
departed Regent, ascends the throne
to incidentally uncork world of
complicated situations, dealing with
the struggling Regents" attempts
to dodge an undesirable sweetheart Of
his youth, to prevent the marriage of
the Princess, which terminates his
reign, and his subsequent capturing
of an American heiress, ends the piece
with a decidedly unique innovation
disclosing buresque base ball game
with full company impersonating the
Chicago Cubs and White Son
