happen il the matter were not
Strengthened out in some way. The
reply Of the stake official was: "Il
l have wronged Brother Blank in
any way, l will be glad to make il
right with him II only he will come
and see me-"
Precisely. II Brother Blank had
gone to see his offending superior
officer in respect to the matter,
that gentleman would have been
invited to peruse a certain revela-
ton in the Doctrine and Covenants,
and would have been asked If he
could find any ground for complaint
against the stake official that he
did not olive his religion" And
Brother Blank would have been
likewise informed that if he intend
ed to kick up any fuss over his
superior's new polygamy, a charge
of apostasy would b. laid against
him; because it could be shown
that Blank was merely complain.
ing against man who was practic.
ing the principles Of the gospel as
taught by the church, and as a con-
sequence the complainant would
have been in error and spostasy.
Blank would have been asked to
recant-and he would have re-
canted or would have been de-
clared a most hated apostate.
That may not have been the
exact mode Of procedure; but
Joseph F. Smith will be able to tell
the inquirer just what it would
have been. And as the president
Of the Mormon church knows of
this case intimately, he is foremost
among the men who are hiding it.
Ia fact, the official position OF the
offender against the statute and
civilized decency is the direct result
Of that offending. That is the way
in which the holy prophet rewards
The willful breaking of a commun-
ty's sacred promise; and that is
The manner in which the hierarchi-
cal despot vilifies the state OF Utah.

SUNDAY REST.

The advantage CD of the Sunday
rest law is now becoming apparent.
1t is a rather peculiar piece of legis-
lation when you think it over. For
instance, you may enjoy your clear
Havana if you are a smoker the
same on Sunday as any other day;
the law does not prohibit it's sale.
But to the poor fellow who loves a
few draws from pipe, if he
failed to lay in supply of tobacco
the previous Saturday night, there
is nothing doing Sunday. The fell
low addicted to the cheYjpe>6i
tobacco n dsaiedi tikss pleasure, too,
81 ne is short plug Sunday. The
law does not interfere with the TAX
ing of collections at the church
Sunday and you can slip a five
in the envelope to help pay the
minister's salary the same Sunday
as at the Wednesday nights prayer
meeting. Uncle Sam can sell post
age stamps but what good are they
when you can't buy the stationery?
Talk about blue laws and personal
liberty-we are there some in this
state.

IDA SAXTON Mckinley.

The wife of the late President
Mckinley while mistress OF the
White House SO typified the aver
age American character that she
endeared herself to the mass OF the
people perhaps more than any WON.
an occupying similar position
since the civil war. Ida Saxton Nc
kinley was type in the best sense
Of the word. Her views were the
views OF the average woman of the
central states and she typ6ed their
IDEAS. Her life presented singu-
ar exemplification of the conditions
Of the best in American womanhood
and her sturdy ideals and simple
character explain why a handful
Of ignorant farmers wrested the
great undeveloped domain in the
accident from the two great powers
Of Great Britain and Spain.
Her life is good to reflect UPON.
Understanding it, the meaning and
purpose Of the generations compris.
ing the backbone of the nation NAV
be understood. More truly than
even her husband, Mrs. McKinlev's
lineage, traditions, religion and
environment typify the simple, con-
sistent, pious existence Of the Am
erican ofthe century closing in 1870,
when the rapid development of
resorces ushered in the era of com.
mercialism. Miss Saxton was born

in Canton, in 1S47. 1t was then
little more than village. Her
father was a country banker. She
worked in his bank and taught in a
Presbyterian Sunday school.
1t is easy to bring back the sim
pie round of duties of that period,
the sweet beauty of the country
maid still visible in her placid face
in the closing days even after the
loss OF her lifemate. Such women
made ideal wives and il as a class
they are passing the nation is the
worse for it. She married William
Mckinley out of score Of suitors,
many Of them rich.
Two children died in infancy and
at that period the wife became a
hopeless invalid. Thereafter they
had no home, according to the cen
trail states idea of a home. Bereft
of progeny, they found consolation
in life 30 beautiful that political
critics of William Mckinley never
dared to breathe suspicion of his
moral character. While he was
governor Of Ohio they set an exam
pie that still influences the execu-
tive mansion of the state, and
while occupying the White House
they took the nation back a gener-
alton to the days when primitive
Americanism had not been replaced
by apish imitation Of European
pomp and subservience. = Star

WHERE REWARD is
MERlTED,

In this age Of political reform
partisanism is becoming less severe
among the people of this country
and it is not now considered an
act of party disloyality to be-
stow upon a public official OF an
opposing political faith, honors due
him for the faithful performance
Of a duty. The more liberal mind
ed are crowding the partisan poll
tician out Of the ring and the So
called ''yellow dog politics" is
dying a natural death.
An evidence of this is shown in
the action of the Pocatello com.
mercial club, the other evening
IN voting to hold public reception
n honor of Senator Dubois and
10 recognition Of q eervice he
performed Tor that CITY in getting
: bill through oohgtsss sor an
appropriation to construct an irri-
cation system for the Fort Hall
lands and those adjacent to Poca-
tello.
No doubt there are men, men,
bers Of the POcatello commercial
club, who hold political views op.
posite to those of the senator, but
just the same they would not deny
him a merited recognition for the
valuable service he rendered,
through fear that he might secure
some political advantage or in.
fluence.
1t is good to note the change in
public sentiment regarding public
officials and that their acts, if wor-
thy of commendation, will receive
such without regard to political
Affiliations.

"HUSH-UP" POLYCAMY.

AS to the disposition of the Nor
mon church officials toward new
polygamy, which has been entered
into since the issuance of the Wood.
ruff manifesto, an incident which
exemplifies one of the "hnsh- up"
methods should be related. And
those individuals who demand
proofs are respectfully referred to
Joseph f. Smith for the convicting
evidence, as The Tribune has no
doubt that he will be amply able
to identify the case more fully than
it is here set forth.
A member of the presidency of
stake within Salt Lake county ia
commonly reputed to be a new
polygamist. In the neighborhood
of bis residence there is absolutely
no question as 80 the mans guilt in
this respect. People who live near
to him even know the woman to
whom he is plurally married.
Since the testimony of Joseph F.
Smith was given at Washington.
wherein he denied that the church
recognized these new polygamous
unions, there has been much
grnmb!ing over the fact that this
particular stake official had not
been brought to an accounting for
his breach Of the law of the state
and of the church. One of these
men became SO indignant in con.
versation with his fellow church
members, concerning the offense of
his superior officer, that an init.
mate friend Of the latter warned
MIN that something was likely to

HANG ORCHARD.

Orchard, the self confessed assas.
sin, is not deserving of one grain
of sympathy and should be taken
at his word when he says that he
expects no immunity. The moose
Of the hangman's rope should be
adjusted quickly around his neck
and miserable life snuffed out.
Might just as well hurry the wicke d
eur along and let him be making
his peace with his creator. The
chief executive of this state was in
great business when he was
spending his time interviewing q
man with the blood OF foul MUIR
der not yet dry on his hands and
talking to him in such a way that
it was necessary for Orchard to
warn him to be careful lest through
his remarks he might be lead to
expect immunity. just what sort
of conversation do you suppose
! Frank Gooding was having with
Orchard at that time? Orchard
has been petted. well fed and
groomed like a prize steer at coun-
try fair by the state during his i'm.
prisonment. In fact, it looks az
though he was "the darling child"
Of a certain gangs mind.
The guilt of Meyer, Haywood
7ad Pettibone, is yet TO be proven,
d Notwithstanding the remark
made by the president that they are
bad citizens, we have no right to
railroad them off to the scaffold.
A fair trial, the same as any or
binary murder would receive, is all
that justice demands. If they are
guilty they should hang, but there
is no necessity for the activity of
some state officials and politician ms
in making so strenuous an effort to
convict. Let the case be tried the
same as an ordinary murder. Some
things very irregular have occurred
in connection with this trial
and the Western Federation is not
the only party to be censured.
