 This graduate of Y5ue in the Sheffield class of 1893, as reform mayor of Har- rlsburg from 1902 to 1905, has blazed a shining way for all young men of priv ilege, energy and high civic ideals who are willing at the sacrifice of imme- diate personal interests to join or lead the fight of the best citizenship against the corruption which inevita- ply prevails when a commercial den- ocracy is left to the tender mercies of 1 its lowest citizenship. The ear-marks 1 of this corruption are "a corrupt po- | lice force, collecting tribute through a corrupt chief, for division with a cor lrupt mayor. MT.

Since his graduation from Yale in 1S77 MT. Tooker has led purely lit erary life, far from, though in the heart of the maddening crowd. Thirty years have brought him, slowly, but securely, into sequence with Stedman and Sill in our short list of Yale poets. In 1885 his lyric poetry won for him an honored editorial position on the staff of leading monthly magazine. In it's pages, and those of other magazines, he has enriched us with prose and verse whose art is pure and true. Es- pecially has he interpreted anew for us the undying voice of the sea,

tMHY NOT BE FAIR?

In their eagerness to make political
capital at a critical time in the cam
paign, the spokesman Of the Repub-
lican and American parties seem to
have lost sight of the fact that abuse
of opponents and charges of GRIM
inality against large bodies of citizens
react upon the whole community with
out profiting anybody.
1t is common here TO read, almost
daily, that the Mormon people of Salt
Lake are slaves to a criminal organi-
cation of disreputable leaders, that
will add to the city's wealth and popu-
lation. that they are ignorant, vicious
and undesirable citizens, not worthy of
their national heritage.
Now these statements are utterly I'M
true. The Mormon people are not to be
distinguished from other citizens in
similar walks of life. They pay their
debts, they are industrious, they have
done their full share in the upbuilding
of the city and state. Whatever the
political situation may justify it does
not warrant the charge that these peo-
pie are worse than the average of citi-
zenship elsewhere; on the contrary. in
the homely virtues of sobriety, indus
try and regard for obligations they
rank higher than most people in the
mass. They have their ignorant and
vicious; their indolent and unworthy,
as every organization has, but it is
not fair to judge the mass by indi-
viduals.
On the other hand, almost daily at
tacks are made by the Republicans on
the Americans in terms unwarrant-
ed by the facts. A party that includes
sincere men and women in thousands,
people known of all the community for
their uprightness, their devotion to
what they think is right, is not GRIM
fnal organization. 1t has had unworthy
leaders. some of its chief representa-
tives in office have betrayed important
trusts and cast odium on the whole
city; it has taken what The Herald be-
lieves the wrong course to solve a
problem that has perplexed the disin-
terested friends of Utah for decades.
Even so, the rank and file of the
american" party are not to be de-

A DUTY THAT
EVERY WOMAN
OWES HERSELF
To Guard Her Health at Import.
ant Times i'm Her Life When
Her Physical Condition
Will Decide Her
Future.

1t is useless to tell a Woodworking
woman to take life easy and not worry.
But it is the duty of every woman as
she approaches the age of forty to save
her strength as much as possible, TO take
her cares as lightly as may be and TO
build up her system to meet any unusual
demands upon it. It is a duty not only
to herself but to her family for her future
health depends upon it.
To guard against complete break
down in health, the blood must be kept
pure and rich. No other medicine does
this 50 well as DR.. Williams Pink Pills,
for they act both on the blood and on the
nerves, restore the appetite, and keep
every organ toned up. All women can
not rest whenever they should but this
strengthening medicine is within every
woman s reach.

l suffered from such terrible pains in the
top Of my head that thought should
go crazy. My limbs were always cold
and was often so dizzy and short of
breath that could hardly get about the
house. My blood was thin and I lost
over 30 pounds in weight. Many days 1
had to give up and go to bed.
my doctor said he could not help me
and later when had hacking cough
feared I might go into consumption.

TEACHERS, ATTENTION.

The Herald again calls the attention
of teachers in the public schools to the
excellent series of educational articles
on nature study appearing each week
IN this paper.
These contributions. from the pen OF
Professor Paul of the state university,
not only discuss in popular language
many of the most interesting aspects
of western nature. but also furnish to
teachers a series of outlines and details
I'm the latest and most approved meth
DDS of presenting this subject in school
lessons.
The essays appear first in this pa
per. Later they are made up into bull
letins issued by the state normal school
and sent out to the public schools.
Teachers who take The Sunday Her
aid will be able to get their nature
study articles from one to two weeks
earlier than their respective schools
will receive them when issued as bull
letins.
Observation Of nature is the best
kind of recreation for the individual,
and the true basis for education in the
school. We commend these delightful
studies to the public in general and
TO schoolmen in particular.

POLITICS IN SIDEWALKS.

Two years ago, under the Morris ad-
ministration, plans were made for side
walks throughout the Fourth municipal
and east of State. Assessments were
made and the money for the sidewalks
was collected and turned over to the
American" administration. Contracts
were let and eventually a small part of
the contracts was completed
Work on the undertaking had not
progressed far when the contractors
concluded they could make more money
by laying the walks In other parts of
the city, where conditions were easier
From that time until the past ten days
all the efforts of prOperty-owners have
awaited nothing toward completion of
the walks. The Americans" Cancelled
the old contracts and re-let the work
to the same contractors at higher fig
ures, but no move was made in the
way of construction.
Property-owners demanded the return
of their money they threatened suit,
they eXpostulated with the council and
the board of public works, but, until
election day drew near it was impossi-
BILE to get any satisfaction from the city
officials. Meanwhile all the money paid
in was earning interest for somebody
not for the city or for the taxpayers,
but for some American" individual or
bank which was favored with the GUS
tody of the funds.
Now that the election is less than a
month away, when voters in that pre-
cinct are in the mood to remember the
treatment they have been accorded, a
great and violent activity prevails in
the sidewalk business; gravel is flying
in every direction, and the interest of
the administration in that region is as
marked as it is unusual.
Possibly this deathbed repentance,
this discovery that sidewalks are really
needed that were paid for two years
ago, may make votes for the Amer
leans" but if it does, the voters up
that way have very short memories and
are the most forgiving folks in all this
part of the country.

scribed fairly and truthfully in the
newspapers and spellbinders.
Further, the Democratic party has
incurred the displeasure of both fac
tions in the divided Republican camp
because it refuses to become identified
with either side of their quarrel. The
Republicans assert vehemently that the
Democracy is allied with the Amer
icans;" the newspapers and leaders of
the American" party assert just as
vehemently-and dishonestly-that the
Democracy and the Republican party in
Utah are identical in control and pur-
pose. Down in their hearts they know
the statement is untrue, but they re-
peat it in the hope of political gain.
Why not be fair?
Why not concede in justice that the
people of Salt Lake, of whatever po-
litfcal party, are sincerely DESTROYS of
getting the best results possible for the
city?
Why not stop the abuse of individ-
uals long enough to permit a straight
forward, honest discussion of political
purposes and policies?
Why not abandon a campaign pro-
cedure which can only injure the city,
and proceed to talk over the real issues
involved. without trying to convince
every citizen that his neighbor of a diff
fering view is a seoundrel or unfit to
be trusted in any capacity?
So far, the Democrats have followed
this plan. They have been free with
criticism of what they regard as
wrongs in administration, and properly
so; they have presented a strong ticket
and asked the support of voters for it
on its merits. They promise an honest,
businesslike management of the city's
affairs; but they have not descended to
libel of the whole community or any
portion of it, and they will maintain
that attitude and still make their cam
paign aggressive enough to win.
Wouldn't it be a good thing for the
whole city, for all the people, if the
other parties were to adopt the same
plan? And if so. why not?
