company that gathered spent a de-
lightful evening and the very heartiest
spirit of fellowship and good will pre-
vailed.
Music that was very highly appreciat-
ed by all was furnished throughout the
evening by Bannister's orchestra, while
words OF hearty welcome, giving the
pastor and family large place in the
affections and sympathies Of the con
gregration were very touchingly spoken
by Brother Ossman, to which the pastor
responded.
While the happy company were en-
joying themselves In the church the
deacons found access to the parsonage
where they heaped upon the floor and
tables the very many substantial tokens
o. good cheer which had been left in
their care elsewhere by the many mem
bers and friends of the congregation.
This was complete surprise to the pas
tor and family and heartily appreciated
by them.
The ladies or the church served de-
lightful refreshments during the even
ing and felt it was very happy occa-
sion not to be forgotten, and pastor an d
people. thus bound closer together, look
with courage and confluence to the work
OF the church.

WElL HANDLED STORY.

The McWhirter scandal. beginning
with the $4,000 robbery of two Scotch
men on the night of Sept 10, 1906, and
eliminating in the resignation of Chief
Sheets Wednesday, has been one of the
most prolific newspaper stories ever
handled by the Salt Lake press. The
fair and accurate manner in which
the many developments and ramifica-
lions were presented by The Herald
won the respect and confidence of all
parties concerned.
On July Is The Herald printed ex-
elusively the news that Chief Sheets
had been bound over to the district
court under the second complaint,
charging conspiracy. On July %, the
confession of Bell, which turned the
tide of public opinion squarely against
the chief, was printed exclusively in
this paper. On July 2S, The Herald
gave the first authoritative announce
ment that Chief Sheets would resign.
On July 81, The Herald printed exclu-
sively the announcement that Chief
Sheets would step down on that day.
This notable succession of newspaper
coups was scored largely through the
efforts of Francis V. FITZGERALD,
member of The Herald staff Mr.
FITZGERALD has handled the story for
The Herald from its inception, and in
so doing has made a record of which
any newspaper man might well feel
proud.

NEW MEXICO AND POLITICS.

When Roosevelt was attempting 20
force a union of Arizona and New
Mexico in statehood, and was defeated
by Senator Foraker's amendment to
the statehood bill, one argument
against compulsory union was the rot
tenness of New Mexican politics and
the aversion of Arizona to union With
it's neighbOr under such conditions
If any confirmation of Arizonas Tea-
sons for Directing had been ne"ded,
they are furnished by an interview Civ
en- out Wednesday by Loeb, in whicn
he quotes Judge Rodey of New Mexico
as saying that New Mexico was the
worst, from the standpoint of discord,
intrigue and crookedness, that could
be found in any of the dependencies or
territories of the United States
Judge Rodey was formerly a delegate
from New Mexico, and is now a fed
eral judge in Porto Rico, so he may be
accepted as fair Republican authority,
speaking through the presidents sec
rotary But if his statement is true,
as Loeb thinks, how about the presi-
dents position on statehood? The
worst is going pretty strong when
the whole range of dependencies and
territories is i'm comparison; and the
comparison makes a heavy Indictment
against the presidents attitude toward
Arizona-an attitude based solely on
political considerations and a desire to
prevent the election of Democratic
senators from Arizona.
In view of Judge Rodey's opinion. the
refusal of Arizona to accept statehood
at the cost of union with her neighbor
can be understood by everybody. Ter
ritorial government is not altogether
desirable for American citizens: but
territorial government would certainly
be preferable to statehood with such
conditions as ROdey described among
his own people.
