Might Have Gone Out.

An Irishman who was travelling in
England for dry goods Arm was once
showing line Of sample dress goods
to merchant who was woefully slow
in making up his mind, says the
Strand.
He handled them and rehandled
them. until the commercial traveller
was at his patience end. Finally the
merchant asked If the goods shown
were fashionable.
They were when / first began to
show them to you," replied the trav-
eler, but I'll be hanged If can tell
you now"
1t is said that the buyer was SC
pleased with this answer that he par
doned the rudeness Of it and became
a regular customer.

1t is admitted that Stanford
White was an educated, brainy man,
while Kearns is an ignorant uncouth
boor, and can never be anything else.
The morality or immortality OF EN-
Senator Cannon can also be likened to
that of Stanford White. There isn't
another man in these western states
who has so nasty and vile a record
as Ex-senator Cannon He has been
a prisoner in nearly every county Jail
in the state for offenses ranging from
assault with intent to commit murder
to stealing diamonds from prostitute.
He has brought trouble 10 probably
more women than his confrer, Kearns,
and in drunken and beastial debanches
is rather the superior of Tom. 1t very
i'll becomes such pair as these, who
have the effrontery to pose as cham
pions of the purity OF the American
home, to upbraid anyone for anything
no matter what his faults may be.
There is a fairly complete record of
Kearns and Cannon. Names and
dates and proofs are not wanting
They can be published, but they
wouldn't look we'll in print 1t would
injure them as leaders of the great

form.

prayer. 1t was unusual in its place,
but every governor needs what the
Colorado executive asked for in the
way of grace to do his work and
sincere desire to promote the well
fare of the people
But since then the chaplain of the
senate has discovered on the part OF
the governor certain acts which he
thinks do not coincide with the theory
of divine inspiration He thinks, for
example, that the governor is alto
gether too Jealous in behalf of the
brewers and liquor dealers; so he has
started campaign of prayer on his
own behalf. He prayed his regrets
that sinful men have fallen so far
from their place as to use the plat
forms of church and party as a means
to get offices, forgetting pledges
when they have attained their desires.
1t is impossible to gauge the balance
of spiritual and temporal weapons
that each side has at its command,
and speculation is hushed until the
Colorado politicians have been heard
from.--State Journal.

We have already referred in some
small degree to the reputation and
character of ex-Senators Kcarns and
Cannon, the controlling factors. OF
the Tribune. Their character can be
mentioned in the singular number with
propriety because so near akin. Upon
them rests, in great measure, the re-
sponsibiity for the policy OF the
Tribune. The president of the Trib-
une company, however, is MIR. David
Keith It is fair to presume that he
has considerable financial interest in
that paper In fact, the articles OF
incorporation show that his interest
in the gutter sheet is equal to that OF
Kearns. and he therefore cannot es-
cape the responsibility for its policy,
if it has any. For the sake of cour-
teSy, we Will Call us dtldSh vi MI
Armstrong policy" and Mr.. Keith
you can't escape the responsibility,
but do you really think, Mr.. Keith,
that you are the man to cast the first
stone? You have somewhat of
past yourself, but lou are much
better man in every respect than some
of those you are associated with, and
who use you as a cloak of response
bility to cover their misdeeds. Still,
there are episodes in your career
which are not exactly creditable.
Take for instance, that divorce case.
Viewed from any standpoint it is not
creditable, especially SO from the
standpoint of your former wife.

POLITICS, BUSINESS AND
PRAYER.

To test the efficacy OF prayer, Tyn-
dali suggested that of two hospitals
the patients of one be prayed for by
the nurses, doctors and attendants,
while those of the ether be given
material treatment only. The result
of this experiment is not in evidence.
But in Battle Creek, Michigan, there
is sanitarium conducted by the
Seventh Day Adventists, where pray
ers, compulsory to employees, elective
to patients, are a regular daily order.
Recently a rival sanital ium was start
ed there by worldly person, who
said he proposed to adopt the meth
DDS OF the older institution in every
respect except one: He was going
to "cut out the prayers" The new
hospital failed, and its ruined walls are

The Tribune's personal attack on
Mr.. Armstrong, editor of the Inter
Mountain Republican, and his family,
is in line with the Tribune's usual
policy. When Mr.. Armstrong came
to Salt Lake City to edit the Repub-
lican, the Kearns gang did their ut
most to induce him to join their
crowd. They, with Ben Haywood as
chief spokesman, told him all the lies
and ISLANDERS they could think of
about the republicans of Utah and all
the falsehoods they could think of
regarding the purity and disinter-
ested patriotism OF themselves and
their glorious AmcriKearns party.
They tried to cajole and reason with
him, and held out hopes OF reward if
he would only join their Sanity CD
party. The game didn't work on
Armstrong. He soon discovered
their rottenness and duplicity, and
would have no dealings with them.
They failed to fool or control him,
and then in strict accordance with
their practice, they began to abuse
both him and his family. We, how
ever, fancy the ours are barking up
the wrong tree when they tackle
Armstrong.

To the Editor of Public Ledger:
| notice that DR.. W. NJ. Paden, OF
Salt Lake City, is here in the East
trying to create sentiment against
Senator Knox for defending the con-
stitutional right of Senator Smoot OF
At meeting of the Presbyterian
ministers in the Witherspoon Build
ing, Monday, Doctor Paden said:
1--WE acknowledge the constitutional
right of Smoot in the Senate" Then
lie called Senator Knox a pettifogger
because he would not break his oath
as a Senator to uphold the Constitu
ton by voting to deprive Senator
Smoot of his constitutional rights.
1t was Doctor Paden and the Rev.
John l.. Leiich who started the
Smoot investigation. To create
sentiment against Senator Smoot and
to get names of petitioners to
unseat him, Doctor Paden, in Novem-
Der, 1908 stated in the Philadelphia
and other large Eastern papers that
Senator Smoot wwas an enemy to the
Government; that he had taken an
oath to avenge the blood of Joseph
and Hyrum Smith on he Gentiles Of

That the Tribune is being pretty
badly hurt is evidenced every day by
its squeals. 1t seems to have particu-
lar animus against Leroy Armstrong,
the editor of the Inter Mountain Re-
publican. Since ever Mr. Armstrong
came to Salt Lake The Tribune and
its evening edition, The Telegram, has
made a dirty personal fight upon him
more by innuendo that direct state
ments until Wednesday, when the first
named sheet made 4 straight personal
attack upon Mr. Armstrong and his
family We had not the pleasure of
Mr.. Armstrong; acquaintance prior
to his coming to Salt Lake, little
over year ago, but we can say with
out fear of successful contradiction
that since then he has conducted him
self as a gentleman in every respect.
Whatever Mr. Armstrong; past may
have been, and we know nothing
about it, we have not the slightest
hesitation in stating that in COMPARE
son with the past and present lives
of Ex-senator Kearns, the principal
owner of the Tribune, and Ex-Sena-
tor Frank J. Cannon, the editor of
the Tribune, Mr.. Armstrong; record
stands out as pure and spotless. We
are not aware that Mr.. Armstrong
ever committed murder and became
a fugitive from justice and for years
sailed under an assumed name and fol-
lowed the calling of a meal ticket
prize fighter. Ex-senator Kearns did
all three Ex-senator Kearns' moral
life in every respect is about as black

been the cause OF trouble for
more young girls than will ever be
known. Stanford White has been
