speech by Senator Tillman, filed
with denunciation Of the. president,
secretary OF the treasury and depart
ment Of Justice, Of financiers and
captains Of industry. 4 was the chief
subject Of interest In the senate to-
day. His remarks were based on his
resolutions directing an investigation
by the committee on finance of the
recent bond issues and for the pur-
pose Of clearing the present financial
string ency by calling on the commit
tee on finance Of the senate to3recom-
mend measures for the immediate re-
I lief Of the country. He desired to
have this resolution considered at
once but in the absence of Senator

on finance, it was allowed to go over.
The house session was limited TO
twenty-five minutes and little bust
ness beyond the introduction Of bills
was transacted. The speaker an

8mittee on appropria tions. Both

| oGAN'S DEEP WOE.

There will be deep grief IN Logan
when the good people of that city learn
that Hans A. Petersen is ineligible TO
the office of Judge of the Juvenile court.
Pedersen's own grief will doubtless be
tempered by the thought that no fool
ish constitutional provision can take
from him the office of justice of the
peace, which he has filled, doubtless
with profit to himself and certainly
with advantage to the men charged
with violation of the election law last
fall
When Stake President W. e. Park
inson and his counselor, A NJ Israel
son, were charged with taking official
ballots of Mount Sterling precinct prior
TO the election last fall, the hearing
was had before Justice of the Peace
Hans A. Petersen. Petersen was him
self a candidate for legislative hOnors
and in consequence peculiarly situated
TO conduct such a hearing. But a lit
tie thing like his own self-interest
wouldn't interfere with his official rec
titude. He knew he was all right; so
did the prosecuting attorney and the
defendants. The hearing was had; the
story agreed upon by all the parties
told and Hans dismissed the case, de-
Gliding with the wisdom of a Caliph of
Bagdad that Parkinson and Isrealson
didn't mean any harm. How could
they, when one of their purposes was
to effect the election of Hans himself?
In due course Hans was elected by an
admiring constituency, forced into line
by the method mentioned, and others
just as reprehensible. Had he been de-
feated he would be eligible to the Of
fee of Juvenile judge, a place Of high
honor. and besides carrying an annual
salary of $500, an amount not to be
sneezed at by a man of thrift such as
Hans is. Having been elected and hav-
ing served in the legislature Hans is
barred, at least from the emoluments
of the office-the $500 per annum-and
stitutional provision is the cause of this
untoward situation. It reads:
mo member of the legislature. dur
ing the term for which he was elected,
shall be appointed or elected to any
civil office of profit under this state.
which shall have been created, or the
emoluments of which shall have been
increased during the term for which he
was elected"
1t is true the attorney general asserts
that Pedersen's appointment is legal,
but the lawyers of the state hold other
wise, and there is little doubt that the
supreme court will so decide, if Peder-
sen attempts to take the office, for the
question of his eligibility will with GER
tainty be raised. and with equal GER
tsinty be decided against him.
Logan wept when it's pride, the Agri-
cultural college, was made the prize in
a Republican political game How that
city will lament when Apostle Hans, its
premier citizen, the hope of its youth.
is forced to forego either the Office
of Juvenile judge or the salary?

HUGE M'NALLT's PROMOTION.

Judge ]. c. McNally's promotion from
the consulship at Liege, Belgium, to a
similar post at Marking, China, will be
welcome news to his many friends in
Salt Lake. Judge McNally came to Salt
Lake during Mr.. Cleveland's last ad-
ministration to be probate judge of Salt
Lake county. This was in the terrific
rial days. and after the state was ad-
mitted Judge McNally engaged in min
ing in Tintic for a time. During the
campaign OF 1896 he went east, and
after McKinley's election the judges
friends were panied to learn that he
had been a supporter of the Ohioan.
Soon after McKinley's Inauguration
McNally was rewarded with a consular
post in South America. He has since
remained in the consular service, and
has constantly risen. His present post
is a good one, but the Marking office is
much better, both in point of oppor-
tunity and salary. Judge McNally's
friends in Salt Lake long since have
forgiven him his sudden and, at the
time, inexplicable change in politics.
They had to forgive him, for are we
not taught in Utah that changing ones
politics is the least of all offenses?
