IITAH AT SACRAMENTO.

To send the Ogden choir to the Ma
tional Irrigation congress and insure
the splendid representation of Utah
there, Hon. Fred ]. Kiesel guaranteed
expenditures amounting to about SO, 900.
OF that sum he has raised by popular
subscription $500, and the CONNER
cial club of Salt Lake has undertaken
to secure the remaining $500. A COM
mittee has the matter in charge, and
it goes without saying that the amount
will be forthcoming.
As a matter of state pride and be-
cause of the opportunity it affords to
show a great organization the remark
able achievements in Utah in an ar
tistic as we'll as material way, The
Herald urges a prompt and liberal re-
Spouse to the call for subscriptions.
Whether the committee gets around to
you or not, see that the Commercial
club gets your subscription promptly.
It goes to a good cause and will be
worth more to the community than
almost any other investment for a
public affair that could be mentioned.

public affair that could be mentioned.
IRON HAND AND VELVET GLOVE.
Secretary Taft. in a speech at Okla
homa City, departed from his set adj
dress on national issues long enough to
advise the voters Of the new state to
reject the constitution adopted by the
constitutional convention for the new
state and depend upon the next con-
gress to pass a new enabling act.
Ordinarily the outsider who butts
into a local political situation is a lit
tie tactfuI about interference with 10
cal affairs, but the secretary seemed to
have a mission on his mind and deliv-
cred himself with remarkable freedom.
The burden of his plant was that the
constitutional convention had so ar
ranged things that If the constitution
were adopted by the people, it would
make it possible for the Democrats TO
have the legislature and two United
States senators, even If the state itself
were Republican by large majority.
After he had given this reason for
opposition no other explanation of his
attitude was necessary, but it comes
with remarkably poor grace from an
administration that tried to couple
Arizona with New Mexico in order that
the Republicans might have a chance
to submerge the Democratic majority
of Arizona. If anybody ever ignored
the equities of representation in order
to gain partisan advantage the Repub-
lican party has done it; and waving
that bar to complaint from Taft, 1T is
none of his business in Oklahoma what
the requirements of the constitution
are so long as they represent the
wishes of the majority and comply with
the law of the land.
He was extremely careful in his talk
to disclaim any authority to speak for
Roosevelt, but the disclaimer cuts lit
tie figure in view of the presidents
known hostility to the Oklahoma con-
stitution and the unofficial threat that
the state would be denied admission by
Withholding the presidential approval
unless some notifications were made
to suit the executives views. That is
to say a whole people are to be re-
fused admission to statehood in spite
of congressional action solely because
the president does not approve of their
charter law drawn in conformity to the
enabling act and containing nothing
that is not entirely within the grant.
Logically the president has as much
right to draw up g constitution himself
for a new state as he has to suspend
admission in a case like Oklahoma's.
His only duty under the law is TO see
that the charter complies with the act
Of congress providing admission; right
there his power ends, and right there
Mr.. Tafts interference becomes OBJ
noxious. AS the next friend of the
president and heir apparent to the
throne, his speech contains more than
the advice of a partisan; 1t is a threat
that if the constitution is adopted the
hope of statehood will be deferred by
the chief executive. And a threat I'M
der such circumstances is little less
than a cowardly attempt to coerce q
people deemed worthy of admission to
statehood.

Just let any old train robber who doubts me try t1 hold up this train; it viii be the sorriest days work he has ever done"
 Mr Whitehouse was of the same mind as Senator McCarren. He too. was man of peace who would exile the cove long enough to teach an am bilious road agent a lesson. even though the lesson might more profit able tc the undertaken than to Ihc i'JI agent.

PAT M'CARRtN AS
 A BANDIT BUSTER
Some of the Hitherto Unwritten His tory of His Adventures in the Wilds of Arizona.

Readers of The Republican will re- member the visit here in November of Senator Pat McCarren and party of New York, who were guests of Hon. l. T. Stoddard during their stay in the Territory IL was supposed that the news features of the trip had been pretty well covered by the local press at the time, but it seems now that the real incidents were not given out then for for publication. MT. Stoddard yes terday received copy of the New York Herald of January 6. which contains the unwritten history of that expedi- ton. The article is illustrated. shows pictures of Mir. Stoddard's residence. Canyon, and others, but what most in teres;s is the story. as follows:
 When Senator Patrick H. McCarIen returned recently to Brooklyn from his trip to Arizona he talked freely of the political situation and the vast possi- bilities of progress that lie latent in the West. but of "The Great Tran Robbery in which he figured he had not a word to say. That story will be told here for the first time
 No fault can be found with the sen ator for making no mention of the thrilling episode of his Western trip. for in 1t he does not shine as a hero Yet in chronicling the facts naught shall be exaggerated and naught set down in malice. It shall be plain. un- vanished tale-the veiacious narrative of a historian who loves the truth too
 
 "On the trip to Arizona Senator Me Carren was one of a party made up Of former Senator William H. Reynolds, former Sheriff William J. Buttling. Samuel Stewart Whitehouse, William Edwards. Samuel Gumperts. Edward Johnson. William Johnson and l. T. Stoddard.
 None of the party was out for bear Not one of them had a thought in his mind of emulating President Roosevelt, and their visit to the great Southwest had in 1t no menace for the wild animals that still find an abiding place there.
 Senator McCarren would rather sit in a stuffy room with a few trusted political friends. and plan some DdI " cup q FAdl AlAeill HlAOuAdtA NAAN best rifle that was ever made and beat through the mountain like the Presi- dent after big game. It was a quiet, pastoral existence he had planned to lead all the time he was within the confines of Arizona, and often, as the train bore him thither, he expatiated to his companions on the beauty of the simple life" and the superiority of the man who devotes his days and nights to Herbert Spencer over the noisy person in buckskin trousers who goes about. revolver in each hand, shooting up the town"
 That the senator was made the cen tral figure in a great train robbery far more realistic than the mimic one at Coney Island was due to the fact that former Senator Reynolds possesses an acute sense of humOr. In planning and executing the train robbery he was designer. stage carpenter and one of the chief actors.
 Tt was natural that as the train crossed the frontier into Arizona the talk should drift to the possibilities of robbery and the achievements of the James boys. the Dalton brothers and other notable gentlemen of the road who evaded hard manual labor by hold
