was unwarrantedly appropriated. It
prefers the title "Sergcant." All of
which is matter of complete indiffer-
encc TO the editor of The Tribune. Mill.
tary titles have no particular applica.
bility in civil life. But it may be well
enough to say that the editor of The
Tribune has never appropriated any
title whatever, but with respect to the
title Of "Colonel' has expressly re-
pudiated it whenever the matter came
up for conversation, and has at all times
expressly directed that it should be
omitted from The Tribune in connec-
tion with his name. Titles of this kind
often accrue TO persons without their
knowledge or consent, Just as in this
case.

something very damaging from report
made by the editor of The Tribune when
ne was president Of the Board Of Edu-
cation of this city. Well, why not print
it? What is tho occasion for delay2 If
there is anything in that report that is
q fair subject of criticism, or if the do
ings Of the school board at that time
are pertinent TO the present school cam
paign, by all means let us have the de-
tails, and let it be pointed out wherein
those things apply, or need considera
tion now.
In the meantime, however. the odium
of bringing in tho control Of the schools
as a subject for political "spoils" rests
distinctly upon tho Smoot "Moutb,"
and this while it undertakes to cham
pIon the partisan nonpartisanship of the
church party. And in that Juggling IN
of "the spoils" it is very likely that
we have disclosure of what the editor
Of the "Mouth' considers to be the
real question involved in the school
election

soUIRMING "NoNPARTIsANs. .

The Dcscret News last night in It's
plea against any other partisanship than
its own having control of the schools
saws that The Tribune maintains;
First. that II was the Liberal party in
huence that redeemed the schools OF this
! city from sordid church control;
! secondly, that the main question now
Is whether the church interest shall con-
( tinue to prevail In the schools,
And it holds that these two PROPOSE
tions are mutually destructive. All Of
which is a fine example of the church
! organ reasoning.
The Liberal party took the schools
IN this city, organized them from the
old disorganized condition in which the
city was divided into twenty. ono sepa.
rate school districts, and made n COM
pact, unified school system Of it for the
! city. Then the Liberal party was dis
solved. Between the time of the
dissolution Of that party and the pres
ent, the church has gradually en-
croached upon the schools until it now
has complete control of them. There.
fore, tho two propositions stand pre-
cisely as The Tribune stated them. The
fault In the church organ g reasoning
is in not allowing for the change that
occurred after the dissolution of the
Liberal party. However, since the News
meant 10 be dishonest also in this mat.
ter, it will probably consider the disso-
luton OF the Liberal party and the
gradual encroachment Of the church

obtained the control, u matter OF no
consequence.
The church anxiety about retaining
control Of the schools is manifest. 1t
IS no less manifest that in pleading for
the retention Of a control which it has
no right TO possess, it is exhausting
every resource Of energy. Of falsehood,
OF church combination, false pretensc
bigotry, and wheedling persons whose
support it hopes TO capture in the pres
ent campaign.
Our position in this matter is that the
American party, being the majority OF
the people in this city and being that
portion of the community which is most
interested in and appreciativc of
schools. that portion which knows best
about schools, school management, and
school work, is of right entitled to the
control which 1t seeks That control
would, in fact, be nonpartisan con.
troll; entirely different from the spuri-
Gus noupartisapship which is now urged,
insolently and falsely, in behalf of the
church party. The people OF this city
ought 10 wake up TO the situation and
place the control OF the public schools
in the hands Of the friends Of the
schools, and we believe that they will

THE SCHOOLS AS "sPoILs.'

In all the discussions of the school
question during the present campaign,
the humbug cry oS nonparLisanship
raised by the church partisan people
has been the conspicuous feature. The
complete exposure of this imposture has
caused something of a shifting of the
ground, and IL is DO longer considered
tenable To urge that the church parti.
sans are tie nonpartisans. As a matter
of fact, the public opinion is properly
shifting 10 the proposition, which is the
correct one, that the American control
of the schools is necessary to insure pro-
Gress and genuine nonpartisanship.
IN this shifting OF the ground il is
noteworthy that ''the spoils' is not
usually urged as reason why the parti.
san church adherents should remain in
power. Usually they try TO evade all
mention Of "the spoils'' in connection
with the schools. II has remained, how
ever, for tho Smoot "Mouth' to put
the question Of school control distinctly
and specifically upon the ground of
"the spoils.' Yesterday morning it
came out emphatically on the proposition
that "the spoils' was what was the sub
icc- of contention in the present school
cal. paigu This is a depraved view to
take of the question. but then that is
depraved "Mouth -; so nothing bet.
ter was 10 be expected from il. We are
satisfied that the good people of this
81 tNr oh al ,1s
that ''the spoils are proper subject
for contention with respect 70 the pub
lie schools, or any election IN conncc-
tion herewith.
In reinforcing its "spoils" idea in
connection with the schools, the
Mouth" brings up tho appointment of
James Devine TO bo fire chief, and says
that "Mayor Bransford asked the edi
tor OF The Tribune mis- opinion on the
selection, and the editor of The Tribune
heartily commended Devine for fire
chief" Which Is absolutely untrue
The editor Of The Tribune had no talk
with Mayor Bransford in connection
with the appointment of Mr. Devine as
chief of the fire department. And while
The Tribune opposed the confirmation
of Chief Devine, it did so on the specific
grounds stated.
The "Mouth' also claims that The
Tribune editor gives himself unquali.
fled endorsement while n member of
the school board. This also is wholly
untrue. The most that he has said in
this matter was that while he was a
member of the board that body did the
best il could; his statement was with
respect to the body as whole, and not
with respect TO him personally.
The "Mouth" suggests that The
Tribune editor was in some way Gre
moved or ''bourced' from the
school board. Well, if being elected.
reelected, and reelected again, prac-
tically without opposition, serving to
the ond OF his terms, and positively
refusing to be candidate again, is
being bounced" then so be it; but
an extraordinary definition of the word
is thereby created

much exercised abol. Tie ti.Ic u

clans to kneel to him for the favor of
his consent to exercise their rights as
citizens; he has forced political nomi-
necs 70 humble themselves before him
TO obtain the influence of his power in
their behalf There is scarcely an
activity in the life OF this intermopn-
tain region that he has not mcddled
with in somo way or another. As the
membership and wealth of the church
increase, so does the power of the
despot grow. and the more this accumu-
lating tyranny is applied to the mass
Of the people, the farther away from
the teachings of its founder does the
church stray. Polygamy has been add
ed to church doctrine since tho days of
Joseph Smith, and this, together with
the numerous other evils that have
crept into the organization, is bound
finally to bring about its downfall un'
less eliminated. In fact, it was Joseph
Smith, Jr., the founder Of the Mormon
church, who prophesied that polygamy
alone would destroy the fabric if not
speedily abandoned,
There may be some cbuckling among
the hierarchs Of Utah that they are
still in safe position; and there may
be reason to believe that their power
will continue to be built up TO a great
er degree than at present; but continued
iniquity and wider departure from the
original faith will one day bring the
Mormon people to their scnses-and
then the crash viii be an awful one,
and the work of tbrco.quarters of
century will crumble in an hour.

to the effect that this city is not Justly
treated by the railroads in the matter
of its freights. 1t is clear case that
If the railroads can afford to haul goods
at given rate from the Atlantic coast
TO the Pacific coast they can afford TO
haul at that rate or even less TO Salt
Lake. And that is the goal towards
which Salt Lake shonld work; getting
an equality Of rates with the rates to
the coast. There is nothing either in
theory or practice to conflict with this
proposition. Mr.. Kindel IS putting the
case that Salt Lake is entitled TO as
favorable commodity rates as Spokane.
