ROBERTS AND sMooT.

A report from Smoot headquarters
would have people believe that B. H.
Roberts has been sent TO Canada on
church business 10 remain until the
coming campaign is over as a punish
ment for having written a letter point
ing out the injury certain to result to
the state and the church from MIR.
Shoots continuance in active politics.
Tho wish is so evidently father 10 the
report that it will be received with a
large allowance of salt.
Mr.. Roberts, as one of the most
prominent citizens Of the state, holds
certain opinions as 10 the effect of Mr..
Shoots presence in politics. He has
a right 10 express those opinions unless.
as the Smoot combination seems TO
think. no one has a right to hold or
express any opinion without sanction
from the senator himself
Further as a prominent churchman
who has devoted himself TO church
work and has been conspicuous as a
defender of his faith. Mr.. Roberts
holds certains opinions as to the effect
on The church organization of Mr..
Shoots political activity. Thinking as
ne does. that the combination of two
such exalted offices as United States
senator and apostle of the church IN
one personality is dangerous 10 both
state and church-believing this, Mr..
Roberts could do no less than express
his belief.
He has no criticism to offer of Mr..
Smoot personally, nor of his qualifica-
tions for the apostleship; his objection
is solely TO the merging of high eccle-
siastical and civil offices in one man.
and in this objection he has the warm
support of thousands within and with
out the church
Plainly. it was Mr.. Roberts duty
both as a citizen and as a churchman,
TO point out the menace involved in
a continuance of Senator Shoots par
ticipatiOn in politics as the dominating
force in his party: and il is unbeliev-
able that the church authorities should
undertake TO discipline him for SIM
pie statement of his convictions. Such
a course would only serve TO furnish
ammunition TO the bitterest enemies OF
the church, while it could not possibly
stifie the growing sentiment among
Mormons and non-Mormons alike that
MI Roberts vas entirely within the
truth when he made his convincing
statement of the situation as affected
by Senator Shoots political career.

The passing of L. L. Goliath at his
residence yesterday afternoon after a
brief illness. removes from the field of
neers, a quiet. modest, upright man.
who left behind him a clean record of
a long and useful life. In the first flush
of vigorous young manhood, at time
when he stood upon the threshold of
life. MIR Goliath turned his face to-
wards the setting sun and journeyed
westward over the long trail.
That was more than fifty years ago.
and the years that followed were filled
with honorable achievement First he
held his own among the hundreds OF
other young men who had been drawn
by the lure of gold to California He
was prominent among his fellows dur
ing the boom days Of Virginia City.
Nearly forty years ago he came to Salt
Lake City, and made it his headquar-
tiers up TO the day of his death. A
very wide circle of friends will sin
cerely mourn L. L. Goliath, though
their sorrow will be more for them
selves that for him.
As he walked unafraid down into the
valley of the shadow of death he could
say, with the Apostle Paul: Il have
fought a good fight, I have finished my
course, I have kept the faith" If
there is a land where the weary are at
rest, a land where there is no more
toll nor heartache nor disappointments
nor tears. this good man is resting
there, once more united with the life
comrade who preceded him some years
ago and the friends who long since
went into that far country.
To his children Mr.. Goliath has left
the most precious of heritages, an hon
ored name. True to every trust that
was reposed in him here. faithful in
things that were large and small, Civ
ing TO every matter committed to his
keeping the best that was in him. he
passed out of life in full enjoyment OF
the confidence and respect of his fellow
men. Right we'll does he deserve the
rest that has come TO him.

A majority of the property

Another development of Monday
council proceedings was the mayor

He vetoed one ordinance, and the veto
was sustained, because, he said, the
city could not pay its proportion of the
cost. He might truthfully have added
that the city is not in position to pay
its ordinary operating expenses, and
will not be unless a cOmplaisant public
votes bonds enough TO replace the
$3.50 600 deficit from last year-a deficit
due to reckless expenditure of public
funds and councilmanic disregard OF
financial considerations in the manage
