piano and pianist rise up from a plat

Judge Parkcr's Conclusions

Judge Alton b. Parker, democratic
candidate for president Tin 1904, issued
the following statement last Saturday
on the result of the election: q,
while believe that Judge Taft will
ably and conscientionsly perform the
duties of the presidency, a,n neverthe,
less of the opinion that the election of
Mr.. Bryan would have been far better
for the country. < 8.
I'VE need to quote an oft-used ex-
preston, a change of measures and of
men, this including the enforcement of
existing law against its yiolaters instead
of prosecuting the latter's innocent
victims in the opening of the govern
ment books by experts not afraid to
criticise; the practice of economy in the
expenditure of public funds, no longer
even promised by the republican party;
$he revision of the tariff by substan-
tial reduction of duties; and the enact!
ment of a federal corrupt practice act
still more drastic than the New York
kact. >."-,

ais the money of those who enjoy special
privileges holds the balance of power.
This factor the republican party will
not eliminate, for thereby it would
commit suicide. :" =.
| Again, the trend toward socialism
unmistakable as it is among all classes
is due in no small measure to the pa
ternalism of the republican party in
protecting and enriching the favored
few. From the existing evils of domi-
nant republicanism and the threatened
evils of socialism the careful business
man, the Industrious laborer and the
prudent producer must all seek a shield
and protector and naturally must turn
to the democratic party. 49,.

we should not he discouraged 1t is
apparent as we scrutinize the source
and volume of the support of the as
sistant republican parties, viz: the
populist and independence parties, that

said Judge Parker in conclusion, 1--WE
have united party. Once again there
is disposition among it's membsrs to
reason together and work together for
the public good. We should, therefore,
congratulate Mr.. Bryan and ourselves
on this improvement of the general
party conditions under his candidacy

strengthening of the party for the

"Victor Rosewater must have
sworn in several tongues and dialects
when one of his bright young men
jumped on a plank of the Republican
platform under the delusion chat it
was an extract from one of Bryan's
speeches." says the Atlanta Georgian.
Yet why censure the "bright young
man.? 1t would take a chart, COM
pass and very ancient mariner in
deed, to detect any difference between
the platforms of the two parties or
the speeches Of their leaders. The
day of the cold war horse" is over
and in his stead there ramps upon
the political stage the Buster Brown
private secretary type, astride a Big
Stick and equipped with a card in
dex. The people have proven so gull
lible these many years that talent is
wasted-hence the graphophone, Tie
photograph, the typewriter and any
other old machine is deemed sufficient
to satisfy all campaign purposes.
With platforms alike, nominees both
weakly aping "my policies" and
stereotyped oratory of the same
brand, what wonder that a bewildered
Young clerk should get all balled up?

feet It is now being argued that
Judge Pardee was without the juris-
diction Of his circuit at the time he
signed the order, for which reason it
should be void and the rates, there
fore, put back on the old basis. If
it is found that Judge Pardee had no
right to grant the order as he did, the
recently advanced rates will be re-
duced so far as this State is con
cerned, and this long before the ques-
ton of the "reasonableness" Of the
increased rates could possibly be
threshed out before the commission.

a WORD TO THE STAGE.

Sunday reminded the Latter-day Saints
of many important truths which for
their own benefit, they should consider
and endeavor to govern themselves Sy.
They will gain both physically and 9TH
erwise by 50 doing.
one Of the admonItions given had
reference to the introduction of object
ional features on the stage. "Of late
years President Smith said, 1T has
been common for actors to light cigars
and cigarettes on the stage. TO me,
such practice is an insult to Latter
day Saints. If i had boys growing up l
would not want them to attend thea

were taking place. l think, too there
actresses which are just as bad as
smoking on the stage.
This is a very timely topic. Per
haps iii ITO other city are thcaters and
amusement halls more generally, not
to say franticaly, patronized than
here. The performances necessarily
leave an Impression on the characters
of the spectators, for good or for evil.
They should. therefore, be OF All clevat-
ing character. Smoking, drinking.
profanity. and language that is barred
from polite society should not be adj

the subtle influences that too often
are employed on the stage to make

Should be excluded. The stage should
be a help, not a temptation. 1t should
inspire good. noble sentiments and
acts. and not throw wide open the gates
to Inferno, 1t Is, perhaps, too mucn.

local organizations can do great deal
toward the publication Of the stage,
whenever and wherever they appear,
