Provo, Oct. 10.-In a delirium OF enthu-
siasm thousands of cheering voters noti-
fled Jesse William Knight thai he was
to be the next governor of Utah. The for
NAL notification was made tonight in the
theatre, which was packed to the doors
with a crowd that also surrounded the
theatre and filled the street. Those in
this crowd were too far away to hear,
but not too far away to cheer, which they
did long and enthusiastically, taking their
cues from the more fortunate auditors
who were close enough to hear the speak
ers. The affair took on more Of the as
pect of an Inauguration than a nOtifica-
ton.
Preceding the notification meeting a
crowd of more than 1,Oo0 people marched
from the theatre to the beautiful home of
Jesse William Knight. Two, bands head
ed the procession, and every one in the
parade carried a tOrchlight-
Red fire was burned in the path of the
parade, and the sight was one that could
not fail to inspire patriotic enthusiasm.
The home of Mr.. knight was draped in
flags and bunting. AS the crowd ap-
preached the residence they cheered long
and wildly. The next governor OF Utah
came down from the porch of his resi-
dence TO receive the visitors. At thai
moment cannon were fired, skyrOcket-
and Roman candies shot off, horns were
footed, and the entire thrOng Joined il
cheering. the combined noises making al
uproar that was deafening.
To add TO the illumination, hundreds OF
the knight followers carried boxes anC
lumber with which they made a huge bon
fire in front of the residence.

MIR. Knight in Demonstration.

Mr.. Knight In Demonstration.
Seized with the spirit of the occasion.
the next governor OF Utah, approaching
his cheering constituents, took an Ameri-
can flag from its place in the decorations
and waved it, This increased the cheer
ing and shouting for knight TO such a
mighty sound that il might almost have
been heard in Salt Lake by Mr.. Spry.
bringing with il a message OF Democratic
victory, Ominous to the federal machine
and its creatures.
T. II. Fitzgerald of Salt Lake took from
Jesse w. Knight the banner and marched
at the head of the procession. He was
followed by the Ladies G.. A. r. band
of Salt Lake and the Brigham Young
University band of Provo. Then came the
students of Brigham Young university, of
which Mr.. knight is an alumnus. giving
countless "rahs' for Knight. And then
came the rest of the knight supporters.

Wise Ones Got the Seats.

After the enthusiastic crowd. in irregu-
lar formation, had escorted the next gov
ernor to the theatre. il took but a mo-
ment or two to pack the auditorium.
There were many whose foresight was
not dimmed by their enthusiasm who had
foregone the pleasure OF escorting the
candidate to the theatre, that they might
secure desirable seats in the theatre. For
this reason hundreds OF those who took
part in the triumphal procession We're
forced TO stay outside the theatre and
give vent to their yelling patriotism and
enthusiasm in tumultuous and continuous
cheers.
That the meeting would be a great sue
cess was evident long before a speech
was made. 1t was a certainty that the
crowd would be wildly enthusiastic
whether the speeches were good or bad.
But the enthusiasm of the audience did
not surpass that of the speakers. and

dence that fell from the lips of all of
the speakers were gems of oratOry-

Man and His Face.

The New York court of appeals rem
dered an important decision the other
day which has caused considerable
comment The decision is to the eff
feet that every person, irrespective of
sex. color, nationality or creed, has
proprietary rights to his or her own
face which cannot be infringed upon
or violated with impunity. This de-
cision caused general surprise, as no.
body ever suspected the existence of
such right. The fact that thousands
of persons in all walks of life do not
even own their souls is so generally
known that it was naturally surpris-
ing to hear from good authority that
there is really something not owned
by the trusts, but by the individual
citizens.
The people of New York are in great
luck. Many have faces that are not
worth wrangiing about or that could
even be improved by the use of ham,
mer. but it is gratifying to know that
a mans face-be it as it MAYS still
his own, and he may even control its
Photographic image.

In no case does the mans religious

The Defeat of Berry.

/, Chicago Record-Herald: 1t should
interest the people of this state to
know that Senator Orville F. Berry of
Carthage has failed of reelection.
The senator Is not a great man of giant
intellect and transcendent abilities, but
up to the present time he has played
his game very successfully, his influ-
ence has been distinctly felt, and it has
been bad influence.
He has of late been perhaps the
most conspicuous figure in the notori-
Gus senate combine. In his capacity
as a leader he has endeayored to
thwart the popular will by every
means In his power. Given an impor.
Itant reform measure, it was at once
assumed, with good reason. that Berry
would do his best 10 block it. If by
chance he appeared on the right side
there was much speculation on the
possibility of holding him. ReportS
|crediting him with good intentions
were coupled with suggestions as to
the way in which he should be han

died If anything was actually accom-
plished for the benefit of the public
with his sanction and aid, it would be
polite to recognize and applaud his
service TO the people.
Though power is associated with the
thought of ability, we repeat that Sen
ator Berry is not great man. His sue
cess was that of a shifty politician, and
yet his influence was a factor of real
importance in the senate, and his de-
feat should encourage hopes of great
change for the better. 1t shows that
the forces that have been working for
an Improvement in the character OF
legislators and in the conduct of the
legislature are making great progress,
The people obviously are beginning to
realize that the senate combine was
a misrepresentation clique of office
seekers, whose purposes were wholly
incompatible with progressive legisla-
ton and good government.

Mr.. Bryan's Future.

Chicago Evening Post: William Jen-
nings Bryan in defeat has lost nothing
of that sincere esteem in which we
believe the majority of his countrymen
hold him personally. Bryan, the man,
has won in recent years the good opin-
ion of the people; it is only as presi-
dent that the masses object TO him.
Those who see in three disastrous
campaigns something of the ludicrous
overlook the fact that these campaigns
have had an, undeniable influence upon
the country. Mr. Bryan always has
been the leader of an aggressive oppo-
sition, and in republic an aggressive
opposition is most desirable.
1t may be that for Mr., Bryan is re-
served the fate of those other gifted
Americans. Henry Clay and James G..
Blaine, who, though they never realiz-
ed their life's ambition, left. neverthe-
less, lasting impress upon their
country and aided materially in the
shaping of it's affairs.
Mr.. Bryan, we believe. will always
be a leading and admirable figure in
our national life. He has grown might
lily in the years since unbridled elo-
quence won him presidential nomina
| ton. He was little more than a FIRE
brand then; he is an able man today
with such keen knowledge of affairs,
such magnetic personality and Sc
much ability as an orator that he
seems destined to be always force
that must be reckoned with. Perhaps
destiny has decreed that he shall re-
main private citizen. AS such we be
leve he will command the respect even
of those who have voted against him.
as well as the devotion of those fol
lowers who have voted against him in
three disastrous campaigns. AS to his
future, we suggest that it is both fool
ish and useless to worry about it. Mr.
Bryan is quite able to take care of him
