ings Of David l., Murdoch in a com.
muncation IN the Herald of Sunday
last. He finds that American officials Of
the city are deeply culpable, bringing
disgrace aud shame on the city, "rather
concerned in something as 10 which the
stigma of iobbcry, Doodle, or graft is
more or less concerned than do the
right thing; and that they are "lackng
IN every element of proper manhood
and interest for the people s welfare :"
Naturally, one inquiries what has
caused this ebullition; what it is all
about And searching out Mr. Muir

II is bad enough 10 employ language
like that against offenders who actually
commit criminal or reprehensible acts.
To use II against people who have done
nothing whatever, and have shown no
disposition Mt all to do the thing that
Mr.. Murdoch objects to, is a peculiar
| form of atrocious abuse for which we
can imagine no excuse or palliation.
The facts as TO the Warm Springs are
that American party men are the ones
most active against the applications
which Mr.. Murdoch condemns No ono
would imagine this, however, from
what Mr.. Murdoch says. The Ameri

opposed it. And yet Mr.. Murdoch is
making his nasty plea on the PROPOSE

THE KIDNAPERs SENTENCED.

The kldnapers of the Whitla boy got
from the court what they descrved-the
man going to jail for life and the wo.
man practically tho same, for a twenty
five years sentence, with heavy fine
and costs, amounts to a sentence for
life.
But while this is true, and while both
Boyle and his alleged wife (who was
known to many in Salt Lake, got what
WAS their due, there is a feeling in the
public mind that there is something
covered up, that this whole story has
not been told. When this kidnapped
boys father was confronted with the
woman in Cleveland, the kilograms gave
decidedly the impression that the two
knew each other well, and that there
was some relation between them. Then,
at the trial, both Boyle and the woman
wanted to tell what they called the
whole story; they wanted to implicate
others.
1t may be, of course, that this desire
was malicious. and that the story they
would tell was false. But it was curl
Gus. at least that the ATTORNEYS on both
sides should strenuously join IN sup.
pressing the kidnapers, and would not
allow either of them TO talk. Natural
ly, the prosecution would want it all
told; wonld be desirous of probing the
case 10 the bottom. But here, it ap-
pears, the prosecution was not. willing
10 do this. good many people will
ask why. and will think there was solue
motive other than the clear pursuit Of
justice and the application of the law,
at the bottom of that refusal
The general effect of it all on the
public mind must be that there yet re-
mains much to tell. Boyle promises to
give the name of third party. as soon
as he reaches the penitentiary at Pitts
burgh But he may be prcvcntcd; and
even If he does give name. there Will
be no means of testing what he says, as
there were in the court where his of
fered revelations were suppressed. That
was the place, and then was fbe time.

MIR cHoATE ON RoosEvELTIsM

Perhaps the most noteworthy critic
of the spirit of Rooscvcltism who mas
made his views public, is Mr.. Joseph II.
Choatc, our former Emhassador al Lon
don. who presided al the dinner to At
torncv General Wickersham in New
York City on April 30th. We have al
ready referred to that dinner, and TO
the spcech made on the occasion by Mr.,
Wickershsm. which has been so various.

trary way Of governing by whlms and
impulses instead of by law, had gone
by But Mr.. Choate S indirect refer
encc to the happily past administration
was so direct that mistaking 1T is quite
impossible Mr.. Choatc said in part:
Under Mr. Wickersham justice will not

the judiciary. no criticism of the one by

1t was no doubt this sort Of talk at
that dinner which gave color TO the in
depreciation, justified also by what Mr..
Wickersham himself said. that the lat
ter's speech was the notice to the coun-
try that with the passing of the Roosc-
Welt administration the Roosevelt meth
DDS had also passed away. And in so
far as the Attorney Generals speech
was an assurance of this, it was cor
daily welcomed by the lovers of the
Republic who understand the principles

Of progress in business, in city making.

There will be we'll along toward a
thousand attendants, and the gathering
will be worth seeing
II will strike the keynote Of progress,
Of continued public improvements, and
of redemption of the people from priest
~ dominance aud oppression in politics,

IT will be mighty outpourinG of
libertyloring voters in the interest of
equal treatment TO all, special privileges
TO none.
1t will demand the righteous and
Just enforcement of the criminal stat
utes upon all who transgress them, and
deny the right Of any, under any pre-
tense or cloak whatever, to form them
selves into a class that shall be in the
criminal class and vet immune from

It will demand liberty for all, with
out exception OF class or creed; yet
liberty under the law, with the ac'
acknowledgement that the law is supreme
over all. and must he obeycd.

ELDER MORRIS NO BRUTUs.

On Sunday, at the Tabernacle, Elder
Ncphi l.. Morris, president of the Salt
Lake stake of Zion. made an address
in which he omitted his usual pro-
hibi,ion Hypocrisy, but did not fa'l TO
show his resentment at inc Smoot po-
litical machine which was his spcclai
mark for revilcmcnt last winter. lie
denounced the ''political bosses and ma
chimes that ride over the people,
thwart their will, undertake TO control
Them in selfish ends and evil interests,
and usurp their liberties. All OF when
is rather refreshing, coming as 1T does
from n man who was openly and notorl-
ouslv guilty of the same offense under
ecclesiastical guisc. last fall. He hm'
self was guilty OF precisely that same
invasion, rs an ccclesiastic, that nc
charges upon the political bosses and
machines; and it was only when ne
found that hc could not control the ac-
tions of those bosses and machines that
ne assailed them.
Elder Morris worked in entire har-
mony with tho political ring here until
he found that he was not manipulating
it as he had thought he was doing, lie
openly, even ostentatiously, made his
church authority an authority IN poil-
tics; he usurped authority over the peo-
nlo in their will and their liberties,
even TO the extent Of denounclng those
Democrats as well as others-who re-
fused to vote the Republican ticket
here last fall. ms 'traitors TO their
church - It i'll becomes Elder Morris to
rail against political bosses and ma
chimes; for no possible activity of those
bosses and machines here is so danger
Gus and menacng to popular liberty as
the ecclesiastical bossism, usurpaton,
factor Of last fall.
The denunciatiou of political bosses
and machines is proper and timely. Ii
is real danger TO popular government,
subversive Of the will and the, interests
Of the people, substituting therefor the
will of an irresponsible boss and his
selfish ambition and greed. But even
more destructive of popular institutions
and of liberty is the ecclesiastical
usurpation and priestly domination
which Elder Morris seeks so actively TO
establish. And when he rails at politl-
cal bosses and machines. he invites the
inevitable retort that lie is himself a
far worse offender than any mere politi-
cal boss, and the machine that he would
set up infinitely more crushing than any
ordinary political machine.

in this matter. And in milking 1t as a

missionaries sued arc the Rev. William
Morrison and the Rev. W. III. Sheppard,
who are members of the American
Presbyterian mission. The defendants
charge that "the officials levy upon the
natives oppressive taxes to be paid in
rubber; that whole villages, including
women and children, are impressed by
the soldiers for gathering the rubber;
that they are often compelled to travel
many miles to the rubber forests and
sleep there for more than a week under
unhealthy conditions; that they arc
often cruclly punished for failure 10
fulfill the taxes imposed. and that a
larger portion of their time is taken for
gathering these taxes, and they are un-
able TO cultivate crops and raise food
necessary for their support
Tho company denies these charges,

A KONGO LIBEL CASE.

The whole world will be interested in
the trial of the American missionaries
at Leopoldville, Kongo Free State, for
libel. The charges those missionaries
have made against the inhuman treat
mcnt of the natives, the driving of
them by whippings and mutilations to
bring in more and more rubber, have
been read throughout the civilized
world. They have been denied Official
ly, and affirmed and reaffirmcd, some
times by those who had nothing to do
with tho missionaries.

rifving enough TO have those massacrcs

Doubtless the signs of the awakening
wrath of Christian peoples at those
massacres arc the direct cause of the

most significant of these signs is the
