day or even two days would have been
taken to make the trip, and with the
immense expansion Of the business OF

WAS that such ratification should be
made by The legislatures of the States;

though such ratification has heretofore

is no doubt that ratification by the peo

acknowledges his right to govern spir-
itual)y and denies his right 10 govern
temporarily. lies in tho face of God.
That is such an absolute, tyrannicaI
assertion Of temporal authority that 1T
is impossible for any free American
CITIZEN to conccdc it. NO ccclcSiast, no
temporal monarch even, under any
form of civilized government, has the
least right TO assert such personal right
10 govern tho people in their temporal
affairs. The king of Great Britain has
no claim of such right. The Emperor
of Germany does not claim it,. Even the
Car of Russia stops short of the claim
Of temporal power that Joseph T..
Smith asserts for himself The 1'rIb
unc, therefore, in disputing and fight
ing against this claim Of temporal rule
of the ccclcsiasts, is simply opposing
an attempt TO tyrauniZc over the pco-
pic, and TO deprive the individual Of
the American idea OF personal liberty
| and he denial of tho right>Of any per
sonal rule by any ecclcsiast in civil al
fairs. The Tribune simply conforms to
the best traditions Of the Declaration
Of Independence Of the American rev
ohtIon. and Of the guarantees Of the
! Federal Constitution.
| II is n perfectly plain case, there
fore, that whatever strife there is here
is the strife caused by the disloynl
priesthood which assert, and undertake
TO enforce, their right TO despotic
rule that is not enjoyed by my ruler
among civilized mankind Their cf
forts 10 establish their claims TO tom
poral rule and to defy tho laws that
were passed for tho protection of So
cicty, constitute the whole trouble
here. Let the priesthood give up thai
claim to temporal rule, let them submit
chccrfully and Loyalty TO the laws as
other citizens do, and square thci,
lives upon the statutes and upon GooC
moral principles, and the strife vii
cease at once.
The sole question is whether these
ccclcsiasts are going to do what they
of right ought 10 do, or not, If they
insist upon usurpiuG the civil and po
lltlcal control that IN no wise belongs
to them, and persist in living lives " il
defiance Of the laws of God and man,
then necessarily there will be strife
and that strife will be of their making
If they adopt the contrary course, how
ever, square their lives upon morality
and the law. and leave the tempora

In direct line with the business opti-
msm which justly accompanies the
American triumph. is thc response of
the administration in the way Of public
improvements. The Board of Public
Works on Friday night received bids on
upwards of s3OoOOO.0o worth of public
improvements, and will no doubt award
the contracts in due time upon full con
sidcration of the bids.
There are plans proposed for the paw
ing of Main street south for three
blocks, of West Temple street 10 Ninth
South. and of Eleventh South eastward
from Main TO Thirteenth East.
There are projects for the addition
to the city of Federal Heights, which
application will undoubtedly be granted
without delay; also from Waterloo and
Sugar House wards. All these commu
mites utterly reject the opposition idea
that Amerlcanism is bad for Salt Lake.
They all see and are convinced, on the
contrary, that Amcricanism is the very
best possible thing for Salt Lake; and
while the city is under American con
troll they want TO be included within its
! jurisdiction.
No finer tribute to the benefits Of
Americanism could possibly be brought
( forward than the application Of Water
! loo and Sugar House wards TO come
( within the city's boundaries. Hereto
fore and under tho church control,
! those wards were absolutely hostile TO
any idea Of incorporation within the
city. However, seeing the American
benefits, they now present their petit
tions 10 come in.
And the attitude of these wards must
be confessed 10 be significant Of the
feeling Of the other wards in this coun

GOOD FOR SALT LAKE.

thc minds of reasonable, candid men
Of the immense benefit 10 Salt Lake
City of the American administration of
it's affairs. The American party tool:
the city when it was in decadence and
brought il forward until ii is the livcst,
most spirited, and most progressive city
in the Union The victory of the
American party two years ago at the
municipal election, clinchcd the victory
Of 1905. and rcassurcd the people of the
country of the dsenthrallment of the
people here from the paralysis OF re-
dictionary rule, Thercupon investors ap'
peared by the hundreds and put their
money into Salt Lake realty and Salt
Lake business of various kinds. The
result was an acccleration Of growth
and prosperity to the city so that Salt
Lake wcathercd the storm of 1907 IN
far better shape than almost any other
city in the United States.
The victory Of last Tuesday gave yet
moro emphatic assurance to the same
purport, that this is q free city which
cannot be held in pricstly leading strings
any longer For the first time there
was shown an absolute majority for the
American ticket over all opposing fac
tions. This majority is certain to in
crease, because the now population and
tho new vote ranges itself with prac-
tica1 nnanimifv on the American side.
This is shown by the result of the re-
cent election. The opposition tickets
received practically the same vote that
they received two years before. The
American ticket increased some two
thousand votes, being practically all Of
fhc increase of vote cast over tho vote
Of two wears ago The new population
which came in the present year was
not able TO vote at the recent election
II will bc able to vote at The election
next year and that. as the vote which
preceded il, will be practically unit
for Amcricanism.
So that tho outlook for the continued
supremacy OF the American party, its
majority over all Of the opposition. is
exceedingly bright. Ii is this which
has given such renewed confidence in
the city. 1t is this which caused so
MANY investors in Salt Lake realty,
who live in other cities of the country
from New York to San Francisco, TO
telegraph their congratulations 20 May
or Bransford upon the tremendous vic
tory of the American party. Those IN
vcstors understand from the business
standpoint that the triumph Of the
American party was the best possible
thing for business, and for the security
and profit Of their investments III was
that which actuated them in extending
their congratulations This feeling is
so general, so pronounced, and such a
reasonable outgrowth Of the conditions
here. that lis verdict must be decisive.
The American party triumph was good
for business. and when that is said and
admitted, rs il must in all candor be
admitted. it completely disPoses Of the
stale outcry Of the opposition that Salt
Lake City would flourish better without
the American party. Since, however,
that is clearly not the business judg,
mcnt, it is idle 10 repeat that cry any
more.

TURN DOWN THE
KEASBEY WATER
sasoIaI 70 lhe EvENINa NEws.

Special to the EVENING NEWS.
Woodbridge. Dec. 6:-Wood-
bridge township has turned down
the proposition to buy water from
the city of Perth Amboy for the vii
lage Of Keasbey. At a meeting OF
the township committee Thursday
night typewriter contracts were pre-
sented for the committee to sign.
William A. Brown, representing a
number of taxpayers of the township,
asked the committeeman a number
of questions which the committee
men seemed unable to answer def
nitely. Mr.. Brown said he favored
the transaction IL the water could be
bought reasonably. He then dwelt
at length on the expenditure of s5,-
900 to construct the proposed six
inch main, the cost OF maintaining it,
the repairs, etc, the salary of the
collector and meter reader and nu-
merous other features In connection
with the proposed water system. He
pointed out that there were at pres
ent less than a dozen houses to take
the water at an annual income to
