Protests Against interference.

AS members OF the Republican nar+,.

before the meeting that he would find the

leans than he hoped. but he was glad to

various counties of the state. They are

Morris Begins His Speech.

After music by the L. ID. S. university
band, Chairman Morris made the OPEN
ing speech Of the convention. He spoke
for about fOrty-five minutes and was ap-
|3iauded again and again. He said about
Sfffty Republicans, who had been discred-
ited by the Official organ of the Republi-
can party, had called the convention. and
that they had certainly met a generous
response. When the prohibition move
ment began in this city il was branded as
d Democratic movement because some
prominent anti-saloon league members
had been active in their efforts to obtain
prohibition. and in the shOTtsightcdncss OF
imperfect vision of the party press they
seemed to confuse every other man who
wanted prohibition with those Democrats
and they were discredted by their paper
and called Democrats because they want
ed prohibition They thought they would
see If there were any Republicans out
side of Salt Lake county who wanted pro
hibition, and the fifty sent out invita-
tiOns to the chairmen of the party in the
different counties of the state to send
delegates who wanted prohibition to that
convention, and he could readily see that
there were many in the state who want
ed such bill enacted.
Issue of the Hour.
His motive in standing before them
needed no particular explanation. He was
there in the interest of prohibition and
for the good Of the party and the good
of the people He had no malice in his
heart toward the party leaders. He had
some pity for them, and he thought they
needed IL. He had nothing to gain in
business Wav by advocating prohibition,
directly at any rate. He had. on the other
hand some reasons tc believe that If
prohibition did not pass he had the op-
portunity for several good contracts in

Why ChirOpraCtiC
Cures Female Troubles

In most cases the Ills common to wo-
men which are included in the general
name of Female Troubles, are caused
by disarrangements that can easily be
corrected. In some cases the nerves
may be affected, and because Of this
the patient may suffer from d number
of different causes. In other cases the
trouble may be caused by inactivity o.
the liver, kidneys or bowels. This, Of
course, accounts for a large percentage
Of the ills of women.
Ch.ropractic cures all these ailments
by going to the root of the trouble and
removing the cause. In nine cases cut
of ten a disordered nerve causes the
trouble. and ChirOpractic treatments
deal directly with the nerves.
Chiropraetic is a positive cure.

Who Can Afford to Wait?

Ladies and gentlemen of the prohibition
persuasion, YOU and can afford to wait,
but the other man cannot afford to keep
us waiting too long. Another election
day will come to Utah, and when that
day comes the people will say not only
who they want. but what they want The
day of political bosses is over. The peo-
pie are sovereign IN this nation. and they
are going to be- in Utah, and the man
that wants TO save his tallow had better
get away from the fire. Therefore. per-
nit me to say to you again. that we can
afford to go slow. and we must go slow
the interests Of the state demand it. and
the success of the party requires it. There

''Our first great duty is to save Utah
1t is very easy matter to make false and
damaging accusations. but a very diff
cult matter to subStantiate them. We may
think that a certain thing is true and
keep thinking II and saying 1t until it
really does become true to us, but may ne
as false as falsehood. The cry has gone
out and up and away that the Repub-
lican party sold out to the saloon interests
before the last election. If that is true

The Paramount interest.

The one paramount interest that brings
us together, my fellow countrymen, is not
dead even in Utah. It is not even walk
ing at night i'm its sleep. Our interest does
not require the darkness of the night
in which to walk The bright daylight is
our time to move around. But it can be
truly said of many of our opponents that
they have not had many nights of sleep
during the past few weeks. No, the pro-
hibition of the liquor traffic in Utah is
not dead. And Furthermore it will not die,
nor down, until the last saloon and drug
store are ridden of their blight and shame
and damnation. We therefore meet to-
night with this as our motto: When the
last saloon is closed In Utah we will stop
the fight We may lose some battles.
Indeed the prohibition army had a tenn
porary defeat some days ago; but don I
lose courage, my brothers and sisters
don't lose courage. The mills OF the gods
grind slowly. but theX ever grind. We
seek not our own good alone, and they
that thus go forth toiing are sure to win.
for their cause is right. The liquor trait
fic in Utah is upon its its dying bed, and
its friends are already keeping watch.
But woe unto the physicians that keep 1t

HANDSOME SALARIES PAID
TO STARS OF THE DIAMOND
Several Players Drawing over $4,000
a Season While TWO Receive
Twice This Sum.

The plutocrat ball team of the
American league, it is declared by a
magnate, would be about as follows:
Pitcher, Donovan of Detroit, Joss of
Cleveland, and Walsh of Chicago,
each drawing around $4,000. The
catchers would be Sullivan of Chi
cago, and Criger of st. Louis, each
pulling down about $4,000. Charles
Schmidt, the Detroit catcher, re-
fused to sign this season at that fig
ure. Hal Chase of the Highlanders
leads the first basemen, with a pay
envelope of $4,000 Jajoie, of course,
leads the second sackers, with his
$500. Bobby Wallace of the st.
Louis Browns drew $4,000 for three
years during baseball wartimes, and
gets close to that figure now. Bill
Bradley, the Cleveland third sacker,
leads the players of that position
with a salary of between $4,000 and
$4,000
Cobb, of course, tops the outfelders,
with his $4,000 salary at the age of
%. Sam Crawford, the great smuggling
Center fielder of the Tigers, is the
best-paid player in that position this
Season, drawing close to 5000. Matty
Mcintyre of the Tigers and George
Stone of the ST Louis Browns, vie
with each other for the honor among
the left felders. each drawing about
$4,000.
In the National league both Man
ager Frank Chance of the Cubs and
Manager John ]. McGraw of the New
York Giants are reputed to be draw
ing $4,000 salaries this year Chance
drew $500 last year. Five of the
worlds champion Cubs draw between
$4,000 and $4,000, as follows: King,
Tinker, Evers, Overall and Brown.
Christy Mathewson, the star pitcher
of the Giants, draws $4,000, and Mike
Donlin about $4,000 Leach, third
sacker of the Pittsburg club, draws
$4,000. Lobert, the star third sacker
of the Cincinnati Reds pulls down
only $4,000.
Pretty fair salaries, business men
will doubtless remark, that these
stars of the national game are paid.
But what of it? But for the stars
the game would be dull and the man.
ayers would fail to get the money.

MRS. coMER's BEST JUDGMENT.
Like That of Others, II Occasionally
Was at Fault.

The mistakes which we're plentifully
sprinkled along Mrs. Corners career
were never regretted by any one more
than by Mrs. Conner herself. Il used
the very best judgment 1 had" she
said, referring to one unfortunate oc-
currence, but as usual, everything
went wrong.
You see, went to Greenyille in the
morning with Mrs. Hobart, intending
to go on to Nashua; but changed my
mind when the weather turned cool
and spent the day with Anna Woods,
going home at dusk. I'd forgotten my
little bag with my key in It, so I went
right over to Mrs. Hobart's.
Shed gone down the road to Mrs.
Coles, but found her key behind the
ieft-hand blind, and went right in.
"The house was dark. but said to
myself: I won't light lamp for fear
of soaring her. timid woman living
all alone as she does So I sat In the
dark till l heard her coming up the
walk.
when she found the door was I'M
locked she gave a kind of gasp; so
I stepped forward, and then, long as
/ had cold so my voice didn't sound
natural, and 1 was afraid 'twould
scare her, she being so timid, put out
my hand and laid it on her arm.
"And If you'll believe me-" finished
Mrs. Conner, plaintively, "she fell right
over in a faint, and cut her forehead
on the edge Of the rocking chair, and
thought I'd never bring her to!
There's no use trying to be care
full with woman like her."-Youth'E
Companion.

SALARY LIMIT RAISED IN
THE THREE ]" LEAGUE
Increased from $1,000 to $3.50 and
Fourteen Men AIIowed-May Add
Fifth Arbitrator.

At meeting of the Three I" league
magnates at Chicago the other day it
was unanimously decided to raise the
salary limit from $1,000 to SLIGO, to
take effect Immediately. Another i'm.
portant concession was the permission
granted each club to carry IA men,
including the manager. 1t also was
decided that no club shall pay any in
dividual player more than $3.50 a
month.
The president of the league was
voted the privilege of determining the
dates of all postponed games without
consulting the clubs This will do away
with any wrangling among the man
ayers as to the time a postponed con-
test should be staged. The magnates
also passed a motion that, at the dis
erection of the president, the number
of umpires carried by the league may
be raised from four to five, if he finds
it necessary.
The rRising Of the salary limit was
the rest of considerable agitation
among the managers as well as the
magnates. 1t was found impossible to
give the public good ball and play
through the season with Is men, four
of whom were pitchers, without allow
ing for a utility man. Pitchers last
year were worked almost to DEATH"
especially when regular members OF
the teams were unable to play because
of injuries. The additional man con-
sequently called for the raise in the
salary limit
The umpire ruling was brought
about principally through the poor
working of the arbiters this spring.
Several have been chased off the field
under police protection because of con-
rary decisions. In such cases the
league found itself short an umpire
and the directors decided the addi-
tlonal money spent for a fifth arbitra
tor would be the leagues gain.

It's a fact that many people who
never go to bail game, ana gain
their knowledge of the game by in
curing from those who do go, are
very severe in their criticisms about
the showing the visiting teams make
against the Brownies. The Modern
Plumbers were vouched for by the
sporting editor of a Houston paper
to be second best team in Houston.
The last game of the Brownsville Sc
rieS proves his judgment good. One
to nothing games in the big league
are very scarce. Anybody can ham
mer, but it takes mechanic to build
a house Buy a hammer for thirty
nve cents and get in the game right.
To meet a demand tickets have
been placed on sale at different places
in the city. Fer $100 a series ticket
will be sold, emitting the holder to
take three people to one game or to
admit him to the entire three games.
See that you get one.

ceived to kilograms whether there
will be games this week.
