BRYAN MAY SACRIFICE
HIMSELF ON PROHIBITION

until he was sure he was going to say
it, and therefore he did not care to
be interviewed on the matter now. 1t
was apparent, however, from the man
ner in which he declined to talk that
he neither thought Bryan could make a
national issue out of prohibition or
that he could place himself again at
the head of the party on that or any
question.
HAS "PARAMOUNTEDt THRICE IN
VAIN.
Representative John N. Garner, De-
mocrat of Texas, in whose district Bry-
an owns a farm, said: Bryan has pa
ramounted' three times for the Demo-
cratic party already, and l don't think
he will be allowed to do it again. |
think he is a very noble man, but as a
statesman he has not made good, and
three chances ought to be enough.
That part of the American people
known as the Democratic party will
not, in my opinion, let him dictate any
such paramount issue for it as pro-
hIbition. Local option in the several
States is all right, and is in line with
Democratic principles; but to let Mr.
Bryan made a national issue of it will
be equivaent to the partys going into
Il receivership with hmm as the receiver
with no responsibility to court or pub
lie.
Bryan will never again head in
the party. In his Dallas speech he
maintained with great fervor that the
paramount thing for Democrats to do
was to get raw materials on the free
list( and he declared that Democratic
Congressman should be instructed ac-
cordingly. Now, if the dispatch is
true, he is going to come out with
something else more important than
finances, the tariff or the trust ques-
ton. The people do not know what
he is going to do next and have lost
faith in him as a leader. Prohibition
is matter for the States to decide for
themselves.
Representative Cordell Hull, of Tena
nessee, and L. P. Padgett, of the same
States, do not care to talk until the
Bryan articles referred to in the dis
patch from Lincoln come out. Ten.
nessee being in somewhat of an alf and
alf condition regarding liquor, their
position is ticklish.
Representative Jack Beall, of Texas
concurred with Representative Garner
in the opinion that prohibition would
not be made national issue by The
Democratic party, and Bryan canno
make it such.
1--WE have local option in Texas,
he said, and three-quarters Of thu
state is dry. But l don't see how Bryan
can make it the leading national issuC
with the party, not only because sucl
plan is not feasible, but because h
has reached the end of his tether. TIL
great question is the tariff. 1t ha
been for rs years, and will continue t.
be for some time longer"

BUILDING THE BREAKWATER
ON THE CUTOFF.

The construction of a test break.
water on Great Salt Lake. to the
north Of the tracks of the Ogden-Lu-
Gin cutoff, is the beginning of a piece
of work which has been advocated by
many who have seen the mighty
waves Of the inland sea sweep along
the approaches to the trestle and
carry away huge boulders placed there
to resist those very waves.
A storm on the Dead Sea Of Amer
lea sets in motion a body of water
which Is saturated with salt, making
waves of greater weight and force
than those of the ocean of equal
heighth. These waves move heavy
stones and, in receding, draw with the
force of a powerful suction pump.
Where the -rapping of the dirt en-
bankments has not been thoroughly
performed. large holes are formed In
the roadbed by the waves.
At least one engineer on the Harri-
man system contends that, with the
completion of the shield of rocks, the
roadway will be made imDerylous to
the storm action, but Engineer Hood
has decided TO make the cutoff doubly
secure by driving double row Of pil-
ing on each side Of the exposed points
on the road, he holding to the theory
that well spaced line Of piles inter
rupting the surface action Of the water
will render the waves harmless. Be
tween the row of piles and the road
he'd will be a comparatively quiet body
of water which will act as a buffer or
cushion against wb.ch the waves will
strike and be dissipated
II the test breakwater proves a sue
cess, the work started Tuesday by En-
gineer MSeGonagle will be but the be-
ginning of an undertaking which will
call for an expenditure of half a mil
lion of dollars, requiring the services
of several gangs of experts in pile
driving for long period
This breakwater will add materially
TO the stability Of Harriman's greatest
piece Of railroad reconstruction.

alongside Pasteur. Koch. Lister, Pane
and the other investigators of dis
eases VINO have added to the knowl-
edge of the medical profession and
made possible the successful battling
with the ailments OF the human race.
DR. Lott, 1t is claimed, has discovered
a treatment which Will eliminate scar

from the system In from thirty min
utes to an hour.
The discovery has received the at
tention of the United States Marine
Hospital at Washington wnere expert
ments are being made.
Before these discoveries are accept
ed by the medical profession they
must pass beyond the experimental
stage, which is an unwritten law Of
the profession which keeps the reg
ular practitioner free from the stain
OF quackery. There Is not week In
the year that some one does not an
nounce a wonderful discovery in the
treatment of diseases, but nearly all
these startling discoveries prove to
be vaporings of immature minds or
the mercenary promptings of clever

for the adjournment of congress. Win

During the framing the bill, west

by Senator Reed Smoot of this state.
The Utah senator has been tower
of strength to the sugar beet industry,
the mining interests and the sheep
business. He has aided in protecting
western lumber. borax, lead, zinc, su-
gar and wool, and all other products
of the western part of the United
States which are in need of an equal
izing tariff.
While the East Is favored with pro-
lection, we believe even Democrats
will admit the West should enjoy the
same advantages. This balancing OIL
favors has been looked after with ex-
ceptional ability by Utah's senior SEN
ator, and the wool man, the beet sugar
grower and the miner should be thank
full that their interests have been in
the keeping Of one so favored as TO
be a member Of the Senate finance
committee. In the rooms of which the
tariff has been moulded.
There is no senator in the entire
West with influence equal to that of
Reed Smoot in the councils of the
leaders of the United States senate
and there is no senator who has been
in position to do half so much for
western interests as Senator Smoot
has accomplished.
