IN THE TABERNACLE.

In all the entertainment of President
Taft nothing will be more pleasantly
remembered than the exercises at the
tabernacle. The address of the Presi-
dent, with its bToad-gauge counsel of
those who heard him; the unusually ad-
mirable playing of Mr.. Mcclellan, and
Mrs. Plummer's singing of THE Flag
Without a Stain" on Sunday-these are
features of especial worth.
Both sides to the controversy going
on in Salt Lake should profit by the
words of counsel so sagaciously uttered
by the President
And in the light of the better day
which he points for all, the gifted
singer voiced a prophecy. And on her
wonderfully musical tones the heart of
the hearer was lifted to hopes of greater
things for "America-my America" In
the memory of that song rancor gives
way to the tear-washed fervor of pa
triotism, and local differences vanish in
the presence Of duty to a mighty ma
ton.

ter has graciously accepted it. But we
should be glad to have the nations
chief executive see other of Mr.. Gull
mer's work. and find in the reproduce
ton of some of natures softer phases
the exquisite touch and marvellous
strength of this Utah painter.
The bridge is a true picture. 1t pre-
sents the lines and colors of the scene.
But it is not pretty. 1t is not inspiring.
1t is simply the biggest natural bridge
in the world. 1t win enrich the Presi-
dents possessions, and it will show to
his friends in the east one of the mar
vels of a country not so we'll known as
it will be when the road south from
Marysvale, and west through Kanab
and st. George to Modena, shall be
completed.
And when that enterprise is in opera
ton, no doubt the visitors to Utah will
see the rest of Mr.. Culmer's pictures
and carry them away.
That last thought is the shadow on
the prospect.

oNCE I'M AWHILE.

It is easy enough to be pleasant.
When life flows by Ike a song,
But the man worth while is one who will
smile
When everything goes wrong.
For the test of the heart is trouble
And it always comes with the years,
And the smile that is worth the praises of
earth
Is the smile that shines through tears.
It is easy enough to be prudent
When nothing Jempts you to stray,
When without or within no voice of sin
Is Turing your soul away.
But it's only negative virtue
Until it is tried by fire,
And the life that is worth the honor of
earth
Is the one that resists desire.
BY the cynic, the sad, the fallen,
Who had no strength for the strife,
The worlds highway is numbered today
They make up the item of life.
But the virtue that COnqUers passion
And the sorrow that hides in a smile,
It is these that are worth the homage of
earth,
For we find them but once in awhile
Ella Wheeler Wilcox.

THE FORELOPER,

The gull shall whistle in his wake, the
blind wave break in fire,
He shall fulfill Gods utmost will unknow-
ing His desire;
And he shall see old planets pass and
alien stars arise,
And give the gale his reckless sail in
shadow of new skies
Strong lust Of gear shall drive him out
and hunger arm his hand
To wiring his food from desert nude his
fOOthOld from the sand.
His neighbours smoke shall vex his eyes,
their voices break his rest,
He shall go forth till South is North sui
len and dispOSsessed;
And he shall desire loneliness, and his de-
sire shall bring
Hard on his heels a thousand wheels, a
people, and a king;
And he shall come back in his own track,
and by his scarce cool camp:
There he must blaze a nations way with
Ratchet and with brand

THE RIGHTEOUSNESS OF BONDS

In different parts of the state the
matter of bonding counties is being
discussed. More than one county is
filling up with farmers and business
men, and they need bridges, and they
need roads. They have already a very
heavy load in making the beginnings
of a cultivated country. They have alb
solutely put all they have in the world
into that enterprise which they call
home. They have not only invested
their all, but they have pledged their
personal futures. And they are reclaim
ing the wilderness in a manner that
proves their quality as the best of
Americans.
But they cannot raise the ready
money for the building Of many needed
bridges or the making Of all needed
roads. Yet if these roads and bridges
are provided, the country will advance
very much more rapidly. Without the
Improvements the country will lag in
the march, and a whole generation will
pass away before the handicapped resi-
dents viii be able to advance the money
needed for the public works.
Surely it were a righteous act to call
on that future which is certain to see
their growth. Surely the people who
come later will gladly share the burden
since they will all the time share the
benefits. Surely these original pioneers

roads and bridges-and would have
willingly assumed their share for the
payment.
Bonds will not be issued in the reck-
less old way conducted years ago by
the railroad promoters of the middle
western states. Once there was a rail-
road company called the Paola & Fall
River, in Kansas. It secured right of
way through four counties and induced
the property owners to vote a big bonus
in bonds, half to be delivered when the
franchise was accepted, the other half
when the roadbed was ready for the
rails. The constituencies exploiters of
the gentle Kansans got their bonds.
converted them into cash, and never
laid rail And that bond litigation
kept county officers in jail for twenty
years before the settlers surrendered
and paid their cash to innocent pur-
chasers."
Propositions for county bonds in
Utah are not of that kind. They are
for the raising of money that surely

The land to be sold is
known locally as the Pan
guitch East Bench. 1t is
covered with a growth of
sagebrush and grass, is free
from alkali, slopes gently TO
the west and is well adapted
for growing farm crops. The
soil of quite twO-thirds of
the tract is a deep sandy loan
where drainage lines cross
the area, the exposed soil
layer frequently shows
depth Of from ten to twelve
feet.
From the north end of the
tract, the nearest railroad

WORK CUT OUT FOR THEM.

w H. Taft and the other MEM
bers of the Commercial club of Salt
Lake would do well to get busy in this
matter Of the Larger Salt Lake.
Next spring the census enumerators
will count noses here, and they will give
the city about 75,OO0-when it has more
than 100000, if the whole territory prop
erly part of the city were to be in
cluded
This is a matter Of the. greater i'm
portance. Some people say. Forest Dale
will not permit itself to be annexed to
the city. But it is certainly known there
is a sentiment there in favor of annex
alton. On a former occasion the propo-
sition was rejected with practical una
nimity by Forest Dale. But there is a
different feeling now. Some time it will
of necessity have to be included in the
city. Two corporations so essentially
the same excepting in name will Of ne
cessity become one.
There is no politics in the proposition.
There is simply an admission of the
fact. The city has more people than
it wifi get credit for in the national
census unless that the one mentioned,
and all others outside the limits, be-
come a part Of Salt Lake.
Here is work Of great importance for
the Commercial club.
We have a President Of the United
States in the membership of a local or
ganizatiOn. The club is bigger because
of It. Let the city be bigger, too.

Salt Lake was that in England the diff
ference between service and pay is not
so disproportionate as here in the Unit
ed States.
There are a good many things to keep
a man out of public life; to make him
avoid politics. But one of the most
powerful arguments of the good citizen
is that he cannot afford to take office.
And the people lose because they do
not pay for their services what their
services are worth.
