to appoint the committees AS Champ
Clark undoubtedly win be the next
speaker, Mr. Clark will naturally have
some idea on the subject that will not
square with those Of the Republican
insurgents. It was one thing for the
Democratic minority in the House to
aid the insurgents create dissension in
Republican ranks and to widen that
breach if possible, but 1t is another
thing for the party that contemplates
a majority in the next Congress TO vote
during the present session to cheat It
self OF power in the next.
ANY change in the present rules SO
far as regards the appointment of
committees will undoubtedly be op-
posed by those Democrats from the
south. who have been in Congress for
a long time. and who will stand high
in honor In the next Congress by rea-
son of tenure of service. Under the
old system, committee chairmanships
will go to the old members. and as
Z
northern members are not likely to be
we'll disposed toward IT.
There are merry times ahead in
Washington. They will come not only
in the session OF Congress which be-
gins in November. but they will come
in the new Congress with the House
in control Of the Democratic majority.
A Democratic Congress can no more

doubt Of Republican success two
years hence.
There is no doubt Of IT anyway, but
that eventuality would make it GER

THE oFEDERAL BuNCH.n

1t seems TO have thoroughly dis
gusted the Tribune when IT learned
that the students at the University
Of Utah had applauded the course Of
the United States officials OF Utah by
cheering them during the course OF
exercises at the university Just why
the Tribune should take the position
that endorsement OF the representa-
tives in Utah of the national govern
ment should be an offense 10 certain
people in the state is not clear
The trouble with that paper is that
it has followed it's chimera Of revenge
so long, has SO continually preached
its gospel of hatred that It believes it
Is making Roadway. Like the ro-
mancer who told a certain lie so often
that he believed It himself after a
time. the Tribune has been trying for
so long TO destroy the federal officials
that 1t believes it's own stories. which
have no further basis than the mag
ination OF its hired men. Being OBJ
posed to President Taft, the Tribune
would probably object 10 his being
cheered by the university students.
So far as the federal bunch" is
concerned, a casual acquaintance with
them brings one TO the understand
ing that they lose no sleep over Trib-
une attacks. and would lose flesh
more quickly over Tribune praise
than any other calamity that could
befall them. Praise from that paper
would lay any Of them open to sus-
picion, md an endorsement by the
Tribune would bring them disgrace
that they could scarcely surmount

that gives them a trouncing. If it is

quent beatings the Tribune gets mere
ly increase its hatred. Bigoted, in
tolerant. ignorant, stepped in a dense
ness that ought to bring surcease
from disappointment. but brings only
coma, the Tribune growls. snaps and
bites at everything II doesn't control.
1t has been getting thrashed year in
and year out, and Will continue TO be
beaten as long as it maintains its
present policy.
The public likes a fighter who can
take a beating with a smile on his
face. but when the vanquished shows
his yellow streak, and it is foot wide,
he incurs the disgust of everybody.
The Tribune made the federal
bunch" the issue during the last ten
days of the recent campaign and was
squarely beaten. Il ought to take its
medicine and shut up.

RULES OF CONGRESS.

II is semi-officially announced from
Washington that the Republican in
surgents are to renew their war on the
rules Of the national House of Repre-
sentatives when the present Congress
begins its closing session in December.
The insurgent leaders seem to be
doubtful whether they will have Dem
ocratie aid in their battle. They have
an impression that their former Demo-
cratic allies are going to await their
turn, which viii come with the new
Congress. in which they have a clear
majority.
It is not at all probable that the
Democratic strength in the present
Congress viii get in behind the insur-
gents. The plan now is to take from

HELP THE CENSUS MAN.


1t is 70 be hoped that the farmers
OF Utah who own their own irrigat-
ing plants will forward information
concerning them promptly to the spe-
clal agent OF the census bureau IN
salt Lake. The government desires
data concerning them. and It is to the
interest of the people OF Utah that the
development OF irrigation In this state
be placed properly before the people
OF the country IN the census pubhca-
tons and reports. II appears that the
government Is determined TO have the
data. and that II It cannot get II by
mail IL response to the blanks that
have been sent out. agents viii be sent
so interview each farmer. That Will
be expensive. and Uncle Sam should
not be put 10 that trouble.
Utah is said TO be the only state In
the Union where the farmers are not
responding promptly to this request
for information. This seems odd IN
view OF the fact that the irrigation

that the National Irrigation congress.
which suggested the work that the
CENSUS bureau is doing. also first saw
the light OF day IN Utah.
It is 10 the interest OF the entire
citizenship OF the state that this in
formation be furnished. The average
city dweller now understands that the
modern methods OF irrigation make
tho desert blossom like the rose. and
that a state that enjoys a full develop
ment OF the irrigation facilities is a
thoroughly good state in which 10
make a home. We have homes here
IN Utah for millions. and we want
them TO come 70 Utah and get them.
The more widely the sort Of informa-
ton that Uncle Sam wants is scat
tered throughout the east the more
general will be the movement or
homeseskers 10 Utah. Each and every
citizen OF the state ought TO give his
attention TO any matter that will ad-
vertise the state in the proper way.
And this Is one way TO do II.

Creating Wealth
for the State of Utah

By building its lines through lands then worth less than
SIS per acre, the Union Pacific Railroad has aided in
increasing the value of those lands many fold.
The assessed value of all property Utah has increased
from $105 629 041 in 1900 to SIP, 480 658 in 1909
There has been more important factor than the
Utah railroads in creating this enormous wealth.
The resultant prosperity has increased the value of
the railroad.
In 1900 the Union Pacific Railroad paid taxes in the
State of Utah amounting to $21 4O939 In 1909 paid
$41,952.79.
Progress for the Union Pacific means progress for the
whole State Every mile of additional track laid every
train station, wealth, which is shared only
by the Union Pacific Railroad but by every citizen in the
State of Utah.
We have book Utah and its resources which will
be mailed friend in the East for the asking.

AMERICUS TO PLAY ON

Series With Albany a Con-

Instead of concluding the seri IS

Americus and Albany, the campaign
has been prolonged, and under an
agreement just entered into the two
teams will continue playing strenuous
ball all through August and possibly
into September as well.
1t is to be a continuous performance
until one team or the other falls from
physical exhaustion or some other
cause.
Six additional games have just been
agreed upon, three to be played in
Americus and the final three. of course,
in Albany, this arrangement suitin2

might blow this way, but the Albany
goat is the Hebrew offering most
coveted Each team will add new
strength, and the fight which began
on July 4th will be waged until the
October 0breezes blow in Georgia.
The series, therefore. will consist
of at least eighteen games, and others
still in the event of tie.
Buchanan will umpire tie three
games in Albany next week, provided
that team does not register a kick be-
