HIS sECTARIAN CAMPAIGN.

II is sometimes q peculiar method
that the Mormon Melchisedeks employ
IN their campaigning. Suppose that you
had received from a political candidate
a circular which gave as his chief rec
ommendation to public consideration
the fact that he had served as mis-
sionary for the Mormon church. what
woud YOU think Of him? We have one
such paper, and it cones to us from
Paris, Idaho. the hotbed of polygamous
rcnegades in our neighbor State, and
is signed by one w. Smith Hoge. The
part of that document to which we re-
fer reads as follows;
\ On October 10. 1906 / left my home in
Paris Idaho, remember-not Francel as
a missionary 10 Great Britain, and after
la boring in the Manchester conference for

stenosraphic work for the attorneys and
others. | am now the official stake re-
porter OF the Bear Lake stake, having
been called TO that position by the stake
presidency; ! am also stake secretary OF
the Sunday school board.
OF course, to the ordinary citizen, the
fact that this Young man had served as
stenographer to lawyers, and had as.
sisted his good father in the abstract
business. would prove to be points in
recommendation to their favorable con-
sideratIon in political way But what
mission to Great Britain would have
to do with the matter ii is difficult to
comprehend Why citizen should vote
into public Office a candidate who was
official stake reporter would also prove
to be 'tstunner" to any but a Nor
mon block teacher. And in so far as
is concerned the matter of being stake
secretary to the Sunday school board,
as having to do with fitness for political
service, only those who know the ms
and outs of the Melcbisedeks in gen
eral would be able to comprehend. There
| is no doubt. from the nature of his own
showing. that W. Smith Hoge is all ex-
cellent young man-and perhaps the

TODAY IN HISTORY
Establishment OF Standard Time.
FRIDAY, NOVEMBER fe. 1910.

Until within the last twenty-five years
but as travel became more extensive IT
was found quite inconvenient TO alter
ones watch and system of time reckon
ing for every few miles Of travel east
and west Accordingly, late in the year
1883. the United States adopted the pres
ent system OF standard time. II required
several months TO adjust matters, but
ihis system went into effect on March
OF standard lime has been adopted all
over the country. II was necessary TO
divioe the whole country into time belts
OF approximately Is degrees in width.
The eastern" belt, extending as far
west as Buffalo, Pttsburg and line d.
rectly south. uses the time OF the sew
enty NTH meridian. which Is very nearly
that of the Atlantic coast cities. Cross
Ing into the central belt. watches are
set one hour earlier, as the time en-
p,oyed Is that Of the nlnetieth meridian.
similarly mountain time uses the ono
hundred and fifth meridian, seven hours
behind; and the Pacific" belt adopts the
time. just eight hours slower than that
OF Greenwich.
Standard time is uniform inside each
or these Sections. and the time of each
section differs from that next TO ii by
exactly one hour Thus at Il noon in
New York City, the time at Chicago is
IL O'Clock a. M. at Denver, 10 o'clock
At present almost every civilized coun-
Try is using some system Of standar ri
time. usually under the control of its
own government
The CHIEF source for standard time in
the United State is the Naval observa-
tory at Washington. .. c. Here high
grade clocks arc carefully regulated by
observation Of the stars at night, and all
necessary corrections applied For the
I'VE minutes preceding noon of each day
eastern time, the Western Union and
Postal Telegraph companies suspend all
business and throw their lines into con-
nection with the Washington observa-
tory. IL is so arranged that the sound
ers all over the lines make stroke each
second during the five minutes until
noon. except the twenty ninth OF each
minute. the last five seconds OF the first
four minutes, and the last ten seconds
OF the fifth minute: then follows the final
stroke at each noon.
This affords many opportunities for the
correction and setting Of timepieces
throughout the country. The Western
Union company also operates a system
OF some 30. 900 clocks, which aulomati-
cally set themselves by the noon signal
each day.
In addition to the Washington signals
many smaller observatorie determine
and distribute time in similar way to
jewelers. and local railroad lines. In
most OF the larger SeaportS time balls
are dropped AT noon, and give mariners
an opportunity 10 correct their chronome-
tcrs. Fire companies aid in the dstri-
button OF time in many localities by
sounding bells at certain specified times
each day. thus affording the public a
convenient source OF correct time" with
reasonable degree OF accuracy.
The correction and distribution of
standard time Is a system In Itself quite
indispensable 30 the success Of the indus
trial world,

AMERICAN PARTY SUFFICIENT

We copy on another page this morn.
ing significant article from the Og-
den Standard which has heretofore
viewed with good deal of complacency
the help received by its Church Re
publican party IN elections. Now the
Standard is tired Of it and calls for the
elimination of high ecclesiasts from
control in politics. 1t suggests the for
nation of a party "that will have for
its great issue the elimination of
church influence in politics. 1t be
lIeves that such a party would absorb
majority of both the Republican and
Democratic parties IN the State.
f" But adds the Standard, "in order
for such a party to be successful it must
adopt principles. policies, and action
Just the REVERSE of the so.called
American party. in Salt Lake City
1t is singular indeed to see a news
paper take that position; for precisely
the thing that the Standard declares
the new party should make its chief
aim and purpose is the chief aim and
purpose of the American party For
The Standard TO say, as it does, that
the new party should make its great

clared that the party ''repudiates as
an impossibility the charge that it IS
opposed to any church. and this has
been the uniform expression of the
party at all times.
There is no honest reason for those
who wish to eliminate eeclcsiasticism
from the politics Of this State to make
any point against the American party,
because the elimination of priestly con.

Deafness Can not be Cured

by local applications as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear
There is only one way to cure deafness
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an inAamed con-
dition of the mucous lining of the Eus-
tachian Tube. When this tube is in
famed you have rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when 1t is en-
tirely closed, deafness is the result,
and unless the Inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to its
normal condition, hearing will be de-
stroyed forever; nine cases out OF ten
are caused by Catarrh, which is moth

In the new stage lighting at the I'm
peral Opera of Berlin, Fortuny, the
Spanish designer of the system, uses
an arc lamp, and the rays are not thrown
directly upon the scene, but are re-
flected from silk bands unrolled and set
in position by pulleys. This causes the
light to become perfectly diffused. The
stage fittings include a steel sky in the
form of quarter of sphere, and the
dead white coating given this sky causes
it, in the diffused light, TO give the IL
fusion Of limited space. BY a special
device, clouds are shown in apparent
natural motion. The clouds are painted
on screens, and their reflection from
slowly rotated mirrors causes them to
appear to be moving slowly across the
sky. These ingenious appliances, said
to be readily operated ana effective,
seem to add to stage productions an un-
usual and pleasing realism.
A simple detector for dangerous gases

asbestos is secured in suitable holder
moving it into the lamp flame. The
detector is pushed two-thrds through

slight foggy orange halo appears around
the flame toward the upper part of the

yellowish conical cap surmcunts the
halo, varying in size with the proper

What Registration
Seems to Indicate

Registration appears to be little slow
in most of the counties of the state up
to the present time. In San Francisco,
it is less than 25,O0O, the party affilia-
ton showing up to last Friday night Is, =
696 republicans, 2,635 democrats, 1868
union labor, l6l socialists, 81 prohibit
ionists. 80 independent league, while
494 declined to state their party politics,
and will therefore be excluded from
voting at the primary. Alameda county
has nearly 10000 names on the great re-
gister at the present time, and Los
Angeles leads the procession, as she
usually does, with over 10000 names
enrolled. Sacramento has little better
than 10000 voters registered to date,
and strange to say the party ratio holds
about the same in the other counties
that it does in San Francisco.
1t seems hardly probably that only
republicans are registering, but on the
other hand it appears more likely that
many independent or lukewarm demo-
Gratis are registering as republicans for
the purpose of getting a chance to exer-
else the right of franchise in the nam
ing of a republican candidate in the pri-
maries because they despair already of
winning in the general election. The
new primary law may prove to be one
of the worst makeshifts ever offered to
the voters of California, and dssatis-
faction is already cropping out in uneX-
pected quarters with it.-Exchange.
