BIG ROGUE DEsPIsEs LITTLE.

The organ Of graft and falschood
had headline yesterday morning,
'Revolt Against Petty Grating. " Sure
enough! How contemplate petty graft
ing is The ono guilty of it should
at once be deposed from office in case
he is holding Office, and should be
marked so that he can never even as.
pire TO any office among free people.
But the loatbing for petty grating
expressed from that source is simply
the big CRATER showing his contempt
for the little one. The concern that
grated nearly $4,000 from The county
at one grab has supercilious, con
temptuous scorn for the fellow who only
CRAFTS meal or a cigar.
This contempt and scorn are fully
justified; but it must not be forgotten
by the grafters, big aud little, that
the public have supreme contempt and
scorn for both Of them. In the pub
lie mind, grating does not gain any
thing by being big. Although the big
grafters may think that the public ap-
proves their grating, there is such a
thing as carrying their predatory in
stincts too far. And when the public
arouses itself TO the realization of what
is being done to the taxpayers by way
Of robbery and graft, day of reck-
oning will come that will be sad Que
for the graftcrs both little and big.

be so. because the State has no foreign
relations, In this caso we soc that tho
Mexican Minister to Washington has
got in his demand for reparation for
the mobbng of Rodriguez, That was
perfectly proper. But why should the
United States, why should the people
of Utah, for instance. have to pay their
proportion, or any portion, of the in
demDity that may be required or con
ccdcd for the mobbing OF that Mexi-
can murderer! The people of other
States had nothing to do with it; but
IL seems that the people of other States
Will have to pay most of the indem-
nifty, and Texas will escape with a
payment only of her small share. 1t
is not an equitable proposition, in law
or in morals. The proper adjustment
of matters of this kind must necessarily
be made at some time or other We
have suggested on various occasions
that the proper time to taks up ques-
tions of this kind is when there is no
burning issue ut stake, and settle them
on the calm and right basis, Unques
tionably Texas should be required to
pay whatever indemnity is paid for the
acts of It's mob; but unquestlonably it
Will not do so. and no other State will
do tho like in case it is the offender
until the question is taken up
and settled Alright, 1t should be taken
up and settled by the coming session
of Congress, on the basis that when
ever the United States is mulcted in
indemnity in such case, the offending
State must como to tho front and pay
the bill.
But in the meantime, in this case. the
Mexicans are the offenders information
ally, in their insult TO the American
flag, and should first make apologies
and rcparation.

The Salt Lake tribune. [volume] (Salt Lake City, Utah) 1890-current, 1910-11-11

A reader of The Tribune has submit
ted to this paper the following inquiry,
to which we shall make reply to the best
of our ability:
Several months ago | remember reading
In some newspaper that Joseph Smith
the prophet (?), told a certain follower
OF his that the world had a knob at
tached 10 ii at each OF the poles, and
that these knobs were Inhabited by. GER
Discovery of the North Polc"" IN Hamp-
tons Magazine. but failed TO sec any
mention of said knobs. How noout it2
We have not at hand any record of
Joseph having advanced such theory:
but we know of several different such
nonsensical ideas being detailed at Nor
mon fresidcs. One of them is the knob
idea, or rather the suppositioD that at
the north pole, at least was a sort Of
scmi. detached worldlet upon which "'the
lost tribes OF Israeli dwelt. Another
of the ideas as orally set forth by the
elders is that at the north pole there is
an opening leading into the center Of
the earth; that the "Iost tribes'' are
living in snug comfort therein, Still an
is a depression Of considerable depth,
surrounded by impossible barrier walls
Of ice, and that the "lost tribes" are
to be found there-but not until the
"due time of the Lord. - This is the
most popular supposition among the cid
ers, who assert that some day the "lost
tribes will come out of their hiding
place and sweep down upon the earth
to redeem all the lands thereof from the
powers of Satan. -
However, as the actual discoveries
made By Lieutenant Peary have proved
the absurdity OF all these Meichisedek
theories. we are bound to regard them
for tho nonsense that they are, even
though any or all OF them may have
been put forth by the prophet"

THE THIEVES WIN.

The thieves seem to have the better
theft of $57o7.50 by the Smoot paper,
that being its illegal charge for print
ing the delinquent tax list of two
years ago. The ease has dragged along
in court, and now it is held by the
Judge that the complaint does not con-
stitute a cause of action, the effect
of which seems to be that inasmuch
as the county commissioners have GER
tain quasi-iudiclal functions, they have
the right TO disobey the law in this
particular, and to pay extortionate and
unlawful charges against the public
treasury if they see fit. On this point
an appeal is taken to tho State Su-
premc Court. but it is doubtful if that
court Will ever pass upon it, because
County Attorney Lyon. who has prose
cuted the case, will probably go out
of office before it can come TO argu-
ment in the appellate court, and if he
goes out Of office his successor will no
doubt drop the suit. 1t was for this
purpose that he was nominated, and no
doubt he will carry out the purpose of
his nomination,
The Judge who made this ruling per
haps thought the verdict of the people
at the election on Tuesday meant that
the grafters were 10 be allowed to CON
troll without interference of the law;
TO steal from the county treasury as
they desire. We confess that if the
Judge did so think he could bring for
ward pretty good reasons for so be-
lleving; for it was perfectly open
proposition that the county attorney
was defeated for denomination simply
and solely because he brought this suit
The contest for the nomination WAS
close, and the influence of the concern
that was being prosecuted was strong
honest county attorney, and il was not
alone the county attorney who WAS
defeated for denomination; every hon
est official who had in the least op-
posed graft was beaten IN the same
way, by the same influence and for
the same purpose; that purpose being
to allow of The stealing Of public funds
at viii by the grafters, and to strike
terror TO the heart of any county of
fetal who might be disposed to be
unreasonable - with the graftcrs. and
insist that the public treasury must be
protected. The verdict of the people,
so far as it may be supposed 10 apply
in this direction would be complete
ruling. The graftcrs are in the saddle,
and doubtless they will ride their race
for all IL is worth

WHAT TIRES THE PEOPLE.

The organ of political chicanery

ITS ways What the people are really
tired of, however, is the Federal bunch

sharpers, and its conscicnceless meth

and It's malevolent, filthy organ, So
far as The Tribune is concerned, this
paper stands for the only principle that

dividual liberty, for honesty in pol
itics and public affairs, and for good
faith and honor, both personal and

If it were true that the people arc
tired Of the fight which The Tribune
is making, then the people would not
be it citizens of The Republic For,
when d people get tired OF the fight
for law, for truth. and for good faith,
against lawlessness. falsehood, and
treachery, then they arc not fit TO be
free or TO take part with free men in
the control and administration Of pub
lie affairs.
not tired of the fight The people are
more earnest in the fight for law and
for justice. for morality and decency.

that the American party is stronger

full deceit and political bucannoering.
The people are weary Of all that bad

They are weary of the false pretenccs
