people would like to have him. he is

not honest or sincere. he generally

he stops thinking and the result is, of

A REAL BUTTER-IN.

but famous illustration, Of the man
who had the itch and a cheap watch.
When he wasn't scratching, he was
winding his watch. Mr.. Frazier has
Salt Lake into such excellent condi-
ton that he thinks he has time 10 as
sumo the duties OF state food inspec-
tor, which seem to US to be pretty
capably filled by Mr.. Hansen and his
assistants.
Salt Lake is not nearly so clean as
ii might be. There has been much i'm
provement. and it delights US. We
think pretty well Of Salt Lake. The
Tribune party organ, which supports
Mr. Frazier because II used him last
summer in an attempt to injure Salt
air, encourages Mr.. Frazier to go on
and clean UP the state.
We can find no objection 20 that if
Mr.. Frazier has the city so clean that
II does not need any OF his attention.
If Salt Lake is in such condition that
all the regulations Of the bureau of
health and the city ordinances meet
instant compliance. by all means let
Mr.. Frazier use his energy IN making
the state clean. This is a big state,
and Mr.. Hansen undoubtedly would
.be very glad for more help.
However, we do not think Salt Lake
is so clean that Mr. Frazier can af-
ford to drop to the low gear in his at
tempts to see to it that the food we eat
is pure. that the milk we drink is
clean and pure and produced under
proper sanitary conditions. No one
questions his right to inspect the dairy
that sells milk in Salt Lake, no matter
whether that dairy be located in Utah
or Timbuctoo. But when it comes tc
inspecting Sanpete county slaughter
houses, that do not sell, or attempt &c
sell, a pound OF meat in Salt Lake
Mr.. Frazier is going far afield. butting
into something that is none OF hi:
business, and is wasting the city's ex-
pense money.
No. let Mr.. Frazier attend to his
own business. He has a sufficiently
large field for his energy here at home
We think we could give him severa
tips to be used as an outlet for hi!

women's clubs probably have enough

SPEED ON THE MATRIMONIAL SEA

While In this city Inspecting Schley's

in wishing the evils OF the liquor traf-
nc in this state reduced to the lowest
possible minimum. is in favor Of local
option. Some favor county option,
some favor the city. and that part OF
the county outside the city. as the
voting units but most of them favor
solution of the liquor question that
will really get results. They believe
that the Republican idea OF a state
law absolutely prohibiting the sale OF
liquor in each county outside incor-
porated cities. and the question OF
wet or dry TO be submitted to
each city to settle for itself within
ninety days after the adjournment of
the legislature, is the proper solution.
These pastors believe that state
wide prohibition is desirable If it can
be enforced. But they also know that
enforcing statewide prohibition is an
impossibility, because each city in the
state insists upon its right OF self
government in the matter, and be-
cause no law can be enforced without
the sentiment of the people behind IT.
For that reason, a great many min
listers in Utah are going to vote the
Republican ticket this time. Every
preacher is sufficiently an idealist not
to have any great desire to seem tC
aim at a mark lower than his con
science tells him ought to be attained
but he wants results. too. and he gen
orally knows how to get them.
