PETTY PARTISAN SPITE.

Those in control of the present State
legislature, which is now in the sixty
eighth day of it's sixty day session, have
shown throughout the most narrow po-
litical bigotry. They have, on every
matter proposed, drawn partisan lines
wherever il was possible, and even
where 1T ought to have been impos-
sible. A conspicuous instance of this
is in the matter of the bill giving to
boards of control Of State institutions
certain power to deal with the cx.
change of lands and water under their
management. There would seem TO be
nothing the matter with proposition
of this kind where boards arc hon
estly devoted to tho public service and
have ordinary intelligence. 1t would
seem as though State Board com
posed of persons ft TO act for the State
in such capacity, would so act as to
ensure that the rights of the public
and of the State would be fully pro.
tected, and that they would deal fnirly
with all interests involved That would
be the natural presumption. and that
would probably be the practical effect
But all at once it was found that
there was possibility that the Hon.
Jesse Knight of Provo might, in some
way, get an exchange with the trustees
of the State Mental Hospital at Provo,
which would give him the right to run
a prospecting tunnel under some of the
ate lands That apparently was
enough to array all the "talcnt -
against it. and the bill was defeated
by a vote of more than three to one.
TLere does not seem to have been any
argument used against the passage of
the bill, save that it might possibly
benefit Mr.. Knight. or, that that board
in charge might be unfaithfuI TO its
trIst. In the latter alternative, the
Senate, by its vote, attacked the hon.
csty or the intelligence of the board
in control Of the mental hospital prop.
crtv. In the former alternative, it was
a mean, petty slap at Mr., knight which
was entirely unworthy of the legislature
to deliver

it is at times desirable to speed the
Senate up little. and probably tho
best thing that could be suggested
would be that when treaty has been
submitted to the Senate for ratification,
no other business shall be in order UNI
til it has been disposed of
The second obstacle, that found in
framing the declaration in favor of
general arbitration so as to exclude
questions involving national policy or
sovereignty. could be disposed of by
including but theme or two in the
first arbitration treaty. 1t is best to
avoid complications, and not 10 attempt
to do too much all at once. Nothing
should be put in at first except the
questions. and these expressed
in clear, unambiguous words. In that
way we could see how the arbitration
treaty would work; and other subjects
could be included from time TO time as
the treaty should show its desirable
qualities 1t is immensely easier to add
unobjectionable themes to the original
than il is to get rid Of an
Objectionable one that has been un'
wisely included In this business, as
in no other things, the exercise of pru,
dence and caution will surely vindicate
their use

SHOOTS DIZZY POSITION.

Apostle Smoot thinks that the Cana.
dian reciprocity agreement would not
have any marked effect in its operations
u"on the markets of this country. In
this he is quite right, But he is alto
gether wrong when he follows this
with the proposition that to ratlfy it
would be destructive Of the protective
principle. How it is that measure
that would have no practical or notice.
able effect would destroy the principle
of protection, it would be hard to ex-
plain. But, the vagaries Of an in
spircd politician are impossible to un.
derstand.
Further, Apostle Smoot announces
that, as Senator, and as a Republican,
he will oppose this bill He SAYS this
in the full knowledge that he thereby
puts himself in opposition to the Presi
dent of the United States. who is the
leading Republican of the United States,
who is iurist of first quality, and a
man thoroughly devoted on principle
10 the protective policy, and better in,
ioIileu anu beitcl 9udIlncu TO express
an opinion on the question involved
than Smoot. President Taft under
stands all these questions far more
widely, more deeply, and more thor
oughly than the Apostle can possibly
he supposed to do.
so that economically. Apostle Smoot
puts himself on both sides Of the
Canadian reciprocity agreement and po-
litically he arrays himself as a Republi-
can against the Republican President,
who is by far the better authority on
the questions involved
1t is a dizzy position for the Apostle
Senator To occupy, one that is contra,
dictory and politically impossible But,
Of course, Smoot is quite blind to the
inconsistency of his position, and his
admirers find themselves involved in the
hardest kind of a task when they un-
dertake to explain his attitudes or de-
fend his positions.

THE SAINT OF THE DAY.

The Saint. of the Day is st. Patrick.
His origin is inolved in uncertainty by
rc"son of tho many places that have
claimed the distinction of being his
birthplace. His afliliation as among the
d..ferent churchly orders is unknown,
perhaps because no one cared to record
it, his character and service being so
all.embracing that nothing but the gen
eral authority of the church could en-.
tirely claim him. But there is not the
least uncertainty about the bcne6cence
and power of his work, nor of its last
ing effects, There has never been any
wavering of the affection of the vast
majority of the Irish people for st.
Patrick. He is their great religious
hero. and typical to them of the
grace and authority of the church which
they love.
All Of the people Of the so.callod
British Isles have their special patron
saints-St. George Of England, largely
mythical; ST, Andrew of Scotland, a
mere shadow; St David of Wales,
why these saints arc so little regarded,
compared with the regard for st. Pat
rick by the Irish people, is because the
English, the Scotch, and the Welsh fell
away from the worship of the church
through which these saints received their
original recognition. 1t is quite nat
ural tn with the rejection of the
church, those should. come to he little
regarded. And So we find that Of the
-four saints, st. Patrick is the only one
who has maintained his prestige; and,
indeed, he has gained and is gaining
all the time, in recognition and au.
thority
Whatever disputes may arise about
st. Patrick, there can be no dispute
as to the reality of his service
and the immense Importance of
it, 1nis is evident 10 any who may
have acquired even rudimentary
l:aowledye of his career. of the results
flowing from 1t, and of the permanent
effect of hrs teaching upon the people
to whom it was given, and their de-
scendants, who are found in every
cline the world around. And so we
a]l join in his acclaim this day, and
do what we may in his honor and in
his magnificent services to
and power over humanity, always for
good. ALWAYS uplifting, and always
against vice and ignoble CON
duct. And for this he deserves the ad
and respect of all mankind

LAND BOARD CONTRIBUTIONS.

The State Serate yesterday gave an
other evidence of its complete submis-
sion to Federal bunch" rule, when
it confirmed the Governor s appoint.
ments to the State Land Board The
un6tness of some of these appontees
has been abundantly demonstrated. The
Senate itself has been made aware of
that unfitness. So strongly was the
committee which investigated the Land
Board convinced of the wrongfulness
done by members of that Board. that
it brought In a bill making the things
specifically forbid those things; and so
what they did is not against the law.
and the committee of investigation
cleared the members on that ground.
But the committee members emphasized
their opinion that the acts were wrong
and indefensible when they introduced
the bill which made these acts crime.
The situation is thoroughly understood
by all the members of the Senate. And
if the Senators had been free to act
upon their individual judgments, there
is no doubt but that at least a portion
Of the nominations for membership in
the State Land Board would have been
rejected. But there were two reasons
which acted for confirmation. The FIRST
and most powerful was the influence
Of the ''Federal bunch,' which has
been exercised heretofore evilly upon
both branches of the legislature, fore
ing through both branchs measures that
were both indefensible and that were
repugnant to the members of eact
House. The "Federal bunchn stood as
n forceful power in favor of the con-
frmntion Of the nominations made for
membership in this board. Therefore,
it was compulsory upon the Senators
to confirm. Another reason, latent and
in the background, is the probability
which amounts practically to GER
tainty, that if the nominations had been
rejected, the Governor would not have
sent in any other names, but would
have waited until the Senate adjourned,
and then put these same individuals in

A QUARRELSOME ORGAN.

1t cannot have escaped the attention
of the Republican members of the legis'
lature that the official organ Of their
party in this city is extremely quarrel
some, imperious, and abusive. 1t re-
quires every member to come under
its domination, and unquestioningly TO
obey the behests Of itself and of the
out hesitation, and with no back talk.
Any member who refuses to do this
is at once assailed by it venomously,
abusively, and scandalously. No froth-
ings of rage, no falsehood, no back
biting, is too mean, tricky. and con
temptible for that organ to employ
against such members as have shown
a spark of independence. There is no
limit to its abuse, no bounds to its
outrageous falsifcations. No matter how
benevolent measure may be that Is
proposed by any member who comes
under it's condemnation, that measure
is assailed with ferocity, is misreprc-
sented, is attacked as injurious to the
public interests, and is defeated if pos.
sible. Every member will recall in
stances of this sort during the present
session. In fact, it is an ordinary daily
practice of the bunch organ to prosti.
tute its columns 10 vile personal as
saults OF this kind unsparing of its
political friends.
There has been an unscrupulous, un.
reserved, malignity in these assaults,
which ii is hard TO explain on any
other hypothesis than that the organ
ing for ''the boss, and that the con.
troll of the bunch cannot successfully
be assailed, At the same time, there
is no doubt but that these vicious, un
called-for attacks upon its own party
legislators. have sown the seed of dis
sension and hate IT is justifiable to
assail ones party friends when they
are preyerse and insist on doing evil
and wrongful things. But when mem
bers are in no wise guilty of wrong
dolntr when their efforts are candid,
honest, and aightforward, to be as
sailed Indignantly, abusively, and with
OF cause, leaves a wound that can
not be healed; and this is the sort of
wound which the organ has been in
ficting upon its party members in the
legislature during the whole of the ses
sion.
To say that this sort of tactics is
unwise is to draw it with mildness
incompatible with the offenses. 1t is
not only unwise. it is destructive, de
moralizing, and is certain to SOW seeds
of dissension that will raise a prolific
crop Of hate that will choke the pc.
litical life out of the selfish plotters
and now dominating autocrats.

BAD CLOVER SEED.

warning 10 farmers is sent out bv
the U. 5. Department of Agriculture
against buying clover seed which has
recently been imported into this coun-
try from Chill. Three separate shin.
ments of this seed were made. amount.
ing TO 10000 pounds. The objection to
the seed is, that it has been found con
taminated with two kinds of doddcr
seed in such proportion that $50 seeds
of the obnoxious weed would ordinarily
be sown in each square rod that is
sown with this Objectionable Chilian
seed. The so-called dodder weed is a
shrub Of the laurel family. and is re,
puted to be extremely harmful to al.
falfa and ordinary clover. Two va
rieties Of this shrub are said to be
making a growth or mat of tough
vegetation which chokes out the clover
and prevents moving.
What makes the shipments all the
more dangerous, according TO the hul.
etin, is that the clover seeds in these
shipments are of particularly fine ap.
pearance. being larger than ordinary
clover seed and apparently of the first
quality. The Department asks that,
wherever this seed is found. it be con.
fscated by the proper authorities and
DESTROYED by burning.
1t is not likely that any of this seed
will be shipped into this region. but
since the Department has given the
warning, it is possible that shipments
may be made even as far into the in
terror as this, in order to escape. if pos
sible, the official warning sent out SO

AN ARBITRATION TREATY.

1t is given out from Washington that
informal negotiations have been pro.
ceedlng for some time looking to an
arbitration treaty between the United
States and Great Britain. This is an.
other surprise to the country, but
neither startling nor. prima facie, OBJ
jectionable, provided, only, that we are
not thereby drawn into European en-
tanplements. To be sure, it is explained
that the negotiations in no way con-
template anything in the nature of an
alliance, defensive, offensive, or other
wise, between the two countries; but
If such treaty is TO be made,
it is difficult to avoid this, as by the
ratification of such treaty the two
countries would set themselves apart
from all the world, in class by them
selves; and this action might lead to
mutual cooperation in war as in many
other directions.
Two points are suggested as obstacles
to such an arbitration treaty. The first
of these is the insistence Of the U. S.
Senate on its constitutional right to
pass on every question submitted; thus
requiring separate treaty for every
case But this, if an obstacle, is one
that cannot be removed, and ought not
to be. For, under. our system Of gov.
ernment, we are obliged to have a
ratifying power aside from the Presi.
dent; and nowhere else can this power
be lodged so advantageously as in the
Senate. But it must be confessed tina,
