The tobacco growers Of Kentucky
know who their friends are. They
have never asked favor at the
hands Of the Democrats that it has
not been granted. Every beneficial
act on the Statute Books was placed
there by Democrats. The Republi-
can party is the mother of trusts. 1t
gave them birth, and has nurtured
them for years at the expense of the
people. This includes the Tobacco
Trust which has oppressed and i'm
poverished the farmers of Kentucky.

ber Of these was reduced by the school
election Of last December.
The Tribune does not care for a mere
name in this connection The fact that
bitter partisan candidate presents
his candidacy under the name of non
partisanship does not in the least re
Iieye the situation. We do not fall for
such clumsy device as that We do
not believe that an imp OF Satan would

upon his breast the legend, 81 am an

tial depravity can be changed by put
ting on cloak of piety, nor that
thing wholly loathsome is to be
cleansed by coat of whitcwash.
The Smoot organ S claim of incon-
sIstcncy on the part Of The Tribune
simply means that The Tribune has not
lent itself to the partisan schemes Of
the Federal bunch in the matter Of
school control and school elections.
That is all there is TO it, and on that
basis we are entirely content to rest

A BELATED ADMISSION.

The Dcseret News at last comes out
in open confession OF the prevalence
of polygamy in Utah In It's issue of
Saturday February 4th, speaking of the
Hcndrick article III the February Nc
CIure IS, it said:
Burton j. Hendricks second article on
The Mormon Revival of Polygamy"
gives many instances OF polygamous mar
rages that have taken place since the
manifesto was issued. and proves posi-
lively that plural marriages are now the
rule among the Mormous, and that they
are sanctioned by the Mormon church.
This is a valuable testimonial as
coming from the chief organ OF the
church it is complete Endorsement
of Mr. Hcndrick S conclusions on the
poygamist situation in Utah, and at
the same time is an admission that the
News has coptumaciously denied hithcr-
TO. It is, also, n valuable testimonial
To the fact that the magazine review
editor Of the News has Il better idea
of the true situation here than its edi-
torial writer, as we'll as more sense.

united in policy and combined to keep
up excessive rates, we are not able to
see the desperate culpability OF an
agent for a new company, or one not
in the combine, in endeavoring to en-
croach upon its preserves and getting
insurance away from it.
This bill is certainly 4 very impor-
tant one. and it should be discussed
in all its phases before being enacted.
There is no reason why legislation OF
this kind should be directed to the fos-
tering of monopolies, or the strength
ening Of combinations already entered
into. any more than legislation should
do the same thing in other forms of
business. A full discussion will get mt
the right of the matter. And In the
meantime, the Legislature need not be
in any special hurry about this bill
1t can take its time and get all the
light possible before legislatiDg. 1t IL
far easier to correct a mistake before
the legislation is enacted than after
And so, the Legislature may we'll be
cautious, conservative, and at the same
time thorough and progressive.

A PARTIsAN's DIscoNTENT.

When The Tribune made editorial
mention Of the address OF the Rev.
Elmer /. Goshen at Provo. Postmaster
Glove Of that city, who was mentioned
in our comment, asked to have his
position publicly stated through these
columns That was done, and we made
reply fit for the occasion. And so, the
incident closed But the Smoot organ,
not willing to have it that way. comes
forward with n show Of It's discomfort
with the attitude Of The Tribune on
this question. And it undertakes TO
cite certain inconsistencies on the part
of this paper, this Inconsistency being
simply that The Tribune did not con

INSURANCE POINTS.

We note that there is discussion
more or less animated in regard to the
insurance measures proposed at the
present session of the Utah Legis!a
ture. What may be termed the main
bill has some provisions in it that have
not been discussed. so far as we know
and we will here make mention OF
three points in 1T.
First. it provides that a qualified in
surauce man must be appointed insur
ancc commissioner But what kind OF
insurance Is a man expected to be ia
miliar with7 If it is life insurance
that is one thing. If it is accident in.
surance, that is another thing. If is
is fire insurance, that is altogether
different from either. If those words
were left out Of the bill, the Governor
In making the appointment would have
an Insurance man if he chose. or he
might choose a man who IS simply Il
plain business man of sufficient ca
pacity to grasp the situation. The
words used are unduly hampering Oh
the Governor, and they raise questions
that need not to be raised.
Another provision is one which for
bids the insurance agent to discount a
note which be may accept as a consid
GRAFTON for the insurance policy. This
besides being unbusiness like. would be
absolutely nugatory, save as restric
tion on home companies. AS 10 com
panies whose headquarters are in other
States, the agent could send the note
10 headquarters, Just as he would send
so much cash, and the company, wher
ever it might be located in any East
ern city. could discount the note in de
fiance Of any statutes to the contrary
in Utah, Il is not worth while to put
in an absolutely ineffective clause OF
this kind, one which does not bind ar
outside company, but would bind 4
home company.
Another is the noteworthy "twist
err clause. 1t forbids and almost
makes 1t a crime for an agent to solicit
one who is insured in given company
TO give up that company and insure
! in some other in which the soliciting
agent may be interested 1t may be
that "twisting. as this is called, is a
very rcprehensIble device. We are not
able TO understand, however. why it is
SO disreputable. nor why it is not Just
as open TO an agent TO solicit insurance
from one who is already insured as
| from one who is not. 1t may be that
further light on this point would show
the utter repreheDsibleness of "twist
ing but like the man from Missouri
we should like to be shown. 1t is
all in the matter of competition; and

BUSINESS AND TRADE.

In matters Of business, the week has
seen the opening Of the aviation meet,
which is surely to be a great attraction
to every one in the region around
about, for great distances in every
direction, 1t was a gusty day yester-
day for the beginning, and opening
was deferred, but doubtless the aviators
will stay with the meet until they are
able to give public satisfaction as to
the things they can do.
The week has shown, also, the pass
age of the bill which will provide for a
State capitol, and the measure is now
in the hands Of the Governor, who will
sign it during the week, Work is to be,
gin on this as soon as it is possible TO
negotiate the bonds and get the plans
in satisfactory shape.
Forward steps were taken, also, to-
ward the construction of the much
needed administration building for the
University Of Utah, and this will
doubtless be begun as soon as the final
steps in legislation are taken and the
plans can be perfected. The bill for
the gymnasium for the Agricultural
College is also getting along smoothly
The bill for the setting apart Of n Ger
tam percentage of the States revenue
for the University, the Agricultural
College. and the Normal School, is in
good shape, and doubtless this legisla
tion will be finally approved, much tc
the benefit of the institutions named
On Friday direct appeal was made
to the Commercial Club in this city
for Salt Lake to join in practical eff
forts with Colorado to build shor,
line railway from Denver to Salt
Lake, the aim being the boring of q
tunnel through the continental divide
opening a short-line gateway, first tc
the Moffat line, and presumably tc
other lines that might wish to use it
since the idea is to have the State bore
this tunuel with convict labor. The
reply OF the Commercial Club was that
everything possible to do would be done
at this end Of the line to further the
enterprise.

TAFT's STRONG PLEAS.

President Taft offers additional cvi-
dence of his carnestncss in his sup
port of the Canadian reciprocity agree
ment by going on the stump to advo,
cate its ratification He spoke in Co,
lumbus, Ohio, making Il direct appeal
10 the American farmer, and proving
that reciprocity with the Dominion
would not iniurc tho farmer in any
way His address was to an enormous
crowd, and his citations of precedcnts,
his showing of figures as to prices of
produce and of farm lands were en-.
tirey conclusive on the question, II
any farmer went away after hearing
that address with the idea that he was
going to be injured if the agreement
should be ratified. that farmer holds to
prejudice rather than TO reason,
Yesterday, President Taft delivered
an address on the Same subject before
the Joint session of the Legislature of
Illinois. in Springfield, showing the diff
ference between this agreement and n
treaty. and giving strong reasons for
ratifying the agreement as made by the
administration. He took up one by
one the alarmst theories that have
been propounded in speculative oppo.
sition to this agreement, and showed
the baselessness of all of them. When
he insisted that no better step could be
taken in the interest Of 4 reasonable
policy Of protection than the approval
of this treaty. he was on strong ground,
not only economically and traditional
lv, but from the standpoint OF protcc-
tion and Republican policies. He in.
sisted that now is the time to adopt
this agreement and get into accord
with our neighbors on the north. Prior
so making this speech, the President
had made a plea for ratification in the
short stop that he made in Urbana.
In the evening the President made
an address on the same subject nj
Springfield, before tho Lincoln club. II
is distinctly encouraging to see Presl
dent Taft waking up and getting into
action on this and other matters which
he has at heart. 1T has apparently
been assumed by Congress that Prcsi
dent Taft would occupy the aloof at
titude toward this question that he
occupied during the special session OF
Congress on the tariff revision, unit
it was too late for him to make cffec
tive protest against the swindhng ma
ture of that enactment. But evidently
President Taft learnt his lesson ther
and there, and he does not propose tc
| let Congress run away with him any
more, He is doing immense service tc
his country in this speaking tour in be
half of Canadian reciprocity; and if he
hold fast to his threat to call an extra
session Of Congress If this session does
not ratify that agreement it is sure
thing that he will win. In the mean
time the agreement of the House com
mittee on Ways and Means to make
Il favorable report on ratification
proves that the Presidents efforts arc
becoming effective.

Authorities agree that the mining
situation in Utah is the most satisfac-

been time when TIntic, for instance,
has crowded so many important dis

points to a highly satisfactory mining
