The Utah Press Association, from
what we have been able to gather has
been dominated to considerable ex.
tent by men who would propose such
an absurd and wholly "special-inter-
estized" resolution as that aimed to
gag the policy of the editors in regard
to railroad commissions. That resolu.
ton in ITSELF is opposed to the very
character of the press which should
be free and fearless in attacking or
defending any principle it may so de.
sire. TO gag the newspapers by such
balderdash, whether a railroad com.
mission is right or wrong, is enough
to brand the policy of those who sug.
gest it as baneful and opposed to the
interests of the state.
Not more than five months ago, the
Utah Press Association adopted a res

STATE REGULATION OF LIQUOR

The Republican measure designed to
regulate the liquor traffic is rapidly
rounding into form, and before long IL
will be law on the statutes of our
state. That the Republican party has
fulfilled its pledges to its constitu.
ency with the enactment OF such n
law, there can be no further doubt
True to its sacred duty of fulfilling
the wishes of the people, it has gone
steadily forward in its task of making
proper laws for the welfare of the
state.
Just what the features of the law
will be has not yet been determined
There are six or seven bills now be
fore the committee on manufactures
and commerce, some of which contain
features common to all and others are
mere rehashes. The Gardner bill is re
garded as the administration bill, and
no doubt the result will be that an
agreement will center upon this one.

MAKING CHINESE FLOWER POTS.
(From Consul General Tames T. Du.
Bots, Singapore, Straits Settle
nents.)

Chinese are pioneers in the art of
pottery. They use few implements and
the rapidity with which they construct
pots is marvellous, especially some of
the Straits Settlements potters.
The "potter's wheel" is the essen
tial part of the workman's equipment.
This Is a large flat disk OF stone re-
yolying on pivot made of tembusu
sunk in the ground. When the clay is
properly prepared 5-pound piece,
which is sufficient for a 10-inch pot,
is cut off, rolled into a ball, dabbed
with burn rice husks and placed on
the disk. The wheel is set in motion by
an assistant while the artist, who sits
On the ground and vets his hands to
keep the clap from sticking to them,
molds the pots. In speaking of this
process, j. W. Anderson says;
The workmans' left hand is gently
thrust into the center of the clay, while
his right hand is slightly pressing on
the outside to keep the whole togeth-
err, but ii is from the inside that most
OF the shaping is done; meanwhile the
wheel is made to turn once quickly.

have demonstrated that birds can be
as valuable when raised here as when

These matters were all adjusted under
the direction and control of Honorable
Court, who was fully cognizant Of all
the facts, and under such directions and
control the cases were disposed of as
explained.
Voter, do not be deceived; do not be
mislead by having this matter misrep-
resented to you in vain effort to bias
you against your present States Attor-
ney's stand upon this question, for you
will remember that he insisted that if
the young man was to be paroled by the

should refrain from drinking and visit
ing saloons. Do not allow his Opposi-
ton to persuade YOU to believing that
these isolated cases, so closely associat-
ed, establishes a precedent for future
cases, for all the facts bears Mr.. Rem
ringer out and characterizes him as
States Attorney who is fair, honest and
above reproach, and surely one who dis
charges the duty of his office and his
official oath literally, without fear, fav-
or or partially.
In conclusion, it might be Of interest
to YOU as voters and citizens Of Garrett
county to know that Mr.. Renninger, as
your States Attorney, has prosecuted
liquor cases during the year 1911 the
fines from which have amounted to more
than $500 this being the greatest amount
of fines from such sources ever received
for like period during the history of
the county. RESPECTFULLY submitted,

The Extraordinary Expenses of the
Past Legislature.

To the Editor Of the Republican:
Here Is something for the voters of
Maryland to consider beforecasting their
votes for Governor; The State senate
of 1909 of which Mr.. German was pres
ident, cost the State of MARYLAND $s2,-
$500. There were twenty-seven mem
bers in the senate. Mr.. German made
the following appointments, which, of
course, were concurred in by the men,
bers Of that body: Twenty-seven en-
crossing clerks. thirty-five laborers,
eleven stenographers, twelve doorkeep-
ers, Ito keep two DOORS, six bill clerks,
three would have been plenty), twelve
messengers, Ito do nothing, two pc
licemen, three pages, one keeper of re-
firing room, and one assistant to do
nothing, one keeper Of toilet room and
one assistant, five watchmen, two post
masters, tone could easily do the work..
Those who kept the toilet room did
nothing but sit in easy chairs and read.
There We're one hundred and seventy
five employees to wait on twenty-seven
senators. That is the way the peoples
money was squandered.
The House Of Delegates cost the State
SIG, 993.57. There were one hundred
and one members, having one hundred
and forty-fve employees, as follows:
Thirty engrossing clerks, twelve stem
ographers, seven folders, ten doorkeep-
ers, to keep two doors; four bill clerks,
three messengers, five police officers,
(all the time | was there ! saw but two),
seven pages, two postmasters, q never
saw but one on duty, four keepers Of
cloak room, tone could easily have per
formed the duties).
Add the expenses of the Senate and
House and you have the enormous sum
Of $3.50. ssL55.
Should one take the contract to fill
all the Offices and perform all the service
required in both houses for $I00,0oO00,
the contractor would make small for
tune for himself.

statement to come to me and will
show them record proof Of the same.

citizens Of the town of Oakland and vi
cinity interceded with his Honor Judge
Keedy and States Attorney Renninger
in behalf OF the young man, setting
forth that he is a member of one of the
reputable families of the town and that
his good mother was at that time in
such physical condition that the know
ledge of her sons wrongdoing would
certainly cause her death, she having
had no knowledge of any of these facts.
When the matter was first presented to
Mr.. Renninger he replied by saying that
the whole affair would have to be pre-
scented to His Honor Judge Keedy and
| if he looked upon their request with
favor he, Mr.. Renninger, would not OPP
pose the parole of the young man in the
custody Of the Court provided one of
the conditions of the parole would be
that the young man refrain from drink
ing. Upon,these conditions the young
man was paroled by Judge Keedy for
the period Of three years, and is now
enjoying his freedom, but in the Gus
tody of the Court and is required to re-
port from time to time.
1t will be seen that these cases were
very closely associated, and that it
would have been manifestly unjust and
unfair under these circumstances that
these saloon men should have been pros
ecuted further than they were when
the young man whose term could have
been ten years in the penitentiary for
the one crime and also punished for The
other, was patroled by His Honor Judge
Keedy at the solicitation Of influential
citizens, which parole the writer be
Ioyes was proper and just, and he does
not want to leave any citizen under the
/ impression that there were not sufficient
facts presented to the Court on behalf
Of the young man to merit and warrant
the Court to exercise the broad Giscre-
ton conferred upon it.
But citizen and voter. does it not APP
pear to you that when these sales were
made to this Young man upon false rep
reservations made by him to the saloon
man. and that the saloon man sold him
in the utmost good faith, sincerely be-
] lieving him to be p years Of age, that
/ it would be unfair and unjust to these
men who are lawfully licensed to con-
/ duct their business, and whose business
are placed upon as legitimate a plane as
any other business by the laws of the
State of Maryland, by imposing a great
err penalty upon them than was imposed,
towit the payment of the costs in all
! three cases. Your writer contends that
under the circumstances they should
not have been made to pay the costs in
the case, and he believes that the mis-
/ demeanor of selling liuqor to minors, the
penalty for which is $50 fine, when it is
done through honest mistake and in the
