DEMAND 100000
For Alleged Photos of Interior
of Mormon Temple

SALT LAKE Cry, UTAH, Sept. 16.
The first presidency of the Nor
mon church today exposed a scheme
to blackmail the church authorities
by the exhibition of series of pho.
tographs alleged to be of interior
scenes in the Mormon temple, which
no one is allowed to enter unless he
be devout member of the church.
A letter received from New York
from a former resident of this city
contained seven Photographs, which
the writer offered the first presiden.
ey for 500, 900. Replying, the first
presidency wrote that he did not
desire to enter into negotiations with
thieves and blackmailers.
Church authorities stated the
photographs probably were obtained
recently when the temple was being
cleaned. Church leaders say they do
not care whether the photographs
are published or not, adding by way
of explanation that 800 "gentiles"
were allowed to go through the
temple just before its dedication.

RESPECTING THE JUDGES

James Manahsn. Minneapolis
LAWYER. delivered an address before
the recent session of the Minnesota
Bar Association. Several speeches
preceding that of MIR. Manahan had
reference to "the threatened de-
struction of the judiciary" Mr..
Manahan said:
1T is urged that the recall of the
judges would subject the judiciary
to the clamor of the mob. !"
The man who believes the people
are mob does not believe in re-
publican form of government. He
should leave this country. He has
no place here; his spirit is treason
able.
Respect the judges, of course;
the same as we respect men in other
offices who do their duty; no more.
no less. We can not respect them
If they are arrogant or tyrannical
or despotic. And if they are not
held responsible they become to a
greater or less degree arragant, ty-
rannical and despotic. They are en-.
titled to the respect earned by the
Justice and wisdom of their judg-
ment, and this should be measured
not by them. but by that sovereign
ty that creates them. Let their
work be done in the light Of the
power they serve. The more direct
and severe the light, the greater
will shine the glory of their work
well DONE"
Mr.. Manahan's words ought to be
posted upon every highway in
America.
Respect the judges, of course,
but let their power be done in the
light of the power they serve. The
more direct and severe the light,
the greater will shine the glory of
their work well done. "-Commoner.

JUDICIARY RECALL

President Taft is likely to be re-
membered in history as the man
who universalized in America the
principle Of the judiciary recall.
His attempt to discipline the people
Of Arizona and to make State
Constitution by Presidential veto
has given an immense impetus to
the movement for popular sovereign
ty. and has especially stimulated the
enthusiasm of those who are work
ing for the recall in its widest
application.
Determined steps are already be-
ing taken in Arizona to put the
judiciary recall into the Constitution
as soon as that Commonwealth shall
become a State.
When Mr.. Taft goes to Denver
next month in his swing around the
circle he will find there a lively
agitation for the same good cause,
and he may take what satisfaction
he can in rejecting that he is him
self a prime mover in it. Last
Tuesday the Direct Legislation
League of Colorado upon
putting the recall into the State
Constitution-voted down a proposal
to modify and limit the measure,
and decided for the most thorough.

on the express ground that the
President had challenged the pri.
mary rights Of the people, and that
the challenge should be squarely
met.

A NEW PLATFORM
Is Needed for the Many
Kinds Of Politics Of
Today

Some of the antics which have
marked the situation in Congress
and in the country of late in regard
to the tariff and other issues recall
a reversible platform which was
constructed more than fifty years
ago by the Pontiac (Mich.) Jack
sonian to meet a somewhat similar
condition. At that time the nation
was on the eve of a great political
campaign involving the most mo-
mentous consequences. After Sc.
we're mental struggles on the part
of the editor, the Jacksonian gave
birth to a platform which it was
hoped would suit all concerned. 1t
was a flexible platform. If one be-
lieved in the abolition of slavery,
here were his principles. If he in
sisted on slavery and secession from
the Union, he needed to seek no
further for an expression of his
faith. And if he supported the
Union, the Constitution and all the
rest, he could wrap the drapery of
his couch about him and lie down to
pleasant dreams with this remark
able platform for pillow. In read
ing this Michigan mans unique pro-
duction, it should be observed that
the first column is to meet the re.
quirements of the Secessionist par
ty; the second those of the Abo-
litionists, and the whole together
those of the democrats. The plzt-
form follows:
Hurrah for The old Union s
Secession Is n curse
We fight for The Constitution
The Confederncy Is a league with hell
We love Free Speech
The Rebellion Is treason
We glory in A free press
Separation Will not be tolerated
We must succeed At every hazard
We fight not for The negro's freedom
Reconstruction Must be obtained
The Union We love
We love not The negro
We never said Let the Union Slide
We want The Union as It was
Foreign intervention Is played out
We cherish The old flag
The stars and bars is Haunting lie'
We venerate The habcas corpus
Southern chivalry Is hateful

Finances and Markets

New York, April Grading fell
to the low point of the year today
on the stock exchange. In fact, ii
was the dullest day since July 1908.
The level of prices did not vary per-
ceptibly at any time during the en-
tire session and even specialties
which were features yesterday were
comparatively quiet.
Bonds were more active relatively
than stocks and the sale of American
Tobacco, American Telegraph and Tel
ephope and Bethlehem Steel bonds
was large.
Various reports that Union Pacific
was soon to engage in new financing
took the shape of the statement that
the road was listing S50,000.00O of
new common stock at $50. The report
lacked official confirmation and re-
ceived little credence in the best in
formed quarters.
One of a few optimistic uterances
which have come to the attention of
Wall street recently was attributed
today to high operating official of
the Hartman lines that the outlook
for gross earnings of the roads for
the remainder OF the calendar year
was very promising.
A compilation of February railroad
returns show a decrease of 1874 per
cent on the average net earnings.
Gross earnings of fifteen railroads for
March reveal a slight increase.

Why Should Amy Limit
Be Set

Is there any good reason why any
limit should be set at which men and
women are supposed to be too old for
work, or for participation in the ac-
tivities of life? Why should there
be an arbitrary fixing of a date at
which persons are supposed to gath
er up their interests, like children
gather up their playthings before en-
tering upon school duties, and put
them away forever, then turn to the
slippers and gown of old age and
assume lettering step and a dod
dering attitude towards life?
There is absolutely none. Certainly
not because some wise man in this or
some other age has said that at forty
human activities begin to wane, and
a little further on the person who has
the temerity to try to live should be
done away with.
The human brain and the human
intelligence should continue to grow
to the last hour of life, whether that
last hour comes at forty or a hun
bred and forty. All the years up to
forty have really been the school
years of life wherein men and women
have been learning the theories Of
living At forty. they begin to put
them into practice. With this new
turn of life the reflective powers be
come greater. The impetuosity of
youth, tits true, vanishes, but in its
place comes something better and
INSTRUMENTATION and a real en-
thysiasm.
Certain holy orders require long
years of study and prayer of those
who would become leaders and teach
ers. Life exacts the same thing Of
those who would grapple with its
great problems and theories. And
while the novitiate and the inter
mediary years years are not spent i'm
the cloister or retreat of any kind
but out in the open field of com
petition before the eyes of the world.
the exactions are as great.
Reflection means the assimilation
of the food thought we have for the
tasks that are required OF us. There
are plenty of men and women who
have achieved success who are ex-
cellent examples of the prolongation
of activities far beyond the arbitrary
examples of men and women who
have begun the real work of their
lives after forty and kept at it until
extreme old age. But it must be
understood that these people were
not idle in their younger days. Con-
sciously or unconsciously they were
laying the foundation of what was to
come later But in those younger
days they were absorbing the lessons
of life as they were unfolding
Why, then take the pessimistic
view of those whose trade seems to
be to create dullness when the prac-
tical demonstration of the longevity
of the mind as well as that of the
physical parts is to be found on
every hand, when men and women
are every day demonstrating that
there is no time in life when one
may not achieve success if one Is
only master over self?

The Renefieent Octopus

California insurgents since the cleo
ton last fall have let no day pass
without giving thanks that the state
has been freed from Southern Pacific
domination; that the power reserved
10 the people has been actually re-
stored to them and that never again
will the state be subjected to the
grinding process under the heel of
the Southern Pacific.
The grievance against the railroad
company was mainly that it controll-
ed conventions and elections, and so
filled the offices which of right be-
long to the faction always which is
denied access to them.
1t was incidentally charged that
the railroad so Unanswered that legis-
Iation and judicial decisions were
procured by the railroad company to
the disadvantage of tax payers gen.
orally
But there is one privilege Of the
railroad company which was not
abated by the upheaN al of last No
member. the right to expend large
sums of money in the interest of the
public.
We are minded of this by the pre-
dicament of the California Develop
ment company for sometime in the
hands of a receiver who doesn't know
what TO be with it. The enterprise
turned out to be too big for private
capital There was a complication
in the shape of Mexican concessions
necessary to the plans of the COM
pany whose operations extended
across the border.
The company and the farmers first
discovered four years ago that even
an octopus may have been created for
a beneficent purpose. That was
when the Colorado tore through its
bank and threatened the existence
of the company as well as the whole
whole state of California and even
the United States itself, all were
helpless. The Southern Pacific was
invoked by President Roosevelt to act
as savior The valley was saved at
an expense of 100000. for whose
expenditure we believe a reluctant
congress has not yet wholly reim-
bursed the railroad company.
Now the Southern Pacific has been
called upon again. This time it is
proposed that all interests in the irri-
CATION company. the Mexican con-
cessions and all shall be merged in
the Southern Pacific company, not as
a permanent holder but as a restorer
of order out of chaos. the property
later to be turned back to some com
pany or some body capable of keeping
il running.
There is of course objection to
such a solution of the grave prob
lem which confronts the valley but
the DIRECTORS have so far offered no
other-looking to public ownership,
the thing desired by all.
The Imperial Valley Press in a long
discussion of the situation finds no
alternative and says:
"As the Southern Pacific was the
only agency competent to deal with
the physical problem of the river in
1906, so it is the only agency capable
of solving the financial and admin
istrative problems OF the irrigation
system today. The good faith Of
the company must be presumed, and
it is the part of wisdom for the peo-
pie of the valley to abstain from do
ing anything to obstruct the process
of settlement

the closing days of the last congress

the house members whose eager
acceptance of the reciprocity

ordinary session. But now that
the session is a fact, they feel that
the eyes of the country are upon
