on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday
evenings of next week to witness the
production of great historical and
religious drama by Utah author, Ez-
IA. G.. Robinson, an attorney of Salt
Lake. The play "Zalmona'i is based
directly on one of the most fascinat
ing stories in the Book OF Mormon
and follows closely the sacred book
from which 1t originated. Vividly and
sonorous blank verse with beautiful
music interspersed, the struggles Of
ANCIENT kings for supremacy ON this
continent long before Columbus, is
told and it abounds in dramatic in.

b The author has been working on the
play for over thirteen years. since
his college days. He carried with hiIa
the partly written work through five
years spent in the mission field, and
has given all possible time and re.
search to the manners and customs
Of the people of those days when as
theProphet Joseph said, ''1he might.
lest nations the world has even seen"
fiourished on this land.
~ The production has been undertaken
by company the members of which
have every confidence that Mr.. Rob.
inson has produced masterpiece and
no expense has been spared to give
1t a worthy setting. Scenery, cos
tunes and stage trappings are of
the most magnificent nature and the
entire production including the great
chorus and ballet will be given here
just as presented on the stage of the
Salt Lake theatre. lisaf g 1ry Ya-
The presenting company has been
chosen from the professional ranks

CHOKING THE PREFERENTIAL PRIMARY

The presidential primary proposition
fore the republican national committee.
1t is confdentially asserted that the
Taft influence killed it, The committee
went further than refusal to provide
for a preferential primary. It worded
the call in way to give il privilege
to reject delegates chosen by a pri-
mary under state law. Thus repubn-
cans in states which have presidential
primary laws may if the committee
chooses be barred from representation
by delegates chosen legally and by
preference Of the voters.
Whether or not ii would attempt to
exercise this autocratic power is an
other question. The fact remains that
the committee assumed such power and
that the fear that preferential pri-
mary in Ohio might result in the loss
Of part Of the delegation of that state
action. The eYec, will be to choke the
preference primary for the time and
assist toward the denomination of the
president In a certain sense it is
advantageous to Taft as a convention
candidate It's effect on the party and
party success is certain 10 be bad.
President Tafts political household
brigade seems determined to force his
nomination by methods which render
his election impossible.
