WHAT HAS HAPPENED7

The Deseret News on Thursday even
| ing devoted large big type semi
| editorial on the first page to the en-
forcement OF The doctrine that no one
| ought to have third term in the
Presidential office. 1t very properly
based this deduction upon the precept
and example of President Washington.
There is no doubt of the republican
utility Of hat doctrine; no one should
office, for the very plain reason that
third term would be liable to lead
TO a fourth term. and so on lndetl-
natcly, after the Diaz fashion in
Mexico.
This lead of the Dcseret News was
followed yesterday morning in hand
some order by the Sn,oot organ, which
quoted and emphasized Col Roose-
Welt s declaration of Novem ber 3, 1904,
that he would observe the wise custom
which limited the President to two
terms, regarding the substance and
not the form This was followed
Immediately by his emphatic declara-
tou that 'Eunder no circum stances will
be candidate for or accept another
nomination. This was absolutely uu.
qualified, and without any limitation,
Three years later in 1907. he reiterated
the same declaration OF remuneration,
saying ''I have not changed and shall
not change that decision thus an
nounced. -
All this is Interesting, and it is espe
cially interesting in Utah, where this
sort OF insistence upon that declaration
from those sources is both strange and
unexpected. 1t will be remembered
that Col. Roosevelt, while President,
was quoted as the special friend of the
Saints, man who would 20 to almost
any length TO serve them. He did, in
fact, 60 to an extreme length in serv-
ing them in the matter of the Smoot
Senatorship, twisting that matter so
that il was made n political question in
place Of question of the record in
the case, and the party vote. under the
Roosevelt direction, seated Smoot.
Now the interesting question is,
what has happened to detach the ale
glance of the brethren to the Colonel IS
brass band chariotf Evidently, there
has been something done or said that
has not come to public notice, but
which the church leaders are aware of,
that puts Col Roosevelt in their black
list, The public is immensely inter
ested in this, and would like right we'll
TO know what is the matter. There is
certain Roosevelt clique in this State
which is clsmoring for him, in spite
OF All his rcnunciations and in spite Of
the duplicity and bad faith that would
be manifested by him in case he again
became candidate FOR President.
There would be no reason. prima facie,
why the church leaders should not be
in with this clique If the old feeling
towards Roosevelt still remains It.

While thinness may not be dis

that needs attention. Under the nour-

An ounce of flesh is better than a

that the best possible demonstration
of the forming powers of Sa-

He offers to pay for the Samose in
case it does not give satisfaction. No
stronger proof than this can be given

University of Kansas. Sept. lids
proving a tradition among bottiers,
c. c. Young and n. P. Sherwood, water
analysts of the Kansas State Board OF
Health and members of the state. uni

suits of experiments which show that
it is possible for bacteria to live in
pop, soda water and carbonated soft
drinks.
The experts recommend that no
water should be used in the manu-
facture of a carbonated drink that is
in the least suspicious, and If doubt
full water is the only source of supply,
this should be subjected to treatment
by some method of sterilization, with
subsequent alteration through a
trustworthy and efficient filter.
It was a common belief among man
ufacturers that so long as the water
was clear and sufficiently soft, to car
