We come to this, the metropolis Of Southern

which we have incurred. We have learned how
the good, loyal citizens of Cedar City and imrned-

couraging obstacles to make known to the world
at large the bounteOus resources of these valleys
and mountains; how they have faithfully stood be-

aged it to proclaim the unlimited opportunities
that here await him who will grasp them.
Approaching as we do this loyal devotion of the
leading business men to this paper we have come
among them with the firm resolve to make it
newspaper representative of commercial and
social conditions of which every true citizen
within the territory which it serves may be Justly

A Sacrifice to Speed Mania.

II was terrible tragedy, the wrecking of the
Titanic Two lives were Utah's contribution to
that appalling calamity. The more than 1000 lives
that went out were horrible sacrifice to the speed
mania of the present day. BY every possible
means, we are seeking to save time-the automo-

mighty ocean steamships; in them we dash on, and
on, constantly urging greater speed. The trains

LA TOILETTE TO
- FIGHT FOR TAFT
Will Attack Roosevelt for Break
ing Faith With Him as
Candidate

WASHINGTON, D. c. Special
Senator Robert NJ. La Toilette left
Washington yesterday bound for
North Dakota, where, 1t is said, he
will tell the voters that Theodore
Roosevelt broke faith with him.
Friends of the senator say that La
Toilette will charge Mr.. Roosevelt
with bad faith, in that he had the
word Of Clifford Pinchot that under
no circumstances would Roosevelt be
a presidential candidate" and that
while he would take no active steps
in the campaign La Toilette would
have his unqualified endorsement.
These friends say that when Sena-
tor Ia Toilette learned of Colonel
Roosevelt's intention to stump North
Dakota it aroused his fighting spirit,
and he determined to leave at once
to violate his own declared policy and
make the war a personal one.

SENTENCED TO KEEP
SOBER AFTER HE WEBS

NEW YORK Special On the
strength of Minnie's willingness TO
marry him as soon as he can get a
license Isaac Schiff took two glasses
of we'll sugared whiskey Monday af-
ternoon on the way from her house in
Jersey City to the ferry, and topped
that foundation with five glasses OF
sliwowitz in the neighborhood of
Canal Street and the Bowery. BY
that time he had no secrets from the
general public. The result was that
he landed in the Night Court on COM
plant of Policeman Archibald, OF Traf-
fic Squad B, whom Schiff had rolled
in the gutter because Archibald failed
to declare himself first, last and all
the time for Minnie.
"If you knew Minnie" Schiff ex-
planned to Magistrate Breen, you
would understand me. No other man
ever won such a prize as Minnie. We
are going to be married soon. From
the minute she takes charge of me
there will be no more sliwowitz, no
more sweet whiskey, no booze of any
kind for Schiff. but steady work and
happy home all the time. So
have just been crowding all the hur-
rah of a lifetime now. Don't you see
the point. judge?"

ARMS ARE SHIPPED
ACROSS BORDER
Mexican Railway Official Objects
to Contraband Goods From
This Country.

WASHINGTON, d. c. Special
Senator Guggenheim, of Colorado, has
requested the State and Treasury De-
partments to seize several consign~
ments of arms and ammunition at va
riOus points along the Mexican Dor
der. which he claims as contraband
In a letter which Senator Guggen-
helm has transmitted TO Secretaries
Huntington Wilson and MacVeagh,
and which supposedly comes from an
American consul in Mexico, the state
ment is made that the goods should
be seized on the ground that attempts
are being made to smuggle them
across the line. but that the real pur-
pose in preventing the shipments is
to bring about the downfall of the
rebel army at Chihuahua.
The letter states that the president
Of the Mexican National Railway has
telegraphed Henry Taft, of New York
city, brother of the President; II. G.
Pierce, and other financiers of this
country, urging them to use their in
fluence to force the confiscation of
the arms and ammunition.
The letter argues that unless the
present rebellion is shortly quelled.
riot and revolution will continue to
hold sway in Mexico, and that Ameri-
can capital invested there will be in
danger of confscation.
Secretary MacVeagh held a confer
ence with Assistant Secretary Curtis

BRYAN OPPOSES
HARMON'S VIEWS
HE SAYS THE PEOPLE ARE VERY
APT TO BE JUST TO
THE JUDGES.

COLUMBUS, OHIO. Special.-Greet-
ed by crowd that filled the conVen-
ton hall to overlooking, William Jen-
nings Bryan Tuesday addressed the
fourth Ohio Constitutional Convention.
In his speech Mr.. Bryan advocated the
initiative and referendum, one of the
big issues before the convention, TAX
ing a view opposite to that of Gov
ernor Harmon. who in an address
several weeks ago urged the charter
makers TO wait until the initiative and
referendum had been tried in some
other State.
Upon his arrival here Mr.. Bryan
was met by a committee OF the Con-
stitutional Convention and escorted to
hotel whcr- he met political lead
ers. After his address he again held
a conference.
In his address, MIR. Bryan said:
THE only difference between the
recall, as now proposed, and impeach-
ment, as ii has been employed, is that
in impeachment the trial Is before a
body of officials. while the recall
places the decision in the hands of
the people.
Experience has shown that the de-
fects Of our government are not in the
people themselves, but in those who,
acting as representatives Of the peo-
pie, embeZzle power and turn to their
own advantage the authority given
them for the advancement of the pub
lie welfare"
Concerning courts and recall OF
judges, Mr.. Bryan said:
The judge. like every other officer,
is the servant of the people; and there
is no reason why he should be made
Independent of a permanent public
opinion upon questions fundamental
in character. The people are much
more apt to deal justly with judges
than they are to receive justice at the
hands of judges who distrust the good
intent of the masses.
THE judge who would be swerved
by fear of a recall would not be fit
for the place, anyhow. If there is
any position in which we need rigid,
uncompromising uprightness, 1t is
upon the bench, and the recall instead
OF menacing the independence of the
judiciary is more likely to improve
the character of those who occupy
judicial positions"

The letter read:
Dear Mr.. Levine: You have many

you are doing nothing to protect them
from harm.

will make himself known to you within
few days. your Willingness to pay for
our protection, your horses and your
person will be safe.
In view of the size of your stable we

would be a reasonable price for the
