JORDAN DEPLORES WAR
Greatest Loss Is "Those Who
Might Have Been"

Salt Lake City, Aug. H.-David Starr
Jordan. president of Leland Stanford
Junior University. discussed The Case
Against War" at the Transmississipp
Commercial Congress here to-day ana
declared that the greatest loss to ma
ton from war was not the unreturning
brave" but those who might have been
but never were" Dr. Jordan added
international peace means mutual re-
spect and mutual trust. The i.01-mile
line which separates Canada from the
United States is an undefended border
which for nearly a hundred years has
not known a fortress or a warship nor a
gun. There is nothing Of which the two
great North American nations have a
greater right 10 be proud than this
boundary OF trust and confidence.
DR.. Jordan reviewed the history Of wars
and the money lenders who made them
possible. and said that without war taxes
each man could have his house free. We're
the money to be used I'm such fashion
The annual expenditure Of the world on
armies and navies in these times OF peace
he said. passes $500, ,Ooc.0Io. He continued:
Almost the whole story Of the rise Of
the cost OF living is told in the story or
the rise OF taxes for war debt and war
armament. The whole receipts OF all the
people OF the United States. by far the
richest nation on earth, would barely
serve 10 pay the bill for war expenses

OF the world can no longer md gain in

The speaker declared that war took the
best blood Of any country. her young and
fearless men. and that only towards re-
main, and from them came forward new
generations, who hold the history Of the
nation in their grasp. War was blamed
by the speaker for the deterioration Of the

Mix Politics
Political Hope of the State Lies With
Men Who Will Help Clean Their
OUn Political Houses

1t is only three weeks until elec-
ton day---a very important elect
ion. This is the year when all
ordinary political signs fail, and no
man can now tell just where the
present political unrest is going to
end.
1t is more n early true this year
than ever before, that neither of
the old parties presents enough
to induce many votes from the 9TH
er great party. The other way of
stating the proposition is, that no
other campaign has occurrde where
the average voter with a nominal
political choice had so coed an ex-
cuse, or reason, for staying with
his party, and not going off after
strange gods Since the Idaho su-
preme court has removed from the
state ticket the only legitimate rea-
son for third party, there are on
ly the two---the republican and tn g
democratic parties.
The Recorder never agreed with
President Taft as the republican
candidate; it was for Roosevelt all
the time, and beelieeves in him to-
day. But as between Democratic
Wilson and Republican Taft, Taft
is the unhesitating choice. He is
not cur ideal; nor is the republi-
can national organization our ideal;
but till, the heart of the party is
as coed as ever. The party tha

on August SOth, an interval Of 81
days without frost. This is a long
enough season for maturing corn.
or tomatoes, or melons, or any
the tenderest plants grcwn in the

would withstand some of these lit

The summer of 1910 was by odds
the driest Of the three. The re-
cord was begun in February of that

yeear. Only 547 inches of water,
in the form Of rain or its equiva-
lent of snow, fell the rest of that
season. To give January and Feb
ruary the average precipitation of
23 inches, would give only 8.27
inches for the year For last year,
the record is complete, a total pre-
cipitation CT 1912 inches, probably
the heaviest in years. So far this
year, up to the first of October the
precipitation was 794 inches; to civ
the rest Of the year the same aver
age as the corresponding period OF
the last two years, would make the
total CT 11.35 for the year AL
ready there has been considerable
rain and little snow this month;
sc the yeear will very likely give
between II and 2 inches.
The wettest month OF all was in
January. 1911, when the precipita-
ton was 1888 inches Most Of this
was snow, but the measurement is
given as reduced to water There
have been three months during the
time covered by this report, with
no precipitation whatever; August
of 1870 and July and August OF the
year 191. There was hardly enough
snow to measure, only 4 4 inches. in
100 during the time of this record;
but in 1911 there was 5613 inches.
and 25.25 so far this year The
heaviest rainfall in any "a hours.
was June 9th OF this year, when
