form Of which this is one. If they now
undertake to repudiatc that pledge, it
will be all the worse for the party; for
then the people will not be able 20
know what part Of the Democratic plat
form is considered binding by the
party, aud what is considered neg
ligible.
We trust that the House will get over
its panic on this proposition, and pro-
cecd without delay TO vote on this
Works amendment to the Constitution,
which will forever shut out such ambi-
tious demagogy as Colonel Roosevelt "a
aspiration to q third term, and any
such bad faith as would be involved
in the reputation Of the Democratic
platform which pledged the party to
ono term for any man in the Presi-
dency. The path Of honesty and sue
cess in this matter is the path also Of
good faith and the keeping OF n fair
pledge with the country.

REoRGANIZING THE ARMY.

We arc glad to see that President
Taft is taking steps, in accordance
with the recommendations of General
Wood, to make the army Of the United
States in fact an army. The plan out.
lined in the dispatches OF yesterday
morning contemplates not only tho as
sembling together Of the scattered
fragments of the regiments, but of get
ting the regiments into actual bri-
gades, and the brigades into divisions;
all this being in accord with the best
ideas Of military science. Indeed so
far as the army Of the United States is
concerned, it has been right along a
mere tumble Of scattered fragments, in.
coherent, impossible to utilize in any
real military movement, and useful
only for the commercial advantage OF
having army posts at one place or an.
other in the country.
Under this reorganization of the
army as in thv plan referred to, there
will be four divisional departments;
Eastern, Central. Western, and South.
ern. The headquarters will be at Gov
ernor's Island, Chicago, San Francisco
and San Antonio; and the troops will
be assembled for the most part in the
geographical divisions as indicated.
This does not necessarily mean the
abandonment OF any Of the military
posts, particularly such q post as Fort
Douglas, which will unquestionably be
needed because Of it's sanitary advan
tages and the convenience Of access
and Of distributing forces from there
to any point in the east, west, north OF
south.
AS we have said heretofore In con
sidering this plan Of concentrating the
army, and making real military force
Of it, the chief defect in it is in moi
providing specifically for reserve posts
such as Fort Douglas. 1t is not vel
to have the army all on the exterior
lines; there should be reserves, and
the reserve posts should be situated as
Fort Douglas is. with a view to the
easy concentration and use Of troops al
any point where they may be needed,
The great merit of the order, how
ever, is that, for the first time since
the Civil War, it undertakes to intro
duce into the army real military
spirit and real military effective
ness

HARDLY WORTH DENYING.

uTAH,s LOST CHANCE.

Utah has lost her chance 10 bc the
State which would give the final rat
fication that would put the income tax
amendment to the Constitution IN
force, making it a part of that grcut
| instrument This is nil the more TO be
regretted. since the refusal of Utah
! TO do this involves distinct breach
of faith with the people, and disbonor
10 the party in power in this State.
But perhaps the leaders of this party
| think they are already so dshonorcd
that few more filthy patches of
faith breaking will not be noticed.
The Tribune has repeatedly urged
the Utah legislatures, that of 1911
which was explicitly pledged TO the
ratification of this amendment, and
the present legislature, which could
also have redeemed the faith and
credit of the party and the State, TO
proceed with the ratification Of this
amendment The legislature OF 1911
refused to keep faith with the people,
aud the amendment was rejected in
one house Of the legislature. The
present legislature has shown a great
Hardness as TO this matter, has ta-
ken but belated steps to conform to
the pledges Of the party which is in
control Of it. and will probably share
the dishonor involved in the pledge
breaking of the legislature Of 1911.
The income tax amendment is rat
fled without any help from Utah,
it is ratified over the objection to it
by Utah, and is binding upon the State
inst the snme.
Bat although the income tax amend
ment TO the Federal Constitution has
been ratified it doesn L follow that an
income tax shonld be Immediately lev

are not exercised. The levy of an in
come tax should be left for some nmer.
gency or crisis, such as the Civil War,
and ought not to be imposed merely to
allow Of the carrying out oil some par
tisan or political theory.
The humiliating attitude in which
the bosses OF the Republican party
have put their party in this State is
once more shown in black colors by
the refusal Of successive legislatures Of
Utah to keep plighted faith with the
people of this State. In fact, the peo-
pie of the whole country had a right
to count Utah as sure for the ratifi-
cation Of this amendment upon the
election OF the Republican Legislature
in 1910. pledged in the State platform
Of the party to ratify this amendment;
and yet the pledge did not hold, and
now it is too late to redeem the dis
honor which the Republican bosses
of this State have fixed upon the State
itself and particularly upon their
party; since delayed ratification now
is needless and vain.

also plausible one, for Mr.. Henry
has made n good deal of n reputation
for himself as a member Of Congress
and as Assistant Attorney General OF
Texas for two terms.
The likelihood of Obadiah Gardner
of Maine for Secretary of Agriculture
and ot William G.. McAdoo of New
York for Secretary OF the Navy arc
also quite i'll line.
Altogether, it would appear that
Mr.. Wilson so far from showing self
suflciency and reluctance to discuss his
Cabinet appointments, has, on the con-
trary. discussed them quite freely with
the party leaders whom he trusts, and
is likely to frame a Cabinet that will
emphatical]y commend itself TO the
country as we'll ns TO the Democratic
