AMERICAN BENEFIOENCES.

In the Philippines, as Dean Worcester
reports. the yearly dcath-roll from
smallpox before the American oc-
cupation, was more than 10000, which
has now been reduced to few hun
dred. Asiatic cholera, which formerly
claimed tens Of thousands OF victims
yearly, has now been entirely climin-
atad. There were IN the islands 10000
lepers, treated worse than wild beasts,
whereas there arc now only 1000, and
these are cared for and their number
decreasing Bubonic plague has been
stamped out, amoebic dysentery, beri-
hori and malarial fevers have been re.

MIR. DERN IN FAVOR.

The Tribune wishes very sincerely
and cordially to convey its congratula-
tions to Mr.. John Dern upon the favor
which he has attracted from tho pres.
cnt administration. That administra-
ton, it appears, views him with admir-
alton and trust, so much so that it has
set apart a good diplomatic position in
the European service for him The ex-
act position is not disclosed, but Prcsi-
dent Wilson, in spite Of Mr.. Dern's dis
claimer of being a candidate for any
such position, has determined to confer
a diplomatic position in Europe of some
Importance. upon Mr.. Dern.
The neighbors of Mr.. Dern, Of whom
The Tribune is glad to be one, hold him
In the highest possible respect and es-
TEEN, and will congratulate HIM joy
fully upon the distinction which he has
so worthily attained. he is a man who
would adorn a diplomatic position, and
in whom the interest of his country
would be entirely safe. Not only so,
but he would be an aggressive force in
pushing the interests Of tho United
States and the advantage Of its com
merce and prestige in every possible
way. Mr. Dern is a man of practical
affairs, he knows what counts in busi-
ness, and what is good and right to do
in the advancement of good feeling and
commercial interests. He knows that
good feeling is n very large factor in
modern business, and he is .emIncntly
suited by disposition and character to
carry good feeling into his official rela-
tions in such q way as to ensure the
best possible results.
Mr.. Dern has long been one Of the
eminent citizens Of Utah; he is now a
member of the State Capitol Commits
sion, and is doing excellent work in
that capacity. We trust that nothing
will interfere with his work on the Cap
itol Commission until the construction
is fully assured in the best possible
manner, and that the most useful and
attractive effects are established be-
yond recall. His recent visit to Europe
gave him much light, through observa

MORAL FORCE, NOT LEGISLATION.

The session Of the W. G. T q. con.
vention in this city was full of zeal
aud radicalism on temperance and other
questions The feeling of that conven-
tiou on questions taken up is good
deal the same as that of the suffra-
gette speaker in Chicago, whose doclar-
alton is thus referred to editorially by
the St Louis Globe Democrat:
pulpit. said that giving the ballot to
women would put an end 10 the double
standard of morality. That is not a
question OF politics or government, but
purely q state Of society. which the
women could have remedied long ago
without the ballot Whenever women
apply to men the same standard they ap-
ply TO women, and mete out TO men the
same Judgment. the reform will come.
IL is entirely UP to the women themselves
and has been so for a long time.
There is no question but that the mat
ter referred to Is social and not politi-
cal The same is true Of good many
of the propositions set forth by the w.
c, r. u. convention in this city. There
is no question but that a number Of
the aims declared for by the W. O. T.
U. are desirable in themselves, and
would be beneficial TO the community.
AS to others, there is great room for
difference of opinion. But it seems to
us, that so far as one phase OF the mat
ter rs concerned, there is little room
for any difference Of opinion among
The Salt Lake tribune. [volume] (Salt Lake City, Utah) 1890-current, 1913-09-06

people who have had experience and
who have devoted thought to the gucs-
ton, and that is precisely as Indicated
in the editorial from the st. Louis
Globe Democrat which we quote above
The field is one which should be occu-
pied and wrought in socially and by
personal moral effort, rather than
through political means. For, as to n
good many Of the matters indicated,
politics would degrade the whole mat
ter and would in the end be ineffective;
while as to others, any possible bene,
fit to be temporarily attained would he
sure to be at the expense of sincerity,
honesty, and candor OF mind and char
aeter. IT is far easier to degrade So
cial and moral questions by introduc-
ing thom into politics, than it is to
elevate politics by obtrudng such ques-
tions therein. And so while every eff
fort toward uplift and purity must be
commended and supported, the means
of extending this uplift and purity arc
open to choice; with the choice OF po
litical methods often tried already, and
always a failure.

BALKAN INQUIRY FAILS.

No sooner had the world settled down
going to find out all about the ont
RACES committed in the Balkan wars,
than that hope Is absolutely scorched
by the refusal of the Balkan states
either to cooperate in, or, in fact. to
permit that inquiry.
The commissioners appointed twhoso
names we have given heretofore) as
sembled speedily and proceeded at once
to the nearest point of contact with the
Balkan states; that is, they went to
Belgrade, expecting servian co-opera-
tion in their efforts. Here, instantly,
they were snubbed by Premier Pasitch,
much to their surprise, and they had to
withdraw from Servia crestfallen and
discouraged Premier Pasitch would
grant no audience to the commission,
nor would the government recognize it
in any way, unless the Servians were
allowed to eliminate two Of the mem.

this rebuff for the Carnegie commission

out that the rebuffs which the com

afford complete proof OF the Bulgarian
