and supporters of Alexander. 1t has
always been supposed that the gov
ernor would endeavor to succeed
himself. 1t is probably true that
he will be a candidate, but there
is not the certainty about it that
was evident two or three months
ago. 1t is known, however, that next
week is to be a busy one with the
chief executive. He is to speak at
Burley, at Blackfoot and probably
at other places.
The governor since his induction
into Office the first of last year, has
been the busiest little campaigner
in the United States. There have
been no weeks, so far as can be
learned, during which he has not
driven nail or sawed a board for
his political fences. 1t is thought
that nearly everyone in the state
has had an opportunity to hear
him in speech or sermon at least
once. Latterly, however, the governor
has not been received with the same
glad acclaim which attended his Wis
itations throughout the state during
his first few appearances.
| Word comes to the city that of
late he has made number of appear
ances where the people have been
more noticeable by their absence and
inattention than anything else. He
has come to communities sometimes
on invitation, to be met by no one,
and to suffer from what seemed to
be studied neglect. 1t is said the
governor feels this very keenly, and
has been heard to quietly voice his
discomfort on one or more occa-
sions. 1t is hardly to be expected
that this will slow him up to any
appreciate extent He feels too
sure of himself, is too strongly
grounded in faith in his powers OF
persuasion to permit a little thing
like personal slight to deter him
from telling what a very excellent
governor the people have-to point
out the many good things he has
brought about, and the many very
bad ones that he claims to have
prevented.
Some New Candidates Announced.
The republicans during the pas
week have had the announcement
of two new candidates for state
officers. One of these, Hon. M. j
Sweeley of Twin Falls for attorney
general, has been several times {
member of the legislature, and hi.
name has become somewhat familiar
to the people of the state generally
= With Fred Fisk of Parama, whit
has announced his candidacy fol
state treasurer, conditions are some
what different. Fisk has been ac
tive politically throughout his resi-
= dence in the state but has neve
before been mentioned for state pc
sition. Both these gentlemen are as
) sured of opposition. For the attorne.
/, generalship, Mr.. Sunderlin of Burley
J is already in the race, while tn
e present state treasurer, John Eagle
{ son, is again an applicant for tn
E suffrages of the people.

MAKING ONES WAY IN LIFE
Every Man 10 the Architect Of HIs Own
Success, However rio May Be
Assisted.

J How many Of us pass our time In
waiting for life to give us something
Instead Of trying to flnd II for our
@olyeai We even 60 so far as to think
that life owes US always more than we
receive. that we fulnll our mission on
earth by simply living q harmless ex-
tstence and that fame and fortune
should be ours by right. 1t Is for this
latter reason that we SO often resent
the good fortune Of others and allow
ourselves to believe that we have been
0tacrtminated against By Providence.
We do not seem to realize that 1t 10
well worth our while TO do something
tnore than walt for what may or may
mot come 70 pass. that we are the
architects In large measure Of our
own success and that we must make
fhe best Of what IL before US In order
20 learn the rights to fulflll the desires
of our hearts. II we make but little
Roadway we are quick with our ex-
EuseH and are always ready to place
the blame upon others who can in nd
way be held responsible. II, ON the
other hand, we do succeed, II seems
quite natural to take the credit our
selves whether we deserve It or not.
The chances are, however, that II we
amount to very much In this world the
credit belongs to US more than to any
one else, even though we do receive as
distance at times from those who take

matter ls that we must fOrtlfy our
selves to meet conditions as they come
and to do our best to shape them into

new PRESIDENT ASSUMES
FULL CHARGE AT U. or U.
Authorities Plan to Turn Out Students
o. High Character, Equipped for
Lies Battle.

DIR. John A. Widtsoe, successor to
President j. T. Kingsbury, has now
assumed full charge OF things at the
University Of Utah. DR.. Widtsoe says
that he finds everything in very good
shape and that the prospects for a
successful school year are excellent.
He looks for a large and representa-
tive student body. Judging from what
he has heard in travelling about the
state, he BELIEVES that the registra-
ton Of students from outside the city
viii be exceptionally large.
DR.. Widtsoe believes that there is
NO question whatever about the sue
cessful future of the university. The
faculty and regents, he says, are
working unitedly for the interests Of
the institution. and with its location
in new, rapidly growing section in
community which Is education low
ing, there is tremendous opportu-
nifty for the ''U" to grow in service
TO the state.
DIR. Widtsoe says that his policy
will be to open the book OF knowledge
as widely as possible, to be unafraid
OF truth in any field, and to apply
whatever is gained to the actual
needs OF the community. The ideal
will be to turn out students who are
not only of high character, but are
also serviceable, efficient men. With
regard to the years plans DR.. Widtsoe
says that there will be a large de-

New York.-Failure of negotiations
being conducted by Mayor Mitchell ia
provide a basis of settlement OF the
traction strike in this city win result
IN call for q sympathetic strike OF
approximately 100000 workers, union
leaders declared after a conference
Monday between representatives OF
several crafts.
The call will be issued, it was stat.
ed. TO all unions affiliated with the
Central Federated Union Of New York
the Central Labor Union OF Brooklyn
and the Federated Union Of the Bronx
Westchester and Yonkers. Some OF
the unions already have authorized a
strike. union leaders said, and refer.
endums are in progress in others.
Theodore p. Shonts, president OF

pany, has issued statement In which

ton with the United States Bureau of
Mines,
DIR. Widtsoe believes that the school
pf medicine, which has been retained
IN class A. should and will undertake,
not mercy the professional training
Of doctors, but the larger problems OF
public health and sanitation. He
thinks that the scope OF the univer-
sity's department OF medicine should
be very much broadened in order to
serve the state practically and widely.
The law school. under the leader
ship of Dean Leary, will not only
train lawyers. but will CO operate
with other departments in order to
improve general citizenship. Special
efforts will be made to prepare men
for public service, by giving courses
In other subjects besides technical
law.
The school Of education Is planning
to increase its experimental work in
the training school with the idea of
improving the school system OF the
state. Dean Bennion even pans to
cooperate with other departments in
the university in the direction of
studying problems of school ventila-
ton and kindred matters.
The school OF arts and sciences,
which includes the work in com
merce and finance, and which really
has the widest field of all, will con-
tinue its development under the lead
ership of Dean J. l.. Gibson.
DR.. Widtsoe says that each member
Of the faculty has plans for his work
which will take some time to carry
out, but that the idea Of all is greater
service to the state. The question,
how can this school with It's fine
equipment, its large faculty and stu
dent body, and its splendid location,
enter more strongly into the spirit
and life OF the people is the one
which the faculty Is attempting to
answer. DIR. Widtsoe declares that he
hopes that within short time import.
ant additions can be made to the
great university work which has been
thoroughly and solidIy commenced by
his predecessors. He also states
that he win support all the organixa-
tons and activities OF the student
body and hopes that he. together with
the faculty and regents, can cooper
ste with the students In working sor 4
