THERE is little question but that
the concensus of opinion in this coun-
try is that there should be no nego-
tiated peace with the Teutonic powers;
that the terms of settlement should
be dictated by the entente allies, and
not threshed out around peace table,
but we cannot help feeling that there
is an element of inconsistency in the
Entrances of President Wilson as the
spokesman of our nation in the state
ment of war aims and terms of peace.
After these terms had been laid down
by our president and then are accept
ed without qualification by the Ger
man government, it looks little like
hedging to virtually say we are not
prepared to stand on our own bid. We
believe that inasmuch as our nation is
only one of number associated in
the war against German Imperialism
and further in the light of the fact
that our participation in the struggle
is yet small in comparison with that
Of some of our allies, it would be more
consistent to let council Of the ma
tons concerned make statement of
our demands, rather than to have too
much eminate from this country, be-
fore we know whether or not same
will be coneurred in by the other ma

WHY THE PUBLIC MUST DO IT'S
SHARE.

IF the "home papers" are to be sent
to all our soldiers and sailors and
others, men and women, engaged in
war work abroad, this must be done
by the public generally or by interest
ed parties in each community.
The ruling of the War Industries
Board in reference to country week
lies, published August 90, provides:
"No publisher may give free
copies of his paper except for
actual service rendered and eX-
cept to camp libraries and hos
pitfalls or canteens of organiza-
tons recognized by the Govern
ment, etc.
"No publisher shall send his
publication to any one below the
public subscription price"
1t will thus be seen that all news
papers which have heretofore been
sending free copies to the soldiers
abroad and all newspapers that have
been contributing a portion of their
subscription price in order that the
publis might be encouraged to send
the newspaper to soldiers, will have tC
discontinue those practices.
In other words, if the soldiers are
to have their "home paper" of which
they stand so much in need and which
give them so much delight and com
fort, the people will have to supply
the money for the full paid subscri
tions.
The newspaper has no option in thu
matter, in view of the very business
like ruling of the War Industrie:
Board, which is seeking to proven
any consumption of print paper with
out an adequate return therefor.
II the public will respond will
prompt donations for sending the pa
pers, every boy from Iron County will
in time receive his "home paper"

POLITICS are beginning to 81

POLITICS are beginning to sim
mer now, and while the war is too
all-absorbing to permit of great
deal of attention being devoted to the
political questions, but the near APP
proach of the election will necessarily
attract some interest to the various
candidates for office. The Democrats
of this county held their convention
last Saturday and nominated a coun-
ty ticket, and the Republicans hold
their convention tomorrow at Paro-
wan. The state tickets, which consist
Of three judges Of the supreme bench
and the congressman, have been NOM
mated by both parties. The candi-
dates Of both parties for district judge
of this the Fifth district, have also
been named. ID. II. Morris, the pres
ent incumbent, is again put forward
by the Democrats, while the Republi-
cans have nominated Miner, son of
ex-Justice Miner of the supreme court
whose residence is i'm Juab county
Judge Morris has given excellent sat
isfaction on the bench and will GER
tainly run strong, particularly in the
southern part of the district. Mr.
Miner is said to be a very bright at
torney and stands well with the lega,
profession.

ATTY. JOHN FOSTER HAS
FAVORITE CANDIDATES.
Endorses Alfred FrOyd for Sheriff
and Mr.. Bowen for Position on
the Supreme Bench.

Editor Record.-There are two can
didates up for election at this time
whom | should like TO direct the peo-
pies especial attention 10. These are
Sheriff Froyd who is out for re-elec-
ton and Mr.. Bowen, who is candi-
date for the eight year term in the
Supreme Court.
Sheriff Froyd knows more about the
office of sheriff than any other man in
the county; he is man who uses good
judgment as an official and makes an
excellent witness. / believe that the
people will make a regretable mistake
if they fail to elect him.
The other candidate, Mr.. Bowen, is
a man whom | have known since 1910
At that time he was a student in the
Law school of the University of Chi
cago. considered him one of the best
students in the law department and
every student there was a post-grad-
uate. He graduated with high honors
and doubt If there Is a man in Utah
with d better legal mind. He is IA
tive son of this state, having beer
born in the northern part of Utah
Before attending the University OF
Chicago, he was an instructor in the
B. Y. College Mt Logan, and since re-
turning he has engaged in very sue
cessful law practice at that city.
AS to his integrity, there is no ques'
ton.
While the office of member of the
Supreme Court is still subjected "a

We want the best men We can get foi

You know the other candidates as

INFLUENZA is SERIOUS

ERELY because many OF the
NJ cases of influenza are mild, we
we should not underestimate
the seriousness of the disease. anc
those afflicted with it should be very
careful not to expose others any more
than they have to. Already the cpl
demic has caused the death Of two
Iron county people, which is as many
as have thus far met death at the
front, and il is stimated that the cpl
demic will claim about 100000 vic
tins in the United States.
You can never tell who is going to
develop the disease in its dangerous
form, and one would certainly feel
very badly if he thought he had UNI
willingly, perhaps carelessly, caused
the death of some person.
The disease has secured a very
wide distribution throughout the coun'
try, and also in the state. 1t will be
only by the cooperation of all the
people that the epidemic can be con
trolled.
There are about fourteen or fifteer
homes in Cedar City affected with thu
disease, and Health Officer, DIR. Mac
farlane states that the epidemic II
now pretty well in hand with but few
new cases developing and with posi-
bly, one exception, no cases at present
that appear serious.
Now, if everyone will heed the in
structions issued by the State Boar'
of Health, as published elsewhere il
this issue, we feel sure that the dis
ease can soon be stamped out here.

S. l.. CITY is CENsURABLE

THERE is feeling here that Salt
- Lake City health officials were
either extremely lax and careless or
guilty of culpability in connection
with the epidemic of influenza which
was rampant there at the time the
state fair and conference were in ses-
sion there. Several of the hotels were
veritable pest-holes of the disease
and it is hardly reasonable to assume
that the officers were totally ignorant
of the situation, which was permitted
to remain undisturbed until after the
fair and conference were over, when
great hue and cry was raised by
the health boards and the newspapers
and everything was closed down tight;
but not until the germs of the disease
had been dispatched into almost every
quarter of the state.
On it's face the matter looks bad, as
it appears that the presence of the
disease must have been known, but
the facts were kept under cover in
order that the success of the fair and
conference might not be interfered
with.
OF the twenty-five or more guests
at the metropolis from this place full
ly one-half returned with influenza
We hope that the suspicion prevailing
here is groundless, but it has a bad
appearance.
