AND NOW THE BLIND CAN SEE

Ever since the President went to
France, and until he broke the silence
himself and disillusioned his blind follow
ers, there has been perpetual chorus OF
how the President was the whole show,
how he had bossed the job, how all the
powers of the earth had bowed to his die
tation, and how he had finally succeeded
in writing constitution for league OF
nations that would prevent war forever
after. But what a change has come over
the face of the earth. While the Presi-
dent was "over there" with the wires and
the wireless at his command, and under
his control, nothing leaked out that would
indicate that Lloyd George, Clemenceau,
or any Of the others were doing anything.
But when the President returned and
told the cold facts the country is INFORM
ed that it was not his draft, not the
French draft not the Italian draft, but
the English draft that the President
brought over, and the Presidents draft
was rejected altogether. And 10, the blind
are beginning to see that the President is
just a man after all, and since the Presi-
dent opened his mouth and confessed 1t
is not nearly as hideOus a crime to ques-
ton the constitution for the proposed
league Of nations as it was when the
blind were laboring under the impression
that Woodrow Wilson wrote it. In fact
great many Democrats, since the scales
have fallen from their eyes and their
light has been restored ARE now saying
that the constitution Tor the league OF ma
tions is too much John Bull, and they
don't know whether they want it or not.
If the President would only take Con-
gress and the American people in
to his confidence, it is hard to
tell Just what would happen, now that
the blind are beginning to see.

INSURANCE MONOPOLY UNDESIR-
ARI,E
ABLE

There has been general crusade by
socialistic doctinairies to change optional
casualty insurance to state monopoly.
In most states there is permitted cas-
ualty. insurance carried by the employer
at his own risk, or by taking out insur-
ance. q
The Western states have allowed en-
plOyers to carry this insurance on their
payolls with the state or with competing
insurance companies.
y State monopoly of casualty insurance
means that all competition shall be elm
mated and all risks for compensation of
workers is by state.
In some states employers have sought
to do better by their employees than pri-
vate insurance companies or even the
state would do for them.
Competition between the state, the in
surance companies and the employer is
probably best for the worker and gets
him the quickest results. For instance, in
states where large employers carry their
own risks they try to surpass in giving
first aid to the injured all other Plans
They make an immediate payment to the
injured mans family and in case of death
provide an immediate relief and funeral
fund.
There is no waiting for investigation
by the state or accident insurance COM
pany and casualty companies also try to
beat the state.
To give the state monopoly and elm
mate all forms of competition destroys
all incentive to education and accident
prevention. Free competition draws out
the best service and prevents oppression
by the state, by any insurance company
or by the employer.
For the state to take over monopoly
of anything is not in accordance with
free institutions and sound Americanism
1t is paternalism.-Th Provo Post. =

A REPUBLICAN, COUNTRY

The Republican plurality in the congress
sional elections of 1918 was ], 347 500. The
Democrats cast 5,275, 165 votes, the Re-
publicans 6,622, 734. If there were full
and fair vote in all parts of the country
the Republican vote would reach 10000
600, while the Democratic vote would not
increase at all, since there is no part of
the country in which the right Of DEM
ocart to cast a legal vote is denied.
Frank Walsh, who recently demanded
that the federal troops be Sent to Califor-
MIA to overturn the decisions of the courts
and carry Tom Mooney out of their juris-
diction now wants an international police
force to control world affairs, and pre-
sumably following his suggestion in the
Mooney case, to overthrow our legislative
and judicial bodies, whenever they do not
perform to suit the internationalists.
With three billion dollars worth of COM
modities of foreign production entering
our markets yearly under the operations
of tariff law devised to foster alien as
opposed to home industry, the Democra-
tic politicians pretend to be surprised be-
cause our failure to make this stuff at
home is liable to retsore the conditions of
unemployment which prevailed in this
country under the existing tariff law be-
fore the war begun.

WILL LOOK INTO REASONS AFTER
WARDS
WARDS

The Utah Legislature evidently believes
in voting and looking for reasons after
wards. On Saturday an attempt was
made to railroad joint resolution in
dorsing the league of nations and the acts
of the President in what he had done to
wards peace The Senate passed it UNI
animously, and when the house members
objected to railroading and said they
would like to at least have acopy of the
resolution on their desks to read, the in
s0lent ID. d. Mckay moved that the min
ority be excused from voting. Had Nc
Kay had his way the house would have
done as the senate did-pass the resolu-
ton and inquire into the reasons after
wards-but Mckay ct al, were sat down
upon and the resolution was allowed to
lay over at lestslOng enough for the ink
to dry.

perhaps the amount is about right.
N N "a
Every Democrat in the senate except
Senator Reed, voted against placing the
picture of former President Roosevelt on
the Victory Loan bonds. Evidently the
war is still in politics.
n n
In discussing the league of nations con-
stitution Senator Hardwick said: | am
sorry that we cannot have statesmen like
Senator Knox instead of untried states
men like Colonel House" Senator Hard
wick is not alone in thinking that the
league of nations should not be political.
N N
Senator Hardwick in discussin the
league of nations said: 'The administra-
ton conducted the war to a successful
and glorious conclusion, and at the mo-
ment of victory the administration was
repudiated at the polls" Alas, It's true.

And now that George w. Skidmore has
landed Chairman Vernon is reported to
be the next to cast anchor Mr.'Vernon is
said will be appointed to the land board
in place of Senator Richard Davis of Box
elder who it is reported is in disfavor with
the little governor.
p N N
Would it not be well for somebody to
recommend to the legislature that bill
be passed making it mandatory on the
part of County Commissioners to appoint
assessors who are at least legal voters, or
at least eligible to vote in the state, before
they appoint them to pass Judgment on
the property of the people? This way of
appointing "transoms" to tell us what
our property is worth is pretty raw.

LONGS TO GET BACK TO WRITING

President Wilson will not be candi-

back to writing. Here's hoping that when
he gets back to writing he has better luck

CLEMENCEAU

Clemenceau is said to have been the on
ly high authority in administrative gov
eminent in the nations at war who ever
went into the actual danger zones. He
went to the firing line as premier of
France Some of the soldiers knew that
he did this thought that he wanted to
be killed in battle. We doubt this, be-
cause, although it may have been his per-
sonal desire, he probably wanted more to
serve France than to have the heroic ex-
tinguishment. that sturdy old French
realist might want.
Clemenceau is old, sturdy, realistic and
patriotic. Constance Drexel, in the same
issue of The Tribune which told how
Clemenceau was shot, told how he receiv-
ed the women who came to enlist him for
the cause of women.
They were pleased because he was so
honest. He told them that he feared the
emotional traits of women in politics, par
ticularly if these emotional traits had re-
Igious excitement, but that he could go
part of the distance. The women liked
him and accepted his statements because

REGULATING YOUR MEDICINE

Another bill, designed to regulate what
kinds of medicines shall be used by
the people of Utah, has been introduced
in the legislature. The measure is Offer
ed "by request" so that no particular
blame. cam he attached-to --sths legislator
who introduced it. 1t is an adopted child
and has no real father.
The bill would bar the sale of all patent
medicines, containing more than ~ per
cent alcohol, unless such medicines were
sold on doctors prescription. 1t would
be fine legislation for doctor. Every
time you wanted something for cold, or
indigestion, or any slight ailment there'd
be the necessity of hunting up physi-
clan and paying him So or more for per-
NIT to buy the medicine you know you
want.
If the "by request" measure is designed
to dictate what kind of medicine we shall
take for stomachache, backache, head
ache or toothache, it is ridiculous legisla-
ton If it is designed to whack at our old
enemy alcohol it is useless legislation.
Soon someone will be suggesting that we
cease the selling of liquid nitroglycerin or
shellac because they have alcohol in them.
They will fear we will try to drink the
nasty stuff. Salt Lake Telegram.

Weekly Health Talks
q WORD ABOUT the KIDNEYS

People are easily frightened when
they think something is the matter with
their lungs or heart, and we'll they
may be; but few people understand
the dangers Of diseased kidneys. These
organs have duty Of vital Importance
20 perform, and il they are diseased,
there is no telling how or where the
symptoms may appear. The kidneys
are filters, and when they are healthy
they remove tho poisons from the blood
and purify IT, When the kidneys are
diseased, the poisons are spread every
where, and one OF these poisons is uric
acid. The uric acid IL carried all
through the system and deposited in
various places, in the form Of urate
salts in the feet, ankles, wrists and
back - often forming bags under the
eyes. Sometimes the resulting trouble
is called rheumatism, lumbago, sciatica
and backache. Finally, come stone
in the bladder, diabetes and Bright's
disease.
DR.. Pierce, of Buffalo, N. Y, in recent
years, discovered that n certain COM
bination Of remedies would dissolve uric
acid (urate salts in the system. He
found this combination to be harmless,
SO that he made it up in tablets,
of double strength, and called them
Anuric Tablets. They dissolve uric
acid in the human system as hot coffee
dissolves sugar. II you have uric acid
troubles, don't delay in taking Anuric
Tablets, which can be secured in the
drug stores. You can write DR.. Pierce,
too, and he will tell you what TO eat
and how 10 live SO that more uric acid
will not form in your system. DR.. Pierce
will not charge for this advice.
