Gratis CRITICISM.

United States Senator William II.
King OF Utah, who Is recognized as u
statesman of great ability and one
democratic representative in Congress
from this part Of the country, Is quot
ed in the Salt Lake Tribune AS fol-
lows on present day political topics:
There must be large production
and more thrift. There cannot be in
vestments unless there are savings.
There must be coordination between
labor and capital. Both must apprec-
iate the new conditions produced by
the war, and concessions must be
made by both. The cruel and sense
less conflict of strikes and iockouts
must cease, II a sound return 10 pros
perity Is accomplished. There must
be greater economies in cities, coun-
ties, states and the nation. There
Is too much disposition To plunge mu-
inequalities and political subdivisions
as well as the nation, into debt, and
to borrow for public Improvements.
There should be no further issues of
bonds. The utmost economy should
be observed in all public matters. This
Is moi the time for partisanship. Dem
ocrats and Republicans alike should
unite To bring about stabilization and
prosperity. Every effort OF the adj
ministration for the interest Of pub
lie veal should be supported by every
Democrat"
Discussing the work of congress,
senator King said that the special
session was called for tn. purpose of
enacting tariff and revenue measures.
"The army and navy bill was passed,
carrying more than $500 900 900 per
year. he said. This Ii sum 80
stupendous ~ To shock the minds of
those who thing and who undertake
To apprase what the vast sum means.
Such a burden in peace time IL almost
intolerable. When Germany was max
ing preparations In subdue Europe,
It's appropriations never exceeded
500 1000. 900 for il army and navy IN
any given year.
