Hats off to tho fellow, whoever ho wus, who said tho peoplo of his ward ought to be wise be- couso that overy tlmo they went into the meeting house they were still breathing tbo breath of Aria- Now Aristotle, according to the fly paper, lived BJH some sovoral days ago, ns men count events of niundnno history, which is neither hero nor there, tho legerdemain artist assures hU mystlflcd aula dlcnco ob ho graciously proceeds to dispose of scv-H cral hundred yards of colored paper, by deftly shooting tho samo Into a $3 chapoau which is found to bo as empty afterwards ns before tho process was begun.

All of which leads back to the query with which wo begun this dlsBortatlon why Is a chick-H en? Why! Who was It Invented, discovered, or first cave that vexed and vexing word to tho human family? Why! without doubt the most pcrploxlng little combination of thrco letters to bo found any-H whero In tho English language. Why was it utll-H ircd at nil? And why do wo of this present en-H lightened dispensation still continue to disturb our of mind by fussing with It? Why, why, and echo answers again why? For Instance, now If you were to bo asked strictly in contldenco, of course Just why It was I that tho good ladles of Logan somo tlmo ago made moBt commendable effort to clean up this town, and ns result of their endeavors finally succeed-H cd In having a number of garbage cans stationed nt divers and sundry places along ttho principal streets In tho coHfhiercial part of tho city for the ostensible purposo of being mado receptacles for waste paper and other trash which USED TO LIT- TEH THE STREETS; and nftcr tho ladles had mado such Bpleudld effort to clean up tho streets Hi Why Why, nrc not the receptacles used for that purpose at present? Why Is It that tho one over on Flrat North, Ju8t off Main street, Instead of occu- pylng a pcrmnncnt, fixed place, on tho edge of tho sidewalk, whor0 It might posalbly bo nvallablo for Borvice, should for tho last month or more have stretched Its sheet Iron length squarely across tho walk, savo ns boiiio enterprising citizen thoughtful- H' ly kicked It out of the wny to permit others to H. utlltzo tho tldcwalk? Why again and a few more whys should the Hi principal streets of this town bu littered over with paper, empty packages, old rubbers, and nil other Ht kinds of refuse, until It makes fellow feel llko H. ho Is walking over tho space recently vacated by H' circus, ns hu walks down tho Main streot of the H't, vlllugo? Why, 0, why Is tho part of a treo blown By down by tho wind somo thrco weeks ago, on tho He south sldo of th0 tnbernaclo square, nnd which has luln over slnco with Its brnnches obstructing part Hp of. tho sldownlk and threatening tho eyes of every Hil belated pedestrian, allowed to remain thoro In all Hi! Us prlstlno grnndcur whatever thnt means when HI just a tiny, little, weeny bit of an effort would make tho walk passablo and Infinitely Improve tho general aspect of things.

Say, what Is tho matter with this town, any- ll0W why the well why In tho world Is the li three cornered, slib ticrciKtfd looking thins which pushes its tattered iiobo out over tho sidewalk on tbo south sldo of Center Htroet JiiBt H' opposite the Lyric theater, and which clamorously nnuounces tho advent of i great poultry show to bo held from tho 1 3th to tho 1Mb of January, Btlll permitted to remain there? WnBii't that event pulled off soma tlmo lust month? Tako a Btroll through tbo business part of tho town some day mill notion few of tho things which make tho visitor Binllo when ho hits this burg, and then well then, everybody wuko up!

totlo is now deud; tlio Ualkan states havo declared war on Turkey; Napoleon Uonaparto has up and HjL aied; tho Democrats hovo captured congress, nnd HJt tho whole mass of ovldenco herewith proBouted H. jwids us back with unerring precision to tbo query B' first enunciated Why Is a DR. WILSON AS A BOSS Tho President-elect is so constantly displaying now traits and now sides to IiIb character that wo uro beginning to feel qulto acquainted with him. Many of these characteristics wo never would huto siiBpected nor did, wo fancy, thoso who led hlB victorious legions in tho Ualtlmoro convention. None- would havo predicted from his speeches, or from his voluminous writings before tho ollico seeking term began to tantalize him, that ho would over develop Into boss.

Wo discerned In his per- sonnllty, his environment nnd his previous modo of living many obstacles to his being a successful Hj President but novor Imagined that ns an executive be would nttempt to cocrco and control the legls- BJf lntlvo department as ho 1b now endeavoring to do, HHn irti 1HBB Br(j( i -HBBBBBBBBbP 1 nnd not without somo success, In New Jcrsoy. At tho Instance of Dr. Wilson, Beven anti-trust which ho was tho author, were Introduced soveral weeks ago in tho legislature of New Jersey; they were Instantly hailed, ns Indicating the trust policy ho would pursue upon entering tho larger field of national affairs. Theso measures would rid New Jersey of tho dlsgraco of being the happy bunting ground of tho predatory trusts, tho state of refuge to which they could fly when hard, pressed elsewhere Combinations of capital that had no other. Ject and Intent than the elimination of competition nnd tho restraint of trndo were always able to get a charter under tho liberal laws of Jersey; If Salt Lake, for Instance, licensed thlovcs to prey upon Its own citizens and thoso of surrounding communities, gave them Iceal atandlng and protectionthc situation would be Identically similar to that which has prevailed In New Jcrsoy as regards tho trusts Dr.

Wilson's proposed laws would correct thlg condition. Although ho deserves credit for his attitude, It must bo remembered that tho President-elect Is the executive not tho legislature of Now Jersey, nnd that the samo conditions that ho now seeks to correct havo cxUtcd over since he became Governor without any prior etTort on his part to re-mo vo them. Thoro seems to bo no organized opposition to tho suggested statutes but Dr. Wilson Insists thnt lie hnvo tho honor of approving them ai: governor beforo ho resigns to go to Washington. Consequently, when tho House nnd Sennto adopted a point resolution to adjourn over Lincoln's birthday, ho sent them word through his secretary that thoy should remain In session nnd they obediently did so.

As a boss. Dr, Wilson Is not without his good points. Discovery of this new sldo to tho Presidentelect's character renders assurance doubly sure that Washington will be a most entertaining place during tho earlier months of his term. The greed for office displayed by his party, the ruthless way in which It Is seeking to tramp Its platform pledges Into the dust, tho thorough and wholesale manner In which it Is proving Its opinions on most subjects to be remarkably diverse from those Dr. Wilson is supposed to hold, Indicate that the big stick will once more be a popular weapon at the White House.

It Is almost worth while to have a Democratic President in Washington to observe the enthusiasm with which he and his party will proceed to remove any chances of success they might havo had In the future. THEY HAD BETTER GET BACK The farmers In this country who havo gone Into tho habit of growing sugar beets are facing a menace at the moment that threatens their industry, nnd also competition of all farm products with fojelgn freo trade. Those who at tho last election voted for a freo trade tariff havo something now to think of. Michigan farmors as well as thoso In all tho border states opposed Toft becaueo ho favored reciprocity with Canada. Well, Woodrow Wilson, incoming President, has declared for absolute free trado In all farm products "necesBarles of llfe.V ho calls them.

Consider the free entry of all farm-products grown In Canada into tho United States, and Canndn, in turn, which has rejected rcciproct Ity, Imposing a tariff ou nearly nil American pro ducts. Fino prospect, isn't it? This Is the program now being mapped out by tlio peoplo who will control CongrcsB nnd tho administration nfter March 4, noxt. If American farmers want to save themselves they had better get back and enst their votes for the party that Is for protection. Do hey want a repetition of the years from 1893 to Thoso were tariff for revenue only years, tbo Identical policy that tho Ualtlmoro platform declares for. And President-elect Wilson has hurried to gtvo It out ho will call nn oxtra session early In the spring to rcvlso tho tariff downward to a bnals of lS93-'97.

If the Bamo policies work out under tho new administration as thoy did In 1893 '97 tho snmo results will Inovltnbly follow. Hut, owing to an unfortunato and foolish split In tho ranks of thoso who bcllovo In protection, and who polled more than a million more votes thnn tho freo traders, tho latter will havo control of and dictate tho policies of tho government and Its biiBl-neBB tho ensuing four years. liny City Natlonni Fnrmer. 4 AN ECONOMIC" ANOMALY It Is llko eating your enko and still having iiur enke, to advocato a tariff reduced for tho purposo of Increasing tho revenue, nnd at tho samo tlmo a tariff that shall not operato to diminish American labor nnd production. Yet this Is practically tho attitude of tho party that Is Boon to control tho national government.

A witness giving testimony last week In favor of tho present pro-tectlvo duties on Imports competing with lino of manufactures In which ho wns Interested stuted that ho had always voted tho Democratic tlckot and that ho Indorsed tbo Democratic plan of so loworlng tho tariff as to glvo greater revenue without Injuring our own manufacturers and wngo cum-ors. Of courso UiIb witness did not say how this economic anomaly could bo brought about. Of courso ho did not know. Neither do Mr. Underwood nor any of his "rovonuo only" associates know how they nro going to reduce tho tariff duties, incrcaso the rovonuo by Inviting moro Importation at tho lower rates, and, nt tho samo tlmo, mnlntnln tho present volumo of American production.

Nono of theso "scientific" tariff makers havo yet explained how this can bo dono. Wo somotlmes wonder whether nny ono of thorn comprehends that phaso of tho "revenue only" Bchomo. If not, thoy nro culpably Ignorant. If thoy do comprehend It, thoy nro guilty of deliberately plotting to destroy American prosperity. American Economist Tho Democratic platform declares tbo policy of protection unconstitutional.

To bo consistent nnd slncoro with (ho people, the Democrats must put Into operation their policy trmlo. Hnon vlllo (Mo.) Republican. .1.

Robert Mc-Kuno and L. N. Harmon were appointed last night by tho local organization of tho Midland Trail to go to Salt Lake in the Interests of tho bill passed by the senate carrying an appropriation of $35,000 for the section of road from Colton to the Colorado lino through Prlco river canyon, Price Wellington, Woodslde and Green river. Interests are working to amend the bill when It comes before the bouso to divert the route through Castle Dale and tho Salina canyon, a routo which would mako the trnll 75 miles longer and not bo in accordance with tho route designated by Pathfinder Wcstgnrd last November. He favored the Price river canyon and said that It was feasible.

An amendment to the bill will make It Inoperative and lose tho appropriation. Eventually when state roads are built In various partB of tho country, travelers may desire to tako different routes to suit their fancy but the present routo is tho shortest and most feasible. Mr. West card has signified his desire for the Price river route und any change, It Is snld will causo dissatisfaction. The party of f0 autoists which leave Indianapolis, July 8, for the Pacific coast will make the pioneer selection of routes which will be followed by thousands on their way to tbo exposition In San Francisco In 1915, and It Is up to tho state of Utah to show them and show quick-' ly that wo 'mean business and will place a road through the state that will compare with other western states.

Colorado Is the keystone of tho situation nnd the success of Utah In making a good outlet after tourists arrival In tho state will determine whether tho routo goes towards Arizona or to Nevada from Utah. Hence tho route should be tho shortest from Grand Junction to Salt Lake. South Sea Islanders All Elders and Saints from the South Sea Islands will meet at 7:30 p. m. In the Fourth ward meeting houso Saturday evening, for the purposo of forming a South Sen Island organization.

Elder Taylor Nelson of the Oneida stako presidency said he knew the deceased to be a most worthy man, devoted to the causo of truth.

While hundreds rejoice over his work here; thousands would rejoice in the next world because of IiIb labors for them. We aro very near eternity, und our friends gone before are also very near us. Tho resurrection Is a reality and all men will como forth to receive their reward. President Joseph Qulnncy spoke of the great work Elder Lamb had done in the Masters cause. The gospel Is for all time and eternity nnd our service Bhoma ever be the best we can give.
