UTAH POLITICS
The democratic party of Utah ha
decided to go out of business forfthe time
being. Most of its members will
become allied with the American or
Anti-Mormon party, and hereafter there
?U1 be but one'issue in Utah elections
?the Mormon church.
The Mormoos tome years ago inter
ed Into an alliance with the republican
national committee agreeing to jive
Utah'* vote to McKInley in return for
which the republicans bound them
*elves to protect Mormons from a repe
tition of suoh a disaster as overtook
Congresamen Brigham H. Roberts,
who waa expelled from the national
house on account of his polygamous
conduct and received not the support of
hit democratic colleagues. It is under
stood, be it said in justice to the late
Mr. Hanna, that the Mormons agreed
not to advance a Mormon a? a senator j
or as a representative in the house who ]
was actually practicing poly amy.
This alliance between the Mormons
and the republicans has continued 10 j
esist. It was renewed &y Mr. Cortel
you and it is proclaimed in I'tih that
it has the endorsement of Roosevelt. It
baa been sufficiently strong in the j
L'nited States senate to prevent a vote j
upon the right of Reed Smoot to a seat
in that body, though two-thirds j
of his six year*' term will hsve elapsed |
nest March.
This alliance did not oecome partic |
ularly obnoxious to the gentiles of I'tah j
at first. The Mormons pbyed the |
game too] smoothly for that. They I
elected a gentile to the senate after |
their first victory? Thomas Kearns, a |
millionaire mine owner and a Roman j
Catholio in religion. But. as soon as i
they had gained full control of the re
publican organizations of the state and |
?11 its counties and the fedeial patron
age- President Roosevelt continues to !
recognise the Mormon right to dictate
as to the state patronage-.-Senator |
Kearns and his friends were rooted out j
of the party. They organized the I
American party.
While a great many democrats joined j
the American party, the democratic i
party, as an organizavion, declared for ,
the abeo'.jte separation of church and j
?itate, but took a course less offensive to
Independent Mormons, as individuals, I
than the course pursued by Senator
Kearns and his following, though in
many instances there was fusion be- 1
tween the democrats and American^.
This middle course was becoming so
popular that it was alt-acting many!
young Mormons, who sought to avoid
the church issue for one reason or
another. and It bid fair to make the
democratic party dominant in state
affaire. In some of the town* and
counties the democratic position was
so satisfactory to the peoole that both
the other parties ac:epted its locsl
tickets and avoided the necessity of
political contests, But democratic
dream* were set at naught late last
September by the promulgation of the
Smith "commandment." which set 'he
state on fire. Joseph F. Smith, the
head of the church, "communed with
God" aadhad a -'revelation" which
commanded that every church
member should vote the republican
ticket henceforth. Of course Senator
Smoot, who has charge of the political
affairs of the Mormon church, inspired
the revelation. The result was the
triumph of the church ? the opposition
breaking almost even between the dem
ocrats and the Americans, .the demo
erata predominating very slightly. The
Smith "commandment'' aroused such a
storm of protest among the gentiles
that thousands who would have been
satisfied with the position of the dem
ocratic party refused to accept any
thing less radical than the most radical
and a revival in the American party
rotnlted.
This, in brief, is the situation which
haa Induced the democrats to determine
to nominate no ttcket In Utah until the
w?r between the Mormon church (or
republicans) and the Americans (or
anti-Mormons) shall have been fought
out. In the mean time the
democratic organization will be kept
up. The parly will hold conventions, |
adopting platforms declaring for the 1
seoaration of church and state, and
adjourn, leaving the party members to
vote as they will.
WORK FOR A CANADIAN FOLK
Evidently there is need that the
wave of reform that is playing a grim
sort of hide and seek up and down the
I'uited State* with grafter?, and special
privilege grabber> should spread across ,
the Canadian border. The Atlin Claim,
of recont date, says:
"The Toronto Mail and Empire is out
bot-foot after the liberal government at.
Ottawa for selling .'ISO, 000 acre- of land
in Southern Alberta to a land speculat
ing company for } 1 per acre The land
was to 'ie held for settler* This was
the announced poiic*} of the 1 heral
governmeir. Now the settlers have to
pay from f."> to -IJ ",0 p,>r acre. The
speculation ha-. so far, netted prolits to
the company of some ?">00,000,"
An effort is being made to bring out
a candidate against Speaker Cannon
or the leadership of th? 'tilth congress
which will convene a year frnm this
fall. Theodore K. I'.urton. of Cleve
land, Ohio, who is the leader of the
Roosevelt taction >n Ohio politics, is
proposed by the opponents of the stand
pat congressional ring for the next;
speaker. It is not believed that the
plan will result iu the dethronement of
Cannon, but it i< thought lie can be
compelled to release hi- grasp on some
of the autoctMiic power.- he assumes.
Mr. Button is a beiiever in reciprocity
and thinks it should bsgin with Canada.
All the-'uneaj pjpers are now iineJup
in favor of a "widd open" town. When
the"moral wave'Tirst started it- course
it wa- opposed by only one paper, the
j Dispatch. The others seemed to lean
heavy on the side of ".aw aud order."
