v " ¦ VENICE, •. Sept. - 9.— An . enthusiastic
gathering of ; natives <tf Utah listened to
-' a . highly , ; entertaining .' address by . Gov.
: John C. : Cutler, [ who was the guest of
: honor^atithe Utah reunion and celebra
tion exercises today at the Auditor
ium. .' On ' the ; rostrum with ¦ the . state's
' chief executive were A. P. Kesler, colonel
. on his official staff, Judge H. A. Pierce of
• Los Angeles and Commodore H.R. Han
'«na- of the arrangements committee. ' • ¦
- ' Judge Pierce introduced the Utah offi
! cial, whom he characterized ': as one :. of
the " most remarkable "of . the country's
;> leading . young men. '- :¦'¦,'•' "'• ':¦'''/
i As Gov. Cutler . began his address his
>¦ wife and daugnter, who were in a private,
: - box as the guests: of Mrs. Abbot Kinney,
threw kisses to him. . .
He said: "I am reminded that Utah was
formerly ' a • part • of • . that . magnificent
1 stretch :of country that went under .the
: ; name of . California. .In the :, late forties
: when : the ilrst great movements toward
> the farther . west began, \ the pioneers of
S Utah | sang as ' they marched, | 'In * Upper
California: Oh, That's the Place for Me. ,
The west was California; California was
the west. • The ' terms were ; interchange
able. The whole ' country rang with the
; name of California. 'The Golden West'
' " was the Mecca of swarming . thousands.
In this connection no one can blame the
• ornians for still thinking that Cali
fornia is the west. And we won't object
so long as Utah Is included. .
, Settled Here
; "The Utah pioneers had much to' do
with the settlement of California. .If it
had not been for the fact that the Utah
, settlements could .be ¦ used ' as j oufltting
places for the worn and weary gold seek
ers, many more of them would have lost
¦; hope and life in the cruel desert or the
r snow-clad mountains. I am reminded also
j that some lof these .Utah: ploneerH, and
' I especially members of the famous ¦ Mor
man battalion, aided actively in building
H . up the foundations of the - southern . part
?,: of ; your / state, and some of : them i were
, 1 ln the party that discovered gold at Sut
¦7. ter's camp. And the old trail that bound
the Pacific coast with . the great : basin,
• the " old San ; Bernardino trail, was kept
!• well beaten for years after the territory
¦ of Utah was carved ; out of ; the great
reaches .of California. There : was still
', an Intimate relationship between them. ¦
•, "We are all pleased now that this re
lationship can be so much more inti
• mate, , because ;ot the shortening of ¦ the
time of travel, rou can have Utah days
ln California. We can have ; California
, days in ; Utah. On ¦ a few • days' notice
"¦ we can come to your : homes 'or you ' can
come to ours, and find the newly baked
bread still fresh, the piecrust still flaky,
.' the fatted calf Just ready to eat, the
champagne still sparkling. ,

;¦':¦« "Now I want to say a little about Utah.
As I have said, Utah was once a part of
- California. 1 ;/ It is now a sovereign and
wealthy state. In extent It Is an empire;
-in riches it fills - the ¦ widest stretches of
. imagination. . The early Spaniards who
• were ¦ lured ¦to . the shores of America •= by
' : the promise of "¦ gold ' would .r have .; had
their wildest dreams : fulfilled If : they had
' even began to compass 0, the '. wealth of
¦ Utah. Our state has v made i almost as
' many millionaires as . the ¦ , number of
those early Spanish adventurers, and
only a beginning has been made. ., .
Plan Vindicated i; ;,ij ;,.;, ,
'¦ "The wisdom of the: founders of Utah
has been vindicated. .. Their policy was to
' establish the solid , foundation ,;; of ; agri
culture,. on which ;, to , build . the splendid
¦ ¦ superstructure of ' mineral wealth. f, Min
"in«c awaited the process of home building
and : farm making. As a result, It wag
'¦ never : harder to get the barrel .of '.flour
than the barrel of gold. Bread was al
ways at hand. And when the prospector
< went . on ' his , long . Journeys into ' mineral
lands he knew that he could always find
' a habitation and a ¦ meal. . ; ;'¦, ;;*•¦ ¦ ,' ;
' "And so, mining camps . can : rise , and
i. fall ; ; mines may ,be ;. rich ,or ' exhausted;
the vein may widen :or 'pinch i out," j and
still Utah's prosperity continues. For
' :' every mine , there are constantly , produc
ing farms. As the rich mining camp of
today becomes the bare desert of tomor
row on that desert the growing farm
¦' encroaches, and it is no i longer desolate.
Yet . for • the camp deserted a great I one
arises and to that the life-giving stream
of agricultural products is diverted. > - r iw

and benevolent organizations, but this I
must leave to other*, whose close asso
ciation with these matters enables them
to speak authoritatively. I will merely
say that there Is no enforced Illiteracy ln
Utah; no Involuntary Idleness and crime;
no unrelieved distress.
"The state is munificent In Its support
of the common schools and the Institu
tions of higher education Churches of
various denominations look after the
spiritual welfare of the people, and they
are abreast of the times, as their repre
sentatives here today can pu>ve. No case
of crlmo or idleness or want remains
without attention or relief when it is
publicly known. Prosperity goes hand In
hand with a high grade of morality rfhd
content.
"Utah's people are loyal to their state.
The man or woman of Utah desires no
higher honor than to be known as its
citizen. This is their hlghext badge of
honor. It carries with It all the other
honors entailed by citizenship In the na
tion. We are as proud of our Utah citi
zenship as you are of being citizens of
California, and I know that Is saying a
great deal.
Assets Immense
"And why should we not be. loyal to
Utah? We have floated In the Invigorat
ing waters of the most famous salt sea
on earth; we have gathered snow on the
mountain tops in the sweltering heat of
summer; we have gazed from these hills
upon valleys as beautiful as those of
Switzerland, with lakes as picturesque
we have gone thousands of feet below the
surfaoe of the ground and looked upon
enough glittering ore to make the for
tunes of Creosus and Midas seem Insig
nificant; we have seen harvests rivaling
those of ancient Egypt and Mesopotamia;
we daily clasp hands with a clean, Intel
ligent, moral people; we have gazed with
adoration from the fruitful vajleys to the
white and glistening mountain tops, and
above them to a sky as blue as that of
Italy. And remembering that all these
are parts of Utah— and Utah is a free
and perfect gift, carved out of the rock-<
bound desert and bestowed upon us— we
exclaim with the poet-prophet,* 'What
hath God wrought!'
"Loyalty to Utah and her resources,
her Institutions and her people means
loyalty to the nation. There is no an
tagonism, no unfriendly rivalry between
them. We have heard a great deal of
late about threatened encroachment of
federal power upon state rights. The
fear of that has not Invaded Utah, I do
not believe there Is ground for sucH fear.
Is Accordant
"Utah is In accord with the great poli
cies of the government. Noting with
pleasure that the secretary of the navy
Is of your state, I say with emphasis that
Utah, though an Inland state, heartily
indorses the policy of building up a strong
and formidable navy. It is needed for the
protection of the coast line, and the pro
tection of the coast line means the pro
tection of the entire country. I say in
all earnestness that the making of a great
navy, and the demonstration of Its readi
ness and power In the Pacific, as well as
in the Atlantic, meets the earnest ap
proval of the people of Utah.
"In other particulars we are ln accord
with governmental policy. Almost with
out precedent is the fight of municipali
ties, states and the general movement
against graft and greed. In that fight
Utah Is Interested and Is willing to be a
participant on the side of order and hon
esty. We are proud of the record your
great city, San Francisco, has made In
the pursuit and punishment of those who
ave betrayed their trust and the honor
of their city.
"The end of this republic Is not yet.
Nor is it imminent, so long as the peo
ple who represent a majority are on the
right side ln such a conflict.
Look Deep
"Men may predict disaster; they may
proclaim to the skies their fear of tha
impending doom of the nation; they may
decry and deride the work of those who
would eliminate graft and greed and
violence; they may utter their predic-
tions In the name of widows and or
phans, or of state rights, or of vested
Interests. But when we can look below
the surface and see that the motive of
their outcry is to turn back the hand of
reform and silence the preacher of right
eousness, in order that their greed may
be unchecked and their dishonest gains
continue, we may smile at their vapor
ings and cheer on the reformer. A surgi
cal operation is painful to the physical
body or the body politic, but it Is some
times necessary, and we hope and be
lieve that in the present case it will be
beneficial.
"To the people of California I extend
greeting on behalf of the people of Utah.
Our doors are open to you. You will be
welcome whenever you visit us. Wheth
er the visit be official or unofficial, form
al or Informal, ln multitudes or singly,
we shall feel honored in entertaining you.
Extends Thanks
"For the compliments of this day ac
cept the grateful thanks of our people.
We shall feel indebted to you until an
opportunity rises to do you similar hon-

What We Are Coming To
The hold which "Dlabolo," a most
amusing, yet tiresome game, has taken
on the Parisiennes is amazing. It has
quite put an end to afternoon bridge
parties, and even at the big country
house entertainments lawn tennis, which
the Parisiennes play so wonderfully well,
Is laid aside, and everyone is occupied In
trying to balance the magic spool and
to Induce it to fly gracefully from the
twine, says the Boston Globe.
"Dlabolo" is considered a tiresome gani>>
because It looks so very easy and is, ln
reality, so horribly difficult. People re
mark, airily, that "it is all a question
of balance," but It is a singularly com
plicated question.
It is quite the fashion to spend whole
afternoons practicing this game, and
those who are not expert at It go out
alone to some quiet spot and study the
laws of balance for hours together.
