opposed to sprtnser,s scheme.

SALT LAKE, Utah, Dec. 18.-The lib.
eral committee Of Utah has issued the
following address to the country: The
liberal territorial committee, represent
ing Republicans and Democrats alike,
desire to call attentino to the fact
that the gentiles Of Utah unani-
mously oppose the Mormon statehood
scheme recently adopted by the Dem.
ocratlc congressional caucus. We are
confronted by a condition. not a theory.
Po!ygamy is not dead. The law is not
supreme. Two hundred and thirty.four
indictments were found at the present
term Of court at ProYp' for violation
Of United States statutes designed to
suppress polygamy and polygamist liv-
ing. To give Utah statehood would re-
tard progress, depreciate values, per-
petuate polygamy and hand the terri
tory oyer to the Mormon priesthood.
We call upon the patriotic citizens
everywhere to unite in strong protests
TO congress against the proposed action.
The admission Of Utah to statehood
would be q crime against American
institutions.

Returning Hopefulness.

Col. John Ely was In town Monday
evening. Meeting the INTER-OcEAN lie
said, "Give it to me mild. 1t wasn't my

Hungry Half. Breeds.

Last week several hundred half breeds
crossed the line from Manitoba for the
purpose OF securing u share of the rations
Uncle Sam was about to distribute at
Turtle mountain. Agent Brennan re-
fused to give the invaders anything, and
they forthwith organized and raided the
commissary, helping themselves TO what
they wanted. The situation was reported
by wire to Fort Totem and a small CON-
pany Of troops was dispatched to the
scene, arriving there on Monday. The
rations were thon distributed to the In
dams and breeds who were entitled to
them, the Manitoba breeds quietly re-
firing over the line. The troops returned
Wednesday. The rumor that trouble
would follow is without foundation.

ber Of the. last legislature. aud whose
ability won him a%re-eleclion this year,
stating that In all probability an effort
will he. made ut tho coming session to
have the territory provide seed wheat to
those farmers. who lost their crop last
summer and are unable Ia buy the seed
they will require next spring. The gen
tleman suggests that the farmers make
their wants known now, so that the
legislature, when it meets. will have
the fabts OF hand necessary to enable it
to handle the subject lntelligently. The
legislature will no doubt make an ap-
preparation for the purpose. The
plan will probably contemplate a lien
upon the crop of the person benefited,
and the loan should DO without interest.
Only those who are absolutely in need
ofsuch assistance should apply for it.
A board Of commissioners should be ap-
pointed by the legislature TO attend to
the business.
But, as stated above, tho legislature
must have facts and statistics to work
upon, and those who intend to avail
themselves Of the territory's offer should
make their wants known now. Names

question was brought up today at the
meeting of the committee on territories
aud it was unanimously determined to
call up the bill of Representative Baker
for the admission uf South Dakota on
Jan. Is. under the resolution Of the
house making the question the special
order from day to day. Amer tho Baker
bill IL taken IN 1t is proposed to sub
stitute for 1t the omnibus bill agreed
upon by the Democratic caucus and
bring the latter up every day until 1t
should be finally acted upon bv the
house. The committee decided to give
a hearing, January 9, to all persons in.
terested in the bills for the admission OF
Utah.
Mr.. Cox has come out very plainly A.
q persistent friend of the two Dakotas.
He will offer an amendment I o the
omnibus bill providing for the seating
of two congressman from South Dakota;
and he will support an enabling act for
North Dakota SO that she can enter the
union whenever ready. He says he
does not believe in delaying for the pur-
pose Of getting an expression Of opinion
from the people as to division as there
was no doubt as to their wishes in that
respect.
