high MORMON TALKS.
Woodruff, President of the
Mormon Church, Tells
Of the Trial.
He Denies That the Church Is
DisloyaI to the Gov
ernment.

CHICAGO, Nov. 23.-In response to a tele-
gram from the Associated Press asking a
statement concerning the present investi-
gation 10 Salt Lake City, President Wood
ruff of the Mormon church sends a dis
patch in which he says this is the periodi'
cal Mormon sensations, which we are &C
customed to expect in November. Con-
gress meets in December and 1t Is presumed
the usual efforts win be made to secure
legislation against Mormons. In addition
we are on the eve of an important munich
palielection here, which the anti-Mormons
hope to carry by the non-natufalization
of the Mormons. There is absolutely moth.
ing in the Mormon religion Inconsistent
with the most patriotic devotion to the
government Of the United States. The
commandments Of the church require the
constitution and laws OF the land to
be upheld, and is also a part of our belief.
The time will come when the country will
be distracted and general lawlessness pre-
walls, then the Mormon people will step
forward and take an active part in res
cuingt the nation from ruin.
In regard to the claim that the priest
hood or chief autho.it titles OF the church
assert the right to control the Mormon
people in all temporal, including political
affairs, I would say ! am the head Of the
church and I do not make any such claim.
It would be impossible to exercise it il /
did. The charge OF undue interference in
elections is absurd. The balloting is strictly
secret. All the management OF elections in
the smallest details are in the hands OF the
United States government appointees.
That Mormons are united politically is
largely due to their being constantly and
vindicatively assailed by the small minority
who seek to control the majority.
A good deal is being made Of q form of
of prayer. based upon the verses in
the sixth chapter Of the Revelations of st.
in the New Testament. 1t relates to
OF the prophets. An attempt has been
made to connect this with ~avenging the
death Of Joseph and Hiram Smith. 1t
have 10 such application, as the endow-
ment vas given long before the death OF
Joseph and Hiram Smith and has not
been charged. These men were murdered
by a local mob disguised.
Concerning the cry about blood atone |
there is no foundation. Our re-
ligious faith is the relief in atoning for the
blood OF Christ. We believe in the scripture |
doctrine "Whosoever shed mans blood by |
man shall bis blood be she'd" We also be-
lieve that all execution for murder shall be /
under the law OF the land and by it's Of
ficers.
The statements of a postateM ormon wit
npsses that the endowment ceremonies in
volve tho death penalty upon those who
We the church and disobey the priesthood
are untrue. Mormons on the stand have the
right to decline to disclose the innocent
OF endowment just as the Masons
have the right to disclose Masonic rituals.

The Investigation.

SALT LAKE, Nov. 23.-In the Mormon
Investigation to-day James Talmage, prin-

ministered did not interfere with the reve-
lation of God. Witness believed polygamy

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 23.-Advices by the

Exercise for Horse. IN Winter.

A mistaken kindness often keeps horses
close in their stables. They shiver, yet they
sre not turned ont because it Is thought they
would get colder. A hearty play, running
and kicking up their heels, will quicken the
circulation and warm them up and If per-
mitted. they viii take this exercise gladly,
Not only their comfort, but also their health
demands this froIic. Accustomed to steady
work for months, they are suddenly deprived
Of exercise. Being Shut up until they are
eneryated, their muscles made soft and
fabby. they are untitled for spring work.
When unemployed, a horse should be given
It's liberty at least two hours every day that
Is not very stormy. The farm is not rigidly
managed when there Is no work FOR the
horses in winter. A horse consuming, but
not producing, during six months, destroys
the profits from his labor during the other
sfx months. Laborers can be had at Iow
wages during the winter and employment for
them and the horses can be found. When
the horse IL given Sunday rest it should be
allowed some exercise. Rest Is not total ces-
sation from movement this is more tiresotne
than moderate work. The greatest rest Is
when nature has the best chance to repair
waste, and gentle exercise Is one Of the con
ditions fayorabIt TO the making Of new ma
terial. A lot three or four acres in extent,
with an open shed In one corner, il what Is
wanted for an exercise ground.
