from the sales had been used. There was
nothing else but for some of US to give our
individual notes to the receiver for the
value Of that property. We did so, and we
have just paid one OF those notes for $50, 900.
But we have enough to eat and something
to wear, and we don't complain if the gov
eminent thinks best to take what we have
got We are now paying rental, about
eight hundred dollars a month, for the
property taken. That property was a sage
brush plain when we got it. All it is worth
to-day the MormOns made it. This was a
sorry looking place, L tell you, when we
came here. The first view Brigham Ypung
had of it was from my wagon as he rode
down the canon. The first seizure Of prop
erty by the government included the
Temple block, our houses of worship The
receiver proposed that we retain the use of
the block and pay a nominal rental OF 81
month, but all of the other property taken
is still held by the receiver, awaiting the
action OF the supreme court of the United
States. Whatever the result, we shall &C
quiesce as cheerfully as possible and go on
doing the best we can"
The president smiled, but Immediately his
countenance sobered as he said
What hurts US most of all is to be so
misunderstood by the rest of the country.
1t seems impossible to get people in the east
to understand us as we are. Tfey listen to

had ceased entirely until this particular
case came up the other day. This case, as
l said, do not understand, but it will be
looked into"
What the result of the investigation will
be, the president did not predict. But one
of the twelve apostles speaking of the mat
ter afterward said, IF it shall appear that
a plural marriage was effected, as the evil
dence indicates, l, for one, shall favor cut
ting off from the church the man who is re-
sponsible for the misrepresentation which
made this plural marriage possible. This
thing must stop"
Before the conversation with the presi-
dent came to an end, reference was made
to his nativity.
Yes" he said, 81 was born in Connect
cut, the land of steady habits, wooden nut
megs and the blue laws
Six generations of the family were resi-
dents of that state before him. The family
home was at Avon, in Hartford county.
The Woodruffs were millers, and the father
of President Woodruff was exempted from
service in the American army during the
Revolution because he could do more with
his mill than with his musket. Other mem-
bers of the family enlisted and fought for
civil and religious liberty. Tho president
lived at Avon until he was of age. His con
version to Mormonism dates from 1882,
when he heard an elder preach the new
faith at a school house in OSWego county,
New York, The following year he went
to Kirkland, and there met Joseph Smith,
the founder of the church. Ia 1888 he
became one of the twelve apostles. The
apostles hold power in the Mormon church
equal to that of the president. When a
vacancy occurs in the presidency Of the
church the custom is to make the apostle
Oldest in the service the new president.
In this way, after nearly fifty years of
apostle5hip, Wilford Woodruff became the
president Of the church, being the fourth
man to hold that position.
Those who look to the head Of the church
for startling manifestations of divine
power get little encouragement from the
clear headed, straightforward man. There
were many revelations received through
Joseph Smith. Several, but not many,
were given to the church through Brigham
Young. John Taylor, the third president,
did next to nothing in the way of direct
revelation. The present prophet, seer
and revelator," as the head Of the church
is called,
HAS vIBws UPON THIS SUBJECT
which are interesting. President Wood
ruff says:
The Lord does not give revelations or
send angels to men or work miracles to &C
commodate the notions Of any man who is
seeking for sign. The teachings of the
Prophet Joseph Smith to US was to obtain
the holy spirit, get acquainted with it and
its operations and listen to the whisperings
of that spirit and obey its voice, and it soon
would become a principle of revelation
unto US. / wish to say that l do not think
that the Lord ever sends an angel to the
earth to visit the children of men unless it
is necessary to introduce dispensation Of

without waiting to be questioned about IT.
He spoke with much warmth. He seemed
to feel keenly the position in which he was
placed by such testimony. When he
learned that his visitor had made a trip to
Provo for the purpose of investigating the
Jesperson case, he asked:
'What did you think of it!n
He was told that the woman had testified
very plainly that the marriage ceremony
2 was performed on the Sth of April and that
. part of it had been performed at Manti and
Nthe rest at the endowment house.
The presidents brow clouded as he said
''It seems incredible. If it is true, it is
against all Of my instructions. do not IN
derstand it at all. We are looking into it,
and shall not rest until we get at all of the
facts. There is no intention on our part to
do anything but to obey the law"
As the president concluded, his mouth
closed with an expression of settled deter
mination. Resident Gentiles sneer at those
who take the words of the Mormons for
anything in which the church is concerned.
