senator Dubois Views on the Nor
mon Question,

WAsnIEaToa. jim. 9, 190l.-EpIToR OF
TnE SrAsEsMAN You asked me before
/ left Boise 70 give expression to my views
concerning the present attitude Of the Nor
mon church, whether the recent NANTES
to at Salt Lake meant the actual abandon
ment of polygamy, whether there was a
necessity for further legislation in Idaho
ON the Mormon question, in short, you re-
quested & statement in general from me
expressive Of my views concerning the at
titude Of this Mormon institution toward
tho institutions OF our general govern
msnt
] take the first opportunity to comply
with your request
The subject IS such broad one, and
can be discussed from so many stand
points, that | will confine myself to the
POLITICAL SIDE OF MoRMoNIsM.
The Mormon church is q government
within our government 1t has no sym
patty with the general government liza
aims ard ambitions, instead OF being in a
line with the aims and prosperity and per
petuity of American institutions, are hos
tile to them. The highest aim Of popular
government is to make all citizens free
and independent The constant and per
sistent aim OF the Mormon church IS t.
make political serfs out Of its followers
and to prevent independent political &C
ct gFr tfn
Of government is that the will of the ma
iority shall prevail and ii is the object o
parties to convince the individuals by al
guments addressed to their reason and pa
triotism.
THE FOUNDATION sPoNE OF MoRMoNIsM
is that the VIII OF God shall prevail, ant
that His viii is expressed and mad
known through an hierarchy called rresi
dents, Apostles, etc. There is such an il
reconeilable dlller1uce between the tw
political systems that only one Of them cal
survive One or the other must bs dc
stroyed.
Up to within a recent time the MoTmo
church has offended against the mora

NeWspaper LAWS.

The following are the laws laid down
by the United States Government for
the protection of ne wspapers:
Subscribers who do not give express
notice to the contrary, are considered as
wishing to continue their subscription
Ifsubscribers order the discontinuance
of their periodicals, the publisher may
continue to send them until all arrear-
ages are paid. @-N. -.
If subscribers move to other places
without informing the publishers and
papers are sent to the former direction,
they are held responsible.
The courts have decided that refusing
to take periodicals from the Office before
removing and leaving them uncalled for
is prima facie evidence of intentional
fraud.
Ifsubscribers pay in advance, they are
bound to give notice to the publisher at
the end Of. their time, if they do not
wish to continue taking it; otherwise the
publisher is authorized to send it on and
the subscriber will be responsible until
an express notice, with payment of all
arrears is sent to the publisher.
Publishers of newspa lera can under
law, arrest any man for fraud who takes
paper and refuses to pay for it. Under
this law it is a dangerous trick for man
to allow his subscription account to run
e - L
unpaid and then tell the postmaster to
mark refused" or to send the editor
notice to discontinue the paper.
