ONCE AGAIN.
BISHOP HOSKINs BACKS L
JOSEPH F.
Gives His Hearers at II Religious
Meeting to Understand That the
Church Desires the Defeat of
Roberts ana Thatcher.

BRIGHAM CITY, Oct. ga reliable
person brings word from Portage of
peculiar remarks having been made
in the regular afternoon meeting Sum
day. The speaker was President o. c.
Hosl1ins. He is a Republican. Fol-
lowing in the line of the words credited
to Bishop Abraham Zundel of Willard,
and vocing what he thought was the
spirit of the thoughtless remarks of
Joseph +. in that now notorious priest
hood meeting, President HoSkinS gave
his hearers to understand that the de-
feat of MesSrS. Roberts and Thatcher
was the wish of the church leaders.
Many people up that way are much
stirred up over Hoskins unwise re-
marks, which were too plain to be
mistaken. If, as the first presidency
claim in their letters of denial, their
remarks had no political bearing. then
how would honest men, like Bishop
Zundel. of Willard, and President Hos
kins, of Portage, be so misled as to
catch up and carry to their respective
communities and voice to them what
they thought was the spirit Of those
priesthood meeting remarks, and do it
in language too plain to be mistaken?
The Democrats of these parts are
aroused to the Importance of the great
convention to be held in Salt Lake
next Tuesday A full representation
from this county is almost a certainty.
One enthusiastic young man, one of
the delegates from Calls Fort, said:
TN get there next Tuesday if [ have
to walk all the way to Salt Lake"
Corinne is a Republican stronghold
made up almost entirely Of eX-Liberals
a prominent Democrat was over there
this week. He says he found the town
elated over what they called the
church coming out on their side.
Word comes from Plymouth, this
county, that Messrs Roberts and
Game created such a favorable i'm.
preston up there that ten Republicans
have come out and boldly remarked
that at least these two candidates on
the Democratic ticket viii receive their
votes.

his possession when he was finally cap
tured.
Charles Means and Charles Randolph
were on trial charged with counterfeit
ing and also on another count for hav-
ing in their possession molds for the
purpose of making counterfeit half dol
lars The evidence tended to show that
Randolph passed some counterfeit
money but none of the evidence Showed
that he either made any or had the
dies in his possession. z. 7. Hulaniski,
attorney for the defense laid great
stress on the exact wording of the in
Gatment which said nothing about
passing spurious money. The jury we're
absent about half an hour when they
brought in a verdict of guilty on both
counts for Means and guilty on neither
for Randolph. The attorney gave no.
tice of intention to set aside the verdict
in the case of Randolph and the matter
will be argued today at o'clock, after
which sentence will be passed provid-
ing the motion is not granted.
The following short orders We're also
made:
The people VS.. Coughlin and George;
ordered that defendant George be
brought into court at 10 a. m. tomorrow
The people VS.. Henry Allen; ordered
that defendant be confined in county
Jail until further orders of the court.
