AS VIEWED BY A NE1GHBoR.

The Denver News, commenting on
the Mormon church address promulgat-
ing the church rule as to it's high Off
Gals accepting political nomination,
says:
The Mormon conference in session at
Salt Lake has issued an address to the
people defining its attitude toward the
state, or in other words toward political
parties. 1t is signed by all of the lead
ing dignitaries of the church, except
Moses Thatcher.
The address denies in the most posi-
tive terms that it has any intention of
interfering with the state, and repud-
lates the idea of any union of church
and state. This leaves the Mormon
people free to think, act and vote as
they please, and to ally themselves
with any political party they desire to
join. free from all interference or die
tation on the part of the church. This
is broad enough for everybody, and
places the Mormon church in line with
all other churches or denominations.
In the matter of church officials oc-
cupying offices, the following rule is
laid down:
I'VE unanimously agree to and pro-
mitigate as rule that should
by every leading official thereof, that
before accepting any position, political
or otherwise, which would interfere
with the complete discharge of his
ecclesiastical duties, and before ac-
cepting a nomination or entering into
engagements to perform new duties,
said official should apply to the proper
authorities and learn from them
whether he can, consistently with the
obligations already entered into with
the church upon assuming his Office,
take upon himself the added duties and
labors and responsibilities of the new
position"
The News sees no objection to this
rule. AS understood, it means that a
church official should not accept a po-
litical office without the consent of the
church, that is if he desires to retain
the church position. He could of
course, resign the church position and
accept the political position, if he so
desires. In view of the peculiar organ
ization of the Mormon church the rule
may be very necessary one. 1t will
tend to prevent a bishop, for instance,
from using his ecclesiastical influences
to further his political ambitions, and
in this view of the matter the rule will
operate to keep church and state apart.
The tone of the address, as outlined in
the telegram, is both patriotic and pro-
gressive, and thoroughly American in
sentiment.
There can be no question but what
the new manifesto, as the recent ad-
dress has come to be known, will be a
distinct advancement towards an ami
cable understanding of the political sit
uation in Utah And as the document
positively disclaims any disposition to
establish any domination of the state
by the church, 1T can be cheerfully &C
cepted by all who have contended in
the past for that principle and who
will continue in the future to insist up
on its observance

PADEREwsKI In DENVER.

10 the prosperous town of Denver,
10 that triving, busting city,
Came one day, great musician
Slender-fngered huge of scalp-lock,
PADDY Roosky. the people called him,
Though he himself pronounced it differ
ent;
Poh-thref-sky, he said his name was.
And the people thronged to hear him,
Struggled madly at the box Office
Paid s. for a ticket
Just to hear this sweet musician
Then the gifted Paddy Roosky
Made his bow before the audience,
Who in silence sat expectant,
And began to use entertainments
And to practice arts of magic.
First he squared himself for business,
Limbered up his joints a trifie,
Shook his yellow topknot somewhat,
And his little eyes glared at them
Like the piercing eyes of Pawguk.
Then he smote the grand piano
In a way that was a caution,
To those primitive folk of Denver.
First he began with adagio,
Very slow and stately playing,
Sometimes changing to allegro
Or Staccato, Smoothhand gliding,
Swelling into loud crescendo,
Sinking into soft piano,
And even into pianissimo.
Then he changed his tactics somewhat,
Turned little more of steam on,
Pounded loudly like all forte,
Seemed as if the wood was Chopin.
And the folk. as they Liszt to him,
Stared in wonder at the clatter,
Didn't understand the motif
Or ascertain what he was up to.
So they sat awhile in patience.
Listening to the various noises,
Waiting for an air familiar,
Till they couldn't stand it longer.
With cry they rose as one man,
Shouted for a change of programme,
Sweet Marie" they demanded of him,
Or the Sidewalks of New York.
Said they'd paid to hear some music,
And they wanted it instanter

A high tariff New York paper that is

makes this rather remarkable state
ment that is, remarkable for a pro-
lection journal:
But the supporters of unlimited
coinage at the ratio of 16 to 1 complete
ly ignore some of the most important
elements Of the question. Neither sill
yer nor iron, nor any other material
produced in this country, has the right
to be made an especial favorite at the
expense of other interests.
All Democrats will agree with that,
that nothing produced in this country
has ''the right to be made an especial
favorite at the expense of other in
terests." That is true, but the very
theory of protection is, and the prac-
tice of the Republican party has been.
to confer upon certain industries ia
vors that were denied to others. No
two industries have been more favored
in this way than wool and iron. And
the same might be said of hundreds of
other articles. Is there no favoritism
when the producer is permitted to put
his hand in the pockets of the consu1n-
er and take therefrom the amount Of
the tariff upon his article?
This journal from which we quoted
above has the effrontery to ask:
BY what authority do a handful of
silver-mine owners demand, through
their agents in the United States SEN
ate, that the federal government shall
precipitate wholesale panic and rob
wage-earners, farmers, savings-bank
depositors and business men from
ocean to ocean in order to make silver
mining profitable?
The silver-mine owners do not de-
mand that the government shall pre-
cipitate wholesale panic or rob anyone.
They simply ask that silver be given
the same rights of access to the minis
of the United States that gold is
given; nothing more, nothing less.
In turn we would ask by what au-
thority the tariff people demand that

The premature explosion of giant
powder on the pipe line of the Ogden
power dam at station 231, whereby
five men were killed outright and five
were very seriously injured, was very
distressing indeed. 1t will cast a
gloom over the men working on the
dam and will bring sorrow to many
families. 1t appears to have been an
accident and that no blame attaches
to anyone.
