THE GAS TROUBLE.

gas wells in Davis county are able t.

The trouble has been brewing o
long time, and now has reached a stage
In which the public are directly inter

able to supply the desired quantity OF
illuminant to this city, and are pre-
vented from doing so by the schemes
OF the gas and electric light company to
secure the wells ami run things their
own way, then the said schemes are
an ,utrsge upon the public which
should not be tolerated one week,
no matter how wealthy or prom.

Messrs. Nephi l.. Morris, Arnold q.
Giauque, Arthur f. Barnes, II. c.
Badger and T. A. Clawson:
Dear BrethreD-In response to your
esteemed communication OF the 9th
inst, l have determined, after confer.
ence with several Of the Apostles. to
offer some explanations on the case OF
Mesee Thatcher and comments on the
correspondence 10 which you refer,
through the columns OF the DEsERET
NEWS.
The Apostles did not view the publi-
cation OF the letters that passed to and
from Brother Moses Thatcher and
them as calling for any controversy on
their part. Nor did they think It
proper thing to give those ecclesiastical
communications general publicity
through secular newspapers The Letters
tearing my signature we're not prepared
with design for publication, " hatever
the others might have beeu-snd
were regarded as Church matters for
the consideration solely OF the respec-
tive parties. 1t is only because those
letters have been given to the public,
and because 1t SCENE, from what you
say, that an impr Jper Impression has
been made upon the minds OF some
people thereby, that comply with the
request to meet some OF the statements
they contain.
The evident purpose In publishing
those communications was to excite
public sympathy .and the unnecessary
and supeifuous appeals they contain
convey the impression that they were
concocted for that purpose. They
were not relevant to the issue Involved.
Moses Thatcher was not on trial for
bis fellowship. Specific charges were
not preferred either In public or In
private. The question was solely as to
his standing as one OF the Apostles, in
consequence OF his lack OF harmony
with the Quorum OF the Twelve
OF which h. was member.
That question he could have set
tied at any time II he had
so desired, and that without formal
trial. BY placing himself In. harmony
with his Quorum, In the spirit OF hu-
mility and conformity with its rules,
OF which he was not in ignorance, he
could have saved himself all the trou.
bic and deprivation OF which he com.

A STATEMENT FROM PRESIDENT
LORENZO SNOW.


The following correspondence nseds
neither explanation nor comment. save
the suggestion that President Shows
letter Is deserving Of, and doubtless
will receive, the most careful consider.
alton Of all Latter.dsy Saints:
SALT LAKE CITY.
Nov. Q, 1896.
Elder Lorenzo Snow, President OF the
Twelve APOSTLE:
Dear Brother--As there has been
much discussion over the correspond
ouce between Moses Thatcher and
yourself, and some OF cur own people
are at sea in regard to the primary
cause OF Brother Thstcher's lack OF
harmony with your quorum, leading
to his exoommunic thereirom, In
behalf OF number OF such persona we
pen you this commu nicatiop.
We are aware that the difficulty
mainly rested with the Twelve and
one OF It's members; also that when
action was taken in the case there was
no need Of your Masking further ex-
plantations. We can appreciate your
abstinence from controversy, on
n purely Church matter, through
the public prints. But seeing that
there appears to be m apprehension
OF the facts In the case, and that many
good people are liable, in consequence
If that, to form incorrect conclusions,
we respectfully ask you, II it be not
inconsistent with any rule Of the
Church or OF the Council over which
you preside. to make some public
statement which will serve to place
this mater 10 Its true light before the
Saints, and clear away The mis,s which,
10 some at least, seem to surround the
subject OF Moses rhaicher's deposition.
AS he has given to the world the pri'
vate correspondence that passed be-
tween you and him in Church
capacity, is 1t fair, even to yourself
and your nssocioter, to leave the matter
In Its present condition and open to 80
much mlsconstruction7 II you would
mske an explanatory abatement
through the LEsERET News, we be-
lieve 1t would lie highly esteemed by
many others, as well as
Your brethren In the Gospel,

with cream colt'r, rose with reseda yellow
with willow green. ciel blue with tea rose.
French batistes that are scmi-diaphanous
and have a silk lustrous surface are easily
mistaken for India silks, as they are very
sirnilarly patterned. Some modistes make
these up over inexpensive silks. while others
prefer Pa risienne or plainsatren. These ba-
