WHERE THE FAULT LIES.
MASSES of the Mormon People Are
Honest and True.

1t was reported to US at the close of
the Young Ladies Mutual Improvement
conference recently held in Logan that
Mrs. Zina Y Card had advised the
sisters TO go TO their stake presidents for
instruction and counsel as to how they
should vote We felt like asking at the
time why a subject of her majesty,
Queen Victoria, should come into
America from the British dominion and
give the voters of Utah advice like that
But we realized how difficult it has been
TO ask plain, respectful question with
out some one saying that we are making
an attack upon the person of whom or to
whom the question is asked. So we let
the matter pass. Yesterday, however. it
came TO our ears that President Orson
Smith had corrected her then and there
and had said that it is the duty of Utah
women to study well the principles of
politics and decide for themselves as to
which party they shall join. We say
all honor TO OrSon Smith for that. His
patriotic words bear witness to what we
have long believed: That the bishops.
stake presidents, their counselors, the
apostles and other officers of the church
do not, as a rule, desire to dictate or
sway the political actions Of those under
them. This desire to control the votes
of the people is confined to but two or
three of the leaders. Ninety per cent of
the others think as Orson Smith does.

A plain Statement.

We have plain statement to make
and a simple question to ask.
No one but an honest, intelligent man
or woman will understand the analogy.
When political party is injured by
some high church official, we are told
that the church is not to blame as he
is acting without authority, IN his IN
diviGual capacity.
When an organ of the injured party
comedies this and proceeds to crilicaze
the Individual who has injured it,, we are
told that an attack is being made upon
the church.
That is our statement of fact. The
question we desire to ask is this:
Has any man the right TO hight as an
individual and defend himself as
churchman?
We hope our readers see the point

NEWCASTLE. Wyo., May 1s.-Frank
Barnard, a cowboy in the employ of the
Standard Cattle company, was struck by
lightning and instantly killed on Mon
day Barnard was driving the roundup
wagon at the time of the accident, which
occurred near Merino. His body was

Smith in an attack upon Sellars, fired
the shot by which Smith met his death,
and that all of Sellers actions during the
fight Were in defense of his own life.

A PECULIAR INCIDENT.
How Freight Car With n Valuable
Cargo Was Lost and Found

Cargo Was Lost and Found.
A very peculiar accident happened on
the Burlington & Missouri River rail-
road yesterday. A freight train en-
route east had a most valuable cargo,
consisting of silk, wine and honey The
train was making special time and had
a sixty-mile order.
For some distance down the river the
railroad follows its meanderings, and
at one point there is a succession of
sharp curves. In passing around one
of these on a down grade the train
broke in two. The engineer did not
at once discover the danger, but as
soon as he became aware of the fact
that the detached section of the train
was liable to run into the main portion
he put on steam and pulled out, think
ing to get around the bend and slack
up and catch the rear end as it came
along.
There was in the middle of this train
an old-fashioned boxcar of the Wabash
which contained the valuable freight
above mentioned, and it appears that
the coupling-pin, having broken in two,
the top flew out and the lower end of
the pin fell down on the track. In
making the curve the car was thrown
off like the tassel of a carriage whip.
and the next one behind it came up
and the bumpers fitted so nicely that
no one could nave told a car was miss
ing. When tbs train reached the st.
Joseph yard and was checked up this
particular car was gone, and there was
no accounting for it. a message was
at once sent to the division headquar-
tiers next west of here, and reply re-
ceived that the car had left there all
right. The question then was, what
had become of it?
A ranchman who had been sIcirting
the river bank came upon a large rock,
and in looking about for the steer he
was after, found the car behind the
rock The seals were still on the doors
in good shape, and he did not feel like
breaking them; but noticing the wine
running out through the cracks in the
floor and sides of the car, and realizing
that much good property was being
wasted, he put his pony to a gallop
and, reaching the nearest telegraph
station. notified the agent, who sent
message to St. Joseph informing I. Z.
Dyer, the train dispatcher, of the dis
covery.
A wrecking outfit was sent to the
scene and soon had the car on her
trucks, and the most valua BILE part of
the cargo was found to be uninjured.
THE silk was, in fact, on the top of the
load, and was not damaged by the
wine, while the honey was in as good
shape as when it left the Pacific coast.
The car was III such good shape that
it did not even have to go to the shop
for repairs, bur was sent along on its
journey eastward last night-St Jo-
