dangerously stabbed by fellow coun-

INTERFERING IN POLITICS.
Tho Mormon Church Again Showing Its
Teeth in Utah.

Salt Lake, Utah, April THE semi
annual conference of the Mormon church
which has been in session three days,
closed last night by the issuance of a
manifesto by the heads of the church
which has created not little dismay.
The manifesto begins by disclaiming
on the part of the heads of the church
any desire that the church should domi-
nate over the state. The incidents of
last fall'ssselection, when two men, Mos
es Thatcher and b. 81. Roberts, high in
office in the church, were convicted for
accepting nominations on the Dem ora
tic ticket without receiving the permits
sion of the first presidency are referr ed
to, and then the manifesto says that
the church leaders have unanimously
agreed to and now promulgate a rule
that before accepting any position or no
mination, political or otherwise, mem
bers of the church who hold any church
office, and 70 per cent of the Mormon
people do hold offices, must apply to the
proper authorities and learn from them
whether they will be permitted to accept
such nomination or position"
Moses Thatcher, who accepted the NOM
inatiou for United States Senator with
out consulting the first presidency, was
deposed from his office of an apostle in
the church during the conference.

main In his (Spauldings') service, until

HE HAD FORGOTTEN 1T.
But That Didn't Help to Make Things Bit
Pleasant for Him.

Perhaps the Hon. A. Oakley Hall, once
mayor of New York. but now a journal
list again, might have been equal to the
task of expressing the feelings of a Port
land business man yesterday. Last week
MIR. Hall had occasion to say that the
bride of ex-President Harrison lost her
first husband early in her married life,
nd SO he observed, "bafore her wedding
wreath had fully faded, the conquere1
who rides the White Horse of the Apo
calypso gazetted her widow" and such
richness of style would have simply
adorned the occasion referred to.

when he discovered yesterday that is was

take that. train to go on brief visit, he
made rush for the next electric and
was there abouU five minutes before the
train left.
"I'm glad you've come" said his wife,

get for me-"
"Not T. replied the husband with the
air of one who feels that he has dis

and got the things. Then 1 went back
and you see Pm here, but I had to run

"But where is the packages?" said his
wife trifie impatientIy.
And then it was that a look of surprise
crept over the face nf the husband, and
he slowly replied, 81 guess 1 must have
left it in the office.
The fact that the train was about to

while his wife had chance to talk she
improved the fleeting seconds, and i'm.
pressed strongly ON his mind that he
was to go straight back to the Office and
send her the package by express. The

Nominated.

St. Louis, April 7.-Col. H. L. Swords
sergeant-at-arms of the Republican Ma

ley's defeat at the convention.
''Ihe real fight" he says, twill be be-
tween Allison and Harrison. l think
Mckinley will go in to the convention
with about 1876 less than majority, and
he will be- the strongest at the start. He
is the popular idol, but popular idols sell

twenty years ago, 1 felt certain that
Blaine, q popular idol, would be the
nominee. He was stronger apparently
just before the convention than MoXin'
ley is now. The winner this time will
be either Harrison or Allison"
