Judge c. W. Rennat+.

Judge Bennett, when seen in refer
ence to- the address of President Wood
ruff. said he was out of politics and
Intended to keep out, but speaking
broadly he would say that the only
way TO successfully work out the sal
walton of the state was for the parties
to adhere firmly to party lines. The
Liberal party might be revived and
would probably carry Salt Lake, but
would have little power in the rest of
the state The two great parties should
attend strictly to business and in time
the desired result would be achieved
True. the gauntlet has been thrown
down, but the influence of the church
leaders to control in matters political
is far from being as potent as it once
was. There is an element in the Nor
mon church which they cannot control
and if the Republicans and Democratic
parties keep up their organizations and
so right ahead, this element will in
crease until the power of the church in
politics shall have disappeared as q
factor to be considered.

LIVE STOCK BRANDS.
An 09inion Given Out BY Attorney
General Bishop.

Attorney General Bishop yesterday
rendered State Auditor Richards an
opinion on the question as to whether
the auditor is required to re-reeord a
live stock brand or mark in the name
OF an heir of an estate which formerly
owned the brand, application for the
re-recording being made under the
law of 1891 Inasmuch as the opinion
is of general interest to all owners of
live stock, the opinion is herewith re-
produced:
In answering the question it may
be pertinent to observe, that under the
statutes of this state, a brand, when
duly recorded, constitutes a property
right. and as such is the subject Of
assignment IN the same manner as
other personal property. 1t might also
be the subject of bequest and be dis
posed of by the viii Of the decedent.
In the absence of any such bequest,
however, the title thereto would vest
in the executor or administrator as
against all others, and would be sub
ject to administration the same as
other personal property belonging to
said estate.
If sold or assigned by the admin
istrdtor or executor. it must be done
in the manner provided by law, and as
is usual in such cases, by an order
OF the court having jurisdiction of the
subject matter. The assignee of an
owner of any brand might make appli-
cation 10 have the same re-reeorded in
his own name and when satisfied that
such assignment had been duly and
legally made, it would be your duty as
recorder Of marks and brands to grant
the application.
so. too the assignee of the executor
or administrator of the deceased might
also apply TO have the same re-recorded
in his name, and when satisfied that
such assignment had been duly and
legally made, it would be your duty to
re-record the same in his name
From the foregoing observations it
follows that the heir of decedent, as
such, has no legal right to have re-
recorded in his name, a brand which
belonged to his deceased ancestor, nor
would it be incumbent upon you, as a
public officer, to recognize such appli-
cation"

Monk Released.

James T. Monk yesterday morning
appeared before judge Cherry and AS
sistant County Attorney Putnam stated
that Ny. Monk had turned over six
books Of the mining records of the Big
Cottonwood mining district which had
beep kept by him, but had failed 10
turn over two other books which had
been kept by his predecessor. but which
were in his custody. Mr. Putnam sug-
gested that as Mr.. Monk had promised
TO bring in the other two books he be
released from custody with the under
standing that when he brought in the
two books he would have purged him
self of the contempt for which he was
imprisoned, and the court so ordered.
Later - the day Monk was brought
before Judge Norrel To answer to the
charge OF removing and concealing the
records Of his Office and Was LEI 20 on

OPINIONS AT PROVO.
Cash Does Not Think Present Con
ditions VIII Be Disturbed.

Provo. Oct S.-Asked how he felt
about the address of President Wood
ruff, which has had such a sensational
effect throughout the state, Chairman
Cash said: u am OF the opinion that
this is a matter which requires long
and careful consideration. 1t is hard
for me to think that it is the desire of
the president of the dominant church,
or any other man, great or small, to
go back to the old conditions, and un-
der the explanation and Interpretation
placed upon the language used by the
president of the church. as given in the
papers this morning, I rather think
that the statement will pass off with
out having any material effect upon
the conditions which have existed for
the past four or five years.
But here I may as we'll say that
men who are high in the coun6els of
any church ought to preach the gospel
of Peace on earth, good viii to men,
instead of using Incorporate utter
ances about state affairs in the pulpit
to throw the people into confusion. 1t
would be well for all men who are the
advisers of the people of any church
to read that part of the constitution Of
this state which says. There shall be
no union of church and state; nor shall
any church dominate the state OF in
terfere With its functions" This is an
American principle which must be
lived up to in every state in this union
no matter what the cost may be to
maintain II -

The Wray-Kearns case terminated
at noon yesterday by the jury return
ing a unanimous verdict for the de-
PENDANT When court convened at $3.50
O'Clock in the morning Judge Cherry
Immediately delivered his charge to the
jury. 1t was brief and to the point and
occupied less than Is minutes TO de-
liver.
CHARGE TO THE JURY.
After stating the case his honor in
structed the jury that for the plaintiff
to recover she must prove beyond a
reasonable doubt that prior to May /.
1896, the date Of the alleged seduction,
she was chaste and virtuous; that she
Was at that time an unmarried woman:
that She Was then under the aSe Of ~
years, and that Kearns had seduced
her on or about the time alleged in the
complaint. Then his honor defined
what constituted seduction as defined
in the statutes. the principal point be
ing that the girl must have been over
persuaded by protestations and actions
calculated TO produce love and affee-
ton and that she had not submitted
herself for money or other conSidera-
ton OF that kind.
IF the jury found that the plaintiff
had been Seduced by the defendant in
assessing the damages they must con-
slider the mental suffering. disgrace and
anguish TO the plaintiff as a eonse-
Quence Of the act, as We'll as the actual
pecuniary damages sustained by her.
The question as To whether or not
the plaintiff was married after May L
1896, the date of the alleged act, should
not be considered as against her right
TO recover and whether or not she lead
q chaste life after the act of May l. if
such act was committed, does not at
feet her right to recover.
If the jury believed that she Was a
married woman on May l. 1896 then
she could not recover
The jury must, for the plaintiff to
recover believe that she was chaste
and VirtuouS girl prior TO May l. and
IN the absence of proof chastity is pre-
Sumed- The alleged acts Of unchaStity
Of May 10 and II are not to be con
Sidered except as an aid to the deter
mination Of the paternity of the child
II the jury found that KearnS was the
father of the child the damages should
be heavier than if they found that
hearns had seduced her. but that
someone else was responsible for the
paternity of the child.
The previous aequittal of Hobbs on
the Matchmaking charge was not to be
taken as conclusive proof that he did
not write the letter the authorship of
which he denied.
If the jury found that the plaintiff
submitted herself 10 the defendant for
hire or the promise of money without
being mislead and deceived in such a
way as 10 nave created affection, then
the law would afford her no relief.
At 500 the jury retired to consider
the case and at noon returned q unani-
nous verdict for the defendant.
Ihere was but one opinion among the
Jurors. Who, after entering their room.
discussed the evidence for nearly two
hours and then took a ballot, resulting
as above stated.
