The position taken by many that
polygamy is dead is untrue. 1t is still
practiced by many prominent people
IN the church, and is generally ac-
cepted by the Mormon people as true
doctrine. President Partridge con-
cedes it to be his belief that God is a
polygamous being, loving a female
companion. and that Christ was also
polygamist. The polygamous 'prin-
clple' enters into the very warp and
woof of his religious convictions. I'm
questionably, all the older Mormon
leaders share these convictions with
him, the result of the emphatic and
lncessant teachings of the last fifty
years. and it is very curious ques-
tion whether with such men polygamv

lily seeking to re-establish its power is
evident from many facts. 1t was
charged and apparently proved at the
close of recent session of the legisla-
ture that committee of the church
had been appointed to supervise pro-
posed laws in the interest of the
church, and the secret influence over
its members in the legislature pre-
vented the passage of such laws as
would be obnoxious, and that proposed
laws were defeated by their interest.
Recently the papers have published
the statement that the president Will
ford Woodruff, has, by the authority
OF God, instructed Mormons to vote as
Mormons. So marked is the drift that
an intelligent observer of public af-
fairs now living in Utah hiss recently
said that in his opinion statehood has
greatly retarded progress in Utah"

WAR AGAINST THE SHELTERS,
Mine Owners of the West will Organize TO
Protect Their interests.

Leadville, Colo, Nov. 15.-Great in,
terest is manifested here in the re.
ported formation of smelter trust tc
regulate the price of smelling ores,
etc. One OF the largest mine manag,
ers of the district said:
"The object of this smelter meeting
is known to the mine owners and
mine managers and, as result, there
is prospect of a bitter fight, with the
smelters arrayed on one side and the
other.
This fight was virtually started
last Wednesday night, at meeting OF
mine owners and mine managers OF
the camp. They thoroughly discussed
the question and decided to organize
an association to protect their own
interests against the smelters.
In order to show what the smelters
intended to do, one of the mine man
ayers stated that he had been request
ed by smelter to enter into CON
tract for the sale of his ore before the
trust went into effect.
AT this meeting in Leadville, we
decided that a circular should be got
ten up, to be sent to all the mine own
ers of the west. This circular sets
forth the object of the association, and
also calls for suggestions as to the
time for holding a meeting of all the
mine owners.
The mine managers insist that in
stead of allowing the smelters to regu-
late the price, that they ought to do
1t themselves. They also object to the
smelters getting the benefit of the low
rates and the rebates from the rail-
roads, which, it is claimed, they are
now receiving.
There is certainly bitter fight in
sight

Next Reiehstag win be Controlled by the

Berlin, Nov. 1.-THE result of the
municipal elections at Yves tpreignitz

schulz, the radical candidate, has been
elected by vote of 7,4s1 against 5,999

Is likely to happen at the general

Two ballots were taken. On the first
Herr Saldern received 5,043 votes; Herr
Schulz BIAS, while the socialists and
anti-semite candidates received respec-
lively 2,ol5 and 400 votes. On the
second ballot the socialists seem to
nave gone over in body to the radi
Gals.
The anti-semites declare they will
pursue the same tactics in all the
Brandenb burg constituencies, while the
radical organs exultingly declare that
the next reichstag will be the most
radical Germany has ever seen. 1t
looks now as though the prediction
would be filed.

IDAHO POPULIST SPLIT.
Course of the Party Organ Disapproved

Boise. Ida, Nov. 15.-The commo.

money and middle-of-the-road pro-
nunciamento of the Boise Sentinel,
the leading organ of that party, con
tinues undated. Great influence is
brought to bear to secure modifica-
tion of the Sentinel's policy. Congress-
man James Gum, formerly editor of
the Sentinel, is known to oppose the
policy outlined by the Sentinel, and it
is said he expressed himself on the
subject in no uncertain terms Some
say the Sentinel's middle-of- -the-road
declaration is merely bluff at the
Democrats, with whom the Populists,
they maintain, will continue to
coalesce if the nomination for gov
ernor is given to the Populists next
year.
Great interest is manifested and the
final result cannot be even coniect-
ured.

In the committee on bird protection
read by Chairman William butcher of
New York. He prefaced the report
with this statement:
The continued use of feathers and
BIRDS on women's hats is, | think. due
to an unwillingness on their parts To
assume individual responsibility. most
women know the cruelty entailed in
obtaining the plumes that Dram ent
their hats, but they excused themselves
on the ground that st was not commit
ted for me personally; it would have
happened anyhow"
Reports from western states were
discouraging in that they told that the
use of aigrettes and feathers on hats
was more popular this year than ever
before.

NEW LEASE OF LIFE,
w. II. Il. Durrant Not to be Executed TN
Next Year.

San Francisco, Nov. 14.-In view OF
the fact that the supreme court. which
is now in session at Sacramento. will
ADJOURN on Tuesday next until the
second Monday in January, it is not
considered probable that w. H. T..
Durrant, the condemned murderer of
Miss Blanche Lamont and Miss Min
ME Williams, will expiate the crime
Tor which he was sentenced to be
hanged in December, 1895, during the
current year. In the ordinary course
OF events, the matter cannot come up
Tor nearing upon the points involved
In the order granting the certificate of
probable cause, to which the murderer
owes his second lease of life, until tho
middle of January, even though tho
forwarding of the remittitur from the
supreme court of the United States be
expedited. After the case has been
decided, another 30 days, at least,
must intervene before the remittitur
from the state supreme court can
demned man be resenteuced the Sec
ond time. This course would not al
low the execution to take place before
the latter part of February or the be-
ginning of March next. 1t is possible
that the attorney general may apply
to the supreme court to advance the
case and hear it as special case: but
this action is so unusual that few at
torneys entertain the suggestion as
likely to be accomplished.
Meantime Durrant has been removed
from the condemned cell and returned
to his old cell, No. 21, in murderer's
row, San Quentin, where he will re-
main until the supreme court passes
upon the question raised by his at
torneys.

OUR COAST DEFENSE.
General Miles Report Approved by tho
Secretary OF War.

Washington, Nov 10. l3.-Secretary AL
ger has approved the estimates for the
coast defense work submitted by Gen-
eral Miles, and they win be submitted
to Chairman Cannon of the house COM
mittee on appropriations some days be-
fore the opening of the session.
In his report to the secretary, Gen.
eral Miles makes no reference 10 possi'
BILE complications with Spain, but says,
Although the general desire of our
people is to maintain condition OF
peace with all nations, and the policy
of the government is one of good will
and peaceful relations with all others,
yet nothing could be more injudicious
than to remain in condition of inse-
curity and permit the lives of millions
and the accumulated wealth of many
generations to be destroyed or endan-
gered by an foreign power with which
we are liable to come in contact, and
the general plan of defense which has
been adopted by the government
should be steadily pursued until the
nation is in condition of security and
safety, which due regard for self
preservation would demand"
In the list of appropriations to be
made for harbor defense, submitted
by General Miles, the Pacific coast is
itemized as follows:

he had established an Alaskan mis-

that the latter was now ministerinQ

him to continue the work in Alaska.
The request was referred to a special

appropriation for the Chinese mission
in California be increased from 81, 200

The following appropriations were

TRAGEDY AT CARSON.
Sharies Jones, United States Attorney for
Nevada, Murdered

Carson, New, Nov 1O.-The entire
state has been startled and shocked al
the murder OF Charles A. Jones, e. s.
district attorney, by Julian Guinan.
the l6-year-old son of a weIl.known
local physician.
Jones death was caused by bullet
wound in the head, and for a time
mystery surrounded every circum-
stance connected with the killing At
hrst 1t was supposed Jones had com.
mitted suicide, but later young Guinan
surrendered himself and confessed to
the killing.
The statement of the youth, who is
now in jail. is to the effect that imme-
diately prior to the shooting he had
observed his sister talking to Jones
with whom his father had forbidden
association. when he saw DR.. Guinap
approaching. Believing trouble to be
inevitable when the two men should
meet, the boy procured a Winchester
rifle and stationed himself At n window
for the purpose, as he says, of protect
ing his father.
Ulpn encountering Jones, DR.. Gui-
nan said to him; "This is the last
time ! shall ever warn you against
keeping company with my daughter
Jones jeered at the doctor. in com
ment upon this warning, and slipped
his hand into his right hand pocket.
Julian states that, having often heard
his father threaten to kill Jones. and
having been informed that the district
attorney always carried a revolver.
which, he believed, from Jones mo-
ton, was about to be drawn. the boy
fired at Jones in anticipation of an at
tack upon his father.
Jones fell forward dead, the bullet
from the rife having entered above his
right eye and passed out at the neck.
behind Miss Guinan. seeing Jones
fall, threw herself upon him and EN-
braced the dead body.
Jones was about 33 years old. was
married, and left widow and child,
al his home in Reno, whence he came
this morning on official business He
was necessarily in Carson much of the
time, and while here his attentions to
Miss Guinan occasioned so much talk
that DIR. Guinan had been aggravated
into making threats against Jones,
which indirectly led to the murder by
the doctors son.
Jones served as district attorney dur
ing one of the most stormy criminal
sessions held in the United States
court in Nevada-the prosecution and
conviction of those concerned in the
robberies at the United States mint.
