MORMON THEOCRACY.

NFHE increase of Mormons in the
United States, and the conse-
II quent growing power of the
church, will, at no distant time, prove
"a serious menace to our social and po-
litical institutions, unless the ana
conda is checked in it's poisonous
growth. 1t may be necessary to again
use military force to quell these re-
bellious people, as was done soon after
they settled in Utah and had attempt
ed to set up an independent govern
ment. Their recent election of po-
lygamist to represent them in con-
gress shows that the church and state
have not been divorced, as they claim,
and that polygamy is still live is
sue. Those who understand the Nor
mon character for deception are not
misled by this statement that "polyg-
amy has been abandoned" Mormons
are told by their priests to misrepre-
sent facts, and even to swear falsely,
IL necessary for the interests of their
church, or of any individual member.
This subterfuge was resorted to in Oh
der to gain statehood, and now the
same deception is used to get their
church agents admitted into congress.
Having control of the state govern
ment, it is more difficult to convict a
polygamist than under the territorial
federal court system, and the Gentle
minority in Utah did not understand
the Mormon scheme" until after tie
admission of the territory. The church
leaders will use, and are using, the
same diplomacy, or rather false state
ments, in sending polygamists to con-
gress. The Mormon policy is one of
a close union of church and state, with
the church as the supreme power. This
has been the history of the church in
all of it's earlier settlements-Ohio.
Missouri, Illinois, Utah and California.

words by which the members recognize
each other in any part of the world. A
purely religious denomination does not
require this. Such an organization, so
closely united, and composed mainly of
ignorant fanatics, is a menace to our
government. Fanaticism is the worst
feature, for 1t does not listen to reason,
and seeks to convert the world to its
own darkness, or exterminate the "un-
believers" This is the Mormon "code,"
and IL has not been changed since the
false prophet Joseph Smith, Jr., pub
lished the Mormon Bible" The lead
ers of the Church of the Latter Day
Saints have generally been designing
men, who left the states charged with
crimes, and naturally they hated our
government, and have so taught their
dupes. When they were driven from

longed beyond that Of any Judge Gordon has
had before him for a long time Wernimoat
Is accused OF the larceny OF a typewriter

pany during the month of December. lrah
b. Ehrhart, who was bound over to the dis
trict court for the same offense, will be
a witness for the state The state will have
number of witnesses, while the defense
has subpoenaed twenty-five.
Another complaint was filed Wednesday
against Ehrhart This time he is accused Of
assault and battery by Constable w. r.

not guilty OF any offerse. He says he simply
took his wifes Newfoundland dog away
from some children who had it hitched to a
car at Twenty fourth and Franklin streets.
The dog has been in possession of Consta-
Bile Adams ever since he attached some
of Ehrhart's household goods recently.
Judge Gordon bound Otto Heink over to
the district court Wednesday afternoon for
selling liquor without a license at Third and
Hickory streets. Heink was released on
$500 bonds.
Deputy County Attorney Helsley dismissed
the case against Joe Nachnebe and Dan
| Buckovis because he was satisfied the state
could not convict them of assauting Officer
Jorgensen with intent to commit great bodily
| injury on December H. since Judge Sla-
| baugh had held that the police officers on
that date had not been deputized The case
| against George Nachnebel was left on call

OUiNTETTE OF BAD" MEN
Police Gather In Five individuals =
who Are Expert Hands Mt Rob-
bing Freight Cars.

II the information is credible which the
police have gathered concerning five men
arrested in the last two days, one of the
most successful gangs of plunderers oper-
atinE in the middle west has been effectually
broken up.
Tuesday afternoon Frank Sharp and Harry
Vincent, two men employed as graders by
South Omaha contracting firm, were ar
rested while at work by Detectives Drum
my and Mitchell. At the police station
where they were locked up, their names
appeared on the criminal register as sus-
picious characters.
At Lincoln the same afternoon Chief De-
tective Malone of the Burlington railroad
police service swore out warrants for the
arrest of Jack Vincent and a man known
as Happy Jack" They were found and
taken into custody Tuesday night.
The real reason why these arrests were
made was not revealed by the police be-
cause there was still at large one man
who might take alarm and escape If he
learned of the capture of his pals. His
name is Charles Sharp. He was caught
last night by Sam Starcher, the sheriff of
sarpy county, and safely lodged in the Jail
at Papillion.
These Ave men compose n gang which the
daring robberies in the last five years that
up to this time have completely baffled de-
| lection.
Some of the robberies, according to the
story of the detectives, have now been
! traced directly to this gang. OF other SIM
liar thefts the men are only suspected, but
| the officers believe they can find evidences
of their guilt in a very short time now that
the men are arrested.
| The night of November 3 freight cars
standing on the Rock Island tracks were
broken open and robbed OF goods of the
value OF $500. Detective Malone says he
has proofs that Charles Sharp hauled the
property away in his wagon. He says that
the stuff was recovered recently, having
been found in Sharp's cellar. This was the
| first robbery in which the perpetrators were
! found out. The last occurred two nights
ago, when s125 worth of groceries were
taken from freight car on the Burlington
| tracks in South Omaha.
| The gang confined itself exclusively to
plundering freight cars, long experience
having enabled the members to work SO
systematically that the most daring rob-
berries were committed without immediate
detection The district in which the gang
worked was between Omaha and Lincoln
on the Burlington and Rock Island rail-
| roads.

UNDER MOTOR CAR WHEELS
Little Andrew Reed Seriously Injured
While Playing Upon the street
Car Tracks.

Andrew Reed, a 5-year-old colored boy,
was run over by motor at the corner of
Sixteenth and Dorcas streets yesterday and
injured so seriously that he may not live.
The childs escape from instant death was
miraculous. He was thrown directly in
front of a motor, but the wheel shield pre-
vented the wheels from passing over his
body.
When the accident occurred the boy was
playing tag with a companion, both being
on their way home from school. Reed was
running after his playmate AS they crossed
Sixteenth street at the corner of Dorcas
Reed gave up the chase and stopped in the
middle of the street, apparently not MOTTO
ing motor that was coming down the hill
toward him. The motorman saw the child
but not in time to check the speed of his
car. which struck the boy squarely, drag
ging him 100 feet before it could be brought
saw the accident. They ran out to be OF
assistance and the car crew attempted to
back the motor so that the child could be
picked up, but the wheel guard had become
fast in the little fellows clothing and Il
was necessary to hoist the truck with levers
before he could be released. He was car
ried by one OF the bystanders to his home
just across the street. where City Physician
Ralph was called to dress his injuries. Be
sides a deep cut on the head and badly
bruised shoulders there were symptoms OF
internal injuries. but the physician said
there were hopes of the childs recovery.

IL is understood that an attempt is to be
made by the local electric light company
to install a power plant, or in other words,
electric power for machinery win be fur
nished TO those who desire it at certain
sum per month. Considerable machinery is
operated here by gasoline engines and 1t is
thought that the owners of these machines
will be glad to change TO electric power.
In case 1t is decided to furnish power it
is more than likely that the elevator at
the Exchange building will be operated by
electricity instead of by hydraulic power
Should the proposed power be installed the
chances are that arrangements can be made
for an electric stamp canceling machine at
the new postofiice. The Postoffice depart
ment is ready and willing to install such
a machine here now, but the lack OF power
prevents 1t. The current furnished by the
motor company Is not even enough TO OPP
crate machine Of the kind proposed and
at the present time the local electric Fight
company does not furnish power during the
hours OF sunlight No provision has been
made for a dynamo in the new postotfice
building, but 1t is thought that IL the local
electrical company will furnish power to
operate a stamping machine there will be
no trouble about making contract with the
government.

however, devolve upon Postmaster Etter to

certain recommendations 80 the department

proposed for this city, but this amount
| could be furnished without difficulty by the
local electric light company. The same OBJ
ject might be attained by the use of stor-
age batteries but the cost would be greater
and it Is not supposed that the government
would be willing to nstafl a system OF eX-
! pensive storage batteries. The use OF the
proposed machine would tighten the labor
in the mailing department of the postot1ce
a great deal and Postmaster Etter will be
urged to take some steps in the matter in
order to assist the working force as much
as possible as the chances OF obtaining ad-
ditional help appear to be very sim at the
