UP TO M'KINLEY.
Only He and Kaiser Can Offer Media
ton and the Latter Won't.

Paris, March 13.-1:05 p. ma repre-
sentative of the Associated Press has
secured from responsible mouthpiece
of the French government the following Z
expression of Frances attitude in the
matter of intervention in the Anglo
Transvaal war, which, it is said, has
been solicited by President Kruger. The
official said:
We believe it is true the Transvaal
their Intervention, though up TO this
morning President Kruger'S message
has not reached US. AS far as France
is concerned she certainly will not take
the initiative in Offering England medi-
alton, nor will Russia, for the dual al
lance is naturally working together in
this question. We feel that in the pres
ent excited state of public feeling in
England and especially as regards our
selves, any step taken by the French
government would defeat it's own OBJ
ject and instead of opening a way to
honorable peace would act as oil on
flames and probably only create fresh
complications. We consider that over
lures for mediation can emanate from
some power whose cordial relations
with England prevents such a Sugges-
tion being construed as an unfriendly
act The emperor of Germany, for in
stance, might take the initiative, or
President Mckinley without fear of
creating the friction which stands in
the way of any such action on our
part, and after this is done, full re-
lance can be placed on the unqualified
support of France and Russia whose
only desire is to see the end of the
their good offices in bringing about this
end

he has not had the time to investigate
these medicines to see which are meri-
torlous and which are not For this
reason he has refused all, in order that
fraud might not creep in or an injus-
t1ce done a good article.
With regard to corset advertising,
none has been accepted. Mr.. Sheldon
did this simply because he did not want
to do anything that might be question:
ed. He also has doubts about a corset
being proper wearing apparel. All of
that class of advertising, including
styles of underwear, has been barred
out.
Mr.. Sheldon has applications for
space for a great many books and 9TH
er publications. Whenever possible he
sent for a copy of the book in order that
he might examine it before accepting
the advertisement. He felt that to ad-
vertise a book was in a measure en-
dOrSing it. He did this particularly
vocating some special reform, and if
he could not endorse it, he refused the
advertisement.
Theatrical advertising of all kinds
has been barred, although it might be
that Mr.. Sheldon would mention some
plays if he had time to investigate
them and determine their merits, but as
he cannot he has excluded them all.

it was a fair statement, and he thought

NEARING THE END.
Kentucky Legislature Will Adj
journ Tonight Sine Die.

Frankfort, KY, March 13.-The Ken
tuck legislature will adjourn sine die
before midnight. Before the sessions
met this morning, there was a strong
inclination shown by members of both
houses to expedite matters as much as
possible and secure final adjournment
sometime this afternoon. Beyond Sen
ator Triplett's bill appropriating $780,,
000 for the reorganization of the militia
under Governor Beckham there IS little
legislation of Importance pending, and
Democratic members of the house ex-
pressed confidence of passing this with
out trouble. Apparently no apprehen-
sion of further trouble for the present,
at least, exists among members of eth
er party Republican Lieutenant Gov
ernor John Marshall held consultations
during the morning with Democratic
Adjutant General Castleman and sew
eral Democratic members of the legis-
lature. The general situation was dis-
cussed.

Says Sheldon Edition Is Higher Glass
Than Ever Before Published.

F. Q. Popenoe, president of the To-
peka Capital company who was the
originator of the proposition to turn the
Capital over to Mr.. Sheldon for a week.
said:
1.-THE paper made by Mr. Sheldon last
night is of a higher character and class
than before published anywhere or at
morning into the homes of the people
of the United States would solve within
the next ten years practically all of
the moral questions now confronting
us. It would be better than a bath and
a complete change of linen every morn
ing.
in my judgment the mass of people
would read such a paper if it was ably
edited. 1t would take more ability
however, to make this kind of a paper
interesting than than to make a read

Latin.Amsrican and Pan-Amerioan.
The press of the various countries Of
Latin-America show a cordial interest
in the Pan-American Exposition. 1t is
recognized that their cooperation Is es-
sential to the end that the Exposition
may Adequately represent the progress
Of all the states and countries Of this
hemisphere. As a rule the editors of
newspapers and other publications In
the countries to the south Of the United
States display a very favorable atti-
tuds toward the enterprise. B. B. Lo-
pez, editor and proprietor Of La Core
spondencia de Porto Rico, has become
20 enthusiastic over the Exposition
that he writes to the Press Department
that he il about to come to Buffalo to
sse for himself the progress made in
the development of the Exposition. He
will be accompanied by his family.
Many other editors of the Latin-Amsri-
can press have also announced their in
tention to attend the Exposition, and
inquiries are pouring in from these
countries regarding steamboat and rail-
road routes. Many editors and CORE
spondents from Central and South
American countries have already Wis
tied the Exposition grounds.

on arrival In the city was to be driven
to the grounds of the Exposition. The
remark quoted above was addressed to
Chairman John N. Scatcherd of the
executive committee Of the Exposition,
who had told Senator Depew Of the
progress made in the building Of the
Exposition when they had met in Eu-
rope last summer. Mr.. Scatcherd had
dwelt long and eloquently upon the
success which had attended the organi-
cation and construction Of the Exposi-
ton, and "Our Chauncey's" expecta-
tions were high. Nevertheless anttci-
pations are not equal to realization.
Looking upon the scene before him
from the sight Of the grand Triumphal
Bridge, he saw to his right the stately
proportions of the United States Gov
ernment buildings, to the left, across
the spacious Esplanade, the charming
architectural effects Of the Graphic
Arts, Horticultural and Mines build
ings, while the vast Machinery and
Transportation building, now almost
complete, was seen in the background
to the left. Opposite 1t, across the
Court of Fountains, was the Manufac-
lures and Liberal Arts building, and
the Electric Tower could be seen ris-
ing skyward in the distance at the far
end Of the vast court, with the towers
and minarets of other buildings out
lined against the horizon. AS Mr.. De-
pew took in this impressive scene the
exclamation burst from bis lips that
the half had not been told.
Later in the day the popular orator
addressed an audience which filed to
overnowing Buffalo's great Convention
hall. In the opening lines Of his speech
the speaker declared: "Six weeks ago
was at the Universal Exposition at
Paris. Today went through the
grounds where your Pan-American Ex-
position is to be held. l felt that Buf-
falo is going to do at least twice as
well as Paris"

men are planning elaborately to well
come the members of the order to Buff
falo next year. The Supreme Lodge
has appropriated $1,000 and the State
Lodge $1,000 more to be used for the
erection and furnishing Of fine head
quarters building at the Pan-American
Exposition. The Supreme Lodge will
meet In Buffalo next year. The build
ing is 4 handsome pavilion, with rooms
for rest, and the upper floor great
balcony. with easy chairs, for all men,

DEFAMATION OF rue DEAD.


In Munseys Magazine for June APP
peared a most yrulent attack on the
leaders OF the Mormon Church, which
we have already noticed as TO many
particulars. There Is one paragraph
which calls for some further remarks
It Is In relation 70 the parents Of the
Prophet Joseph smith The writer c.
q. Goodwin, editor OF the Salt Lake
Tribune. not content with making
vicious aspersions on the character Of
the martyred Prophet had this to say
in regard to his dead father and mo-

RELIGIOUS PROGRESS.

The Deseret News was started on the
18th Of June. 1850, under the auspices
Of the Church Of Jesus Christ OF Lat
,er.day Saints. It's motto was, Truth
and Liberty" It has been for tho
half century that has passed. and WIN
be in future. the official organ of that
Church. and devoted TO the principles
expressed IN that motto. It has taken
an important part IN the PRONUNCIATION
Of the doctrines Of the Church both by
editorial articles and the publication
Of dlscourses delivered by leading El-
ders. II has therefore been one of the
agencies by which important changes
in religious thought have been effected
in Chrlstendom.
Fifty years ago the Bible was wore
shipped by the vast majority OF pro-
Tossing Christians. and belief in its
verbal inspiration. from I'D to lla'
was insisted upon as essential. Not
only were the sayings Of the prophets
OF the old Testament, and the utter
ances OF the Apostles Of the New con-
sldered 10 be the very words OF God
but the historical, genealogical and al.
legorical portions We're regarded In the
same light. The Latter-day Saints
were denounced as disbelIeyers IN the
sacred volume. because they took a
rational view Of the books Il contains,
accepting 1t $50 far az Il Is translated

outside as well as inside OF that book,
and "all that lie does now reveal %
with the expectation, that he win
yet reveal many important things
concerning the Kingdom Of God and
the salvation OF mankind.
Today AN religious denominations
are discussing the authenticity OF the
books Of the Bible New versions Of
the scriptures have been published
Learned diyines dispute with each
other as 70 the authority Of different
passages. and the fact that the Book
Of books does not contain the entire
word OF God. is acknowledged boy many
thousands OF investigators, while the
possibility Of further inspiration is bee
ginning TO impress the minds %
thoughtful men and women.
Fifty years ago 20 was deemed de-
serving OF denunclaton TO doubt the
