NO ROOM FOR MORMONS.

NO ROOM FOX MORMONS.
We cannot see that there is any
thing in the Roberts case to make
such fuss about in Congress. 1t
seems that there is great fear Of some
future catastrophe, if the Roberts case
is handled one way or the other. The |
thing is plain as the nose on mans
face, and there is no sense in any
delay, and prompt action should be
taken. This is the way the thing
| looks to US:
Is Roberts polygamist? Itseems
that evidence sufficient hGs been ad-
duced to convince the committee,
that such is the case. Is there law
against polygamy? There surely Is.
Then has Congress q right to deny
man q seat in it's body who lives in
open violation Of the laws Of the
country in which he lives? Ii il has
not such power it most assuredly
ought to have.
The minority Of the committee on
the Roberts case agree with the ma
ior!ty in 50 far as that Roberts, being
q polygamist, should not be allowed
to remain in his seat in Congress, but
they make the silly proposition thai
he be sworn in, and then kicked out.
This is Tommy rot, If he is 10 be
sworn i'm what are you going to kick
him out for? For being n polyga-
mist, oh well, did you not know he
was polygamist before you swore
him in? Can you turn him out once
he gets IN, It is not likely that man
can be fired from his seat, except fox
conduct unbccOming u member Of
the body. He will have the biggest
kind of argument in favor OF holGirg
!!is seat IL he is once sworn in. The
| claim by the minority that he was
5 legally elected and holds prop I
| papers to entitle him to his seat is
= no good II our law against po!ySa-
i my means anything it means that
I Roberts was elected illegally, beins
c illegal or account Of his living il
!: daily violation Of the laws Of The
= country. The time to correct th'
5 fault is as soon as it is made. known
farther. The country demands thar
Congress lefuse to admit Roberts
and thoy want no slip-shod tom-fool
cry of swearing him in and ther
swearing him out. II lis n matter 0
taking the bui by the horns, vii;
Just take him by the horns and brcai
his neck by his horns ii necessary tt
prevent Roberts disgracing the halls
. Of congress by being seated therein
As it now stands Roberts seems t.
10 be the least concerned of all par
ties interested, and even refuses tC
testify, virtually daring Congress tc
refuse him his seat. 1t ought tt
take not more than twenty minute:
to fire him back on his road to Ais
plural better half. We need no such
men in the highest council halls o.
our country TO make laws for Us !:
obey, out with him, lock, stock ana
barrel.
Perhaps some Of the high cock a
forums may think that more invcsti
cations might result, aud things
might turn up that would make il
anything but pleasant for others be-
sides Roberts. Sometimes people who
in glass houses are n little careful
how they throw stones, for fact.

THE STATE LEGISLATURE,
Clippings AMI Comments.

The Wide Tire bill passed and made
applicable to every county in the State.
1t applies only to Heavy vehicles. The
measure was earnestly debated, amended
aud.reamended. Many Senators expressed
their opinions and the strongest speeches
made for the bill were by senators In
whose counties wide tires are used and
whose opinions are based on experience.
We think this is one Of the best measures
ever passed by our lawmakers, and we
believe that our people will soon see the
advantages Of the wide tire when their
use becOmbe general. and will wonder
why it had not bsen done long ago. We
give the bill as adopted in another col

ON THE SELECT LIST.
The Tribune Selected AS The Best
Paper In stevens County.

For the benefit of its patrons the
10th Century Press Clipping Bureau
of Chicago issues a''Newspaper Blue
Book" containing a select list of the
best newspapers of the United States
The comparison hinges upon the
scope of the news columns and the
quality and variety of special articles
and editorials. on this basis, The
TRIBUNE is pleased to announce to our
many friends in this county that this
paper has been selected by news
paper experts as the best exponent of
newspaper excellence in this county.
Though not the Oldest of the press
clipping bureaus, The 10th Century
Bureau has no doubt attained the
acme of excellence in this new de-
velopment in the mercantile world :.
The leading newspapers from ali over
the country are clipped for business
items, bank reports, locations wanted
or industries wanted, editorial arti-
cles, special articles. personals, poll
tics, material for essays and incidents
mentioned in the local columns of
newspapers which would be of value
to the novelist. In fact the scope of
the articles clipped is as extensive as
the desires of people.
Taking this broad outlook upon
the field of a newspaper, the bureau
selected The TRIBUNE as the best ex-
ponent of all that should go to make
up newspaper that there is in
Stevens county.

Notice Served To Have The Drain
Across Lumber Yard Stopped.
Mayor Bevans this week received
notice from the attorney of the FL. L.
Jenkins Lumber Co. that the COM
pany claimed $1,000 damages for the
draining of sewerage across their
lumber yard, and served notice tkat
the matter must be adjusted before
the 18th inst. or action would be COM
menced for the amount of the dam
ages.
Quite an area is at present drained
by an old sewer that ~uns down Fifth
street to the Interstate elevator and
thence by ditch diagonally across
he tract toward the direction of the
old lake. The railroad company put
in cuIvert some years ago, but the
partial filing of the ditch across the
lumber yard has been the source Of
the trouble. The village, however,
offered to cover the ditch through the
yard if the company would furnish
the lumber. This the company re-
fused to do but preferred to com
mence action. The authorities have
decided to test the matter in the
courts if necessary.
