Declaration Made That They Now
Control Seven States.

New York. Dec. I.-At meeting Of the
members of the West End PresbytssAn
Church 1t was decided to indorse and work
Tor the proposed amendment to the Conoti-
tuition 50 that polygamy may be made nm
possible in the United States.
The Reverend y. E Clemenson Of Logan,
Utah. was the principal speaker. He told
of poygamy as he had seen 1t ON his e1n
street, and how the Mormons were etili
living with many wives. contrary to their
pledges when Utah was admitted INTO
statehood. +
Hn thought the dangers in Idaho greafSf
than In Utah. as less attention fs paidr9o
Mormons there. and they live openly 9TH
their wives under the system they call sce-
lestial marriage" and which they deny 20
be polieamy.
Mrs W 2. White. who for some years has
been doing missionary and educational work
among the Mormons, told how her school
house had been attacked and wrecked BY q
mob.
She declared that the Mormon church had
political control of seven Western States.
Mrs. White also said that under their mar
velous system Of colonizing doubtful States
the Mormons before long would control
thirteen States. and it would then be I'M
possible to kill polygamy without civil Waf.

The last United States Mortality Eulletin
shows marked decrease in the number OF
deaths from Consumption
Ten years ago the official record showed
the annual number of deaths out of 10000
population to be 2i5. The recent Bulletin
shows that only 100 now annually fall VIC
tins to Consumption out of the same num-
ber of inhabitants.
In 1so the average life was 3l.I years.
Now it is So years.
Thess facts point unmistakably tn the
actual retreat of the grim monster. Tuber
culosis. which is responsible for the largest
number of deaths from various diseases
The honor of thus efTectually arrestiuS the
progress of this fatal malay rests with the
wonderful system of treatment which has
been reduced to an exact science for the
cure of Consumption and for the cure OF
Catarrh and other prevalent conditions
which pave the way for Cnnsurlptior-ths
