WAS THERE A DEALT

It has not been so many years since
the Republican party was waglng a Bit
ter fight against polygamy then prac-
ticed by the Mormors. on Wednesday
in the Senate, Mr. Rawlns, Democratic
Senator from UtaA. had read extracts
from Salt Lake and Washington ia ers,
in which it was a serted that the Repub-
Lean party had made a bargain with the
Mormon Church leaders to elect a Re
publican to the Uni ed States Senate. on
his own responsibility Senator Rawlins
said:
1T is freely charged-and it is not de-
nled-that certain representatives of the
Republican party, less than a year ago,
went into that state and ma le a conn act
with the leaders Of the Mormon Church
by which they were assured that they
might hnd immuuiy for the practice OF
polygamy-that they need no longer fear
the passage Of q resolution asking for
corst tuti- nal amer dmeut against p lyga-
my-if they would uphold the dominant
administration"
on Wednesday Thomas Kearns was
elected United States senator from Utah.
1t was Mr. Kearns' election which called
forth the remarks Of Senator Rawlns.
Can it be true that Republican leaders
have made deal with Mormons, promis-
ing them assistance in rc-establ shlng
polyeamy. provided the Mormon Church
will throw its influence to the Repubn-
cans in political contests in Utah and the
territories in which there Is a large Nor
mon population? 1t is hard to believe
any such thing, and yet Senator Rawlins
would hardly have made such sensat onal
scene in the Senate chamber If he had
not thought there was good ground for
the charge.
1t is worthy of notice that the Republi-
can senators listened to him impatiently.
They did not seem anxious to have cur
rency given to the charge; neither did
they intimate that the charge would be
Investigated before the newly elected
Utah Senator would be admitted to
seat in the Senate.
Last fall the Republicans were very
anx Gus regarding the outcome Of the
presidential campaign. 1t may be that
there was an understanding then of
some sort between Mormon leaders and
some OF the republican campaign man
ayers But was there an understanding
that the influence of the r pub lean
party would be exerted to protect Nor
mons If the practice of polygamy We're re-
sumed? That il a question which will
continue to be asked until it is satisfac-
torily answered.
There is a belief that the Mormons are
looking forward to the time when they
will be as free to practice polygamy as
they were when they settled in Utah.
They are making every possible effort to
strengthen Mormonism. Their mi sion
aries are scattered all over this country
making converts, and they have mission
aries in most of the countries of Europe.
The converts are induced to 80 to Utah.
1t is not desired by the Mormon Church
that they remain in the localities in which
they We're born and reared.
II It should turn out on investigation
that the Republican party has entered in
TO an alliance with the Mormon Church
for the purpose of Strengthening itself,
its lease of power would no doubt end
with the Mckinley administration.

West Point is not the only place in the
country where hazing is practced. The

Indulge in it. and in a manner more bru-
tai than most college boys. The other
day they hazed one Of their teachers.
Miss Lewelling, daughter of the for
mer Governor Of that name. Among other
things, they burned across her forehead
with nitric acid the initials of a Greek

dishgured for life. The girls were prob
ably "only in fun" but the result to Miss
Lewelling is the same as If they had been

words, Hobson has been made a victim

An International craftsmanship contest
is being arranged to take place next Sep
TENDER at Sea Grit, y. J. 1t is pro-
posed to have teams from Great Britain.
Canada, Germany and France, and prob
ably other foreign countries in the con
test. Under the rules all teams must
shoot with their national military arm
without alteration, using government am
munition in original packages as distrib-
uted on the battlefield Such a match
would prove very interesting. II is to be
regretted that some of the best military
marksmen IN the United States, residents
of this state and city will not be in the
match. Savannah marksmen have on sew
eral occasions demonstrated, on the Sea
Girt range, that they are among the fin
est shots in the country, if indeed they
are not the very best But an injustice
to the Georgians al Sea Girt some time
ago has forced them to resolve that they
will shoot no more on that range under
the auspices of the New Jersey associa-
ton.

Queen Victoria was a large owner of

that her life was insured for considera-
