ANOTHER SENSATION.

Salt Lake City has another sensation
A well known teller of bank and a
member OF the city council has iur-
nished II, Suddenly he disappeared
and O host Of people went to search ior
him. when II became known that ms
accounts were in bad shape As
suddenly he returned, and admitted
that he was defaulter In the sum OF
several thousand dollars. Mr.. Robert
son has for years enjoyed the conn
aence OF his employers, and the pub
lie. and the revelation now made Is Il
shock 10 all
It appears from reports publisheu
that the gentleman has been gampihs
good deal and lost money nearly an
the time. The aggregate losses OF MN
self ard other employees Of the bank are
snId Is amount to no less than SlVO'VVV
during the three years. Drinking 100
has been INDUCED in, often 70 excess
II these are facts. no other explanation
of the fall IL needed. No man can drink
and gamble without finally meeting
ruin and disgrace.
Mr.. Rohertson's case cannot ran al
this time, to carry an Impressive ies-
son to the public. For some time past
The people have demanded that the
pledges made before the last election
be kept-that gambling be suppressed
ana the liquor traffic confined to lhe
limits prescribed by law. The demand
has received but scanty consideration
al the hands OF the ci;y's trusted sery-
ants. A demonstration Of the conse-
ouences Of the evils referred to mas
now been given, and If the officers stu
Insist that they are powerless, the peo-
Die may feel called upon to take action
IL is evident that as long as the tenn
ples of sin are suffered to keep their
halls open, there will be victims II Is

FALSE STORIES

Somebody Is lndustriously circulate
Ing all kinds OF false stories about the
'Mormons.' There Is evidently pur-
pose in It, but the tales that have come
70 our notice are so clumslly construct
ed as 10 deceive none but the ignorant
and prejudiced,
One story comes from Arizona to the
Brooklyn Eagle II Is to the effect that
there is a great hegira from certain
parts Of Arizona to Mexico, and the
explanation, Of course, is that the
'Mormons" go there In order 10 take
more wives" which is said to be per-
mitted in our nelghbor republic to the
south.
That Is a sample Of the information
that is still sent out about the Nor
Mons There is, as far as We know
not word of truth In It. There Is no
general hegira Of Saints from any
place, that we know or Members Of
the Church, in common with other
American citizens settle wherever they
find an opportunity Of doing so, prefer
ring, OF course, such neighborhoods
where they may enjoy the fellowship
Of their brethren and the advantages
Of divine worship according to their
faith. There is nothing more strange
In this than in the fact that Baptists,
Presbyterlans, Methodlsts, and others
are constantly moving from one locality
to another, In search Of desirable places
OF settlement, The statement that
Arizona Saints go to Mexico for any
special and sinister purpose. Is pre-
sumably dictated by malice The
Mexican laws do not permit polygamy,
II we are rightly Informed. And the
"Mormons" in Mexico as all over the
world, are first OF all loyal, law-abid-
ing citizens The good repute they
have gained in Mexico, Notwithstanding
all attempts to turn the government
against them by false rumors, is proof
Of their loyalty and morality

ianciful 7tories as there told may OBJ
tain credeace among a certain class OF
people II Is not so very many year,
ago since old ladies' used to ten thcli
children and grand children to be good
lest the Turk would come ana take
them and put them up o. 1rrels fol
food. Equally startling tales were told
about Free Masons, and 10 this day
IN many enlightened countries the Jew,
are said TO catch Christian childrer
and use their blood for sacrifclal rites
In the early ages It was said. and ex
tonslyely believed that part Of tn,
Christian religion was to eat the hesl
OF children and drink their blood Il
an ages and an countries, there hav
been found people capable Of believing
the most impossible stories about thel
fellow-men. And for that reason It !
to be expected that fables about tn
"Mormons,' and especially about thei
Temple service. Will find believer.
They are none the less false. And O.
time. the falsehood will fade away a
the morning fog before the rays q

only truth remains, and that is tn
reason why "Mormonism' grows an
expands. notwithstanding an assault
upon it by those who have no regar

prLrprNos TO BE pARDoNED.

On the Fourth OF July, that day sa-
cred 10 all Americana all political prs
oncrs in the Philippines are to be par
doned. The pardon win include Aguin-
aldo. Mablni and others. 1t is wise a
patriotic, polite thing to do. Peace Is
said 10 reign throughout the Islands
and civil government has been, or Is
being. established in all the provinces.
This all means that the natives nave
accepted American rule. To assume
that there Is no discomfort in the ISL
ands, that there are no latent hopes
no sleeping ambitions, would be tolly
in the extreme. They always exist
among a conquered people.
But this pardon should have a bene-
fclal effect upon the Filipinos and open
their eyes to the true nature OF Ameri-
can rule and all that It means. For
them 1t means peace. prosperity, secur-
ity of person and property and protee-
ton against foreign aggression. All
this they will have in greater measure
and greater certainty than they would
were they left to themselves Under the
sway and guidance Of the American
government the Fillpinos viii probably
make more progress along the lines OF
civilization than they otherwise would.
At all events for the present and long
time to come their fortunes are linked
with those OF nation that VIII play an
important part in the development OF
the Orient. Among nations the great
changes OF the immediate future win be
IN China and adjacent lands and ISL
ands. The linking Of the Philippines TO
the United States means that those ISL
ands viii have their part to play, be It
what Il may.
This granting OF pardon will be a
gracious act and II could be granted on
no more suspicious day than lnde-
pendence day. II should aid IN bringing
TO the Filipino people measure OF the
blessings that have come TO the Amer
lean people. They should see in 1t q
purpose 20 treat them fairly and honest
Is. TO upift them and not TO degrade
them. to III them for self-goveFnmen'

ceive Il in the same spirit in which 1t Il

the many kindly and sympathetic ex-

dent, the English flag fluttered at half

men go In and open up their bottles OBJ
tanned from the dispensary. OF course,
the dispensary only sells bottled goods,
and bottles cannot be opened on the
premises, but I am told the dispenser
keeps a very large refrigerator in which
beer is kept on ice, and that one may buy
a bottle of ice-cold beer, taking it next
door or in the nearest cotton warehouse
for consumption.
During the month of March $4,000 bot
ties of liquors and beer were passed over
the counters of the dispensary. As there
are but 5000 people, all told, In Tusca-
loosa, this would seem to mean that each
man, woman and child In this town con-
sumed three bottles of something having
a fiery tendency about it. Of course, there
are those here who didn't get bottle.
Therefore there must be some who got
more than three bottles.
Speaking of the dispensary, Mayor Will
liam G. Cochrane is very enthusiastic
over the additional amount of revenue
which this liquor shop will bring to The
city. Indeed, he is figuring on $4,000 a
year, and he is now advocating scheme
