APOSTLE SNOOT OPPOSED
Salt Lake Ministers Protest Against His
Nomination for Senate.
SAY IT WOULD UNITE CHURCH AND STATE
alleged POIyEamy of His Associates in
Mormon COunsels IL Also Advanced
as Argument gains
His Election.

SALT LAKE CITY, Utah, Nov. 24.-The
ministerial alliance OF Salt lake today
adopted resolutions strongly opposing the
proposed election to the United States
senate of Reed Smoot, one of the twelve
apostles Of the Mormon church. A copy
OF the resolutions will be sent to every
ministerial alliance of prominence in the
country and also to President Roosevelt,
every congressman and United States sena-
tor and others prominent in political life.
The resolutions in part follow:
We protest against this endeavor to elect
Apostle Smoot to the United States senate
of Utah a union Of the church and the
state. The election of a man who holds
the highest office save one in the gift of
save. one In the gift of the people Of Utah
or the United States, would be a menace
to our civilized and religious beliefs. No
other church has dared TO attempt such an
ecclesiastical invasion of congress.
The election Of Apostle Reed Smoot for
the United States senate would virtually
be the election of the will of the Mormon
first presidency and twelve apostles to that
body As a consistent member Of the Nor
mon apostolate Smoot cannot make an inn
portant move without getting permission
or taking counsel OF the quorum of Mormon
high priests to which he belongs. BY vir-
tue of his apostolic vows he must act first
as a Mormon apostle and second or third
as a citizen OF Utah and a patriotic Amer
lCdn.
We protest because the majority OF the
Mormon apostolate, to which he belongs,
and With which he works In harmony, are
living in polygamous relations in violation
Of covenants made to the people of. the
United States, as we'll as in violation of
the. criminal statutes of Utah. The two
or three apostles who may be living monog-
arhous lives are obliged to defend the
righteousness of the p~olygamous system of
marriage and to wink at the lawbreaking
polygarnous relation OF their fellow apos-
ties. The Mormon apostolate stands as one
man before the community as directly or
indirectly encouraging. or conniVing at the
continuance OF p~olygamous relations
throughout the Mormon church. The vigor-
the EdmundsST3cSer law in this state ufte
would drive the president of the Mormon
church and the majority OF his apostles
into exile or throw them in prison within
twelve months and Apostle Smoot dare not
oppose such polygamous conditions.

Conductor Thinks He Sees Freight
Train Ahead and Jumps from
Rapidly Moving Passenger.

SAVANNAH, Mo-, Nov. 24.-(Special.)-
Conductor George Roe was badly hurt in
the Burlington yards at this place yester-
day morning shortly before daylight as the
result of an optical delusion. '
Conductor Roe was in charge Of a
south bound passenger train going to st.
Joseph. The morning was very foggy and
he was standing on the platform Of the
first passenger coach looking ahead. While
the train was Just entering the. yards he
thought he saw a freight train standing on
the track in front Of his train.
Fearing a collision, Roe jumped. He
had his nose broken, several gashes cut
about the head and face, and severe in
ternal injuries. 1t was discovered that
the freight was on the siding and there
was no occasion for the conductor being
frightened.
Roe was picked up in an unconscious con-
dition and taken to st. Joseph on the
train from which he jumped and placed
in the Ellsworth hospital, where he will be
for several weeks.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 24.-The War de-

corning the canteen question and the ef-
feet OF its abolition on the army.
The existence OF something like 1,400 sa-
looms in the Vicinity Of army posts is shown
by reports received at the department, Of
which are said to have opened since the
canteens we're closed.

has a post commander expressed an opinion
that the abolition of the sale of beer in

Attention is called to the reports from
army officers in the Philippines, ~particu-
larry that of Brigadier General Sanger. in
spector general of the division.
Men Drink Native Liquors.
After narrating the evil effects on the
human system OF the native liquors the
general explains that It was to remedy
these conditions that the post exchange,
at which light beer was sold, was insti-
tuted.
He believes that the exchange should
again be made a possibility by removing
all restrictions on the sale of beer and
light wines.
General Sanger shows from a careful
census of the S42 companies in the islands,
that in sixty companies every enlisted
man used vinous, malt or spurious liquors
at date Of enlistment, in 100 between 80
and 100 per cent, in ffty-eight companies
between so and 90 per cent, in twenty six
companies between 20 and so per cent, in
twenty companies between so and 70 per
cent, and opines that the number who
drink to excess will probably increase II
the men are obliged as now to resort to
native liquors.
He concludes:

RENEWED HOPE FOR IRELAND
VicerOy and Nationals Leader Both
e End of Troubles I'm
Sight.

LONDON, Nov. 24.-speeches which we're
delivered today by the earl Of Dudley, the
new lord lieutenant of Ireland, and John
Redmond, the Irish leader, have aroused
much comment as striking a note OF con-
c~iliation In the Irish question.
The earl Of Dudley. accompanied by the
countess, was making an .of1cial visit to
Belfast and in reply to the speeches deliv-
cred at his reception declared that he had
come to Ireland with the same spirit Of i'm
partial inquiry that animated Mr.. Chamber
lain In going to South Africa. Proceeding
to deal with the land question he suggested
that a round table conference Of landlords,
tenants and others interested in Ireland
should be held to endeavor to arrive at a
mutual understanding.
Whilst Lord Dudley was speaking at Bel
fast John Dillon was making an equally
oonoilliatory speech at the demonstration
Of the London branches Of the Irish league
at Bermondsey.
While all rumors Of Irish deals with the
government were untrue, he said, the
political situation had undergone an extra
ordinary and radical change, and he be-
lieved no English minister since the union
had held such a chance as the Irish secre-
tary, George Wyndham, now had. The
time had arrived when the eombatants we're
grown tired Of the contest and were taking
counsel as to whether It could not be
brought TO a satisfactory end.
For the first time in Irish history the
majority of landlords we're speaking words
Of good sense, Cancellation and reason. The
tenants we're united and a moderate and
quite limited use Of the imperial credit
would enable a settlement Of the land ques-
tion to be brought about. At the same time
that would not affect the aspirations Of the
Irish people for home rule and he warned
the government that II last sessions land
bill we're reintroduced the Irish members
uyould doht a. line nv line.

ANTELOPE VIBRATIONS.
The "Trek-BoI&I<en" of Early Days
in South Africa Was Neigh
borhoOd Calamity.

This is the name given by the Dutch
settlers of South Africa to the period
zeal migrations of the antelope from
the upper weld to the lower lands.
These removals are described by the
author of "Kloof and Karroo," says
Youths Companion.
In old days these trek-bokken were
a source of the greatest alarm and
danger to the colonist; quite as great,
in fact, as the locust flights. Countless
thousands of antelopes, impelled by
drought and the loss of their more Sc
Guided pastures, migrated from their
true nursery and headquarters into
more fertile districts in the interior
of the colony.
A trek-bokken might be witnessed
for whole day, and the weld would be
left denuded of every scrap Of pastur-
age. The immense numbers of the
antelopes literally swept everything
before them, and farmers frequently
lost whole iocks in consequence. From
sheer press of numbers the antelopes
cannot retreat. and enc has to be care
full to keep out of their way.
As the leading antelopes feed and
become satiated, they fall back and al
low those in the rear to come to the

LOST JURISDICTION.
The Fence Broke Down Under Judi.
cial Weight and Changed the
Laws Mandate.

Some of the supreme court justices have
an inexhaustible fund of humor, and they
frequently intersperse funny anecdotes
with their solemn deliberations, once they
are inside the sacred domain of their pri-
vate session chambers, affirms the Washing
ton Star. Justice Brewer is one of the most
inimitable story tellers among them, and
he told ore the other day that amused his
colleagues immensely. Out in Indiana, ne
said, there was justice of the peace who
owned farm. One line of his fence formed
the boundary of the states Of Indiana and
Ohio Like others in rural districts who
hold that office he had an abnormal appre-
citation of the responsibility of the office,
and never lost an opportunity to exercise
his prerogative of demanding that the peace
be preserved One day his son and his hired
man got to fghtingson a stretch of the farm
near the boundary line fence, and the justice
of the peace rushed out and mounted the
fence Then, with head cooked high and
the air of one who has but to command, he
shouted: 'In the name of the state of In
diana, | demand the preservation of the
peace!" just then the fence gave way un.
der his weight. and as he went down with
the fence topping over to the Ohio side he
shouted to his son: "Give him the mis-
chief, Jim; I've lost my Jurisdiction"
