POLYCAMY.
An Active Campaign is to Be
Waged Against Apostle
Reed Smoot by the
Ministerial Alliance.

Salt Lake, Dec. In an interview
today with the correspondent of the
A ssociated press, President Joseph
Smith of the Mormon church with
respect to polygamy, also the ecclesias-
tical position of Apostle Reed SmOot
whose candidacy for the United States
senate has resulted in an active cam
paign against him by the Ministerial
alliance ''The church does not de-
sire to enter into a controversy over
the subject said President Smith,
"but it is anxious that its own people
as we'll as the people of the country
should understand its position.
docs the Mormon church solemn
ize or permit plural marriage ?" Pres
ident Smith was asked. Certainly
not.'' he replied. 1.-The church does
not perform or sanction or authorize
marriage in any form that is contrary
to the law of the land. The assertion
that prominent Mormons practice
polygamy is evidently made to mis-
lead the public. Polygamy under the
law is the marriage of a husband or
wife while the legal husband or wife
is living and undivorced. There is
no such offense committed by the
sanction of the Mormon church. But
when the prohibition OF polygamy
was proclaimed by the president OF
tho Mormon church there were many
persons who had contracted plural
marriages. and that relation has been
continued in many instances because
the men in that position determined
not to Sabandon their families, but
care and provide for them. and edu-
cate and cherish their children.
''This is enormously construed as
practiciug 'polygamy.' and creates the

lmpre 'Slon that polygamouS marriages
are still permitted in and by the
church. 1T was ascertained by n
careful census in 1890 when President
Woodruff issued his manifesto against
further polygamous marriages, that
there were 2.451 such families belong
ing to the church of Jesus Christ and
Latter Day Saints in the, United
States. In Nav. 1902, complete and
thorough inquiry showed that tn" ori-
einal number in 1890 had been reduc-
ed 63 per cent, leaving then only
S97, the great majority of whom We're
of advanced age and many of them
have since departed this life. 1t is
evident that with no additions to this
total. but rapid and continual de-
crease, the number of polygamous
families will soon be reduced to
Zero"
President Smith was asked to de-
gne the position of Mr.. Smoot in the
church. his position as an apostle hay
ing been compared to that of cardi-
nal or archbishop in other churches.
''The two positions are not parallel. -.
President Smith said. ''An apostle of
70 or elder or bishop in the church OF
Jesus Christ of Latter day Saints is
usually engaged in some secular voca
tion or loboring in some capacity for
the office he holds in the priesthood.
so that he may act in that calling
when required He gives his services
gratuitously to the church, There are
instances of course where man $
whole time is taken up with church
duty, that he receives a remuneration
for, but as rule men holding such
positiosn III the priesthood are engag
ed in secular callings and are men of
affairs. Reed Smoot is a banker. the
manager of the largest manufacturing
concern in this state and is intere sted
directly in mining operations and
other temporal pursuits, He is
recognized as capable and enterpris-
ing citizen and his position in the
church need not interfere in any way
with his services to the state or the
nation in any political office if he
should be elected. 1t is true that he
has been put forward by the church
as candidate for public office. but he
has the same right that any other
American citizen enjoys to accept ali
office to which his fellow citizens may
elect him to occupy.
Mormon church officials have serv-
ed in congress for years and no objec-
ton has been raised ON that account
Every Mormon official has been one
holding the priesthood and that has
never interfered with his official du-
ties. The objection in the present
case is without substantial reason OF
foundation

Every one who cares for Hall Gaines

reason that Mr.. Hall Caine writes with

reigns. and the author is undisturbed

WORLDS OUTPUT or COAL

The forthcoming volume Of mineral
resources of the United States for 1901,

mates the worlds production of coal
that year at SGG. l6J.Ji1 short tons, says
a Washington special to the New York
Times.
The three great coal producing cOun-
tries of the world are the United
States, Great Britain and Germany.
| The output of these three combined
makes up Sl.li per cent of the worlds
total. Austria-Hungary comes fourth,
France is fifth, Belgium sixth and Rus
sia seventh. The last country. not
witlstanding its vast area, produces
only about Is per cent as much coal as
the United States. The three countries
which lead I'm the production of coal
are the three countries that lead in i'll
dUstrial development.
Prior To- 1899 Great Britain led among
the worlds coal producers, but during
1899, 1900 and 1901 the Unit O. States
has made such remarkable increases
in coal production. due principally to
tn unprecedented activity in the iron
