 Charges that the Mormon Church ofi- cials are exerting their ecIesiastical au- thority in the municipal government of this city are likely to lead to an open fight between the Mormons and Gentiies at the coming municipal election
 A Republican Mormon Mayor And his appointees have been constantly op- posed in recent months by hostile ma jorfty in the City Council. It is composed Of Morrnons who call themselves both Democrats and Republicans. but the charge is openly made that this majority takes it's orders directly from the office of the First Presidency of the dominant church. There is a strong sentiment in favor of return to the conditions of fifteen years ago. when there was no pre- tense of division on National party lines. but the people were divided into the Peo- ple's. or Mormon. party, and the Liberal, or Gentle. party.
 0ttensibly the last municipal election was a straight contest between the Re- publicans and the Democrats. Despite a feeling of distrust among the non-Mor- mons of both parties due to the happen ings of recent years. the alignment on National lines has been kept up. and Mor- mons and Gentiles have intermingled within the lines of their respective or ganixations. The Mormons have pro- fessed to be acting in good faith and to be free from all dctation from ecclesias- tical sources.
 A Surprise to Gentiles.
 Tn the city election. however, there was disagreeable surprise for the Gentle element. This element is in majority in the city by several thousands, due to the great influx of non Mormons in the last ten years. ana it would nave been easily possible to have elected city adminis- tration composed entirely of it's repre- sentatives. Each party nominated Gen tile for Mayor. but granted to the Nor mons several other city offices and a di- vision of the candidates for the Council When election day came. the Republican Mayor was elected but it was found in every ease where a Gentle had been op- posed to Mormon on the ticket he had been scratched freely and in some iri- stances was defeated. Tn the returns on the City Council it was found that the scratching had been done more freely, and the result was the election of Mormon Democrats in strong Republican wards and Mormon Republicans in equally strong Democratic wards While the Re publicans were left in ostensible control of the Council. it was discovered that the control really lay with the Mornons of both parties.
 It has since been charged that this re- suit was brought about under direct or ders from the Mormon Church authori- ties. Their organization for political or other purposes Is a perfect one. The citS is divided into twentyone Bishops wards over each of which pfesides a Bishop and two councillors. who give allegiance to the Presidency of the Salt Lake State which in turn gives allegiance to the First Vice Presidency of the Church. Under the Bishops are teachers, of whom there are one Or two to each square. and deacons-younger men-of about the sama number. Through this organization it is possible to reach every member Of the Mormon Church in the city within twelve

 Mfr. Jacksons reply was;

That this revolution will sweep

State and parish affairs for many

they abolish one evil they must a
bolish the other. Blanchard is the
forced heir of the old boss system.
He has allied himself with it in

date for Office, however upright
and admirable in character and
record, who allies himself to Blan-
chard. who LINKS Ills cause with
him, will discover that he has lost
his political chance. The people

He dislikes and fears ell popular
movements and is unable to see

of public sentiment in favor OF
free democratic government now
sweeping through the hearts OF the
people of the state. Like all
blind leaders of the blind. they
and their deluded followers are
clinging to the old organization
that once had power to sway the

think is something to conjure with
but, face to face with an awakened

of their power which they have
filched and have used only fol

realize that the reign of deals and

LONDON, March 2s.--Prof. John A. Flem-
ing, the well-known electrical engineer,
has been experimenting extensively In
ethergraphy at Poldhu for the purpose OF
determining the question Of interference
with photographic messages travelling Sd
multaneously. In lecture before the Society
Of Arts he said that his experiments had
proved conclusively that there ia no inter-
ference.
Separate. concurrent messages could be
sent across the Atlantic and received on
separate receivers without clsshing in the
least. Similarly the great transatlantic
transmitters and receivers could work
without the least Interference with small
transmitters and receivers In their i'm
mediate neighborhood. Prof. Fleming re-
lated in detail the nature Of his expert
ments In this direction.
He also experimented with the especial
view of discovering the difficulties arising
from the interception Of messages in tran
sit. He said that he distinguished In con-
nection with this subject between hear
ing and mot being able to help hearing
For instance, a person might not be able
to hear what yas passing In an adjoining
room, yet upon his ear to q keyhole he
might. Similarly an photographic receiver.
while not recording q message intended
for another destination, unless 1t happened
to be syntomixed thereto, could be 30 ad-
justed as to record IL.
Prof. Fleming did not deal with any
method Of preventing interception. his ex-
periments tending apparently to confirm
the claim that the tapping Of wireless mes
sages Is always possible by syntonizing
He said that syutony ID a. effective for long
distances as for short.
