MORMON LEADER
PREDICTS A PANIC

Salt Lake City, Utah. April 5.-Presi-
dent Joseph F. Smith. head Of the Nor
mon church and its revelator. seer and
prophet. made remarkable address to
$1,000 Mormons at the seventy-third
annual conference held in the great
tabernacle yesterday.
Speaking as one inspired and as the
mouthpiece of God, President Smith
declared financial panic was due. He
warned his hearers to prepare for a
period of hardship.
Millionaires and farm hands were in
the great auditorium that was spell
bound by the prophets words. In
opening his address President Smith
said Il desire to mention one of two
subjects which l deem worthy the at
tention OF the brethren who shall
speak by the holy spirit. One of these
is.
"In this time of prosperity, 1t is
highly proper for the Latter Day Saints
to get out of debt. We may prepare
now for period of great depression y
Then. referring to the New York
newspapers attack on Mormonism, he
said: There never was time when
1t was so necessary as now for the
Latter Day Saints to live their religion.
See the activity of the enemies of our
religion. When the heather rage and
the wicked inveigh against the follow
ers Of this religion. you may set 1t
down as fact that the devil is not
dead"
President Smith scored the genteel
professors without mincing words.
THE vast majority OF these" he de-
clared, ARE worthless. They are
leeches upon the body polite"

PRESIDENT SPEAKS ON CUBAN
TREATY AND TARIFF QUESTION

The present phenomenal prosperity
has been won under tariff which was
made in accordance with certain fixed
and definite principles. the most i'm
portant Of which is an avowed deter
mination to protect the interests OF the
American producer. business man.
In making any readjustment there
are certain important considerations
which cannot be disregarded. III tar
in law has on the whole worked well.
and II business has prospered under II
Md is prospering. it may be better to
endure some inconvenience and in
equalities for time than by making
changes to risk causing disturbance
and perhaps paralysis in the industries
and business of the country.
"One point we must steadily keep in
mind. The question of tariff revision.
speaking broadly, stands wholly apart
from the question of dealing with the
trusts.
NO change in tariff duties can have
any substantial effect in solving the So
called trust problem.
Certain great trusts OF great cor
porations are wholly unaffected by the
tariff. Practically all the others that
are Of any importance have as matter
of fact numbers of smaller American
competitors, and, of course, a change in
the tariff which would work injury to
the large corporation would work not
merely injury but destruction to its
smaller competitors, and equally. OF
course, such a change would mean dis
aster to all the wage-workers connect
ed with either the large or the small
corporations. From the standpoint OF
those interested in the solution Of the
trust problem such change would
therefore merely mean that the trust
was relieved of the competition of its
weaker American competitors and
thrown only into competition with for
eign competitors, and that the first eff
fort to meet this new competition
would he made by cutting down wages.
and wOnld. therefore, be primarily at
the cost of labor. In case of some of
our greatest trusts such a change
might confer upon them a positive
benefit. Speaking broadly, it is evi-
dent that the changes in the tariff will
affect the trusts for veal or for woe
simply as they affect the whole coun-
try. The tariff affects trusts only as it
affects all other interests. 1t makes
all these interests, large or small,
profitable, and its benefits can be TAX
en- from the large only under penalty
of taking them from the small also.
ITO sum up, then. we must as peo-
pie approach mattel of such prime
economic importance as the tariff
from the standpoint of our business
needs. We cannot afford to become
fossilized or to fail to recognize the
fact that as the needs of the country
change 1t may be necessary to meet
these new needs by changing certain
features of our tariff laws. Still less
can we afford to fail to recognize the
further fact that these changes must
not be made until the need for them

Minneapolis, April 5.-President
Roosevelt and party arrived here at 5
O'Clock yesterday afternoon. A drive
through the principal street. with the
mayor acting as escort, ended at the
NicOllet hotel, where a short reception
was held. The President was then
taken to the banquet hall. where hun
dreds of the leading men of the city
gave hearty reception.
After the banquet President Roose-
welt was introduced and spoke on The
Tariff" In part, as follows
My Fellow Citizens: At the spe-
cial session of the Senate held in
March the Cuban reciprocity treaty
was ratified. When this treaty goes
into effect 1t will confer substantial
economic benefits alike upon Cuba, be-
cause of the widening of her market
in the United States. and upon the
United States, because of the equal
widening and the progressive control
1t will give to our people in the Cuban
market
Under the Platt amendment Cuba
agreed to give us certain naval sta
tions on her coast. The Navy Depart
ment decided that we needed but two,
and we have specified where these two
are to be. President Palma has con-
cluded an agreement giving them to
us-an agreement which the Cuban
legislative body will doubtless soon
ratify. In other words, the Republic
Of Cuba has assumed a special relation
to our International political system,
under which she gives us outposts of
defense, and We are morally bound to
extend to her in a degree the benefit
of our own economic system. From
every standpoint of wise and enlight-
ened home and foreign policy the rati-
fication of the Cuban treaty marked a
step Of substantial progress in the
growth Of our Nation toward greatness
at home and abroad
Equally important was the action
on the tariff upon products of the Phil
ippines. We gave them a reduction of
twenty-five per cent, and would have
given them reduction of twenty five
per cent. more had it not been for the
opposition, in the hurried closing
days of the last session, of certain gen.
tlemen who, by the way. have been
representing themselves both as pc
culiarly solicitous for the interests of
the Philippine people and as special
champions of the lowering of tariff
duties. There is a distinctly humorous
side to the fact that the reduction of
duties which would benefit Cuba and
the Philippines, as well as ourselves,
was antagonized chiefly by those who
in theory have been fond of proclaim
ing themselves the advanced guardians
of the oppressed nationalities in the
islands affected and the ardent advo-
Gates of the reduction of duties gener-
ally, but who instantly took violent
ground against the practical steps to
accomplish either purpose.
Moreover, law was enacted put
ting anthracite on the free list and
completely removing the duties on all
other kinds of coal for one year.

In Mamorx Of w. N. axers.

Denver. April 6.-The legislative
committee appointed to draft resolu-
tions upon the death Of William New
ton Byers submitted the following to
the two houses. The Senate yester-
day adopted the resolutions by a
standing vote. The same proceeding
took place in the House Saturday.
The resolutions:
Whereas. An all-wise Providence has
removed from the walks of life that
sturdy pioneer and kindly Christian
gentleman. the Hon. William N. By
ers. and,
Whereas. The deceased, since the
beginning of civilization within the
borders of the state of Colorado, has
been intimately connected with every
enterprise that tended to upbuild the
great West and make our beloved
state what it is to-day, and was one
to whom the people always looked for
assistance in any enterprise to in
crease their prosperity. add to their
enjoyment or foster their moral wei
fare: and
Whereas, 1t is fitting that the Leg
islature of the state of Colorado as
the representatives of the citizens OF
this commonwealth, should express
their sorrow in the loss of such a citi-
zen, and affirmation of the state Of
his many virtues as a man and maker
OF this state; now therefore, be it
Resolved. BY the Fourteenth Gen
eral Assembly of the state of Colorado.

William n. Byers an inestimable loss
to the people Of the state of Colorado.

Resolved. Further, That a copy OF
these resolutions be spread upon the

RePORMs IN CURRENCY

The bankers association OF Wiscon-
sin has voted down the proposals 70
currency reform which Mr.. Bryan his
been alleging were devised for t-e
special benefit Of bankers. They co
no see the value OF the special p-iF-
ileges which he says are TO be con-
ferred upon them. The fact is that
the bankers are as much divided on
the subject as any other e'ass of PEG
pie. and that fact accounts for the
slow progress made. The banke 5 a e
supposed to be as well informed en-
finance as anybody. and the aver &c
congressman concludes that if e7ea
they nave matured no pan that com
mands general approval the subject
will bear letting alone for some time
yet.
1t is apparent that the count y
bankers are almost unanimously OPP
posed to the branch bank proposition
and the public is no doubt with them
in their opposition. Mr.. Fowler nigh
better accept this attitude as un-
~changeable and amend his biz accord
irgly. There is not the slightest ?roJ-
ability that sentiment upon this point
can be modified at an early dat.
Meantime, substantially the same re-
suit is being accomplished in another
way. There isn't a county seat town
known that does not have its g our Il
local fnancie.s who control a string
Of small banks. The great banks &
New York are reaching out T.. the
same way, and to al intents and plr-
poses each new purchase becomes an
other branch"
The chief advantages claimed for
the branch bank system are a grea CT
huidity CT resources and greater sold
arity, or greater harmony and uni y
In time &C panic one source of weak
ness in a system of individual bank
is their jealousy and fear of each

they practically pool their resource.
il time of trouble, a1d by pursuing
a common policy are imp egnab e. The
strength that is found in the greater
solidarity is one CT the ends sought
by branch banking. Whether Who'll }
desirable or not, these ends are being
reached by the same method that has
largely supported railway competi
ton, towit, community of interest.
Upon the subject Of note issue
without special security there is {
great deal of beating tie air and We J
little tax that is pertinent. The op
pcnents Of the proposition Almost in
variably miss the issue and show tina
they do not comprehend the plan o.
the argument for it. There is a tire
some sameaess to their objections
Here is Mr.. Frame, a Wisconsin bank
or, who has been talking on the sub
ject for several years. who says tina
the plea for an elastic currency
simply a plea for more money
would ceem that Re has never rea,
an argument for an elastic currency

realizes that such a currency mus
