HARPER's AND THE ENORMOUS"

The leading article in Harper's
Monthly Magazine for April Is entitled
Economic Aspects OF Mormonsm
and is written in a spirit that is truly
commendable for, Notwithstanding
some few errors OF fact and sentiment,
Il Ia IN the main correct and the au-
thor evidently intended TO be accurate
and fair. This is so different from most
OF the contributions OF non" Mormons'
to newspapers and magazines, as to be
notable and pleasing, and 10 form an H.
lustratlon o. the announcement recent
ly IN Leslie's Weekly that ''rhe time has
come TO tell the truth about the Nor
mons"
The article is from the pen Of DR..
Richard T. Ely, who is Professor Of
Political Economy. University OF Wis
consln, and who has studied his theme
on the spot which he describes, and
contemplated It from a standpoint not
altogether religious, 1t is therefore
free from those misconceptions which
render the usual dissertations from
sectarian preachers pens so shamefully
misleading and grotesquely absurd
DR.. Ely starts out with the admis-
sion that "Mormonlsm Is first Of an
religion and he therefore argues that
"any peculiar features on their econo-
mic and social life must be an out.
growth Of religion and Of church dlsci-
pllne,' The sincerity and abiding faith

than l have ever seen On any other
body o. people, an illustration Of the
individual who Is willing to sacrifice
himself for the whole. ami it Is relig-
ious sanction which impels him to do
So"
He speaks OF "the organization OF The
Mormons" as "a most nearly perfect
piece Of social mechanism. touching
life at an its points" But be falls into
a common mistake IN stating that the
Mormon creed regards church and
state as actually one, which shows
that he has taken for fact a popular
error which a closer Investigation Of
that creed would have saved him from
adopting.

He did not compare with Dean Stan

he was always sure OF his audience;

This was about the size of Dean Far

1t Is doubtful II any other member OF

He was great as an author as well as

While the recognition Of the House
in the treaty is all right In Itself, the
form of the stipulation Is unfortunate
The amendment reads: This treaty
shall not take effect until the same
shall have been approved by the Con-
gress. That seems 10 give to Congress
as legislative body a voice In treaty
making. 1t has none. Long ago the
House claimed such a voice, but its
right was properly denied. A treaty is
not and should not be submitted 10 the
House for its approval. II has nothing
TO do with approving treaties. The only

THE CUBAN TREATY.
New York Times.

II the House OF Representatives were
IN session and fayorably disposed to the
treaty with Cuba, the amendment ac-
cepted in the Senate providing that the
treaty shall not take effect until zap
proved by the Congress would be OF
little Importance, AS a matter OF fact,
most treaties sooner or later involve
expenditure, and as the House holds
the purse-strings, its consent is essen.
tial to their going into full effect. But
by accepting this amendment to the
Cuban treaty, the Senate voluntarily
diyests itself Of the power to ratify.

The argument that the wording OF
the amendment gives the House
share In the treaty-making power Of
the executive and Senate seems 20 be
a stretching OF terms not warranted by
facts or justified by possibilities. The
great danger Is the probability that the
amending the treaty will afford oppor-
tunities for a protracted tariff debate
In the House, which may result either
In total defeat or In delay that will
make the treaty OF no immediate value
TO those whom II is chiefly designed to
benefit.
