WITH THE MORMONs.

Editor Wells of the Litchville Bull
letin, one Of the members of the edi-
torial party who recently went on the
Pacific coast excursion, in reference
to their stop at Salt Lake, says:
The Mormons has been roundiy
abused by most Of the human race.
It's the style to rip him up the back
and visit all the sins that flesh is
heir to upon his shoulders. Every
crime in Utah, is of course laid at
the door of the Mormon church. He
takes the place of the boyle man to
scare bad children. Hell is supposed
to have been heated up 1877 degrees
hotter since the days Of Brigham
Young. But the forty-four North
Dakota editors and their wives were
not able to discover anything SO very
hideous Or terrible about them.
They used to have plural marriages.
Mormons who could support more
than one wife and were so inclined,
sometimes took a second and even a
third. But in those days there were
a vast majority of Mormons who had
but n wife. All this was very
wrong, and yet there is not one in
stance on record where a Mormon
ever forsook or deserted a wife or
child, or ave failed to provide food
and shelter for them. And there is
but one intsance known where. a
woman forsook her husband in the
fifty years or more of Mormon history.
That was when Anna Eliza left Brig
ham Young and went forth and lied
about her people because Brigham re-
fused to make her the favorite wife
The government, years ago, passed q
law prohibiting plural marriages and
the Mormons accepted the law and nc
man in Utah marries more than one
wife now. They are a law-abidine
people. But the older Mormons con.
tinue to support their wives and
children, even though they dare moi
live with them openly.
When congress passed the law pro.
hibiting plural marriages, it also ap.
propriated money to build a home and
offered to support the wives and
children Of the Mormons who kept 8
flock of females. The home was duly
erected and opened but there neve,
was a woman or child who applied tt

Young Plants

Every farmer knows that
some plants grow better than
Others. Soil may be the same
and seed may seem the same
but some plants are weak and
Others strong.
And that's the way with
children. They are like young
pants. Same food, same home,
same care but some grow big
a2d strong while others stay
nall and weak.
SCOTS Emulsion offers an
!, lsy way out Of the difficulty.
iaild weakness often means
arvation, not because Of lack
! food, but because the food
does not feed.
SCOTS Emulsion reallyfeeds
and gives the child growing
strength.
Whatever the cause Of weak
ness and failure to grow
SCOTS Emulsion seems to find
it and set the matter right.

Mrs. Burdick, in her testimony at
Buffalo said there had never been
anything wrong in her relations with
Arthur Pennell. Burdick caught
Pennell and Mrs. Burdick in a room
several times, but Mrs. Burdick de-
clares that Pennell, during these
meetings, as we'll as others, acted like
a perfect gentleman" Mrs. Bur
dick and Pennell met in New York
and Atlantic City, and spent days and
highs together, but there was never
anything wrong between them, Mrs.
Burdick said. Burdick had sued for
a divorce, charging that Mrs. Burdick
and Pennell had been carrying on
for two years. Three times he had
forgiven his wife, and taken her
back, on her confession of guilt.
But now she testifes that was
anything wrong between Pennell and
herself! O, what a liar!

the revolution of sentiment he desires.
Two or three examples may illustrate
the fact. John D. Rockefeller, who
has crowded hundreds of small oil
operators to the wall by unconcion-
able transaction, has taught a Sunday
school class for forty years. Presi-
dent Baer Of the Reading railroad
company assumed such intimate rela-
tions with the Deity that he declared
solemnly that He had given the coal
Of the United States into the hands Of
a few rich men. And since coal was
referred to by the bishop it may be
recalled that it was Nathan Strauss, a
Jew, who contrived the best philan-
throphy of,years and has furnished the
poor people of New York with coal
and milk and ice at just the cost of

Kansas City Star: A worthy bishop
of the Methodist Episcopal church, in
addressing the conference in session
at Carrollton, deplored the fact that
the Bible is not taught in the public
schools, and assigned to that neglect
Of the Scripture the prevalent evils
of the industrial system. He pointed
his tale with a moral drawn from the
conditions in the great coal mining
districts. The solicitude which the
bishop felt that the teachings of
Christianity should be considered in
the daily life will meet with respon-
sive sympathy, but exception must be
taken to his assumption that the read
ing of the words, however fraught

Taylor even got into an argument
with n elder and went to quoting
scripture. Of course it will require
quite a stretch of LaMoure magma

Mrs. Florence Maybrick, whose re-

by England in 1904, is an American
woman in whose innocence thousands
of Americans have always had faith.
In 1889, her husband, James May
brick, died in London. A letter
dropped by a baby, and which a
nursemaid read, led to her arrest. In
it she told her lover that the poison
was taking effect and she would seon
be free. The judge was particularly
severe upon her for the immoral rela-
lions the testimony showed that she
sustained with another man. She
was sentenced to death and her sen
tence committed to imprisonment fol

mission houses and others Interested
in the future of the fax crop Of this
state are making inquiries about the
probable acreage this spring. From
Inquiries it is probable that a great
deal less than last year will be seeded.
The partial failure last year has dis
-couraged a good many who did not
get a profitable yield, and the low
prices that have prevailed have set
Ftled$sthe snatter with others, The
crop is a hard one to handle, and only
high prices ever tempted anyone to
sow the seed. The feeling is that
there Is no reason why prices should
be lower than a year ago, and the
facility with which the price can be
chopped off makes farmers feel inse-
cure. They realize that the crop is
too hazardous a n to depend on for
a profit. In addition it is exhausting
to the soil and will have to be aban-
doned sooner Or later entirely, and
hey might as well stop raising it now
as later. For these reasons the acre
age will be greatly reduced both in
the northern and central parts of the
state where the heaviest crops have
been raised. A good many did not
cut their crop of flax last year, and
many found that the crop after
threshing was a losing crop. The
frost did a great deal Of damage also.
The main dependence on fax will be
on new lands. a
