Mormons Urged to Boycott Gentiles

MormOns Urged to Boycott Gentiles.
A dispatch from Salt Lake of Oct. 8
says: The St. George Advocate. pub.
lished at st. George, Utah, by Charles
s. Wilkinson, a prominent churchman,
prints a sermon delivered by President
Joseph F. Smith, of the Mormon
Church, at the conference of the st.
George Stake of the Church on Sept. II.
In his sermon President Smith coun-
selled the people of the church against
selling lands to "Gentiles," or
aiding them in any way. "The
Gentiles are coming among us to
buy u homes and land. we should not
sell to them nor aid them, as they are
the enemies of the Kingdom of God"
the President is quoted as saying. Con-
tinuing, President Smith said he had
never sought to be a vast landowner,
but he never sold an inch of ground to
IN enemy of Gods work. At the office
Of the First Presidency in Salt Lake no
confirmation or denial of the quotation
was obtainable.

Women will Figure in Campaign.

g
A dispatch of Oct. 3 from Chicago
says: Women of the West this year
will figure in the Presidential campaign
as they never have figured before, and,
according to dispatches from Denver,
Salt Lake City and Cheyenne, Wyo..
their vote will be tho heaviest wei cast.
In Colorado the women's vote is ex.
pected to be increased, but the men of
both parties are said to be trying to dis
courage them from taking sides in the
State campaign. which is a complicated
fight. In Wyoming the vote nominally
is 6 women to 10 men. It is expected
that the ratio probably will be increased,
8 to 10. In Utah the Mormon Elders
are urging the women to vote for Roose.
welt on the plea that if he is elected
Senator Smoot will retain his seat.
The vote of the Gentle women in Idaho
probably will Offset the vote in Utah,
for politics in the two States has re-
solved itself into a fight for and against
the Mormon Church.

SENATOR STEWART ARRIVES.
Visit Is for Pleasure and Has NO
Political Significance.

Senator William NJ. Stewart and Mrs.
Stewart arrived at Reno last sunday
from Washington, on their way to visit
the Senator's granddaughter, Mrs.
Theo Hofer of Carson City.
"My visit has no political signif-
canoe" said the Senator TO a Gazette re-
porter. 81 think that after 40 years OF
political strife it is time hat l took q
~long-earned rest. l have much to De
grateful to the people of Nevada Tor.
Forty years ago when this state was
new it honored me with the election as
United States Senator and has tour
times since.
al came to Nevada in 1859 and hung
out my shingle / n virginia
City. So I feel an interest in this State
and its people which few other men
who were not here in those pioneer days
can feel. We were the ones that gave
the State its birth, who hewed 1t into
an organized commonwealth, and the
few of us who are left of those original
pioneers have a feeling for this State
that newer men here cannot feel. L
have been called a ca~rpet-bagger by
some who were not born when 1 was
assisting in the building OF inc state.
1t is a pleasure to me to come back here,
more so now, when l have nothing to
ask and only come out of deep graft
tude to the people here, than when in
the past / have come asking for your
suffrage. 1 have fought some hard
won battles in this State. But l have
always fought from the open and
straight out from the shoulder. l have
never made a sneaking fight, a treacher-
Gus fight or a cowardly fight. The
political enemies that l have made can
not accuse me of striking behind the
back or warning otherwise than
squarely. I have given and taken hard
blows. But all that is past now.
Newer men are among you for your
leaders and for the first time in my
life I can act the spectator"

NescspapeyYnan Drops Out of the Bag.
James T. O'Brien, editor Of the Gold
field News, who was nominated for
Assemblyman by the Democratic Con-
vention Of Esmeralda County, last
week published a card in his paper de-
clining the nomination. Mr.. O'Brien
states that the nomination was made
without his knowledge or consent, and
during his absence on a vacation. "fhe
honor of first representing in the State
Legislature what will go down in his
tory as the greatest gold camp ever
known, is q substantial one and for that
and other reasons the question of &C.
cepting the nomination was seriously
considered" says Mr.. O'Brien. Glow
ever, after returning to camp and see
ing how the work on the paper is in
creasing l feel that it is imperative for
me to decline the nomination. l can do
more good for Goldield-to say nothing
of my own material welfare-by giving
my undivided attention to the News
than by going to the Legislature If
elected"

EDISON SCORES SONS COMPANY
Denounces Alleged Discovery of Vita
lizer as q Cure for Disease.

Washington, Oct. 4.-Thomas A. Edi-
son ST., the famous electrical inventor,
figures prominently in the charges con-
tanned in a fraud order issued to-day by
the Postoffice Department against the
Thomas A. Edison Jr., Chemical Com
pany Of New York. The company is
engaged in the manufacture of the
"Magno-E Electric Vitalizer," a device
widely advertised as a cure for many
diseases. In its advertising the COM
pany heralded the fact that the inven-
ton was the work of Thomas A. Edison
Jr., eldest son of the famous electrical
inventor, and made sweeping state
ments about the young man inheriting
all the genius of his father.
Edison Sr. says in an affidavit that
his son has never shown any ability as
an inventor or electrical expert and that
he believes his son incapable of making
any invention or discovery of merit and
that the son was employed for mere
clerical work.

While we are still in favor of silver as a
monetary unit, we recognize that the protec.
