in hats, caps. boots, Shoes clothing,

The outlook for iron and steel is
not so bright as it was a week ago
owing to depression existing in some

demand is good for early work, few
contracts being made for business de-

The market in general, however rests
on solid basis, but affords little promise
of thorough spring revival until railroad
buying begins.

CHURCH AND STATE.
Evidence Showing That They Are
Closely United in Utah.

Washington. April 22.-The first wit
ness today in the Smoot case before
the senate committee on privileges and
elections was Judge o. W. Powers, who
was appointed by President Cleveland
in 1885, as an associate justice of the
supreme court of Utah. At that time
prosecutions under the Edmunds act
were just beginning and during his in
cumbency he said there had been about
100 persons prosecuted for polyganly and
polygamous coha bitation, among them
being Lorenzo Snow, then one of the
II apostles, who afterwards was elect
ed president of the church. Mr.. Snow
was convicted and sentenced.
Judge Powers said he had examined
persons who applied for naturalization.
In regard to an application by one Neil
Hansen, Judge Powers said he was in
formed by Hansen that he would obev
the laws of the church rather than
laws of the lands, if they should run
counter of each other" The applica-
ton for citizenship was denied.
In regardy to prosecutions Judge
Powers said most of them had been for
polygamous coha bitation. Few prose-
cutions were had for polygamy, lie
said, as there was then no marriage
law and marriages were secret and
polygauy therefore was hard to prove.
Judge Powers reviewed the political
history of Utah to show the close re-
lations of the Mormon with political
affairs also the immediate association
of the church with the local and muri-
cipal government. He showed that the
church controlled in civil as well as &C.
clesiastical affairs. In one case it was
shown that a man was disciplined and
was summoned by Abraham o. Smoot,
president of the high council of the
Utah stake of Zion. 1t was not shown
that any relationship existed between
Senator Smoot and the man mention

the two contesting teams resulting
from the selection of judges. Accot Il

was to select two. The list which

This action was challenged by the
Washburn men who demanded the
