still taught polygamy. despite the order
Of President Woodruff against polygamy
and despite the law of the nation against
poly gamous marriages.
For those protesting against the seat
ing of Smoot it was eontended that he.
being one Of the ehurcf's twelve apos-
tiles. was sworn to uphold beliefs and
practices in conflict with the laws Of the
nation and therefore was unfit TO help
make the nations laws. MIR. Shoots

certain points and to court methods. The

Smith Gives Source Of His Power.
In his testimony President Smith ex-
planned that the first presidency was
composed Of the president Of the church
and two high priests or councillors and
that the twelve apostles, of whom Mr.,
Smoot was one, were next IN authority.
The presidents were electsd by the eoun-
Gil and the apostles, bat he believed and
1t WAS taught that the presidents were
really chosen by divine revelation and
endowed with the authority of the holy
priesthood by authority direct from God.
Mr.. Smith said he was a prophet and
seer and received revelations direct from
God.
President Smith declared that notwith-
standing a second revelation to the
effect that poIygamy is not obligatory
upon members of the Mormon church.
he still believed polygamy was right. He
was questioned closely in regard to the
principles Of divine revelations. He said
he adhered absolutely to all the teach
ings Of the church in that regard and
that he himself had been visited with
divine Inspirations from God directing
him as to details in matters pertaining
TO the welfare of the church. though nj
angels had c0ne to him, as in the case Of

The strenuous young governor Of ILL
nois, who has just been defeated for
denomination, has already commenced
to punish those Of his appointees who
did not support him to the last ditch.
He has demanded the resignation Of
twenty six prominent Republican Off
Gals, and hundreds more are to be de-
capitated. Death to all traitors!' Is
the motto Of Governor Yates, and it
is said that Mr.. Deneen, the nominee
for governor, agrees with him and will
if successful exclude from participa-
ton in the patronage distribution all
the partisans Of Senators CullOm and
Hopkins and the other members Of the
congressional delegation that opposed
the winning side. This strenuous eX-
hibition Of lack Of brotherly love be-
tween the Illinois Republicans shows
the mercenary machine that rules
them, which was aided and strength
ened by President Roosevelt when he
appointed the notorious Doc Jameson
a naval officer. Such Is Republican
politics everywhere-a machine over
thrown, another takes its place, all
based on patronage and plumber.

RECKLESS AND UNSAFE
Rooseve1t's Policy as Outlined
In His Cuban Letter.
CONTRARY TO COMMON SENSE.

John Sharp Williams Says Jingoisnl
Is Too weak Word to Describe
the President's Utterances Hys-
teria Better Expresses Them.
John Sharp Williams, Democratic
leader of the house, commenting in the
New York World on President Roose-
velt's lingo letter to the Cuban indie
pendence celebration, says among other
things:
THE most absolutely indefensible
thing which the president says is this:
IF a nation pays its obligations, then it
need fear no interference from the
United States The necessary infer
ence is that if a nation does not pay
its obligations then it must fear in
reference from the United States
This is the most absolutely reckless,
unsafe, and l had almost said insane,
utterance that has ever been attribut-
ed to a president of the United States.
l cannot believe that the president said
it. You must have misquoted him.
"As far as individuals are concerned
criminal procedure for the collection
of debts has been abolished in all civ
ilized countries. Dickens made the
people of England and Of the world
ashamed of Imprisonment for debt.
Now comes along the president of the
most enlightened nation of the world
and intimates that 1t is the duty Of
that nation to resort to interference
whenever a nation in the western hem
isphere refuses to pay it's obligations.
what would the interference be?
Why, If serious and if resisted 1t would
result in bombardmept Of cities, land
ing Of troops and killing Of men, be-
sides rendering women and children
houseless. Imagination of poet, mad
man or lover never went further than
the imagination of the acting president

the duty Of the United States to make
of itself a universal national collecting
agency; if he meant the same simply
to apply to people of the western hem

mated in the quotation which you sent
me from the presidents letter to ex-

dents words would be AN assumption.
of authority contrary not only 10 all
international usage but contrary to
the laws Of common sense.
"You ask me if it would not be a
fragrant exhibition of jingoism.' lingo
ism is word too weak. Madness
would come nearer to It, Hysteria
would come still nearer. But as a mat
ter CT fact the word has not yet been
invented symholizing the thing of
which that sort of verbiage would be
fragrant exhibition
by the way, if other nations are to
apply to us the doctrine which the
president is quoted as having laid down
as our guide in our relations with
them. then there might be some of
Them who might say that we are not
acting with 'decency in Industrial mat
ters' and that until we do act with
dpcency in industrial matters we are
subject at least to the risk Of inter
ference on their part.
but the last utterance which you
quote from the president is the most
remarkable-to wit: All that we ask
is that they govern themselves well
and be prosperous and orderly. Where
this is the case they will find helpful
ness from u.s. The inference is that
if they conduct themselves in any 9th
er way they will find unhelpfulness
from us. Whether this unAelpfulness
is to be merely passive or active, af
tirmative and aggressive is not stated.
"At any rate, it would be curious to
consider this row discovery in the
realm of international relations from
the standpoint Of the condition of the
United States in 1877, when both panic
and Molly McGuires were in evidence,
and also about 1893, when panic, Chi
cago strikes and various other things
were in evidence, l think it could
hardly be said that we were prosper
Gus or orderly at either Of these two
periods or at several others in the his
tory of our country, and yet had the
nations OF the world turned this acting
presidential doctrine around about on
us l think we could have replied that,
although we were neither prosperous
nor orderly, we were at least, like the
dancing girl in the western show, do
ing the best we could and because OF
that had a right to beg not to be shot
at'"

Mr.. Bryan, fearing that he was be-
ing lost sight OF in his quiet Nebraska
abode, decided upon dashing Euro
pean visit for the purpose of again
putting himself in the public eye and
more particularly the eye of democracy,
whom he again hopes to dictate to at
the next national convention. If we
are to believe the press reports, Mr..
Bryan has made most pleasing i'm
preston abroad and has been wined
and dined by the best on that side.
The gentleman from Lincoln evidently
thought that Mr.. German was gaining
too much Roadway in seeking the
presidential nomination and made a
grand play to the galleries in the hope
Of rallying his own following in the
democratic ranks and against Mr..
German. Mr.. Bryan seems to enter
tain a most cordial dislike for the
Maryland senator and just why, we
have very recently learned from one
of the current magazine articles of this
month. II seems that in 1896 when
Mr.. Bryan had just been chosen as
democracy's banner barrier, he con-
ceiyed the unique idea Of conducting
his campaign with a petticoat auxil-
larry and forthwith enlisted the services
of his estimable wife. Mr.. German
was called upon for an expression Of
his ideas on the proper conduct of a
campaign and was unfortunate enough
to displeasc the woman's auxiliary.
AS between his wife and Mr.. German,
Mr.. Bryan had to choose, it is need
less to state the result. If Mr.. Cor
man should, in spite of Mr.. Bryan S
efforts to the contrary, capture the
democratic nomination for the presi-
dency this year, it is to be hoped that
Mr.. Bryan will leave his wife home to
care for the children, in wh;c event
it is possible that Mr.. Bryan could re-
concile himself to the belief that Mr..
German isn't such a bad fellow after
all.

OFFICIAL PAPER OF ROSEBUD COUNTY

however, the benefit Of an annual CEN
sus of the cotton crop.
All that the live stock growers ask is
that census of farm animals be taken
once in every FIVE years, and it would
seem that they were fully justified in
making this request. The live stock
interests are very large, representing
in the aggregate product valued at
many millions of dollars.
In rapidly growing and develop
ing country like the United States,
many changes may take place in an
industry like stock growing in the
course of ten years; and thus men who
rely upon the figures of the regular
census, taken once in ten years, have,
toward the end of the census decade,
little upon which to base their market
calculations. -Phillipsburg Mail

A Live Stock Census

The National Live Stock association

congress to provide for a census of the
live stock of this country in 1905, and
this matter will be one of the interest

1t is claimed in behalf of an appro-

information concerning the number of
cattle and other farm animals in the
country, places stock growers at a dis
advantage in making their calcula
lions and estimates ON the course of the

Last week as we were just going to
press the dreadful news of Chicago
frightful theatre disaster reached us
in time for very slight INCEPTION only.
The first report Which stated that
eight hundred people had lost their
lives in fire in the Iroquois theatre
was not so far from the mark as is u.s.
ually to be expected in such cases, as
the later reports placed the total num-
Der of causulities at one thousand.
Six hundred having lost their lives.
The cause of the fire has not as yet
been definitely ascertained, but it
originated on the stage and is sup
posed to have been the result of an eX-
plosion of one of the calciums. The
crowd upon seeing the flames became
panic stricken, and in mad rush for
the exits practically caused its own de-
struction. Chicago has felt it's great
loss keenly and the entire city dis
played signs of deepest mourning.
The hospitals and morgucs were
taxed beyond their capacity and many
bodies had to be buried unidentified
because of the fearful mutilation.
Such accidents excite the sympathy of
world at large and it is with a feeling
of great sadness that we offer ours.

1908 has passed it's allotted time and
is succeeded by the infantile 1904.
During the reign of the departed year
many blessings have been bestowed
with a lavish hand upon the country
and it's people. But the pleasures
have not been all that the dead year
has left as a memento of it's past.
Many calamtes have marked the
epoch with its finger posts of sadness.
Accidents and loss of life have been
events recorded on the turned pages of
Time and the bitter has been mixed
with the sweet in the enjoyment of life.
What Will be the record of the present
year? Let us hope 1t will be no worse
than the one now past; and now. in
the bright morning OF the new let us
each resolve to do his part in making
his surrounding better for himself and
for his associates, and in this resolve
let it be carried out, and the world
will be better and the pleasures great
er for its execution. --Sheridan Enter

Between the business firms and
newspape S of Billings there seems to
be a touch of hard feeling or misun-
derstanding. That business houses
should send their advertising to an out
of town paper that has, or can have,
no interest in the welfare of the com
munity in which such business houses
are located, ignoring the local papers
which reach 200 per cent more of the
people, that would benefit them, than
the out of town paper, is condition Of
affairs difficult to understand. The
Billings papers are aroused to a right
eous indignation and it is to be hoped
that they will, in a very short space of
time, bridge over the difficulty and re-
store peace and harmony between
themselves and the business institu-
tiOns,
