AnSwerable 10 Utah.
WASHINGTON, March with his
Noice shaking with emotion and exhib.
ting more intensity OF feeling than at

Joseph f. Smith. president Of the Nor
A.on church. declared that congress
Lad no right to interfere In his private
affairs and could not call him to ac-
count for his marriage relations. what
ever they might be.
1T is to the laws of Utah that | am
answerable," said Mr. Smith. 1T is
the law of my state that has the right
to punish me. The courts of Utah are
of competent jurisdiction. Congress
has no right to interfere in my private
affairs. If the courts of my state don't
see fit to call me to account | cannot
help it. Congress has no right to inter
fere, and it has no right to pry into my
marriage relations"
This statement by the head of the
Mormon church evidently made seri-
GUS and unpleasant impression on the
minds Of all his hearers. 1t is thought
it will have a farreaching effect on the
case of Senator Reed Smoot who Is
trying to hold his seat in the United
States senate against thousands of
protests of the women Of America.
