JOSEPH F. SMITH, president of
the Mormon church, was before the
Smuot investigating committee one
day last week, and his testimony
was most sensational. He admitted
that he was living in polygamy
He says he has five wives and each
of them has born him children
since 1890, the date of the manifes-
to. His wives have borne him II
children since that time. While
the polygamous antics of Joseph
have little bearing on the Smoot
case, it certainly does look as
though the Mormons were not liv-
irg up to their promises.

another in San Francisco, the
meaning of which was that any

THE campaign will soon be on in

pie profess contempt for politics
and it is TO be admitted that some
politicians are contemplate, but
there are black sheep in every walk
of life and 1t is wrong to think of
politics as something to be sp1rned.
Washington was a politician. 50
were Lincoln and Mckinley and a
long line of illustrious names. But
they were not the kind OF men who
made promises they never intended
to fulfill, or gave the marble heart
to the friends who elected them to
positions of honor and trust. Foll
tics brings out the noblest as well
as the meanest traits of man. In
politics as in business, honesty is
the best policy. And after all, it is
the true, earnest, manly fel'Ow
who succeed for any length Of
time-the contemplate are found
out sooner or later, and the people

An Honest Opinion,

Mineral, Idaho, Nov. 14th.-(Spe.
c!al)-That a sure cure has been
discovered for those sciatic pains that
make sc many lives miserable, is the
firm opinion of Mr.. D. S. Colson, a
well known resident of this place,
and he does not hesitate to say that
cure is Dodd's Kidney Pills. The
reason Mr.. Colson is so firm in his
opinion is that he had those terrible
pains and is cured. Speaking of the
matter he says:
81 am only too happy to say Dodd's
Kidney Pills have done me lots of
good. l had awful pains in my hip
so l could hardly walk. Dodd's Kid.
ney Pills stopped 1t entirely. l think
they are a grand medicine"
All sciatic and Rheumatic pains are
caused by Uric Acid in the blood
Dodd's Kidney Pills make healthy
Kidneys, and healthy Kidneys strain
all the Uric Acid out of the blood
With the cause removed there can be
no Rheumatism or Sciatica.
