REPLY AND EXPLANATION.

In reply to Mr.. Lowell's very
timely suggestions and by way of
explanationit may be said that Mr.,
Wiley's report recommended the
placing of $50 men and teams on
the entire works, not upon the side
hill of the Phyllis. 1t is reported
that there are about 40 teams ready
to go to work on the Phyllis side:
there are so men and teams at work
below Nampa on the Phyllis and
Others are being put on Just as
rapidly as tools can be procured for
them to work with. Every scraper
in Caldwell, Nampa and Boise was
purchased within the last week and
still there is a shortage. 1t should
be understood that in addition to
the 90 outfits mentioned there are
three or four contractors outfits at
work besides gang of bridge and
hume carpenters. There is reallv
at work about the force recon-.

mended by Mr.. Wiley, and mere
would have been put on iffthey
could have been equipped.
It must also be borne in mind
that the bond election was not held
until the 9th and the Board of Di-
rectors could have no official knowl-
edge of the result until next Mon.
day. Moreover, those bonds have
not been sold, and there are many
who refuse to work for the District
unless the cash is in sight. Other
explanations could be, and in due
time will be, made that may show
very clearly why work is not prose-
cuted with greater rapidity.

PROBABLE RESULTS.

The testimony given before the
Senate investigation commit tee in
the Reed Smoot case, by Joseph H.
Smith, president of the Mormon
Church, may be in the nature of a
startling revelation" to people un-
acquainted with the situation in
Utah. But to the moderately we'll
informed there is nothing startling,
nothing extraordinary about it.
Indeed it has been matter of COM
mon repute that those Mormons
who had contracted polygamous re-
lations prior to the manifesto were
maintaining those relations undis-
turbed. And twas the general un-
derstanding that there was no de-
sire to disturb them. There are,
in fact, good reasons for believing
that there was an understanding,
amounting to compact, to that et-
feet. We believe, and the evidence
! in support of the belief is abundant,
that this polygamy question had
been permitted to die peaceably,
had not political motives inspired
interested individuals to stir it up.
The real offense charged against
polygamist is not that they cohabit
with too many women, but that
men prominent in the Mormon
Church seek high political Office.
Were Reed Smoot an elder instead
Of an apostle, there would be no
question of his title to seat in the
United States Senate; there would
been no investigation, and there
would have been no opportunity
tor some Idaho newspapers to pre-
tend astonishment and assume an
attitude of righteous indignation.
!. However, the President of the
Mormon Church has told in Wash
.ington the facts which the people
OF Utah and Idaho very generally
knew to be true. The immediate
result may be the unseating of Sem
ator $Smoot, and a considerable
renewalsof auti-Mormon agitation.
In Idaho we may expect to see
Mormonism made a political issue
which will put to the test the sim
cerity Of a good many politicians.
1t we may judge from present ap-
pearances, we would say that the
Democratic Party of this State will |
pose as the anti-Mormon organiza-
ton, and will thus secure the SYM
pathy and support of many Repub-
licans, unless the Republican Party |
should become as emphatically anti
Mormon as the Democrats. It is |
not yet the proper time to discuss
the hypocricy OF any anti-Mormon
movement which may be started in
this State. 1t is opportune, though,
to point out that nothing has occur
red or transpired during the investi-
cation at Washington which was
not well known to every politician
in Idaho before the investigation.
Nothing new has been disclosed.
There is no more excuse or justif-
cation for an anti-Mormon crusade
now than at any time during the
past eight or ten years. But a pre-
text which some have been hoping
tor has probably been found, and,
the chances are, advantage will be
taken of it.
