WAGES AND FOOD PRICES
TO FIGURE IN CAMPAIGN
Democrats Will Attempt to Show
the Country Is Not Really
Prosperous.
WRIGHT0S
STATISTICS

Special TO the Indianapolis Journal
WASHINGTON, May 25.-It was stated
at Democratic headquarters to-day that 1t
Is the purpose of the committee to issue
the campaign handbook Immediately after
the st. Louis convention. The interesting
fact In connection with this statement Is
that the handbook will be devoted in large
part to an effort to show that the prosper
ity which Republicans claim exists is not
real; that wages are lower and prices
higher. The recent figures by the Bureau
of Labor regarding wholesale prices will be
used for illustration.
The Republicans are confidently waiting
for another series of statistics soon to be
issued by Commissioner Carroll d. Wright.
The proofs are now being revised on a set
Of figures giving the actual cost of living
from prices of tetail products. and another
set is soon to be out covering the wages Of
the country from 1890 down to the close Of
1903. 1t is claimed at the Labor Bureau
that these statistical works will show that,
while prices have been higher in the past
four years, they are now falling.
Wages. on the other hand, it will
be shown. were higher in 1903 than
they were in 1892. the highest mark
recorded in the history of the country be-
fore the depression of 1894. There is said
10 be a tendency in wages to decline slight
ly with falling prices of commodities. but
the wage standard is still much higher tina
it was even before the period of business
depression. In other words, IL Is expected
TO be shown by the government reports on
wages and retail prices that wages have
increased much above what they were in
any former period and that even with the
present high prices the rewards of labor are
greater in proportion. which is accepted as
a basis for the prosperity that exists.
Henry c. Matthews. of Lafayette, is ex-

have taken no plural wives since the
manifesto of 1890"
Replying to a question from Senator
Overman, Smith said that the pam
phlet containing the manifesto did not
state that it was a revelation from
God, but that the statement was made
that it was published by authority of
the church, which was sufficient.
1t then appeared that the manifesto
had not been put in evidence. and Tay-
ler then introduced it with other docu-
ments.
A few minutes before the time for
adjournment arrived q photographer
appeared and was about 10 focus his
camera upon the committee and It's
distinguished witness. but Senator Dill
lingham made a strenuous objection.
Chairman Burrows stated that no pho
tograph OF the committee or of the
room would be taken without the con-
sent of the committee. The photo
grapher then folded up his apparatus.
The committee then adjourned until
Monday.

is forbidden by both the law of the
land and the law of the church as
laid down in the Woodruff manifesto,
and addressing the witness. he asked:
Then, as head of the church, are
you violating the laws of the land and
the ordinances ofs your church as
well?"
Not the ordinances of the church."
said Mr.. Smith.
We'll, the law. then ,"
No; the rule" said the witness.
THE rule after all is the law for
conduct" said Senator Bailey. "I was
only trying to emphasize what the
revelations are. | don't know as much
about the nice distinctions in religion
as l hope 1 do about the law, but it
appears that both the rule OF the
church and the law of the land for
bade polygamous cohabitation, and
you, as the head of the church, yio-
lated both"
Il will not quarrel with the Senator
about that" the witness replied.
Later he said that Senator Bailey's as
sumption was cordial.
In answer to Senator Overrnan Mr..
Smith said that the revelation of the
manifesto OF 1890 had not been pub
lished in the latest edition OF doctrine
and covenants, but that this was an
oversight and would be corrected.

Smith said that ne does not teach

continued.

its help come to you

This is how Liquozone came to be
known in America.
A few years ago some Chicago men
in their travels learned that new
product had been discovered which
would destroy-at once and forever
the cause of germ disease.
This product had for more than 20
years been the constant Subject OF
scientific and chemical research. 1t
was manufactured solely from gas,
made i'll large part from the best
oxygen producers, and by secret
process requiring "A days. The prod
uct was then known as liauefed
ozone, because it accomplished what
oxygen does.
The remarkable cures due alone to
this product led these men to investi-
gate it. For two years they tested 1t,
through physicians and hospitals, in
this country and others. They cured
with it thousands of the most difficult
cases obtainable, including every dis
ease which was then called incurable
Then these men combined and staked
on this product their fortunes and

will run my risks before the law"
President Smiths voice sank with
emotion. He showed more feeling
than he had at any previous time ex-
hibited as he leaned forward and said
But it is to the laws of Utah that I
am answerable; it is the law of my
State that has the right to punish me-
The courts of Utah are of competent
Jurisdiction. Congress has no busi-
ness to interfere with my private af-
fairs.
IF the courts of my State do not
see fit to call me to account for my
conduct / cannot help it. Congress
has no right to interfere-it has no
right to pry into my marriage rela-
tions and call me to account"
Chairman Bowers at this point uues-
toned the witness. He asked;
You say you would not abandon
your wives or. your children. Why do
you consider It necessary to have issue
from your plural wives. in order to
clothe and care for your children that
had been born before unlawful CO.
habitation became a crime?''
Because my wives are IKE all otner

peace. harmony and good will between
myself and my good wives. That is
the kernel in the nut. That is why l

BAILEY QUOTES SCRIPTURE.
THE church gave me nv wives, and
| | do not think the church could be
consistent in taking them away" said
Mr. Smith in answer to a question as
to why he did not agree to the Wood
ruff manifesto.
THE Lord giveth and the Lord
taketh away" quoted Senator Bailey
from the Scriptures.
Continuing, the Senator said 1t ap-
