The feeling was intense, and the
presence of ESQ armed partizans, rep
resenting each side at the polls. in
creased the danger kof bloodshed. The
rival bitterness was intensified by the
fact that Prouty, who says he was
robbed by Hull two years ago because
he obtained a majority of the popular
vote but lost the delegation thru a
crooked count, had obtained control
of the county central committee. In
this emergency, reputable business
men went to the polls in the interests
of a fair count. Ex-Governor Frank

among the men who volunteered in

ducts in the Country.

New York June 13.-In connection
with its prediction of a gigantic COM

valuable mineral properties in the
United States, with the possible excep-
tion Of the Calumet and Hecla copper
properties, in upper Michigan, the
World says:
within the past 10 days John D.
Rockefeller has taken up personally the
task which has been left to his brother
William and to H. H. Rogers, who have
been conspicuously identified with the
mineral interests Of the Standard Oil
capitalists.
In Colorado, David Moffatt and
Dennis Sullivan Of the First National
bank of Denver, have paid out many
millions in the last six years for mines,
and are said to have 70 per cent Of the
producing gold, silver and lead mines
Of the middle Rocky mountain district.
Senator Clark, owner of the United
Verde copper mines Of Arizona, and
with large holdings in many of the
Amalgamated Copper Company's in
terests in Montana, has been working
with Mr.. Rogers for several years. The
extensive placer gold interests Of
southern California, controlled by the
southern California banks, are in such
condition that they can be taken over
at any time.
IF. A. Heinze has been in the city
for several weeks. He will neither
affirm nor deny that he is negotiating
for the turning over Of his interests in
Montana to the new combine. The
only stumbling block in the way of
the deal is the insistence Of Mr.. Heinze
on being made an officer of the new
company, which will make it possible
for him to keep certain promises in
Montana"

Divorces
Are Right
Minister States That Jesus Christ
Left the Subject Open and No
One Has Right to Condemn.

Chicago, June 13.--In sermon or
divorce the Rev. Pease Pinch has de-
clared in Forastville Congregation
church that the attempt on the part
OF the stronger ecclesiastical bodies "a
whip preachers into line will only re-
suit in fresh dIsaser to the home.
Instead OF settling the divorce ques-
tlon." said the minister, Jesus left
the whole subject open. Ministers
are not compelled to say that all per-
sons divorced for anything but the
'one cause shall not marry again.
They are free to teach what obvious
justice and humanity require
and not harsh law that Jesus Christ
never gave. II, for exomple, woman
refuses to live with man who Is a
drunken brute and gets divorce from
him. and later marries decent man,
no preacher is bound to denounce such
marriage.
Divorce is too light a punishment
for offenders against the marriage tie.
The most serious offenses ought to
mean Imprisonment for life. 1t is not
laxity for which l plead, but the right
to teach not some outrageous rule
that Jesus Christ never gave but that
which the situation justihes.
