To The Salt Lake Herald:
The topic uppermost IN the minds Of
the people of Box Elder county at the
present time is the fight being waged
by the presidency of the stake here
against the people who erected the dam
cling pavilion and the musicians who play
in it. The question is, VIII the presi-
dent of the stake win Out2
- In order TO understand the situation,
/ send you brief history of the situa-
ton. For some five years prior TO 1888
the Christensen orchestra played in the
opera house. In the spring of 1903 the
orchestra was requested 10 work Tor
Oue-third less than Il had been receiv-
ing This they objected 10 and the m-m-
beTs were accordingly discharged. They
began the erection of 2 dancing. pavilion.
Then the president OF the stake called
a meeting of the high council and this
tribune ordered the musicians ''to re-
train from using the pavilion for dancing
purposes. but that said building be re-
moved and that the material used in
its construction be disposed Of This
ruling of the high council had more bind
ing effect that any decision OF a court.
To violate il meant disfellowship- So
the musicians offered to turn the build
ing over TO the bishops, OF they offered
to give the proceeds to the bishops.
This offer was not accepted and the
president Of the stake announced in the
tabernacle that he proposed 10 fight

were pleaCueu against. the musicians IN
every ward in the stake and then the
president OF the stake made this propo-
sitiou. that if the musicians would &C
knowledge that they had sought counsel
and that they were in the wrong. the
fight upon them would cease This the
musicians agreed to do and the president
had a statement prepared which the mu-
sicians were required 10 sign without any
consideration or deliberation. The presi-
dent signed q statement that the fight
was of. The words OF these two state
ments prepared under the direction of
the president Of the stake, had been
crafty shaped to luil suspicion, As soon
as the admission was obtained the war
was continued with double energy.
Then between fifty and q hundred Of
the people of Brigham got together and
built what is called the dancing acad-
envy. Here the Christensen orchestra
plays every Wednesday and Saturday
nights and the people flock TO the place
The opera house was not crowded as OF
yOre.
Now, the opera house was built by the
people upon the main square of Brigham
City. But the church authorities reduced
the main square to private ownership
by a method which lawyers do not recog-

FRANCE MAKING A STRENUOUS
EFFORT TO SECURE RECIPROCITY

If the United States reduced the rate
on champagnes France would reduce
tiie rate on Porto REQ coffee. But the
coffee reduction was not considered
fair equivalent for a reduction OF cham
payne
The discussions have not reached deI-
rite results as the question of further
concessions is dependent upon the bill,
now pending in parliament permitting
the government to restore the low rates
on pork and salt meats. The measure
is meeting with resistance from the ag-
ricultural element on the ground the
American products threaten French in
dustry, but there are indications that
the government influence will secure its
passage. The rates thereafter viii he
reduced from 50 francs per 100 kilos 20
20 francs, which is sufficient to renew
the trade Interrupted since last JUL.
Owing to the friendly attitude OF the
French authorities throughout the ne
gotiatiOns il is expected that readmis-
sion of American pork may lead TO a
further agreement or other articles dis
cussed-
