AS VIEWED BY ONE CRITIC,

Some surprise has been expressed
concerning the vote % Senator smoot
on the statehood bill. For that reason
the following comment viii be read
with some interest. Edward b. Clark
In a special from Washington to the
Chicago Evening Post OF Feb, 9, says;
senator smoot certainly is Of a for
giving spirit, lie proved II by his
course IN the statehood matter, Smoot
sat i'm the Senate and listened to at.
tacks on the Mormons, and to state.
ments that II New Mexico and Arizona
were admitted separately the Mormon
Church would there dominate politics,
BY indlrectlon the attack was made
personal to Smoot Charges that the
Mormon hierarchy would direct the
votes OF It's oficeholdlng members in
the states were made fatty,
"Smoot listened 10 all this and sat
stlll under IL and under the concentrat-
ed stare Of the galleries, Then. on the
amendment which would admit New
Mexico as a single state, he voted No
and voted In no uncertain voice. In
other words, he was voting against a
proposition which, II what Senators
Burrows and Dubois had said were
true, would give almost unlimited pow
or to the Mormon Church In the terri
tory when once Il was admitted TO the
sIsterhood Of states. Reed Smoot, by
his vote gave the lie, seemingly at
least, TO the charges made IN multiple
cation that a Mormon would seek first
the good Of his Church Smoot might
have voted aye and have been In such
good Republican company as that OF
Foraker Alger, Elkns, Galllnger ana
Hansborough, Smoot showed simply
that he believed IN sticking by a meas
ure Of his party even though that
measure was not to the liking Of the
Elders Of the Mormon Church"

Il falls back ON Webster Would 1t
not, by the same method, be possible
TO prove the absurd proposition that
every church, Including Bapusts
Quakers Cougreg1tionalists and Uni

Logic is Of course no protection to
the lamb against the hungry wolf, but
It shall be stated nevertheless, I'm the
Interest OF truth, that the Church Is
not ruled by q hierarchy, even accord
ing 20 Webster's definition, For he
says flierarchy--a form OF govern

other church in which the people in

RAMSEY OVERWHELMED BY GOULD VOTES
IN ELECTION OF WABASH DIRECTORATE

Toledo, O., Oct. 12.-Joseph Ramsey,
Jr., failed completely yesterday In his
effort to wrest the control OF the Wa
bash system from George j. Gould.
Not only was he utterly defeated in all
he undertook, but he was forced from
the directory of the road and now has
nothing whatever to do with its man
agement. He put up hard fight and
struggled gamely to the last, but was
so helplessly in the minority that he
never had a chance. He filed protests
all through the meeting, not with the
reason as he afterward declared OF be-
ing an obstructionist, but because he
desired to lay the foundation for any
contest that might hereafter be made.
He declared:
"The meeting that has just closed is
not the end of this affair by good
deal, but 1 cannot say just now what
the next step will be-"
Gould was highly pleased at the
outcome, although he showed his feel
ings less in words than by his manner

and hearty laugh as he contemplated
the figures showing the result. Just
before the announcement of the final
vote electing directors was announced,
Judge Doyle, speaking for Ramsey,
filed a formal protest against the cleo
ton as directors of the Wabash road
of Russell Sage and George J. Gould,
on the ground that they are directors
of the Missouri Pacific road, which is
a competing line of the Wabash. The
directors chosen by the bondholders
of the Wabash road are. Thomas H.
Hubbard, E. T. Jeffrey, John T. Terry,
Winslow S. Pierce, R. M. Galloway
and Edgar T. Welles.
The vote for each of the above was
228,150; for Ramsey 31,840. The di-
rectors chosen by stockholders are S.
G. Reynolds, George j. Gould, Russell
Sage, w. B. Sanders, r. c. Clowry, W..
H. Blodgett. The vote for each was
461, 467; for Joseph Ramsey 38,O42.
The director elected by the IL named
above was F. A. Delano.

PF|STER MUST
WAIT HIS TURN

Milwaukee, Oct. 12.-Attorney
Thomas M. Kearney of Racine, one Of
the counsel retained by Charles F.
Pfister to defend him in his trial on
the charge of larceny as baillee, called
upon District Attorney McGovern to
get the county prosecutor to set an
early date for the trial of Mr.. Pfster.
Mr.. McGovern refused to set such a
date. When asked if he would endeav-
or to give Mr.. Pfster an early trial,
Mr.. McGovern said: 81 do not see
why should. 1t seems to me that the
prisoners in Jail should receive first
consideration. Besides, 1 have no
right to set a date for a trial"
Mr.. Kearney said at the Offices Of
Quarles, Spence & Quarles that Dis
trict Attorney McGovern had refused
to give Mr.. Pfster any preference in
the matter OF an early trial and that
he, Mr.. Kearney, and Mr.. Pfster's
other attorneys would present the mat
ter to the municipal court on a motion
to have the case placed on the calen-
dar and day set for it's early trial.
Judge Brace, who has the power to
set the cases for trial, will take Tp the
next calendar on Saturday when this
matter will be brought before him,
said Mr. Kearney.

PROMINENT SPEAKERS FEAR
FINANCIAL DISTRESS.
LEGISLATION IN SIGHT
Action by Congress Said to Be Need

the Country at the White House
Program Drags.

Washington, Oct 12.-There pre-
vailed in important speeches before
the American Bankers association
convention here yesterday senti-
ment that financial legislation is
necessary. Thirty-three hundred
bankers applauded Secretary Shaw to
the echo when he concluded lengthy
address, the burden of which was a
panorama of the prosperity of the
country, contrasted with the moni
tary system, which is inflexible and
liable thereby to bring disaster at any
crucial time. Frank A. Vanderlip
of the City National bank of New
York, former assistant secretary OF
the treasury, saw the same prosperity,
and he also saw dangers ahead. Sec
rotary Shaw suggested a remedy-a
heavily taxed national bank note cur
rency which would be drawn forth at
times of unusual demand for money
and by reason of the tax be retired
Immediately upon the changed condi-
lions. Vanderlip had no advice to
offer. Comptroller of the Currency
Ridgely pointed out the necessity of
the governments supervision of nation
al banks. President Swinney of the
association reviewed it's growth and
development for the year
President Roosevelt was applauded
and thanked for his successful efforts
IN ND
Russia. The president received the
bankers and the ladies accompanying
them at the white house. There was
music and floral decorations, but no
speeches. The president shook the
hand of every one of the visitors and
extended his warmest greetings.
The program for the day was too
heavy for accomplishment and the
session, which began shortly after 10
o'clock and terminated only that the
delegates might get luncheon and
repair to the white house at 8, left
several matters of business to aug
ment the work of today At the meet
ings of delegates from several states
for the perfection of state organiza-
tons, Minnesota elected Donald S.
Culver of st. Paul to the nominating
committee, Joseph Chapman of Min
neapolis to the executive committee.
Iowa elected Arthur Reynolds of Des
Moines to the nominating committee.
The session today will include adj
dresses and discussions upon various
phases of banking. The bankers
were received at the Corcoran gallery
Of art last evening.
