piring to the highest offices in the

Ned Buntline made a hero of Buff
falo Bill in his many novelistic stories,
written several years ago. To the
readers of Buntline's fiction Buffalo
Bill was rescuer of womanhood,
chivalrous knight, Johnny n-the-spot
whenever the honor of female was at
stake He was portrayed as man
who would be a safe custodian of in
nocence and all that sort of thing. But
the testimony of John w. Claire of
Brooklyn, N. Y, in the divorce case
now pending at North Platte, in which
the erstwhie scout is plaintiff, shows
that Bill was in love with Bessie Is
that Bill was in love with Bessie Is
bell, his lady press agent; that he had
rooms next to hers; that he was con-
stantly with her and that whenever
he called Bessie wore ldmona. Bill
has pleaded that his affection for Bes-
sic was of purely platonic character,
but so far as we have read Plato We
have never encountered any such Sit
uations as portrayed and never saw a
place where the ancient writer men
toned kimona.
Ex-senator Frank J. Cannon, now
editor of the Salt Lake Tribune, has
been communicated from the Nor
mon church, the church of his fathers,
Holding such views regarding the
church and its head as Mr.. Cannon has
expressed since the American" party
bought him, the wonder is that he
did not voluntarily leave the church
; without waiting to be excommunicat-
ed. He must have expected expulsion
for no organization or society would
keep a member who acted toward it
as Mr.. Cannon has towards his
church, and few men would want to
belong to any organization which they
held in such contempt as Mr.. Cannon
has expressed for his church. The
action in communicating Mr.. Can
non should, it seems to us, meet the
approval of all the parties concerned.
1t will now be in order for Mr.. Can
non to start church of his own with
! himself as prophet, seer and revelator,
the present head of the Mormon
church, it appears, does not come up
to Mr.. Cannon's standard as a proph-
ct; in fact, it is doubtful if the church
has had a prophet that Mr. Cannon
approved Of since the Cannon family
ceased to rule the church and it's fin
. ances. Nobody connected with Truth
claims to be either a prophet or the
son of a prophet, but Truth, never
theless, will venture the prediction

This is the way the Butte News
sizes up the situation:
Replying to the bitter attack made
on the Mormons in the United States
senate the other day by Senator
Thomas Kearns, who represents the
anti-Smoot Republicans of Utah, the
Deseret News, the official Mormon or
gan, has some pretty hard things to
say of Kearns.
1T is a notorius fact that Kearns
had nothing against the Mormons as
long as they aided his political for
tuens and in this connection the Des-
eret News says:
"'There is no man living who tried
harder and more repeatedly to gain
the ear and influence of the president
of the Mormon church, in order to
reach the political office and gain re-
election to the senate than Kearns.
"In other words, Mr.. Kearns liked
|
liked him."
| 1t is a great pity the case of Sen
ator Smoot was not decided before
the senate adjourned. 1t will now
probably drag along for almost an
other year, and the agitation will be
kept up to the great detriment of the
state.
| These internecine quarrels, which
have been characteristic of Utah for
so long and which for the past two
years have been waged with renewed
bitterness, after period of compare
tive quiet, work inestimable in
ing therein. This is regretable, es-
pecially as there Is now no reasonable
excuse for their existence. 1t is a
fact, however, that they do exist. 1t is
a fact that they not only keep desir-
able residents away from the state,
but cause many good citizen to move
away. They are the direct cause of
stagnation in business, of keeping
away outside capital, which otherwise
would come and assist in the develop
ment of the resources of the state
"A house divided against itself can.
not stand" This continual quarrelling
hurts business, hurts every industry in
the state and we shall have no real
progress until it is stopped.
Now that Thomas Kearns has
stepped down and out of public life,
Truth has done with him. He is once
more a private citizen and as long as
he remains in that capacity Truth has
no concern with him. This paper ac-
complished the thing it set out to do
about three years ago, that was to
show Senator Kearns in his true light
and prevent his reelection to the
United States senate. One disgrace of
that kind is enough for this century
In its crusade Truth, among all the
papers in the state, stood alone. Soon
after Mr.. Kearns was elected senator

w. j. Bobna, of Butte, has obtained
q divorce from his wife. While Bobna
is unknown to fame, the grounds Of
action entitle him to notice. His wife
left him, taking all of his money;
about $1,000 and the two children. She
left a note saying one of the kids was
not Bobna's and for that reason the
court granted the divorce.
The Commercial club has scored
several points by. obtaining sub

and the club is to be congratulated on
the outcome of its efforts.

The Salt Lake Tribune is for sale,
but there is n paucity of buyers. A
scheme of the owner is to make it so
warm for the Mormon church that the
church will be compelled to buy the
sheet at whatever figure the ex-sen-
ator places it. The ex-senator has
a white elephant on his hands and
from all appearances he will not very
suddenly be relieved of it.

Niagara Falls, August 1.-THE
volume Of water being diverted
from the historic Niagara Falls is
reaching such proportions that the
people of the State are trying to pass
laws which will prevent the possible
ity Of n practical wiplng out OF this
sublime natural spectacle.
Water sufficient TO develop nearly
five hundred thousand horsepower
continuously, twenty-four hours per
day, for industrial purposes, is now
being taken from the river above the
Falls, and further developments re-
quiring more water are contemplated.
Probably the largest user of the
electricity produced by the waters of
the mighty river is the concern which
by the five or six thousand degree
heat OF the electric furnace brings
lime and coke into unwilling union,
thereby producing what is known as
Calcium Carbide.
Dry calcium carbide is lifeless as
so much broken rock. but in contact
with water It springs into activity and

from the ordinary barn Of the farmer
to the country villa of the wealthy, as

FEAR FOR NIAGARA CONFERENCE BUILDING
WHERE PEACE ENJOYS MEET.
Elaborate Preparations Made at Ports
. mouth, N. H.-Naval Stores Build
inq Remodelcd for Conference.

Portsmouth N. H., Aug. 6.-After
day of activity in the navy yard the
finishing touches in preparation for
the peace conference were made late
this afternoon and everything Is now
In readiness both in the inside and the
outside of the large new naval stores
building where the plenipotentiaries
are to be received and where they are
to hold daily sessions.
The second story of the building is
to be occupied by the peace mission.
The conference room is in the center
of the building over the main en-
trance. Adjoining 1t Is suite oil
three spacious rooms which have been
assigned to the japanese ENJOYS. On
the other side is reception room deti.
Gated to the representatives OF tae
United States government. Beyond
this Is n suite of three rooms for the
use of the Russian mission.
On either side Of the corridor which
divides the building are large dining
rooms, where midday luncheons will
be served separately to the respective
missions, and in the eastern dining
room Admiral Mead, commandant OF
the navy yard, will serve banquet 10
the ENJOYS, their suites and about
sixty invited guests on their arrival.
Two fireproof rooms have been fitted
up for the storage of documents.
The conference room Is imposingiy
furnished. A mammoth table in the
center is surrounded by huge chairs
beautifully upholstered in black
leather. On the floor is costly Rus
sian rug. At either end OF the room
are mahogany tables adopted for cler-
ical work. The walls of the room are
draped with flags used by the navy in
making the international code signals.

all the rooms and are the only decora-
tions. Handsome desks. chairs and Ia
bles make all Of the rooms appear IN
elegant dignity. Persian rugs are laid
upon the floors.
It cost the United States govern
ment $4,000 to equip the quarters for
the conference. Without the building
all appearance of newness has been
removed. The borders of the newly
( laid cement walk have been sodded
and the gravel walk leading To the
