SHOOTS BRIEF is FILED FLOODS IN CALFORNIl
SAYS WITNESSES AGAINST HIM
WERE PROVEN UNWORTHY
OF BELIEF.
Contends Any State Has the Right to
Establish Religion IF It
Pleases.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 4.-The brief
of Attorney Worthingtoh. chief coun-
sci for Apostle Smoot, was sent to the
public printer today. It contends that
when Senator Smoot was sworn in, the
question of his qualifications was
passed on finally and that he can be
removed only by vote of expulsion
and on the ground that since nis cleo
ton he has committed some criminal
offense. This will require a two-thirds
vote. It declares that the witnesses
as to the oath of vengeance and the
endowment ceremony were all shown
to be unworthy Of bslief 1t contends
that there have been no plural mar
riages in Utah since the manifesto
with the exception of sporadic cases.
It concludes by insisting that while
the constitution of the United States
forbids the establishment Of ma
tional religion, any state is entirely
competent to establish a church if it
wishes and likewise that any relig-
ious association has the right to par
ticipate in political affairs.

QUESTION OF SITE UNDECIDED
Favorable Report on Bill for Home for
Defective Youth.

OLYMPIA, Feb. 4.-The senate
committee on state charitable insti-
tutions of which Senator C. G. Brown,
of Spokane, is chairman, has agreed
to favorably report the bill creating
a home for idiotic and waeak-minded
children and leave the location Of the
institution blank, to be fought out
on the floor of the senate. DR.. Brown
is practically the only member of the
committee who favors locating the
home at Medical Lake. The other
members favor Steilacoom, the seat of
the Western Washington hospital for
the insane. Out of courtesy to DR..
Brown, however, it was decided to
make no recommendation as to its To-
cation. The house committee has al
ready made a minority report favoring
Medical Lake. The committee in the
senate was addressed today by Senator
Bratt and Representatives j. B. Linds-
lev, Doolittle and Faucher, in behalf
of Medical Lake, and by DR.. N. J. Red
path of Olympia, and ex-Representa-
tive H. H. Easterday, of Tacoma, in
favor of Steilacoom.

WILL Need WISHES Of PARENTS

WASHINGTON, Feb. 4.-The presi-
dent today sent a letter to the sec
retary of the interior giving his views
respecting the granting of contracts
for the education of Indians In de-
ncminational schools. He said that
masmuch as legal authority exists to
grant the request of the Indians, they
were entitled as a matter of moral
right, to have the moneys due them
used for the education of their chill
dren at the schools of their choice.
But care should be taken to see that
the petitions are genuine. The prac-
tice will be continued by the depart
ment unless congress DEGREES to the
contrary or the courts decide that the
decision of the department of justice
is erroneous.
