THEIR DAILY OCCUPATION.

II is necessary to recur 60 the subject
Of religion classes and their being held
IN public schoolbulldIngs. Although the
objection which has been worked up IN
certain quarters against the occupation
OF district school buildings by these
classes after school hours, was not
anywhere even stated to be that they
were introduced into the schools, yet a
paper that is nothing II not mendacious
and malevolent, still endeayors TO con-
yey the impression that the protest has
been against the use OF the public
schools IN which to teach religion
classes" The attempt Is in keeping
with the whole course OF that paper
and is most shameful and contemplate.
1t is utterly false and vicious to
state, as It does, that the circular is
sued by the First Presidency Of the
Church declares that "the position OF
the Church on this matter has been
found unteuable;' and also that It d.
reefs that "the teaching Of religion
classes IN the public schools be dlscon-
tlnued" Reference to the circular
shows that II announces there has
been no intention to introduce religious
teaching in the public schools nor has
II been 80 introduced" Also that trp
Church authorities are "emphatlcally
opposed to UNCONVENTIONAL teaching in
the public schools"
The use Of school buildings after
school hours IN Some cases for religion
classes Is not declared "untenabe," but
IN accord with the law as defined by
the Attorney General OF the state,
They were utilized merely FOR convent
ence and 10 facilitate the as
semblng Of the classes" and
as matter Of fact they In
terfered in no way with the conduct
OF the public schools. 1t Is only a
deliberate attempt to deceive people
not acquainted with the matter, that
prompts the daily libellers to misrepre-
sent It IN this way
Simply for the sake Of peace, and
that there shall not be anything that
can give color Of objection to the re-
liglon classes, the First Presidency has
advised that those classes shall not In
any case be held In public school
buildings. They never have been held
IN the public schools. That is as well
known to the writer's OF the falsehoods
about them as to anyone, and II they
are not ashamed OF their craven and
crawling falschoods. 1t Is because they
have sunk too low IN journalistic corr
rupuon to sense their own depravlty.
They are to be as much pitled as des-
pissed.

great deal OF amusement. The resur-
rectlon OF their old protest as a new
document foIsted upon the committee
to do present and surreptltious duty Is
a fitting feature OF the entire protesting
proceedings.
The pretended anger at the testimony
OF reliable non-"Moimons" as to well
known facts, and the efforts TO intiml-
date others and hold them up to public
scorn, are all IN keeping with the policy
that has been pursued In the attack
upon Senator smoot, who in spite OF all
the utilization, religious bigotry mis-
representation abuse, distortions Of
fact and doctrine, the airing Of private
affairs, and peryerslons OF Church dis
clpline and principles, stands out head
and shoulders above his assailants, per-
sonaly, politically and as the chosen
of his party TO the highest place In

THREATENING CHINA.

The complaint Of Russia to the effect
that China has violated its pledges Of
neutrality, Is almost puerie. The note
to the powers states, that the island of
Miaotao, in the straits OF Pechlli, OPP
posIte Pert Arthur, have been con-
stantly used by the Japanese, without
Chinese interference, as n strateglcal
base and a harbor for Japanese tor
pedo boats. That the Chinese army
upon the border has accepted the COM
mand OF japanese officers, and that
Chinese firms have been constantly
working In behalf OF the japanese,
supplying them with provisions, mill
tary accoutrements and general war
stores. For these reasons, the powers
are told, Russia intends to use com
plete liberty OF action" IN regard to fu-
ture abuse Of neutrality
Tho latter announcement is tho only
important part OF the note. 1t evidently
means that, In case the war is to be
continued, Russia viii no longer re.
spect the neutrality OF China, but ex-
tend les military operations wherever
It's stratoglsts please, II means also
that In case OF ultimate Russian sue
cess, China may be held accountable
and made to pay IN territory probably,
heavy damages, Russian diplomacy
shows Itself as far-slghted as ever In
this, but It's effect may be TO drive
China still closer to Japan, The note
Is Furthermore, perhaps, an Indirect
intimotion to this country that the war
IN Asia is NO concern OF the United
Statea, IL was through the action
of our government that the agree
ment was made to respect China's neu-
trality The announcement that Rus
STA resumes liberty Of action" means
that that agreement Is now null and
void The note is omnous enough 1t
places the peace II the world in leo
pardy for the time being,
But otherwise the specified grounds
OF complaint are not worthy Of consl-
deration. Ic Japan has used a Chinese
island outside OF Port Arthur for an,
chorage, etc., Russia has used number
Of neutral ports Tor her Baltic squad

POVERTY IN THIS COUNTRY.

The statement that there is in this
country about ten million persons who
are suffering from a state Of acute pow
erty, IL startling. 1t II made by Mr.
Robert Hunter, a student OF social con-
dltlons. 1t would mean that about
one.elghth OF the entire population Is
poor" That is to say, as he defines
poverty, one-eighth OF the American
population are either dependent on
charity. or are barely able to obtain
enough to sustain life, but not enough
to maintain physical efficiency That
Is startling revelation concerning one
OF the most wealthy nations on earth,
Nj Hunter points out that very
large proportion Of the working class
es are propertyless; very large mass
Of people, not only IN our largest cities,
but IN all Industrial communities AZ
well, live In most insanitary condi-
lions; there Is IA high death-rate from
tuberculosis In most Of our States
large proportion Of the unskiled work.
ors receive, even when employed, wages
insufficient TO obtain the necessares
for maintaining physical efficiency;
from all indications, the number in
jured and killed IN dangerous trades
Is enormous; and, lastly, there is UNI
: certainty Of employment for all classes
OF workers. About 80 per cent OF the
workers In the Industrial States are
employed only q part OF each year. ana,
in consequence, suffer serious de-
crease In their yearly wages which, in
the case Of the unsklled at leastmeans
20 suffer poverty
II is not contended that poverty is
In this country as widely felt as In
some other countries, But It should
not be, with the immense opportunities
here offered And God forbid that the
day should ever come, when poverty Is
the common lot Of the American work.

ginning Of anarchy. Agitators would

The lodgepole pine, which is known
in the Sierras Of California as tama-
rack pine, and in Colorado and Mon
tana is sometimes called white pine,
jack pine, piryon, and scrub pine,
bears the common name of "lodgepole'
from the fact that the Indians used its
long slender trunks as supports for
their wigwams or lodges. Its geo.
graphical range is along the Rocky
mountains from Alaska to New Mex.
leo and westward to the Pacific coast.
In the United States 1t is found in
merchantable quantity and dimensions
on the spurs and eastern slopes of the
Rocky mountains throughout southern
Montana, Wyoming and Colorado, in
the Bitter Root mountains of Idaho,
the Ulintah range Of Utah and in the
Big Horn mountains of Wyoming. The
Bureau of Forestry is studying the spe-
cies throughout this range of its best
commercial distribution.
Lodgepole pine grows at all alti-
tudes between 1900 and 10000 feet

mountainous country south and east of
Yellowstone Park it reaches its largest
size at elevations between $500 and

spreading, 1t is somewhat difficult to
keep 1t within prescribed limits.
Dreaming Of 1t was held by the an

To dream of it when withered indi-
Gates, failure in love.
The box, which happily has returned
to fashions favor for bordering paths,
may well be used in a romantic gar
den, since 1t means long life, while
arguing well for love affairs,
No distinct line need be drawn be-
tween the dream plants of a roman
tic garden and those which fill the
love charm corner, many being asso-
ciated with both ideas.
The thistle, while one Of the most
lucky of dream omens, has also been
used by rustic maidens for testing the
affection Of possible lovers. Cutting
the points from three or four downy
heads, the maiden assigns to each a
name. Then on the morrow the one
which has put forth sprout is be-
lieved to bear the name of him she
will marry.
In this love charm part Of the gar
den the pansy may claim place as the
border plant. Oberon, in a Midsum-
mer's Night Dream, told Puck to put
over the eyes Of Titania pansy, so
that when on awakening she might fall
In love with the first object she espied.
The Crocus is also among the early
spring flowers reputed to inspire love.
An acre could readily be planted as
garden of romance, so abundantly
has legendary lore been transmitted
by flowers. Indeed, such a one,
wherein each plant tells its own story,
might prove to many refreshing IA this
day, when most gardens have q tone
Of terse reality.-New York Herald.
