SMITH CHANGES MIND.
Head of the Mormon Church Says This
Time He Does Get
Revelations.

Salt Lake City. Utah, March. 20.
Joseph Il. Smith. president of the Nor
mon church. today in AN address in the
tabernacle modified his statement i'm the
senate investigation ut Washington to-
the effect that he had received no revel-
ations from God. President Smith to-
day is quoted rs saying:
I'm Washington ] refused to saw
what my inquisitors wanted me to say
in order to get me into a trap-that is.
To say that God had given me II reveIa-
ton on some new law or precept, when
was to be included and put into the
laws of the church. Did you ever heal.
God? No. no man ever heard me say
this. When | Was first baptized as
q child God revealed To me tina Joseph
smith was Il prophet of God, raised
up by the power of the almighty. He
revealed TO me i'm terR@ in~controvertible
That Brigham Young succeeded lawfully
To the presidency OF the church by the
Wili of the almighty: he revealed 10
me that john TaNlor was the divine
successor of Brigham Young: that VIII
ford Woodruff was the ivine successor
of john Taylor; that Lorenzo Snow
was the divine successor of Milford
Woodruff.
Il leave it to YOU to say whether it is
right and Lawful for me to be in this
position. ! ~fervently believe that Coo,
has made manifest to me man glorious
things, and much more wisdom than is
inherent in myself. and will continue to
do so as long as / am ready to listen

MAINE A DRY STATE.
New Law Results in All Liquor Being
Sent Out of the State to Avoid
Confiscatjon

Portland, Me-, March 22.-The night
express train and the boat for Boston
tonight carried back $500. 900 worth of
liquor which the dealers in Maine
feared would be confiscated because
of he crusade that began this week.
Five car loads of liquor comprised the
consignment by railroad and fully as
much was sent by boat.
The legislature. which adjourned yes

Sturgis law, which clothes the COVER

Police System Elaborate.
Under it there becomes three police
systems: First, the police system of
the municipality: second. the police
system of the county, headed by the
sheriff. n third. the police system of
the state. headed by his excellency the
governor.
There are already t~wenty-six appli-
sion. fourteen of whom are listed with
letters of recommendation in the exec

of the latter has begun a crusade
against the dealers, and in every coun-
ty a score oe raids and seizures has
been made within two days.
Liquor Sent Out of State.
The result is hat all the hotel men
and liquor dealers have become
alarmed and shipped their entire stock
out of the state. most of it going back
to Boston wholesalers, from whom it
was purchased.
Maine tomorrow will be thoroughly
.dry-the dryest state i'm the union. AL

lature to pass a resubmission bill, and
if it is ever put up to the people
again, the opponents of prohibition de-

No One to Blame.


Boston. March 22.--.A crack in tn.
lapseam of the boiler was responsible
for the accident said an expert ensi-
neer of the Hartford Steam Inspection
and Insurance company. 1T VAS
practically Impossible to detect the
crack said he. las it was on the in
side part of the lap. running beside
the rivets. The continued heating of
the boiler tends to make the fiat part
round like the rest of the boiler, caus-
ing a strain on the inside of the seam.
This frequently causes Il crack which
is not possible to detect until 1T de-
velops. 1t was one of thoes accidents
for which no one is to blame. An in
ternal inspection of this boiler was
made December 2S last. and an ex-
ternal inspection February 80. The
boiler was to be in good condition and
fully equipped with all the necessary
applianceS.'

city. o. p. Smith. state labor organ
izer, aroused the enthusiasm of his
hearers tn a high pitch by declaring
that the japanese generals. Oyama and
still bore the original Irish names of
their families slightly changed.
"Oydma is of Irish ancestry" said
Smith. and his name. as originally
borne by his ~forefathers. was O'Yama.
The original O'Yama. whose given
name was Patrick. left Ireland during
the ~Elizabethan era for France. but
was shipwrecked in the Bay of Biscay
rescued by a Spanish ship bound
for The Philippines. He was taken
there and cast adr'ft. His descendants
vent to Japan and turned naturally
to the career of lighting men. Inter
marriage with the natives gave them
standing and position close to the mi
kado. which was advanced by their ac-
tivity in military affairs.
General Oku's name originally was
o'keoush. who. though a military
genius. was a poor hand at spelling.
The rigors of the Japanese alphabet
proved too great for him. and by i'm
perial edict he was given permission
to cut out a few letters. Thus the
family name became Oku. and the sons
and grandsons for many generations

1t is established beyond doubt that
during the last half of the nineteenth
century there vas an important lengthen-

improvement in living and the advance
ment in medicine. 1t was during that

became the recognized leader among
remedies to cure poor appetite, sour
stomach, cramps diarrhea. indigestion,

TINE RECIPROCITY CONFERENCE.

Chicago is glad to welcome the
nen who are now gathering in the
city to attend the sessions of the
reciprocity conference which be-
gin tomorrow. Not only Chicago,
but the whole country will watch
closely what is to be said and
done. The peace conference at
Portsmouth is easily first in spec
tacular character, but the reci-
procity conference has a much
more vital and immediate bearing
on the welfare of American citi-
zens.
The agricultural interests of the
west, mercantile interests of both
east and west, and manufacturing
interests in many special lines
have now come to a point where
they feel that our present tariff
system is going to infIct on them
concrete and visible harm. They
demand sufficient modification of
that system to prevent themsfrom'
becoming its victims. They want
to see foreign markets for their
products widening instead of mar
rowing. They are not setting
themselves against protection.
Rather protection is the very
thing they seek. They seek it,
however, not on the principle that
the higher the tariff the more
complete the protection, but in
stead on the principle that duties
must be skilfully adapted to mar.
kets.
We shall learn from the con.
ference the extent of the evil:
that are feared, and we shall heal
many suggestions as to the par
ticular methods to be- adopted ii
finding a remedy. The impetus
given to the movement by thu
conference should make it certain
that Congress will give the who'll
subject a thorough consideration
