Governor Pennypacker has called
the Pennsylvania legislature together
for the purpose of effecting some re-
forms decreed at the ballot box. Last
winter when this same body was in
session it was necessary to telegraph
to an absent leader in Florida to pre-

Word came back and the bill was
killed. Now some optimists expect
the members will act on their own

nothing in the ceremony which
would affect his loyalty to his coun-

any character when he became coun-

apostle.
Senator Smoot asserted that the
Mormon church was not a factor in
his candidacy for the senate. and de-

influence or dictate to him in poll

presidency "a leave of absence" be-

would not permit the president OF
