nOCATELLO, Ida. Dec. 1.-The Po-
cotello Advance is out with state
ment that Fred 7. Dubois. has
again been INDUCING in one of his
fayorite pipe dreams about polya-
nous marriages having been perform
ed since the manifesto. This time the
gentleman of the occult proclivitles has
discovered, according to his statement
at least two cases in Bannock county
and these will be tho first of number
of similar ones To- occupy the attention
OF this champion of virtue" The
advance goes on to say. 1T IL not
stated who these men are and conse-
quontly there VIII be a great deal Of
conjecture as 1t Is not known here
If any are supposed even, TO be guilty,
although there have been from time
TO time those who have extended their
tongues to carry such scandal against
people in Pocatello.
Subsequent events have shown that
| these rumors have been nothing but
scandal and they have been dropped.
AT the present time 1t Is not known
that there IL anyone In Pocatello
against whom suspicion would lie. so
| that it Is quite likely that the prose-
cutiohs II any are made, will be made
against residents of the county out
| side Of Pocatello.
1T Is stated that the purpose OF the
prosecutions Is 10 assist in the move
ment at Washington to unseat Senator
| Smoot. It being evident that II Sena-
tor Dubois Is able to secure evidence
| showing that there have been poyga-
| nous marriages in Idaho. since the
manifesto. it will greatly assist In
| the removal OF Smoot. If this be the
| true idea 1t may be expected that the
| prosecutions will begin very soon.'
