There may be trouble with the Nor
mons in Utah but Vermont will never
be troubled with a Mormon problam
any more than it will with the negro
problem.-SGa nton Courier.
The above statement may be and
we hope is true, but thespast history
of the Mormons tells us that trouble
has arisen between them and the
common, law-aoiding citiz sns of every
state and community in which they
have taken up their abode. The
question is, will they gradually make
Vermont place of refuge as they are
driven from their quarters in Utah
and Idaho whsre the light is being
turned in upon their shameful con-
duct? If they do Vermont will as
surely see trouble from them as has
every other locality of their habita-
ton.

this office has alternated between the

A gentleman from Japan is in Paris
writing for the magazines, and he ad.
vises the courts and camps of Europe
that even the British navy, powerful
as it is, must some day weigh anchor
and sail away from the Far East; and
he intimates, declares the Washington
Post, that the day for that consumma.
ton is much nearer than the average
thinker can easily imagine. The in
ference also is that France, Germany
and the United States will all be served
with tickets of leave long before Eng
land is dealt with. OF course, Japan
valiant and puissant as she is. cannot
do these things without assistance
and there is nobody to help her but
China. AS for the Chinaman, be will
have to be made over, and made OF
different stuff, before he will be fit foI
anything in a fight. He is without
valor and he is without patriotism. two
qualities he must acquire before any
European nation will pay attention to
his orders to depart.

Dowie Makes Answer.

Chicago. Attorneys for John Alex
ander Dowie filed an answer in the
Federal Court in the receivershiE
proceedings brought against Dowie
some time ago. In the answer Dowie
denied that he would be insolvent if
all his properties were restored to him
Extended legal arguments followed
the filing Of the answer. Judge Lam
dis, before whom the arguments were
made finally y entered an order direct
ing the attorneys to leave the matter
alone, saying that he would settle ii
himself. He directed that no further
proceedings be taken by the attorneys
Of Voliva looking to the dissolution
of the injunction granted some time
ago by virtue Of which Voliva was
compelled to allow Dowie to use his
tabernacle in Zion City on alternate
days. The attorneys for Voliva de-
clared that later they would make ap-
plication for the appointment of con
servator to take charge of the Zion
City properties until the dispute be-
tween the Dowie and Voliva factions
had been settled in court.

ball players have recently beaten West

team of full-blooded Indian girls from

Ichool have, in playing that game,
taken a long string Of feminine scalps
from the girls of white universities {

ability to the new conditions which
