WITNESSES FOR SMOOT
PLACED ON THE STAND
President of Brigham Young College at
Logan Acknowledges Belief in
Plural Marriage.

Washington, March 26.--Evidence in
rebuttal OF the last testimony taken in
the case against Senator Smoot, of
Utah, was presented to the senate
committee on privileges and elections
today. There were many vacant seats
and those occupied were held mostly
by intimate friends of the senator. The
first witness was Robert J. Shields, Of
Salt Lake City. general sales agent of
the Inland Crystal Salt company, the
president of which is Joseph F. Smith,
head of the Mormon church. Mr..
Shields is a Gentle, and never has
been a Mormon. He was recalled to
refute the testimony of c. A. Smurth-
waite, which was to the effect that the
Mormon church was so actively en-
gagged in the salt business as to gain q
control amounting to a Monopoly and
that he (SmUrthwaite) had been ex-
communicated because he would not
consent TO be driven out of business in
which he rivalled a church industry.
Refused to Buy.
The witness said Smurthwaite has
sent representatives and afterwards
called himself to Try to get the Inland
Crystal company to buy the Beck
salt company, in which Smurthwaite
had held the majority of stock. Mr.
Shields declined TO buy on the ground
that there were so many other con-
Germs in the field and that buying one
factory would not lessen tn COMPETE
ton. President Smith was not present
at any of these interviews aud took no
part in the management of the COM
pany.
Senator Dubois inquired concerning
the organization of the American
party to oppose the Mormon church.
and the witness said there would be
less strife between Mormons and Cen
tiles If there never had been such a
party.
Discharge of Wolfe.
Prof James H. Linford. president of
the Brigham Young college of Logan,
testified that Prof Walter NJ Wolfe
had not been dismissed from the col
legt and the church because of the
failure TO pay his tithing, as he had
said on the stand. The dismissal, said
he. had been because of continued in
toxication.
The witness said he was superintend-
ent Jof the college Sunday school and
\ heId a priesthood. He said that
America, Hail Columbia. THE
Star Spangled Banner and other
songs of patriotism were taught in the
Mormon primary classes. He said that
I'm the years he had been connected
with the college he had never heard
one of his students becoming a plural
wife.
On cross-examination, Mr.. Carlisle
brought out, through the Introduction
of the 1909 edition Of the Sunday school
Song book. that America" and The
Star Spangled Banner were added to
the book since the Mormon inVestiga-
ton was begun
Believes in Polygamy..
The witness was asked whether he
believed in pOlygamy, the principle of
plural marriage. He said that his be-
lief in the principle did not extend to
the practice of the principle under
present conditions.
THAT does not answer my question"
said Mr.. Carlisle
From d sociological point of view I
believe it would save many existing
difficulties" said the witness.
That is not an answer" said Mr..

EFFORTS to STOP
PRINTING WASTE
Lower House Passes Resolutions to
Prevent Useless Issuing of
Public Documents.

Washington, March 26.-Foliowing the
presidents suggestion, the house today
passed resolutions to correct the useless
printing of public documents and to en-
power the printing committees of the two
legislative bodies to fix the number of
documents to be printed and should the
demand arise for additional copies of q
publication then to have authority to or
der another edition, it was claimed this
section would result in saving the gov
ernment upward of S1,O00OOO annually.
Nearly the entire days was devoted to
District Of Columbia business.
The Notifications appropriations bill was
sent to conference. Mr.. Littauer of New
and gave notice that he would call it up
tomorrow.
The Printing Matter.
Mir. Landis of Indiana called up house
joint resolution affecting the printing of
public documents, empowering the gov
eminent printer to print more than one
edition of any pamphlet or document
should there be a demand for same.
Mr. Clapp of Missouri asked how much
this would save the government, to which
Mr.. Lands responded, 'One million dol
lars"
Mr. Lands said that while the meas
ure would not affect the present glut of
useless documents now stored in ware
houses throughout Washington, it would
prevent congestion. He cited as an in
ingS in the Swayne impeachment trial
when 10000 pamphlets were printed, about
:, 200 of which have been distributed.
Great Amount of Junk"
Mr.. Lands. further explaining the reso-
luton. said that 1.-The accumulated stock
Of junk in the warehouses of the CITY
would require two and a half miles of
trains to haul away" The resolution was
passed.
Bills were passed as follows:
Authorizing the construction of bridge
or bridges across the Yellowstone i'm
Montana by the Chicago. Milwaukee & St
Paul railroad; permitting the state of

Property Worth $4,000.

The property is valued q $4,000. and
IS the option taken by the committee
was to expire last evening il was neces-
sary for some one to take the property
in trust till the corporation could raise
the funds in some other way for the
purchase Only about thirty-eight
acres is under cultivation except that
portion in alfalfa. to which 100 acres
are planted. The immediate homestead
contains a small house suitable for the
superintendent, a large barn. chicken
house too. The purchase price includes
besides the land twenty-five head OF
cattle, some young calves. 200 chickens
and numerous farming indictments.
Tt is not the purpose of the associa-
ton to make the farm q place of pun
ishment for wrongdoers, or in any way
to supplant the work of either the
Morris school or the Ogden Industrial
school, but rather to make it a, perma-
nent home for friendleSs children. It
will not be in any sense a place for
correction, but will be rather for the
purpose of raising those children who
are made orphans either by death or
b. the intervention of the law OF such
children there have been numerous
cases in the city, and there are now
six homeless children in the Morris
school who are being cared for there
beyond the time allotted for them be-
cause there is no place to which they
can be sent.
