"REFUTINa" BURROWS.

When the United States Supreme
Court upheld the Congressional statut,
against polygamy. the Deseret News
gave long and ''inspired = refutatior
Of that decision. Still. it is even YET
that decision, and not the absurd "refu'
tation' that stands
Ever since, the News from time 10

customs, and even civilization itself
| But those rcfuiations only serve "a

the time American institutions arc
gradually working in apd displacing the
barren notions and pucrilc conceptions
of tho church scribcs
It's present attitude toward the tire.
mcndous speech delivered by Senator
Burrows in the Smoot case is typical
Of its attitude throughout, toward
American civilization md progress, It
thinks that bald denial of facts. a
claim that the Senator "crred' in one
resnect or another. when every point
of his speech is amply sustained by un.
questionable testimony, is sufficient but
no person OF sound mind and the least
uprightness Of character can for mo-
ment concedc that the News makes the
least impression upon Senator Bur

any portion of il,
Another Smoot agency here is also
fatuous in its childish pcrversity It
objects 10 Senator Burrows 8 speech be-
cause It contains points made hereto
fore by The Tribune. ignoring the
plninly evident truth of those points,
proved over and over again. But its
chief point is reserved for the final
'clincher, 10 wit, that the very ones
who are now so strongly opposing
Smoot were active in favor Of his ecc-
tion; and this is urged as a conclusive
reason why Apostle Smoot should retain
the Senatorial seat. Even if this were
true, II would have no bearing what
ever on the case, for it makes no pos
slble difference to the Senate who fs-
vored Smoot or who opposed him in his
election, so far as Gentiles are con
cerned. But i, is not in the least true.
There was a steady, deep-felt opposition
all along 70 Smoot s election to the Sen
ate. The Tribune cditorialy opposed it,
during the campaign prior to the cleo
tion of the Legislature Of 1908. aud
after its election, prior to its choice of
Smoot, and after that choice. 1t is an
utterly dishonest and contemplate plea
TO state a lie as a fact, and 10 urge
that therefore the desired point is made.
But that is the inevitable recourse of
the hierarchic scribes and pharisees;
without it they would suffer from an
absolute paralysis Of defense

Assessment Total in Polk County
This Year VIII Exceed Eight
Million Dollars.

The assessed value of taxable
property in Polk county this year will
exceed eight million dollars. The
assessment rolls are not finished, but
the work has progressed far enough
to make it clear that the total amount
of taxable property will be between
$8,74O,OOO and $s,75O,OOO. The total
taxable property last year amounted
to $4,035,00
The increased valuation this year
was made by Assessor Graves in
accordance with the agreement Of the
assessors Of the several counties to
bring all classes Of property nearer to
cash value. The recent decision Of
the Supreme Court declaring the
homestead exemption law unconstitu-
tional will add several hundred
thousand dollars to Assessor Graves
original assessment.

Smith next Monday and correct any
errors in valuation or description OF
property that may have been made in
the assessment Of property or prepara-
tion of the tax roll.
