046,7 10 in 1000, as compared with
2,235,526 in 1890 and 1,591,74e
in 1880. In twenty years the state
nearly doubled its population, but
the increase was greater in the last
than the preceding decade. For the
decade ending with 1910 the in
crease in population will exceed
one million without any special eff
fort. With the impetus that might
be given by Col. Kirby's proposed
Five Million Club the FIVE million
mark might easily be reached by

Cotton Is King.

Cotton is king in the export re-
cord of the United States for the
fiscal year just ended.
This is the Introductory sentence
of statement just issued by the
Department of Commerce and La
Dor. Continuing, the same state
ment says: The total value of raw
cotton exported for the first time
crossed the $500, 900, 900 line and
exceeded by far the value of any
other article of merchandise sent
out of the country. The exports
of breadstuffs of all kinds aggrega-
ed but S186, 900. 900, those of pro-
visions but 900, 900 and those
of iron and steel manufactures but
S161, OO0,O
The value of cotton exported
during the last FIVE years increased
very rapidly. 1t was not until 1901
that it crossed the $500, 900, 900
line, and in a short five years
period it has grown to more than
$500, 900, 900 or an increase of 80
per cent. This growth is due in
part to an increase in the quantity
exported, but III part also to an
advance in price, since the quaint
ty exported in 1906 was about
700, 100000 pounds less than in
1905, while the value was S21, OOO,-
900 more than in 1905.
The expectation of nanufac-
tured cotton was also larger in 1906
than in any earlier year, aggregat-
ing $50, 100000 against $4,000,
900 in 1905 and S22, 10000 in
1904. The growth in exports of
cotton has been as
striking as that of the raw mate
rial. Farm and Ranch.

The report printed in Salt Lake
to the effect that a sharp con-
flict exists between the president and
the Utah delegation over Senator Suth-
erland's amendment to the Indian bill
relative to water rights in Uintah re-
serve, is erroneous. The president has
not indicated to any member of the
Utah delegation that he is opposed to
the amendment. He has not spoken
to Senator Sutherland at all on the
subject and the only reference made
to it between the president an
Senator Smoot was when the for
mer in a casual remark to tn
latter said that he hoped Congress
would protect the Indians in their
rights. The Sutherland amendment is
in as reported, and will remain there
The publication of story of a con-
troversy is in line with several such
publications apparently designed for
the purpose of creating the impression
that misunderstanding is existing
between the president and the Utah
delegation. The fact is that there is
no delegation in Congress whose rela-
lions with the White House exceed in
cordially those between the president
on the one hand and Messrs. Suther-
land, Smoot and Howell on the other.

OBJECTS TO SENATOR DUBOIS
STRUCTURES ON MORMONS.

The report of the committee on
privileges and elections in the
Smoot case will be made to the
senate about April Is. The case
years. In fact, final arrangements by
counsel were made in January, 1905,
but for some reason the chairman of
the committee, Senator Burrows, de-
sired to extend into another Congress
and his way prevailed. No one in
Washington who has followed the case
believes that Senator Smoot will be
unSeated.
But three members of the commit
tee attended the closing hearings last
week, Senator Burrows, Senator Du-
bois and Senator Frazier of Tonnes
see. The latter attended one morning
session and did not appear afterwards.
1t is doubtful if any objection would
ever have been made to the seating
of Smoot If the statement had not
been circulated at the time of his
election that he was polygamist.
This idea gained widespread currency
and probably is still believed by
many of the women's organizations OF
the country who have filed petitions
bearing thousands of signatures pro-
testing against the retention of the
Utah Senator. 1t was believed by
these organizations that this case was
a parallel for that of Brigham Rob-
erts, who was elected to Congress
from Utah, but was not allowed to
take his seat because it was alleged
that he was polygamist.
No well-informed person in Utah
has ever believed that Smoot was a
polygamist; nor was it charged there.
The charge that he was a polygamist
emanated from Utah, however, and it
was Systematically worked up from
that end. Some of the best women
in the country have been used as in
struments to advance the political
fortunes of former Senator Thomas
Kearns of Utah by keeping alive the
agitation of the Smoot case.
