Why Smoot Should Be Rejected

that his declaration of hostility was sin
Cerc on the contrary the following full
some praise OF President Smith was de-
livercd by him last october In an address
before the seventy-siXth annual confer
cnce OF the Mormon church. 1t appears in
the Descrct News the official organ OF
that church:
II believe that the Datter-day Saints,
who have the spirit OF God In them, never
had more confidence in man or a set
Of men than they have In the presidency
OF the church today. | wish that every
one could read the heart and understand
the thoughts OF the presidency. and all
others who are trying, In their humble
way to lead and direct the affairs of this
people. | feel that II 1t were possible for
YOU to- do so. you would not only love
them as you have in the past, but you
would have for them still greater love-
That expression of confidence and love,
II must be remembered, was given TO
man who at that time was living with
his Iawlessness and shameful violation of
solemn pledges given by his church when
Utah was admitted into the Union.
The whole history Of the Mormon
church proves that the ruling powers Of
that orgunlZatien-the hierarchy-arc not
loyal to tho United States Government
when the laws of their church and the
laws of the Government conflict In short,
they put the church In It's relations with
society above the State. II is further sus-
ceptiblc to proof that the hierarchy con-
trolls the political action of tho member
ship, and that the votes of the members
nrc determined by the VIII of the body OF
which Reed Smoot is a member
These considerations are sufficient to
mstify his exclusion from the Senate

The Reed Smoot case is still hanging
fire III the Senate. but the pressure of
public sentiment upon that body for action
is steadily accommodating and the question
VIII soon have TO be settled one way OF
the other There are memorials now on
file I'm the Senate containing the names OF
hundreds of thousands Of citizens asking
for Smoot's rejection.
1t is well 10 recognize the exact status
of this case 10 form fair and Intelligent
judgment ON IL In the first place SmoOt
should not be rejected simply because he
is n Mormon. a mans religion should
not be made n test OF citizenship or OF
political advancement In the second place
Smoot is not a polygam.st The most
thorough Inquiry as to that has been
II ade and there is no doubt that he ls the
husband OF one wife only and has not
personally violated the law against plural
marriage. In the third place, Smoot Is
unobtectionable as 10 his manners. speech
and habits. Personally IL Is said. he Is
an agreeable gentleman to meet. man
OF good intelligence and education.
Why, then, should he not be permitted
to taltc his seat In the Senate? He has
been duly elected and commissioned to
that place by the State of Utah, and
unless there are grave objections II Is
just neither TO him nor TO the State which
cent him to Washington TO keep him out
Of the Senate.
The objection, as We have seen. is not
on the surface. No doubt thousands have
signed tlc TgTnODStTllGtS DtlltNluB uIl
to be a polygamist. Many others would
have him excluded simply because he is
a Mormon; but neither OF these objections
Is legitimate.
Smoot should be rejected mainly be-
cause he ls a member Of the Mormon HE
rsrchy. n body OF Mormon officials which
controls the relations of Mormon bclicN-
ers 10 the State and TO society, and which
in many ways has shown, and is showing,
its hostility to the Government and some
of the most cherished institutions OF this
country.
The main Indictment against the hie-
rarChy Is It's defiant attitude on the sub
ject OF polygamy 1t has been shown that
many Mormons. including the president
ruling coterie both practice and defend
plural marriage. President Smith is open

He and others have declared before a
| committee OF the Senate that they pro-
pose to continue their unlawful and de,
moralizing relations with their plural
! households.
Now how Is Smoot connected with

| and deccncy? Not as we have seen, by
| personal Indulgence, but by the closest
| official relations with those who are per
sonaIly guilty. He Is an apostle AS

kExALL "95" liAIR TONIC

The famous Rcxall "o3' Hair
Tonic is composed in chief of
Resorcin, Beta Naphthol and
Pilocarpin.
Rcsorcin is one of the latest
and most effective gcrm-killers
discovered by science, and in
connection with Beta Naphthol,
which is both germicidal and
antiseptic, combination is
formed which not only destroys
the germs which rob the hair Of
its nutrlmcnt, but creates a
clean and healthy condition of
the scalp, which prevents the
lodgment and development Of
new germs.
Pilocarpin is a well-known
agent for restoring the hair to
its natural color, where the loss
Of color has been due to a dis
case of the scalp. 1t is not a
coloring matter or dye-it pro-
duces its effect by stimulating
the scalp and hair follicles to
health and active life.
This com bination of cur
ativcs mixed with alcohol as d
stinulant, pcrfects the most ef-
fective remedy for h air and
scalp troubles known to-day.

RSXklL DYSPEPSIA TABLETS

hcAkLL DYSPEPSIA TABLETS
The remarkable success Of
Rexall Dyspepsia Tablets is
largely due to the new and sue
ccssful method OF manufacture,
whereby the we'll known prop.
critics Of Bismuth Subnitratc
and Pepsin have been combined
with carminitives and o tn cr
agents.
Bismuth Subnitrate and Pep
sin are recognized by the entire
medical profession as specifics
for acute indigestion or chronic
dyspepsia.
The PePsin used is manufac-
tured under a new process S
which develops its greatest cf-
fciency. Pepsin not only sup
plies to the digestive machinery
one of the most important ele-
ments of the digestive fluid, but
1t seems to exert a tonic lntiu-
ence upon the glands which
supply all the other elements.
The carminitives add prop
critics which promptly relieve
pains caused by undigested food.
The combination of the whole
makes a remedy absolutely in
valuable to any man or woman

building and stimulating h e

wonderful people," said DIR. Moses En-

SEA SERPENT DESCRIBED.
Lives Along Tonquin Coast and Has
Mustache.

From the British Medical Journal.
DR.. Raphael Blanchard. professor of the
medical faculty of the University of Paris
cine, has been going into the question of
the sea serpent and now finds himself
in position not only to describe the mon
ster but to give portrait of him. He
has a head and body like a seal but with
an immensely long tail and very long
and flexible neck. lie is also ornamented
with a fine mustache, and he is believed
to have a name. though this does not
appear to be quite certain.
DR.. Blanchard holds that the existence
of the great serpent Is beyond all doubt.
He has been seen several times In the
Bay of ALONG. In 1904 he was seen by
Lieutenant Lagresile of the French
navy commanding the Avalanche, and
again by Lieutenant Cost commanding
the gunboat Decidee.
The latter officers account Is remark
able for the precision Of its details. The
length of the serpent which he saw was
at least twenty metres 1t had large
dorsal fin and a head like a seals. bat
much shorter. is skin was so tough that
shells burst on It's surface apparently
without more effect than tickling the
dome of ST Paul's would have on the
Dean and Chapter DR.. blanchard notes
that 1t is on the coast of Tonquin that
the serpent seems chiefly to show Itself,
and calls on the Cochin China government
to organize an expedition to capture the
monster.
It is a curious fact that in village
on the coast of the Bay of ALONG a
stuffed serpent is kept by the natives.

the early Ptolemies, or to the third cen-
fury b. c., while others are of the Byzan-
tine era. lesser source of supply has
been found in the padding and wrapping
of mummies, for which inscribed papyrt
were often used especially in the Fayum.
THE significance of these documents
for our knowledge of antiquity, in the
largest sense of the word, cannot be over
rated. They mean resuscitation for us
of large and hitherto unknown part of
the life of the ancients. Here are some of
the subjects treated in recent acqus-
ton of these documents The language is
Greek:
"A proclamation edict of a project
concerning archives; military accounts
commissariat; report of "A public physi
clan; account of the default of treasury
official; repair of public buildings; street
repairs; report of public meeting; search
for a criminal: warrant for arrest; regis
tration of Il slave; emancipation of
slave; receipt for tax on beer.
A rather lurid light is thrown on the
conditions of the period by a so-called
'libellus,' or affidavit of having performed
the required sacrifices. in the presence of
commissioners appointed for the purpose,
by an old man suspected of being a Chris
tian. during the persecution of Christians
by the Emperor Decius
Turning to domestic relations, here you
see monthly meat bill of cook; an in
vitation to dinner; an invitation to a we'd
ding; reputation of n betrothal. letter
concerning a professional rat catcher;
complaint against a husband; complaint
against a wife; a deed of divorce, etc.
Lots of material for newspaper, but 1900
years old"
So
