WHAT 1T WOULD BE.

wicked world is growing more and more
wicked. and 1t avows that only through
the domination over all the world OF
the gospel" as proclaimed by the Nor
mon prophets can society be saved.
Let us see what kind of a situation
would exist for humanity II the Nor
mon church ruled over all nations kin
dreds, tongues and peoples with Joseph
F. Smith as king. and Charles w. Pen
rose as chief scribe and pharisee of the
kingdom.
In the first place every human crea-
ture would be compelled to bow TO
Joseph F. Smith as q semi -diSlnity-or
be decapitated-for the ruler who, as
churchman, Will excommunicate an
honest man like Charles A. Smurth-
waite for a difference OF opinion, would
have the same Charles A. Smurthwaite
beheaded on the block II the tyrant
In the second place lying would be
exalted into a religion. The man who
was most skillful in avoiding the truth
would be extolled by Penrose as living
nearest to God
In the third place. all the men who
could be sent to war and slain or con
demned TO prison for pretended Of
fenses. or made to accept divorce from
their wives, would find their former
spouses taken into the holy keeping OF
the king and his fayorites-who have q
partlallty in this direction, as shown
by their records.
There would be no law but the whim
OF ignorance
There would be no justice but the de-
cree Of the tyrant.
There would be no individual human
right; for all would be merged into the
possession Of the monarch. and under
his suffcrance alone men, women and
children might live.
There would be no free speech except
to praise the king
No man would have a right In the
product of his own toll until the mon
arch and the monsrch's favorites and
families had been satisfied
The whole world would revert to the
most atrocious times OF the most saw

France in any political struggles for

the German attempt to hang the politi-

But this country has no interests that
way. and her vote should be against

commercial door
The United States takes part In this
congress as she has taken part in
others. We have treaties direct with
Morocco, the first In 1887 and another
twenty years later; we took part I'm a
convention as to Capt Spartei light

also regulated the property rights OF
Americans and other foreigners In Mo-

participated in by Spain Morocco,
France, Great Britain, Germany, Italy,
Austria. Belgium, Denmark. Holland
Portugal. Sweden, Norway and the
United States. 1t is therefore neces-
sary that we be represented at Alge-
