FRANCE FACES CRISIS
Catholics Are Likely to Arise in Re-
bellion That Is Open.

PARIS, Dec. 10.-France tonight
seems to face an alarming religious
crisis Last night reports OF the
Pope's eleventh hour rejection OF the
government final proffer under which
Catholic worship could be continued
under the common law turns out to
be only too true, and the deadlock now
is apparently complete. According to
the Holy Fathers orders. declarations
under the law of 1881 are prohibited,
but the parish priests must remain in
their churches until driven out by vio-
lence.
The official confirmation of this re-
port has created a sensation, both in
government and Catholic circles. Car
dinal Lecot. Archbishop of Bordeaux,
Archbishop Germain and others who al
ready had advised compliance with the
law. have hastily Instructed the parieh
priests Of their dioccses that their for
mer advice is null and void. and today
in all the churches Of Paris bishops and
priests, after mass, read the letter from
Cardinal Richard. Archbishop of Paris,
communicating the decision of the Holy
See to continue services III the church
es, but abstain from any declaration,
and Cardinal Richards own instruc~
tions, III view of the order issued by
the prefoct of the Seine yesterday, not
to permit for the present the employ"
mont of ceremonial dreperies at mar"
riages.
The church wardens, whose legal ex-
istence expires next Tuesday, were
thanked today from the pulpits of the
various churches Prayers were offered
for the protection of God during the
coming period of persecution.
The government regards the action
of the Pontiff as little less than a sum-
mons of the French Catholics TO open
rebellion, as rendering the situation ex
ceedingly grave and possibly entalling
the most deplorable consequences.
Premier Clemenceau and M. BRAND,
Minister of Public Worship, were in
conference all day today, There is no
sign of the government faltering but
it is recognized that they may be
forced to resort to extreme measures.
NJ. BRAND said today that the decision
of the Pope was entirely unexpected.

LOOKING FOR FORESTER
One Of the Men Indicted by the Grand

company, who was Indicted along with the
others for conspiracy 10 defraud the
United States Government out OF coal
lands. The reason Forester Is now the
center OF interest is because he is not
TO be found. All of the indicted parties

No information can be obtained from the
United States Marshars office further

AT the Whitehall, 30 South Stale street,
where Forester makes his home, no in

to his whereabouts. No one at the house

not left any word where he was going

SCHEME To bETRAY
LOYAL AMERICANS
Chairman Young of the United
Republicans" Will Or
ganize Clubs.
PROJECT TO ASSIST
THE SANITY LEADERS
Blank Cartridges Fired Aim
lessly at Political Leaders
Of Mormon Church.

Briant s. Young, State chairman of
the "United Republicans, the organ
ization formed recently to prevent Re-
publican desertions to the American
party by claiming to oppose ecclesias-
tical influence in politics within the
ranks of the Republican party, will
leave shortly after January l on trip
of the State to form local organizations
or clubs which will be affiliated with tho
central organization In Salt Lake City.
Further than TO say that he contem-
plates such a trip, Mr.. Young declines
to make public his plans of organiza-
ticn,
Mr.. Young says that already he has
invitations to organize the ' United
Republicans in Kane. Garfield, Pluto.
SEWER, Carbon, Sanpete, ,Iuab, Iron and
Utah counties in the southern part OF
the State, and in Weber, Box Elder and
Cache in the north. He expects to visit
all these counties during the late winter
and spring, and declares that a State
convention Of Republicans opposed to
ecclesiastical rule will be held In Salt
Lake next June.
Next Saturday the "United Republir
can, a weekly organ of the organiza-
ton, will be issued for the first time,
j, G. Weaver will be the editor of the
of the membership, 1T is claimed that
already 1900 people in Salt Lake county
have signed the rolls.
A significant feature Of the organiza-
tion IS work is the declaration IN its
platform of opposition to the elevation
Of ecclesiasts to political office This Is
particularly significant in view Of the
fact that Apostle Reed Smoot g term in
tho United States Senate expires two
years hence, and, if the United Repub-
leans are sincere, 1t is tantamount to
a declaration of hostility to his re-elec
tion. The platform declaration in
question is as follows:
We recognize that. as American citi-
gens, church leaders well lay
members OF church organizations have
a legal right to aspire to and hold po-
litical office. but we deem 1t unwise and
detrimental to the best interests of tho
State for high churchmen Of any denom-
ination TO become candidates for such Of
fee or use their ecclesiastical influence
In behalf of others. We believe that such
action is contrary TO the spirit OF the
constitution and further that IT endan-
gers the existence OF political parties and
tends TO dislntegrate the churches them
selves and arrays man against man by
arousng religious prejudices,

GREAT OPPORTUNITY
FOR AMERICAN TRADE
Report From the Bureau Of
Manufactures Shows EX-

WASHINGTON, Dec 10-The results
Of the first years efforts of the Gov
ernment directly to promote American
export trade in manufacturer goods are
portrayed in the interesting report of
Maj. John M, Carson, chief Of the
bureau of manufactures in the Depart

turers and merchants with names Of
persons throuhout the world engaged in
the sale OF imported merchandise,
The report says In part:
The cotton piece goods trade OF Amer
lea Is large and constantly growing. The
exports OF cotton clothes from Great
Britain TO China alone for 1905 were
greater than those of the United States
TO all countries for that period. The en-
tire value OF shipments OF cotton piece
goods from the United States TO South
America for the past fiscal year was
$3.244.567. while the shipments of Great
Britain for the elk months ended June

and for ten months ended October, 1906,
nearly S32 000: 600. To Argentina alone

Council made trip Sunday TO the Iso-

upon the location of a roadway to the

sldered that such q step is necessary. as

The trip was made as far as the Wage
ner brewery In a carriage, but from that
point Il was necessary TO travel afoot,
and the city fathers had to wade through
several inches OF soft mud to accomplish
the trip.
Despite the hardships OF the trip the
business attempted was accomplished.

accompanied the party and agreed on
the part OF the brewing company 10 bear

half,

lLIFF METHODIST CHURCH
Forceful and Eloquent Sermon Deliv
cred by thu Pastor.

The service at the Hin Methodist
church Sunday evening was Of unusual
interest, and was deserving of much
larger congregation than attended. Rev.
Eelnick took his text from second Tim
othy lip, and spoke with feeling upon
the text, Il know who l have believed
and am persuaded that he Is able to
keep that which l have committed unto
him against that day" He illustrated
how faith brings assurance and how
each time faith Is rewarded IL inspires
fuller trust, until one is led to where
he confidently commits all to Him who
has never failed.
Miss Emma Holberg sang Beyond the
Gates OF Paradise and Miss Alice Da-
Wis rendered on the violin the "Eligie"
by Ernest. Miss Davis's playing was
evidently greatly appreciated by the au-
dience. Her execution was excellent
her playing so full OF feeling as to keep
the audience almost spellbound. Much
regret was expressed over the fact that
II would be the last service at which
Miss Davis would play, as on Tuesday
OF this week she leaves with her parents
for Los Angeles. where she Will make
her future home.
