condition in which so many Of the
MoImons md themselves is well known
to non- Mormons. and Is recognized by
them as one that will pass away IN
time. and as one. therefore, which
would best be let alone, And he read
a quotation from the testimony of a
prominent non~Mormon given before
the senate committee at Washington
during the Smoot investigation.
RECOGNIZED BY CONVENTION.
in addition to this, the Constitutional
convention which was held prior TO the
granting OF statehood recognized the
condition which had come down TO Titan
from the past. The law defined poly
gamy, and fixed the penalty FOR Viola
ton OF the law. But tnat same conVen-
ton. by inference and inevitable con-
clusion, acquiesced IN the state of af-
fairs here in Utah, and was not dis
posed To disturb existing conditions.
FIX UP CONTRADICTIONS.
This preliminary work done, Mr.. Rob
erts launched out as a. critic Of tho
crecds. tie did So, he said. in order to
let the young people know how utterly
incompetent our opponents are of ind
ing fault with Mormon theology, He
wanted 10 point out 10 them some of the

association. or at least some of the
members thereof stood for. and by req
son OF which they We're not In rOndi-
lion to cruicise us.
DOCTRINE or DEITY.
The first poiut was the doctrine OF
Deity but as he had already discussed
their notions on this head, he merely
referred to what he had said explaining
that he would ask the ministers to fix up
the contradictions In their own creeds
before attempting 10 find fault with
others creeds.
THE DIVINITY OF MAN.
Another point was the doctrine con-
corning the relation Of man to God.
Elder Roberts declared the ministerial
association to be far In the rear on
this subject, for the idea advanced by
Mormonism 10 years ago that men and
God are of the same race. Is sweeping
the earth ike Hood. He read from
the New Theology" by Mr., Campbell,
and also from a leading theological
magazine published in England to
show how this doctrine of Joseph Smith
is laying hold OF the minds of men.
Notwithstanding the efforts OF the cler-
gy throughout the land to check its
growth And this idea, he further de-
cared, had been advanced by the
prophet 30 years before it was taken up
by leaing minds in Chrlstendom.
sECTARIAN REPRESENTATION.
Mi Roberts chief point however. was
tine Presbyterian creed on the doctrine
NJ prpdCHtiuHtlOn. He read from the
articles of faith Of this denomination
ON this doctrine and also the comment
OF prominent Presbyterian whose
work was intended for use In schools
and colleges. The idea advanced here
was that God had chosen some sinners
from n countless multitude OF sinners
and set them apart for salvation, and
relegated Tho bulk OF mankind 70 eter-

had done or left undone, but merely be-
cause his justice and mercy had so

EVENING SESSION.
Last evening Elder r. II. Roberts
spoke again TO an immense audience IN
the tabernacle in continuation of mis-
afternoons discourse. Part Of the SER
mon was the completion Of remarks
which he had made at the O'Clock
session, but Mr.. Roberts turned critic
long enough 10 examine the creeds of
the men who were so confident of er-
rors in the Mormon faith.
CALDER OF PREACHERS.
He first referred to his structures Of
the ministers I'm the afternoon, and ex-
planned that he had no personal ami

perience of others appeared from II
quotation which nc read from Mr..
Campbells book In which the English
minister gave the public estimate Of
the churches and the clergy. and which
was harsher than anything Mr Rob.
erts had said. Part OF the quotation Is
as follows; THE masses of the people
on the one hand and the cultured class
on the other are becoming increasingly
allenated from the religion OF the
churches. a London daily paper made
a religious census some years ago aud
demonstrated that about one-ffth OF
the population Of the metropolis attend

Burr Oak IA. DEBORAH IL.

The above score is the result of the
ball game between Burr Oak and
DEBORAH at the fair grounds last Sun
day. 1t certainly was fierce demon
stration of the great National game,
reverting in fact to the point of see-
ing how many scores could actually
be run in, for the way those Burr
Oakers slugged the ball and ran
around the DEBORAH pitcher to home
plate for the first eight innings was
something awful and very amusing to
the fans and almost necessitated the
scorer in setting an assistant. The

MRS. K. B. McRoberts Suicides.

Mrs. K. B. McRoberts after identl-
flying body dug up from the potters'
field at Dubuque last week, as her
husband, committed suicide. 1t is the
end of a lifelong tragedy and a
woman's struggle against adversely
and poverty. says the Charles City
Press. There were few more fpromi-
nent men than McRoberts in. Calmar
few years ago. He was president of
bank and highly respected. while
his family moved in the best society
there and here. But he specialized,
lost money and took to drink to drown
his sorrow. He went from bad to
worse, until his property and position
were gone. His wife pleaded with
him to reform and make new staI
in life, but his spirit was broken and
he took to the road as tramp, al
though he kept in communication
with his wife. She came here and

to make both ends meet and keep paid

Sunday, on the occasion of their 30th
wedding anniversary. Mrs. Nels
Clausen made the arrangements for
the occasion and invited in hundred
or more friends Of the venerable
couple. The day was very pleasantly
spent by all who had the good fortune
to participate. Mr.. and Mrs. Iverson
were married ON June goth, 1877,
being the first couple to be married in
the Canoe church. Mr.. Iverson was
also the first white child born in

been happy In the enjoyment of good
health and abundance of material
things. They were presented with a

fortunate indeed that he did not fare
worse There is large rock just at
the foot of the embankment, in the
road, which has fallen down from
above, and in driving past it his horse
became frightened and SHE'D off the
road, rambling down the bank and
into the river. He managed to get
out before he struck the river, but
the horse and vehicle rolled into the
river, and it was necessary to unhitch
the horse in the water, and let it
swim to the other side. The horse
was not injured to any extent, but
the vehicle was demolished. and the
mail was soaked with water This
rock should be removed from the road

Vice President Fairbanks risked has
life on Monday at Yellowstone Park,
Wyo., to save girl from drowning,
and as result is looked upon as a
hero. Sitting Oh the veranda of the

the water, and two other women in a
boat too frightened to give any as
sistance. On the pier stood two
men, with mouths agape. bat max
ing no effort to rescue the young
woman.
Pulling off his coat as he ran, the
vi President dashed down to the
pier and without hesitation leaped into
the water. In a moment he had
reached the young woman's side.
One OF the men on the pier, who had
recovered from his fright, also leaped
into the water and was close second
in reaching the young woman.
The Vice President and the other
man succeeded in dragging the girl,
who had lost consciousness, to the
shore. Mr.. Fairbanks led in the
work of resuscitation until it was
seen the girl would recover. and then.
almost exhausted, turned his charge
over to others.
Many persons called to congratulate
