rate Is on the way 1t N.Y. be re-
marked with some feeling of con
fidence that it has almost arrived.
Popular expectation seems unlikely
to be satisfied long with a conees-
sion representing any greater charge,
and when public sentiment has thus
become fixed, as distinctly seems the
case now, Il is all but irresistible.
There may be a pause in the sliding
scale. If 1t may be so termed, but
the end clearly must be a fat tariff
of two cents mile for the traveller
in this state. 1t may be even
doubted il the present Legislature can
resist the urgency of the pressure
felt on all sides. The commission.
however, has reached a conclusion
that it can feariessIy support. 1t las
proceeded with care and deliberation
and exhibits me courage in Offering.
with its plentitude of power, a de-
cision which admittedly will not
satisfy a people who cannot be made
TO believe that however high and
unjust existing freight rates may be.
anything above a two-cent passenger
charge is excessive.

the Office of the adjutant general yes
terday and determined to dedicate tie
Wisconsin monument on the old prison

diers died in Andersonyille prison.

was appropriated by the legislature
for the work. and two years ago IN
additional 5000 was authorized for ex-
pelses. A bill is now before the .eg.
islature TO appropriate 81 900 To defray
the expenses of dedication. 1t Is de-
sired to have a ceremony which win

fittingly dedicate the expensive and
beautiful monument The commits

SENATOR SCORES
MORMON CHURCH
UNWORTHY OF ASSOCIATION
WITH OTHER ORGANIZATIONS.
HISTORY DISCREDlTABLE
From Nauvoo to the Endowment
House An lndulgent Public Has
Watched With Prayerful Hopeful
ness That Last of Power Might
Be Checked.

Washington, d. c., Feb. 21.-Sen-
ator Hansborough of North Dakota
addressed the senate yesterday on
the Smoot resolution, denouncing
mormonism with vigor After de-
claring his determination to vote
against the resolution and express
ing the views which he held in re-
gard to that propaganda; after de-
claring that the history of the Nor
mon church is discreditable and that
it was impossible, for him to associ-
ate Mormonism with other sectarian
organizations, he said:
Il am in full accord with the con-
stitutional provision that every one
should worship God in his or her
own way, but l have no sympathy
with an Organization whose oath
bound members array themselves in
the livery of heaven in order that
they may gain control of temporal
affairs, social, political and CONNER.
cial. In this respect the Mormon
church is VIGOROUSLY UNIQUE. IT'S
scheme of salvation is based wholly
upon its success in dominating the
political fortunes of the community
in which it conducts its operations.
Without this advantage it would be
failure. Once in political control,
it moves rapidly forward until 1t ac-
quires commercial supremacy. At
all times the saving of souls is but
an incidental part of its strange
business. And yet at no time and
in no way. ont even through its per-
fected system of colonization, has 1t
been enabled to hide itself from the
penetrating public gaze. The law abid-
ing people of the land have not been
deceived. From Nauvoo to the en-
dowment house at Salt Lake. from
the place of plural marriages to the
1.-THE paying colony, from the colony
to the ballot box and the ballot box
to the United States senate an in
dnlgen public has looked steadily on
in prayerful hopefulness that the
time would surely come when the
strange and devious course of Nor
monism, ever defiant of popular opin-
ion, stimulated with the lust of DOS
session and power, would receive a
check. That time has come. and no
more fitting T ACE could be chosen
than in this chamber of impartial
Judgment for the rendering of the
long delayed verdict"

ALL SILLY ENOUGH

A fellow by the name of Lehr. one

court by appearing at a drawing room
IN a check tweed suit. yellow boots
and colored shirt. He also aroused ire
Y insisting that his wife should have
precedence over the wives of ambas-
sadors and it is stated that when this
privilege was denied to Mrs. Lehr he
pointed out that his jewelry and the
jeWelry of his wife we're worth more
than all of the other plumber worn by
all the grandees in the room. At
Lehr's last court appearance he wore
black knee breeches and white silk
stockings and patent leather dancing
pumps on which were fastened
diamond buckles Of great brilliance."
1t is with humiliation that American
manhood reads of the capers OF Lehr
and his kind at European func-
tons. And yet he is the representa-
live of a class that Is all too numer-
GUS, an aristocracy of dollars. contemp-
tible, not because of the dollars but
because of the assinine display made
of them and the vulgar or vicious
uses TO which they are put It Is this
class that naturally breeds Thaws and
Whites and degenerates of that sort.
