American is Through smoking he
knocks his pipe On the heel of his
shoe to remove the ashes, shoves it in

Now, in the old country, a man
takes his pipe seriously-very seri.

last him a lifetime and then be in
good repair to hand down to his heir.
Inc pipe is passed from generation to
generation and it is always handled
as carefully as newborn babe. The
smoker never touches the bowl while

glossy color. When the German has
completed his serious and meditative
smoke his pipe is laid very carefully
away, where it will cool properly and
without danger of scratching He
does not ram it into his pocket with
other miscellaneous articles as the
rushing American does. He takes his
time and gives it his care and attention.

Mrs. Givens acknowledges that the
money was paid to her to purchase a

funeral expenses at his death. The
money was given to Mrs. Givens years
ago, and it was in gold. Recently Mrs.
Givens bought monument for her
father for use when he should die,
paying $50 for it, and her father saw it
and approved of the bargain. But
lately he changed his mind about the
matter, and the action was recently
taken into court. The jury awarded
plaintiff judgment in the amount of
$50, defendant to pay the costs.

CAN A CHRISTIAN HATE A NOR
MON.

The above question is asked by the
Inter-Mountain Republican. Now to
the law and the testimony in re-
gard to this question.
Will the Republican deny that Rev.
Leilich, DR.. Paden, DR.. Tiff, Rev. Mr..
Wishard, Rev. j. Wesley Hill, Rev.
Mr.. Clemenson, Mrs. Schoff, Mrs. Du-
bois and last but not least Mr.. Chas.
Mostyn Owen, are Christians ? Do
these people hate Mormon or do they
simply lie and misrepresent him to
the good people of the east, to save his
so-called benighted soul ?
Are these not well known facts?
Mr.. Leilich swore that Senator Smoot
was a polygamist and that state
ment was sent broadcast over the
land to prejudice the people against
Reed Smoot. Petition blanks inspired
by the majority of the above named
Christians claiming that Reed Smoor
was polygamist were passed around
in nearly every Christian church in the
land for signatures asking his remov-
al from the United States senate; the
protestants against Reed Smoot knew
that 1t was pre-arranged for Lenich
to make his false affidavit, and for
the rest of them to deny 1T, few
days after, knowing that their object
would be accomplished, in fact, follow
ing the old adage that 'falsehood is
up and travels leagues before truth
has his boots on" For years the
above named christians" have been
telling tales, half truth and half lies,
which are more damnable than COM
plete lies; that the Mormon spits on
the American flag; that he is ira
tor, and that Webster's dictionary does
not contain foul enough epithets to
hurl at him.
Will the Republican say that the
forenamed Christians do all the above
for love ? Is there no malice in their
actions?
Is it malice or love to bear false wit
ness against your neighbor.
Every one of the above are guilty of
bearing false witness against their
neighbor Mr.. Mormon. The doctrine
of burning heathens to save their souls
has passed away, and stands con-
damned as false and cruel. How much
more damnable is it in this enlight-
ened age for men cloaked in the livery
of heaven to blacken mems characters
and steal their good regulations. If
you call the above named persons
Christians, Mr. Republican, it is pos
sible for not only Christian to hate
a Mormon, but to wallow in the mire
of hell to injure him.
