Peet Talks Some.

Rev. j. /. Fink, Presbyterian mis-
sionary gave lecture in the Prcsby-
terrain church to good sized audience,
OF which myself in company with 9th.
er elders and some church members
formed part, It's the same old story
that has been told for years, only CIV
en- perhaps more Interestingly to the
people, who are ever ready TO receive
such falsehoods, by showing stereop,i-
con views on canvass in most magni.
flying manner
AT the close OF the performance,
Mr.. V. S. Peet, who is here represent
ing the business men of Utah, arose
and said he desired to challenge some
OF the statements made He denied
that the Mormon church was guilty of
the things charged against 1t and Of.
Gloucester church, II the lecturer
would prove his statements This
was rather unexpected and the pas
tor tried to stop the Utah man and
ordered him out, threatening to call
the police After some time Mr.. Peet
subsidized and the people filed out some
what upset. MIR Peet Is an honest,
upright and sturdy man, as you all no
doubt know him from past reputa-
tions in defending the truth and the
most loyal people of Utah, | think
you will all agree with me in saying:
success to him in such good cause. "
How can our true character and
motive Of life be judged? "By their
fruits ye shall know them" What
are the aspirations OF the Mormon
people; what have they been instru.
mental in yielding to the world? Prin-
ciples of vital Importance that cannot
DO equaled by the wisdom OF mortal
man; which they are now trying to
trample underfoot. Well has the
Prophet Joseph Smith said: "Perse.
cutions may rage, mobs may combine,
armies may assemble, calumny may
defane, but the truth OF God will go
forth booty, nobly aud independently,
till IL has penetrated every continent,
visited every cline, swept every coun-
try, and sounded in every ear, till the
purposes OF God shall be accomplished
and the great Jehovah shall say the
work is done.
Brethren and sisters we ought to
feel proud that we are numbered with
the saints OF God. The love inspiring
duty NOW rests upon our shoulders TO
carry on The great work which has
been spoken Of by the mouths OF Holy
Prophets, feel we'll in the work and
as time rolls on l hope to join your
numbers once more, Always ready
and willing TO lend helping hand
with my co.laborers in hosting the
banners CT truth above Those Of tYran-
ny, remain with love TO all my many
friends

Stupendous Work
 Of Southern Pacific

The completion of the new Southern Pac lie line to San Carlos from Win kleman is an undertaking which in itself is of a more stupendous nature than is nerally consi tered. c. D. Reppy, right of way agent for the Gila Valley, Globe & Northern, has re- ceived information that the work of extending the The would begin as soon as the road is formally taken over by Mr. Randolph. Bnt, accord ing to Mir. Reppy, the thirty miles of road which is 10 be constructed from WinkIeman to San Carlos will be one of the most difficult, or rather most tedious, tasks of railroad construction ever accomplished in the territory In MT. Reppy's judgment it will take at the very least two years to construct the thirty miles of road and that it will cost the Hartman syndicate in the vicinity of $l00, 900 a mile.
 The Southern Pacific will use the G. V., G. & N. for its main line from Bowie to San Carlos after the com pletion Of the Phoenix & Easter ,and it will be some time before the con- templa,ed cutoff from Deming, N. M., to Solomonville via Guthrie, is built

Arizona is Richer
 By $24,652.11

Territorial Secretary Nichols haa turned over to the treasurer of the territory the sum of $24 ,651.lI, which amount represents 2 per cent of the gross premiums received by the in surance companies authorized to do business in Arizona during the year 1906.
 As an indication of the growth of the territory, the business done by the insurance companies is. perhaps, as good a barometer as any other to be found, and in this connection it is interesting to know that the above amount indicates an increase in round numbers of $i0O, 900 over the amount of the premiums rec eived by the com panies during 1905.
 The money receiv ed from the in- 'urance companies all gofs to she chool fund.

Delegate Smith
 Talks Statehood
A St. Louis dispatch says:

A St, Louis dispatch says:
 "Arizons and New Mexico will have statehood-separate statehood, just as soon as they quit stacking the com mittees on us in congress" emphat- ically declared Congressional Dele gate Mark Smith, of the former ter ritory, at the Jefferson ho'el today.
 "Who's theyg" repeated Mir Smith in reply to question. "Why, tho,e who are in control of the situation in Washington. don't care to specify the names. Uncle Joe Cannon has voted for. or favored the admission of every territory that has wan:ed t.. come into this union since he has been in congress, until he came to us, and some of the territories had much less population than either Arizona or New Mexico, too.
 "There's- nn real reason why we should not be admitted, further than there never has been a time until in 1 the last two years, that there has not been d m ,jority in congress in favor of admitting us. We simply are blocked in the committee. But per haps President Roosevelt and other, will come around to our way of think ing before the present administration goes out.
 ''We have a grand country dowr there, and we need statehood to de
 velopit. Whether a separate state hood bill will be introduced in con
 gre-s at its next session depends some
 what upon the complexion of tha' congress and more especially on tn
 complexion of the committees insofs
 as they effect our interests"

 A peculiar situation developed thi, morning when one case was called that of Edgar Linson.
