a trem rs effort was made to un-

women "a the country, who were doubt
less enlisted against him more on ac-
count Of their abhorance Of polygamv
than any other cause. And yet Senator
Smoot is not polygamist. He has
never had but one wife. Throughout
the trying ordeal to which he was sub
jected, in the Senate's investigation Of
the charges against him, he bore him
sell with a dignity and self-poise well
calculated to win the respect Of the
members Of the committee before whom
the investigation took place. He show

prosecutors. He made no show of a

to the government of the country over
all other allegiance and interests, includ-
ing the church, and convinced most Of
those who heard him of his sincerity.
1t can hardly be claimed that he
stands inimical to the Constitution and
laws Of the country, or that these make
him Ineligible to represent his State in

members. There was no question Of
legality Of his election. The only point
in the case was that of his qualification.
His opponents claimed that as high
official of the Mormon Church he was
disqualified because they alleged he ow-
ed it higher allegiance than he did the
country. AS this was not proved the
Senate properly declined to expel him.

THE JAMESTOWN EXPOSITION.

The fast approaching Exposition to
be held, opening April 26th next, on the
historic soil of Virginia a. the historic
jamestown, on the banks of the no less
historic James river, promises to be
one of the most phenomenal, illustrative,
historical and representative of the
century. Whilst in one sense of the
word it will be grand State enterprise,
it will be national in its luminous
grandeur and proportions, fits glaring
ann varied advantages, its commercial
and industrial utilities, its achievements
IN the sciences and arts, and historic
picturesqueness. 1t will be broader and
more significant than all this. 1t will
represent the growth, civilization, re-
hnement, progress, customs, mann ers
and dress of every civilized nation under
the sun, and even of uncivilized nations.
The former will vie with each other in
their rich, varied and artistic exhibits.
1t will be worlds exposition of its
progress at a State and National Expo
sition. 1t will be also a specular gath
ering, instructive and patriotic.
1t must not be forgotten that England
has almost equal interest with US in
this great celebration. While we are
magnlfying our growth from humble
beginning, we are clarifying the Eng
lish spirit which made even this humble
beginning possible, and it is unreason-
able to doubt that Presidential pro-
clamation inviting the nations of the
world to send their battleships to visit
our port will be received by all nations
with pleasure, and with England by
reclamation.
1t will be remembered that every ex-
position yet held has been eminentlv a
land show, and although each had in
corporated, to greater or less extent,
water decorations, this has been purely
an addition to the general plan, and not
a great feature. The jamestown cele-
bration will be dominated by its marine
portion, the situation impels this fact,
and to a certain extent the James
town memorial will be larger than the
others because its site will include not
only the few hundred acres comprised
within its barriers, but one hundred and
sixty square miles Of Hampton Roads,
whose water wash its beach. What
grand sight! Representative battleships
from every navy yard Of the world

GuggenheimS Declare War
From Friday's Bulletin.

A new and interesting phase has been injected into the local railway situation. Evidently the trust is greatly angered over Reynolds pre- sumption in poaching on their private preserves. Word has come over the wires from Seattle to the effect that the Northwestern will cut rates, and a determined effort will be made by the Trust to put the A. c. boats out of the Alaska business.
 The Guggenheims have entirely ignored the Reynolds proposition to treat them sQuarely in the matter of Right of Way and Reynolds has ac- cepted the gage of battle and will fight with all his resources to not only continue his steamship line, but build A railroad and make the Guggeuheim occupancy of the Territory of Alaska a. warm as possible.
 This morning the Reynolds Bank teyan business, aud as the paper. goes to press already has nearly SlOO,oOO.O0 deposited by local people. The com. bined resources of Reynolds all,ed in. terests are over fourteen millions, and with the good will of Alaskans to back him up there is not the slightest ques- ton as to the outcome of the battle

children. Justice Blesser gave him the
alternative of either paying mp or going
to Jail, whereupon he cashed no, but
declared he intended appealing to the
German counsel in Chicago.
