has deprived this Western church of the
spirit of revelation. has robbed it of the
gifts, blessings and powers resident in
the early church and now IN the reor-
ganization. Finding themselves desti-
tute OF these things they have been ex-
hausting their ingenuity to account for
the changes and TO explain the cessa-
tions. Like the apostates from the
primitive church established in the days
of Jesus, finding themselves destitute
of what their forefathers enjoyed, and
which perhaps they had enjoyed, they
concluded that they had become so ad
vanced, so convenienced In the posses
sion and command Of the many revela-
tions that had been given, that those
things no longer were needed. Hence
they have been acting upon their own
finite power and Judgment.
Probably the majority Of them are
honest. We have for them no unkind-
ness, no epithets, and intend no unnec-
essarv harshness. We come to call them
back to the old paths, we want them to
swell our ranks; 10 receive the ordi-
nances by authority
Mr.. Enisely told of a visit he made
TO Mormon lady at Melfort, in the
province OF Saskatchewan. Canada, uu.
der the misapprehension that she was a
member of his church. After it trans
pired that each was mistaken in the
others religion, Mr. Knisely asked the
lady if her husband was a Mormon
"No, he don't like Brigham Young
aud polygamy,' was her reply
Mr.. Hnisely is associated here for
a time with Elder e. c. Briggs, who
was in the quorum of the twelve for
many years and is now a patriarch.
Elder Briggs at one time was practical
~ the only missionary the Reorgauized
church had here. He crossed the plains
to Salt Lake in 1863 and propagsted
successful campaign among the Nor
mon people. and has had prominent
connection with the reorganization, the
history of which cannot be written
without the use of his name. His phys
icaI vigor is not impaired to any great
extent at the age of 70 years.
Elder Briggs called on Brigham
Young in person in the early days here,
requesting permission to occupy one
of the places of worship here. lie was
peremptorily told by Young: n'Whcr-
ever [ have any influence not a door
shall be opened to you, and l do not
want any of your preaching here You

MYSTERIOUS DISEASE

"Big Head Is Killing Hundreds OF
Sheep Around Soda Springs, Idaho.
Special to The Tribune.
Special to The Tribune.
BOISE, Idaho, May 27.-A disease
called "big head which is perplex-
ing sheep men and State Veterinarian
DR.. c. E. Noble of Boise, is causing
the death of many sheep in the vicinity
of Soda Springs and Idaho Falls. In
one camp over one hundred sheep have
died from the disease, and in other
camps about 25 per cent of them have
it. The disease received its name from
the effect it has on sheep. The heads
swell to a very large size, and in some
cases the eyes drop out, and in still
other cases the sheep are made blind.
While the sheep men. have had to
fight the disease for some time past, 1T
is still mystery, and it is being in
restigated by representatives of the
Bureau Of Animal and Plant Industry,
Some people think the, disease comes
from certain weeds, and sonnet hink it
comes from the soil, and again, it is
thought it is contracted going through
mountain passes from one range to an
other, Formerly the disease attacked
more particularly ewes with lambs, but
this year it is most prevalent among
dry ewes. The shep men are doing all
they can 10 cure the sheep, but thus far
no successful remedy has been found.
Sheep afflicted are usually driven to the
banks of streams, where they may rest
in the shade of trees, OF they are driven
to higher hills, where the air ls cool

Board of Railroad commissioners will
