road runs from Deming. There have
been stripped two true fissure veins,
continuous for $500 feet each. in which

APPEAL BOND IF
 THE STANDARD
Varying Opinions of the Attorney on Both Sides as to the Size of It-Oil Company Thinks Million Is About tho Proper Figure.

The Standard Oil Company of Indi- ana has applied to the United States circuit court for writ of supersedeas, suspending the operation of the recent hearing by Judge Landis in the United States district court of Chicago, in which the penalty assessed against the company was $29,000,000. Judge Cross cup, before whom the application was made, declined to take action until he had heard arguments from the attor- neys for both sides.
 The attorneys for the government in sisted that the supersedeas bond, if a writ of error were granted, should be as large as the fine assessed against the company. The attorney for the com pany argued for bond of $l,000,000. Judge Grosscup, while not specifying the amount of the bond, declared that he thought it should be equal at least to the total value of the Standard Oil Company of Indiana.

Senator Reed SmOOt Addresses
the Senate Never Had ButOne
Wife, He Says.

WASHINGTON, Feb, 20 = Senator
Reed Smoot Utah, apostle of the Nor
mon church, addressed the senate in
his own defense. 1t is the second
speech he has made in the senate, the
first relating to the creation of game
preserve in northern Arizona, a sub
iect in which President Roosevelt and
the Mormon senator are much inter-
ested. Mr.. Smoot said:
First, / desire TO state, as / have
repeatedly heretofore declared to the
senate and to the country that am
not and never have been polygamist.
| have never had but one wife and she
is my present wife.
"The Mormon church has stopped
plural marriages, and no polygamous
relation assumed subsequent to 1890 is
with the permission. sanction or ap
proval of the church. That is final and
fixed. Every such violation of the law
has the express condemnation of the
church.
Reference has been made 10 an al
legged reasonable obligation which II
is sought to claim is a part of the
Mormon endowment ceremonies. The
senate will understand that these cere-
monies are of sacred character to
those participating in them and are
therefore not diyulged. They were in
stituted in the Mormon church by .Io-
seph Smith some time prior to his
death and are yet given as part of the
temple ceremonies.
"There does not exist in the endow-
ment ceremonies of the Mormon
church the remotcst suggestion of hos
tility or of antagonism to the United
States OF TO any other nation.
THE state of Utah came into the
Union eleven years ago. Scarce two
years had passed when there appeared
in our national horizon the cloud of
war with Spain. Side by side, shoul
der to shoulder, with every other state
in the Union, Utah furnished her full
quota of American soldiers ana offered
more.
There was no question of religious
distinction or dispute then. owe no
