SHOOTS CRUEL DOCTRINE.

II is a favorite boast OF the Mormon
leaders that the members of their
church '.are among the frcest and most
Independent people of all the Christian
denominations To be more definite.
Joseph f. Smith used that expression
10 the Senate committee at Washing
ton. part of his testimony was also
in relation TO the amount of freedom
which is allowed 10 the woman member
of the church when her husband heeds
the viperous hierarchical whisper and
determines to drag the faithful partner
of his life into polygamy II was like
this:
Senator Pettus-Is the language that
YOU have read construed 10 mean that
she is bound 10 consent?
Joseph +. Smith-The condition is that
If She does not consent the Lord Will de
stroy her. but do not know how He
Senator Bailey-Is II not ,rue that In
the very next verse. Il she refuses her
consent her husband is exempt rom the
laT which requires her consent?
Joseph F. Smlth-Yes; he Is exempt
from the law which requires her consent.
Senator Balley-She is commanded 10
consent. but " she does not. ihen ne Is
exempt from the requirement?
Joseph F. Smith--Then ne is at liberty
n proceed without her consent, under
the law.
Senator Beveridge-In other words. her
consent amounts TO nothing?
Joseph +. Smith-lt amounts 20 moth
ing but her consent.
Senator BeNerldge-So that far as
there In anything there concerning her
consent; Il might as well not bs there:
That is the barbaroua reaching which
is promulgated TO fnc church and the
world through the Doctrine and Cove.

Use to the country that he would have

book of the manifesto, setting aside
that inhum0n law and practice. And
independence permitted TO the Mormon
people. Not only do the ecclcsiasts
claim the right 10 dictate the spiritual
affairs OF the followers, but this pitt
less law is laid down in their written
doctrinal authority Of guidance to com
pei an unwilling woman to submit to
the cruel and criminal practice of
polygamy within her own household.
Well. why not' Joseph f. Smith
preached a sermon in Provo once in
which ne thundcred forth the tyranny
that ''if any man says vou can direct
me spiritually but not temporarily, ne
lies in the presence Of God.
The domination Of the pricstcraft Of
the Mormon church being so relent-
lessly complete, the world would be
sadly lacking in sense of Justice if
it did not hold the hierarchs in undi.

Use and Not Lose Niagara

Editor Tribune;-A telegram from
Buffalo tells of a proposition Of the
United States Waterway commission
TO raise the water in Lake Erie by dam
ming Niagara river.
Apropos of this, let me suggest some
thing additional thereto. which solves
the much mooted problem Of the APP
pretended impairment or destruction OF
Niagara Falls by water-power compa'
nies drawing of the water above the
falls.
The United States and Canada can
derive a large revenue from the water
power of Niagara Falls without impair
ing that greatest wonder Of the world.
Partly dam the river at the head Of the
rapids by building bridge with huge
square piers. Supplement these with
food gates let down like window-sash
from some of the spans, so as 10 raise
the water in Lake Erie and Detroit
river three or four feet, thus improving
navigation.
Grant franchises at high rentals TO
water-power companies to use all the
water that passes the dam, which
would be nearly the entire amount.
At pre6Xed dates raise the flood
gates and let enough water flow out TO
restore the normal flow over the falls.
They should be raised early IN the
as to protract the spectacle for several
DAYS, especially when conventions may
be held at Buffalo or Niagara
The cost would not ke much and the
revenues would be everlasting, The
Davis island dam across the Ohio be-
low Pittsburg. which IS lowered during
floods to restore The natural Aow OF
the river. is somewhat similar. but cost
more, because the whole dam has TO be
lowered into a long chamber of mason
ry in the bed OF the river. whereas only
the flood gates, sliding in Hanged steel
beams bolted to the piers, are needed
at Niagara.
The number of tourists visiting the
falls would be increased, for the rush
Of water at each opening of the flood
gates would he unique and tremen-
dous sight Besides which. il would be
easy to make a fountain with a ten o.
twelve foot jet rising nearly to the
height of the falls from a huge nozzle
under the foam in the semicircle below
tine Horseshoe Falls, connected by
tubular hume with n shaft sunk in the
channel of the river. This would make
all other fountains on earth seem small
in comparison.

Back to Old Arkansas.

Tom Johnson and family, who
two weeks ago babe farewell to rel
atives and friends here to take up
their abode in the beautiful land OF
New Mexico, have returned to their
first loved and will, in all probable
ity, henceforth stick to his native
soil. Tom made a tour OF inspec-
ton of the new country along in
the winter, and word and pen pic
ture of the new country were so
favorably impressed upon his
mind that he concluded that was
the country for him, and he and
his family left here two weeks ago
last Monday for their new home.
But now they are back to stay.
Tom says there wasn't enough
water out there to wash his child
ren's faces and the wind was al
most unbearable. He says he
wouldn't stay there for a whole
township. Poorer but a wiser man.
