The Smoot Stunt
Helena Independent,

Helena Independent,
1t is getting TO be rather difficult
stretch Of patriotism TO sustain any
overwhelming respect for the United
States Senate. The Smoot case did
more to dIscredit our upper house -
than did all the sneakiug, evil machi-
nations of such men as Platt, Depew,
ct al.
The Salt Lake Tribune says that
however pure Apostle Reed Smoot may
be personally, he has shown by his own
words that he is not above associating
himself very closely with law.
brcakers-with mon Of admitted, and
even Wanted immortality. When he
was testifying in his own behalf at
Washington, he admitted that he was
III holy communion with men who were
living In polygamous relation; and
being asked with reference to the at
titude of the church toward what is
there called unlawful cohabitatiop, he
Indicated to the committee what his
opinion was in this very important
matter, His testimony was as follows;
The Chairman-To whom was this So
called revelation madc?,
Senator Smoot-Do YOU mean the mani

The C'hairman-Ycs.
Senator Smoot-To Wilford Woodruff,
as | understand II.
The Chairman-Do you know how he
interpreted It?
Senator Smoo,-He interpreted IL that
II meant unlawful cohabitation as well as
polygamous marriages.
This man. Reed Smoot, is Senator
of the United States Of America, and
yet he is intimately associated with
men who are confessed breakers of the
law of his State. and who are living IN
direct defiance of what is considered
in his own church to be sacred reve-
lation from the Almighty. Some of
these hold that they have the right to
continue TO sustain relations with their
numerous families. which are pro-
hibited by law, simply because they
had entered upon these relations years
ago. But the former head Of their
church-the man who received the sup.
posed revelation known as the mani
festo-has recorded his own version of
that document, and it has been cstab"
lished by the testimony of Reed Smoot,
and his master, Joseph Z. Smith, as be
ing prohibitive Of the practices in
which the majority of the hierarchs in
dulge. But that makes no difference
to Reed Smoot. His purity has been
vouched for in high places, aud it may
be that he imagines himself to be so

his personal worth will amply compeu-

permitted to observe that membership
in a gang of law-breakers is not, at

he will recall that he has always as

that IT is entirely unlikely that the
followers Of the political apostle VIII
be able to detect anything particularly
wrong in the Smoot position.

shall be chosen ones from time TO time
in the various settlements of the peo-
pie of the church, who Will bo set apart
for the "duty" Of keeping polygamy
alive. That programme has been now
in operation for about two years; per-
hnps little longer. That it is in ac-
tive operation, the number of polyg
amous marriages now celebrated from
time to time is sufficient evidence
The plan Of the polygap,ists and their
tools TO capture the Agricultural Col
lege and make it the church exponent
of the polygamous cult has been in
secret progress right along, and the
people of the State know nothing about
it. The people of Logan, alert TO any
move affecting the college, did not sus
pect what the real plan was, and over
looked the actual danger in their fear
of fancied raid that never took real
form or substance; and so the polyg
amous plan has fully prevailed. The
capture of the Agricultural College for
polygamy is now complete.

GIVE THE TEACHERS THE RAISE!
Salt Lake CITY, June

In so far as the board of education
of this city carries out III good faith
the desire of the public here for the
increase of salaries of the actual
teachers. it will do well. number of
organizations were appealed to here IN
support of the proposition agreed to by
the late Legislature 10 raise the tax
rate limit here one mill, this added tax
to go TO the increase of the salaries
of the teachers in the public schools
of this city The universal sentiment
was, so far as we were able TO learn,
and as we know in some important
eases, that the increase should go to the
grade and primary teachers The priu-
cipas, supervisors. superintendent, and
clerk of the board had their salaries
considerably increased the gear before,
in spite of the fact that the board
claimed to be short Of funds.
We note, however, that the board
acts first on the supervisors and princi
pals, adding again some TO their pay,
without SO far having done anything,
except in a general way, to add any
thing to the pay of the grade and
primary teachers. There is yet time,
however, for the board to do the fair
thing by these teachers, and we trust
that it may do so, and do it generous
~ The intent of the public here un-
auestionably was that the whole of this
increased tax should apply, as lndl
Gated, to raise the pay of the grade
and primary teachers. 1t was assumed
and the fnct so is, that the increased
assessment roll would amply provide for
any increase desired in the salaries of
the superlntende the principals, su-
pervisors, clerks and others. This one
mill tax increase certainly should 60 eX
clusively TO the actual teachers in
tho primaries and in the grades. In so
far as this may be departed from
(Which we hope will not be in any ma
terial degree) the board will disregard
public sentiment. There will be ample
money in the increase of the assoes-
ment roll and the tax resulting there
from TO meet all other requirements OF
the school system of the city, Let
the grade and primary teachers have
the increase which the law provided for
them, and which public sentiment here
favored in theiT interest.

Minerals Make Up Crop
Losses
Losses

Chicago Journal OF Finance,
The Wall street bears who lay ex-
traordlnary stress on unfavorable crop
conditions in the United States, and
who insist that shortage in our staple
crops must necessarily prove de-
cided check TO our prosperity. overlook
some highly important elements in our
business situation that may more than
Offset losses due to short crops.
There are other individuals, besides
farmers, who are factors in making the
United States a nation of ever-lncreas-
ing prosperity. We have especially in
mind in this respect the ledge finders
and mine makers of the country, who
make the earth give up, for the benefit
of mankind its hidden resources Of
useful and precious metals.
For instance, the shortage in the win
ter wheat crop, as estimated by the
United States Department of Agricul'
ture, will doubtless not represent in dol.
lars and cents any greater amount of
money than WILL probably be this coun'
try's gain. for the year 1907 through
the enterprising operations OF the ledge
finders and mine makers. AS noted
in last week S Journal Of Finance, the
director of the mint, George Il, Rob
erts, estimates that the production of
gold in the United States for 1907,
owing largely TO the great increase IN
the Nevada output, will amount this
year to over 100000, 900. This alone
is compensation, financially speaking
for n shortage of 100000, 900 bushels
in winter wheat at 81 bushel, nor
must it be overlooked that wheat could
not sell at 81 a bushel, but more likely
at so cents or under, wero there not
this big shortage in the crop.
In Il corresponding way the bad luck
of the cotton planters may this year
be Offset by the good luck of the cop
per miners, for increased production
and higher prices for copper in 1907
may be moro than an equivalent for
loss through shortage in cotton pro
duction. The value of copper exports
from the United States is increasing
maryelously.
Prior to 1858 exports of copper had
not even attained the 81 100000 mark
and from that time until 1891 the ex-
ports ranged in value between $1,000
900 and So 100000. In 1892 they gained
to $7,250,0o0; in 1894 to $19,500, 900;

that may arise. At the same time,
TO do this, rye would advise them TO
secure themselves now against all con
tingencies by adopting the Idaho test
oath clause in their constitution and
pass laws in accordance Herewith. That
clause merely provides that voters in
the State must yield their first civil
allegiance to the State; not to sect.
The very fact that the Mormon lead
ers in Idaho resist the passage Of Il
statute giving effect to this constitu'
tional provision, shows that they arc
not willing to give in their loyalty to
The civil government Of Idaho, well
knowing that their real loyalty is
pledged elsewhere, and must remain, as
II always has remained, TO the church
headship in Salt Lake City.
Senator Dubois not only does an emf
nently good public service to the peo-
pie of Idaho in thus sharply and clear
ly defining the real issue in that State,
but he renders also service TO the
States round about Idaho: and to the
whole country as well. There is no
question but that his views are sound,
that his explanations of the situation
are accurate and clear. Nor is there
the least doubt of the further fact
that the people of Idaho must act di-
rectly and squarely upon this Mormon
question before it will ever be settled
in such way as to allow the people of
that State to control and manage their
own q DtfDirs

INGENIOUS BUT IMPRACTICABLE.

We have the following well-meant
and ingenious suggestion from a corro-
spondcnt who is Jealous for the impair
tial enforcement of the laws:
Salt Lake City, June 4,
Editor 'rribune.-lsn't there an ordi-
nance OF Salt Lake City against leWd and
lasclvious cohabitation which could be
enforced against the polygamists by the
police department without depending upon
the quiescent County Attorney and
Sheriff? READER,
The suggestion is impracticable for
the reason that if any such prosecution
were begun in the police court an order
would at once be applied for and OBJ
tanned from a District Court Judge re-
moving the case TO the higher court.
That is on the assumption that the
County Attorney would not appear in
the police court and demand that the
case be dismissed, as he very likely
would do, So thoroughly is the nisi
prius judicial system here under the
control of the polygamous leaders of
the church, that no case could possibly
come to issue in the police court.
1t is quite true that that court can,
and habitually does, deal with cases of
lewduess and lasciviousness, but only IN
the case OF female professionals; the
male professionals Of the lewd and las
civious class habitually escape, whether
they proceed under cover of alleged
latter day revelations or under the an
cient symbol Of the uuregenerate

BROWNING-LEE BILL PASSED
By Vote of AZ to 36, After a
 Great Contest.
New Law Will Permit Old Line Insurance Companies to Return to
 Arkansas.

Little Rock, April I7.-By vote of 42 to 36 the Browning-Lee bill passed the house yesterday after a contest that had been waged on the floor from the hour of being called to order until 5 o'clock in the afternoon, and which had been an orderly session until the roll call had been announced. A twenty minute interval of disorder reigned following the announcement, until it required a roll call vote to ad- journ the body.
 The Browning-Lee bill excepts from the provisions of the King antitrust law such old line insur- ance companies as are not in a com bination to control the prices of premiums within this state, re- gardless of their attitude in other states. Under the broad provisions of the King antitrust law no cor poration or company that was affiliated with any organization to control prices anywhere could transact business in Arkansas.
 Senator Jeff Davis was the leader of the forces opposing the bill. He also took an active part in the de- feat of the Balch bill of a similar nature, which had formerly been introduced in this session.
 Throughout the entire day the galleries and all available seats on the floor were occupied by en- thusiasts attracted to witness what was admitted to be one of the hercest floor fights that had been waged at this session.
 Speaker Hamiter had agreed to recognize the leader of the contest ing factions for the winning side after the roll call for a motion to reconsider the vote by which the bill had passed, and lay that vote on the table, which would have excluded the possibility of reviv- ing the issue. Accordingly after it was known that the bill had passed, MT. Killough was recog- nized and made the motion. There was a storm of disorder, during which the speaker put the motion to the house and declared 1t car ried.
 Representative Bullion of Faulk- ner county voted for the bill.
