TRIBUNE IDEAS
OF BOSTON MAN
The Rev. Herbert S. Johnson Says
He Can Prove His
Statements.

Boston, May 17.--Rev. Herbert s.
Johnson. of the Warren Avenue Baptist
church, is OF the opinion that he can
land one of the $1,000 rewards offered
by V. S. Peet, of Salt Lake City, on
phasese of the Mormon question.
Mr.. Peet told large audience to-
night of the many misrepresentation
directed against the Mormon people,
and after calling to account traducers
of Utah, offered to give any one the
sum of $1,000. who could prove that
polygamous marriages had been con-
summated in Utah with the sanction of
the Mormon Church since the manifes-
to in 1890, and another $1,000 for proof
that the Church interfered in politics.
Rev. Mr.. Johnson took exception to
Mr.. Poets statements. and said that
gentleman had falsihed Mr.. Johnson
said:
THE Utah man must either lose his
money or take back water. Peet is
promulgating untruths, and ! know
enough of the political situation to
show him up.
"As matter Of fact" said Rev. Mr..
Johnson. THE Mormon Church is now
active in politics. The Church is the
one great power feared in the states of
Utah and Idaho today No man can
be elected to office there without the
Mormon vote"

IL was joke, but when the reporter
expostuated and demanded that the
entire force get out and recover the
machine and when the typewriter

his enemies have gone so far as to say
