EDITOR GUARDIAN:-I am now
laboring here in San Diego. l
have been here ten weeks, and
came here in company with Elders
Nelson, Dunyon and Rupp on the
22d of April, after our conference
and priesthood in Los Angeles,
which convened on the 17th and
10Th. We had very good priest.
hood meeting, eleven elders being
present, We also had some visit
ing brethren: President Romney,
from Juarez, Mex; Bishop Warren,
from Bisbee; Bishop Curtis, from
San Pedro, and President Andrew
KImball, of Thatcher. We also
bad a very enjoyable conference.
On the 18th we all went down
to San Pedro and had the privilege
Of seeing the American fleet, which
was composed of sixteen men of
war. In the evening we watched
the ILLUMINATION and the search
lights, which was a grand sight.
l have had the privilege of going
on board two U. S. Cruisers, the
California and Albany, since ! have
been out on my mission.
We are having pretty good
weather here. 1t gets little
warm in the middle of tho day,
but tho mornings and evenings
are very pleasant. There is most
always little ocean breeze blow
ing, so it makes it nice. San Diego
is quite Il nice city, it has popu-
lation of about 10000 people.
Across the bay south is Coronado,
which is nice place and has a
beautiful hotel there. Tent city is
at Coronado. 1t is little city of
tents, laid out IN streets, and is
where a great many people go to
spend few months in the summer.
1t is on the Pacific front, about
mile and a half long and quarter
of mile wide. That is where l
spent the Fourth.
am enjoying the best of health,
and have ever since l arrived in
California, and ! am enjoying my
labors.
We have a small branch of the
church here. There is about forty
members, and we have pretty good
meetings. We are having pretty
good success in our tracing and
visiting and have number of in
vestigators. .
/ am always glad when the
GUARDIAN comes. 1t is like a
letter from home, and l enjoy
reading it.
Best regards to all my friends.

the backwoods of our State, you
would find people who would drive
you out again." But thanks be to
God, the masses of the people are
becoming more generous and uni
versally more intelligent. If the
people OF Missouri and Illinois
would not have this peculiar peo-
pie at that time, they would now,
and have repeatedly opened their
arms to receive them back.
Howbeit, we are here and since
the fact remains that it was relig-
lous persecution that drove the
pioneers out in quest of religious
liberty, that forced them away
from the confines of civilization,
the occasion has at least proven a
blessing to US in the reclamation
of the desert, the establishment of
"Zlon in the tops of the mountains,
exalted above the hills, where all
nations shall flow unto it." Isaiah,
the Bible Prophet, told this thou
sands Of years ago. Now we are
here in the full enjoyment of a full
fillment of the blessing.
Now we are here, in the people
from Illir dis, Missouri, and from
all quarters of the Globe, our
brethern and sisters.
We have joined hands in the
reclamation of this great country
of ours and invite all good people
to come and enjoy with us, the
descendants of the pioneers, that
religious liberty and liberation for
which the pioneers fought and
bled and many died for. SO on
the Gath we will get together and
have good time, honor the few
remaining pioneers who are left to
enjoy the fruit of their labors, and
perpetuate in the heart of the new
conner and descendants, love for
those who made it possible for us
to now enjoy.

Pioneers Day
BY A Son OF PIONEERS, ANDREW
KIMBALL.

On July Oath we will celebrate
the 61st anniversary of the advent
of the pioneers entering the valley
of the Great Salt Lake. TO the
stranger and casual observer, this
would not mean much, but to the
sons and daughters and other de-
scendants of the sturdy pioneers,
it means much, there is pride in
the hearts of these in the fact that
their fathers and mothers were the
ones who blazed the way and be-
gan the settlement Of this Great
lnter-mountain West.
The causes leading up to the ex-
pulsion of the mormon" people
people from their fated city "Nau.
voo," the unparalleled history made,
the sufferings entailed upon de-
fenseless, misunderstood people,
all have bearing upon this day,
The thought now that our Puri-
tan Fathers left the civilized world
to get here, where they could en-,
Joy religious liberty and serve God
agreeable to the dictates of their
own conscience, to us 1t seems O
strange thing, condition we
younger generation can hardly
realize.
History repeats itself, as with
our American fathers, so with the
fathers of this great Inter-moun,
tain West.
While in Missouri, many years
ago, the writer had occasion to

the combined Indian forces at
Powder River, Wyoming. He also
defeated the Indians in the battles
of Tongue and Rosebud.
Until 1888, General Crook was
constantly fighting the Indians un-
til he finally subdued them all and
they became peaceable. He was
afterward placed in charge of the
Indians, and owing to his ability,
tact and just dealings, he was able
to keep them on their reservations
and successfully established the
peaceable conditions which obtain
to tins day.

JAPANESE CAUGHT
 INSPECTING BATTERY
Supposed Spies Taken Into Custody at Fort Stevens Yesterday.

Portland, Ore, Jan. 21.-A special to the Oregonian from Fort Stevens, Oregon, says much consternation was caused today by the capture of two Japanese who were found lettering on the west battery. A sentry while walking 10 his post suddenly came up- on two Japanese who were walking upon the parapet of battery. As this place is rarely visited except bp special permission from the district artillery commander, the sentry hid behind d sentry box and watched their move ments seeing them point to different guns and emplacements, looking over the situation in general. The sentry took them into custody and marched them back to the main pose They were interviewed by District Adjutant Lieutenant E. r. KeTfOoJ. who could obtain no satisfactory explanations for repassing. Although nothing incrim- mating was found upon their person. the indications are that they were at the post for the purpose of obtaining plans and sketches of the different fortifcations and modes of defense. The Japanese were well dressed and seemed to be above the average in appearance and intelligence. The fact of their being in the most important

FLAWS CASE
 PROGRESSES
It Ought to End Latter
 Part of Next Week
The Insanity Experts Will Likely be Called To- morrow

New York, Jan. 21.-Jerome's long and severe cross examination of Mrs. Evelyn Thaw came to an end late to- day, and the attorneys for the defense then succeeded in placing in evidence O letter written by the defendant in the fall of 1903 which completely corrobat- ed the claim that the girl did tell him the story of her relations with White, much as she related it upon the stand. The letter, one of a dozen, which was read to the jury as tending to corro- borate Mrs. Thaw's testimony and further tending to show the effect her story had upon the defendants mind. Most of the letters had been read to the jury at the former trial and were considered one of the strongest bits of evidence in the hands of the defense. Jerome objected to their introduction but was overruled by Justice Bowling. After Thaw had made d waiver of the confidential relation of counsel and client, Frederick w. Longfellow, his former attorney appeared on the stand to identify the letters Some were ad- dressed to Longfellow and others had been sent to him to be delivered to Miss Nesbit. All contained many ref erences to the girls history and eX- periences and in the letters intended for the young woman. Thaw constantly spoke of his love and respect for her. Many sentences rambled incoherently. There were many scratches. erasurers and interlineations. The first letter Littleton read today was a repetition largely in the defendants own words of the story the girl says she told him in Paris in 1903. In it however Thaw refers to two "drugged Champagne incidents. one at the photographic studio on Twcnty-second street, and the other in the Twenty-fOurth street house where, as Mrs. Thaw twice tes- tifed. that while luncheons and wines were served during her posing at the Twenty second street place, nothing out of the ordinary occurred.
 Tomorrow Thaw's will and codicil made at the time of his marriage will be proved and introduced as evidence Then will follow the testimony oI Miss Belle Lawrence of California. who was Thaw's teacher when he was six years old He could not talk in telligably 1t is said. Miss Lawrence kept a diary in which there are many entries concerning Thaw. An effort will be made to get this in evidence
 Mrs. William Thaw is expected to complete the testimony. The insanity experts should be reached on Thurs

He Talks to the Democrats of Kentucky
 Legislature Behind Closed Doors
If He Should Be President He Would Like to Have Such Dependable Man as Beckham for United States Senator.

Frankfort Ken. Jan 21.-The climax of Bryan's visit to Frankfort was reached this afternoon when he spoke to the democratic members of the legislature behind closed doors. advo- eating the election of Former Govern or Beckham as United States senator. Bryan said that neither Beckham nor anybody else had invited him to Frankfort He said:
 "I may be the candidate this year. but l do not know Only two dele gates have been elected. and they have been instructed for me. but they are not enough to elect me. I am here. because l believe the candidate of the democratic party has a good chance to be elected this year. I don't know who the democratic standard bearer may be. but know that it takes a dem ocratic senate and house to uphold the president
 'I don't want to be president simply to sit in the chair. but to do something for the people. All the popularity of the republican president has come from his adopting the democratic prin- ciples of reform. We cannot rely very much on the republican senators. We may get the house, but it will require an overwhelming victory to get a sen ate for democratic reform On the vote of one senator may rest the fate of democratic principles. For a gen. eration we have had a government under corporate control. This govern ment was sold to the highest bidder, and since that time the saturnalian feast has extended to Washington.
