THE ISSUE IS MIXED.

There is lively interest IN this coun-
try, and very properly so, in the coming
English elections. But there is quite a
common misapprehersion, to the effect
that the question VIII be presented TO
the British public squarely and fairly
on the revenue bill which was the bone
of contention between the Commons
and the Lords, and which caused the
dissolution of Parliament and the issue
Of writs for a new election,
But in Great Britain, as in this coun-
try, there is always n multiplicity of
other issues, some of them in this case
of more or less controlling force with
the electors, besides what is supposed
by the American public 10 be the main
question submitted The House Of
Lords in claiming that the new election
will practically be n referendum for the
budget, is uttering deception, The
election will by no means be on that
single issue. AS pointed out by the
Springfield Republican, Irish home rule
will cut strong figure; woman s suf-
frace is sure TO have its influence; re-
lipious education Will be campaign cry
in some places; the public regulation of
the liquor traffic, the contention be-
tween those who want big navy in
crease and those who do not; protection
VS.. free trade labor legislation; and
in fact, any question whatever that the
public wishes TO discuss, oppose, or
make an issue, is bound 70 come in. il
will be in Great Britain precisely as in
tions. We have had in the near past
burning issues on tariff, on imperialism,
on the control Of corporations, on cur
rcncy and money and the silver question,
and great number of questions Of
more or less potency in the different
people and all having their influence
and their results It will be precisely
the same in the Parliamentary cleo
tions in Great Britain next month
Home rule viii be the main question in
Ireland Religious education will have
strong influence in Scotland and
Wales In England the proicctional fea-
ture, with Joseph Chamberlain in the
background sponsoring it, will have a
very strong effect. II is quite likely
that in England the battle will he very
largely wagcd on the question of pro-
lection or free trade as well as on the
budget. In some constituencies the la
Dor issue will be the leading one.
And so the preteDse Of the Lords that
the election will be referendum on the
revenue budget is very largely fallacy.
Doubtless, however, the present Min
istry will cndeavor TO confine the issue
as much as possible to the budget. But
that will be quite impossible. IT is

INQUIRY AS TO DANITES-

"We have written for further par
ticulars.'' said the Deseret News on
December s, 1909, when making edi-
torial comment upon a DANTE story
which had previously appeared IN the
columns of a Pittsburg newspaper.
There is no desire to hurry the News
in this matter; but The Tribune sug'
gests that when the church organ shall
have received the information for which
it has applied it should permit no delay
in making the same public. We infer
from the tone OF the News at the
time, that its application was made to
source from which it could depend
upon getting the facts concerning the
organization in the Mormon church
which has been variously named
"Danphters of Zion, - Danites.' and
Destroying Angels The public is
entitled to any and all advices received
by the News as a result Of its inquiry,
simply TO set at rest Il controversy that
so far has found no settlement in the
minds of the unadvised,
The Tribune has asserted, and has
produced proofs in support of that as
sertion, that there was a secret aveng-
ing organization in the Mormon church
at Far West, Missouri; that this or
ganization continued in existence
through the days succeeding into Nau-
VOC and even into the early days
in Utah. The News has denied this
assertion in toto until recently, when
in the article referred to it admitted
that there was such an organization,
but not that it was within the Mormon
church.
Now it has written for information
upon the matter, so 1t says; and 1T is
to he hoped that it Will print every
word of the correspondence which it
may receive in response to its inquiry.
Every interested person is entitled to
it; and we suggest to the church organ
that if it fails TO print all of the CORE
spondence, The Tribune will.

A CHRISTMAS INVITATION.
The time is far spent,
There is little remaining

If Elder Joseph f. Taylor has never
sung the hymn commencing with those
two lines, we have no doubt but he has
made quite as earnest an effort TO do so
as would be devoted to similar task
by Apostle Heber j. Grant, provided
merely that the notion-as would be
the case with IIcber-ever entered his
head to determine to accomplish the i'm
possible.
But what we mean TO say herein is
quite another thing, although the quot
ed hymn lines are pertinent,
The Tribune has made Christian
like suggestion TO Elder Taylor. That
suggestion has been TO the effect that
Christmastide is within halling distance; {;
that he, once upon n time, made offer
to pay reward of one thousand dol
lars to The Tribune for any successful
effort on our part to prove up a case
of new polygamy IN the Mormon
church, His brother in the gospel, Elder
Joseph w. Musser, was named by this
paper as one Of the offenders. Elder
Taylor was not content TO accept our
assertion as being the truth; but we
desire to inquire now if he will accept
the verdict of q court composed of the
priesthood Of his own church, He can
learn. if he so desires. that Elder Mus
ser has been enthusiastically convicted
of the crime of new polygamy, In the
trial Of that case, doubtless, every one
of E'1Inr rox,1cr'c
He will realize, through the operations
of an intelligent mind, that The Tribune
is responsible for this ecclesiastical con-
victiou, because in the absence of eX-
posure by tins paper no conviction of
whatever nature would have occurred,
for the simple reason that no investlga
ton would have been made. In that
view of the matter, The Tribune has
contended that it has honestly earned
one iustallment of one thousand dollars
Of that reward money which Elder Tay-
lor offered, and with which he an
nounced he was so plentifully supplied
that il The Tribune should become as
successful as il was industrious in this
matter he would make Of this institu-
ton wondrously wealthy concern
But this paper is not at all selfish in
the matter, even though Elder Taylor s
characteristically polygamous style in
making mis- offer of reward could be
pleaded in justification of determine
tion TO merely ''take the money away
from him without regard to what pur-
pose it might be put However, we
have made counter offer (since VIC
have fairly made our case good), to the
effect that any money which Elder Tav.
lor would feel obligated to pay over TO
this paper shall be distributed throug

The BELGIAN SUCCESSION.

There is not likely to he any very
serious contest over the succession to
the Belgian throne. The heir presump'
tive is Prince Albert, who was born
April s, 1878. He has long been recog-
nized as the successor TO Leopold, and
he will unquestionably be sworn in on
the date given, next Thursday. without
opposition.
BY Leopold IS first and only legal mar
riage he had three children-all girls
Princess Louise, Princess Stephanie, and
Princess Clemcntinc. BY his connection
with Baroness Vaughan, King Leopold
had two sons, both infants now. This,
however, was an irregular and illegal
connection from the first. Even thong h
the Vatican may have recognized the
marriage year ago, this must have
been through church ceremony which
would satisfy the ecclesiastical require.
ments The two sons of this connection
were born out of wedlock and of course
could not lay claim TO the succession,
while the daughters are excluded from
the throne under the Salic law.
Prince Albert is now in his thirtieth
year. He was born April s, 1873. He
is the son of Leopold S brother Philippe,
Count of Flanders. Prince Albert mar
ried October 2. 1900, Princess Elizabeth
of Bavaria. This couple have three
children. Prince Leopold, born Novem-
Der 3, 1901, Prince Charles, born Oc-
tober 10, 1903, and Princess Marie
Jose, born August A. 1906,
Prince Albert is popularly supposed
TO be an entirely different sort OF man
from his uncle, King Leopold. The
Prince is man Of the people, some
thing of socialist, mixes readily with
his subjects, and is popular with all
classes, unless it may be with the more
exclusive of the nobility, who deplorc

it is not always safe to assume that
a man as king would he the same as
he was before the kingship came to

tion that Prince Albert would be the
same man and have the same ways and
opinions rs king of the Belglans that
lie had while merely Prince waiting for
the throne. However, the Belgians will
doubtless hope for the best, and trust
that Prince Albert will remain the same
kindly, warm-hearted, sociable, peace
loving gentleman that he has thus far
proved himself to be. If so, the change
in the kingship will be an extremely
happy one for the Belgian people,

at all it was doubtless recognized as

fact, give the children no right to the
