ARE AMERICANS HONEST!
That manufacturers will deliver by
prepaid freight merchandise to the value
of several hundred dollars to individuals
in any part of the United States, without
the deposit or prepayment of single
dollar, is a startling fact that is some
thing of a puzzle to the conservative
business man.
1t is true. however, and the expert
ences of several mail-order houses in
sending pianos on 3o-day trial to anyone
anywhere have proved that the Ameri-
can people are honest These expert
ences have demonstrated that this
method is pursued with practically no
losses and an enormous increase in the
business of those houses which endeavor
to place really high-grade pianos IN
American homes.

A ISLANDER ON UTAH
Are the Stories Published Re-
garding the Presidents
Trip There.
A STATEMENT BY SM0OT

Washington. Nov. 4.-Echoes of the
trip of President Taft through Utah
were heard in Washington, when Sena-
tor Smoot, who has just returned from
the Presidential trip down the Missis-
sippi river, declared that sensational
publications in regard to the trip had
been sent out for political effect Ac-
cording to the senator, the Mormons
did not try to monopolize the president
and the accounts to that effect were a
gross SANDER on the state
Governor Spry. Senator Sutherland
and myself called together 30 or more
of the leading citizens of Utah to ap-
point a committee on arrangements for
the presidents VISIT explained the
senator.
"A committee of % was chosen. of
which II were non-Mormons and 8
were Mormons.
"A committee of eight. to go in A
private car to meet the president at
Helper, near the Colorado line. was
appointed, and of these five were non.
Mormons and three Mormons.
The change in arrangements by
which introduced the president at the
tabernacle instead of Mayor Brans-
ford, was made with the full agreement
of all concerned and because the Mayor
stated he was not feeling we'll and
would have to cancel part of the pro-
gram. The statement that Governor
Spry and myself refused to enter the
Unitarian church with the president is
a wicked falsehood Both of us were
present, the governor sitting on the
presidents right. The chief justice of
the supreme court sat on the left, with
Mayor Bransford and myself in line.
In short, the sensational reports
sent broadcast over the country of en-
barrassing situations and charging an
attempt by the Mormons to monopo-
lie the president had not the slightest
foundation in fact. A glance at the
presidents engagements while in Utah
and an analysis of the membership of
the committees which had charge Of
him completely disproved these state
ments. Utah has been grossly SIAN
dered in this connection"
