Volume Five
ChurchHiS tory
Published by the Church With Intro
duction by Elder B. III. Robers.

This volume deals with the history
of the Church from May 8. 1912, to
31st of August. 1S43 It. therefore.
covers n period of about sixteen
months. The main external events
may be set down as follows: First.
exposure of the wickedncss OF John
c. Bennett, and his departure from
Nauvoo; cd the charge against the
Prophet Joseph of completely In an at
tempted assassination of ex-governor
LIlburn w. Boggs. under whose cele-
brated eXterminating order the body
of the Church was driven from Mis-
souri, (3j the attempt OF the state
OF Missouri to extradite the Prophet
from the state of Illinois. to be tried
as an accessory before the fact to an
assault on Ex-Governor Boggs; (4)
second attempt on the part of Mis-
souri, to eXtraditc the Prophet from
the state OF Illinois on tho old charge
of murder. treason. burglary. arson,
larceny. theft and stealing" first
brought against him in the year 1888;
CD preliminary prospecting of the
west doubtless with view to the
contemplated removal of tho Saints
to the Rocky Mountains.
OF events that relate more nearly to
the Church as an organization there
should be mentioned: % the intro
duction of the endowment ceremonies
and enlarged instructions on the sub
ject of baptism for the dead:
CD an extension of auxiliary
organization by bringing Into existence
the Young Mons and Women's So
ciety.
Another item of great interest in
this volume Is the manifest develop
ment or tho character and spiritual
strength OF tho Prophet during this
period. The trying experiences
through which he passed seemed 10
discover new qualities of soul power
WITHIN him. and to emphasize those
which he was known to have possess
ed.
Tho doctrinal development of tho
period covered by this volume deals
With several items which may be re-
garded as preliminary to that richer
unfolding OF philosophical thought to
which the last year of tho Prophets
teaching was so largely devoted.

For Freight Privileges.

In preparing for the regular meeting
of the city council tonight. the streets
and municipal laws committee met
at o'clock this afternoon to draw up
a resolution granting the Utah Light
& Railroad company a franchise to
haul freight over It's line to Fort
Douglas between the hours of a. m.
and p m. The committees will also
talk over the franchise requested by
the Salt Lake &c Los Angeles railroad
for a double track and electric line
franchise over the city streets, and to

Councilmen Ferry. Hall and Martin
have been named as special COM

ing against 1t and it Is understood that
Mayor John S. Bransford Is opposed
to 1t The mayor Is willing. however,
to have limit placed upon the resolu-
ton allowing the hauling of freight
over its line during the winter months
The committees will probably be able
to repor tonight on a skeleton
franchise ,or the Saltair road. There
are a good many points in the
franchise asked for that the council
men will ask to have explained.
Mayor Bransfords veto Of the Is
free lights for the Newhouse Realty
company to place around the New
house buildings will come before the
council tonight. 1t Is believed that the
mayors veto will be sustained because
in his veto he has shown the council
where it would establish a bad precc-
dent.
The council also has number of
estimates, and considerable routine
matter to dispose of at the session to-
night. The board of arbitrators is
working on the bill of P. j. Moran
for $20,458.67 on the outlet sewer but

friends say the campaign against him
is due to personal spite Of politicians.
The recall election was of unusual
interest. because 1t WAS the first ever

and 1905. Under the charter the
mayors term is two years, but he
