A SAMPLE "REVELATIoN." :"

In the eighty-fourth section of the
Doctrine and Covenants, paragraph five
are the following words regarding the
| temple to be built in Missouri: "Fol
verify this generation shall not al
pass away until an house shall be built
unto the Lord, and cloud shall rest
upon it, which cloud shall be even the
glory of the Lord, which shall fill the
house, This "revelation was re-
ceived September %. 1892, at Kirkland
Ohio, and gives instructions about lay
ing out the building which would be
the principal edifce for the church. If
the words of that revelation mean what
they say, then they have been proved
to be false, as seventy eight years have
passed, which is surely more than this
! generation
There are many people in Utah who
remember having been promised by
such men as President Brigham Young
John Taylor, and Wilford Woodruff
that they would live TO see Christ re
turn, and in SO living they would be
transformed into celestial beings with
out tasting death These promises were
always made in the name of God, and
with great solemnity. But the majority
who were promised have died the physi
cal death, while the others are rapidly
going the way of all flesh. These
promises are like many revelations;
they have failed. Christ has been ex
pected by the saints for years. but
likely they have learned by experience
that He did not give the prophet the
right words, and that consequently
been wrong.
Good saints of high and low standing
in the church fondly pictured the pillar
Of fire that would rest on the temple oi
the Lord when it was built in Missouri
how the angels would stand constant
guard over the structure TO keep the
evil spirits away. With these chimera:
have been exploited the terrible lot
that all not in the church would receive
especially those who fought against tht
saints or who apostatized. The old story
about the lightning striking the hant
of one of the prophet s assassins, and iti
whitening up, the gloomy lies regarding
the fateful ending of all the leading
prosecutors" Of the prophet, belong
with these fairy stories invented by
diseased brains. What do the saints
think Of such ridiculous nonsense
l What prophecies have the saints go
that have any merit in them9 Every
one which has been printed (and al
others are too coarse to permit it) whel
uncovered reveals the same stamp o.
childish ignorance, and cunning trust il
other people IS knowing no more
I That temple will have to be sooI
built or century will not measure tn,
generation which the revelation speaks

THE NEW POLYGAMISTS.
We have received the following query
from friend in Utah county;

|
| Pleasant Grove, July ..
Editor Tribunc.-In your semi weekly
| issue in the last few months has ap-
peared several times a long and formda-
are rcputod 10 have taken wives in
polysamy since the Woodruff manifesto
OF 1890, and while that list Is an appall-
ing one; IT is doubtful if you got them
| all. What we would like TO know is
nave amy OF them so charged in your list
come forward and denied the accusat atIon
| 1T so, how many Answering. YOU VIII
obltsc. SUBSCRIBER.
Replying to tho query we would say
chat The Tribune made up its list of
polygamists and printed it in a Mon
day morning daily a little over n month
ago Not one of that list reputed TO
have taken wives in polygamy since
tho Woodruff manifesto of 1890 has
admitted, and, as we believe, in every
case the charge was absolutely true.
With respect TO our correspondent s
suggestion that it is doubtful if we have
"got them all, - we have stated right
along that it is sure thing that we
have not got them all We doubt if
we have the names of onetenth of
those who have gone into polygamy
since the anti-polygamy manifesto of
1890. 1t stands TO reason that we have
not. that we have succeeded in getting
the names Of only a few scattered ones
here and there. Every ono who is ia
miliar with the situation knows that
the polygamous marriages are surround
ed with such precautions in the way of
secrecy; everyone knows that all con-
cerned in them are so ready with de-
malls where there is the least chance
to deny, that we are sure there are at
least ten cases in fact, where we have
obtained one for publication.
1t is no wonder that that long list
of polygamists newly entered into
polygamous marriages since the anti
poygamy manifesto of 1890, has at
tracted widespread attention. We hear
of it from east to west and north and
south. The most widely circulated Jour
nails in the East have taken notice of
the publication, and have wondered
that such list as that could be pre-.
sented in the face of the Mormon de-
malls 1t is no wonder that our CORE
spondent asks the question which he
does; but that list was published in alb
solute good faith, and we feel sure now,
as we did then, that as far as 1T goes,
it is absolutely correct. The only trou-
BILE is that it does not 90 far enough.
If we could print the names of all of
the men who have gone into polygamy
since the manifesto Of 1890, we surely
believe that it would take a full page
of this paper, in small type.

SOUTH DAKOTA INsURGENT.

We see that South Dakota is abso.
lutely "insurgent.'' There is mere
perfuuctory or half way Endorsement
OF tho Taft administration, with clear,
absolute shout for the Roosevelt pol
iclcs,' with tremendous blow deliv-
cred against the "stand pattcrs' on
the tariff. The South Dakota Rcpubli,
cans declare for an immediate revision
of the tariff law, but coucede that the
present Aldrich- Payne production is ga
step in the right direction but should
have gone further, which must have
been compromise on the part of the
South Dakota Republicans. because the
in any direction except an increase in
the people s burdens and "A fostering
of trusts and monopolies.
The further declaration Of the South
Dakota Republicans for the physical
valuation of railroads will very likely
up that plank of the platform will
hardly bo prepared to see.
The declaration for graduated in
come tax is first-class. That for a Fed
cral system of regulating corporations
is merely foreshadowing Of something
that is bound to come.
That for the conservation Of national
resources will depend entirely on the
way in which it is enforced. If it is
enforced in the Garfield. Pinchot way,
it will be oppressive on the people and
an unlawful denial of tho rights and
privileges of the settlers.
The South Dakota Republicans are
evidently wakened up and can be de.
pended upon to do their own thinking,
and do it with western independence
and candor.

OUR AMERICAN TRADE.

We see a statement that the exports
have risen from 161a per cent of the ag,
grogate exports ten years ago to over
26 per cent of such exports now. We
have exported to American countries
the last year upwards of 100000
of our goods. In twenty years those
countries have increased their imports
| from the United States more than 250
per cent, which is three times the gain
made unler this head in the same length
of time by other countries.
And yet we do not cater especially
to the trade of our American neighbors
Our manufacturers and exporters re
fuse to pack goods as the natives of
those countries require; they refuse
to cater To the local demand in any
way. The consequence is that we lose
large portion of that trade to the
Germans, the English, and the French
We read recently the report of trav-
eler in the State of Sinaloa, Mexico
showing that for the mines there and
had to be put up into packages that
could be carried on mule back, on
trails, because there were no roads in
the mountains. The Americans send in
large packages and sometimes machin-
cry IN such weight that transportation
is impossible. The American shippers
send according to their own notions
and not according to the requirements
Of the buyers. The result is that while
American goods are preferred, their
goods have to be repacked for trans
portation to interior points. The Ger
mans, the French, and the English, on
tho other hand, pack as directed, and
the goods can be loaded on the mule
trains Just as they are delivered, And
this is general complaint from all
the South American countries; Ameri'
cans pay no attention to orders as to
packing, but pack goods according to
their own customs, the easiest way for
themselves. Unquestionably, if the
American manufacturers and shippers
would conform to the local requirements
in this matter, American trade could be
expanded tremendously almost at once.
The Department of Commerce and
Labor is doing its best to cure this evil,
by repeated iniunctions to American
shippers to ship goods in styles and
packages as demanded in the localities
to which the goods are consigned. With
due attention to this requirement, which
we trust will become general, the fu~
ture Of American trade in American
countries will be assured, and America
will have the practical monopoly of
that trade.

no reason, then, why tho Government
should issue 2M per cent bonds; for it
could and should Just as well issue 9
per cent bonds, paving in the routine
way by tho Department the expenses
of handling the savings funds. 1t
would make no difference whatever TO
the government in the long run. whoth-
or it took the money out of one pocket
in the first place to pay the cost of
handling these deposits, or whether it
should require the Treasury to pay the
additional "a per cent interest and hand
the money over to the Posioflico De-
partment. But one thing would be sure
IN that event; the Government could
never get out of debt rs long rs this
Jaw remains in force.

RECLAMATION DELAYS.

1t may be that the programme Of
Secretary Ballinger with respect to the
reclamation projects in hand will work
out advantagcously III the end. but GER
;alnly they arc disappointing at pres
cnt, since they seem to point to delays
that can be i'll supported by those who
have taken up Government land under
reclamation projects and who are losing
their crops year by year because of the
Government failure to supply them
with irrigation water
The proposition to have these projects
looked over by army engineers before
the Department decides what to do
about them. is discouraging, There is
nothing to be hoped for, evidently. the
present year. Mr. Newell, the present
head of the reclamation service. of
course. can do nothing IN view of his
imminent removal; he is slated to go.
But il seems TO MS that the part of wis
dom would be to retain him in his pres
ent position with orders to push the re-
clamation work as already planned and
under way, with the utmost dispatch,
so that the Government can, as soon
as possible, redeem its pledges to the
settlers who have trusted in its promise
to give them needed water for their
crops.
The removal of Director Newell and
the holding up of the projects until
army engineers can investigate and re-
port on them, which appears to be the
programme, holds out small hope of any
speedy relief 10 those settlers who are
hanging on, losing their crops year by
year, IN the hope that the Government
will do what 1T agreed to do while they
are yet able to hang on. AS it is, they
are under great disa ability as compared
with those who have taken up lands
under private projects. They can not
assign, they can not realize on any
thing they have as settlers can do who
have located claims on private or col
ony projects, and some of these settlers
under the Government reclamation
scheme are in despair as to their pros
poets.
1t is not only necessary to have re-
lief, but in large number of cases it
is necessary that relief shall be speedy,
and we trust that Secretary Ballinger s
tour of the West, which he is scheduled
TO take, and TO inspect therein a
number of reclamation projects, will
be effective towards speeding along the
relief needed by the settlers under
these Government reclamation projects.
