TITHING REQUIsITIoNs

Ii is an interesting circular letter
that we have before MS, signed by the
presidency of the Juab stake of Zion
and the bishopric Of the Second ward
of Nephi, Utah II has to do with the
matter of tithing

payers and parttthe payers. says this
circular 1t urges the people TO pay
their tithing as they receive their in.
come. If Il man receives his wages
weekly he is admonished TO pay his
tithlng weekly; il his check comes TO
him monthly, he is urged that it is has
duty to pay his tenth "to the
Lord" (O monthly AS to paying "in
kind" he is told that when his chick
ems lay eggs the Lord would like to
have them fresh; and that butter is
much more agreeable to the heavenly
palate when not rank-that the tenth
pound should be turned in as soon as
churned. And so it goes on down the
entire gamut Of productiveuess, always,
YOU must understand. "with an eye
single to the glory of the Lord"
But there is one thing contained in
that circular letter that seems to con-
tradiCt frequent outgivings of the Nor
mon leaders, pulpiteers and publiclsts
For instance, in an interview printed in
the Piitsburg Times, President Joseph
f, Smith said of tithing: "It is not
exacted from the church. 1t is vol,
untary Offering" But this circular
which we have before us declares
"When We wait until the end of the
year 1T very often occurs that we are
unable to settle fully the OBLIGATION
TO PAY ONE,TENTH OF OUR IN
TEREST, WHICH WE HAVE COVE
NANTED WITH THE LORD TO DO
Could it be more plainly stated that
the payment of tithing is compulsory
Besides, it ought to be apparent to in,
telligent persons that the tithe gather
ers care nothing about the welfare of
the tithe payers. II man at the end
of the year would be unable to pay to
the church one.tenth Of all that he had
earned, it would be because he had been
ODnpeu 10 use tne money IN Ihp susie
nance of himself and family in de
cency. The request that be pay weekly
or monthly secures the tithe grabbers
in "theirs,' although the contributor
may by this means be obliged to de-
prive himself and his family. But, look
you, the deprivation is not SO much
felt when spread out over the entire
twelvemonth as when it comes all in a
lump. Therefore perpetual near-star'
walton, if it shall procure a full tenth
of the earnings Of a Latter-day Saint
to the hierarch, is preferable TO inabil'
ity to settle at the end of the year be
cause the contributor had kept food
in his children s stomachs, clothing
upon their backs and shoes upon their
feet.
However, the tone of the circular re
ferred to indicates that the Mormon
people arc becoming bit chary of pay
ing money into unaccounting hands
and that is to be taken as an indica'
ton that they are becoming more rea'
sonable and are less liable to fall vic
tins to the hierarchical gold brick

AND STILL THEY COME.

III has been said of The Tribune that
in the matter of new polygamy it finds
d never-e ending supply of material for
controversy. That is perfectly natural,
since it appears that there is no end to
the list of new polygamsts. Here are
some more names that have not here.
tofore been published in this counec-
ton:
Elder Brigham Stowell was a polyg-
amist before the manifesto, but appar-
emily he thought that something fur
ther i'll the way of lawbreaking was
due from him IN order to establish
himself as a faithful follower of the
cult into which he had been inducted.
He was one of those Utah Mormons
who went down to settle up Mexico as
a principality in the kingdom of God,
At that time he had two wives, sisters
by the name of Bybee. In the year
1897. after having lived in Mexico
long enough to "prove himself worthy
he took a third wife In the person of
Miss Ella Skousen, of the numerous
family of that name that has added so
materially to the polygamistic ranks.
Elder Byron Sessions lives at Byron,
Big Horn county, Wyoming. He is pres
ident of the Big Horn stake, and is
man about 80 years old. In the year
1907 he married very young woman
as plural wife, After the unlawful
marriage the girl was sent to Salt
Lake, where child was born of her,
and where she is said to be now liv-
ing

having been performed by his father,
the late Apostle Mariner w. Merrill.
Elder William Young, who now lives
at Grayson, Utah. took second wife
at Juarez, Mexico, in 1902, Her name
was Miss Laura Haws. and her home
was at Pacheco. Young was a polyga
nous failure, however, for his second
wife left him and has since married

Elder Abraham Done of Dublan mar
ried polygamously in 1897 widow by
the name of Dobeg. This was in Utah,
and he Immediately moved to Mexico.
In 1902 he married as his third wife
Miss Ellen Mofit, girl of but seven
teen years of age, while he was over 90.
Of course, there are but five names
in this little batch, but added to those
which we have already printed they
bring the total up to one hundred and
thirtyfve. 1t is fairly good showing
along the line of proof that there is in
the Mormon church recrudescence of
the olygamous practice. And when we
come to think that these probably do
not represent one in ten Of the actual
cases, the magnitude of the renewal is
sufficient to command the attention of
the entire Nation. That the church
approves and protects these criminals
is amply attested in the fact that not
one accommodation has been had in
the church upon charge of polygamy,
new or old

proved polygamists hold sway or exert

SCANLAN MAY
Be GIVEN FULL
CHARGE AGAIN
Mining Man Believed to Have
Recovered His Faculties and
Is Able TO Manage His Own
Affairs,

TUCSON y July 22:-It is believed
John Seaman win once more be the
manager of his own affairs. after a
year of dependency upon a guardian
and a nurse.
Action to restore Seaman to the
administration of his affairs was
commenced today before Probate
Judge Cooper through a petition filed
by Scanlan's attorney, John B.
Wright to have the fact of the aged
mining mans restoration to capacity
judicially determined. Judge Coop
er appointed a medical commission
consisting of three physicians. DR..
Ray Ferguson DIR. C. A Schrader,
and DR.. /. E. Huffman, to make a de-
tailed mental examination of Scan
Ian and submit a report upon their
findings as TO his competency.
The commission rendered the re-
port this afternoon finding, it is
stated. that Seaman though a year
ago incompetent to manage his af-
fairs, because of indulgence in alco-
hol prolonged PHYSICAL privaion,
and old age, has now fully recovered
his mental faculties after a year Of
careful abstinence from liquor ac-
companied by proper care and nour-
ishment.
The report will not become a mat
ter Of record however. until it is for
mally submitted under oath tomor-
row and is vouched for with suitable
evidence.
Todays action in the case aside
from the appointment of the medical
commission. consistedin an account
ing of the estate which was ap-
proved
The remaining steps depend upon
the restoration or non-restoration of
Seaman to competency. Judge Cooper
states. If the miner is restored. the
present guardian August Kegel will
be discharged and the entire estate
turned back to Seaman. In that event
one Of his assets will be a claim
against Miss Marian Malarky for
about $4,000 alleged to have been
expended in the course of her trav-
elswith Seaman. If Seaman should
not be declared restored. that claim
against Miss Malarky will remain to
be settled in some other way, Judge
Copper states.

dead man. sleeping alongside of him
when the bolt entered the tent, escap-
ing by the narrow margin of a few
inches The shock brought the brother
to his feet in an instant and as re-
markable as it may seem, he exper-
fenced not the least discomfort from
the terrific contract.
The man was struck by the bolt

Few minutes afterward the corpse as
sumed a very blaeq color. The be-
lief of those who examined the re-
mains was that every bone in the
body was shivered TO atoms.
Immediately after the sad occur
renee the surviving brother left for
Seligman about twenty-five miles dis
tant, to give the alarm. Judge Stiv-
ers and several others accompanied
him to the place where an inquest
was held, and the above facts

The. unfortunate young man with
his brother. were recent arrivals In

1t is the intention of the company
to cut the tract up into town lots,
open up wide streets build cement

A trolley line through the tract

placed on every lot but just what

hold of it, as this fact alone MAKES
it certain of success.
