Why don I you furnish the proof?''
is asked by many persons who have not
heretofore read The Tribune Is thorough
explanation of the many circumstances
which go to prevent possible conviction
of new polygamists without the aid of
church officials. Let us again give one
example which may serve briefly to
convince the public that the require
ment practically demanded in that qucs-
tion is an entirely unfair one.
At one time In the long-ag of Utah
Il plural wife was contending for her
dover rights upon the death Of her po-
lygamous husband, It was necessary
for her to prove her relationship to the
man. In order to do so she went to
the church officials and requested Ger.
tifcate showing her marriage. At first
she was denied the paper, for the reason
that it is the inviolable rule OF the
church not to utter written evidence IN
its own secret archives. But upon the
threat of the woman to "kick up a
row about it," and the man having
been dead and beyond the reach of the
law, the following was given TO her, writ
ten in lead pencil on scrap of note
paper:
"Susannah Baird to Robert Pierce; En-
dowmcnt House, Nov. 81, 1872, Married
by Brigham Young. j. D. T. McAllistcr,
D. H. Wells" witnesses
And so far as we have been able to
learn, that is the only poIygamous mar,
riage certificate (sIch as il isl, that
was ever issued by the Mormon church
So, as VIC say, it is unfair to ask The
Tribune to furnish convicting evidence

LONDON, Oct. 21.-The testi-
mony of Dr.. Hawley H. Crippen,
charged with the murder of his
wife, Belle Elmore Crippen, was
concluded today. and in spite of a
grilling cross-examination, the de-
fendant, it is believed, impressed
the jury favorably.
Throughout his ordeal Crippen
remained cool and collected, and
except for a pallor of the face,
there was little to indicate the
strain the American was undergo
ing. He took Prosecutor Muirs
fiery cross-examination almost
philosophically.
Muir's effort to force Crippen
to admit that none but himself
could have buried the human body
found in the cellar of his home
was a complete failure. Crippen
banded words with the prosecu-
tor with consummate skill and his
answers showed careful thought.

function of curtailing the power

Facts Kept From People.
For five years last past the
Washington supreme court has
been an object of suspicion. For 2
years last past it has been the CEN
ter of cyclone of stories of scan
dal and corruption. Whether there
is much or little truth in these
stories the people of the state
have not been permitted official
ly to determine. Time after time
efforts have been made to have
