According to the last year book
of the department of agriculture
there are 21,72O,OOO milch COWS in
the United States, and these are
worth 7O2,945,0O0.00. The mag
nitude Of the industry can perhaps
be best understood when it is con-
sidered that these cows produce
yearly about $1,00O,000,0 10000
worth of dairy product.
There is no other branch OF diver
si6ed agriculture 80 important to
the progress of the community. The
fertility of the soil can best be
maintained by the liberal use OF
BARNARD manure and the dairy
herd not only makes this possible
but dairying is also more remuner-
alive than other branches of farm
ing when properly carried on.
Dairying has made wonderful
progress since the advent OF the
modern creamery and the consumer

THEIR HONOR AT STAKE.

Young men and young women of the
Mutual Improvement associations Of the
Mormon church are in general confer
cnce in this city; and now that they
are here, The Tribune feels it to be a
duty TO make some presentations to
them that may be of benefit.
Most of these young people are aware
Of the conditions under which, between
the years 1890 and 1896, the church
and the non. Mormon citizenship of this
country arrived at such understanding
and agreements as finally resulted III
bringing Statehood to Utah. Above
all, the young men and young women of
the church are most vitally interested
in seeing to it that the compacts then
made should be fulfilled. Their future
progress and happiness depend upon
faithful adherence by the church to the
pledges given by which this common
wealth achieved the full rights of
American sovereignty, Their own
honor and the honor of the organiza-
tion to which they belong is at stake.
pie of today and of the future depends
upon honest observance Of the contract
Some Of these young men and young
women know that their church leaders
are repudiating those Statehood
pledges, while a few of them possibly
are not aware Of this fact. The truth
is that church funds are still being
used in competition with private money
in all manner Of business affairs. The
influence of these officials derived
from their ecclesiastical position is ex.
erted In favor of certain business in.

Germs that arc not favored with their

ecclesiastical interference in the politi-
cal affairs of this State. Polygamy is
again flourishing in the church, as has
been demonstrated in tho exposure of
one hundred and four undenied cases
since the manifesto, and which num-
Der undoubtedly does not represent ten
per cent Of the total, were they all
known. 1t is admitted that these of.
fenses are against the law Of the land
and the command of the Almighty; but
they are neither punished under the
law nor rectifed by the church, 1t is

church if he desired to stop it, as he is

GERMANY AWAKENING.

The Tribune has received a transla-
tion of an article recently appearing in
German periodical, dealing with the
activities of the Mormon missionaries
in Germany.
1t appears that the German people
are awakening TO the fact that many of
these proselyters travel under assumed
names in order to escape being driven
out of the country. In fact, it seems
that the Germans are of the opinion
that even when the missionaries call
themselves Latter.day { ints. instead
Of Mormons, they are attempting to
masquerade as a body, let alone indi-
vidually. In that country the spirit of
patriotism runs high, and love for the
Fatherand is iuculcated increasingly.
1t is therefore with some severity that
the German publication alluded TO con
demns the practice Of the missionaries
in attempting TO ALLEVIATE their converts
and drag them over to this country
away from their native land. In other
respects Mormonsim is looked upon as
a menace to the people of Germany
and to the inhabitants of the earth gen
orally and there is a movement on foot
to oppose the cult wherever it may es-
tablish itself in the German empire.
Doubtless it requires much longer time
TO reach the truth in Europe, in so far
as the acts of the Mormon church in
Utah are concerned; but even then the
people finally become advised and the
missionaries have n harder time than
ever before in making converts. In
this case the German paper has no
doubt been impelled to warn the people
against class of missionaries who may
be expelled today under one name, and
who next week will turn up in the same
locality under an assumed name,
The thing about it all that is to be
most regretted is the fact that it is the
missionaries who suffer-not the men
who cause them to engage IN deceitful
practices and who teach them to lie.

POPULATION OF THE CITY.

An employee OF the census office foi
bis oath by giving to the Smoot paper
here the estimation Of population OF
Salt Lake City, gained by his accessl
bihty TO the returns in the office The
figures he gives arc 81 ,6Sl. Probably
these figures arc not accurate, but Ut Is
likely that they do not miss the mark
very much. There was an attempt IN
the Smoot organ to cover up the
duplicitv of the betrayal here Of the
official secrets, by pretending that the
figures came from Washington; but TINS
deceived no one, If they came from
Washington, they must have come
through private channels and doubtless
were furnished here first, so that the
transmission from Washington by wire
would be merely blind. Director OF
thc Census, Hon. T.. Dana Durand,
wires The Tribune that tho popnla-
ton figures of Salt Lake did not come
from Washington so that settles that
part of it.
That the betrayal was in the office
here is clearly the opinion of Census
Supervisor McMillin, who denounced
the betrayal in the warmest terms But
Mr. McMillin makes no charges against
any one. He, however, dismisses his
chief clerk, who had been in office but
one day, taking the place of Mr. Frank
NJ, Eldrcdge, resigned; so that as the
Supervisor says, "thc public may draw
its own conclusions.
There is no suggestion on The part of
Supervisor McMillin that the figures
printed in the Smoot paper came from
Washington. He assumes, as Of course
everyone must assume, that they come
from his office. Indeed, the Smoot
organ practically admitted the same,
when it said that Supervisor McMillin
had not yet forwarded his official re-
port. 1t is nasty piece of official
whoever is guilty of it, and
one that is liable TO bring rigorous
on the guilty person.
II the figures betrayed to the Smoot
paper of tho perjured employee are
correct, the gain in population of this
city in the last ten years, has been
IS, $50 Assuming that the rest of the
State has gained as much, the popula-
tion of the whole State is now 34l 300,
which brings it very close to the esti-
mate made in Washington unofficially
some time ago, and published in The
Tribune on May 10, 1910, that estimate
for Utah being 342,7l9,
Nothing is gained but disgrace by
this invasion of the secrecy imposed by
the Government on the census figures
until the census office at Washington
is ready TO give them out. The clande-
slime and discreditable efforts 10 get
these figures unlawfully, and the yield
ing by a trusted employee to the
to go down into the depths
of official infamy, gains nothing. 1t
does not even settle the figures of the
population. 1t merely approximates
them, and though its approximation
may be closer than others heretofore
made, it is not entitled to any more
