WHY NOT ASK ACCoUNTING2

In the pursuit of business certain
rules are set down and applied that
have for their object the establishment
and practice of honest methods between
the parties TO the business, and espe-
cially on the part of agents trusted
with moneys and properties in which
any number of associated partners are
concerned.
Now, 1T goes without saying, that in
their ordinary business affairs Mormon
men and women are ordinarily business.
like. They demand reports and account
lngs and financial showings with re-
spect to income and outlay that will
give them knowledge Of the exact con-
dition Of their businesses, and as to
how they are individually faring in
their enterprises. Under these condi-
tions it is strange thing that year
after year these same people will con-
tribute into the keeping of their eccle-
siastical leaders millions of dollars with.
out even so much as intimating a de-
sire to know how the accounts stand.
1t is apologetically set forth by the
church organs and speakers that the
people have so much confidence in their
leaders that they feel perfectly safe in
entrusting to them vast sums of money,
and that on this account they have abb
solutely no fear that the trust is being
abused. But that is n nonsensical view
to take; because these same people have
implicitly trusted many of their &C.
clesiastical directors III other business

the showIugs have been made they have
found that they have been swindled by

EXAMPLES THE OTHER WAY.

It was Just the other day that the
Deseret News reiterated one of those
little bits of deception that are calcu,
lated to impress the minds of the saints
with the divinity Of the calling Of their
alleged prophets, and TO frighten them
into meek submission and away from
apostacy. IT called attention 10 the
fact that the last of the daughters
OF the late Governor Ford recently died
in poverty at Peoria, Illinois. declaring
that this fate was the direct result of

HOW ABOUT ENOCH?

Perhaps one of the most interesting
incidents that could possibly happen at
the present great gathering of the Nor
mon people in this city would be the
submission TO them Of a proposal to,re,
establish among them what was former
ly known as the 'tUnited Order of
Enoch. -
For the information of visitors we
might say that not long ago Apostle
Orson r. Whitney and Stake President

THE REPUDIATORS.

Time and time again it has been pro.
tested that when tho Mormon churc
made the cumpacts and covenants
which were intended TO secure peace
with the citizenship of this Nation, the
church entered upon its agreements in
all earnestness and sincerity, and that
these qualities now characterize that
organization s treatment OF those
promises
a short time ago, in treating upon
this subject, the Deseret News said
that the Mormon people could not help
being true to their word and sincere
IN the faithful observance of their con
tracts. The Tribune has all along CON
tended that the rank and file of the
Mormon people are ordinarily honest
in fulfillment of the promises made.
To speak of the church being thus sin.
cere and faithful in adherence to its
word of honor necessarily brings in the
body of adherents, because without
the body there is no church However,
1T is an accepted rule of judgment that
the chief exemplars in any organiza-
tion are regarded as the opponents by
whose conduct conclusion must be
gained, and that the extent of appro-
hation and support contributed by the
followers in turn establishes their at
tltude IN such affairs. 1t is well
known, because il has been officially
confessed personally under affirmation
IN public, and by authoritative docu-
mentary utterances of the Mormon of
fetal body, that tho chiefs of the
church and many of the minor &C.
clesiasts have repudiated the contracts
made by and for them. 1t is history
that the members of the church have
voted at each succeeding conference. in
the face of the confessions, to sustain
the lawbreakers and covenant smashers
in their high places. Therefore, the
offending having been admitted pub
licly TO the saints and TO all the re.
mainder of the world. and the ehurcb
members having publicly supported
and sustained the offenders, without
effort TO remedy the evil, it must he
concluded that the whole church has
repudiated its solemn covenants. There
is no other way in which the situa.
tion may be viewed in fairness.
1t can never be truthfully claimed
for the Mormons, nor by them, that
either individually or as a church they
have kept their promises and exhibited
sincerity so long as the evils spoken of
remain undisturbed by the approval of
the body. At each conference the on.
portunlty has been present to express
dlscountenance of the admitted pledge

now; and while they remain silent upon

AUTO REFUSES TO
POSE FOR PICTURE
Burns Up With Indignation-o -or
IgnitiOn-and Owner Is
Out $4,000

Faces calculated to smash cameras
have been known, but III. o. Cummins,
who returned yesterday on the liner
Sierra, possesses the only camera that
ever set fire to an automobile. Cum
minis and his wife, who had been tour
ing this state in the motor car, decided
to see something of the territory of
Hawaii They secured passage on the
Sierra for themselves and their $4,000
machine and had a lovely time riding
about the plantations until the day that
Cummins decided to take picture of
the car with his wife at the wheel
The car was brought to a stop. Mrs.
Cummins took her place at the helm
and her husband set up his camera and
prepared to snap a picture which would
have had for a background one of the
prettiest sugar plantations in the south
seas.
Just as Cummins was about to press
the bulb and make the exposure the
machine burst into flames. Being more
raphy, Cummins never pressed the bulb
but jumped to the rescue. Mrs. Cum
Minis escaped, but within three minutes
only four tireless wheels remained to
remind Cummins of his $4,000 invest
ment.
He thought he had something else and
cabled the company with which he had
his machine insured, telling them all
about the accident. The reply came
promptly and was to the effect that
Cummins' failure to notify the company
of his intention to take the machine
across the seas Cancelled the insurance
