THE TALK OF THE DAY.

Minnesota employs its convicts so profit
ably at making twine that in that State
binder twine is three cents cheaper than
outside, and the trust has given up try
ing to meet the rate The state makes a.
profit of $1S9 50 on each man employed in
the twine works. and with the opening
of a proposed farm implement plant the
net profit to the state will run up to
sS60,HO a year. This is Il good showing,
says '"The Survey" and particularly graft
flying to the thrifty Minnesota farmers,
who devised Il scheme which lowered their
taxes. lowered the cost of the binding
twine which they use in great quantities,
saved them from becoming victims of a
fixed trust price. introduced the humane
practice of giving employment to prison
ers and paid d profit over the entire cost
of their keep.

TWO FORMS OF THE VICE.

The Tribune has been printing the

recently gone into polygamy. The
church organ thinks that is very, very
wrong, and to prove its wrongfulness,
it proudly points TO its own course.

1T PLACES BLAME WRONG

We notice in the Pleasant Grove
News of last Friday, a statement of the
Jesse Knight interurban condition that
is entirely exculpatory of the county
commissioners Of this county, and
wholly blameworthy toward the City
Council of this city, for the conclusion
of Mr.. Knight not to go on with his
project. OF course, that is wholly un-
fair.
The city treated Mr.. Knight with
candor and fairness. The Council COM
mittee met with him, discussed his
proposition. was ready to give him d
franchise free from all revenue re-
quirements for ten years. 1t helped
him to find the best place to get into
the city and place his lines within the
municipal boundaries. Even up to Mon
day of this week, not having had from
him any notice that he had abandoned
his purpose, ii set time TO meet with
him and perfect the necessary details.
The Council is ready at any time to
do its full share, and more, without
wholly sacrificing the public interests.
On the other hand the board of coun-
ty commissioners contemptuously threw
out Mr.. Knights application for q
franchise from Salt Lake county. it
gave him no notice Of hearing, afforded
him no consideration at all, but treated
him as though he were a man unknown,
and of no standing or Importance what.

to pass. But if this was so, why could

EDGING FOR "ooNsEoRATIoN 4,

in his tabernacle sermon on Sunday
Apostle Heber j. Grant is reported as
saying; 81 never knew a man who fell
away from the gospel Of God who fol-
lowed His commandments; for instance,
The paying of tithing regularly, or in
the keeping of the word of wisdom.''
Some time ago Apostle Orson i. Whit.
ney, in the same building, told the
saints in effect that the law of tithipc
was merely preliminary step TO some.
thing further which would have the
effect of testing their faith to the ut
most. He said that in due time the
Mormon people would be required to live
up to the full law of "consecration :"
Later on President Nephi L. Morris of
the Salt Lake stake of Zion pursued
similar strain. And now it is Apostle
Grants turn to aid in the work of
preparation for the introduction of that
holy law of 'consecration. 1t is not
supposed that tho matter will be
brought to an issue at this coming con-
ference, but this recent activity along
that line would suggest that at the
April gathering the saints may be ad-
monished to prepare themselves and to
"set their houses in order' for an
other try at the ''United Order Of
Enoch," which is the designation ap.
pointed by the late President Brigham
Young to the practical observance of
the law Of conservation.
1t will be interesting, when "the due
time of the Lord' shall arrive, ac-
cordlng to the Mormon leaders, to OBJ
serve the results of an attempt to foist
the "consecration robbery upon the
Mormon people. Already they are com
planning at the outrageous financial ex-
actions made upon them. Many have
stopped paying tithing altogether, as
the remarks of Apostle Grant on last
Sunday would indicate. Without blush
the tithe-grabbers have unqualifiedly
refused TO tell contributors what is
done with the money, and that course
is having it's natural effect of creating
discomfort, and even contempt of the
Chords anointed. BY all means,
hurry on with tho "consecration /"
idea.

has officially confessed that there have

the church will admit There are hun.
dreds of them, in fact. Polygamous
marriages can not be contracted under
any other authority than that of the
Mormon church, because no other au.

cially connected with this particular
condition, has ever stood for the belief
or the practice. 1T matters not through
whom or how that authority is ex-
pressed in the performance of polyg-
amous marriage ceremonies, that au~
thority was derived from the Mormon
church. No instance Of new polygamy
within the Mormon church can be
pointed to by the News. or by any of
the men for whom it speaks, wherein
the ceremony was performed by a nom
Mormon. 1t has always been performed
by r Mormon-one who has derived
his priesthood and his authority from
the Mormon church. 1t has been a
Mormon priest who performed the
polygamous ceremony; it has been Il
Mormon man who married polygamous-

married polygamously; it has been the
Mormon church that has declined TO

practice; because The Tribune finds
