MoRMoNs FIGHT PoLYeAMY
President Smith Even WIlIineto Have
Government Make Laws

Salt Lake, Utah, April 8.-President
Joseph f. Smith in opening the S1st
annual conference of the Mormon
church, Thursday said he was willing
to have the Federal Government en-
force laws against polygamy.
I'VE ought to obey the rule of the
church with regard to marriage" he
declared. "As announced repeatedly
at these conferences plural marriages
have ceased in the church There is
no man authorized to perform plur-
al marriage. We have been doing all
we can to trace the men who are per-
forming such ceremonies. 1t is hard
to locate them but when we do find
them, we will deal with them.
with respect to the idea proposed
by some to induce the Congress of
the United States to amend the Con-
stitution so as to give the Federal
government power to regulate plural
marriages, so far as | am concerned
have no objection to such an amend
ment; neither has any other Latter
Day Saint. Let the state petition the
National Congress to regulate the
whole subject of marriage in the Uni
ted States. 1t would be godsend
to the people everywhere"
President Smith announced that
during the year just closed there had
been one divorce to each 5000 church
membership, as compared to one div
orce to each 100 persons in the Uni
ted States. He denounced the appar-
emily growing tendency among church
members as we'll as in the country at
large to patronize plays of vulgar
and demoralizing character

PRECAUTIONS AT TRIAL
Jury Closely Guarded to Save Them
From Black Hand Threats.

Chicago, April Federal authori-
ties are exercising unusual percaut-
ions at the trial of Gianna Alongi
charged with sending threatening let
tiers through the mails, to guard
against any threats reaching the jury
or any violence upon United States
District Judge lands or others con-
nected with the case. The jury will
be guarded night and day until they
have handed their verdict to Judge
Lands. 1t is usual in the federal
court to permit the jurymen to go to
their homes over night. but the
Alongi jury will be kept together and
closely guarded owing TO the rumors
that the jury in the former trial dis
agreed because one of them received
a Black Hand letter.

The deacon did not rush things. lie

candle and walked over to the sink and
washed and wiped his hands. When
this was done he put couple Of
sticks of wood in the stove and then
went into the sitting room and brought
out book entitled "Every Man His
Own Lawyer" 1t was book he had
had for five years. and the reading Of
it had saved him scores of lawsuits.
Paying not the slightest attention TO
the object on the floor, he elevated his
feet to the hearth of the stove and
began reading.
At the end Of ten minutes there was
a sigh behind him.
At the end Of FIVE more there was a
feeble moan.
No response from the deacon. He
was reading that the penalty for cut

another man was from three to six
months in the county jail.

Then Mrs. Dolby sat up and looked
around her.
No move on the deacon's part. That

NEW YORK CITY BRIDGES.
Four Of the Largest In the World spar
the East River.

Four Of the Largest In the Worid Span
the East River
Familiar as Is the fact to engineers,
few of the citizens of New York re-
alize that four of the largest bridges
In the world connect Manhattan with
Long Island and that they exert a
most important bearing on the present
Afe and future development Of the city,
apart from any consideration Of the
engineering elements involved in their
construction and maintenance. Today,
when the subaqueous tunnel figures so
prominently in schemes Of urban and
suburban rapid transit where rivers or
tidal water are concerned, the efficien-
cy of the bridge and the traffic it can
carry are matters Of peculiar interest.
1t is only fair for the citizens to con-
slider the traffic that is being carried
by the bridges, note it's diversity and
then figure on the economy.
Furthermore, in New York the bridge
department somewhat ANONYMOUSLY Is
engaged in building one Of the largest
and tallest Office buildings in the city
to house many of the city offices as
well as provide terminal for the SUBJ
way trains crossing to Brooklyn. Here
is a very simple example of municipal
finance The terminal is demanded, SO
the ground must be secured. There
fore 1t is possible by an outlay Of $11,-
100000 to build an Office building large
enough to house many of the depart
ments for which Offices are being rent
ed in private buildings at an expense
estimated at over 100000. AS the in
terest on the bonds issued for the erec-
ton Of such a building would amount
only to about $45O,OOO, the saving to
the city both in money and conven-
fence is most apparent, while the cree
ton of fine monumental structure
serves to beautify the official center

Protection From Sawdust,

The man who operates a circular

ance Of picking sawdust out Of his
eyes every time he bends over to look

Hang piece of one-half inch board
from the ceiling over the saw so that
