The story OF the alliance of the Nor
meyer interests in the beet sugar busi-
ness was told and the deal characterized
as entirely legal by Prophet Joseph +.
Smith, president Of the Mormon church
and president Of the Utah Sugar Com
pany, before the House sugar trust
investigating committee today. He told
how the Mormon affairs are conducted.
how its funds come principally from the
tithes OF its people, how they are syste-
matically accounted for and asserted that
the interests of the Mormon people are
safeguarded at all times.
The committee made no effort to pry
into the affairs oe the church except in
so far as they related to business mat
ters The venerable representative or
the Mormon hierarchy said the deal with
Hayemeyer was not considered important
enough for formal consideration by the
council of the church, but was effected
with the acquiescence Of the church off,
Gals.
Church's Largest Investment.
Mr. Smith testified that it was not the
general practice Of the church to make
business investments, that the sugar
business was its largest investment and
that that was entered upon to help the
Mormon people. He emphatically denied
that the Mormon Church had any stock
in the American Sugar Refining Com
pany.
While half of the Utah-Idaho Sugar
Company stock Is owned by that COM
pany," said he. II have no American
stock. the church has none. and ] know
Of no directors in our company who hold
any such stock He said he had very
little knowledge Of the business details OF
the sugar company.
why haven't you folks bought out
the Havemeyer interests" asked Repre-
sentative Raker of California.
1--WE haven't got the money"
"You knew Havemeyer was very pow
erf,ll man in tie business world. ana you
were glad to get him interested in your
business. weren't YOU?
I'VE were only interested in getting his
money"
Line OF Curious Women.
Mr. Smith was accompanied to the
hearing room by Senator Reed Smoot.
Bishop c. y. Nibley. business manager
Of the Mormon Church: Thomas r.
Cutler, a former bishop of the church.
and Representative Joseph Howell, a
communicate With the party, which
was forced to pass a line of curious
women, was also r. w. Young of Salt
Lake, counsel for the representatives
of the Mormon hierarchy.
This was not the first experience OF
the leader of the Church Of Jesus
Christ and the Latter Day Saints with
a congressional committee. Many
present today when the venerable
Mormon leader appeared recalled his
visit during the investigation into the
right of Senator Smoot to retain his
seat. On that occasion Prophet Smith
declared he would continue to main
tain a polygamous domestic life
Though his mission today was an en-
tirely different one-submission 10 ex-
animation as to business relations of the
Mormon Church with the American Sugar
Refining Company through the Utah
Idaho Sugar Refining Company-it was
expected that the interests of his people
in Mormonism would not escape inquiry.

Training School to Start Shortly.

Rock county is to have the much
talked of training school for teachers,
permission having been granted in a
letter from State Supt. G. P. Cary to
County Supt. O. D. Antisdel. A petit

to the state authorities by the county
board at its recent session. 1t is not
known in what part of the county the
school will be situated. There are al
ready some twepty-four of these schools
in the state and is was decided by the

county it was a necessity in the face of
the dearth of rural teachers.
