The Rev. Frederick Vining Fisher,
pastor of the First Methodist Episco-
pal Church of Ogden, Utah, one OF the
leading Gentle churches of the state,
has made a statement in defense OF
the Mormons, among whom he lives
and labors, which will surprise great
MANY persons whose knowledge OF
Mormons is vague. Mr.. Fisher, who
sends his statement to the Outlook
Magazine, says that at the recent Slst
annual conference of the Mormon
Church, President Smith declared thai
besides the marriages celebrated IN
the temples with religious ceremonies
there had been 100 civil marriages
among their people. The Salt Lake
Tribune added a little salt to the
statement by throwing it into this
form:
Eleven hundred marriages were
contracted last year not in accordance
with the law of God. AS announced
twice and again, plural marriages have
ceased in this church"
The Los Angeles Examiner saw
chance to make a sensation and l
turned the statement into
"screamer,' of which the headline wal

WARM DEFENSE OF MORMONISM
BY A METHODIST MINISTER

dent Smith was held up to universal
obloquy on the ground that he had de.
MED that polygamy was practiced and
in the same breath had admiWed that
it was in use. Just at the time anti
Mormon riots were breaking out in
England, while in this country the
undertaking magazines" says Mr..
Fisher, were printing disreLutably
false stories about the MormOns by
the ready-writers whose knowledge of
the subject was either gained at long
range or after such investigation as
could be made by the holder of a two
Cay excursion ticket on the railroad
Mr.. Fisher says:
ITO understand Mormonism one
must remember clearly three things:
First, that it is a deeply religious body
an evangelical Protestant church, if
the test of the Federal Council Of
Churches be a true test, Born in an
age of religious bigotry and crude the
ology and eXiled across a wilderness,
it has kept these relics longer than
some of the rest Of us, but, despite
these facts, which linger longer in its
books and out-ol-way towns than in
real life, it is today a church of half
million praying, Bible-reading, law

A DREAM.

A poor workingman told his wife, on
awakening one morning, a curious
dream which he had during the night.
He dreamed that he saw coming to-
ward him, in order, four rats. The
first one was very fat, and was follow
ed by two lean rats, and rear rat was
