connect his new thought with some
thing which would assume before
him a real Presence, what was more
natural than that he should instinc-
lively turn toward the sun as to the
author of life and light? So the
first religion began by men going
upon the heights and watching the
glorious phenomenon of the dawn,
and as its outriders began to paint
the sky with gold ana the lark,
mounted on high. filling the air with
song, those humbled soules prostrat-
ed themselves before the coming
Deity and prayed for more mercies
and more blessings.
So these priests and laymen who
climbed Shasta at night that they
might celebrate a sacrament of their
faith at dawn, were, in their en-
lightenment doing intelligently, only
what primitive mar did when he be-
gan to struggle up from his darkness
into the light; and the beauty of the
ceremony is what was at the begin
ming and will always be.

TIFUL PICTURE OF THE SPLEEN
DOR AND BEAUTY OF LIFE
AND THE UNIVERSE.

A few nights ago some Catholic
priests and laymen climbed to the
crest of Mount Shasta and celebrated
high mass on the royalmountain's top
at surise next morning. 1t seems to
us hat a most happy thought must
have prompted it. To the devoted
Catholic the celebration of high mass,
if performed in all humility and all
Punishment of worldly, selfish in
f%unences brings the real Presence of
the Infinite Spirit to it. What spot
could be more impressive upon which
to bring that Presence than the crest
of Shasta? So stately is it, so sub
lime the vision which the dawn
spreads out before the eyes, The
though must have come instinctively
to those worshippers:
Build thee more stately mansions,
o my SOUL"
In another sense it was a return to

slowly advanced out of b~arbarism
and watched the days succeeding the
the nights, saw the cold grow
warm under the sunbeams; saw in
the autumn that the sun seemed
wandering futher and further away;
the coming of the reign of winter
with its icy blasts aud winding sheet
back of the sun; the dispersion OF
the snow the warming earth had put
out some flowers; saw the migratory
birds returning, building their nests
and filling the air with Their songs;
saw first the buds; then saw the
forests putting on anew their robes oil

and fruits, and finally the full frui

dim way to comprehend that some

DATES AND INCIDENTS OF THE
JOURNEYS FROM THE BANKS
OF THE MISSOURI TO THE
NEW ZION.

In an account of Mr.. Taft's meet
ing In the Mormon Tabernacle during
an Old Folks Week celebration the
greater part of the audience of H.
900 persons stood up, 1t is said, when
Bishop Nibley asked those who
crossed the prarieries in the migra-
ton of 1851 to rise. We know
that the span of life is long in the
Mormon land of steady habits. but
the inference is too great a strain
upon eredulity, says the New York
Sun. There could not have been
present in the Tabernacle thousands
of people who took part in the migra-
ton of 1867, or. for that matter,
in all the migrations of the period.
In the first place the advance guards
of the Church Of Latter Day Saints.
the pioneers who Went to spy out the
land of promise, did not leave the
banks of the Missouri hlitil the
spring Of 1S47. Their number was
143 men, three women and two
children. With Brigham Young at
their head they set out on April IA
with seventy-three wagons drawn by
horses and oxen, leaving behind them
the main body of the faithful in a
r.tfl.a.uf - gaxan bunHrod loo hutg
and "dugouts' in the midst of which
rose the rough but spacious Taber-
nacle. The spot became the original
site of Omaha. In the middle Of
January Brigham Young had issued
a divine revelation" entitled THE
Word and viii of the Lord concern
ing the camp of Israel in their
journing to the West" in which the
pioneers were ~enjoined TO prepare
houses and fields for raising grain
for those who are to remain behind
this season." On their way TO the
valley where Salt Lake City now
stands the pious adventures met
with no serious mishaps. being we'll
armed and organized into fighting
companies. but they did encounter a
character in Jim Bridger. a squaw
mar and trapper. who learning that
their destination was the Salt Lake
Basin, predicted failure for the enter
prise. Jim promised to give them
$1,000 for the first ear of corn they
raised. He secuted divine interven-
tion. declaring that he had seen the
heavens dropping rain "only very
occasionally" But the head of the
church had made a study OF irriga-
tion. The rim of the Salt Lake
Basin was reached on July %. Camp
was made on the bank of a stream
southwes of and near the spot where
the Tabernacle was erected in the
fullness of time. Six days later a
city to be two miles square was plot
ted. Most Of the pioneers returned
to Missouri in the fall to arrange for
the great migration, arriving at win
ter quarters In the last of October.

In Mr.. Taft's audience there could
have been only very few of the
migrants of 1S47. A youth of twen-
ty In that year would be eighty-four
today and the pioneers were men
picked for their strength and endur-
ance.
The great migration occurred in
the spring of 1S4S. An inventory OF
the first five companies comprised
1881 men, women and children, 623
wagons, 131 horses, A mules, 2,012
oxen, 9S3 cows, 334 loose cattle, 654
sheep, 237 pigs, 904 chickens, 1874
dogs. 81 cats, 10 geese, 3 goats, IL
doves, 5 ducks and l squirrel. The
number Of persons who reached
Great Salt Lake Valley in September
and October of 1913 vas about A.
900. Most of the adults of that mi
grafton must now be dead, and most
of the survivors must have been
children when the molly assortment
of people, animals and birds came in
sight of the New Zion.
Still later there was the Hand
cart Emigration, so called, a move
ment of wretchedly poor people who
had been brought over from Europe.
This occurred in 1856. Any suryiv-
ors of that terrible experience must
be blessed with iron frames and
abnormal vitality. At a meeting of
the church in Salt Lake City in the
winter Of 1S55-56 it was agreed to
adopt "a system of emigration across
the plains by handcarts as being
cheaper and consequently better un-
der the circumstances for bringing
the faithful poor from Europe" Frail

The report the Tariff Commission
ought to make, but won't, is something
like this:
"We find that all duties on imports
should be abolished at once. In the
first place, the government has nc
moral right to levy them for any pur
pose. Imported goods sold by for
eigners, who justly owned them, are
the rightful property of the persons
who have paid for them. The laying
of a duty, robs the owners of i'm
ported property. 1t is just as morally
wrong for the government to steal as
it is for individuals.
I'm the second place. the govern
nent not only robs importers in levy
ing import duties, but it helps Ameri-
can. manufacturers of articles similar
to those imported, to FOB the rest of
the people.
1--WE. find the claim is made that the
tariff increases wages. We find this
claim usually put forward by manu-
fasturers who pay. no more wages
than they can help, and do nothing
in the interest of their employees that
stringent factory laws do not compel
them to do. The insincerity of the
claim IS evident. ,
sThe claim is furthermore made
that American manufacturers can not
afford to pay the wages they now do
and compete with foreign manufac-
turers. Since it has been shown time
and again that American products are
sold in foreign countries in free con-
petition with foreign. products the
most fitting comment to make on the
claim is short and supplementary
word, which has made certain iv-
ing ex-presidetn famous.
sit is unnecessary to present Stats
tics or other figures. No amount of
figuring can prove wrong to be right
or beneficial. It is well understood
and universally conceded that honesty
is the best policy. This applies to ma
lions, as well as individuals. The ma
ton can not be honest and levy a
tariff at one and the same time. The
necessity of speedily abolishing that
method Of raising revenue is obvious.
Respectfully,
"THE TARIFF COMMISSION.''

Still Hounding
Little Woman

Los Angeles, July 2O.-Mrs. Emma
McManigal underwent the ordeal Of
another day in court when she ap-
peared to answer to a citation by
Judge Walter on charge of con-
tempt of court.
The little woman has aged years
since she was subjected to the tor
ture of Burns Detectives. She bore
herself well and looked her persecus
tors squarely in the eye. The dis
trict attorney fled an affidavit con-
corning her refusal to answer the
questions Of the grand jury. She had
used her constitutional right in re-
fusing to answer but the Burns de-
tectives are using every effort to get
the woman put in prison cell where
they can get at her alone. They hope
to break her down in spirit as they
have broken her in health by their
prosecutions.
The defense pleaded for time and
were given four days to make renly to
the aff1davits fled by the pros. luton.
There is much indignatio' yer the
way the woman is beng rounded by
detectives. These thugs AID gun men

she appeared today. McLaren, the

Land Values And
The Steel Trust

Herbert Knox Smith, United States
Commissioner of Corporations, has
rendered valuable public service In
his report on the United States Steel
Corporation. He shows that at the
time of the formation Of the trust
there was back Of its $1,40O,00o. 900 of
capitalization tangible assets of but
$685., o0O, 900. OF this 682,O00,O00 only
$25O,000,00O represented manufacture
ing properties. The remainder con-
sisted largely of minin5 lands and
transportation facilities. So without
counting any of the land values which
must have been included in manufac-
turing properties, the trust still owned
land value enough to cover half of the
tangible value of its assets. II the
trusts valuation be accepted instead
of Mr.. Smiths the proportion OF land
value is still greater. for it valued ore
lands at s7OO,0O0,OO0, which Mr.. Smith
counts as worth but 500. 100000. The
trusts valuation of this ore land ac-
counts for most Of the capitalization
that outsiders would consider water"
Mr.. Smith further reports that since
1901 the tangible Valuss have increas-
ed to 81, 49,, 00e, 900. This seems 20 in
dicate in the absence Of other infor-
nation that the trusts valuation bas-
ed on earning capacity was not far
from wrong under existing conditions
The concluding part Of Mr. Smiths
report is as follows:
Thus the industry itself rests phys
ically on the ore, the corporation bas-
ed one-half its capitalization on the
ore, its profits on ore, as win later be
shown are large, and IN the ore IS its

control. The ore therefore is of pri-.
mary significance. and in that re-
source chiefly are involved the indSs-
