INTELLECTUAL HOSPITALITY.
Theodore Schroeder.

L. 40
To have some intelligent apprecia-
ton of how much of the knowledge
is yet unknown, conduces to that
humility which is the beginning Of
wisdom. To know something of the
past struggles for human progress
cOnduces to an appreciation of how
little is probably true of what wes
think we know. Thus to see our
attachments in their true relations
to past beliefs and their probable re-
lation to future knowledge conduces
to true measure Of our great ig-
norance. To have this is to be with
out censure, because without a stu
p1d pride. To love truth more than
our vain predispositions; to love
harmlessness of life more than NOR
al sentimentalism; to be free from
pharlseeism, because knowing the
diversity and uncertainty Of stand
ards; to be unafraid of new evil
dence and unoppressive toward new
allegations of truth; to be controlled
by selfshness of so high an order.
that your greatest happiness comes
from studying all problems from the
impersonal viewpoint, and making
all judgments by impersonal stand
ards; to have the desire to be right
always overpowering the desire that
others esteem us to be so; never to
impose ones opinion by invasive
force; nevere to be impatient, except,
perhaps with dogmatism and intoler-
ance-this is the essence of intel
lectual hospitality. In addition to
this, if you show that rare disposition
to make substantial sacrifice for
defending the right to be heard, of
those whose opinions you disapprove
you would have a virtue so rare as
to be almost heroic

Their squaWking is the best eyi-
Idence that they have reached the
very reasonable conclusion that
Georgia can never possess exactly
the right kind of cline for their.
operations until they have succeeded
in putting Mr.. Watson down and
out. And they are using every en-
deavor to accomplish this end.
Shall they succeed? Never. The
people are with Mr. Watson more
now than ever before and they are
going to be with him at the finish.
He has waged some great fights for
the cause of right. Just keep it up,
Mr.. Watson. Continue to drag the
grafters and other evil-doers out of
their ubiquitous holes so that "Old
Man Peepul' might apply the right
kind of chastisement.
Why is it that the government
never thought of that literature as
obscene" until, in the ordinary
pursuit of his business affairs, Mr..
Watson mailed some of it? Why
should the government, under the
circumstances, bring the charge
against him? The answer comes in
the bowls Of these disgruntled news
papers. His political enemies are
responsible for the governments at
titude, in this respect.

gram. of conversion that. Walter
Scott had first preached in Ohio
faith, repentance, baptism by inn
mersiOn, remission of sins, the gift
of the Holy Spirit.
Next to Smith, .Rigdon was the
most influential person in the Nor
mon movement during the follow
ing decade. They built the first
Mormon temple at Kirkland, Ohio.
and here Smith was proclaimed
President and Rigdon his First
Counsellor. The popularity of Rig
cause to the rapid growth of the
church there. A Bank, of Zion was
established, which was finally con-
victed of issuing fraudulent notes
which could not be redeemed in cur
rency. Many people lost all they
had and Smith and Rigdon were
tarred and 'feathered at Hiram by an
indignant mob, and Kirkland ceased
to be the Mormon headquarters
They migrated to Missouri, where
they grew in spite of their many
conflicts with the Gentiles, as they
called all outside the Mormon fold.
They were driven out of Missouri
by the State Militia, and went to a
thinly settled county of Illinois,
where their numerical Strength, for
they were now fully fifteen thous-
and strong, secured most favorable
concessions from the Governor of the
State. They built their city of Maui
VOC and erected a splendid temple
there and Smith became the civil ru-
Ter, as well as the religious leader of
n
and arrogant that in 1914 he offered
himself as a candidate for the Presi-
dency of the United States.
At Nauv0o he is said to have first
publicly announced his principle of
celestial marriage" which author
lied the practice of polygamy. Some
of the independent Mormons started
a paper, protesting against this ini-
guilty, and Smith destroyed their
printing plant and forced them to
flee for their lives. They went to
Carthage, the county seat, and had
Smith, his brother Hyrum, and four
teen others arrested and confined in
the Jail. The feeling against them
was SO strong that a mob attacked
the Jail and the two Smiths were
killed. The MormOnS made much of
the martyrdom of Smith and the
persecution of the "Saints," but theso
so-called prosecutions were punish
ments for outrages against funda-
mental social laws and for violations
of personal and property rights in
their avowed intentions of spelling
the Gentiles. Ida w. Harrison, in

WHY ISN'T 'OBSCENE ITTERA-
TURE" OBSCENE AT ALL
TIMES

p y EVER did the red savage
Ira show more barbaric exulta-
III ton over a victim at the
L stake than the exultation ex-
hibited by certain political newspa-
pers in Georgia over the charge that
has been brought against Hon.
Thomas E. Watson by the governs
ment for the alleged misuse of the
mails.
And there is a reason.
Their savage-like bowls are sim
ply exhibitions of hatred that they
harbor against him for the part he
has enacted in exposing their nefa-
rious schemes and dragging them,
helpless, before the public gaze.
They carry too many marks on their
Wayward hides as evidence of his
editorial lashings not to use every
advantage to "get even" when they
think they have an opportunity to
do so.
This is the reason for their pres
ent attitude.
Dare they fight him in the open?
Not or your life. They have long
ago learned that he is a good propo-
sition to leave alone, when it comes
to engaging him in fair combat.
Like the methods they are now US
ing, they prefer to hushwhack for
they know their hides would soon
get punctured in open warfare
