MORMON CHURCH MAKES DENIAL
Bishop Nibley Says Not One Cent Il In
vested In Nevada Lands

Salt Lake Telegram: "The Mormon
church has not invested one cent in Ne
vada. and there is absolutely no founda-
ton of truth in statements to the con-
trary." said Bishop q. w. Nibley. when
a clipping from Nevada paper which
stated that the Mormon church had
bought a great tract of agricultural and
ranch land in that State aud that the
bulk of the Nevada business will be di-
verted from the Coast to Salt Lake, was
referred to him.
"The church certainly gets credit for
being the worst gobbler." continued
Mr.. Nibley. land doesn { deserve it. The
church has never bought any land in
Nevada aud is attempting no coloniza-
tion there. Some years ago the Eccles
interests acquired land in that State
Jesse Knight of Provo owns land there.
Kimbal g. Richards and Taylor brothers
real estate dealers of this city. are inter-
ested in Nevada lands.
"There is every reason why Salt Lake
should receive good share of the Me-
vada business. Let MS hope that the
trade from Nevada increases right along.
This city rs more accessible from more
Nevada points than San Francisco.
"rhe Metropolis. Nevada, enterprise
mentioned in that article is not one in
which the Mormon church is interested.
Everybody knows that Metropolis is
any body's place."

WOMAN WINS WEALTH
IN ALASKA MINES

''the gamest woman in Alaska" is en-

Miss Walton declares conditions in
Alaska are now much better for the in.
dependent miner owing to the new laws
which have at last reached the statute
books. Her hatred of the Guggenheims
has not softened, however.
"They still have terrible power. +"
she declared to-day. "They control
courts and resort to any means, fair or
foul, to crush out the little fellow. l
have fought them for years and I've
whipped them every time. and when l
get back am going after them in an
other way. So far they have put every

but I'm going TO establish one at Nome
that will show them q thing or two"
Miss Walton owns the famous Gold
Bug claim on Wonder creek. She has
amassed fortune amounting to well
over 100000. Her plucky fights
against the intrusion of squatters em.
ployed by the big interests have endear.
ed her to every independent miner in
Alaska. She has fought the Guggen-
helms in the courts aud has often de.
Tended her claims with a rifle.

Seen and Heard at
the Four Corners
BY BRIGHT EYES

The lot of traffic policeman at the
-Four Corners" is anything but r.
pleasant one. Yesterday a Ne6fn
youth was arrested for violating
traffic laws, and when his attd
ney stated in court today that
was home for the Easter holiday
sentence was suspended.

Another spring butterfly made ttA l.

Firemens building saw ii and tried
to persuade the welcome visitor to
become a permanent resident on his
beat.
That a mob can be congregated as
quickly on the -Four Corners" as in
New York's Ghetto was proven to-
day. A woman crossing the street
dropped a. package and two gallant
young men tried to recover it for her
at the same moment. Their heads
collided and the argument which en-
sued attracted a crowd sufficiently
utes.

Don't do that is a mighty poor
rule of righteousness. Cold storage
may make saints, but it never made
a soldier of the common good" The
man VINO merely omits to do that
which is recognized as f1agrantly evil
is so much dead timber. The best
that can be said for him is that he is
neither plague nor pestilence.
You have done the world no service
If you merely refrain from violation
of the rights of others. You have
done evil if your personality is such
that it freezes the milk of human
kindness in the veins of others You
may not feel the need of sympathy
and cooperation, but your neighbors
do, and your iceberg disposition is a
constant encouragement to those who
go about doing good. Few of us care
to give our sympathies where they
are not desired, and your reception of
our kindly offices is likely in the end
to convince us that no one wants
them. Thus, you actually turn rob-
Der. depriving those who appreciate
good fellowship of it's benefits.
He that repulses a kind word or a
generous deed is thief who steals
from others that which he does not
desire for himself. There is no greater
villainy.
Don't be an iceberg.

well at last, commissioners were
appointed to meet at Washington for
the purpose of drafting a treaty |
think that the secretary of state. Mr..
Chase. and the British minister, Sir
Edward Thornton, were very doubt
full about the ability of the commits
sioners to come to such agreement
as to make a treaty possible, but
they did. The treaty was drafted
and was ratified. and 1t provided for
the submission of the Alabama claim
to an arbitration tribunal which was
to meet at Geneva.
Charles Francis Adams was APP
pointed by President Grant as the
American representative of that
tribunal. That was a singularly for
tunate appointment. Mr.. Adams had
been our minister to Great Britain
from 1861 to 1869. He had shown him
self to be a master of the most diff
ficult features of diplomacy. If he
had not been such a master. he could
not have decided upon the heroic ac-
ton which saved the treaty and the
Geneva tribunal from failure.
81 ought to explain to you what the
difficulty was, CnafleS ouIHneT anu
other Americans insisted that the
Geneva tribunal should consider, in
case the tribunal found Great Britain
responsible for the escape of the Ala
bama, not only the damages directly
caused by the Alabama, but indirect
damages such as loss of American
commerce and the increased cost of
maintaining the federal troops and
navies and various other incidental
and what are called consequential
damages. One estimate was that
these damages represented total
of, | think, two billion dollars.
Great Britain would never have
consented to proposition of this
kind When it was known that the
American agents purposed making a
demand of that sort the British
agent was instructed to ask the tri-
bunal as soon as it met to adjourn
for eight months.
1T looked as though the whole
thing was to be a failure and 1t would
have been but for MIR. Adams. l
think there is general impression
that Mr.. Adams saved the day for
US.

In 1898 Miss White was married to-
Clark Fisher. chief engineer of the
United States navy. Five years later,
at the death of her husband, Mrs.
Fisher faced the problem of the dis
position of his share in the large
manufacturing firm of Fisher & Nor
ris. After due consideration, she de-
cided to assume her husbands posi-
ton as head of the business. Evil

1t was this exposition by Mr.. Wells
which served, as much as any one

his reasons for holding that view.

of fifteen million dollars by that tri-

tribunal which sat at Geneva in the
spring of 1872 was an epoch-makins
event 1t established the great princi-
Die of arbitration. For the United

tribunal held that Great Britain was
responsible for permitting the con
federate cruiser Alabama to escape
from the British shipyard The com

union flag was practically destroyed
by the Alabama
For five or six years this was the
subject of very serious correspondence
between the United states and Great
Britain. There was danger that war
might come as a result of it. How
bitterly our own people felt Is evil

to me confdentially that the British
government was told that the United
States would be willing TO accept the

Until late at night the aspects are
favorable, the readers of the stars
announce. This day will be a fortu-
nate one for the signing of impor-
tant contracts and for starting new
enterprises.
The moon trine to Saturn is said
to be conducive to conservative, pru-
dent and sober judgment in all bust
ness affairs; it helps to make NOR
tails provident and far-seeing. The
aspect favors the attainment of po-
sitions of trust and responsibility by
slow progress which assures lasting
prosperity.
According to astrology. this should
be lucky day for building, for real
estate transactions and for all sorts
of repair work. The sign is fortu-
nate for all dealings with plumbers,

and landlords
