PoLYGAMY is PASSING.
Episcopal Bishop Of Utah Says II
Will End in Thirty Years.

bEE IHb'rI-'1TS Observation-Disclosures
New York Press: Polygarny will be
abandoned by the Mormon church In
thirty years, in the opinion Of Bishop
franklin Spencer spalding, head of
the Episcopal church in Utah, Bishop
Spalding is visiting friends here,
"Polygamy is going out of fashion,"
he said, In discussing the situation in
Utah. TN theory it is part Of the
Mormon doctrine. But today it is
practiced only by the older men. The
younger men do not believe in lit as a
practical thing, and do not practice it.
Within thirty years, depending large
" on the death rate, I believe it will
disappear altogether
Bishop Spalding lis an authority on
the Mormon church, and has written
extensively or the subject. Many who
went to hear him preach expected he
would discuss the Latter Day Saints
In his sermons, but In this they were
disappointed.
In an interview, however, Bishop
Spalding spoke freely on the religious
situation In Utah.
The Mormon church he said, sis
really not so much al church as agreat
business enterprise. 1T enters into
| friendly relations with Corners to Utah.
The bishop pf ward, and the elder,
are always men OF wealth, and they
use the church machinery To further
Their business. and Incidentally and

FARMERS

I The Northwest Farmstead believes
that there is room for reform in many
of the farmers exchanges. The
Farmstead comments as follows:
Some farmers exchanges are lin
wrong" They are not working on the
principle of cooperation at all. EV-
cry exchange that has for it's object
the making Of money to pay large
dividends is founded falsely; and ev-
cry one that enters the market as an
independent buyer is prostituting the
name and fame Of cooperation and
facing certain ultimate failure. Moth
ing is cooperation that comes short
of the principle tersely stated: each
for all Of US and for each Of us.
Where the dividend idea predomi-
mates certain men will surely be gov
erned by selfish interests and conse-
quently others will suffer. Similarly,
when an exchange acts as an indie
pendent buyer it cannot be of serious
service to the community in which it
operates because it will not, cannot
have enough control of the situation
to do more than ordinary buyers
share of business.
To be really effective a farmers
exchange must have the unfiinching
support Of it's members. A big mem
bership is not essential to success, but
loyalty is. Better ten men who will
stick together than eleven who won't.
They can succeed if the business is
managed reasonably well. When they
have proved their success they can
let other ben join. Members who sell
to independent buyers are robbers,
not only of their n~eighbors, but of
themselves. They are not content
with throwing away their own
chances to get good prices through
the exchange having command of the
market, but they must needs force their
neighbors to suffer for their folly.
This is worse than the dog in the
manger idea. The dog merely pre-
vented the COW from eating the hay
he could not eat; whereas the ex-
change member, so called, won't al
because he doesn't want, or, at least,
doesn't get, a fair price himself.
Members who don't sell all their
goods through their exchange not
only make the work of the exchange
officers harder than necessary, but
they blindly steal from themselves
and from their neighbors without en-
riching themselves, for what? To en-
rich the Independent buyers who
shrewdly pull the wool over their
eyes. II they want to sell %independ-
emily they should withdraw from the
exchange for their own self-respect
and for the good of the exchange; for
while they continue as members who
don't live up to members obligations
they are really traitors to the ex-
change, to their fellow-members, and
worst of all, to themselves.

AN ILLUMINATING LAW,

There are soma newspapers that
very vigorously object to the federal
law affording the readers Of newspa-
pers official information as to who
own, or hold mortgages on, the news
papers that come into their families
and teach them many things, some
wholesome and some unwholesome.
h supreme court has held that the
law is not an invasion of the liberty
of the press. but on the contrary it is
an official label, setting forth to the
public in plain terms, the real char
acter of the publication that is either
serving the people or promoting some
selfish interest.
Large interests nave been known to
buy newspapers and publish them to
carry out certain designs that could not
be done without an organ. These news
papers have pretended to be one thing
when they were really another thing.
They have pretended to be giving
wholesome service when really what
they have been doing has been I'M
wholesome and sometimes venaI and
corrupt, and now such newspapers
may be easily known by the ownership
or the character of the interests that
are behind them.
The conditions of public affairs,
tboth in the states and the nation. re-
CURED that a law of this kind be
enacted In order that the readers of
the various papers might not be de-

rule, between 8 and 8 o'clock at night,

PUBLIC OPINION
TO AID CURRENCY
REFORM BILL

Special from New York to Minnea-
polls Tribune by Holland:
If reports received in this city from
Washington are justified President
Wilson is confident that overwhelming
public opinion will compel action by
congress in support of the administra-
TONS so-called currency bill. which
could be more accurately described as
a bill for the modification Of our pres
ent banking system.
Undoubtedly the president has heard
from many parts of the country. He
was informed even before his inaug-
uration that the long-continued public
discussion and the earnest and entire
ly nonpartisan agitation which had
amendment of our banking and cur
renCy avs in view had served TO
awaken the people to the vital i'm
p~ortance of the matter.
AS far as public opinion is con-
cerned there appears to be in this city
nothing but approval of the general
proposition that u banking laws
should be amended, in part at least,
at this session of conSress. There are,
it. is true, differences of view respect
ing the best method of accomplishing
this result. But there is no important
or influential opinion which does not
heartily support the president IN his
determination that congress be per-
suaded to adopt a reformed currency
bill during the present session.
There seems to be some misappre-
hension in other parts of the country
respecting the attitude of what is call
ed "Wal street" toward the PROPOSE
ton that the banking n currency
system be reformed. The proposition
did not originate in Wall street, nor
have the. Wall street bankers as a
class taken more than secondary part
in the agitation in favor of this re-
form.
Some of the men Of finance of this
city who testified before the Pujo COM
mittee did state that under the pres
ent banking and currency law it is
inevitable that there be great concen-
tration of cash and banking resources
in New York. The laws respecting
the reserves held by national banks
automatically and inevitably led to
concentration of cash and resources at
New York. Therefore these men of
finance testified that the best way to
put an end to undue or unreasonable
concentration of cash and resources
| at New York would be by a change in
the national banking and currency
| laws.
No Suggestions Made.
There Were, however, no Suggestions
even intimated by which there could
be any fair inference respecting the
view of the bankers of New York upon
the question of reforming the banking
and currency system, nor could there
have been any which would represent
the entire financial community, since
bankers have not agreed upon the best
methods to adopt.
Some of the leading men of finance
have been persuaded that the absolute
control of banking and currency should
remain permanently in the hands Of
the government, behind which, of
course, are the people. Others. have
held that 1t would be inexpedient and
might some time be found dangerous
if the controlling authority were com

Take Plenty OF Time 10 Eat.

There is a saying that rapid eating
is slow suicide If you have formed
the habit of eating too rapidly you are
most likely suffering from indigestion
or constipation, which will result
eventually in serious illness unless cor
rected. Digestion begins in the mouth.
Food should be thoroughly m~asticated
and insalivated. Then when you have
a fullness of the stomach or feel dull
and stupid after eating, take one of
Chamberlain's Tablets. Many severe
cases of stomach trouble and consti-
patton have been cured by the use OF
these tablets. They are easy to take
and most agreeable In effect. Sold by
all dealers.-Advt.
