RESOLUTIONS
FIND FAVOR
RESOLUTIONS AGAINST THE
MORMON PRACTICE OF
POLYGAMY

The following resolutions, suggest
ed by the National Reform assocla-
ton, were adopted by the Thirteenth
convocation of the District of North
Dakota (Episcopal, at Fargo. Geo.
L. Childs was secretary of the convo-
cation.
To the President of the United States:
Whereas, the report of the United
States Senate committee on privileges
and elections shows that the Mormon
church dominates the state of Utah,
and exercises an improper influence
upon civil affairs of surrounding
states;
And. Whereas: The same report
shows that the Mormon church is
seeking to supplant the government
of the United States;
Now, Therefore; We, as citizens OF
the United States, do respectfully
urge upon the President that he do
not appoint to any federal position
any man, Mormon or non-Mormon,
who gives his political allegiance to
the Mormon church.
To the Senate and House of Repre-
sentatives, in Congress assembled:
Whereas, The Mormon church con.
tinues to teach, and its prophet and
priests continue to practice, poly
gomy, in defiance of law and in un-
grateful violation Of their pledge
made to this country;
Now, Therefore; We, citizens of
the United States, do respectfully
urge upon the congress the speedy
adoption of the pending resolution
introduced in the house by Mr.. Gill
lett Of Massachusetts, and in the SEN
ate by Mr.. Weeks Of Massachusetts,
to amend the federal constitution as
follows:
"Article XVIII.
"Section /. Polygamy, and polyga-
nous cohabitation, shall not exist
within the United States or in any
place subject to their jurisdiction.
"Section 2. Congress shall have
power to enforce this by appropriate
legislation."

BRITAIN WANTS
|. TO BUY COTTON,
DECLARESENVOY
Open Cotton Exchange and We
Will Begin to Purchase in
Quantities, Says Paish
BUSINESS CONDITIONS
RAPIDLY FIGHTING
Exports Gradually Closing up
Balance of Trade Against
u. s.

| WASHINGTON. Oct. 31.-'Open the
cotton exchanges" Sir George Paish
Great Britain's financial envoy to the
United States declared today In an
exclusive statement to the United
Press. land our spinners in England
will begin buying cotton in such
quantities that 1t win take but little
time to settle this exchange prob
lem. The amount Of cotton cur mills
will buy, even at the reduced prices
which may prevail, will go far to
wards reducing the debt which this
country owes to England at the pres.
ent time.
"The point Is that our spinners, and
even those In this country, cannot
change their methods In q day, or al
the stroke Of pen. Perhaps they dc
not In some instances because they
do not think 1t Is necessary. They
are not accustomed to buying cotton
to spin, and taking all the risk oi
that cotton declining in value. They
want to sell cotton short on the ex
change at the same time they buy, Sc
that they will not run any risk.
Business conditions In this coun
try are rapidly righting themselves
and will soon be normal, especially II
posed OF by the opening of the ex
changes. With the exports Of grain
and other foodstuffs, this country IL
gradually closing up the balance oil
trade which now lies against 1t.
But, meanwhile. something ought
to be done about the big debt which
this country owes England. Il would
not have It all shipped In gold. We
do not want SO much shipped that
you would not be happy. As to the
methods Of remedying the situation,
We have no suggestions. They will
come from your government"
But no one would wish enough
gold shipped to settle all of the debt"
interjected Basil B. Blackett, who,
with Sir George, came over from Eng.
land to discuss with the treasury de-
partEent, measures to relieve the for
eign exchange situation.
There II another reason for not
desiring all Of the gold shipped which
an actual adjustment of the exchange
problem might show to be neces-
sary," continued Sir George. Your
exports to England are going ahead.
They are probably exceeding imports,
despite the decrease in exports from
this country to Canada. Even at the
low price being paid for the cotton,
and even with the small quantity OF
lcotton going abroad, there IL no doubt
that the balance against the United
States is being reduced. But not.
withstanding this, we think that
there should be shipments of gold to
relieve to some extent the situation"
as there any federal action which
you would suggest?" he was asked.
I'VE have been invited to hear your
proposals. not to tell you what you
should do" he replied smiling.
