THE PRINCIPLE INVOLVED

The American people struggled for
n quarter of n century to bring capi
tai into subjection to the rights of
the public. They have defeated the
efforts of capital to dictate. They
now face an effort at dictation in
the name of labor. which is as con
temtuous of the rights of the public
as capital was formerly. The spir-
it of the oft-quoted "public be damn
ed" epibram is Just apparent in the
present conduct of labor as it was
formerly i'll that of capital. The
public is Just as determined not to
be damned by labor MS il was not to
be damned by capital. When labor
comes with n threat to tie up the
railroads, TO cxtinguish the steel
furnaces and to cut off the fuel sup
ply with winter at hand unless its
demands are conceded, the people
recognize il ms an attempt to hold up
the United States. and they will
fight
In taking this attitude the people
do not oppose labor unions as such.
they oppose only leadership with rev
olutionary aims and contempt of
contracts. They are no more desir
Gus of breaking up organizations OF
labor than they were of breaking up
corporations when capital became ar
rogant.
The protest is against the effort
of any class, any minority. to ride
roughshod over the whole nation in
assertion of its pretended rights and
in contempt of the rights of the
majority Whi,'in those limiia
tions there is abundant room for the
activity of labor unions.
A non.union laborer and Ameri-
can citizen has just as much right
TO n job as union man who is or
* not n citizen. and visa versa.
The "closed shop" theory is con
trary to every principle of our form
of government and is just as con .
trary 10 our American guarantee of
individual rights and liberty, Us

pie in America that man had To be.

TRAGEDY OF rs
YEARS BACK is
TOLD OF AGAIN
iThree-Quarters of a Century Ago
Today Mormon Smiths We're
/. Slain by Carthage MObs.
Especial to The Argus


Carthage, H.. June 27.-Seven-
lty-five years ago today the town
Of Carthage was the scene OF a
tragedy which stirred the entire
country to a high pitch of excite
ment, and incidentally had a de-
termining effect upon the future of
the Mormon church. 1t was on this
date, in 1874, that Joseph Smith,
Jr.. the founder Of Mormonism,
and his brother HyruYn were slain
by a mob after they had been
brought TO Carthage and lodged il
Jail on a charge of treason.
The parents of Joseph Smith
were poor farmers in the interior
of New York state When he was
only Is years old he was convert
ed at a religious revival meeting
Soon after he began TO report that
he had seen visions. At this time
he could barely read and write.
Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1893-1920, 1919-06-27

council OF Nauvoo declared the pa
per to be a nuisance. and immedi-
ately Smiths followers lacked
the building and destroyed the
presses and paper.
The publishers of the paper es-
capped to Carthage, and from here
a warrant was issueo for the ar
rest of Smith and II of his follow
ers. The city marshal Of Nauvoo
marched the constable who served
this warrant out of town, the mi
litia was then called out, the Nor
mons gave up their arms and
Smith and his brother Hyrum were
brought to Carthage on a charge
of treason. The governor visited
them in Jail and promised to pro-
tect them. A guard was placed
over the building. but on the night
of June 27, 1914, a band Of more
than 100 men entered the jail and
shot the prophet Joseph and his
brother to death.
The Mormon exodus that follow
ed from Illinois to Salt Lake City
was conducted by Brigham Young,
who succeeded after some dispute
to the authority of Joseph Smith.

Suddenly he announced, after a
lapse of a few years OF earnest re-
ligious reflection, thai he had re-
ceived q definite message from the
Divine power. The substance OF
this message was that. the covenant
Of God with ancient Israel was
was to be the instrument
Remnant of Israel
The American Indians were a
remnant of Israel, their sacred
records had been taken away by
God and deposited for preservation
These records were to be delivered
to him In four years to a day he
reported that these records had
been given to him by an angel.
They consisted of engraved plates
Of a material that looked like gold.
each plate about as thick as tin
and measuring about seven by
eight inches. The plates we're COW
cred by fine small! characters.
Smith soon moved away from
Pennsylvania, where, as he said,
he might obtain the seclusion in
which to make the translation.
The result was the Book of
Mormon" about as large as the
Old Testament. 1t was said to be
a history by a prophet named
Mormon. of ancient America, from
its settlement by a colony from
the Tower of Babel down to the
18th century A. D. After the pub

converts to form at Fayette, n. Y,

IN Ohio, Indiana. New York, Penn
sylvania and Illinois. Soon Smith
was reported to be performing
miracles. Kirkland, OHIO, in the
then far west, was declared to be
the promised land of the Mormons.
and later Missouri was SO desig-
mated In Ohio he was tarred and
feathered. The Mormons in Mis-
souri, came into conflict with the
people there, and after much trou-
BILE Smith and his companions
made their escape to Illinois,
where he founded the city of Maui
VOC. They received a charter from
the governor in 1910, and at the
city election in February, 1871.
Smith was elected mayor. The
Nauvoo legion, of about i 500 men,
was formed. with Smith Lieutenant
general. Missionaries were sent
abroad, who obtained in England
many converts.
At Height of Fame.
In 1912 Smith was at the height
of his fame and favor. On July
IL, 1S43, he received, he said. an
additional revelation, authorizing
him to take spiritual wives" This
was the basis for the establish
ment of polygamy and the rock on
which his church eventually was
to split. Immediately he lost some
of his followers, notably two whose
wives he had solicited to enter into
the married state with, MIN. These
two established a newspaper in
Nauvoo the followin,; year. The
first number contained the affida-

regardless of what is wanted. Consider
eyebrow arching, for instance. A local
beauty salon announces TO the public
that 1t does eyebrow arching, and ex-
plains that this operation "gives the
eyes a deep, soulful expression with
everlasting charm" Eyebrow arching
advice for woman electors is more or
less superfuous. It is to the men, and
more especially to the men who aspire
TO public Office, that this beauty hint is
directed.
Throughout the country women are
getting the ballot on equal terms with
men. Women cannot vote in Indiana,
but they are going to have that privi-
lege before long. So many women
have been enfranchised that they now
hold the balance of power in this ma
ton. So the woman vote will be more
and more real political problem TO
the candidate.
Some electors care little for the per-
sonal appearance of candidates, but
most of them prefer a man of char
acter, one who at least is presentable.
Candidates in the future will have to
bear this in mind. 1t viii be veil, in

SAID ICE CREAM BURNED
Think of 1t, French Riddles Had to BE
Coaxed to Partake of Strange
Delicacyl

Striking proof. of the well-known
fact that extreme heat and extreme
cold have the same physical properties
was recently furnished by "Jugger"
Crane, the scientist-philosopher of
Company B, --th engineers, when he
fed some American ice cream to a
group of French children, says the
Spiker.
The inhabitants of the French farm
houses near the camp had never seen
any ice cream until "Jugger" took
them over a mess kit full of the great
American delicacy.
The children gathered around ex-
peetantly. The first one took a spoon
full and at once began to weep and de-
clare that the strange food was hot.
The others who had watched rather
horror stricken the fate of the first be-
came convinced that it was some sort
of white fire and would have nothing
to do with the cream.
The mother had TO eat virtually all
the cream in order to induce them to
believe 1t was cold rather than hot
and that when not taken too fast, was
good to eat. Eventually, the children
ate the last of the dish.
But they partook of it gingerly, evil
IDENTIFY greatly mystified that anything
which first seemed hot, then cold
could be good to eat.

A ROYAL WELCOME.

Talk about crowds, the largest that
was ever assembled in the city of
Wauwatosa was the one at the High
school last Wednesday evening, gath
cred to welcome our soldier boys
home. 1t seems chat all of the people
of the city were there. If it was ever
proved that Wauwatosa needs a large
auditorium it was proven last night
1t was impossible to get all the people
who turned out into the hall. The
building was thrown open and all the
rooms had people in them. 1t is hoped
before many years we will have a
building large enough to accommodate
these kind of gatherings
The following program was carried
out:
''The Star-Spangled Banner" led by
by the crowd, after which the Hon.
Chas. B. Perry delivered the address
of welcome.
Rev. A. R. THAN spoke, his subject
being, "61 to 1917"
The Crescendo Mandolin Club of
Wauwatosa furnished a delightful
number.
The following returned boys spoke:
Private VIM. Brady Sergt. James
Hale Toombs, Lieut.. Stanley Perry,
Sergt. Ogden Schoonmaker and Lieut.
Clarence Rasmussen.
Miss Salome Wilson entertained
with number of readings, which
were of the highest order.
Leigh Blumer favored the audience
with several songs which was much
enjoyed.
Dancing was enjoyed in the gym
and eats were partaken of by large
number.
This is not the last welcome to be
given. It is expected to have several
more as the boys come home-most
of our boys are still across the seas.
