lights in the report of Doctor Clar-
ence, True Wilson, general secretary,
at the annual meeting Of the board
Of Temperance, prohibition and pub

Doctor Wilson urged the transfer

Of the President. He advocated
strongly the appointment Of prohi.

Absolutely absurd and untrue"
This was the reply today Of Sen
ator Smoot Rep) of Utah to charges
Of Mrs. Lulu Loyeland Shepard be.
fore the National Reform Associa-
ton Inc Pittsburgh that polygamy
was being practiced in Utah under
the guise Of Mornonism.
Smoot is one Of the high officials
Of the Mormon Church.
MRS. Shepard is only serving her
masters said Smoot, ''and there is
no basis whatever for her asser-
tons. 1t is absolutely untrue that
polygamy is sanctioned by the Nor
mon Church"
Mrs. Shepard further said that
the proof of her charges was borne
out by bills introduced in Congress
to abolish polygamy.
Every session for the last TWEEN
ty years bills have been presented
to abolish polygamy," Smoot de.
clared. "But these have not been
directed against Mormons. Mrs.
Shepard's charges are almost too
absurd to dignity with a denial"

While he has not worked out
definite details, Caraway said he
would probably RECOMMEND that
each party in the national field
should be limited to an expenditure
of not more than $750.0OQ. pro.
hibiting contributions from any
source other than the Federal Gov
erment.
Something drastic must be done
to stop enormous and unlimited ex-
penditure Of money in campaigns.
especially during presidential cleo
tions, said Caraway. 1T Is time
that we broke up the system by
which the candidate with the most
money to spend can win q presi-
Dental election.
Payments by States
Already our States pay election
expenses, that is, salaries Of work
ers who count and watch the votes,
and so on. 1t seems to me that 1t
also would be logical and fair to
make the Federal Government pay
the costs Of the campaigns OF the

Hard On New Parties.
''Of course" he explained, "this
would work some hardship on those
desiring to start new party, but,
essentially, we are and should be,
think. a two-party country. I
also would, however, make some
provision for a limited appropria-
ton for any new party which
seemed to be substantially sup
ported. The details Of this could
be worked out later"
Caraway would have the cam
paign funds audited frequently BY
Federal officers. and an exact &C.
counting Of all money expended
kept by the Treasury.
Under our present system the

way declared s'The more rich

BANDIT STICKS UP
AUT0IST FOR HIS Cash
NEAR GARDINER

Especial to the Kennebec JournaD
Gardiner. Maine, July IN. j.
Peters Of Bangor reported to
the Gardiner police Monday morning
that he had been the victim of one
Of the boldest robberies in this
section of the state for some time.
Mr.. Peters, who lives at 143 Park
Vine Avenue in Bangor was going
through to Portland by automobile
ar about $3.50 and when he reached
hon Mine Hill on the Brunswick
Road he overlook what was suppos-
eddy an aged man quite lame, who
seemed to be having considerable
difficulty in making his way along
the road. Mr.. Peters stopped and
asked the man il he wanted a lift,
which was gratefully accepted. When
they reached the section along the
road where the cottages begin. the
man asked his driver to stop. as he
had friends in one of the cottages
along Pleasant pond, and as Mr..
Peters did SO, the man drew a gun
on him and demanded h is money.
He took the sum of S73. in bills from
the victim and keeping the revolver
levelled, backed into the woods.
Chief of Police Dunn, and State
Officer A. G. Robinson went to the
scene and passed good part of the
day in working on the case. but at
a late hour had no results. The des-
cription of the man given was that
he was about 80 years OF age, tall,
wore a dark gray mixed coat, brown
trousers and dark cap. The limp.
and aged expression were of course,
but a trap to gain sympathy.
