Several thousand Of the saints
went forth to preach the gospel Of
M0rmonism and to electioneer for
their leader. But his ambition came
to tragic end on June IA when
he met martyrs death In the Jail
at Carthage where he and his broth
er, Hyrum, were shot down by
mob Of militia, who were there to
protect them.
AT the same time that Joseph
Smith was casting an eye toward
the White House another Smith
was moldlng a new political party
which would In the future nominate
him for the Presidency. He was
Gerritt Smith, New Yorker des-
tined for future fame as a philan-
thropist, but in those days an ardent
abolitionist. He organized the Lib
erty party at Arcade. N. T., In 1910,
and In 184S and again in 1852 was
its candidate for President. He
had three other claims to fame-as
a hacker of John Brown, whom
he supplied with money for Browns
ill-fated attempt to free the slaves,
as the man who, with Horace Gree
ley, at the close of the Civil war,
signed the bail bond of Jefferson
Davis, and as the man whose bene-
factions, during his lifetime, totaled
close to SS.0O0.0O0.
The next Smith who aspired to be
a President was one Green Clay
Smith, native of Kentucky who
served In the Mexican war, was
elected to the Kentucky legislature
and at the outbreak of the Civil
war became a colonel In the Union
army In which he rose to the rank
of brigadier general. Elected to
congress while still In the field, he
resigned from the army, and while
serving In congress was appointed
second territorial governor of Mon
tana by President Johnson. After
three years in that Office he resigned
to enter the Baptist ministry, and
in 1876 he was the first candidate
of the Prohibition party for Presi-
dent. Thus half a century before
Alfred E. Smith was a "wet" candl-
date for that position, Green Clay
Smith was a dry" candidate, and

ROOSEVELT IN '32 AND NOW

"a distinguished southern Democrat, prominent in the
councils of his party since 1886 and an enthusiastic sup
porter of the Roosevelt candidacy, was invited recently
to become a member Of the American Alliance, an anti
communist organization. His reply to this invitation, not
written for publication, is fairly indicative of the state of
mind to which conservative members of the party and
honest believers in the Roosevelt platform now find them

Gen. Limon is very desirous of
starting a similar breeding es-

given there. I did not hear

told me she hadn't been out so

leave the orchestra playing,
which it did until nearly four
o'clock.

work and trouble that Tom

these large dances for the
crowds that expect and are
eager for entertainment on
these horse show nights. Get

dancers during the evening are
things that Tom does for the

that he often "goes in the hole"
too, as the cost of these bril-

large, but in his big-hearted, un.
selfish way, he likes to see all
the young ones have a good
time.
