Show I' Senator Hoar was very unreasonable with Apostle Lyman in asking him to try to be consistent. t ft -i ) 1 Plural marriago ceremonies arc cer- i tainly entitled to be classed under the i' 1 head of quiet weddings. The statement that President Smith i Trill soon be on his way home leaves his destination somewhat In doubt. I t i But It nil may have the good effect I of making young men ashamed who I have been afraid to take ono wife. ! Apostlo Lyman thinks lift should not be blamed for disobeying laws when They ore not, just the kind, of laws ho Hkes. I . ; Japan is perfectly satisfied ihat it has been in the right in its treatment i M TJussln. n.s It has won several vlc- I4 torles by it, v ; t Probably Apostle Lyman, now sees That he would be feeling much better he had been compelled to remain Kt homo slcK. Some of his brethren, however, must be of the opinion that Senator Smoot r' Is not entirely unobjectionable, when i lie haa but one wife. II ; I j The idea as expressed at Washington I appeara to be that the members of the 1 I church have a perfect right to reject a revelation but that they must not do 'C - ' As Mayor Morris reads the law, it is , illegal to pay any city employee, when it appears to the Mayor to be to tho i advantage of the Democracy not to , pay him. Assuming, for the sake oi tnc compliment, com-pliment, that Judgo King and Moj. Toung really do not want Democratic ! homlnations. it must be admitted that ! they show fine judgment. I Perhap3 in holding that plural wed-1 wed-1 dings have occurred nowhere on earth, church officials merely show that they are willing to take the word of a bride and groom that they arc in a heavenly state.. . r I' Adellna Patti, it is announced, has canceled her engagements in this country, coun-try, and will sail Immediately for 13u-f 13u-f rope. For her own good repute, it were j bc-tier had she not come over, on- this post-mortem farewell tour. The Amer-s Amer-s lean public la very gullible, but notso dreadfully gullible as some people evidently evi-dently think I A marked discrepancy is noteworthy In the. testimony of President Smith ' yesterday before the Senate committee and tho decision of the Utah Supreme ?; Court in regard to the matter of seal-i seal-i Irg The court, after a thorough and careful consideration of the whole oues-' oues-' ion, came unanimously to the conclu-r conclu-r Slon that the sealing has precisely the Effect which President Smith denied ji hat it has. And without any ques-; ques-; ti'on in the world, the court is right. K It seems that public opinion is too H Strong for Mayor Morris, and perhaps H' ljarty pressure helps in the wok. But Hi Ire no longer adheres to his veto of the H; pay to laboring men who have earned H (heir wages from the city. He consents H' that these may be paid, so far as tho H! positions aro fixed by ordinance, and Hi provided they arc not heads of depart- H' wients.

The Japanese are said to have landed to the west of the Yalu river. If this In true, and they have Innded In force, they flank the Russian position at Chang-Sieng and WIJu, and those places -jvlll bo made untenable. Indeed, a forward for-ward move from this force, in conjunction conjunc-tion with a like move from the Japanese force north of Seoul, ought to result-ln the capture of the Russian forces on the Yalu river. The news from that part of the field of the war will be watched with great Interest for the next few days. H "Electric fans of the warm-weather H order have other uses than the familiar' H one of stirring up the air in times of H summer heat and thus affording relief H to perspiring humanity," says Cassler's Magazine. "As a means of preventing H tho frosting of display windows of ohop Hl In wlnter-tlmo there Is nothing- simpler H or more effective, than the air blast of B such a fan directed against the glass. Tho philosophy of the thing Is plain. The evaporative effect of the air curront simply prevents condensation of moisture mois-ture upon the -window, and affords relief re-lief from an annoyance which generally is sought, btit only Imperfectly attained, through various other awkward means." It is a plain hint to sh6v-vlndow dress-en dress-en and doubtless it will be taken advantage ad-vantage of in this city as elsewhere. |
