REPLIES TO
ATTACKS ON
B. H. ROBERTS
President Nye Talks
of Mormonism.
SAYS POLYGAMY IS DEAD
DECLARES THE CHURCH IS OUT
OF POLITICS.
Representative of the Latter Bay
Saints Claims the TJtah Congress
man Was Elected by Votes
of Gentiles.
President E. 71. Nye of the California
Mission of the Latter-Day Saints
preached to a very large assemblage In
Pythian Castle last right. It had been
announced that he would reply to the at
tacks being made on the church because
at the election to Congress from Utah of
B. H. Roberts, a Mormon and the hus
band of a plurality of wives, and this fact
undoubtedly was in a large measure re
ptile for the big attendance.
The speaker repudiated the allegation
that the Mormon church is in politics or
that it was in any way responsible for the
election of Roberts. He also denied that
polygamy was being or had been prac
ticed in Utah since the passage of the
Edmunds-Tucker act or that there was
any desire whatever among the members
of the church for a resumption of the
practice. He did not deny that there were
members of the church who had more
than one wife, but claimed that in every
such instance the plural marriages had
heen contracted pre% - ious to the act re
ferred to. and argued that it would be a
crime for the husbands of these women
to refuse to provide for them. Roberts
was one of them, ar.d he was doing just
what any man deserving to be called such
would do. That portion of President
Nye'a address referring to Roberts was
in substance as follows:
"In view of the fact that so many hard
things have recently been published about
the Saints, and tne further fact that the
newspapers have absolutely refused to
pub!:sh anything In our favor, I propose
to tell you some facts in relation to the
matter. The election of B. H. Roberts as
Congressman from Utah has stirred the
nation to its depths. There have been
:. misters al lover the land
and the "ministers have given expr
lr views, lavishly and recklessly.
•., too, have held mass meetings
;rpose of denouncing Roberts
and the church. Not that I depreciate the
-. th<?re are but few sections of the
country where women are appreciated as
they are In Utah. We have given them
the franchise and a woman is a member
of our State Senate; so we are certainly
at the forefront on this question.
"Some twenty-odd State Legislatures
have felt called upon to appeal to Con-
Roberts to take
it. Just remember that these grand
old solons, these wise old men, have done

had entered into an agreement with the
managers without consultation
with the leaders of the church. As they
both held high positions in the religious

church— positions which required their

political deal, and it was decided to dis

A MURDEROUS BEGGAR
FLOURISHES A KNIFE
Thomas Murphy Arrested for Begging
and Assault With a Deadly
Weapon.
THE vile abuse heaped upon re
spectable citizens by beggars on
their refusal to give them
money has been the subject of
repeated complaints to the police,
and Police Judges have in several
cases severely punished that class
of offenders.
Yesterday morning about 9 o'clock
O. Eritt, a young man living at the
Cosmopolitan Hotel, was walking
along Market street, and at Grant
avenue was approached by a man
who asked him in a surly tone for
a dime. Britt remarked that from
the strong Emell of his breath he
was not in need of a dime and con
tinued his walk. The man uttered
an oath and, drawing a knife out
of his pocket, opened the blade
which is about three inches long,
and followed Britt, threatening to
slash him.
Britt saw Policeman Orr on the
other side of the street and at once
told him what had occurred. Orr
GILLESPIE AND
KINNE ON THE
FIGHTING LINE
Peace Hath Fled the
Populist Camp.
VOLLIES FOR DR. GRISWOLD
A SHOT OR TWO FOR MR. MON
TEITH IN PASSING.
George H. Clough, the Municipal
Convention Secretary, Suffers
From Some Warm Long
Range Firing.
Gentle peace hath fled the local Popu
listic camp. The war broke out during
the last political campaign and has raged
with fervor ever since. The factions are
Dr. Griswold, George H. Clough and their
follow members of an investigating com
mittee on one side, and the Purity of
Elections Committee of the party, promi
nent in which are George D. Gillespie and
A. B. Kinne, on the other. A few days
ago Dr. Griswold published the report of
his committee, in which he arraigned the
Purity Committee for much political im
purity. This has brought Messrs. Gil
lespie and Kinne again up to the fighting
line.
"It is quite refreshing," said Mr. Gil
lespie, "to hear Dr. Griswold talk about
corruption since he v. as openly convicted
of stuffing the ballot box at the election j
of officers in the People's Party County
Committee in 1892. and narrowly escaped
being thrown out of the window. He
trained with the middle-of-the-road wing
of the party in 1&0S till they Ignored him
in making up their slate for delegates to
the State convention. He then flopped
over to the fusion side and was elected a
delegate on their ticket, and by them
made chairman of the delegation. He be
trayed this trust the first opportunity by
voting against fusion in the convention,
in what was considered a test vote. Since
then we have never trusted him, so he
is now attempting to rule or ruin the
party in this city, and is ably assisted by
George W. Monteith. who betrayed his
party in 1596 by defeating our candidate
for Congress in the First District. Mon
teith wanted to be nominated for Con
gress in 1898. but was rejected because of
his treachery in 1596. and was compelled
to resign from the State Central Commit
tee, State Executive Committee and Fu
sion Committee. Hence, sore-head No. 2.
Georee H. Clough was never heard of un
til Mr. Kinne and myself made him sec
retary of the County Committee and sec
retary of the municipal convention.
"When the Purity of Elections Committee
was appointed he thought he should be
made its secretary, but the committee
considered P. J. Pye much more compe
tent for the place and elected him to do
the work. This made Clousrh mad and he
has since been trying to get even on the
Purity of .elections Committee, notwith
standing the fact that the committee al
lowed him $S6 for his services as secretary
of the municipal convention, which was
the only extravagant expenditure that we
made during the campaign.
"In regard to the charge of paying our
selves salaries: In previous campaigns
the secretary of the Purity of Elections
Committee received $25 per week. Last
year we only paid MR. The purity com
mittee was investigated by the executive
committee and exonerated of every charge
to the satisfaction of all parties, with the
exception of a few persons of the Gris
wold stripe."
A B. Kinne also rakes the Griswold
party fore and aft with several hot vol
lies. Relative to Dr. Griswold's printing
patronage charges he says as proprietor
of the party paper he. of course, got much
of the printing, which amount' 1 to 1580.
Dr. Griswold used a large portion of the
space paid for out of the party funds.
George D. Griswold received $150 for his
entire summer's labor. Then committee
men, who gave their entire time and ser
vices to the campaign, were paid ?3 per
day. Mr. Kinne spe-akß as follows:
"The suggestion that any member of
the Purity of ElectlonsCommittee received
money or solicited money other than the
legitimate contributions which are ac
counted for, is an infamous attempt to
blacken the character of honest nten with
out incurring the responsibility therefor.
The statement that Mayor Phelan and
myself had any understanding before elec
tion with reference to my position in the
Health Office is on a par with the rest
of their statements, and also absolutely
without foundation. The subject was
1 never mentioned between us.'

placed the man under arrest and
sent him to the City Prison, where
charges of begging and assault with
a deadly weapon were booked
against him. The murderous mendi
cant gave the name of Thomas Mur
phy and his occupation a molder.
The knife was booked as evidence
against him. When searched a razor
was found concealed under his col
lar, and in his pockets were 60 cents
and five meal tickets.
Murphy denied that "he asked Britt
for money or drew a knife upon
him. He said he pulled out his knife
to cut his finger nails and was doing
so when the policeman arrested him.
He said he came here from Sacra
mento Saturday morning and in
tended to apply at the Union Iron
Works for a job. He could not give
the name or number of the hotel
where he said he slept Saturday
night. His appearance is not pre
possessing, and the police believe
that he is a professional beggar.
THE ASSESSOR
WOULD BE THE
CITY'S MAYOR
But Mr. Dodge Has
His Troubles.
AMBITION AND PATRONAGE
A HUNGRY BRIGADE SHARP
ENS LONG KNIVES.
The Doctor Makes the First Move in
the Local Campaign, but the
Examiner's Patronage
Makes Trouble.
The local Democratic barometer
is C:<playing to all competent poli
tical forecasters signs of the com
ing: storm which will begin gath
ering strength in a very perceptible
way within twenty-four hours after the
adjournment of the Legislature. Ine
"pollies" are anticipating an exceptionally
hot local campaign this year, owing to
the new charter, which will go into effect
on January 1 under the administration of
a new set of officials, to be elected on
November 7.
"With the new order of things tho
Mayor's office will at once assume trans
cendant importance to every practical
politician interested in municipal patron
age, and this office will be the political
storm center from the start.
It is only among the local Democracy
that prospective candidates for Mayor can
yet to be seen to loom. Phelan will be a
candidate, as everybody knows, and a
great portion of the Democracy will be
out to defeat his nomination. Hundreds
of the boys vaguely turn to Colonel J. F.
Smith as a possible Moses, but nobody
knows whether or not he will be back in
time or whether he would accept a noml
j nation if he could get it.
Acording to general local Democratic
information there la only one candidate
who is thus early laying underground
wires to capture the nomination, and that
man is Assessor Dodge, who happens to
be the subject of more political gossip and
adverse criticism Just now than any other
officer of the municipality. Mr. Dodge is
laying for the big nomination. Charles
Wesley Reed is his biggest Warwick, and
he has come assistant Warwicks in the
persons of Dr. Kagan, Gavin McNab, Ed
ward Godchaux and others who are cred
ited among the practical Democratic poli
ticians with directing the distribution of
i the main portion of his patronage,
! amounting to forty-two deputies and
about 100 extra men. As Mr. Dodge was
the only Democrat elected to a dispensa
tion of any good patronage the entire
j local army of place hunters have turned
their hungry eyes on the Assessor's office
and Mr. Dodge has been having a most
exciting experience.
It was a great anct wise Democratic
leader who once said that if a man gave
one man a place he made one ingrate and
nine enemies, and the talk about Mr.
Dodge recalls the maxim.
Assessor Dodge is finding his road to
fame beset with thorns. The thorns are
all over the tenderloin. and all over South
of-Market. The disposition of the As
sessor's patronage is discussed far more in
certain wide circles than the policy of ex-
I pansion. One thorn that Mr. Dodge has
i been pricked with is Major Harney, Har
bor Commissioner, and chairman of one
faction of the local Democracy. Mr.
Harney and his friends are whetting long
! knives for Dodge, because he refused to
: honor some patronage drafts drawn by
I the Examiner.
Late in the recent campaign the Ex
i amincr secured a conference of party
i leaders with a view to getting the beaten
I Raihevites to stand in and support tne
local ticket. M. F. Tarpey on behalf of
I the Examiner promised one-third of the
local patronage to the Rainey wing as tne
price. Chairman Harney, Secretary Mc-
Govern and some others of the 450 agreed
I to the proposition, but a meeting of the
whole committee on the proposition broke
| up in a great row and only eighty-one
i stood by the local Democratic ticket
j nominated by the Committee of One
Hundred.
When the election was over Mr. Dodge
j was •.•ailed upon by the Examiner to rec
! ognize the bargain and did so. The Ex
! aminer allowed Harney srx deputies and
' fifteen extras, and Dodge, it is said, told
I Harney to send in his list and it would
! be all right. Harney's list included Secre
-1 tary John F. McGovern, who had long
done valiant work for the Rainey organi
zation; S. T. Kohlman and George A.
Love, two other local war horses. The
other three were John G. Fitzgerald, late
of the Sheriff's office; John Bennett, from
the Recorder's office, and Tom Clark,
formerly of the Street Department. The
last three were appointed and tho first
three were not. Harney and his friends
charge that the three appointed got there
only through other influences.
Recently Harney went out to the Asses
sor's office to see about the three that
were turned down, but got no satisfaction.
The upshot mi an exchange of hot lan
guage and as Harney left he is reported
to have said to Dodge:
"You have gone back on your word. All
agreements between us are off and just
remember that I am still in politics."
Thus Harney, McGovern and their friends
■ have no further use for Dodge or for Me
' Nab, Reed, et al., to whose influence the
turning down is partly charged.
"Harry" Zemansky was slated for an
important deputyship and was downed, it
is said, because he was a friend of Max
Popper. The only failure that Charles
Wesley Reed has scored on Assessor's
patronage is said to be in the case of
"I arry" Conlon. the robust young hero of
! many a Buckley primary in the Twenty
eighth Reed recommended Larry, and
when he asked about it later Mr. Dodge
is reported to have said: "Why. Mr.
] Reed, I am surprised at -your making
such a recommendation. Mr. McNab tells
me that he is nothing but a hoodlum and
a Buckley lamb." Larry is desperate and
swears that he is going to ''punch McNab
in the snoot." . . . d
The disgruntled legion charge that
Dodge through Reed. Ragan and other
Warwi'cks, has appointed all sorts of
Raineyites who knifed him and the rest of
the Democratic ticket, and the roar that
is going up is an interesting accompani
ment to the progress of Mr. Dodge toward
the Mayor's chair.
SNOWBOUND TRAIN
WITHOUT PROVISIONS
Starvation Confronts Passengers on
an Overland Stalled at Iron
Mountain.
CHEYENNE, Wye., March s.— An ur
gent message for relief was received to
day from the Cheyenne and Northern
train in the snow at Iron Mountain. The
provisions are reduced to a few beans
and a little coffee, with forty-two per
sons to be fed. They have been snowed
in for six days. The conditions are des
perate as the adjacent ranches where
food has heretofore been obtained are
about out of provisions.
Hon John F. McDermott, John Foxton
and W. K. Foxton. who walked in from
the imprisoned train, report the cuts
drifted level full of hard snow between
here and Iron Mountain, and that the
only way of getting through with a train
will be by shoveling. A relief train with
a supply of provisions and 100 shovelers
was sent out this morning, but it can
not reach the imprisoned train before to
morrow morning.
The blockade on the Tjnion Pacific was
raised to-day and trains are now running.
It was with great difficulty that the ro
taries and wedge plows managed to push
through as the cuts were all piled full
of hard packed snow. The trains that
were Imprisoned at Laramie came
through all the way from seven to twelve
hours late. The weather to-night ia
warm and fair.
