Submits Facts to Prove it.
Washington Correspondence to IIrralh.
Washington, D. (A, Jan. 25.—Congressman French was subpeenied
i a8 t week to appear before the Senate Committee on Privileges and
1 1
Elections and testify in regard to the political conditions in Idaho and
j| orrnoa church. In regard to the question of polygamy he said:
, 1 1 - -
"There is no doubt but what there are. less polygamy eases by far in
Idaho than there were fourteen years ago when Idaho was admitted
into the Union." He said that he did not know of, and had never
heard of a polygamous marriage in Idaho since 1800, and did not
believe that there had been one. He said that the yopnger element
of the Mormon Church is unquestionably against polygamy and that
the sentiment of the entire state is a unit upon that question. He was
asked whether.or not 4he Mormon Church attempted to influence the
elections in Idaho and said that he did not believe that it did. lie
'produced tbc voie cast in Mormon and Gentile counties since 1898 and
showed from this vote that whenever there had been a Republican gain
. ,
ltl t|, c Mormon counties there had been a similar gam in the Gentile
con nt leg. He showed that the Republican gain in the Mormoneoun
(ics between 1898 and 1900 was 111 per cent while in the Gentile
counties it was 103 wer cent; he showed that the Republican gain in
the Mormon counties in 1902 over 1900 was 20.3 per cent, while the
Republican gain in the Gentile counties in the same year was 20.68
(per cent; he showed that the Republican gain in the Mormon counties
in 1904 was 42.25 ]>er cent and in the Gentile counties it was 41.09 per
In fact", said Mr. French, "the gain is uniform tbc state over,
Und I see no reason for saying that the Mormon church lias in any
way controlled the votes of the Mormon people. It will lie noticed
that the increase in the Republican vote is practically the same in tlio
Mormon and Gentile counties;
cnee in the increase in vote, with the exception of the vote on I'res
idential Electors, and in that instance the difference is in favor of the
Gentile counties, which seems tc prove the opposite of what Senator
. . . . . , 1 . 1 . ,1 ,,i,u, i
Dubois has stated. It also appears that between the years 1900 and

1902 there was a greater gain in the Republican vote in the Gentile

counties than in the Mormon counties; while between the years 1902

He said that

crease of vote between these two sections of the State.
'«finis leading the people. I'resifient. Roosevelt and the National ad-J
ministration generally are thoroughly supported by the people of Idaho,
and Mr. Dubois knew that he did not dare to oppose Mr. Roosevelt iu
the campaign of 1904; and hence he raised the Mormon question with
with the hope that he might secure the votes upon that issue. His mi
sons, in my estimation, arc political pure and simple.

PROGRESS OF DIVISION

Chas. L. Heitman, who is leading mass meeting have decided to
I the opposition, had given up the
I fight and returned home appears
to be far from true, a fact which no
one realizes more than the divi
sionists. Heitman is being activ

ative Spaulding will also likely
against division. It will thus
seen that county division is
against no small opposition and
the bill will pass the Senate with
out much trouble, but will have a
rocky road in the House.
A feature that is attracting much
unfavorable comment in political
circles is the activity of the Sho
shone members in favor of division.
Shoshone is jealous of the growing
jHilitical power of Kootenai and
wants the county dismembered so
that her prestige in the North will
be imperial.
The latest move is the introduct
ion of the bill favored byCa-ur d'A
lene, obliterating Kootenai and
creating two new counties.
It's a lovely scrap.

says in "The Exposition":
"At last the goal of the ambition
of years has been reached—mar
velous, wonderful, grand and in
spiring Royal Gorge is on either
hand. The only disappointing
thing is you only have one pair of
eyes, while the train darts in and
out of the tremendous chasm,
any who have never seen it are
wondering how it looks just go and
see. Thousands have tried to des
eribc it, yet every attempt falls
short of giving the subject justice."
