The sore itself is simply an outside evidence of tome internal poison, and the only way to care it is to remove the deep underlying cause. Sores and Ulcers originate usually from a retention in the system of bodily waste matters and impurities. These should pass c5 through the natural avenues of waste, but because of a sluggish condition ©f the different members they are retained iu the system to be taken up by the blood. This vital fluid soon becomes unhealthy or diseased, and the skin gives way in some weak place and a Sore or Uloer is formed. The con stant drainage cf impurities through a sore causes it to fester, grow red and inflamed and eat deeper into the surrounding flesh, and often there is severe p«in and some discharge. S. S.

Senator Reed Smoot's long expected address to ihe Senate Tuesday in defense of hit: position as Senator from Utah was the feature of the session. He was sup ported by Senator Dillingham. of Ver mont. In an analytical speech of the evidence which had been submitted In the case. Mr. Hmoot condemned po lygamy In the strongest terms and declared emphatically that he had tskiin no oalh Inconsistent with that he hen taken as Henalor. "The Senate is entitled to know my personal altitude u{»on the subject of polygujnv." said Mr. Smoot, “snd upon the subject of loyalty to this Government Upon those two matters 1 shah express myself briefly, but with • ntlie candor. Nevsr Had But One Wife. "First, I desire to state, as I have repeatedly heretofore stated, to the Senate and to the country, that I am not and never have been a polygamist. I never have had but one wife, and she Is my present wife. There has been a more or less prevalent opinion that the doctrine of polygamy was obligatory upon the members of the Mormon church, whereas, in truth and fact, no such obligatory doctrine' has ever existed. The revelation concern ing polygamy, ns originally made and always Interpreted, Is permissible and not mandatory. As a matter of fact, only a small percentage of the adher ents of that faith have ever been po lygamists. The vast majority of the adult members of the church from its foundation to the present time have been monogamists. The Mormon peo ple, however, regarded tht« doctrine, although permissible in character, as part of their religious faith, and when the law was passed denouncing Its practice the execution of the law was resisted on the ground that It was un constitutional as being an Interfer ence with thetr religious ilberty. Ap peals were token to the highest courts of the land, every phase of the sub ject was tested in the courts, and the law was upheld. Then the church adopted the manifesto against polyg amy, which was ratified by the gen eral conference of the people and (hereupon the practice of polygamy for the future was abandoned. There wear in 1890 about 2.151 male members of the Mormon church who had' polyg.amist families. That these were placed in a position of difficulty was recognized by all who were famil iar with conditions. "The present conditions in reference to polygamous cohabitation have grown out of past conditions and both must be considered together to fully understand the toleration exercised by most of the people of Utah. Mormon and non-mormon alike. Non-Mormon Offioiaia Ruled. “At that time all the machinery of The courts in The territory was in the hand* of the non-Mormon officials, who hud been vigorous in the prosecu tion of polygamous relationships. These recognized Lite vexed nature of the situation, and extended the olive branch as us it were. As c relief in this came an exercise of forbearance on the part of the prosecuring offi cers. The three assistant United States District Attoroys for that period were E. P. Crltchlow. Frank B. Stephens and Mm. M. McCarty. Judge McCarty was inclined to continue pros ecutions in some cases, but the United States District Attorney refused to allow his accounts therefor, and he ceased. "Mr. Crltchlow was the writer of the principal protest in this case, and one of Its signers. All of these and other government prosecuting officers testi fied before the committee to the cessa tion of prosecutions against the exist ing polygamous relations, and of the general sentiment among the non- i Mormon population tlm that was the | since the manifesto. I believe sin- (e'rely. Mr. President, that such cases I have been rare. They hove not re- t ceived the sanction or the encourage- j mem of the church.” f “The Mormon church has stopped i plural marriages. and no- polygamous relation assumed -'uhaequent to 1S90 is with the permission, sanction or approval of the church; that is final and fixed. Every such violation of the law has the express condemnation of the church. "Reference has been made to an alleged treasonable obligation which it Is sought to claim is a part of the Mormon endowment ceremonies. The Senate will understand that these cer emonies are therefore not divulged. They were Instituted in the Mormpn church by Joseph Smith, some time prior to his death, and are yet given ns part of the temple oeremonies; be ing of a religious spiritual character, they, tire for the living ar.d for the dead, a part of the Mormon belief be ing vicarious performance of ordi nance and ceremonies . "There doc- not exist In the en dowment ceremonies of the Mormon church, tho remotest suggestion of hostility or of antagonism to the United States or to any other nation. They are of a purely religious nature, wholly between the person taking them and his God. and as with tho ritual of various fraternal organizations re garded'as sacred and secret. Loyally Answerod Call to Arms. "The State of Utah came Into the Union eleven years ago. "Scarce two years had passed when there appeared on our national hori zon the cloud of war with Spain. Side by side, shoulder to shoulder, with every other State In the Union, Utah furnished their equal quota of Ameri can soldiers and offered more. "There was no question of religious distinction or dispute then. The Utah light artillery was composed of men i differing in religious beliefs, including orthodox Mormons, who had partaken of their church rights, known as the endowment ceremonies. "Major Richard A. Young, the com manding officer of the Utah Light Ar tillery, was one of these. Sergeant Harry A. Young, and others who gave up their lives for the flag, were of tills number. And in so far as these en dowment ceremonies may have rela tion to this Government and unre served and undisputably accurate in terpretation Is given by the record of the Mormons mustered intc the Utah Light Artillery, which served In the war with Spain and during the subse quent Philippine insurrection. No man has a right to question that in terpretation; no true American will do it; it is inscribed in letters of fire by the history of many a battlefield. Owes Allegiance to No Church. “And here In tho Senate of their countrymen, upon the incontrovertible witness borne by the brave survivors and the heroic dead of the Utah Light Artillery, I hurl back the charge of the defamer that there never was a word or breath of hostility or disloy alty In the sacred religious ceremo nies. which they, or any other persons participated In. as members of tho Mormon Churcji. "In closing let me say under my ob ligation as a Senator that what-I have said under oath before the committee, that I have never taken oath or obli gation. religious or otherwise, which conflicts in the slightest degree with my duty as a Senator or as a citizen. I owe no allegiance to any church or other organization which in any way interferes with my supreme allegiance, in civil affairs, to my country—an allegiance which I freely, fully and gladly give." people "might as well look to a bald- headed barber for an effective hair re storer a* to look to the Republican party for a revision of the tariff." Representative Williams' letter fol lows; “I have receive^ your note of Feb ruary 12, and the printed copy of your letter to the Pre-id,-nt -if the petition addressed to the President and the Congress of the United States. The doctrine of a maximum and minimum tariff is not a new one to me. I be lieve I was the first man to suggest it upon the floor of the House of Rep resentatives. As to the doctrine which is sought to he managed by Mr. Mc Creary, Senator Lodge and others, It is. I take it. a new one to everybody. "If Senator Lodge takes the same view of it that Representatives Mc Creary end Cannon and Dalzell do. and I understand that he does, name ly. that the minimum tariff should be the present law. and that a maximum tariff should be something larger by an agreed percentage, my own idea 's to make the present Jaw the maximum tariff and to make a revised tariff tlv rural •carriers for which the bi(l pro vides. He would have the country know that the failure to increase the pay of rural free delivery carriers was traceable directly to the obstinacy of Mr. Macon. Mr. Macon was on his feet in an instant, shaking his finger at Mr. Fitzgerald, he said; “You cannot make any threats against me. You cannot use a whip that you will defeat the increase for rural carriers if I insist upon my point Of order and strike out the incrc-ase for clerks in the big postofflees.” Mr. Fitzgerald with much delibera tion said that it was only by unani, mous consent that the House did not pass on the increase. If therefore the gentleman from Arkansas insisted that there should be no increase in the pay of clerks in city offices because he happened to live in a rural community that then the increase for the rural carrier would have to go, too. Mr. Macon secured a hearing. He com menced to speak about "The pernicious and obnoxious voice on the floor.” He got no further. The chairman's gavel came down with a thump.
