The testimony brought out in the In vestigation of the case of Sentaor Reed Smoot on Wednesday was interesting and instructive, as throwing light on th history of the Mormon church and the prevailing beliefs and practices of Its members, but just what relevancy a larsre part of it had to the case of WANTED A COMPETENT GIRL for housework in family of four, Inquire at Astorian Office.

British Ship Loch Garry's Fine Run From Melbourne Home. The Liverpool Journal of Commerce, just at hand, tells of a spanking run. made by the British ship Lock Garry, which went home from Melbourne in SO days. The voyage is one of the best on record. Of the vessel's fine passage the Liverpool paper says: The report of the fine sailing ship Loch Garry has Just 1 been received by us, and Is particularly Interesting. The vessel left Melbourne for London December 11. 1903, and arrived at Graves-end February 29, 1904, after a passage of 80 days. Captain Home re ports strong and favorable winds com ing across the Pacific ocean, and some splendid sailing was made. In 13 con secutive days 3463 knots were accom plished, averaging a trifle over 11 knots per hour. Between Cape Horn and 35 degrees south latitude a great deal of dense fog was met with. St Paul's rocks were sighted the day af ter crossing the equator. The Lizard was passed February 25, after a 76 days' run." February Maritims Loses. The Liverpool Underwriters' Asso elation has issued its monthly returns of casualties ,to vessels of over 500 tons gross register during February. From this it is seen that the total losses include three British sailers of 3847 tons, three British steamers of 10,412 tons, six foreign sailers of 5318 tons, and eight foreign steamers of S940 tons. The partial losses were: British, 26 sailers, and 225 steamers; foreign, 46 sailers and, 191 steamers a grand total of 20 loses and 488 par tial loses. These figures are, gener ally speaking, lower than In the cor responding period of last year, but higher that the figures for the same month in 1902 and 1901. Two Big Lumber Cargoes. Two big lumber cargoes, aggregat ing almost 2,000,000 feet, were cleared yesterday. The American bark Louis iana, which goe3 to Manila,, takes 1, 051,710 feet of lumber, valued at $11, 520.10, while the schooner A. F. Coats goes to San Pedro with 725,000 feet of lumber, a total of 1,776,710 feet. Lum ber clearances have been few during the present month, but the showing for March may yet be a good one. MARINE NOTES. Captains Edwards and Fuller will be in the city today to inspect the steam er Bee. The oil steamer Rosecrans has aboard 1000 tons of fresh water for the oil plant at Oleum, CaL The weather was not as pleasant yesterday as it might have been and there was little doing along the water front The French bark La Fontaine has finished her grain cargo. She takes 111,328 bushels of wheat worth $86, 844, and goes to the United Kingdom. The steamship Elder departed yes terday for San Francisco. Nearly all of her freight was in bond and con signed to the collector of customs at made known to him a revelation cotn manding polygamy. Polygamy was subsequently practiced unMl President Woodruff was blessed with a revelation permitting its abolition. President Smith also received a few revelations when In a state of "inspiration," but has had the misfortune never to have encountered the "angel In black." He and his fellow sectaries still think po lygamy right although not necessary. Now, none of these facts has been or ! will be denied, we suppose, for none of them is at Issue. The matter to be de tetmlned by the investigation is not whether the Mormons have a number of peculiar religious beliefs, or whether they regard the practice of polygamy as consistent with religion and good morals. The question is not even whether Mr. Smoot shares the object ionable beliefs of Mormonlsm. The sole matter that ought to be deter mined is whether or not Smoot has violated or Is now violating the laws of the state or bis country, or has com mitted or is committing any Indecent or immoral acts which unfit him to be a United States senator. What Mr Smoot or anybody else believes In re- rard to religion Is not in the present instance, or at least ought not to be, a matter of inquiry. The reason for this Is obvious. To take his mere beliefs and opinions Into account or even to draw them forth and exhibit them before the country and thus bring ridicule upon him. Is to persecute the Utah senator for his ro- llglon upon the pretense of protecting public morals, and thereby violate that freedom of religious worship which Is guaranteed by both the spirit and letter of the laws and constitution of the United States and of the several states. So long as he obeys the laws and com mas no overt act which outrages the moral sensibilities of the nation, Mr. Smoot is entitled, to 'the protection of Its laws and. to whatever offices, prop erty or other advnantages he may ac quire under them. The fanatical and persecuting spirit which has been man ifested in the Smoot case, does no credit to a nation which expressly guarantees religious freedom to all Its people. Kansas City Journal.

The victim Is a rather Wood less specimen of humanity, but said he could raise J300. This sum he bor rowed and paid to his blackmailers.
