Church Is Divided Into Departments for Complete Management Tithes Are Paid and the Church is rilch President Smith One of the Best Organizers In the West, stronger of Tho Mormon church Is today than it ever was. If It wcro not. President Joseph Smith never would have dared to state openly that he was practicing polygamy In defiance of state and national laws. No church In the world is grow ing so fast. Al sorts and conditions of men arc sought, and over them all the church reigns supreme. The keynote of the Mormon faith Is co-operation. This Is the secret of its success. Each member pays to the church one-tenth of his "In crease," and these "tithes' are turn ed in religiously. The denomination was founded In 1S30 by Joseph Smith, of Sharon, VL Tho government of the church Is a hierarchy, consisting of two or ders of priesthood. Tho order of Molchizedelc Is pre sided over by a president and two counselors. It includes the "twelve apostles," "the seventies," tho patri arch, the high priests and the elders. The Aaronlc order Is an inferior one, made up of bishops, priests, teachers and deacons. The president, Joseph Smith, Is supreme, and next to him are the counselors. Tho apostles constitute a traveling high council, which or dains nrlests and is sunrpmn In or- 5 cleslastlcal affairs. The seventies , are the missionaries and propagan dists of tho order. The patriarch pronounces the blessings of the church and tho high priests officiate in the absence of the higher author ities ditions, and explain tho doings of each man or woman under them. Tho bishops listen to theso reports and report In turn at n conferenco of bishops to the council of tho apostles. Is it any wonder then that a church with such a perfect organi zation can control a state and name every official from governor to con stable? The co-operative principle is car vied Into business affairs of the Mor mons. Besides being president of the church. Smith Is president of n uozen of the biggest commercial or ganizations In the state, Including tne sion Co-operative Mercantile Co., the Zlon Savings Bank & Trust Co., State Bank of Utah, Consolidat ed wagon & Machlno Co., Utah Su gar Co., Utah Light & Power Co. luiuiiu rjsini sail uo. and many oxners. as the church Is supported by tithes,' It Is necessary that the members succeed financially and tho cnurcn sees to it that they do. When the church exercises such ausoiute control over Its members In business nnd religion, it will be seen now readily It can control them politically. SCORES DIVORCES POET LAUREATE'S OFFICE. Austin's Work Not Popular Because of Too High Grade of Poetry, The New York Times makes some caustic remarks about Alfred Aus tin, the British poet laureate, In no- tlcing his recent lecture on "The growing distaste on tho part of the many for the higher kinds of poetry." On this score It avers that Mr. Austin has no cause of complaint since the growing distaste for his ef fusions Is not because they belong to the higher kinds of noetrv. but nulte rtne contrary. They might do, it thinks, for the Annual Floral Offer ing or The Young lady's Companion and some of them on topics of Inter national Interest would grace the columns of Punch, but In the way of epics they "fit the occasion much as a round peg fits a square hole This is severe, but will find an en dorsement by tho great body of read C.

Says Society Recognizes Form of Progressive Polygamy in Its Multl. tudlnous Marriage Marriage Should Be for Life Divorces In creased 150 Per Cent. Tho Hev. Ilaudolph II. . McKIm, rector of the Church of tho Epiph any. Washington, who Introduced In the recent convention of tho Episco pal church at San Francisco resolu tions favoring arbitration in labor disputes, has taken tho load in the effort to have tho church tnko vigor ous action against divorce. Ho stig matizes as polygamy tho remarriage of divorcees nnd expresses himself vigorously In tho following telegram to the Chicago American: Rev. McKlm's Telegram. "Washington, March 26. From the Christian point of view, marriage should he entered into for life. Tho vow nt tho nltnr Is 'till death us do part.' The union entered Into at marriage Is one which may not bo dissolved save for marital Infidelity. The Savior makes this one exception, arfil this only to the absolute Indissol ubility of the marriago relation. "Consequently, when a man di vorced from his wife for any other cause than that of her Infidelity, takes another wife he becomes a polygamlst, since his first wife Is still his wife In the eyes of God. When this process of divorce and re marriage Is repeated again and again as Is often under our lax dlvorco laws, wo have n state of things which may be correctly described as progressive polygamy. "Tho man who takes the course which I hnve described Is indulging a polygamous Instinct as unmistak ably as the Mormon polygajnlst In Utah. Wo are confronted with a very serious state of things In this land of liberty. Divorce has become so common, nnd Is so often obtained upon such frivolous pretenses, thnt tho stability of society nnd tie state Is threatened. "Statistics show that whllo our population has Increased GO per cent divorces have Increased 1G0 per cent. The root of tho evil Is found In tho low and unworthy Ideas too commonly entertained of this divine ly appointed relation. Mnrrlaeo Is entered Into lightly and thoughtless ly, as if the most tremendous of heaven and hell were not Involved." LIFE OF A BATTLESHIP. Monster Vessels of the Navy Only Good for 12 to 14 Years' Service. In a discussion on tho naval ap propriation bill In tho senate tho other day It was brought out that In tho opinion of tho nnval experts the battlcsuips Indiana, Oregon, Massachusetts and Texas would bo retired from the lino in 1908. In other words, that four more years' service would render them obsolete. Tho vessels in question aro not yet 10 years old, -and tho question naturnlly arises: What Is tho llfo of a battleship? Apparantly tho nues Hon Is answered by tho naval ex perts In their declaration that with In four years thesu big fighters must bo taken off the main lino of defense and relegated to tho rear. This means simply that from 12 to 14 years Is tho llfo of a battleship tor nil nrst-class purposes: though of courso It may continue In tho navy as a valuable fighting adjunct for many years following Its retirement from tho Uno. It Is pointed out by navnl oxnorln that battleships are being luillt larger nnd heavier than lieforo. Whllo tho ones In question coat about IS.- 000,000 each, tho now battleships proposed will cost approximately r.x nun (inn nr i That such fighters as tho Toxuh Oregon, Indiana and Massachusetts aro soon to bo considered obsoloto Is partly owing to tho progross made In shipbuilding In tho lust fo wycars. TMero Is also a belief that, the battleship will evontually bo relo cated to tho rear. Tho Japaneso na val engagements thus far havo dum onstrated that tho swift torpedo boats aro dangerous, but, of courso, nothing has been done to prove that weight against weight, thu old naval problem, has bean altered as a basis of preparation. Until tho principle Is displaced a great nation must maintain a battleship forco equal to tiio necessities of its Hltuation. St, Louis Republic.
