In this doce ment the pontiff says that his chief ob Jeet In addressing the faithful In Fraoce Is to comfort them a their suf. ferings, which hie feels deeply. There is, however, great consolation In the fact that the Catholics of France are united, and the French government's declaration of war Is Issued not only against the Christian faith, but agalost All spiritaal ideas. Says the holy fa ther: : “The French Catholics must he pre pared for all sorts of trials bat they were cerfaln of victory, This means the maintenance of thelr nnion with the holy see, which is of the greatest importance, as shown by the efforts of the enemies of the church to dissolve the uulon. Contrary to the stafements mnde on the sulifect, the church does nut desire a religions war, Involving violent persecutions. Belng a messen- ger of peace and carrying ont her mis sion of loyalty, the church will not willingly expose herself to war and persecutions, as she does not desire to see her children suffering.” His holiness contipues: “Instead of against the rising tide of popular reprobation the government attempts to throw the responsibility on the church, its victim.

Extensive Mistery of Latler Day Saints Glvea by Ilinpis Seantor. Cunnot Impeach Him Ver Private Acts. WABHINGTON, Jan. 12 -A general service pension bill was psssed by the senate which If It becomes a law will give to survivors of the elvil anid Mex- ican wars who have reach the age of sixty-two yoars §12 per month, $15 to those seventy and $2 to those seventy five years of age The first argument (no behalf of Reed Emoot was wade by Senator Hopkins (Ii), who coutended that the senate had no authority to pass judgment on the private ncis of Hs members. He defended Mr. Buwoot's private charae ter. - Mr. Hopkins took the position that senators were not federal officers to the extent that the senate could pass upon thelr qualifications and eligibility or could impeach them for high crimes or wisdenieanors. If a senator was to be punisbed it must be done by the state or federal! courts. Ouly federal officers, he malatalued, were impeach alle, sud this iwpeuchiment wust be for acts committed as such federal offi. cers. The precedent cited wes the unsuc- cessful effort to lupeach Seuator Blount (Tenn), charged with tressouable cor respondence with s foreign bation uiore than a hundred years ago. The conclusion then, Mr. Hopkins sald, had ever been reversed, and that was that tishe senate had no right to try the case, as Senator Hiount was not an of- ficer of the United States. After citing other cnses Mr Hopkins remarked that it was unuecessary for bim to waultiply evidence to demon- strate his point that individual states bave no power to add any qualification to a senator other than those prescrib- el by the federal constitution. Refer riug directly to Mr. Smoot, he contin- ued: “It Is conceded by the chalrman of the committee on privileges and elec tions that Senator Soot possesses nll of the qualifications spoken of In the eunstitution eelf. It is also conceded not only by the able ebairman of this committees, but [ think by all who are at all familiar with the case, that Sen ator Smoot Is not a puiygamiet; that he bas never married & plural wife and has never practiced polyguiuy; that he is &# man In his personal relations as son, husband, father and citizen above reproach; that (on all of the relations of citizenship he bas lived 8 singularly pure and opright Me." ile then asked: “Why, then, should he be expelled from this body, dis- graced and dishonored for life, a stig: wa placed upon bis children, his own life wrecked and the happiness of his wife destroyed?! He is a Christian gen tleman, and his religious bellef has taken him loto the church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, comtmeunly called the Mormou church.” Mr. Hopkins sald he felt sure that those representing the Protestants would wot contend that there was any apostolic oath which bad been taken by Mr. Swot which would prevent blz from discharging his duties as senator. Mr. Hopkins sympathiced, he sald, with the desuuciation of polyga my made by Mr. Burrows In his recent speech. It was, he believed, a relic of A barbarous age aud un destroyer of the ileal American home, aud he had no sympathy with the practice. “Never befure In the history of the government,” Le declared, with great eniphasis, “bas the previous life or ca rest of & seuator becu called ln gues tion to determine whether he should remain in the senate or not. “If members of suy Christian church were to be charged with all of the crimes that have been committed in its name, where ig the Christian geutle man lo this body who would be safe In his seat?’ Al extended history of the Mormon church was given by Mr. Hopkins, who concluded that the testhiouy taken be- fore the senate committee demonstrat ed that It wus undergoing a radical change for the better and that Senator Smoot represented the Ligher aud bet ter Mormonisin He denied that the Prutestauts bad mde good in any of the charges sgalost Mr. Swmoot, ufter reviewing these charges and the argument to sustalo thew at length, and coucluded with the declaration that be would be false to his onth as a senator If he vot od to expel Mr. Swoot froggy the sen Ale, Sp Sepator Fulton esked Mr. Hopkins whether the Mormon eburch had reed ofulzedd the tweuly polygnumous mar ringes which the evidence shows had taker place since the mauifesto of 18m, . Mr. Hopking sald the church had pot recognized these marringes, that under the laws of the Mormon church today such arridkes were not permitted and that the partes contracting them knew they were violating both the civil Jaw and the clivrel law, aud for that res soir all of these marriages bad been consttmnated In Canada Mr. Dubois asked If Mr. Smoot had done auything to being these [ersons to Justices.
