Footnotes

1. An address in the 12th- 13th Ward on Washington's Birthday, Feb. 22, 1925.

2. An address delivered by radio on "Electric Night," October 21, 1925, at a national celebration, sponsored by General Electric, in honor of Thomas A. Edison, for his greatest contribution to mankind-the incandescent lamp, 46th anniversary.

3. Old timers talked incessantly thirty-five years ago in Utah of the blowing up of the Johnston army munitions in Utah and of the government's action against Floyd incident to the outbreak of the Civil War. Floyd was the son of a Virginia governor and came from a long line of Virginia pro-slave leaders. His uncle, in 1824, made the first speech in Congress in favor of taking the Far West. In it he described the Navajo Indians, the snake river salmon, and the easy approach through the south Pass.

4. Werner's Brigham Young. Webb, in the Mystery of Mormonism builds up as strong a case as Werner's salacious volume; in fact Werner almost copies Webb throughout with the ornamental trimmings that make best-seller material.
