Smoot To The Capital Next Week

Salt Lake, Utah, Feb. 12.- Senator elect Reed Smoot of Utah, it is announced, will go to Washington next week. His credentials as senator to succeed Senator Rawlins will then be presented. "The protests against my being seated in the senate will make no difference in my plans," said Mr. Smoot. "I expect to take my seat, and I do not anticipate any serious interference. I see no reason why there should be. Nothing can be brought against me except that I am a member of the Mormon church."
