George Alfred Townsend, wuting from
Salt Lake, says of Brigham Young:
"With his hair nicely oiled in ringlets
and falling around his heavy neck, hair
and beard luxuriant. and but little
turned in color, a pair Of silver specta-
cles in his hand, and his manner all bland
from his half-closed eyes to the poise of
his knees and feet, Brigham Young
soothes mankind with seignoral hospitali-
ty. We are all introduced, except one
young man, who steps forward and says !:
"Asthere is nobody to make me acquaint-
ed, here is my card, President Young "
at is unnecessary, Sir" replies Brig
ham; "quite needless Be seated" We
see that he is more perfectly at home
than anybody in the crowded room, and
that he has hard, peremptory voice,
plausibly toned down to reception neces-
sites. Looking not more than sixty
years of asr, he is past that period by
half score, and still may have twenty
years to live. OF wonderful robust
constitution, equal to all'the responsible
ties of polygamy, of selfpridc, cool self.
management, and self-will, with an edu.
cation chiefly religious, and an aptness
and ardor for power and avarice, Young
is wonderfully devised for organizing an
ignorant and solemn people, and compel.
ing them to be productive and docile.

beautiful effect was produced by one of
the ice-making machines built lately in
Philadelphia. This was cake of manu-

ry leaf and flowers was perfectly visible,
while the brilliancy of the colors was en-.

y SocDoLoGER.-ln one of the interior
counties Of Missouri lived, some eight
years ago, man who followed preaching
for living. He was called Elder B,
and was called to preach to the Campbell
lites. His peculiarities soon made him
quite noted, and large audiences assem-.
led to hear him. OF late he has aban-
doncd the pulpit, and is now justice-of-
the-piece lawyer. On one occasion when
at the zenith Of his fame, he preached a
discourse on the deliverance of the chill.
dren of Israel, in which he said
Brethren, there are many difficult
passages in the Bible, and you are likely
to be led into error unless you understand
them. Now, you all have read this chap
ter wherein Moses stretched out his hand
over the Red Sea- and the waters became
a wall, and the children of Israel went
over on dry ground safely, and how the
pursuing Egyptians, chariots and all the
hosts Of Pharaoh were drowned Now,
my brethren, as this reads, it is hard to
believe and difficult to explain; but l
will explain it. 1t don't mean what it
says, for tell you have read it in the
original Greek, and it is there all ex.
planned and made perfectly plain; and in
the next translation of the Bible, which
our church is getting out, it will all be
explained Now this passage of Scripture
when properly explained, means simply
this When Moses and the children of Is.
rael arrived at the Red Sea they camped
all night, and it turned cold, and the
''strong east wind" caused it to freeze over
and the truth Of the whole matter is plain
as you can see, that the children of Israe
passed over, "dry shod," on the ice. There
were no such things as great walls. Th'
original Greek will not permit any sucl
unjust and difficult translations. Anc
again, when the Egyptians, with their i'm
mensc armies, heavy chariots and grea
] weights pursued the children on the ice
they broke it through, and were all in
quilted, drowned and lost. This, my breth
rem and sisters, is the true and fair ex
planation Of this circumstance, and tn
original Greek in the next translation
will explain it to you all, and make i
plain"

OUR CALIFORNIA FRIENDS.

There seems to be some feeling mani
tested among our California friends in
consequence Of opposing views concern
ing the policy of supporting independent
candidates, who were in favor of Woman
Suffrage, at the late election i'm that
State. 4 structure on the course pursued
10y our able and vivaciOus contemporary,
the Pioneer, will be found in our Cali
fornia correspondence, published on the
first page of this issue. While we dep
recate the use of harsh words, and fain
would see our brethren and sisters ex-
press their opinions i'm more catholic
spirit, we fail to see wherein the candi-
dacy of Mrs. Gordon for State Senator
for San Joaquin county has in the re-
motest degree injured the cause of Uni
versal Suffrage. But the election is
over. There is no further need TO dis
cuss the propriety or impropriety of
measures adopted during the late cam
paign. Let all dissension be hushed,
and let all work, hand i'm hand and
shoulder to shoulder, for the accom-
plishmeat of our grand and glorious oh
iect

CORRUPTION.

In addition to the eastOunding exposures
of corruption i'm New York city alluded
to a few weeks ago, scarcely a day passes
but brings To us the news of some re-
Gently discovered delinquency. Major
Hodge, paymaster in the I. :. Army
and stationed at Baltimore, is defaulteT
in the sum of S45O,OOO Superintendent
Norton, of the money order department
Of the Washington City postofiice, has
confessed that he is n defaulter in the
sum of Sll5,OO0. And so it goes. The
wife of Major Hodge, up to the time OF
his arrest, was entirely ignorant of his
defalcatiOns, which were the result OF
gambling speculations in Wall street.
Had she been his assistant, or i'm any
way acquainted with his proceedings, i
it not likely that her pure and gentle in
fiuence would have restrained him from
the commission of the crime which
darkens both of their lives? We do not
expect in the coming era of wOman's pO-
litical enfranchisement that all manner
Of corruption will be done away with,
but we do think there will be a great
improvement in the moral character OF

THE "WOMAK's JOURNAL. {"

Our able contemporary of Boston
comes to us regularly and is indeed a
welcome visitor.
Aside from the many good things we
have from time to time copied from it,
plethoric columns, we find long letter
from Virginia City, in the issue of Aug
ust Goth, which leads us to fear that some
disappointed suffrage aspirant has failed
10 receive personal aggrandizement at
the hands of California progressionists
When this woman speaks of Stanton
and Anthony as agitators whose ''cour-
age is commented upon and much rep
rotated" We Opine that she either
knows nothing of what she is trying to
talk about, or that she is piqued over
some personal failure.
Mrs. Stanton and Miss Anthony gave
our cause an impetus in California
whose effect has followed the latter to
Oregon. And when they have the SUI
preme Court, the Church and the people
on their side, which we assure our Jour
nat Is emphatically the case. there is no
use talking, their movement is not rep
rotated unless it may be 50 among their
personal opponents.
Again, this querulous correspondent
says that a prominent gentleman in
speaking Of Laura DeForce Gordon said
TO her: ave should have carried suf-
frage in this State last winter if it had
not been for Mrs. Gordon. If you want
to succeed you must not let such people
come to the front" No wonder this
writer thinks she is "beset by foes with
in and without" She ought to be- The
woman who reviles Laura DeForce Cor
don is either simpletOn or a deceiver.
If the former, she is not able to appre-
ciate this true and noble champion of
suffrage; if the latter, she should no
longer be allowed TO impose upon the
noble ally of our cause, the glorious
WomoIl's Journal.

A SAD CASE.


During the past week the journals oi
our city have from day TO day con-
tanned accounts of the destitution oil
moor. helpless woman, the mother oi
seven small children, whose worthless
husband had left his wife ana on
spring-the youngest a babe-penmless
and without home or shelter, to beg
from door to door, or starve in the
street. 1t said that the wOman's unnat-
uraI spouse was formerly 4 soldier, and
that he has gone to San Francisco to
enlist again, if possible, determined that
if he cannot make a living in that way
he will make none at all. The unfor.
tunate woman says she has searched the
city through and through in quest o
honest employment, but as she is unac,
quainted with any trade or profession
and is capable only of doing rougl
kitchen wOrk-which department o
labor is almost entirely monopolized by
Chinamen-she is Obliged to be depend
ent upon charity. We learn that fol
the time being her necessities have beeI
provided for by the hOspitable citizens
of our municipality.
This woman, doubtless, was educated
TO believe that she was born to be sup
ported by some man. No thought that
il was as necessary for her as for her
brothers TO learn a trade or profession

She was to he the "clinging vine,
the twining tendrils of whose delicate
womanhood should cluster around some
sturdy masculine oak. This was her
maiden dream, as well as that Of thOus-
ands of other girls all over the land, en-
gendered by the false teachings and
customs of society. Had she been told
that the day would probably conle-as
it does come, some time, in the lives of
most women-when, single-handed and
alone, she must go forth TO strive in the
great world of human labor and enter
prise for life itself doubtless she would
have answered, in the language of so
many young ladies of the present day,
''Oh, l intend to marry man who will
support me-"
But dread awakening has come to
her. During all her married life, we
dare say, she has had little respite from
daily toll and drudgery, while the eX-
hausting task of hearing seven children
whose young lives date not very fal
apart, has been rudely forced upor
her. And now, to crown the sum o
miseries, he on whom she built her airy
castles of hope-the sturdy oak aroun,
and against which she was to twine an,
rest secure-has left her crippled, strug
Cling vine of effeminate wOmanhoO,
to stem the blast alone, or fall in weak
ness TO the earth.
No wonder that some women, thu
reared and educated, and then in tim
thus overtaken by misfortune, barte
the priceless jewel of virtue for MOI
sci of bread. The only wonder is tina
under the present regime there are no
scores Of fallen women where now ther
is one. And yet some men prate tina

oUR ROLL OF HONOR.

Miss Anthony's success at Salem was
as complete as at Portland.
supreme Court was in session, and she
had the honor of convincing that hon
orable body that her logic is unanswer-
able. She was interviewed by them at
the Chemeketa hotel, and we could see
that the majority We're ready and will
ing to accept the new and righteous rem
dering Of the Fourteenth and Fifteenth
Amendments.
The supreme judges urge us to make 4
case and test the matter of our personal
enfranehisement at an early day, and
we shall certainly do SO, provided our
brother judges of election prove so per-
verse as to render such action necessary.
This we believe they will not do, for so
much of the foremost judicial talent of
the State is already committed TO the
fact of wOman's right to vote that no
judge who has political AK to grind
and what politician hasn't?-will hard
ly dare to run the adverse chances that
will follow such refusal.
Then the editorial fraternity are rap
idly opening their journalistic eyes TO a
sense Of woman's coming political equal
ity, and are coming over to our cause in
battalions. Some of these are somewhat
tender-footed as yet, but the majority
are men of nerve and brain, who know
whereof they speak and will not go back
on their own assertions. Prominent
among them we may make favorable
mention of the Portland OregOnidH,
Herald, and sometimes the Bulletin,
sometimes the Salem Statesman and
Mercury, Corvallis gazette, the Nancou-
yer Register and Olympia Echo. We
don't wish to exclude any deserving Or
egon or Washington papers in this list,
and if they are omitted they will please
hand i'm their cards and we will take
great pleasure i'm advertising them,

who are on our side we are proud to

J.H.D. HENDERsoN's LETTER.

1t is with pleasure that we give place
to isgentleman's cOgitations; but while
we endorse investigation, free discussion
and free exercise of human reason, we
beg leave to respectfully assure him that
we are not running a newspaper upon
anybOdy's opinions. If, as he assures
us-and we certainly are as unable to
refute his assertions as We are TO dis
prove the astrological conclusions of
Prof. Chaney-his views of Bible doe
trines ''are as impregnable as the eter-
nal hills they do not need the feeble
Endorsement of the NEW NORTHWEST,
and, if they are false, our refutation is
not needed, as they will in time prove
their own falsity. We are not mixed up
i'm any way with religious controversy,
and do not intend to be. We have
proved the Bible TO be wOman's rights
organ, and leave our brethren of clerical
belongings to prove its further infalli-
bility. Meanwhile, Prof. CLANCY, or any
other man who will take woman's
rights stand in the columns of the NEW
NORTHWEST, and who can write read
able, plausible argument, shall be heard.
We welcome everybody to the Woman
Suffrage ranks who works with or foI
the movement. Our belief upon relig-
ious matters is private affair, to be set
tied according to the dictates of our own
conscience.
If our respected brother and co-workeI
had dliSDcred Prof. Chaney's article, in
stead of scOlding us for publishing it,
there would have been vast deal more
of propriety in the deed. Our education
being that of a WOmda, We cannot boast
of enough research among the musty
tablets of the past to enable us to answer
the article in question, even had we the
disposition to do so. Mr.. Henderson,
educated for the Presbyterian Ministry,
should have been amply qualified to re-
ply to it; and if ii is likely to do rs much
harm as he fears, may not his neglect to
answer it be one of the accounts charged
against him at the day Of final reckon
ing?

THE DOCTORS HOLLAND.

Our intelligent, able and lively editor
of the NEW NORTHWEST is mistaken in
surprising that the San Francisco DR.
Holland, who is the practical defender
and champion of masculine free lust, is
the DIR. Holland whose poetical and
other writings have instructed and
pleased and thrilled with pleasurable
emotions the lovers Of the beautiful, the
true and the good in every part of the
English-speaking world. Such produc-
tions spring not from such a soil.-S. f.
Pioneer.
Our able contemporary of the Pio-
noer is mistaken about the identity of
the DIR. Holland whom We have been
vanquishing. OUr Doctor is the verita-
bile poet himself and the articles upon
the woman question for which we took
him to task originally appeared in
.Seribney's Monthly. The san Francisco

WOMAN RIGHTS FEELING IN PORT
LAND.

An article under the above caption,
from the Portland Herald, will be found
elsewhere in this issue. Doubtless some
things i'm it will afford some amusement
as well as be of interest TO the friends of
our cause in Portland. Some of the
statements therein contained are correct,
but for some others we cannot vouch.
Wewill, however, neitherasser nOrdcny
anything i'm the premises. The article
in question is sufficient to show that the
cause of Equal Rights has flourished
and increased immensely i'm Portland
during the last six months, and our edi-
torial brother seems firm i'm the convic-
ton that women will soon use the bal
lot ih this city, and bows gracefully to
the decree of destiny. And he is right,
too, for the ladies of this municipality
intend to vote at an early day. "The
good time coming is almost here
