For the Standard
Latter Day Saints.

MEADOW BRANCH, O., June 27, 1878.
There are two men in this part of the
country who are preaching a new doc
trine to the people here, ii. e., new to the
people of Jackson Co, ) viz: That Joseph
Smith, the founder of the Mormons, was
true prophet. One of them preached
at Cove school house in Scioto township,
last Monday night. and took for the
foundation, of his remarks, the 18th
chapter of St. Luke or the parable of the
great supper" Any one reading the
chapter can see that there were three
commands given to the servants by Him
who made the supper. Now, he delinea-
ted the first two pretty plainly; but when
he came to the third, he used the 9th and
7th verses of the 18th chapter of Revela-
ton, by saying that "the everlasting gos-
pei" in verse 9th, was revealed only to
Joseph Smith when he was IA years Of
age. According to his doctrine, there
are none right except those who follow
their dictator He said in the startin e
out of his discourse, that he was not in a
very good keller to preach, but he talked
until Is min of IL o'clock. They style
themselves Latter Day Saints"

as evidence Of coarseness. Even yet the

A large number of coal banks and coal
mines are being opened in this region, to
be ready to send coal so soon as the S. J.
& P R. R. shall be completed. We have
heard of some who have sent the tailings,
or inferior coal to market, thus giving the
Jackson coal bad reputation at the
start. 1t does seem to us that this is a
very short-sighted policy. Better lose a
good many thousand bushels of poor coal,
and get into the very best, when estab-
fishing the reputation of our coal in new
and important markets.
