INTOLERANCE.

a verdict Of unusual interest has Just
been rendered in the Superior Court 10
Holyoke. Joseph Parker, livery man
at HOlyOke and an attendant at the
French Catholic church in that place,
came under the displeasure of Father
Duiresne, bis pastor, and the latter not
only accommodated him, but publicly
denounced him aud forbade any mem
ber Of the congregation to patrOnize
him. He even refused the rite Of bap
tism to a child brought to the church 10
one of Parker's hacks. The result upon
Parkeris business was serious, and he
sued the priest for damages. The court
ruled in the most positive manner that
while the priests authority in eeelesias-
tical matters was not questioned, he had
no more right than any other man 10
Interfere with Parker's business. Thus
Instructed, the jury rendered q verdict
ot SS, 4SS in Parker's favor. The result
was all the more interesting from the
Tact that there was one Catholic on the
jury. The intolerance which charac-
terized Father Dufresne's action iu this
matter is on par with that which
causes him to FORBID woman to exercise
her natural talents, aud wish her kent

We have received the initial number
Of a new monthly magazine, The Cali
Jornidn, issued by the A. Roman Pub
fishing Company. 90 California street,
San Francisco. The people Of the Pa
cific Slope, and particularly California
aud Oregon, have felt the want Of a
first-class literary magazine since the
suspension of the OUerldHd Monthly,
and the new publication will doubtless
satisfy the demand. 1t is and will be
original. The opening number COL
tains one hundred pages Of choice es-
says, sketches, stories and poems,
printed 10 clear-faced type, the authors
being gentlemen aud ladies well-knOwu
to the literary people Of this coast, and
some having a national reputation.
The subscription price is 50 90 year,
or % cents per single copy, and the
magazine deserves the support OF the
people Of the West, in whose interest il
is published.

A GOOD MOVE.

The Ladies' Anti-Polygamy Society
OF Salt Lake has made move toward
the solution Of the Mormon question,
though little heed will probably be
given to it, as they are without political
standing. At special meeting on the
/ 18th, q petition 10 Congress was drafted,
calling attention TO George q. Cannon's
polygamous relations and open violation
Of the law OF 1862, and asking the ex-
pulsion of the aw-breaker from the
given, together with the number OF
children born TO each. The ladies say
he was elected TO Congress because he is
one Of the ablest aud most strenuous up
holders Of this disgraceful institution /;
that he is now serving his fourth term,
aud his presence in Washington among
the national law makers is a great en-
couragement to his fellow polygamists,
and his repeated reelection to such a
high aud honored position is in pursu-
snce of a threat made by the late
Brigham Young, that he would thrust
polygamy down the throats Of the
American people" The circular closes
as follows:
We do not assume too much In saying that
the people ofthe United States look 10 you for
a solution Of this question, and that you can
commence your work in no more effective
manner than by expelling George q Cannon
from your honorable body.
II the men Of Utah, clothed with po-
litical power, were rs much in earnest
as the women in their efforts to rid the
world Of Mormonism, the result would
be much more readily accomplished.

AN EXCELLENT SHOWING.

The recent municipal election in
Massachusetts has brought into vogue a
number Of reforms promised by the ad-
vOcates Of woman's liberty, and proved
false the assertion by the traducers Of the
movement that lewd women only would
vote, and that ladies would be offended
aud perhaps openly insulted for their
"brazen effrontery." Last week we
published the testimony of the AssO-
ciated Press as to the good conduct OF
the men, and the air Of purity which
enveloped the voting places. In Oregon
the results named were expected, as
there is no distinction made iu this
State on account Of sex in regard 10
school elections, and We are not ignorant
ofthe good resulting from the presence OF
ladies at the polls but in Massachusetts
it is matter Of surprise TO opponents
that the election was so quiet and
orderly. Now that the Bay State has
received an inkling OF the benefits to be
