The bill providing for the creation Of a
State Mining Bureau at San Francisco,
which was introduced by Hon. Joseph
WATSON, from Mono and Inyo, will, in
all probability, become law. This
bureau is directly in the interest Of legi-
innate mining and is calculated to devel-
op mining resources which have hitherto
attracted little or no attention. The
bureau will collect for the State speci-
mems of all mineral substances found in
California, the same to be exhibited in
the museum in San Francisco. Each
county in the State will have depart
ment in this museum. Each district in a
county will be represented by sub
division. The museum, its records, and
all the statistical information cleaned by
the bureau will be accessible to those in
terested in such matters. The advan.
tages of practical museum will be
readily comprehended by mining men.

clear that "God is a creation Of the in

say that "religion did not originate

IN THE FASHION JOURNALS.

The Woman Suffrage question peue-
trates every here, aud Is discussed by
all classes Of newspapers. The thought

regarded as caring little for the sufTsage,
and probably are little concerned; they
are imitators of style, aud are not indie
pendently thoughtful. But the women
who plan aud perfect the almost count

genius, and are necessarily quick witted
and keen minded their experience in
the business world has shown them the
disadvantages under which women live,
aud led them TO investigate the causes,
and their intelligence soon couviuces
them that their political disabilities are

The Exclusively fashion journals" are
alive to the position Of women, aud,
while not OpeOly battling for the suf-
frage because they do not desire the
wrath Of some of their weak-minded
subscribers, always take or make oppOr-

THE MORMON BIBLE.

We are in receipt OF letter from Mr..
o. p. Henry, au Astoria subscriber,
who says, in reference to an article IN
the OregoHidR Of recent date concern
iUg the origin of the Mormon Bible,
that his mother, who is yet alive, lived
in the family Of Sidney Rigdon for sew
eral years prior 10 her marriage ia 1877
that there was in the family what is
now called a "writing medium" also
several others in adjacent places, and
the Mormon Bible was written by two
or three different persons by an autom-
attic power which they believed was in
spiration direct from God, the same a.
produced the original Jewish Bible aud
Christian New Testament Mr.. II. be-
lieves that Sidney Bigdou furnished
Joseph Smith with these manuscripts,
and that the story OF the ''hieroglyph-
ics' was fabrication to make the cred
ulous take hold Of the mystery that
Rigdon, having learned, beyond a
doubt, that the so-cslled dead could
communicate TO the living, considered
himself duly authorized by Jehovah TO
found a new church, under a divine
guidance similar to that Of Confucius,
Moses, Jesus, Mohsmmed, Swedenborg,
Calvin, Luther or Wesley, all Of whom
believed in and taught the ministration
Of spirits. The NEW NORTHWEST gives
place to Mr.. Heury's idea as matter Of
general interest. The public will, Of
course, make its own comments and
draw its own conclusions.
