Haskell, member of Congress from Kansas,
upon the Mormon problem. He characterized
Mormonism as a reSurrected system of the

relic of barberism. The early leaders of Nor
mons were proverbially branded as criminals.
He reviewed their frequent removals and ex-
planned their relations t. the United States
since they removed to Utah. He traversed
Delegate Cannon'ss defense of Mormon
ism, and pointed out that the
doctrine of the church was a
conglomeration of pety, immortality and ven
geance. Its influences were degrading

salubrious climate, and the only secret Of the
churches success was organization, and The

The remedy lies with Congress, which can

Reduction of RoM Frciai.t.

NEW YORK, June Sin relation to the re-
duction of freight rates which has been called
for by the New York Central railroad CON-
pany, u reporter interviewed Commissioner
Fink to-day. He said considerable matter pub
lished was bosh and there was no foundation
for It, He said it was accurate that on
April 11th q reduction of five cents
per 100 pounds was ordered in consequence
of the violation OF previous agreement. He
was aware the freight carried by the Erie rail
road was greatly in excess of the ire ght traffic
of the New York Central railroad, but said he
was positive no unfair means he'd been used
to bring about this excess. He had heard that
there was to be meeting of presidents of the
different trunk lines, but did not feel at liberty
to divulgc when or where it was 10 be held.
In regard to the statement published that he
had received no reply from the Erie road to
the communication of the New York Central
road, he SAID no answer was necessary; that
when one road announces that it will
carry freight for less than the reg
ular rates, other roads have no
remedy but to follow in the reduction, or else
stick to the former prices, and as result
have all the traffic go to the road which
charges the least. 1t was also published that
the last reduction to twenty-five cents per 100
pounds did not entirely satisfy the demand of
the New York Central road as this road is said
to have proof that some other roads carried
grain from Chicago as low as eighteen cents
per 100 pounds. Fink said that to his knowl-
edge no road had carried grain at that low
rate, but that if the New York Central road
was not satisfied with twenty five cents per 100
pounds it could publish demand that the rate
be made as low as 1t wished and it would be
ACCOMPLISHED

Great Manufacturing City of Dakota.
The party of gentlemen, mentioned In the
here to attend the annual meetings at Sioux
Falls of the Sioux Falls Water Power company
and Dakota improvement company, had a
delightful trip and most pleasant experiences
in Sioux Falls. En- route they stopped for a
view of the wild falls at Minneopa, and be-
yond had opportunities for observing the
glorious promise of plentiful harvests, and the
substantial evidences of prosperity throughout
the southwest counties of Minnesota. AT
Sioux Falls the morning hours OF Tuesday
were devoted to the annual meetings of the
two companies, which resulted IN election Of
officers as follows:

After The business meetings the gentlemen
of the companies looked over the water pow
er, quarry and mill property and we've then
taken in carriages by the mayor and citizens
to view the town. The hospitality of the city
was very pleasant, and of course the visitors,
being heavily interested in the
place, were glad to note ev-
licences on every hand that the city is pros
porous and growing. The citizens were con-
fident they would have at least one more rail-
road, and, indeed, while this party was there,
CORPS of engineers arrived to survey line
for the Burlington, Cedar Rapids & Northern
railroad company, which is proposed to be
built from Albert Lea via Worthington to
Sioux Falls.
The water power company was considerably
injured by the freshet tn Is spring, but is push.
ing its improvements to completion
and will have its great Touring mill ready &c
go into operation by the first of September ol

clude the development of stone quarries
which promise to be the most valuable west

CHICAGO, June ga convention of book,

held at the Grand Pacific day, to discuss the
alarming evil of trade unsettlement of values

adopted requesting publishers of school and
text books to make only net list of prices
from which no discount shall be made to
others than legitimate booksellers, and
that to Others there be an addition of Is per

recommending publishers to place reasona-
BILE retail price on their goods, and adhere
strictly thereto, except to legitimate book
sellers; that publishers and sellers add post
age to books sent by mail; that publishers and
jobbers discontinue discounts to booksellers
who retail at less than publishers prices.

State, and fancies that there is very
general demand that he shall enter the
race. 1t is reported that he has formed
several combinations with influential
politicians, and that the caucuses will be
industriously worked in his behalf He
probably stands as good chance as any
other candidate, provided he does not
lose his grip.
Hon. A. r. McGill. our present insur-
ance commissioner, thinks he has call
to serve the State in the executive chair.
He has made very good official in his
present position, but his competitors say
he is yet too young to aspire to so high an
honor as the governorship. But younger
men than Mr. McGill have been elected
and made very good governors too.
Hon. Clark w. Thompson, of Wells,
thinks the people of the State would
honor themselves by elevating him to the
high Office of governor. Mr.. Thompson
is granger, and president of the State
Agricultural society. He has good dea
of herse sense, and is besides quite popu.
lar among the farmers, the Free Masons
and in other directions. He is in some
respects the superior of all his competi.
tors, and is reported to have "bar. +:
of quite liberal proportions.
Getting up north Lieut.. Gov. Gilman
looms up formidably. He is candidate
for reelection, with his lightning-rod uI
for the higher position. Mr.. Gilman will
become formidable candidate if the
southern part of the State cannot agree
upon one of their number.
There are possible complications aris-
ing from the bond question and the Unit
ed States Senatorship which may tear
things up considerably. There are signs
of bad blood and storm which the Dem
ocrats can view with great complacency.
