CATTLE DISEASES.
They Exist AIarmingIy in Great
Britain. and are Found Here

=
Washington, 20.-Dr. Salmon, Of the
Department of Agriculture, who Is an
expert veterinarian, states that he has
come to the conclusion that the cattle
disease in the District of Colum bla,
which caused so much excitement few
months ago, was not contagious pleuro
pneumonia. The only cases OF genuine
pleuro pneumonia known to exist st
present in the United States are ID Con
necticut, and there are only two herds
affected. The precautions which have
been taken are, in the opinion OF DR..
Salmon, ample to prevent con tamination
and he does not believe the disease will
spread.
Chicago, 2O.-London advices say that
foot and mouth disease is making alarm
ing progress in England snd threatens
the ruin of tens Of thousands of farm ers
of that country. The recent unfavorable
seasons caused many throughout the
midland counties to abandon tillsge and
devote themselves more to grazing
and butter making, cattle becoming the
principal staple Of these counties. The
disease now extends from Cheshire
across the country to Lincolnshire, and
along the eastern and southern coasts as
far as DeVonshlre' 1t exists IN Vlru-
lent form, and is Of an epidemic nature.
Grazers and farmers are almost panic
stricken and populations daily besiege
the privy council to take measures to
check the spread Of the disease. At the
last meeting of the council it adopted a
plan long In force in this country, which
is practically from disease, to check the
movement Of sound animals, through
infected districts, in order 10 reach the
mArkets, but that is deemed insufficient
and it Is urged that the stock markets
and fairs will be closed during the COM
ing autumn md winter in all districts
where The disease has appeared at any
time during the year. Should this course
be adopted American cattle raisers will
find a better market in England than
heretofore. The absurd cry that the in
fiction was introduced from this country
has ceased.

NORTHERN PACIFIC.
Evarts Pays in Praise for his Rid

Evarts Pays in Praise for his Ride.
Chicago, William n. Evarts, who
returned from the Willard excursion yes
terdsy, was enthusiastic about the
country traversed by the Northern Pa
cifc, its resources and It's future. Said
he, one is introduced TO new form Of
topography when he sees the vast plains
of Dakota and the table lands of Mon
tana. The agricultural resources of the
country are countless, and while it may
not become exactly the granary of the
world, it will certainly furnish US all the
bread we can eat and lots to spare. The
time will come when great portion of
the Northe Pacific will have to be double
portstion which the rapidly growing
population will make upon it. The road
bed is good and was easy to build. There
are few grades and obstacles which have
to be commended with. When it is re-
membered that the outlet Of the road is
six hundred miles nearer to Japan than
San Francisco, you can see what an
advantage the Northern Pacific route
will have. The harbofs Of Puget Sound
and the entire upper coast are good.

WORKING THE CHURCHES.

The following article is from the New
York Sun, and it shows what is thought
abroad about the manner in which Iowa
churches are being used as political ma.
chimes by the republican party:
The Iowa republicans are trying to
carry the state on the issue of prohibition.
They are doing good deal of dirty work
in the attempt But the end always jus
titles the means to faithful republicans.
The republican managers in Iowa are
working the church with unexampled
thoronghness. The ministers have been
called upon to come out in defense of the
grand old party, and they have responded
nobly. 1t is said that moro than FIVE
hundred sermons were preached from
Iowa pulpits last Sunday in behalf of the
republican canvass. After the services
collections were taken up. The pro-
ceeds will be sent to the republican state
committee, and will be used in saving the
state by foul means or fair from the sin
aad shame of democratic rule
Mr.. Jay Hubbell was an unschooled
boy compared with the managers of the
republican campaign in Iowa. 1t was a
pretty piece of business assessing char
women, but the Iowa conception of rails
ing campaign fund is more sublimely
impudent 1t is reported that circular
has been sent to the churches, assessing
them $40 each for campaign purposes. "
The Methodist churches seem to have
been especially jealous Unfortunately,
some Iowa democrats, exceptions, no
doubt, to the general depravity of their
party, are members of Methodist
churches. At Des Moines, for instance,
a democratic candidate for legislature
belongs to church, the pastor of which
delivered fierce republican sermon last
Sunday, and then called on his people to
make up contribution of 300 TO the
republican campaign fund. This kind of
thing is not pleasant for the democratic
church members and many of them have
made up their minds to leave churches In
which they cannot worship without being
abused and insulted.
There must be republicans in Iowa who
cannot see without Indignation, any more
than these democrats can the foolish and
wicked attempts of ministers of the gospel
The Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1877-1885, 1883-09-17

to leave the direction of consciences and
assume that of political opinions. Things
have come to pretty pass when the SER
vices of the churches are turned into
stump speeches, and preachers with the
name of God fresh on their lips impor-
tune then congregations for money to help
men like James F Wilson keep their grip
on the state. No, this attempt to work
the churches is likely to do the rePubli
cans more harm than good.
We advise the Iowa ministers who have
been collecting assessments and making
republican harangues in church TO be very
careful. They mean well, but their judy
ment is not good. Otherwise they would
see that their intrusion of bitter partisan
ship into sacred places is dangerous
thing. They can do a great deal of harm
to religion in the communities in which
they live, and in the long run they will
find that the republican party will not
gain votes by means of their'advocacy.
1t is grave question which is the more
disgusting, the dishonesty or the hypocrisy
Of certain republicans.

THE TARIFF SUBJECT.
From the St, Louis Republican

Consistency in politics as in other
affairs of life is not without value. Stead
mess of purpose and fidelity to principles
are admirable, whether in parties or indi-
vi iuals When not carried to stubborn
ess and not degenerated into mere pride
of opinion these qualities are as useful as
they are honorable We observe that
certain journals and individuals row com
batting the idea of the Democratic party
should take any decided or advanced
g ,ounds on The tariff quest on attempt to
ii Id warrant for a course dictated purely
By policy in the utterances of the party
in past years in different localities and
in widely separated states and in the ex
preston of leading Democrats in peculiar
and difficult circumstances. 1t ought 10
be apparent to ali capable observers that
|, the Democratic party cannot and ought
not to be bound by considerations such
as these The subject of the tariff is
surrounded by different considerations
and is influenced by widely different facts
from those prevailing dozen years ago,
or even four wears ago. The proper de
mands of the for revenue are greatly re
duced; the industrial state of the
country is widely changed the education
of the people on economical questions
has advanced UNNECESSARILY in the past
| few years. Declarations which would
have been impolitic, imprudent and re
| tarding in other years on economical sub
jects would oday not only be polite,
prudent and wise but are demanded by
the highest considerations of political
sagacity The hour seems to have como
for the Democratic party to take an al.
vanced, unequivocal and philosophical
position to which it may invite the best
thought of the country and from which il
will never again recede. No business
interest need be disturbed; no vested
rights impaired; no violent changes cal.
culated to brighten even Sthe most timid
need be made. A policy should be pro
claimed which would completely revise
and reform our revenue system, cut of
needless taxation, relieve the treasury of
surplus revenues and untrammel the com
merce of the country. This is what
Patriotism and policy alike demand now
of the Democratic party.

Foreign Mails.

NEW YORK, Sept 10.
As the Postmaster General has agreed to
comply with the general desire of merchants
and others TO send the English mails only
by the fast steamers, when ii is convenient
to do so, it was concluded to send them
September 5 by two of the fast steamers
sailing from this port-the Fulda
and the Gallia Postmaster Pear
son received dispatches from London
stating that the Fulda had reached South
ampton on Friday at ten a. m,, and the
Gallia had arrived at Queenstown at one p.
m. the same day. As there are only two
trains-one morning and one evening-from
Queenstown TO Liverpool, and it takes
twenty-five hours to go from there to Lon
don, the Galla's mail did not reach London
until seven O'Clock Friday night The time
from Southampton to London is about two
hours and half, and the Fulda's mail was
distributed in London at eight p. M, or
twenty three hours before the mails from
Queenstown.

A Pair of Mormon Elders Rightly Pun
ished by Indiana Townsmen.
BRooKvu.LE, Ind, Sept. Is.
For several weeks past pair of Mormon
elders have been preaching in this county
whenever they could secure the use of a
church or schooi-house. They have spent
much time in the vicinity of the
town of Laurel, and were given accom-
modations by one ID. W. Adams. They
left there for other fields, and on Monday
last Annie, an eighteen-ye ar-old daughter
OF Adams, disappeared from home. A
search was instituted, and she was found con-
cealed in house at Cedar Grove, where the
elders We're visiting. She had been convert
ed and baptized into the Church of Jesus
Christ by one Of the elders, and had been
in hiding several days before she
was discovered by her parents 1t
was with the utmost difficulty she
was persuaded to return to her home,
as she was thoroughly convinced that the
Church of Jesus Christ was the only
church of true faith, and she wished to go
to Utah. Last night the elders were found
in the house of Ellison, a few miles from
Laurel. There about midnight they re-
ceiyed calls from one hundred and fifty
able-bodied men, who escorted them TO the
woods and made them strip and submit to a
coating of tar and feathers They were
then threatened with lynehing if they did
not leave the country speedily.

a means for laying up their small saw
ings. Since the failure of the Freed
mans Bank the negfbes have been
reluctant to risk their savings. The
greatest evil which threatens the colored
laborer In the South was the store system,
which corresponded with the truck system
of the North. The most of the negroes were
in the power of the shop-keepers, who
charged exorbitant rates of interest, some
times as high as twenty-four per cent. q
year.
Mr. Hinton was the next witness. He
declared that what the country needed was
a revolution in the law of equity in regard
to corporations and the distribution of
wealth. This was to be accomplished by
gradual legislation, as the present system
was built up by this means.
Florence Elizabeth Cole, principal of the
school of industrial art for women, spoke Of
the employment she taught as being admir-
ably adapted to women, and very remnner-
alive Designing was required in the man
ufacture of carpets, wallpaper, gas-fxtures,
wood-engraving, silver work and the like,
but the designers in this country were
Frenchmen. There were large industrial
schools in Paris, where the most thorough
instruction could be obtained free.
