On July l, 1888, the law abolishing
stamps on drafts and checks goes into
effect. The redemption and oancella-
ton Of stamps imprinted on checks are
provided for in the law. In circular
dated June l, the Commissioner of La
ternal Revenue says: n
Imprinted stamps may be presented
for redemption and cancellation at
once, instead of waiting until July l.
Such of the stamps received as are re
deemed in juno will be cancelled and
the blanks may be presented in sheets
or bound in books, and will be re.
turned in the same condition. Blanks
which have beer compressed into
blocks or pads must be separated be-
fore presentation. The cancellation
of stamps will be IL red ink, with the
words stamp redeemed" Claims for
redemption ofimprinted stamps should
be made from form 81, revised April,
1853, copies Of which will be fur>
nished upon application. Care should
be exercised in the preparation Of
claims, as stamps will in no case be
cancelled until the claim for their re-
demption has been examined and
found to be satisfactory. e

MOrmOnism In North Carolina.
New York Times.


CHARLOTTE, June 1.-THE progress
Of Mormonism in North Carolina is
causing much alarm. In the rural
districts remote from towns willy mis-
sionaries are at work seducing the
ignorant into their meshes. In CASTOR
AMI Rutherford counties especially is
this work being carried on. There is
a band Of seventeen Mormon mission
aries scattered around this section,
who keep up no public intercourse,
but meet quietly and compare notes
Of progress and give each other
points. Their principal method is to
tramp through the country and call
at houses on the way for drink Of
water. If they find at horne women
whose weakness they think they can
impose upon they will strike up a
conversation and gradually turn it
into the channel they want. They
appoint meeting In the neighbor
hood, inviting only those whom they
think will be easy subjects of eonVer,
sion. Once in the meeting, morbid
feeling and curiosity lead them on I'm.
til the work ia done. Before being
admitted the converts are being bap-
tized by immersion, and this fact finds
success with votaries oil Baptist ten>
denotes. The baptisms are always 10
the night time, and dupes are lequired
to be in a state of nudity. The halt
dozen counties adjoining Rutherford
are the special fields OF these impos-
tiers Among the more prominent
of these preachers are William Dor
ton and Jabez Brentwell. They have
converted thirty-seven, fifteen Of
whom they have already sent TO

versatiou. aud within half an
hour took them to a pond near By and
bsptised them, when they returned to
their blowing, aud the next day they
were on their way TO Utah. This only
shows how easily these ignorant eEea
lures are duped, and as the Geld OF
operation Is being continually enlarged,
the question is becoming one Of great
interest which the Legislature can be
called upon to settle. The emigra
ticn to Utah does not represent the
full extent of the evil done. Whole
communities give mp their ehuych
relations and become what may be
called semi-Mormons. laying the
ground work for more pronounced
Mormonism hereafter. 1t is from
this demoralized element which re-
mains at home that the trouble will
come.
