Delegate Toole, of Montana, in pre-.
senting additional argument before the
committee on territories in congress re-
cites with pride the fact that at the re.
election Montana cast g, 800 votes upon
which he bases population of l65 600
Montana is entitled 10 admission, but
how much stronger are the claims OF
Dakota. Its total vote was l05, 900 at the
same election. The vote of North Da-
koia is larger than that of Montana, il
being 390i6. The vote of South Dakota
alone Is 6. 665, more than twice that OF
Montana, and yet Montana makes a
strong case in her claims for admission.
1t is. clearly shown that she has more
population than is required in the states
for one member of Congress and that has
always been the requisite population to
entitle territory TO admission. There
should be admitted at this session of
congress, Montana, Washington, South
Dakota and North Dakota. They each
contain as large population as any state
ever had at the time of its admission,
With the possible exception of California.

HIGH TIME TO ACT.

The Board of Missions which has just
closed its session in Des Moines, Iowa,
wound up with a respectful protest
against the wrongs which had been
committed in this country against the
Chinese, and requesting that reparation
be made. This resolution was called
forth by the news of outrages upon
American missionaries in China. 1t is
high time-that the Church in this eoun-
try took decided stand and made its
influence felt for the protection of the
Chinese who come to this country or
if the church will not do this it should
at least have the decency TO keep out of
China with its missionaries and offers
of better gospel than the Mongolians
have been born and reared in.
Not few Christian ministers
join with the rabble in the warfare
against the Chinese, and from
the pulpit exhort their congregations
TO hatred against the Asiaties. A few
years ago a prominent minister in an
Francisco turned his church into att
Chinese headquarters, and by that
means had himself elected mayor of the
city. Other ministers would as soon
think OF giving up their pulpits and
grubbing roots for a living as to de-
the abuse of Chinese and ask
for Christian treatment of the heather.
The dogs have not been outraged and
in the United States as
much as the Chinese who were invited
to come here and enjoy the benefits and
blessings OF our free institutions and
our ennobling Christianity; and what is
worse, the prosecutors in majority of
the instances of outrage and brutality
have been protesting Christians. The
protests have come from the eastern

THE ANARCHISTS.

If any decent, laW-abiding people re
tanned lingering spark of sympathy
for the Chicago Anarchists, it las been
smothered by the speeches of the pris-
onersdeliVered in court on Thursday
and Friday. Rarely, if ever. have such
utterances been heard in a court of jus
tee. gQnecan read how some genera
tons ago religious martyrs and occ8.
sional fanatics defed the authority
and institE tons of governments, and
proclaimed their adherence TO princi-
pie and belief from the. scaffold or while
the FIRE was consuming their flesh. The
martyrs snd fanatics, wrong though
some Of them may have been. COM
manded respect by theif unfinChing
de otion to principle and Integrity of
belief. Besides, the causes for which
they laid down their lives were not vile;
they were not criminal in their nature,
and as 8 matter of fact affected
most the parties themselves. In
the case of the Chicago An
archists, their devotion is madness;
there is none of the elements of hero
ism in it. Their cause is the vilest
imaginable; it cannot be tolerated any
where on earth where there is a pre-
tense of government; it SCOTS at all au-
thority. deTides society, and denies
both community and individual rights,
if their doctrines we're to prevail,
mans personal safety would depend
upon his physical ability to defend him
self, while such a thing as property
rights would be unknown; there could
be no such thing as society, unless men
and women engaged in pTeying upon
the persons and possessions Of each
other could be called society: there
could be no order; peace would be out
of the question, and life itself would
soon be a thing Of the past. 1t seems
incomprehensible how a human being
can become an advocate of the mon
strous doctrines of hate, disorder and
destruction taught b. these apostles of
Anarchy, and it is past understanding
how any man can claim q virtue for
believing..and teaching such hideous
creed as theirs. Yet these men. in the
face of death, hold up their heads
and rejoice in their iendish deeds, and
proclaim delight in their helIish doc
trines. When men come to their way
of thinking it is time they were placed
where they cannot preach their in
famous principles, and inspire others
with the hate which has permeated
and poisoned their very natures and
turned them into viler creatures than
nature conceived it was possible for

slope of the continent and have usually
encountered square opposition in the
west. where the church and people unite
in denounclng other people for manifest
ing feeling of humanity. While the
Chinese in America have been kicked
and cuffed about, and deliberate and
determined effort been made to starve
and drive them out, missionaries have
been sent to China by the score to con-
vert the Confucians to the gospel of
brotherly love, of humanity, of peace
on earth and good will to men. Can
there be any wonder that the mission
aries make but slow progress in their
work? Isn't it matter of surprise
that any progress whatever has been
made2 Considering the reports that
reach China regarding the treatment of
the Chinese in this country, it is some
what astonishing that missionary or
any American is permitted to live in the
Flowery Kingdom. That Americans do
live and thrive there is an argument IN
favor OF the better religion and the
larger humanity of the Chine e.
. It's certainly time for the church in
this country to do something for the
protection of the. Chinese, and that
something should be more than sim
pie protest by the missionary toard.

WHAT WILL SETTLE IT.

When the seH-appointed opponents
of the Mormon ChRTcn, who have been
anxiously looking 10 these many mo tbs
for a revelation commanding the prac-
tice of poiygamy to cease, read over the
Epistie Of the First Presidency of the
Church 10 their followers in conference
assem- bled, they will experience pang
of disappointment. For the whole
Epts,le breathes 3 calm determination
th.f simply and emPhaticslly means
..noSurren6er." One clause III it says,
oar enemies gloat over the prospect of
ourdestrucion. Even those who feel in
cliaed to be friendly can see no pros
pect for our deiverance except by the
abandonment of our religion. But
it Is bstter for US 60 die than to
abandon our God! We cannot do this
without throwing away allhope respect
ing the future and the great eternity
that awaits u.s." l5
But it is better for us to die
than to abandon our God" That
one senteBce expresses the sen
timent of every honest Mormon.
Kez may ssy, and Supreme Court may
decide, that this is not question of re-
Hgion, out the fact that it is a question
OF religion remains IL spite of such as
,sertions and decisions. It is a religious
controversy, involving the question of
the truthror faisity, ct Mormonism; and
on such Gu issue, the Mormon people
will bring all the strength of their reli-
.gious conviction. Religious controver-
sizes andIpersecutions IN other ages and
in other nations reveal to us the
amount of suffering men are capable of
enduring before they will deny their re-
ligious faith. The thumb-sCrews, the
rack, the gibbet, the PRISONS gloom, BAT
ishmeRt and the block have not had suf-
cientiterror in them to force from the
lips ofsthe sufferersa Reputation of his
religion. There Is every reason to be-
lieYe that the Mormon people would
endure all that any people ever have,
rather than deny that which they be-
ievets have been established by revela-
ton from God; aad can suffer more
crueities than the United States can
afford to infict. Nearly every nation
on Gods earth has branded itself some
time or other with eternal infsmy by |
these religious prosecutions; bat it is
surely to be hoped that the great Re
public of America, with al the e1-
penence of the past before it for its
profit and learning, will Ryoid those
issues;and escape all shame.
The great moral forces which are at
workin the earth, snS~hich are grad
ually, but nevertheless surely testing
all theories and systems, could be
trusted to deal with Mormon polygamy.
And those are the forces which event
laaIly will settle the Mormon problem,
AMI net the harsh enforcement of
laws.
