South Speaks its Mind.
RICHMOND VA, M. E. CONFERENCE.
EDITOR FREEMAN:
One of the most interesting dis
cussions of the session of the Gen
eral Conference occurred this morn
ing. 1t was altogether unexpected
and consequently more enjoyable
and expressive.
The Committee on Temperance
read a well written, strong Report,
but which was opposed to any
change Of Disciplinary Rules bear
ing on the question, regarding the
present language clear and compre-
henslve of the Church's position
Rev. w. A. Gambler, of Georgia,
offered an Amendment to the Re-
port, making the selling of liquor
an immoral act, and to be proceed
ed against as such, according to the
Discipline. The change is really
more technical than practical, in
its bearing, as may be seen by con-
sulting the Discipline.
Mr.. Gambler supported his
Amendment by an impassioned
Temperance address, which was
sufficient to lineage slum bering
volcano of Prohibition fire. For the
space Of nearly two hours, the large
audience in attendance was held
spell bound by stirring, heartfelt
and heart reaching appeals in be-
half Of mother, Home and Native
Land" Frequent were the
"AmensW and cheering was the
applause. There was no timid,
uncertain musketry, but a loud
and determined canonade!
1t was the universal sentiment
of the Conference that every liquor
seller in the NJ, e. Church, South,
must either quit his meanness"
or quit her courts.
1t was certainly most gratifying
to every Christian and Temperance
worker present to see a great eccle-
siastical body take a pronounced
stand on this vital question. The
Discipline was thought by many to
be sufficiently explicit to rid the
church of all rum-sellers, as well as
drinkers. But some did not 50
think, and hence the action to-day.
Every pastor was urged to enforce
the law.

A NEW BANNER.

The Republican press in its opposition
to John HALEY has substituted the dirt,
endowment robe for the bloody shir
which so long served as Rupublicar
banner in its warfare upon the Democ
racy. The unclean under garment is
Haunted in the faces of Uncle Johns
supporters with as much gusto as was
the sanguinary raiment which was so
industriously waived until year or two
ago. The Republican organ mere said
this morning that the election in Idaho
was a test of the manhood of the
people OF that Territory. 1t is a test of
their common sense. If they are de-
luded by the silly and unsustained
charges of Jack Mormonism against the
Democratic candidate, in the face of the
platform upon which he is running, and
his own words and actions, the first
duty OF the Legislature upon converting
would be the making of an appropriation
OF sufficient amount to build and support
a Damphool Infirmary large enough to
accommodate half of the people of the
Territory.

THE APACHE CAMPAIGN.

The capture Of Magnus, the
Apache chief, and his followers, who
withdrew from Geronimo's band when
the latter contemplated surrendering to
General Miles, sets at rest all fears of
further depredations, and forever relieves
the people of Arizona and New Mexico of
the dread OF new butcheries by these
tiends. With the whole crew in far dis
tant military prisons, where they can
never hope to again trouble the people of
the West, the duty of the military arm of
the Government is performed, and, how
ever much the cavilling at the methods
employed to obtain this condition of
things, the people of the country in gem
eral will not fail to bestow hearty thanks
upon General Miles and his hard-worked
command, and overlook any inaccura-
cies that may have occurred-if such did
occur-ln the methods used by them to
clrcumvent the murderous devils, who
long since lost all right TO recognition as
ordinary warlike foes. OF course the
whole truth cannot be arrived at until
Congress meets in December next. and
calls for all correspondence on the sub
Ject, but the main facts as they now ap-
pear, exalt General Miles in the good
graces of the people, and that is all he re-
quires. The writing of the record of the
War of the Rebellion, shows in every
contribution that personal jealousies and
contentious among those high in COM
mand sadly interfered with the speedy
prosecution of the war, but no man can
be found who will Withhold praise to Grant
and the Generals under him, who finally |
ended it. 1t is just so in the Geronimo /
affair. Personal jealousies and hatreds |
have undoubtedly entered largely into /
the conduct OF the matter, but Miles
seems to have taken the bit in his teeth
and jumped the hurdle, and left the future
to take care OF itself, and by so doing he
has placed himself in the same position
toward the people as Grant did, i. e., he
has by clever stroke of strategy, freed
the campaign as much as possible from
red tape, and ended it on the basis of
success, and after all is said.
that is what he went on the campaign to
do. Those who remember the peculiar
license given to Sheridan in his cam

JOSEPHITE LECTURES.

Elsewhere in the DEMOCRAT is a letter
from Rev. S. j. Anthony, President oi
the Josephite Mission in this Territory.
He announces that course of lectures
will be given by Elder Clapp, of Mon
tana, who will argue the Divine inspira-
tions of the Book of Mormon. The Pres
ident very justly complains that the
Josephite branch of the Mormon Church
has been confounded by many, who do
not understand the difference, with the
polygamous and reasonable organization
which is outraging morality and decency
and which has established theocratic
political government in Utah in opposi-
ton to the National authority of the
United States. The DEMOCRAT has no
warfare TO make upon this branch of the
Mormon Church. Its members are
mostly good citizens, conscientious in
their belief, of good moral character and
sustainers OF the laws of the country in
which they live. They denounce all of
the practices and methods which render
the John Taylor Church a menace to
the Government which has so long toler-
ated its existence. 1t is a fact that
the Josephite Church was the first
sectarian body which memorialized Con-
gress against polygamy, and it has always
taken an active part, perhaps more than
any other denomination, in showing up
the horrors, abuses and infamies of the
institution conducted by Brigham Young
and his successor, the present President
Of the so-called Church of Jesus Christ
Of Latter-day Saints. The Josephites
have the same right to believe in the
Divine origin of the golden or brazen
plates of Cumorah as in the stone tables
Of Mount Sinai, and so long as their be-
Lief leads them into no violation OF the
law or outrage on civilization, they are
entitled to the same respect and consid-
Grafton that is accorded other religious
denominations. We hope that the lee
lures will be well attended and that good
will result therefrom.

THE helpful application of the results
OF the researches of science to our every

titled Shoppel's Modern Houses, issued
from l9l Broadway, New York. With
this book in his possession, an ordinary
workman can build from the foundation
to the apex of the roof, the most beauti-
ful cottage homes imaginable, doing
away with the work of costly architects
and superintendent, thus lessenin the
cost OF building in large degree. The

redemption of Utah.

FROM the tenor of our dispatches, il is
evident that the peninsula formed bv the
Ashley and Cooper rivers in South Caro-
lima, is the center of all the subterranean
upheavals of the past two months. The
fact that the surface of the earth has
cracked open and exudes an oily liquid
and fine sand would indicate that the
seat OF the disturbances is near the sur
face and that untold trouble NAV vet
occur there. The criminal outlines of
the windy and vapid Virgins can now
be realized, when one thinks of the hor-
rors OF living over pent-up volcano and
that the people cannot get away from its
threatening dangers. Never has bastard
science produced more contemplate

CHARITY.

In the cold lexicon OF the English Ian

position Of heart which inclines men tC
think favorably OF their fellow men, anC
to do them good; love; benevolence
goodwill :" but in the warmer and more
God-like lexicon of the human heart ii
means vastly more. That charity is a
virtue implanted in the universal breast
OF humanity is proven by the writings OF
travellers who have invaded all climes on
the earth and found the heavenly at
tribute as fully developed among the
lowest orders of humanity as in the
effulgent rays OF high civilization
and modern enlightenment. Christ has
placed it on His immortal record, that
to possess all virtues and be without
charity is to be without perfect manhood,
All seasons, times and places are fitting
for the exercise OF this divine virtue, but
none more so, than when the cheering
sunlight is chary of its caresses to man.

IT is quite evident that Colonel w. NJ.
Ferry's nomination meets with favor
among nearly the entire loyal element in
this vicinity as we are confident it will
throughout the Territory. As it was
doubtful until his nomination was pub
lished whether there would be an anti
Mormon candidate to vote for, conse-
quently many Gentiles did not take the
pains to register. Notwithstanding this,
however, it is believed that he will re-
ceive nearly as large a vote as was ever
cast for Liberal nominee for the same
position in the Territory. There should
be full representation on election dav
OF the American vote, for each one cast
for Colonel Ferry is a protest against
Mormon rule, and encouragement to our
friends in other places to aid us in the

paigns in Virginia, by Grant, cannot but
look upon the figure he now cuts in this
affair with surprise, for if Sheridan had
been hampered with red tape, he could
have achieved no more than others who
were so hampered. His wish was to
''push things" and Grant permitted him
to do so. Miles wished to "push things" 4"
and he followed out his wish. 1t remains
to be seen, whether Sheridan is as mag
unanimous now as Grant was when
Sheridan violated many commands, but
covered himself in glory in SO doing.
