offended laws of both his country and his

offended laws of both his country and his
Lodge.
But how is it with the Mormon? Is
he taught to obey all the laws OF the
land? Is he taught that it is sin
against God and his fellow-man to set at
defiance any of the laws of the country IN
which he lives? Is he taught that un-
swerving loyalty to his Government is
necessary to make him a good
citizen? Hardly. But the very reverse
of all this is true. He is taught that his
allegiance is due to "higher power"
than the Government of the United
States: that he must live in obedience to
the so-called revealed laws of that higher
power" and violate the man-made laws; /;
that the Government officials here,
charged with the enforcement of the
laws, are only the vile tools of an ire
sponsible earthly power, whose sole aim
is to oppress and heap indignities upon
the Saints for their religions sake.
These are the teachings of Mormonism;
and where acts of violence are committed
by members of the Church, in pursuance
of such teachings, it is right and proper
that the blame should be laid where it
Justly belongs-at the door of the Church.
The Neps, in its peculiar way, may
keep on "refuting" this charge until the
crack of doom, but it can never shift
upon other shoulders the responsibility
for the dastardly outrages which have
been committed in this city within the
past few weeks.

The San Francisco Post recounts the
story of the recent outrage upon the per-
son of U. S. District Attorney Dickson,
and adds the following: "There is not
the least danger that Mr. Dickson will be
scared out of the performance of his
duty. He is not that sort of man. \
Under all the circumstances, this faithful
and hated officer would be justified in
arming himself and executing the next
Mormon assassin who attacks him.

SPEAKING of superstitions,a writer says
the old notion that there is luck in a
horseshoe finds support in one case at
least. When Maud S. did her first really
fast mile in Cleveland in 2 2:10R, Captain
Stone, of Cincinnati, who owned her,
pulled off her shoes and stored them in
his desk, and sold the mare to Wander
bilt for snug price. He has been max
ing money ever since, and capturing the
best things of life. The Captain kept
only one of the shoes. He gave one to
Mrs. Swain, and she gave it to her larger
brother. He hadn't had it week before
he was married to one of the most charm
ing ladies in New York. He has been
prospering like a green bay tree ever
since.

OUR NAVAL ESTABLISHMENT

Report Of the House Commute Rccommend-
Ing the Construction Of Vessels.
lBy telegraph 10 the Dispatch.l
WAsHINGToN, d. c., March 5.-The
House Committee on Naval Affairs has
completed its report, &C., accompany
ing the bill providing for an increase OF
the naval establishment. 1t points out
that the geographical situation of the
United States, and the relations this
country bears to the other great ma
tions are peculiar. The United States
has no rival on the western
continent, and it justly feels secure
against any attack an enemy might
make upon it by land. But it was
without adequate means Of defending
its foreign or cOastwise commerce.
Cities scattered along long line OF
sea-coast were absolutely at the mercy
of any second-rate naval Power of the
world. There is not q town or city
along our whole coast from which
tribute could not be successfully
exacted by any modern fleet.
The following is statement of the
destructible property subject to tire
of an enemy's guns taken from a
paper by Lieutenant Griffin, Of the
United States army: Portland, Me-,
$33, 600, 600; Boston, 81 1900 {;
New York, $l,oSj, 100000; Jersey
City, $l13,0O0,000; Philadelphia,
$7S9,OO0,OOO; Baltimore, s2l9,O0O,-
GOO; New Orleans. $l76,000.000; San
Francisco, $50, 100000. This list
omits all mention Of Wilmington,
Charleston, Savannah, Jacksonville,
Mobile, and the entire Texas coast.
After describing minutely the de-
fenceless condition of our coast the re-
port says We are so helpless that
YOUR committee would hesitate to pub
lish the fact to the world where it not
already everywhere else better known
than to the people Of America. Every
great naval Power is providing itself
with a fleet of steel vessels to cruise
against an enemy's commerce while,
excluding the six cruisers now build
ing, the navy of the United States, in,
stead of keeping pace with the world
is not equal to our navy OI
1850. The committee, therefore
having first decided that the Gov
ernment should take steps at once
for the construction Of moderate
number Of modern vessels with arma
ments of the most approved type, 90
| themselves at work to decide what type
Of vessels should be recommended tC
the House. These are two armoreC
cruising and battle-ships Of 5000 t
5000 tons three armored cruisers o
5000 to 1000 tons having a speed o.
nineteen and a half knots and on'
torpedo-catcher and four tOrpedo-bOat'
of 1900 to loo tOns-all Of theS'
vessels to be of domestic manufacture

opinion delivered on the 4th day of
March of this year at Williamsburg by
Judge Henley the case was disposed OF
at last in favor Of the heirs Of Mrs.
Macauley, who had been waiting for so
many years for the adjudication of their
rights. The opinion Of the Court gives
to these heirs, some Of whom live 10
Virginia and the others in Baltimore,
Md, an amount considerably exceeding
$4,000 The counsel in the case were

Especial telegram to the Dispatch.l
ATLANTA, GA, March 5.-Bishop
Beckwith to-day rendered his decision
in the case Of Rev. DR.. j. &. Arm
strong, rector of st. Philips Episcopal
church, of this city, whose trial on the
charge of immoral conduct in Cincin-
natl was concluded few weeks ago.
The Bishop ratfies the finding OF the
Ecclesiastical Court and sentences DR..
Armstrong to five years suspension
from the pulpit. The report of
the Bishop has created great dis
cussion in the city, and elimination and
recrimination is being INDUCED in by the
Episcopalians tonight. st. Philips
is the most fashionable congregation in
the city, and about ten years ago had
a misunderstanding with the Bishop
about the title of the ground on which
the church was built. The Bishop en-
Joined the church from selling part OF
the lot and won the suit. A division
occurred in the church and st. Luke's
was built, and was made by the Bishop
his cathedral. Since then there has
never existed the best Of feeling be-
tween the two congregations.
Dir. Armstrong has been in Atlanta
three years, and at once became very
popular in the city. He was regarded
as the most learned and eloquent min
lister in the city, and was loved by
every body except the congregation OF
st. Luke's. Last August DR.. Arm
strong went on a vacation to Cincln-
natl, and while there was charged
with getting drunk and visiting bawdy-
houses. He explained by stating that
he went at the request of a dear
friend in Canada to hunt for the
friends fallen daughter and that ne
found her. lie denied getting drunk
and offered the evidence Of Murat Hal
stead and others to disprove the
charge. The Ecclesiastical Court tried
the case week in Atlanta, and found
him guilty of intoxication and of visit
ing bawdy- houses, though they agreed
that there was no evidence to show
that he visited the houses for othe'
purposes than stated. DR.. Armstrong
admitted that he drank beer, but says
that he did not become intoxicated
The sympathy Of the whole city ha
been with DR.. Armstrong, and there i
general disbelief of his guilt. &C
lie will not talk tonight, but it i
thought that be will make an interest
ing statement tomorrow. The vestry
men of st. Philips church feel par
ticularly outraged at the Bishops yer
dict, and are loud in denunciatiOa
They sustain DR.. Armstrong to a man
as does every member Of his church.
