az ,xorHEE page We publish brief sy

~. ,v,ruEE page We publish brief syn
-,,,a, of the sermons OF Reverend WILLIAM
- yrpr Of st. Johns Church, ard Reyer-
II, " WERpEE, of the German Luther
-, Cbprch, delivered last Sunday. These
ssrmons are the first Of series on the
,r,,..t Of temperance and are in answer to
rrouzst that they join in the movement
r,- rrohibition in this State. These rev.
md gentlemen represent large and
:,a,,orti,I class Of our citizsns-a class
that 10 not often heard from, who are not
5smonstratiye, who are temperate, law
,,;liny orderly and GOd-loying. These
,sysrend gentlemen oppose prohibition.
They oppose it on the grounds OF morality,
.sr,Derapcs and Justice. They believe in
rrn,isbipv the drunkard and not
IN nupishing the decent, temperate
,;,izsn who derives an actual
I.spsft from, and physically needs, stimu-
l,,ts in moderation, for the sins OF the
5rupkard They DO not believe, TO use
m. illustration of one OF these pastors, that
,,a rrohib;tiou OF alcoholic drink will pro-
b;bit intemperance any more that the pro-
b,hifion of guns aud pistols would prohibit
murder. They appeal strongly for tenn
,,.rtpcs in all things and for every thing
tbat will conducs to temperance, begin
nins with education and the bringing up
O, children in the paths of morality.
We regret that the majority Of our citi-
l.,s cannot hear these excellent sermons
from the mouths OF the pastors themselves,
q, they must necessarily lose much force
tbrau,h translation and condensation.
The REGISTER, however, will endeayor to
overcome this difficulty and to give this
valuable and temperate class of our citi'
lsns hearing on this important question.
THIS morning We publish the full par
ticulars Of the resignation of Mr.. DAVE
Johnson from the craftsmanship of the
S,sts Central and Executive Committee Oi
the West Virginia Prohibition Amendment
league, together with his reasons for re-
si,ning Slr. JOHNSON is one of the mosI
vigorous and earnest prohibitionists in the
State aud the leader of the third party
movement. The abuse of the alleged non
partisan prohibitiOnist5 which drove him
from the head and front o.
the league is blow that
will do more than anything else .tC
defeat the amendment. Indeed it is said
to have been we'll planned scheme Oi
anti amendment politicians to manipulate
the psohibjtiOnists and to defeat the
amendment, and it is further said that
thee 'nna-partisan prOhibitiOnists" are
nothlug more nor less than anti-amend
ment politicians maSquersding as prohlbi'
tiouists. One thing at least is sure, which
Is, that the only hope that the prohibition
ists have is in third party out and out,
inclrGiug tull ticket. The third party
people are honest, straight out pronlbl'
tionls.s.
Il isa peculiar kind of prohibitiOnist
who will rot join the party that is dedi'
Gated to prohibition, but on the contrary
hight. Il tooth AMI nail. At least so il
seems - q man up a tree. We refer Our
rralrrs 20 Mr.. JoHNsoS's letter Of resig'
nation sent US from Parkersburg. It ex-
plains the situation very fully.

What Thurman Thinks of It.

PrTTsBURG, Oct. Elm an interview
with Thurman he said of the senate tariff
bill: 1T is a badly planned measure and
a%ggravates the evil, l notice they copy
after the Mills bill very largely. 1 have
not read it in its entirety, but [ know
enough about it to say hat it is not nearly
as good a measure as the Mills bill. 1t is
nothing more than a bid for votes. They
keep up the tariff in manufactured arti-
cles to capture the votes of the manufact-
urer and likewise the duty is preserved on
raw materials to please the farmer. 1t is
a badly mixed affair"
WASHINGTON, Oct. 6.-Judge Thur.
mar arrived here this morning and has
accepted the invitation of the Wheeling
delegation to make a speech in that city
on Oct. 30. The Judge will be the guest

The Mormon Conference.

SALT LAKE, Oct 6.-To-day was the
second day of the Mormon fall confer
ence. Apostle Grant called loudly for
tithiug, saying that those who paid freely
were the most happy and prosperous.
He declared that saints must live up to
the whole law of God.
Elder Morgan called for the education
Of Mormon children in schools where
they can learn. Joseph Smith was the
prophet of apostacy, not so much because
OF the infdelity as of the ignorance OF the
true principles of the gospel.
Apostle Richards declared that saints
must love the Lord and educate their chill
dren in the faith. 1t is the duty of the
priesthood to look after this, but it is not
done. They must promote young men to
look after this.
Elder Noble thanked God that he had
seen the old scenes. We must be united
and carry out the principles of the gospel;
educate our children properly and no
power on earth can prevail against us.
Abraham H. Cannon, a ~penitentiary
martyr" said he had seen the place
where the saints had been driven. These
places had been cursed of God and are
unfit for the habitation of men. 1t is
not crawling to accept %martyrdom from
unjust hands, which is only a test of our
faith. The kingdom of God is now es-
tablished never to go down.

The Deficiency Bill.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 6.-The conferees
on the general deficiency bill have paved
the way for an agreement on ali the re-
naming points of difference, though action
has not vet become final. The provisions
to pay the remainder of the years salary
to the family Of Chief Justice Waite and
pay the extra years salary to the widow
of Lafayette h. Dancy OF the internal rev.
enue service, will be struck, as is also the
provision to extend the laws of the United
States over No Mans land. The senate
is induced to recede on the last named
provision to save the bill. it being under
stood that the point of mo quorum" will
be raised by someone in the house if that
remains in the bill. A probable agree
ment will be reached before Mondays
session begins providing for a continuance
of the work in constructing the building
for the Woman's Christian home in Salt

NEW YORK, Oct. 6.-The bears were
in good spirits this morning and to-day
sold stocks freely. While the buying was
scattering and inefficient, the days trans
actions were quiet and the tone was weak

to bring about this result. The temper of
the room was bearish on the expectation
that the bank statement would show a loss
