THE Rev M w. Montgomery, represent ing the Home Missionary society of the Congregational church, addressed the sen- ate committee on territories yesterday morning in opposition to the admission of
 Utah, and in favor of legislation to sup press the evils of Mormonism. He said the 100000 Protestants and 6,OO0, ,0O0 Roman Catholics of the country are unit in condemnation of Mormonism. They asked that congress shall break the delu- sions under which the Mormon people live the delusion that their church is stronger than United States government-that Christ will Himself appear on earth and work victory in their behalf. He assured the committee that congress could not legis- late int diligently upon this question until it adopted as one of its fundamental prin- ciples that Mormonism is lie and fraud

A mistake in the Interpretation of
some orders from the general land OF
fee caused the Michigan land Office at
Crawling few day ago to throw open
some of the Indian reservation lands
in Isabella county to homesteaders.
The redskins at once dug up the hatch
ct and went upon the war path, hut
they did il in the regular civilized style.
and no blood was shed, although it
might be said that for time some of
fetal scalp was in danger. As soon as
the general land Office heard of the
error telegram was sent to Grayling,
ordering all illegal entries, If any had
been made. to be cancelled. This was
about five days ago, and some of the
friends of the irate redman, who hadn't
heard of the correction, made kick
TO Postmaster General Dickinson as
soon as he reached Detroit on Wednes-
day, threatening to tip the state right
up on edge If he didn't fix things.
Don. M. thereupon wired Washington
and soon received reply which will
allow Michigan to ride upon an even
keel for while longer. Detroit Ne,os
