tica Of poiyRamy among the rest The inferior
order OF Wifohood, however, known In the
Scriptures as eoncubinRge II not recognised
IN the Mormon Church. By the marriage
covenant ali women eohabitinR with q man are

II Is unauestionably true that the question
between polyaamy and monoRamy is one for
civilization to determine, and that Christianity
has not foot Of ground 70 stand upon in com
batting the former practice. But civilization.
condemns It, and condemned 1t before Christ
was born The people to whom Jesus
preached were far beneath the level OF
the contemporary Hellenic and Roman ciyili-
zations. Nor can IL be doubted that the
subsequent attempt Of Roman and Byzantine
Emperors to enforce monoRamy among their
Asiatic subjects accounts In no small degree
for the ease with which Mohammedanism
overran Syria and the eastern half of Aeia
Minor. After setting forth the sociological as
well as ScrirturRl arguments out forward by
the Mormons in favor OF polyRamy, Mr.. Ban
croft sums up his own opinion by Affirming
that, while the .oleration Of plurality OF wives
cannot be looked upon as conducive to the
highest well-beinR OF community, the coer-
cion Of the Mormons in this particular is not
consistent with the highest type Of morality
and social liberty. We may add that our East
ern commonwealths might do wen to eradicate
far more grievous social evils before inyeiRh-
ing with 30 much severity against the Mormon
custom Of supporting several wives
Before taking leave Of q volume which con-
tains more authentic information relating to
the Mormons than has ever before been made
accessible we would note what Mr.. Bancroft
says regarding the responsibility for the
Mountain Meadows massacre. He assures us
that 1t may as we'll be understood at the out
BET that this horrible crime. so often and so
persistently charged upon the Mormon Church
and its leaders, was the crime, OF an individual
John Doyle Lee). the crime OF fanatic OF the
worst stamp. who was a member OF the Nor.
mon Church. but OF whose intentions the
Church knew nothing, and whose bloodyacts

the price would not have been affected.
On the other hand, if only half the
quantity had been marketed, the farm
or would not have been benefited by
half a cent advance in price. Why?
Because the exchanges visited daily by
the spectators have fixed the price
for the crop when the seed are placed
in the soil. Speculation alone gov
ems and controls the price of cotton,
and not the extent of the crop. The
State Alliance of Georgia should
ask the cooperation of every
State growing cotton to resist this
fixing of the price. If prices are to be
fixed. we should have a voice in the
matter. We should demand and do
away with so much classification, and
only have four classes or grades. The
farmers did not get more than st or 81
cents per pound average for their crop
last year. Now that it is out of the
farmers hands, the speculator is get
ting So to SO on every bale. Farmers
should act as a unit in breaking up
the unholy ombinatiOn against them.
We consume but little cotton goods,
comparatively speaking, and we can
better afford to pay a reasonable profit
to the manufacturer for cotton goods.
when we get a reasonable price for our
cotton. We sell cot on at z to 9 cents
per pound, and pay for cotton sheet
ing in Augusta, one yard wide. by the
bolt, 81 TO g. cents per yard. New we
can better afford to pay for the same
goods 10 to y cents per yard, with our
cotton at Is cents per pound, than the
first-named figures at the present price
we get for cotton.
The second question is that of labor
In order to revolutionize labor and
make it more pleasant and profitable,
a change in labor must be brought
about The proper way to do this is
to hire our labor like the merchant
does a clerk, for six days in week,

FAMlLY STANDARDS.

What Makes the Training of Chtidre1 OF
Such Great Responsibility.
No stream can flow higher than its source
The combined honesty of any family will
ncs e higher than the laws governing its
training.
The individual who was born and trained
in family where strict integrity and truth
were unknown has that much harder bat
tie to fight in overcoming the tendencies of
his nature. tbs this that makes the train
ing of young children such tremendous
responsibility.
Is there a sadder sight than the puzzled
expression of chiId's face when the mother
whom it loves with the whole strength Of
its being utters a social falsehood in its
presence? and yet it is not SO rare sight
as it should be. Can there be a standard OF
truth in family where the daily life OF the
family is an untruth, where the effort to ap-
pear is far greater than the effort to be?
To give a child the right standards there
must be harmony in his life, and there can
be no harmony without truth The small
boy in an infant class struck the very fOun-
dalton Of life when he exclaimed TO q lit
tie girl covered with shame and confusion
because her cap had been knocked on, re-
vealing a smoOthly-cropped head and the
row of curls sewed fast to the ruches
OF the cap on the floor: "Ha! ye
needn't be so 'shamed If ye hadn't made be-
level" 1t is the make believes that

children to speak the truth" is but small
part of a moral education. Are they taught
to live it? Is the home life, by example as
well as precept, a life of truth? Within a
few days the papers have recorded five
heavy embezzlements. The principals con-
cerned, as far as their histories have been
revealed, were men who had peculiar
social advant ges; at least three Of them

were men who had had every educational
