In the New York Gazette of May
2, 1889 occurs the following concern
ing the Inauguration of George Wash

"The Scene on Thursday last was

tive powers of the pen to do justice to

The first inauguration OF Washington
In New York City marked the birth
of our National hepubiic. Colouirl
and provincial America ceased to ex-
list, and National America began
The hope of success lay apparently n
one man, revered and beloved as no
other man had been or ever will be,
and upon the successful issue of the
trust to which he was then solrmnly
devoted. What scene in history over
tops or even equals the grandeur and
significance of that glorious consecra-
tion ? 1t is right, too, that as the
first inaugural ceremony occurred in
New York City, the centennial cele-
bration of that event should take
place in the metropolis. The sculp-
tured figure of the illustrious hero
and statesman which stands In that
city, will be the central point of the
commemorative demonstration. And
could a more appropriate place be
found! The patriotic feelings aroused
by the memory of the event have re-
suited in material action for its proper
observance, and the celebration of the
anniversary will be Of a National
character-a grand civic, military
and naval demonstration, probably
eclipsing the cemmemoration of any
event which has heretofore occurred
In our history.

that he will be SO placed. Turner will be

Anderson would be pleased to give his
service to the committee on appropria.

the latter will hardly go out of his way
to serve MIR. Anderson.
Senator Plumb will be chairman of the

4 To,rn Taken bv an Elephant.


WEST POINT, Neb., Nov. 9.-This
town was captured by an elephant yes
terday, and it was not until after four
hours fight that the animal was SUBJ
dued.
The animal came in on freight train
for Sonneheim s. Co., who intended to
use it for an advertising scheme. but
when $500 freight bill was presented
they refused to receive it. The freight
agent thereupon telegraphed to Omaha
for instructions, and while waiting for
an answer the elephant broke loose and
started out on a tour of the town. The
animal first took possession of livery
stable which it nearly demolished and
then took possession of Browns new
building, knocking.out the elegant plate
glass front, and then went tor Drake s
drug store, knocking out one side and
MASKING in the front. By this time the
police had secured posse and finally,
after long tussle, the brute was dragged
back to the railroad yards A large force
of men are now guarding the animal un-
til orders are received from the Union
Pacific officials.

AGAINST THE HORIZONS.
They Went Through the Endowment
House and Took the Iron
Clad Oath.

SALT LAKE. Utah. Nov. 3O.-Judpe
Anderson to-day. in an elaborate and
carefully prepared opinion, denied the
applications for citizenship made by
MOrmens who had taken the endowment
house oaths in the Mormon church. The
applications have created wide spread
attention and for several weeks past the
judge has been taking testimony.
Iu the opinion. in which he states his
ground for refusing admission to such
applications of the Mormon church, the
judge says the Mormon church has al.
ways been hostile to the laws of the
United States. disloyal to the union and
seeking its overthrow; and that the oath
administered to its members in the en-
dowment binds them under penalty of
death to implicit obedience in all things,
temporal as well as spiritual to the priest
hood, and to avenge the death of the
prophets Joseph and Hiram Smith, upon
the government and the people of the
United States.
The objectors to the right of these ap-
plicants to be admitted to citizenship,
introduced eleyen witnesses who had
been members of the Mormon church
Several of these witnesses had held the
position of bishop in the church and all
had gone through the endowment house
and participated in its ceremonies. 1t
was shown that these ceremonies in
clude the taking of an oath that he or
she, as the case may be, will avenge the
blood of the prophets Joseph and Hiram
Smith upon the government of the
United States. and will enjoin this obli-
CATION upon his or her children unto the
third and fourth generations; that he
or she will obey the priesthood in all
things and will never reveal the secrets
of the endowment house under penalty
of having their throat cut from ear to
ear, their bowels torn out and their
hearts cut out of their bodies. The right
arm anointed that it may be strong to
avenge the blood of the prophets.
The evidence establishes beyond any
reasonable doubt thai the endowment
ceremonies are inconsistent with til
oaths of citizenship. The application
of Jno. Moore and Walter ]. Edgar,
both of whom were shown on the former
examination to be members of the Nor.
mon church and to have gone through
the endowment house, are therefore de-
MED
