HARRISON AND THE MORMoNS.
Chaplain jackson, q. s. A., Addresses the
Ministerial Union on the Evil,

PHILADELPHIA, June 25-At the meeting of
the Ministerial Union yesterday Rev. DR.. ].
Walker Jackson, ex-Chaplain q. 8. Army, read
paper on "Polygamy of the Mormons." He
gave brief history Of Mormonism. mainly to
show that polygamy was an afterthought OF
Joseph Smith, since the deliverance of the
early manuscripts directly opposed polygamy.
The well proven licentiousness Of Joseph
Smith gradually led to a change of doctrine
and policy and the Introduction of the present
polygamous features of Mormonism.
"The Mormons baptize for the dead" he
said they also marry the dead, and this is by
no means as harmless an operation as at first
appears, since the dead woman must have a
living representative whose offspring shall be
reckoned as belonging to the dead woman and
are not counted as her own,"
When asked what seemed to be the possibil-
ity of overcoming polygamy by the United
States forces, Mr.. jackson said that while he
would not affirm that the last administration
favored Mormonism, he was compelled to say
that 1t touched it with very soft hand. Both
the judges and the Governor dealt kindly with
the institution; practically nothing was done.
But since the advent of President Harrison,
the appointment of Judge Zane and the new
Governor, all was changed and the prospect Of
something being done was quite fattering, and
the Mormons found their wholesale denial Of
the existence of polygaDy was practically use
less and that the laws were now to be rigorous
ly enforced. Besides. the Territory was now
being overrun by ministers of religion who
fearlessly proclaimed the truth. Polygamy
was doomed, he said.

TERMS OF THE DIsPNCH.
PlTTsBURG, WEDNESDAY, JUNE 28. 1885
A UNIQUE PLEA.

The counsel OF young Flann, the default
ing bOokkeeper of the Marine National
Bank, were certainly judicious in directing
him not to talk, unless the statement which
he makes elsewhere is to be put forward as
the basis for a plea of non conlpos naeTatis.
The idea of the young man that because
other employees were engaged in the very
silly practice of buying lottery tickets,
therefore, he was obliged first, to join them,
and, second, to take the funds of the bank
for that purpose and for stock speculation,
is so astonishing that it almost raises the
doubt whether one who urges ii as an excuse
is capable of Distinguishing between his
own property and that of another. But it
seems that he did have conception of the
fact that it was not right as he very
skilltully covered up the shortage for year
or two. Comment upon such plea cannot
hurt the young man as much as the fact
that be makes it; but the latter fact is a
remarkable indication of the absence of
ideas concerning the binding nature of
iduciary obligations that can exist nova
days.
As to the assertion that other employees
of the bank were buying lottery tickets, it
would be pertinent, if they were accessory
to the taking of the bank funds for that pur-
pose, to secure their arrest and punishment.
Otherwise it only amounts to new demon
stration of the old fact that fools and their
money are very promptly parted.

MRS HAYES, DEATH.

The death of Mrs. Lucy Webb Hayes, at
Fremont O., yesterday, removes from this
world a woman whose womanly and mother
ly qualities made her famous as the mistress
ofthe White House, and whose frmness and
good sense in the administration of the
Presidents family was creditable exhibi-
tion of stamina, in which that admlnistra-
tion. as q whole, was somewhat deficient
Mrs. HAYES was a woman of decided
strength of character and firm principles.
Her application Of her convictions in the
management Of the White House entertain
ments occasioned good deal of criticism
among those who imagined that it was nec-
esar to conform the entertainments of the
Executive Mansion to the standard Of Euro
pean courts. All such criticisms ignored
the fact, which Mrs. Hayes Kept clearly in
mind, that the question was solely that of
the management other own household, and
the conduct of her own hospitality, and that
she was responsible exclusively to her own
convictions of right. She was typical of
the best class of American women, and her
death will be mourned as that of one whose
character commanded universal respect and
admiration.

THERE IS A RESPONSIBILITY.

An objection is raised on behalf of the
oil brokers to the practice of blaming their
institution whenever the defalcation of a
cashier or bookkeeper becomes public.
Several points are made, all OF which are
more or less irrelevant, with the possible
exception of the declaration that "no repu-
table broker will take money that he has
any reason to suspect has been stolen"
This would seem to be necessity from the
meaning of the term reputable. But while
recognizing the fact that the oil brokers are
not the only sinners among ten thousand,
it is also necessary to observe that nearly
every defalcatiou of late years has been
caused by gambling operations of some
sort. Whether it is in lottery, stocks, grain
or oil speculation, those who hold out to
young men the idea that money can be hon.
estly gained without returning fair con-
sideration for it, have some responsibility
for the result which appears in shortages,
if not in broken banks.

KEEPING UP THE RECORD.

Such June weather as We have this year
is without a parallel in the memory of the
present generation. 1t is chill mockery
to run into the usual summer talk of the
mountains or the sesshore, OF refreshing
breezes in high attitudes and cool dips in
old ocean, with damp streets under foot,
cloudy skies overhead, and keen winds
searching the bones, as happened to be the
totally unsummery state of things Yesterday.
There is a reason for everything, but the
scientists have not yet established reason
for the weather of the past forty days-at
least none to satisfy the public. If it is
only q chance variation resulting from nor
NAL conditions, it is surely an extreme one
Should it keep up much longer, others than
the merely superstitious may begin looking
for special causes.
One of the immediate effects of the almost
unceasing rain is practically total obstruc-
ton of building operations in the cities.
The husbandman has yet to be heard from.
There is every sign that his contribution
also to comment on the weather will be any
thing but cheerful if there is not a speedy
let.un
