EDITOR REVIEW: Not man

material or moral interests of the

devices which have reached the high
tide of public endurance. lam glad
the REVIEW has Sounded the call to
arms in this needed reform, and
pointed out the duty of the clergy
with reference to it. That duty was
apparent to my own mind before,
and was only waiting an opportuni-
tip TO fulfill it. Perhaps those best
acquainted with the representatives
of the Methodist pulpit in this city
will test tify that 1T is not in the habit
of lodging an important issue from
personal considerations or fear, nor
Is it to be hushed into silence
by such motives .as this

Nothing would cause such decided
manifestations of disapproval In this
quarter as the presence of u Meth

The church should be q school Qi
conscience and moral principle, and
should he the leader i'm all moral re
form. -
Personally, I accept your criticism
as just under ordinary circum-
stances. 1t is not just, however,
that the unsettled condition of the
churches since the fire should be-
considered, by which some of the
pastors have had little opportunity
to speak upon any theme. In my
own case other interests have un-
avoidably interrupted and not until
the present have l had control OF
my pulpit. / am glad that the edi-
tors for once have got ahead of the
preachers on q moral issue, but we
are abreast of you i'm our future ptir-
poses and you will have to run II
you keep pace with US.

continued his speech for the Times. lie
said Parncll paid William Redmond

The Church Disloyal to the

THE AMERICAN FLAG INSULTED.,
"If the Mormon Ulcer, Were Out
Out, the Star of the United ~
States Would Set"

SALT LAKE, Nov 22.--In the Mormon
investigation Henry w. Lawrence was
recalled. He had heard many sermons
preached which were disloyal, and the
general tendency of tho teachings of the
church all the years he belonged to IL
was to ALLEVIATE the feelings of the peo-
pie from the government. He believed
the Mormon people would become loyal
II the leaders did not teach disloyal doc
trincs.
Witnesses We're also called to testify ~
to the demonstration in 1879 in honor OF
the release of Daniel Wells, who was
committed to the penitentiary for re-
iusing to answer questions in the polyg-
amy trial; also as to now many thou
sand Mormons paraded the streets trail
ing the American flag in the dust and

The prosecution offered In evidence q
paper served on a member of the. Nor
mon court by Bishop liiswad, citing the
member to appear in the bishops court
and be tried for obtaining u Judgment in
the federal court against fellow Nor
mon. This was introduced to demon
strate the truth of the charge that the
church dictates and controls the tenn
poral as well as the spiritual affairs.
Extracts Were read from the sermons
of Taylor, in which he said that if tha
government "cut out the Mormon ulcer
the star of the United States would set
in a sea of blood. .r~ uss
An extract was road from recent edi-
torial in the church organ announcing
that polygamy was the fixed and unal.
terablc law of God. Attorneys for the
church denied that polygnmous mar.
risges were now being solemnized, but
when questioned admitted that no record
of such marriages was kept and that
they had no actual means of knowing
whether they had been solemnized or
not. .., ..--..

From the Chronicle:

district officers repair the roads with
rye straw.
A portion of the proceedings had
at the late session Of the county
board did not appear in the published
minutes, as they were of an informal
character, yet they are of much in
terest to the citizens of Dodgeville,
and will no doubt be to the people
of the county generally. AT the
close of the session proposition
was submitted by Mr.. Rewey, the
chairman, to have grand celebra-
ton at the county seat on the 4th of
July, and among other causes for
rejoicing on that day, that the levy
ing of tax by the county board at
it's present session to make the last
payment on the old county bond
railroad Indebtedness be made a
feature of the occasion. This prop
osition met with hearty accord, and
the members generally acquiesced IN
the proposition that it would be a
fitting occasion to give expression
of Joy at the conclusion of the
struggle which has resulted in de
liverance from the oppressive taxes
that have been laid upon the people
for SO many years to obtain this
coveted freedom from the burden.
A program will doubtless be agreed
upon at an early day, and the sug-
gestion acted upon.
