1t IS reported that a number of Mormon
missionaries will commence preaching
their abominable doctrine in this county
IN short time. If this should prove true
it will be an insult to the good sense OF the
civilization and common decency of our
people, and while we favor the larges' ,
possible religious liberty and freedom,
we do hope that the boys will get ready
for these internal monsters. Stale eggs,
dead cats and other ammunition of like
kind, are cheap, and it should not be at
all difficult to lay in "deadoodles' OF It,
Let these beastly dogs-we beg the dogs
pardon know that we are decent people
in old Shenandoah, and that we know
how to give a warm, yes, red hot re-
ceptiou to such filthy scum. Let
them know that we respect above all
things the Christian religion, and almost
worship the purity of true womanhood.

Rain has been falling, of and on, IN
considerable quantity, and, with the
warm weather, is making our fair conn
try look very beautiful and spring like.
The wheat is far in advance of its usual
condition at this time of the year. and its
vigorous and rapid growth is beginning
to cause some apprehensiOns of its lodg-
ing. OF falling before it will be fully filled
and matured. Some of our farmers have
been grazing their young cattle on the
rankest fields, claiming that this vii
keep back a too rank and rapid growth
and stiffen the straw.

Some people agree with THE SUNS
opinions about men and things, and some
people don't but everybody likes to get

dull and never afraid to speak its mind.
Democrats know that for twenty years
THE Sun has fought in the front line for
Democratic principles, meyer wavering or
weakening in its loyalty to the true IN
terests of the party it serves with fearless
intelligence and disinterested ylgor. AT
times opinions have differed as to the
best means of accomplishing the common
purpose ; it is not THE SUNS fault fit has
seen further into the milestone.
Eighteen hundred and ninety is the
year that will probably determine the re-
suit OF the Presidential election of lcJ2,
and perhaps the fortunes of the Democ.
racy for the rest of the century. Victory
in 1892 is the best time to start out in
