monism" was not quite as popular
in Utah as formerly. 1t has never
been popular with men Of his class,
but it has not been regarded with
greater reverence by its genuine
adherents than at the present time,
this sentiment of esteem for il being
increased by the opposition which
it encounters from the opponents Of
truth, to which class Elder Pierre
evidently belongs. The dropping
away Of a few weakened members
Of the Church is no detriment but
rather benefit to the organization.
having a purifying effect. The
statement TO the effect that few peo-
pie outside of Salt Lake now belong
TO the Church is most extraordinary,
as the bulk OF n-"Mormons" re-
side in this city and Ogden.
There are many counties in
Utah, where the people are
almost entirely members Of the
Church. This falsehOOd on the part
Of Mr.. Pierre seemed to be necessary
in order to exaggerate the lsbors Of
the refined young ladies to whom he
had reference. He states correctly,
however, that the only hope, slender
as it may be, OF the alleged reformers
lies in the children, people OF ma
ture age having too much Judgment
and experience to be induced 10 re-
pudIste something substantial and
valuable for comparative chimera.
The alleged absence Of educa-
tiOnal facilities in this Territory is
utterly untrue, there being a COM
mon school system embracing the
whole Of Utah, besides University
and numerous parochial education
nj institutions. The statement about
parents being opposed to the educa-
ton Of their children il 4 base and
inexcusable Islander, the direct OPP
pOsite being the case. Any person
who cares to ascertain the educa-
tional status Of the people Of Utah,
who are Overwhelmingly "Mor-
mUn,' can do So by referring to
statistics on the subject. This Ter
ritory is in advance of all the other
Territories, and a majority of the
States in the matter Of education.
The speaker made reference TO
Teachers visiting the people on every
block. His intention was evidently
to convey the idea that these re-
ligious teachers were the only ones
who instructed the people. True,
their duty is TO see that no wicked
ness or i'll feeling exists in the
church, and TO instruct its members
in their duties, because they are not
teachers Of ordinary secular edu-
cation, being purely ecclesiastical
officers, who have no connection
with the school system.
The "Mormons''-who are the
pioneers and settlers Of this Rocky
Mountain region-in their labor Of
redeeminy the wilderness, have, in
founding nearly every town, made
it one of the first objects to erect a
schOolhouse, thus showing a re-
markable disposition, under trying
circumstances, TO give education
the first place in the development
OF their civilization.
Our correspondent placed a proper
estimate upon the INSCRIPTIONS

CLEVELAND, June ia passen-

by "A switch engine at Newburg. n

Later reports sag that nobody was
killed, hut twelve or thirteen in
jured, some seriously. The freight
train plowed through the passenger
train a; a crossing.
The accident was caused 10y a
misunderstanding rs 10 the signals.
The engineers Of both trains thought
the signal was set for them 10
60 ahead. The result was that
the passenger train got part Of the
way over the crossing when the
freight dashed into il, wreusing
one car. 10 is almost miraculous
that no lives were lost. 1t Is not
believed that any Of the wounded
will die.

Of women's home missions, at (which
two hundred persons were present.

The writer, however, made one
mistake. Ii was a fault Of omission,
He should have mentioned the fact
that there is strong probability OF

that when It becomes a law, the
people Of Utah, 'Mormon" and
Gentle, win be shorn, almost en-
tirely, Of the power OF local self
government and the commonest
rights Of American citizenship.
This would no Doubt form 4 great
inducement to prospective settlers
in uIis Territory. If they under

ing that there is much diphtheria IN
town, I want to tell you, for publication
if you 20 desire, my experience with
pineapple in two cases of dreadfully Ill
cerated sorethroat. I read, not so long
ago, that a gentleman from the North,
but who is now living South, had two
children dying with diphtheria, when
an old Negro told him to use pineapple
juice which he did with the happiest
results. During the past month, two
of my daughters have had liberated
threats, n being especially bad. /
thought of the pleasant remedy I have
mentioned. Tried to procure the fresh
fruit, failing in that, I bought a can of
it andhad the children to eat the pulp,
drink the juice and also gargle with it
and, I assure you, the result was very
satisfactory think the fresh fruit

who VIII Deny This

The Alexandria Town Talk tells the
following interesting little narrative
which so far no lottery newspaper or
advocate has been able to contradict.
The natural conclusion then is that it is
the truth 'Some years ago, perhaps
six, a.hotel arose in Baton Rouge, that
feasted the honorable members of the
Legislature on the sumptuous fare and
slept them in richly furnished rooms,
and on the most luxurious beds, with
railroad tickets and Havana cigars,
and ivory chips at the Office, all with
out money and without price. The
honorable members who availed them
selves of this hotel WeTe overwhelmed
with gratitude when they discovered
that it was the munifcence of their
friend. the Lottery Company, and have
ever since given their votes united in a
solid phalanx in protecting the Lottery
Company on its net annual revenue of
$13,O0O,O 900 from being disturbed by
ungrateful legislation"
