Campbell IN Office.

COLUMBUS, o., Jan. Ex-Governor
elect James b. Campbell took the oath of
Office to-day at noon. His message is
comparatively brief. He recommends
that home rule be restored to all cities as
speedily as possible, and enters into a de-
tail as to the needs Of Cincinnati. He
strongly commends the system Of ballot
reform commonly called the Australian
system, and sketches briefly the success
which it has met in other countries and
states. The argument that it would be a
hardship 10 ilhterate voters is substan-
TALLY answered. On the question OF
cheaper school books the governor says:
Popular education is the foundation Ct
freedom and prosperity. knowledge
should be furnished at the lowest possible
cost. The state builds school houses.
provides teachers and controls every
detail of education, save the furnishing of
books. Is there any sound reason why it
should not assume this function also2'
He favors the abolition of the office of
commissioner OF railroads and telegraphs,
and thinks the duties could be better per-
formed by a railroad commission, pro-
vided there be any necessity for state
supervision of railroads.

WASHINGTON, Jan. l3.-The senate
committee on territories this morning lis
tened to arguments against and in sup
port of the constitution prepared for the
proposed new state of Idaho. There
were present Bishop William Bridge OF
Utah, ex Governor Stevenson and John
ShoUpe of Idaho, and a full attendance of
the members OF the committee. Mr.. j..
II. Wilson OF this city, speaking for the
Mormons, argued against the acceptance
OF the proposed constitution which dis
franchised Mormons, and asserted that
without the Mormon residents, who will
thus be cut off from citizenship, the pop
ulation of the territory is not large
enough to warrant making a state of it.
As to the legal effect of the proposition
Mr.. Wilson argued that every good pur-
pose would be served by DISTINGUISHING
;he Mormons after they were convicted of
crime instead of DISTINGUISHING them in
advance.
Delegate Dubois of Idaho replied to
Mr.. Wilson in a long statement reciting
the history of the Mormon church and
quoting from judicial decisions in Idaho
to sustain his assertion that it was a
criminal conspiracy. He said it was nee
essary to disfranGhise Mormons in a body
in order to destroy their political power,
which keeps them together. Conviction
of bigamy or polygamY is a difficult mat
ter and when successful does not affect
the convict, Mr.. Dubois said, because six
months in the penitentiary has no effect
IN him. The only way to reach the
Mormon church, Mr.. Dubois asserted, is
to deprive it of political power and this
constitution of Idaho was adopted with
only ], 700 dissenting votes.

THE M0RM0NS.
An Official Declaration Circu.
lating in Washington.
The Question Discussed at
Length in the Senate.
Necessary to Disfranchise Them
to Destroy Their Power.

New YORK, Jan. l3.-The World
Washington dispatch says: Delegate
Game of Utah is industriorsly engaged In
distributing an official declaration" of
the Mormon church. The document is
evidently intended to pave the way for
admission of the territory. The declara
ton is signed by MILFORD Woodruff, Geo.
Q. Canon and Joseph Smith of the
presidency of the Church of Jesus
Christ of the Latter Day Saints" 10
renzo Snow, Franklin Richards, Brigham
Young, Moses Thatcher. Francis NJ. Ly
man, John Henry Smith, George Teas
dale, Heber j.. Grant, John w. Taylor,
NJ. W. Merrill, A. "a. LIND of the
Council of the Apostles and John w.
Young and Daniel ii. Wells, couusellors.
The declaration is signed to Whom 1t
may concern" but is supposed to chiefly
concern congress. The Mormon
church" it is affirmed, views the she'd
ding of blood with the utmost abhor-
renee. We regard the killing of human
beings, except in conformity with the
civil law. as capital crime, which should
be punished by shedding the blood Of the
criminal, after public trial before a legally
constituted court
Notwithstanding all stories told about
the killing OF apostates no case of this
kind has ever occurred and OF course has
never been established against the church
we represent. Hundreds of seceders
from the church have continuously resided
and now live in this territory, many of
whom have amassed considerable wealth
though bitterly hostile to the Mormon
faith and people. Even those who have
made it their business to fabricate vilest
falsehooGs and to render them plausible
by culling isolated passages from old ser
mons without an explanatory context and
have suffered no opportunity to escape
them of vilifying and blackening the
characters of the people, have remained
among those whom they have thus per
sistently illuminated until the present
day without receiving the slightest per-
sonal injury. We declare that no bishop
or other court in this church claims or
exercises the right to supercede, annul
or modify the judgement of any civil court;
that this church while offering advice for
the welfare of its members In all condi-
tons of life, and does not claim or exer.
else social or political right.
THE ballot in this territory is abso
lutely untammeled and secret. No mans
business or other secular affairs are in
vaded by the church or any OF its officers.
We declare that there is nothing in the
ceremony of endowment or in any doc
trine tenet, obligation or injunction oS
this church, either private or public,
which is hostile or intended to be hostile
to the government of the United States.
On the contrary, its members are under
the divine commandment to revere the
constitution as a heaven inspired inslru-
ment."
