The stock Released,

CHEYENNE, Wyo., Aug n.-Judgs Scott
has decided to accept bail from the stock
men, for tho reason that Sheriff Kelly re-
fused to pay the expenses Of longer holding
them. Judge Scott decided that they
should be bailed in $4,000 each for their
appearance on the END. the time set for
the trial to commence. A bond was pre-
pared which each prisoner signed separately
in tho sum of $4,000, which amounts vir-
tually to allowing them to go on their own
reeognizance. This was a great relief 10 all
parties and was particularly gratifying to
the stockmen, ~ II ends the few months

STOCK RATES REDUCED.
A Cut Declared by the Northern Pacific of
Two and u Half Per Cent.

A Cut Declared by the Northern Pacific of
Two and u Half Per Cent.
ST. PAUL, Aug. 1l.-[Speoisl. THE
Northern Pacific has declared reduction
of about two and half per cent on stock
rates from Montana and the Dakotas to
Chicago. This 10 the first reduction made
on this traffic for two years. 1t has been
necessitatsd by the compstition of the
Fremont & Elkhorn road. which has pens-
trated into the southern part of Montana
and into Wyoming, and manifested q dis
position to cut out all tho cattle traffic
from that territory. The Northern
Pacific has apparently regarded the
cattle transport trade from Montana and
tho Dakotas az its peculiar perquisite for
some years, and has no intention of being
summarily cut out by any now railroad.
Tho cattle-carrying business reaches an
enormous figure every season. and the re-
duction declared by the Northern Pacific
will represent loss to the company of
several thousands of dollars for this season
alone. But il is thoroughly consistent with
tho principle upon which the Northern
Paoi6c does business, as explained by Mr..
Hannaford.
"When the Northern Pacific IL in the
field for any particular business 1t proposes
that its rates shall be a. low a. those of any
competing lins even il it has to place its
affairs in the hands of receiver"
There Is no immediate danger, however,
of the Northern Pacific going into bank
ruptoy on account of the cattle business, as
even with the reduction twill make large
profit. The Great Northern ia apparently
NOT competing for this business at all. Al
least II has not shown any disposition to
reduce ratcs even to the basis of the North
arm Pacific

MIssoULA. Aug. 11.-[Special. 1T is re-
ported from Grantsdale, in the Bitter Root
valley, that Alex. Allen shot and killed Joe
PanRborn near that place. The coroner
and an embalmer have been sent for. The
trouble is supposed to have been over tho
ownership to plat of land a few miles
from that town. Some who are acquainted
with the circumstances of the trouble are
of the opinion that Allen was molested and
the shooting justitlable. The details are
not now attainable.

to the money-changers at the begin
ming OF the Christian era, would he
not be new if upon the earth?
If the character and business OF
the oney-changers have been cor
rectly drawn, was not their expul-
sion from the temple demanded by
every element of the moral law and
every attribute of justice?
Did not their extortions forever
brand them as thieves and robbers ?
And il they were not expelled for
extortion, what were they expelled
for?
They had made the temple of God
a den of thieves. How had they
done it? Nobody but money-chan-
gers were turned out. These we
have briefly portrayed as they ap-
pear in the annals of the past.
Is history repeating itself?
Are money-changers and their
satellites to-day defling the temples
of religion?
Are there any den Of thieves in
christendom?
Is it true in our time, as it was
eighteen hundred years ago, that
the love of money is the root of all
evil?
Is it easier for rich men to enter
heaven in these ''last tines than it
was when Christ opened up the
way?
Is it not true, rather fearfully true,
that the age of the Gentiles draws to
a close !?
Is not the prophetic warning as to
"perilous times" now actualizing be-
fore our eyes?
Is it not true that the great "apos-
tasy" is now taking possession of the
world with the hands of the Internal
superhuman
The Anti-Christ: ''Let no man
deceive you by any means; for the
day of Christ shall not come except
there come falling away (apostasia)
first, and that man Of Sin be revealed,
the Son of Perdition." 2 Thes. ii, 8,
Are not the premonitory throes
now felt that shall introduce the
baptism of fire, from which shall
spring the third and last dispense
tion-the Messianic age?

Christ and the Money Changers.
BY JESSE HARPER.

A close inspection of modern mon
ey-changers will prove that they are
filling the cup of iniquity fuller than
did their prototypes Of antiquity.
The instances given in the Classics
of the extent to which they carried
their system of spoliation is supris-
ing beyond measure.
Becke'S "Trapezet@":
81 have purchased, said the first,
from this man here slave, for two
minare. By reference to my count
book, find there must be seven hun
dred drachme lying with you in my
name. Pay the man his money"
The 'trapezet@" again looked in his
book. "In the MAN, said he, "you
are right in your calculations, except
that you forgot the agio on three
hundred and fifty Eginetau drachma
which | paid to Paseas for the ivory
you bought. This the man could not
dispute the two mime were paid and
the man went away" B. 60.
And as to their rascality in book
keeping, the moderns as those of an
tiquity, are Identical.
II did not know" said he, "that
Sosthens had so large claim upon
me. Has he forgotten that have
had to discharge eight hundred
drachma for him to the Heraciote.
Look here at my book. What stands
there? Sosthens, son of Phrynon, of
Syracuse, has deposited two talents.
Out of these, eight hundred drach-
mae to be paid to Phrynon, the Her
saclote, who will be introduced by
Epecrotes, the Priam. You see
there remain but four hundred
drachme." B. 70.
He disputed the account of the
depositor, and had "doctored" his
books; but the creditor had outside
proof, and threatened the money
changer. A scene. Lyon deposit
tor interrupted Cesphon at this juno
ture, saying:

"Now, we stand here today bound
together by these railroad bands
reaching into every nook and corner
of our country. Don't you see that
the God of us all allowed that war to
come because by it alone could be
wiped out that institution which made
us enemies. Don't you see further
more that these grand railroad sys-
TENS, covering these vast prairies,
bridging these immense rivers, climb
ing over the high mountains from
ocean to ocean, never could have been
constructed by individual enterprise?
Corporate power and money was
needed to do it, and while the day
has come to say to them, Stay thy
might these lines have come to CIV
ilize you, and in Gods goodness and
wisdom He provided these railroads
to bind us together from Oregon to
Florida.
wasn't that war intended to give
us common money, the greenback?
The rag baby you just heard sung,
and the delight Of the Kansas heart.
Yet how Georgia does want some of
it. And now, bound together by
these railroads, already intermingling
day by day so grandly, on occasions
like this, by the thousands, as we look
into each others faces we see we are
identically the same people only sep
arated by prejudice. Don't you see
that the day has come when we can
have union on every hand, and the
great God who has made you and
has made me has reserved this day
of glory and revealed it in our time.
He has given us the grandest oppor-
tunity to make an exhalted history.
Let us then place ourselves upon the
high plane of Christian civilization
and make this country the light of
the world for the salvation of liberty
and freemen, and the elevation of
man to the highest pinnacle of glory.

those trying hours of the war. If [
could do and dare and shout with

If l could that night in the deep silence
of the midnight hours alone at the
camp fire sit down and see as plainly
that night as I can see your faces here
where God himself interposed with
mighty power to keep us from the
fruits of that victory. If could be
true then, you ought to be true now.
Who else is going to do his part ?
