Exodus of Dunkers.

A great exodus OF Dunkers is taking place.
Thousands Of members are leaving the long
established bunker settlements in Virginia,
West Virginia, Tennessee, Pennsylvania, In
diana and Ohio. They are going to the far
northwest, to North Dakota, where there is
lots of room for them.
This movement is one of the largest that
has been seen in this country for years. Long
trains, the cars filed with Dunkers and their
goods, have been on the move during the
past week or two, and they will soon be set
tied in that great state, which is much in need
Of Just such inhabitants.
Beoause the old settlements had become
crowded is the reason for this hegira. When
land becomes valuable and scarce and the
Bunker can see no prospect for his many
children, then he moves. The present exo-
dus. which is the second within the last
three years, was arranged for long in advance
by the elders and bishops of the church.
They went out as investigators and picked out
that part of the state known as the Devil S
Lake country and the Red River valley.
Six counties were selected for settlement,
and then the word was passed around in the
old colonies that chosen land had been
found. 1t needed only the word of the
church leaders to convince the brethren that
the move would be a good one in the end.
The promise of plenty of land. to be bought
of the government at very moderate prices,
was sufficient for the bunker, whose fondest
earthly hope is to own a big farm, on which
he may build himself substanti al and com
Portable home, with big, ample barns, and to
collect around him on other farms his sons
and daughters who have grown qp and mar

Hard Pushed.

Some United States Senator, said to be a
Democrat, is represented in an interview as
finding fault with the Democrats in Congress
for lack of proper leadership, and in simply
Directing to Republican propositions and OIL
fering nothing for the general good OF the
country.
That Senator has been absent from the SEES
sions of the Senate, or is too dull to under
stand what has been going on. The Demo-
Gratis have opposed and prevented the re-en-
actment, practically, of the Mckinley act
they have favored bond issue to retire the
ereenbaek and other 'iendiess chain" notes,
as proposed by Mr.. Cleveland, and they have
succeeded in protecting the treasury against
some of the wastefulness of the Republican
party. A paper that interviews man as
deaf. dumb and blind as that Senator appear
to be is hard pushed for something to publish

Against Prescription.

It was in Maryland that religious liberty
was first proclaimed on this continent. and
that sentiment is as strong today as ever. Mr..
German several weeks ago, in the course OF
a speech in the United States Senate, reported
at the time in part in the ADVOCATE, spoke
strongly against religious intolerance, and re-
Gently Senator Gibson made a very able speech
against further restriction of immigration,
stating that at the back of this latest move
ment was the American Protective Associ-

dent today is foreign-born citizen and I'M
