ALGER MUCHsPLEAsED.


Washington, December 90. Secretary
Alger came to the war department. almost
directly on his return to Washington.
He expressed himself as highly pleased
with the reception accorded the Presi-
Dental party at every point in the south
and said what particularly impressed
him WAS the absolute SINCERITY of the
people in their welcome Of the President.
It was honest, straightforward and such
as could come only from loyal, loving
kinsmen.
The secretary looked into the conditions
among the United States troops quartered
in the Southern towns and cities along
the line Of the trip. Generally speaking
he found these conditions admirable and
the men in splendid condition. He was
especially gratifed at the universal re-
ports testifying TO the excellent conduct
Of the soldiers. The secretary reports
that Gen. Brooke suffers from nothing
more serious than q cold. which will not
prevent his departure for Cuba towards
the end of the month.

WARMED AGAINST MoEMoNs.
Grandson of Brigham Young Addresses
Women's Board of Missions.

New York, December, 20.--About 200
persons attended the meeting of the
Woman's Board of home missions of the
Presbyterian church in this city today.
The object of the meeting was to inaugu-
rate an aggressive campaign to prevent
the seating of Brigham Il. Roberts, an
avowed polygamist as representative from
Utah in the 56th Congress. The Rev. D.
Stuart Dodge, secretary of the Woman
hoard, opened the meeting and the Rev.
VIM. r. Campbell of Salt Lake city, for
several years a Presbyterian missionary
in Utah, introduced Eugene Young,
grandson of Brigham Young, and Mrs.
Fannie Stenhouse.
Mr.. Campbell explained that Mr.. Young
was born in Utah and had to leave that
country because of his stermination to
speak his mind freely IN political matters
without the dictation of the Mormon
church. Mr.. Young was received with
great applause. He said among other
things: 'sThere seems to be disposition
in the East, Particularly among the
politicians, even among the churches TO
treat the revival of the Mormon issue as a
minor matter. There is an inclination to
view the election TO Congress of b. H..
Roberts--a three or four ply polygamists
Stlil lltluB III Euty e5eAOAy OIL hhnfO&0,
able outcome of old conditions in Utah
and a mere question of personal morality.
Some day they will see as those who know
Mormon ambition see now, that
Mr.. Roberts is mere Instrument, the
representative OF mighty forces. They
will learn that through his election a
people three hundred thousand strong
have turned from American liberty and
American morality. and have taken the
initial step toward the establishment of a
hierarchy foreign to our institutions and
our social laws, in the midst of our re-
public.
"Mr. Roberts has proved on more than
one occasion that tine word Of the Mormon
leaders is his law and that he is willing.
to sacrifice his American liberty to carry
out the demands of the church superiors
'sIf Mr.. Roberts was merely a common
law breaker, frowned upon by his own
people. it would be wasting time to make
any effort against him. But, if, In drag
ging polyaamy into the House of Repre-
sentatives he is representing the defiant
sentiment of the whole Mormon people,
then the people must not rest until Con-
gress has cast him out as a warning to all
covenant breakers and all polygamists =

their stomaohs are out of gear; weary
languid, faded out women owe their con-

When nearly every person you meet IS
afflicted with weak digestion 1t is nou
surprising that nearly every secret patent

cure for dyspepsia, as well as a score OF
other troubles, when in fact, as LII.
Werthier says, there is but one genuine
dyspepsia cure which is perfectly safe ana
reliable, and moreover, this remedy is NOT
a patent medicine. but it is "a scientific
combination OF pure pepsin (free from
animal mat6er), vegetable essences, fruiJ
salts and bismuth. 1t is sold by drug
gists under name of Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets. No extravaganza claims are made
for them, but for indigestion or any stom-

FILIPINOS HAVING THEIR OWN
WAY,

Manila, November IL. via San Francis
co, Decemb Der 20.-It is stated on reliable
authority that the rebels are imposing
burdens on commerce within the very
walls of Manila.
For instance, per capita tax is levied
upon every passenger who is foolish
enough to accede to the demands, upon
the ferry across the bay to Csvite. lhen
again COLLECTORS stand at the gates of all
the large factories on pay day and mulot
the employees according to their salaries
as they leave.
OF course this only affects the Filipinos,
but it tends to show that the rebels can
and are doing pretty much as they like
in spite of the authorities.
