The NORM
(Eor Tha Messenger)

The Mormons are diligently at work
in Pender county. For nearly a year
they have been laundering their doc
trine in the Harrison's Greek and
Hamstead settlements. They seem
possessed Of a good deal Of that
charming essential known to scholars
as ~suaviter in modo, and their efforts
have not been without considerable
encouragement. They are persistent
in promulgating the doctrine that ex-
Founders Of the Gospel should not be
paid for their services and find a ready
endorsement OF this idea among the
ignorant and INDECENT
At the places named they have been
greeted by large congregations. which
have been both respectful n atten-
tive.
This week Mrs. Garrison, the widow
Of the late Don Garrison. of Harri-
sons Creek, was baptized by them
and became a member of tie Mormon
church. For more than twenty years
Mrs. Garrison has been a member Of
the Methodist church.
These Mormon elders go in pairs and
whenever one is seen the other is sure
20 be near at hand.
It has lately been given out by the
elders working in the sections referred
to that they intend to found several
churches in these parts Of the moral
vineyard. This field Of Christian work
has been covered by the Methodists
only and preaching by their circuit
riders takes place once a month. While
the Methodist circuit rider is looking
after his flock in some other part Of
his fold the Mormon elder is getting in
his work
These followers of Joseph Smith and
Brigham Young will light in a country
neighborhood ano work like beavers
for two or three weeks, go to some
| other inviting field, do the same thing,
and in the course of two or three
| months return to the scene Of their
first labors to ascertain what proper
ton of the seed sown has terminated
n needs tillage.
In the Hamstead section is a large
well-built and comfortable Presbyter-
ian church edifice erected about TWEEN
efforts of the late Dougald Mcmillan,
Esq, a Christian gentleman of the old
| school,, whose influence for the spread
of the Gospel was felt and appreciated
not only in his immediate neighbor-
hood, but throughout a broad section
Of country. A church organization
| was effected and regular services had.
Since his death. his work and influence
have been sorely missed, and for sew
eral years no periodical worship has
taken place at this church. Lately,
however, arrangements for regular
| worship have been made and once a
month services are now held there.
Near Hamstead also the Methodists
have preaching once a month The
| Christian labors referred to, however
have not swept the field m the Nor
mons are gathering in many of those
who have not been covered by the
aegis of the Presbyterians and Metho-
| distS.

Of the large delegation to attend
the reunion from distant cities, the
largest is expected to come from
Louisville. There Will be fully 1900
from that city, and they will have
headquarters established here, where
a bureau of information will be sta
toned, and the visitors will have no
difficulty in going about the city and
to the many points of interest. Cap
tain Mariner and a committee of five
from Louisville were here Monday
making the arrangements for the del
egation from the Kentucky City, and
they spoke enthusiastically Of what
the Louisville people were going to
do in Atlanta during the reunion. He
said they would take the Gate City
and would temporarily turn it into
a Louisville. Three hundred mem
bers of Camp Pastor VIII come III 4
body, and accompanying these will be
a great number of visitors. Many
sons of veterans and daughters of the
Confederacy will attend. The local
chapters of these organizations will
come with almost their entire mem
bership. They will bring with them
a glee club with Is trained voices and
also a brass Land.
Captain Mariner said that the
Louisville delegation would come here
with an invitation to the Confederate
veterans to hold the next reunion in
that city.-Atlanta Constitution.

HOME FOR A FEW DAYS
Lieutenant Cowan of Light Infantry
Gin the Cfty-RepOTts the boys An
uxious for Active Service.

Lieutenant r. H. Cowan, of Com
pany K, Wilmington Light Infantry
Second Regiment Of North Carolina
volunteers, arrived in the city from
Raleigh yesterday. He was a most
welcome visitor, as was vince by the
many hand shakes" he participated
joyously in. This is his first visit
home since he went to the mobiliza-
ton camp, but it will only be for
a couple of days, as he returns to-
morrow afternoon.
The lieutenant is now very swarthy
of complexion, caused by exposure to
the sun which his duties demand, and
several pounds has been added to his
weight. In fact he is looking the per-
feet picture of health.
In conversation with a Messenger
representative he. said the boys are
all anxious (true North Carolina sons)
for active service, but as to where
they will be sent is purely a matter
of speculation. He sueaks glow
ingly of Colonel Burgwyn, and the
high estimation in which he and his
staff are held by the Light Infantry
All our boys, he reports, are getting
along nicely, and loaded him down
with messages for their beloved Will
mington people.

An Crgument Against a Great Regular
AfmV

The war has developed abundant
reasons why there should be q thor
ough reorganization of our volunteer
national guard, So that, in case of a
sudden call, 200, 900 men, or more, may
be at once available, drilled, armed,
and thoroughly eQuipped-ready to go
aboard cars, or vessels for any home
rendezvous or any expedition abroad,
at a days notice. The equipment,
drilling and preparation of such a
force during the past two years would
have the cost the government less
than it has expended on a like num-
Der of raw Or half-prepared recruits
in the past two months.
But no reason whatever has yet
been revealed for the increase of our
regular army to 100, 900 or $50, 600 men,
now being advocated in various quar-
terS. If the organization Of our ma
tional guard is made what it should
be, and supported by adequate appro-
priations, the enlargement of our reg
liz force to the extent proposed by
General Miles a few months ago will
be amply sufficient for inland garri-
son and coast defence duty within the
present limits of the United States.
That proposition was hat in time of
peace our regular establishment
should consist of one soldier to every
1000 inhabitants, and in time of war
Of n soldier to every 1000 inhabi-
tants. On a peace footing this would
give us about $1,000 men, and on a war
footing 1900. 1t has been substan-
TALLY adopted in the recent legislation
of congress, and there is as vet no
call for any further enlargement.-St.
Paul Pioneer Press.

NOW A
Rapid Rise of a Former Wilmington
ian who Left Here a Few Years Ago
BEFORE the Mast.

Several years ago there left this city a
robust young man of 35 years as a sail
or before the mast on a trading vessel.
The other day this same young man
left San Francisco in command of the
steamer Valencia, conveying soldiers
and transports to the Philippines. Nc
Rec Lane is the name Of the young
man whose energy and efficiency
marked him for such a rapid rise in
office.
He is we'll known in this city, being
a nephew of our esteemed townsman,
DR.. w. w. Lane, and this news of his
promotion will be hailed with delight
by his friends. A man must possess
considerable merit to raise himself in
a few years from the position of a or
binary seaman before the mast to the
rank of master Of one of Uncle Sans
transport ships, which is a position Of
trust.

FREIGHT RATES RE DUCED
The Wilmington Tariff Association
Through its Efforts Before the Rail-
Commission Lie Wer Rates on
Molasses, Meal and Cotton Piece

Molasses, Meal and Cotton Piece
Goods.
At the sitting Of the NORTH Carolina
railway commission at Raleigh on the
18th instant, Mr.. James Kyle, manager
of the Wilmington Tariff Association,
appeared before that body and made
argument in favor of the petitions Of
the association, praying for lower
rates from Wilmington on molasses,
meal in bags, and cotton piece goods.
The commission granted the petition
in all these cases.
We learn that these reductions put
Wilmington on equitable competing
grounds with rates current in other
states, and the commission in grant
ing the reductions have done the peo-
pie of North Carolina but simple JUS
tice. Our merchants suffered from the
fact that the practice of the railroads
has been to charge a much higher rate
on meal in bags than in boxes and
without any valid reason for doing so,
as our merchants contend. 1t is the
small dealer who vas forced to buy in
less than box quantities and the relief
gained by the association will be of
special advantage to him.

what was seen so interestingly.
