BACK IN THE MIRE,

A few days ago we were told In the
press dispatches that three Mormon mis-
sionaries were taken from the home Of
man. whose wife they were repeatedly
INSISTING with view to her conversion
In one OF the Southern States. and carried
away by band OF citizens as II TO be
lynched. It was afterward understood that
the purpose was simply to escort them
from the country with a warning
The dispatches in Sundays Post re-
counted an assault near sweetwater, Ten
nessee. by the citizens, with over-ripe eggs,
upon two of the Latter Day Saints elders
who were vigorously prosecuting mission
AIRY work In that region. Other instances
como to light from time to time OF Mormon
missionary activity In the Southern and
Middle States.
In this connection It may be interesting
TO refer to the testimony OF Assistant Com
missioner OF Immigration Mcsweeny. at
New York. recently before the United
States industrial commission in Its In
auiry into the workings Of the immigra-
tion law. Mr.. Mcsweeny made the sIgniA-
cant statement that Of the immigrants

Mormon elders. when We know that the
development of the State is demanding
a larger male population?
There can be only one answer--this
hunt for women. always among the lowly
and ignorant, now in progress through
out this country and Europe. by the
Mormon missionaries is a means to the
continuance and perpetuation OF polygamy.
Two or three notable illustrations have
occurred lately In which by their own
admissions of guilt, the leaders from the
president down, are still shown to be prac
ticing polygamy. II was made a covenant
between the Mormons OF Utah and the
United States government and put In the
Utah constitution before the Territorys
admission into the Union, that polygamy
should be n crime. 1t was predicted at the
time that when their criminal code got into
their own hands the violation of the anti
polygamy provisions would be "wnked at
by the Mormons or enforced only In the
most harmless way. II even enforced. We
saw the other day. where the wealthy
head of the church who plead guilty to
living with more than one wife was fined
only 500, confirmation OF this fear.
Female suffrage was adopted In Utah
in order to give the Mormons overwhelm-
ing control OF the State. And now that
1t is a State 1t must remain so perman-
emily. Unless amendments to the Federal
constitution can so reach the evil that
Federal courts can get jurisdiction, there
appears to be no way to stop this dis
grace to the Union except by public op.n-
ion as exhibited in Georgia and Tonnes
see, and the refusal to allow unmarried
female converts to Mormonism to come
into the country. Men who are suspected
Of practicing polygamy should not be ad-
mitted to congress and the corrupt set
should be ostracised in every way pos
sible.
All indications as we'll as the instances
cited show that the rulers OF the Mormon
church have thrown off the mask of re-
form and are again going back to their
plural wives system with all the boldness
and righteousness of old

THE COTTON WILL INDUSTRY.

The New Wleans Picayune tells us that
the Boston Evening Transcript is not
pleased with the showing made by Plea
yune staff correspondent who recently
travelled through New England describing
the cotton mill industry there and pointing
out how that industry has enriched the
New England States.
1t seems, however, that the Transcript
is not displeased because New England
has been slandered or her great Industry
misrepresented. but purely through a phil
anthropic apprehension that tho capital
lists OF the South might be led by the Plea
yune staff correspondent into investments
in the cotton industry in the South that
would lose them much money. While the
Transcript admits, says the Picayune. that
the cotton industry has prospered, II points
out that increasing competition, the labor
problem and the constant improvements
in machinery are calculated to greatly re-
mills, and consequently, it warns pros
pective investors in Southern mills that
there SIS a dark side to the picture" The
Transcript is also apprehensi7e that the
better class of whites in the South look
down too much on labor to furnish the
necessary factory help from desirable
quarter!
This review by the Boston paper looks
like a special plea to the South to stor
building cotton mills in competition with
the New England mills and allow the latter
to enjoy monopoly OF the industry-the
dark side OF the picture" and all else.
II is a shrewd attempt to discourage cot
ton mill building in the South--the in
dustry of all others that has filled New
England with millionaires, For since
when has the New England press become
so sollcitous for the welfare of Southern
capital and the safety of Southern in
vestments by Southern men?
What are the real facts about the cot
ton mill industry in the South? 1t is
growing rapidly in all the Southern States
Dor of the best kind from the agricultural
and middle classes in the South, whose
children have to resort to labor not al
ways OF their own choosing, and In this
It Is furnishing new and reasonably
profitable field for labor TO our boys and
girls; the mills almost without excep-
ton are running regularly. some OF them
day and night, to catch up with orders.
while the dividends are anywhere from
10 and IL to 80 and 33 per cent!
And the field is not yet half utilized.
Texas, great consumer OF cotton goods
and the greatest producer of cotton, is yet
without mills. From 20 to 80 per cent div
idends await Texas capitalists who will
put their faith in cotton mills In Texas
and who know how to run them The ''in-
creasing competition" of which the Boston
Transcript speaks that is making the mills
In New England less profitable. comes from
the prosperity OF these very mills In the
South and their steady multiplication. The
nearness to the raw material. climatic and
labor conditions give US lasting and inval-
liable advantages

Max ingEvil Profitable.

Why evil was ever permitted to
enter the world is one of the prob
lens of the ages. Though it con
tinue to puzzle philosophers TO the
end of time, there is a simple as
pect OF it which concerns each one
of us personally. The opportunity
10 choose between right and wrong
is all opportunity to be virtuous
and to grow strong in righteous
ness through the use Of the will in
the exercise Of choice. There is
no virtue in not doing wrong when
there is n.o present opportunity to
do wrong. But there is virtue in
doing right when we are tempted
to evil. A man cannot call him
self honest until he has been situa-
ted where he can steal and cheat
and lie. Froebel says, "Man must
be able to err in order TO become
good, honest, and virtuous." The
will is the man, and our molal
character is the sum Of our moral
choices. We make evil profitable
by deliberately rejecting it.-Sun-
day School Times.
