students, but by talent outside the
University. These recitals will
be announced from time to time.
President Blanton and Profess

KENDRICK FLOOD.

Recent heavy rains and snow
thaw caused a disastrous flood
at Kendrick, Latah county, this
State. The loss of property is
estimated at $1oo,oco. The dam
age to the railroad is enormous.
We take the following from the
Moscow Mirror of 10Th inst:
"The heavy rains which COM
menced falling Wednesday night
Of last week continued until Fri
day night and resulted in one of
the worst disasters which has ever
befell the Potlatch country. The
heavy rain melted the snow on
the mountains at the headwaters
of the Potlatch and tributaries,
swelling all the streams to raging
torrents; the vast quantity of wa
Ter swelled the Potlatch until the
water reached from bluff to bluff
and the little city of Kendrick
was almost swept away, and three
children were drowned and one
man is missing.
The flood would probably not
have played such fearful havoc to
Kendrick had it not been for the
recent railroad wreck; the rails
which were thrown into the
stream at that time were not re-
moved and the drift wood piled
up against the obstruction until
the current of the stream was di~
verified against the railroad en-
bankment which gave way,
changing the current of the stream
down the main street. Within a
few minutes the waters rose sew
eral feet flooding residences and
business houses and carried away
a number of small buildings and
four residences with all their con-
tents.
When the food broke the in =
habitants sought places of safety
on the bluffs, by wading and
swimming as best they could to
higher ground. Chas. Hamlin
attempted to remove his family to
the bluff in a hack but while go
ing up main street lot of cord
wood and other debris came down
and striking the horses frightened
them and they turned, upsetting
the hack and throwing the occu-
pants into the water. The three
little Hamlin girls were carried
away and drowned. Mrs. Hamlin
was dragged out of the water in a
half-drowned condition by two
men some distance below where
the accident happened, while the
driver was stunned by striking
the wood and rendered uncon-
scious; he floated with the cur
rent and in some way lodged in
an upturned building aud was
rescued the next morning. An
old man named Blanchard was
missing and at last accounts had
not been found. A number of
persons had narrow escapes. Fif-
teen persons were carried out of
one building by a man OF horse
back"

Idaho, we find this; "But where
from comes all this friendship,
traditional and ctherwises Was
il born Of the effortsiof the Re.
publican party 70 completely an
initiate a most sacred plank in
tie Mormon code of religious
principles?" That is significant
sentence. PLAINLY spoken, it
means that the Republican party
is guilty Of most serious crime
against the Mormon church, and
that the offense consists in an eff
fort, made by the Republican
party, to suppress the practice Of
polygany, which, in the same
sentence, is described as "m2st
bitter persecution" In its full
sense, the article from which the
foregoing is taken em2hatically
proclaims, that the suppression OF
polygamy was the act Of the Re-
publican party; that it was a
criminal act; that it was an act of
religious persecution; and the in
timation is that the Mormon peo-
pie ought to revenge themselves
on the Republican party for its
criminal suppression of a "most
sacred plank in the Mormon code
Of religions PRINCIPLES"
We quote the foregoing in or
der simply to make an explana-
ton. 1t was not uttered by a
Mormon editor, but by a Gentle
editor who is running a Demo-
cratic paper in a Mormon COM
munity. The object of it was no
doubt to give expression TO a
supposed Mormon sentiment of
resentment. The idea obtains
with certain classes of men that
the Mormons people feel that
they were forced by one or the
other of the political parties to
abandon a cherished practice and,
il It can be shown which party
did the forcing, the Mormons will
revenge themselves upon that
party. We think this does the
Mormons grave injustice. In
the first place, they know very
well that both parties have al
ways occupied substantially the
same position with respect to pc -
lygamy; and, in the second place,
they know that the abandonment
of polygamy was in obedience to
an authorized and approved reve-
lation, coming to them as COM
mandment from God. The Nor
mon church no longer teaches,
encourages or advises plural mar
riages, and it refuses 10 assume
any responsibility for those who
practice unlawful cohabitation.
We believe it is ungenerous and
unjust to picture them as insin =
cere in the acceptance of what
they profess to regard as divine
revelation. The whole fabric of
the church rests upon revelations
no more authoritative than the
one given to President Woodruff
respecting the abandonment of
g. polygamy. If the abandonment
of polygamy was not in conse-
quence of a decree of heaven,
then, a serious doubt rests upon
all Mormon revelation. If the
revelation to abandon polygamy
came from God, then He and He
alone is responsible, unless we
argue that He was forced by one
of the political parties. This
would be the height of ahsurdity.
We think it is due to the Nor
mon people to place their piety
on higher level than to picture
them as harboring feelings of re-
