MORMons IN CANADA.
Spread of the Sect Is Alarming Bo-
miuiou officials.


miniou Officials.
Canada is becoming seriously alarmed
at the rapid spread Of Mormonism in
the northwest The Mormons themselves
claim to be increasing in the Dominion at
the rate of thousands per year, and, ac-
cording to a Quebec correspondent, assert
that within the last year they have
brought in over 1000 emigrauts frosn
Utah alone.
If this is continued Canadian pubic
men fear that they will shortly control
large sections of the country. As the
bulk of the people in southern Alberta
have come from Utah, and as the Nor
mons have so thorough an organization.
it is dawning upon the country that they
may become 4 serious menace to the
State, especially as there is a grave sus-
picion among their Gentle neighbors that
polygamy is practiced secretly by these
Canadian Mormons.
Many of the leading elders in Alberta
assert that p0lygamy is one of the 'hief
privileges OF the communion, and it is
asserted that in some cases the privi-
lege has been held out as bait to would
be adherents of the baser sort.
Outside of Alberta and the other north
west provinces of Canada the Mormons
claim to have no fewer than 10000 mem
bers in the province of Ontario. The
leaders or 'evangelists" of the church en-
deaycr to obtain a footing in new eenters
by Z ing as ministers Of the gospel"
The. profess at first to follow Christ and
the apostles very closely and keep the
peculiar doctrines of the Mormon church
very much in the background until they
gain the confidence of their converts.

1t is claimed that the sudden shut
down of the twelve mills of the Ameri-

nearly ten thousand workmen out of en-
ployment. The mills affected are at Pitts
burg, Cleveland. Joliet, H.. Newcastle,
Pa. Anderson, Ind, and Waukegan and
DE kalb, ILL., These mills have a capac
ity of between 5000 and 1000 tons of
manufactured product a day. and their
shutting down during what was believed
to be period of great activity and profit
making came as a surprise to people gen
orally.
The cause of he shutdown is given by
John W. Gates. chat nan of the board OF
directors OF the con pany, as slack bust
ness and over-produetion. The slack bus
mess. it is explained, Is brought about
by decline in the building trades owing
