HOW ERROR GAINS sw Ay.

| We publish today letter from the
Womans Board Of Home Missions Of
the Presbyterian church. 10 the House
OF Representatives at Washington, ID.
c. Also reply to the communication
from Hon Marcus A. smith, Delegate
| In Congress from the Territory Of Ari-
| zona There is no need for US TO take
up the statements made concerning the
Mormon" people, or the dlsparaging
opinions expressed by the Womans
Board, as TO the intelligence and claims
to Statehood of the people Of our neigh
boring Territory They are fully and
ably disposed Of by the delegate from
that Territory. But we draw attention
TO the fairness and good feeling exhib-
tied by that gentleman In his vigorous
but courteous response to the asser-
tions made In the Woman's appeal to
Congress.
The document signed by Mrs. Mary
f. James, president of the board, was
doubtless written In the same spirit Of
mislnformation, that peryades the vari-
Gus resolutions and recommendations
that have leen adopted by different re-
llglous societies and committees, Not
one Of them could give an intelligent
and accurate statement OF the faith
Of the Latter-day Saints or describe
their true character But Mr..
Smith, who has lived for many years as
4 neighbor 10 our people In
Arizona can testify reliably
IS to their worth, and he
appears TO have courage enough to tell
he truth about them, no matter how
this course may be. He Is
o be hOnored and commended for his
,utspoken defense OF people who are
ontinually mallgned.
With the aid Of such friends az the
Delegate from Arizona, OF whom there
re several in these United States, and
he progress of intelligence and the
Illusion OF correct information, the
ime will come when the true charac-
er of the Mormon" people will be un-
erstood In the world. and the glorious
rinciples which have been revealed
rom heaven for the elevation and re-
emptlon OF the human race, for WHICH
hey live and labor, will be promul-
ated in every nation, 10 the glory Of
.od and the benefit Of mankind.

PRESBYTERIAN AssEMBI Y.

The general assembly of the Presby'
terrain church will meet In New York
on the 18th Of this month, and some
curiosity is being manifested in the
probable action of that body in rela-
tion to revision OF the confession Of
faith.
A committee has had that matter I'M
der consideration, and various reports
OF the work of the commission have
found their way into the columns Of
the press, a Philadelphia paper says
ION high authority" that several mis-
leading reports have been made re-
gardng the changes proposed Thus,
for instance, the statement that the
number Of the elect is 80 irrevocably
fixed that 1t can neither be Increased nor
diminished Is not, we are told, taken
out Of the confession, but some explain
atory words are used in the Declare
tory aot' which is intended to inter-
pref the confession The statement as
to elect infants" still stands, but II Is
declared in the"Declaratory act" that
this means that all infants are includ.
ed in the covenant of grace.
Another point is that which refers TO
the Roman pontif. The charaeterlza-
tlon Of the pope as "the man " sin" is
modified, but strong language is new
ertheless used as to the Arrogance" OF
that dignltary.
Those acquainted with Presbyterian
affairs expect an interesting and lively
session. Some hold that the DECLARE
tory statement can be adopted at once, !
while others are OF the opinion that It |
must be submitted to the presbyterles
before II can have binding force.

RAILROAD FRANCHISES.

The resolution adopted by the Com
'nerclal club on Monday evening, APP
pears TO be all right and no doubt the
City Council viii take II into careful
confederation. The club Is composed
Of rnost Of the principal business men
Of This city, and their views are en-
titled 10 respect. They appeared, how
ever. TO be divided on the question Of
benefits 10 be derived from a union de-
pot. Some took the ground that 1t
would be better for the interests Of the
public to have two or more railway
depots than to have all the lines meet
at one central spot The meeting was
animated on this point, but was har-
monious in passing the resolution which
was finally adopted the depot question
being laid aside.
In examining the resolution closely,
we do not find anything in It which is
out OF joint with the report Of the com
mittee Of the City Council that discuss
ed this question, which is to be con-
sidered in open meeting of the council
In regular session. We think the great
body of eur citizens will concur in the
views expressed both by the CONNER
cial club and the City committee, that
no franchise should be granted that is
exclusive or hostile to the interests OF
any OF the railroad companies, present
or prospective.
The interests Of the public should be
the first consideration, and these will
be best conserved by protecting the
rights and interests OF all the railroads
that enter the city limits. An exclusive
right TO occupy a street used for rail-
road purposes, thus shutting out all
Others. does not seem TO be proper
whether We consider the interests Of the
public or the interests of the railroads.
The union depot proposition appears
at present not to be the chief object
In view, either by the railroad compa-
MES. the City Council or the CONNER
oial club. The thing to be settled now
Is the right Of way for two roads in
stead Of one, along street which Is
already used for railway purposes.
There is nothing In the resolution
adopted by the Club which discrlmln-
ates against either road and the same
may be said Of the recommendation
to be made by the City Council COM
mittee. as we understand It's purport.
Whether we shall have one union de-
pot or two or more fine substantial edl-
fees for the respective roads. seems
to be a question that still lies In the
future. In any event, Salt Lake City
should have suitable railway buildings,
adapted TO the needs Of the public and
such as will comport with the wealth
and dignity Of the railway corporations,
and with the growth and needs OF so
Important a business center as salt
Lake City.

THE GRASS CURE.

The water cure Is not the only
method employed In the Philippines
when II is considered necessary 10 ex-
tract Information from unwilling ma
tives. There is another, which General
Funston has called the grass cure"
IL Is not as barbarous as the water
cure as 1t merely aims at frightening
the people TO death as the saying Isl;
but II Is claimed for 1t that II is as ef-
fective as the other cure" General
Funston describes II in this way:
Whenever natives We're rounded up
and they refused TO dlyulge information
they were known 10 possess they were
formed In line. When they persisted in
declining 20 repent and confess they
were told that the rules OF warfare Were
rigid and that they must die.
Then they had to draw lots and the
native who drew the black ball was
taken out into the tall grass and told
10 prepare for death. The soldiers were
drawn up In a regular squad, with their
guns pointing at the victim, and at HIS
feet IN the tall grass there was a sol.
der who lay Hat on his face, SO that
he was not seen.
THE order 10 fire was given. the SOL
diers shot over the head OF the native
and az the same instant the hidden
soldier pulled az his legs and down he
tumbled. II impressed the natives for
they thought that the man was shot
They didn't know that he was unhurt
After three or four sacrifices mad been
made In this manner the natives eener-
ally fell on their knees and told all |
they knew"
Whether there are other "cures" is
not stated. Can It possible be that the
.obasco sauce Cure" which Is said to
nave been practiced in military schools
It home Is disregarded in the field as
90 lenient for satisfactory effects?

The wholesale violation of the ordln-

among the respectable people of this
