An enthusiastic democratic rural
editor, with more feathers ID the wings
OF his Imagination than in the tail of
his Judgment, exclaims:
All that is needed is for every democrat Ia the
land fo lay aside all foolishness and petty
anlmosities and do his full duty. Victory is
Victory might be yours indeed, ii ii
we're possible for every democrat in
the land to lay aside all foolishness, .
but the leopard can't change his spots
and democrats are as prone to politi-
cal foolishness as the sparks to fly
upward. The democratic ass may
don either the lions skin or the Judi
eial ermine, but he'll show his true
nature and make donkey of himself
in any disguise.

the laws of my State prohibiting polyga-

answer to question to why he did not

that polygamous Capitalization is forbidden
by both the law Of the land and the law

he asked: Then, as head OF the church, you

was oversight and would be corrected
Replying TO Chairman Burrows, Mr.. Smith
said that he does not teach polygamy, and
added: II not openly and obnoxiously

How could you better teach polygamy
than by practicing it?' Mr.. Burrows con

The reply was: 81 am not practcine

MUCH DAMAGE WROUGHT
BY PERU EARTHQUAKE
Lima, Callao and Chorillos Felt
Shock in It's Greatest Sever
ity-Railway Blocked.

NEW YORK, March 5.-Only one person
was killed, but many walls fell and much
damage was done by the earthquake, which
occurred Friday, says a dispatch from
Lima, Peru.
One of the structures seriously affected
was the Cathedral. Its right tower was
cracked and much damage was done to
statues and works of art. Scarcely a house
In the city escaped damage. Doors and
windows were opened and reshut by the
tremors. Roofs were dislodged and pic
lures, mirrors and glassware in shops were
destroyed. The balconies of a large part
of the buildings in the city tumbled to the
ground.
A dispatch from Chorillos says that the
earthquake was more destructive there
than in Lima. 1t cracked the walls of
churches and destroyed pictures, statues
and crockery. In Callao walls of numerous
houses fell, while the docks and the iron
bridge suffered seriously. Traffic on the
Central Railway was stopped by rocks fall
ing on the track.
