LIBERTY STAKE OF ZION.

The organization Of the Liberty Stake
OF Zion Is an important event In the
history and progress OF the Church OF
Jesus Christ OF Latter-day Saints,
There are three other Stakes to be
formed out OF the Salt Lake Stake OF
Zion. When these are completed, they
will make a total of eleven Stakes
which were parts OF the original Salt
Lake Stake.
We need not here repeat the reasons
for the latest movement In this direo-
ton, as they have been very clearly set
forth in the explanations given by Pres
ident Lyman and others as reported In
the Deseret News. Suffice it to say,
they are cogent and ample, and there
appears to be general feeling OF cor
dial appreciation among the officers and
members OF the Church who are direct
ly interested.
The name Of the new Stake-Liberty
lis, in our opinion. the best OF all the
titles that were proposed. There could
not have been better choice OF officers
for II than that decided upon by the
First Presidency, endorsed by the
Twelve, and supported by unanimous
votes Of the Latter-day Saints residing
IN the new Stake. They were all In
cluded in the list Of nominations by the
body OF the Priesthood at the meeting
on Tuesday last and therefore could not
fall to be acceptable.
There remain now to be chosen, TWO
Counselors TO the President OF the High
Priests quorum. and the officers OF the
several auxiliary societies, which VIII
bring into active service many other
young men whose names were In the
list proposed, and ladies suitable for the
stations to bo filed The Presidency
of the Stake and others will attend to
this duty, and they will doubtless pro-
coed as wisdom shall direct to perform
It to the best OF their ability
Until Presidents Joseph II. Smith and
+. M. Lyman return from Washington,
the organization Of the other three
Stakes will doubtless be postponed.
Meanwhile the Presidency OF the Salt
Lake Stake win continue their labors,
and the affairs OF the remaining portion
OF the Stake will be conducted as usual
The regular monthly Priesthood meet
Ing will be held next Friday In the AS
sembly Hall at seven o'clock
The Tabernacle Sunday services. ex-
oept on Fast days, Will be held as
usual ut p, m. for the people OF the
new Stakes and the general public, The
Tabernacle choir will remain intact.
The Bishops will hold their ward meet
ings as before. Nothing Is to interfere
with the Tabernacle general meetings.
This we are sure, will be satisfactory
to the people, and the entire arrange
ment will prove harmonious and bene-
fclal, Zion Is growing and the work
OF the Lord is onward!

ON RELIGIOUS TOPICS.
New York Examiner.

The one great obstacle In The way OF
the union OF Chrlstendom, about which
so much is said nowadays. Is Error
error In doctrine error in practice.
There can be no fellowship between err
ror and truth. Those who believe that
spiritual regeneration il the result OF
conscious faith in Jesus Christ cannot
Join hands with believers In baptismal
regeneration, wrought In unconscious
infants by an act Of priestly leserde-
main. Mere forms Of worship and of
church government might be matters
for concession and Encouragement, but
Baptists, at least, must stand aloof
from all entangllng alliance with error
so radical as that Of mechanical regen-
GRAFTON. And this, We believe, will be
the case also with our Presbyterian,
Congregational and Methodist brethren,
in spite OF their practice OF the unsar.p-
tural and meaningless rite of infant
baptism.

COURT cor spIRiT WARNINGS.
Magistrate Who Is 10 Try the Moeres says
He Isn't worrying.


Hugh r. Moore and his wife, Cora. OF
sai Madison street, Brooklyn. spiritualist
mediums, who were arrested on Tuesday
on complaint OF Jacob Rasmussen, on
charge OF assault, and who spent the night
In Raymond street jail because they could
not get a 900 bail, were In the Gates avenue
court yesterday morning. They looked
decidedly the worse for their night behind
the bars and refused to say whether the
spirits had visited them or not.
Magistrate Furlong, however. was visited
by the spirits In the early morning. When
he sat down to his breakfast he found on
his table letter that somewhat spoiled his
appetite. 1t read:
SIR The Black, Red and Yellow Hand
will get after you II you don't let up on the
spirits. TX. O.
well, wife, the spirits are after me, y
said the Magistrate.
Spirits. what spirits?" demanded the
wife.
why, Moore's spirits" said his Honor,
with sigh. LET them come. l don't
them; Let them come In singly or in
punches, or any old way. dead or alive, l
don't care. And don't care II they are
red, black or yellow"
Despite the brave words the Magistrate
failed to finish his breakfast and hurried
out OF the house to court. On his desk
was second letter from the spirit world.
This letter attacked Mrs. Sawtele, rival
medium, who is accused by the Moores
Of attempting to break up their spiritual
istic seances and business. The letter
severely criticised the Magistrate for send
ing the Moores to jail and declared that the
newspapers were greatly at fault in their
ridcule OF spiritualism as practised by
the Moores
Both sides agreeing the case OF the Moores
was adjourned until Monday. Bail was
furnished for the mediums and they left,
declaring, through counsel, that they would
prove their integrity to the satisfaction
OF the Court.
