EDITOR DEFIANT IN FAREWELL
Illinois Man, Long a Reformer, Forced
Out by Brewers and Saloon Men.

Out by Brewers and Saloon Men.
The stormy career of Ike Heller.
publisher and editor of the Spring
Valley Press, weekly paper. endeI
this evening, says a dispatch from
Spring Valley, Ill.,, when he stepped
down and out after hurling defiance
in farewell editorial bristling with
vituperation in which he said:
IF there was ever happy mo.
msnt in our life that is when we come
to the end of our nights work in
Spring Valley. Friends. the best we
ever had, we have in Spring Valley;
enemies, the bitterest we ever had,
we have in Spring Valley, but it is
a pleasure to know that when our
labors on earth are ended we will
spend our eternity with friends in
heaven, while our enemies will be TAX
ing enforced sulphuric baths in hell"
For ten years Heller has been en-
gagged in the reform business in this
city, and every week deluged his enc
mics with the most vindictive English
contained in the vocabulary. His pet
aversion was the Sunday saloon, and
his fight against the saloonkeepers
cost them many hundreds of dollars.
Then came a combination of the sa-
loon men and brewers, and they paid
the editor three prices for his printing
plant to let up on them and leave
town. The new editor and business
manager is John r. Thomas, a local
politician and manager of one of the
brewing companies.

CONDEMNS MORMoNISM.
Miss Hughes, a Missionary, Lectures
on the Subject.
TFrom Fridays Dailv.l

Miss Hughes, missionary who
spent five years teaching in Utah de-
livered lecture at the Presbyterian
church last night on "Mormonism. +"
Miss Hughes is pleasant speaker
and was greeted by a good audience
Among other things she said:
"Mormonism is counterfeit of
christianity, therefore ii has many out
ward forms and ceremonies that have
been copied from christian churches
These are merely the screens behind
which there thrives an oath-bound Sc
cret society for the encouragement of
Illegal practices and licentious living.
There are some Mormons who are
not so bad as their religion because
they have an inherited tendency to
virtue or have come in contact with
influences which Mormonism does not
afford. The faith itself is demoraliz-
ing and the grossest of evils are not
only unrebuked but encouraged by
church leaders.
THE Mormon church Is the enemy
of the United States government
Through its teachings 1t is undermin.
ing four pillars of our constitution
God, home, liberty and education. BY
teaching that God is a physical, pas.
sionate, licentious being, the minds of
the people are corrupted and their
ideas of right and wrong confused /;
the moral code is reversed, and vice
is called virtue.
"Polygamy is not the worst feature
of Mormonism. II is only the faint.
est suggestion of the crimes for which
that socalled church stands. The
church leaders are trying to make the
public think that 1t has been aban-
doned but they have ever been deceiv-
ers, They made a law against poly
gamy In order that Utah might be-
| come state, but Mormons were elect.
ed to office and the law has never been
enforced. 1t is openly violated, but
nothing except mans confession will
lead to his conviction and this only in
the few communities where there Is
large non-Mormon population. II
there is convincing evidence against
him he is quickly sent abroad as a
missionary.
THE only remedy is national law,
an amendment to our constitution,
and 1t must be secured soon or the
Mormon church will have the power
to defeat it, 1t is colonizing in all the
western states and controlling the
votes of all its members. 1t already
holds the balance of power in several
states outside of Utah and can dictate
to politicians and legislatures. II it
can get control of twelve states 1t can
defeat the ratification of the amend
ment and that is its plan. Its mis-

have detached themselves from the
