Ex-Governor A. C. Gibbs of Ore
gon lectured on polygamy t Chi
cago on the 5lh. He said it was
.impossible to correct under the Ed
munds law, and not much could be
expected of the present conre??.
All ministers should preach on the
subject of polygamy at least once a
year, to keep the interest in the sup
pression of the evil before the minds
of the people.
If dynamite argument should be
used in the United States it would
be no more than proper that the per
petrators thereof should be buried
alive by an outraged people. Bui
still the usual habit of the average
American politician and demagogue
to favor all outrages against cur gov
ernment and. tho principles thereof
and tho rights of her citizens in or
der to seat themselves in oflicial posi

government through ?uch politicians

now do Polygamous Mormonism.
Let it live and encourage it to pros

institution may help them to place.
The Ktterary exercises of the
Adelphian literary society at the
City Hall last Saturday night, fully
demonstrates what we have always
contended for, and thai is if our home

from patronizing the great number of
traveling humbugs and shows that
scour the country. We have home
tallent, if encouraged and properly
trained is far better than the travel-

ways have been strongly of the opin
ion that so long as people have a
desire to encourage and patronize
shows and places of amusement of
ill kinds, whether they be theatrical,
dramatic, minstrel or other kinds ot
amusements fof this nature, that His
much better to encourage and pat
ronize home tallent in these under
takings than to be throwing our
substance away upon some traveling

in these occupations because ol their
being too lazy to follow some steady
occupation.

TECS SPREAD OF MORMONISM IN NORTH
CAROLINA-
It might bo well for those who
have no fear of the number of Mor
mons increasing to an extent suffi
cient to do any hurt to our institu
tions, to read tho following dis
patchesr "The progress of Mormonism in
North Carolina is causing much
alarm. In rural districts remote from
towus, missionaries are at work se
ducing the ignorant. In Gaston and
Rutherford counties especially is this
work being carried on. There is a
band of seventeen Mormon mission
aries scattered around this section,
who keep up no public intercourse
but meet quietly and compare notes
of progress. They appoint a meet
ing in the neighborhood, inviting
only thoss whom they think will be
easy subjects of conversion. Once
in the meetings, morbid feelings and
cariosity lead the people on until the
work is done. Before being admit
ted they are baptized by emersion,
and this fact finds success with the
votaries of Baptist tendencies. The
baptisms aro always in the night
time, and the dupes are required to
be in a state of nudity. The halt
dozen counties adjoining Rutherford
are the special fields of these men.
Among the most prominent of these
preachers are William Dorton and
Jabez Brentwell. They have con
verted thirty-seven, fifteen of whom
they have already sent to Utah. Not
ong since two apostles were passing
a field, in which two white women
were plowing. They hailed them,
had a conveisation with them, and
within half an hour took them to the
ford near by and baptized them,
when they returned to their plowing
and next day were on their way to
Utah. This shows how easily these
ignorant creatures are duped, and
as the field of operations is being
continually enlarged, a great portion
of the people being of the poor class
the question is becoming one of great
interest, which the legislature will
be called upon to settle. Emigration
to Utah does not represent the full
extent of the evil done. Whole com
munities give up other church rela
tions and become what may be called
semi-Mormons, laying the ground
work for more pronounced Mormon
ism hereafter. It is this demoralized
element which remains at home, from
which the trouble will come. The
Journal-Observer, a leading paper,
states on this subject this morning
that it is a shame to our civilization
that such things are permitted in our
midst. Missionaries are needed, but
the sort of missionary power, and
the one to suit the case best, is in
the household of nearly every man,
or it cau be procured at any hard
ware store. It is the shot gun. In
troduce a few of these priests to these
missionaries, and our country will
soon be effectually rid of them."
''The Star recommends easrern
churches and educational societies to
support the new western educational
commission in Utah, as tho most
effectual mode ot breaking the power
of the Mormon church- It says:
'Thus far the Edmund's law has been
practically a dead letter. It has not
sent as much as one polvgamist to
but a natural revolution would ever
shake its hold."
After all we read and learn of the
rapid spread of Polygamous Mor
monism in the United States we stil
find full grown American born citi
zens claiming the right and intelli
gence enough to vote who say that
they do not feer any evil consequences
will result from the spread of Mor
monism. The fact of the matter is
that the United Stales acts with such
imbecility in suppressing this evil
that nothing will suffice short of a
war similar to the struggle which re
sulted in the abolition of negro
slavery. Demagogues and politici
ans are afraid of their sueoess and
they will now wiuk at Mormonism
in order to ride into office. It would
be better for cur country if sach
politicians were hung.

Oats are doing finely with some in
crease in acreage. The outlook for
corn is gloomy, owing to the unfav

cereal and poor seed. In some in

MEETING OF BOARD Of RSGSf T3.
The board ofRegents for the Ag
ricultural Co'Jege held ther regular
annual session during last Monday
and Tuesday at the college building
A full board was present during the
session except Mr. A. Cauthorn who
is in Missouri visiting relatives and
friends. The board transacted much
business of importance. They ap
pointed an executive committee
whoso duty it is to have a geneal
oversight and management of the
business upon such matters as may
arise needing immediate attention
during .the time between the sessions
of the board of regents. The reports
of the officers showed the, institution
to be in a flourishing and prosperous
condition. All of the indebtedness
upon the college farm and all other
debts- was ordered to be paid off.
Suggestions were made in the matter
ot erecting a substantial aud com
modious brick college building on
the agricultural farm and the matter
was left in the hands of the executive
committee for them to devise the
manner in which to proceed in such
matters with power to act in setting
the plans on foot. The board elec
ted the faculty for the ensuing year
which is tjiVeirin anotiier column, i
only intensify the misdirected enthu
siasm in which the system is an
chored. The new western educa
tional society was founded for the
purpose, of establishing free christian
schools in territories where they
were most palpably needed. Gen
erous subscriptions have been turnish
od by individuals and churches in
many places. As a means of accom
plishing its end, nothing yet tried
has surpassed the christian schools."

"Talrnag recently in Brooklyn
tabernacle, denounced the continued
importation of Mormon proselytes
into this country. Referring to the
800 captives of Mormondom landed
therejast Sunday, he saidr ''The last
legislation on the subject turns out
to be as impotent as all that went
before. The government ot the
United States sits idiotically in the
presence of this evil. The appalling
fact must be stated that Mormonism
has become such a political power
that public men ambitious for the
presidency, or any position in the
gift of the states of tho Union, are
afraid to reprehend the evil lest their
official prospects be blasted, Mor
monism holds the balance of power
in several states and territories. The
evil is powerfully intrenched and
overshadows the national capitol."
He declared that the day for a peace
ful solution of this question is past.

MISS WILLARD'S VISIT.
I desire to say that the plan of Miss Wil
lard's appointments was made under instruc
tion from her to limit them to six towns in
Western Oregon, besides Portland and to
put the State Convention at the close of the
tour. The places were selected as to reach
the people of the State as widely as
possible in that number of addresses.
I have received many letters asking
for her service elsewhere, and greatly
regret that a favorable answer cannot be re
turned, I beg the friends who have written
to accept this statement as an answer to
each, as my health for a month has been
such as to preclude correspondence. The
usual reductions of fares will be made to
and from the convention.
I wish also to say that since the list of ap
pointments for Miss Willard was published
many applications have come to have the
time of the great convention at Portland
changed, chiefly because it was appointed at
the time the Grand Lodge of Good Tem
plars meets at Astoria. After much thought
aud consultation it has been determined to
meet this desire, as we all desire the co-operation
of all temperance workers at the
convention. This necessitates a slight
change in the appointments, and they will
stand as follows:
Astoria, Sunday night June 10.
Reception, Portland " ,11
Albany., 12
Eugene City 13
Convention, Portland June 15, 16, 17
Salem June 18
Corvallis " 19
McMiunville (if possible)., ' 20
This will be final, and wo hope it will be
satisfactory.

Shocking Accident.
Mr. S. A. Clarke, of this city, says the
Salem Statesman, who was a passenger on
the express train from Portland last eve
ning, has communicated to us the following
particulars of a shocking accident that
happened below Oregon City :
As the evening train was nearing Oregon
City, Mr. and Mrs. Hiram Straight were
walking down the track to their home,
which is close by the railroad. Mr. Straight
says the old lady has spells of being bewil
dered. He was a little distance from her,
and as the engine approached she said,
"This is a good place to get on," and stepped
on the track again, before he could stop
her. She was struck by the locomotive,
and knocked down a steep bank into the
brush. She was taken up insensible, and
the train backed down to the house with
her. The bones of both legs were broken
near the ankles, her face was badly cut,
and bleeding. As they took her on a spring
bed, she revived, and screamed with pain.
Her injuries will probably result fatally.
The accident was a terrible shock to the
passengers on the train, among whom were
manylwBes. Mr. Straight entirely exone
rates all parties connected with the train
from blame, and the above is the version of
the accident which he gave.

LESSON IN SPELLING.
Since the introduction of spelling matches, many
words have come prominently into notice words
that were previously, comparatviely unknown. For
instance, wefind Antiseptic, meaning: preventing and
stopping all fermentation and decomposition, and
Analgesiant: painkiller. Then there is Antipyretic:
cooling down inflammation and fever heat. These
three words, so often mis-pelled, are three of the
cardinal virtues of something that will cure many a
bad spell and that is Salicylica, pronounced Sal-i-cyl-i-ca.
Warranted to afford immediate relief, and
guarranteed to cure Rheumatism, Gout or Neuralsga.
