NOTICE FOR PUBLICATIOX.
Strange fancies sometimes take pos
cession of religious sects, but the
strangest of ail is probably the dis
tressing mania that lias enthralled
5,000 liu&bian Doukhoborsti, who have
located in western Manitoba, says a
special to the .New York Times from
Vorktown, Manitoba. In the Swan
river district the government is appre
hensive for the remarkable craze that
lias taken possession of those colon
ists. A visit to the community showed
that the sights, scenes and the horror
depicted were almost beyond concep
tion.
Ml It is well known that the Doukhobor
sti are adverse to shedding blood. This
is the reason why they emigrated
Irom Kussia, and it is also tin; reason
why the Canadian government exempt
ed them from military duty as induce
ment for their location on the prairie
lands of the west. As to what they
should eat, this was purely a personal
matter, but, as it appears, it was one
of the features that wasoverlooked bv
the government that will cause im
mense trouble.
In this country a man may eat what
he chooses, and if his religion dictates
that he shall conform to a vegetable
diet, such beliefs are respected. All
might lLave been well had this state
of affairs been confined to vegetarian
ism, but the Doukhoborsti religion
does not appear tc be a finished prod
uct. It has been constantly undergo
ing changes. From the belief that it
was a sin to eat meat, it seems a long
jump to reach the conclusion that it is
wrong to eat animal products, but
these people have now given np drink
ing milk, eating bulter, cheese, eggs,
etc., and the cows, oxen, goats and fowl
are increasing and multiplying, and
waxing fat, while the people are on
the verge of starvation.
Having reached this absurd posi
tion, it was but a step to another and.
more ridiculous one. If it were wrong
to eat the flesh of animals the same
line of reasoning made it comparative
ly earp to condemn the use of leather
harness made from the hides of God's
creatures, and then followed the con
demnation of woolen clothing, because
wool grown on the bodies of sheep,
which also belonged to the Lord. The
next step was still more sweeping in
its effect on their economic condition.
It was to make servant of any of
the lower animals, to use them for
beasts of burden or for any other pur
pose. They had the courage of their convictions-,
and at once turned out their
horses. cattle and sheep, driving them
to "(Jod's Hill." to forage for them
selves, placing all the burdens of farm
life on their own shoulders. For all
drawing purposes, such as hauling
heavy loads on wagons, men take the
place of horses and oxen. Twelve or
14 men hitched to a plow suffice for
this purpose, and it is the only method'
employed by them in thecultivation of
the soil. Women, even, are employed
in this manner, though when coming
into town men only are seen hauling
the wagons and bnygies. Every day
in the streets of York town dozens of
men may be seen drawing wagons,
hauling what Iitttle produce they may
have for sle, and carrying back to
their farms flour ana other neces
sities.
The Doukhoborsti are clad exclu
sively in cotton clothes and wear rub
her boots or shoes knit or woven with
binder twine, which thev buv for the
purpose. Their food consist of bread
and water, and such vegetables as they
grow, and wild berries a nd herbs which
they gather. Their farms are neglect
ed and their stock, of which they have
much, is running wild in the hills,
where it will all die during the winter,
or be appropriated by those who are
not of their religious faith, and who
will at least give the ?t'k shelter.
With the advent of cold weather
starvation and disease must certainly
follow, and they appear to know this,
for they have been in correspondence
with authorities in southern Cali
fornia, Nevada, Arizona and Australia,
with a view to emiirratii n to a warmer
climate where the conditions would
enable them to subsist on the soil
without t respassj ng on the possessions
of the animal kingdom. It is needless
to say that no one want them, as they
are still in Manitoba, an elephant on
the hands- of the government- that
brought, them from Kuia a few years
ago to develop the prairie land of the
west.
