ARIZONA,

Mormon Inclination Towards That That Territory. .... SjNrf A Piece of Interesting Current History

About the mormons.

[Krom an Occasional Correspondent ot the GAZtTTK Camp McDowell, Arizona, Nov. 24. To the Editor of tbe GAZETTE:

For several years past a rumor has prevailed that heMormons, on account ot having been closely pressed by the Gentiles and the United States Government, and of their own rapidly increating numbers, have been looking for a new land where they could follow their creeds and inclinations with less interruption than in Utah, Arizona, the land ot rattle snakes atid corpions, and towards which the sun has no mercy, has loomed up prominency as their objective point, *8 affording the necessary facilities for the plying of Mormon vocations. They have looked to Arizor.a with a longing eye and yearning heart, no doubt influenced by the knowledge that it was thinly settled, and the only place where there was land to be acquired under the homestead laws sufficient to meet their wants. So one fine summer morning Mr. DanielWebster Jones, an elder in the church, 'awakened from some pleasing dream,' in which the spirit of the Almightv appeared and in etherial tones directed him to take up his bed, gathei a few ot his followers around him and proceed to that bright land and there establish those theories and principles of which he had been made a chosen advocate. Acting upon this sudden and Heaven's revealed order, Mr. Jones at once called a few ot his band around him, and announced his intention of losing no delay ii. complying mith this wonderlul re-elation direct from-Heaven, and earlv in September, 1875, he with his son ami five brothers ot the faith started on their journey of finding a garden sput in the prtmiscd land. Alter wandering «li over Arizona for some ten months, witlu ut any fu'ther revelation, either from Heaven, or otherwise, Mr. Jones returned to Utah with his faith in the dream still unshaken called a few more 'Latter Day Saints, around him, and having chosen a number sufficient for a good colony, again, in the winter of 1876-7, tet out in obedience to the divine revelation, trusting implicitly in the belief that the Ruler of the uni vene would command him to halt at the proper ti ne and place. On the 6th ot March, 1877, this little banu of the faithlul Id.'iated their horses, struck a fire and made their scanty 6upper at a spot on the east bank of the Salt River fifteen (15) miles south of this post. Having tiuibhed their lrugal meal and returned in due form, thanks for the same, their wearied limbs were stretched upon the bare eurth, with God's ever watchlul ej to protect them fiom harm by the prowl ii Apaches. Singular as it may seem. Mr Jones had revealed to him in a dreu thi* nigh* that his li i.bs rested upon the land which he and his followers weie to appropriate to tueir own use, and on the lohowing morning, Mr. Jones declared to hi* lollowers tnat they nad found the home revealed in the first dream True to their instincts, they at once commerced to render the thtn barren home habitable.

The work of surveying the land atid having it entered under the homestead iaws having been finished we find this little colony, which numbers in all about 50 people, including women and children, the owners of neai ly two sections ot land, or something over 1,200 acres, in thecen tre of which they have erected a large rectangular shaped adobe house, capable of accommodating 12 iatnilies, with their peculiar insight they have so built this house, and entered the land that a portion of the building rests upon the different quarter sections of land, thus enabling them all to live in one house and still meet the requirements of the law. The work of improvement has gone forward rapidly and even now they are self sustaining. An irrigating ditch over four miles in length, has been taken out, at a cost with their labor,of,$2,500. A peculiarity of the colony is that while they believe in and preach polygamy none of them practice it. They have proved quite an addition to this valley and their advent has been heralded with pleasure by other settlers, and a nail town is fast growing up around them. Mr. Jones informs me that another, larger colony will be out next spring to locate adjoining his, and who can sav lhal Arizona mav not yet have a Salt Lake Citv

HE CARDS THE PUBLIC.

To the Editor of the GAZETTE:

Will vou give place in your excellent paper for the following lir.es lor the benefit of your many readers that their minds may be disabused of a false report that appeared in ycur columns some six weeks ago, made up and reported by one bachelor doctor of this city who gave the same as facts to one of your reporters and wished it published and it was through your column?, clipped by other city papers.

In order that all minds may be set right and that the meddlesome doctor may become noieu for his great ability in tounding a report without any foundation whatever, I deem it just and right that he have the benatit oi a few lines that he may become popular for his skill in manufacturing at least, if not successful in curing his patients, lie certainly had but little to do to jump at such conclusions {as he did or perhaps he judges others by self. ^Knowing as be did that for the last three years my business has been making one round trip west with parties once a month at least, why he should set up such a howl that I had jumped the coun~ try and didn't own anvthmg but a few small pieces of property, and wasn't'coming back any more to Terre Haute, and had left so many to mourn my absence in consequence of the amount coming to them. It is strange that he would become so much concerned about others, for certain thete was nothing coming to him, and while he has been meddling with thai which by no means concerned him,to say the least of it,he has been in small business and would perhaps make more to tend hereafter to -his own affairs. I will at present withhold the name of the bachelor doctor, but if desired in the future, will give his name in full.

THE TERRE HAUTE WEEKLY GAZETTE

TOWN VS. COUNTRY,

AS PRODT'CKRS OF BUSINESS MORALITY. On Sunday ni,zht the writer heard a popular preacher of this city declaim frpm his pulpit the lesser honesty of the farmer —the rural population—as compared with the denizens of town and city. As a statement of fact such a comparison is open to the gravest doubt. The reverent gentleman most likely is in no condition to predict any such judgment. More than likely he has come in contact with the Arcadian Ishmaelite wht^ peddles 'laced' wood, or 'outside' butter or 'fresh' vegetables. His judgment is on a par with that of a large class of people who *ee no further than the end of tneir in tellectual noses, and judge the Chinese nation by the laundry men, railroad shovelers and hired prostitutes, who form the bulk of the Chinese coming to these shores.

The sort of pert city civilization with its numberless shams and defaults is hardly a better soil for moral'ty than the counti v.

Bankruptcy has become a fashion ab business past time though of course many who are compelled to grind through its mill are in no wav responsible tor it. and there is not a total abstinence from it, even in the country. Real-estate gambling, before the late freeze, was a "recreation very often sandwiched between regular business pursuits. Com'promising at from thirty to sixty cen's on the dollar long since lost any novelty it ever possessed. These are 1 he people whose urban morality, as instructors of their children, is to discount that of their country neighbors. One usually gets the name of "Grumbler" or "Old Fogy'" for saying an) thing of the kind. Bu inquire of the teachers of this and other western cities, what some of the chief tendencies to be met and corrtcted are, and one ot the first things cited is lying. In a country of hills and mountains and lakes and picturesque scenery, a child might lie from a rebundant fancy or imagination. But western children, reared on a plain where one must go up in a balloon to see anything and where the liver very seldom acts conducive to fancy, take a9 few flights of imagination as they do in balloons.

Th« speaker explained his fact by sa) ing in substance that our country cousins had never come into a consciousness of business morality and that they lacked culture to comprehend it.

In this there are two rather doubtful assumptions. One is likely to be extinguished by being called a Catholic or Jesuitical reasoner, tor hinting that culture i* not a morahzer, but yet one is almost tempted to invite the snuffers. The fallacy lies in the wint of distinction between crime and injury. Many things were formerly regarded as innocent thit are now justly branded with the work ot Cain. On the other hand some things formerly blackened by the law of conscience are now not only tolerated but justified. The majority of criminals, convicted and tree, an not ignoramuses. A hog may yo thr m^h an open gate info acorn field and stuff itself, but it takes a pet fox to rob a well protec-ed hen-roost, he mo»: am' the gieatest crimes against society are preinediated, skillfully worked up, and

manv

of them show an adroit

ness and power of thought worthv ot a bitter deed. People who look for a moral millenium consequent on uriversal education are likely to make ready a set pf cfothes that never will be worn. Civilization means complexity complexity means a greater number of wants '.0 be supplied and a greater number o' wants to be supplied means greater temptation and-pres-sure to crime. The intention brands the act. The bushman judged on this standard is as moral as the Terre Hautentot—no disrespect intended—-or any other civilized man. Indeed, he has fewer wants and cravings to goad him to violence and crime. The Indian, uncorrupted by his brother civilized savage, mav bat'.eV out the brains of his hereditary enemy, but subjectively, he commit* no crime, "for he only protects the hunting ground of his fathers, and the squaw and pappuoses of his bosom.

The inhabitant ot the city may laugh at the contretemps of the awkward countryman and may ease his feelings in a swear at the rural Philistine who sells him 'outside'butter, but neither the laugh nor the BWear is a good premise on which to base a judgement agamst country morality. As producers of intellect town deserves tc go up head.

Railroads, the press, cheap and quick inter communication are doing much to equalize the differences of city and country, intellectually and morally, whatever they are. Social fashions and customs bid fair to invade and capture the country to fai as is practicable. It is reasonable to suppose they will carry in their wake the leaven of city morality, whatever that tnay be. But, really, ihere is no or little difleience between town and country as producers of morality, since mental acuteness has little to do with it. One would naturally

OBITUARY.

SIMEON CORY. 4 [From Tuesday's Daily.]

At noon yesterday Simeon Cory died at his residence on south Fourth street, being fifty-eight years of a^e.

The deceased was born at Mortristown N. H. He has long been a useful member of this community. A full biography will appear in an early issue. The date of the funeral has not yet been fixed. ACTION OF ASBURY SUNDAY SCHOOL

The death of Mr. Cory is a great blow to Asbury Sunday school. He was once Superintendent and has always been an active worker. At the Sunday school session in the afternoon the following was presented:

Moved by the pastor that in view of the unexpected death of S. Cory, a former superiuter.daut of this Sunday School, who died at his late residence at noon to-day, a short memorial service be held in the school at the close of the present session, ano that a committee of two be appointed to draft suitable resolutions, to be presented at the beginning of the pervice, expressive of our own deep affliction, etc and of our sympathy with the family of the deceased.

The motion was pafsed and Messrs II. Copeland and E. M. Walmsfey were appointed the said committee.

The extra session was presided over by the Sunday-school officers The resolutions were reported as follows and were adopted, and on motion ordered to be spread on record and a copy sent to bereaved friends:

THE RESOLUTIONS.

Whereas, In God's Providence our former Suoerintendent, Brothe- S. Cory, has been suddenly removed from the ac live scenes of life it is the sense of Asburn Sunday School to

Resolve first. That in the removal bydeath of Brother Cor}*, Asbury Sabbath School loses one ot its most faithful friends and energetic members. For several years acting as its Superintendent (contrary to his own judcrnient), he evinced an earnest and diligent interest in the duties that devolved upon him.

Resolved second, That we have received with unfeigned sorrow the intelli pence of his death, and hereby express to his afflicted family our cordial sympathy with them in this hour of their Jeep bereavement

Resolved third, That the adoption of these resolutions be accompanied by an appropriate memorial service, and that the proceedings be communicaLe-i by our secretary to the family of the deceased and recorded upon the minutes of the Sabbath School.

Respectfully submitted,

THE KETTLEDRUM. |From Tuesday's lJaih.|

In response to the call by the ladies of the Ladies Aid riocc-v a large attendance of ladies assembled at the resi denceofMrs. L. Thompson yesterday to discuss the st manner to arrange for a monster 'kettledrum' social entertainment. The parlors were filled to overflowing with ladies, all enthusiastic in the intended measure. They were called to order at 2 p. M., and after a lon» and very animated interchange of ideas, the result arrived at was:

That a committee, consisting of two ladies from each church be appointed, to meet and arrange a programme, and to solicit gifts from our busin ss men and citizens generally for the sale table.

The generally approved idea of the entertainment is about as follows: I —The tea table, served by young ladies costume. This is the 'Kettledrum proper. 2—A grand sale table of all kinds of goods contiibutcd. 3—A grand dining table—"meals at all hours and tn nicest style. 4—A series of various attractions gotten up by the young ladies to please and attract the you. people. 5—Something to be performed on the stage. Th.re will be, at least two per formances one to be a short sparkling comedj, the other to be ofa vocal nature in character costumes.

This will surely be varied enough to attract all our citizens and cause them to enjoy spending numerous dimes in aiding the cause. There is no doubt but it will be a success the nicest kind fot our most enterprising ladies have the matter in charge and tnev know no such word as fail.

The hog cholera is raging in this part of the country to a considerable extent.

Fall pastures never were better at least not for many-years, in this part ot the country.

The farmers feel that they can never think of selling their hogs at the price now offered.

A young man. who is teaching school in one of our districts, left his school in the care of one ot his brothers, one d:iy last week, and told his pupils that had to go 10 town to attend to some business that ought to ha /e been attended to lnng ago. The next merning it was ascertained that he took a Fair and went to'town' a.id came home with another Singhurte. He told the children at school the next day that his 'Dauy' had five more brothers now than she used to have, and he had three more sisters than he had before he took a Fair and went to town.

Our boys, where are they?—'The time is coming, and now is' when we have no boys First a child, then a man—never a boy. It is said that this township sup ports some of :he worst young fellows in the country. We have a class, now in their 'teens' v/ho thii,k they are under a very strict rule if not allowed to saddle the best horse on the farm, and ride him from early morn till twelve or one o'clock at night.
