Throe weeks had passed since Jrfrson
Hope and his comrades had* r
parted from Salt Lake City. John n
urrier's heart was sore within him \
hen he thought of tlie young man's t
turn, and of the impending loss of t
s adopted child. Yet her bright
id happy face reconciled him to the s
rang? nient more than any argument >
>uld have done, lie had always de- t
rniined, deep down in his resolute i
art, that nothing would ever induce t
lm to allow his daughter to wed a
ormon. Such a marriage he reirded
as no marriage at all, but as \
shame and a disgrace. Whatever r
e might think of the Mormon doc- i
ine upon that one point he was in- t
exible. lie had to seal his mouth r
a the subject, however, for to ex- '
ress an unorthodox opoinion was a i
angerous matter in those days in the j
and <>] tne saints. t
Yes, a dangerous matter?so dan- t
'roils that oven the most raintly dar- i1
only whisper their religious opin- 1
ins with hated breath, lest sonienng
whieli fell from their lips might 1
e misconstrued and bring down a a
ivift. retribution upon tlmm. The
ictims of persecution had now turn- f
il persecutors on their own account, <
ml persecutors of the most terrible 1'
escription. Not tho Inquisition of i
ovi.llo, n,or the German Vehmge- i
icht, nor tho secret socities of Italy 1
ere ever able to put a more formlda- <
le machinery in motion than that f
hich cast a cloud over the Territory s
f Utah. v
Its in visibility, and 1 ho mystery I
hich was attached to it, made this t
rgani/.ation doubly terrible. It ap- t
eared to he omniscient and omnipoent,
and yet was neither seen o?' t
enrd. The man who held out
gainst tho church vanished away, 1
nd none knew hither he had gone or s
,'hat had befallen him. His wife and
hildren awaited him at home, but no '
ather had ever returned to tell them 1
iow he had fared at the hands of his '<
ecret judges. A rash word or a hasy
act was followed by annihilation,
nd none knew whither he drifted or '
night be of this terrible power which
ras suspended over them. Ni wonder
hat men went about in fear and
rumbling, and that even in the heart
f the wilderness they dared not whisicr
the doubts which oppressed them.
At first this vacuo and terrthle nnw.
r was exorcised only np'on the rocnlitrants,
who, having embraced the
ilormon faitii, wisliod afterward to
lorvert or to abandon it. .Soon, however,
it took a wider range. The suply
of adult women was running short
md polygamy, without a female popilation
on which to draw, was a baron
doctrine indeed. Strange rumors
mgan to bo bandied about ?rumors
>f murdered immigrants and rilled
amps i 11 the regions where Indians
lad never been seen. Fresh women
ippeared in the harems of the elders
women who pined and wept, and
ore upon their faces the traces of un?xtinguisliable
horror. Related wan*
lerers upon the mountains spoke of
:>ands of armed men, masked,
stealthy, and noiseless, who flitted by
hem in the darkness. These tales
md rumors took substance and shape,
md were corroborated and recorrob>rated,
until they resolved themselves
nto a (Vphnlte name. To this day, in
ho lonely ranches of the West, the
lame of the Danite Band or the Aver
^ing Angels, Is a sinister a?~d an 111Din
ened one.
Fuller knowledge of the organiza:ion
which produced such terrible results
served to increase rather than
[o lessen the horror which it inspired
in the minds of men. None knew
ivho belonged to this ruthless society,
rhe names of the participators in the
leeds of blood and violence, done unlet
the name of religion, were kept
profoundly secret. The very friends
o whom you communicated your misgivings
as to the prophet and his misdon
might be one of those who would
mine forth at night with fire and
sword to exact a terriblo reparation.
Hence every man feared his neighbor
tnd none spoke of the things which
were nearest his heart.
One fine morning John Ferricr was
about to sot out to his wheat-fields
when he heard the click of the latch,
and looking through the window, saw
a stout, sandy-haired, midle aged
man coming up the pathway. His
heart leaped to his mouth, for this
was none other than the great Hrigt

boded him little good, Ferrier ran to
the door to greet the Mormon chief.
The latter, however, received his salutation
coldly, and followed him with
a stern face into the sitting room.
"Brother Ferrier," lie said, taking
a seat and eying the farmer keenly
from under his light-colored eyelashes,
"the true believers have been
good friends to you. We picked you
up when you were starving in the desert,
we shared our food with you,
led you safe to the Chosen Valley,
gave you a goodly share of land, and
allowed you to wax rich under our
protection. Ts not this so?"
"It is so," answered John Ferrier.
"In return for all this we asked but
one condition: that, was, that you
should embraco the true faith, and
J
on form in every way to its usages,
his you promised to do, and this, if
ommon report says truly, you have
eglected."
"And how have I neglected it?" '
sked Ferrier, throwing out his hands
11 expostulation. "Have I not given
o the common fund? Have I not atunded
at the temple? Have I not?"
"Where are your wives?" asked
roung, looking round him. "Call
hem in, that 1 may greet 4hem."
"It is true that I have not maried,"
Ferrier answered. "Hut wonen
were few, and there were many
rho had better claims than I. I was 1
lot a lonely man; 1 had my daughter K
o attend to my wants."
"It is of that daughter that I would
peak to you," said the leader of the
dormons. "She has grown to be the *
lower of Utah, and has found favor 01
n the eyes of many who are high in
he land." ^
John Ferrier groaned internally.
"There are stories of her which I
voulcl fain disbelieve?stories that
die is scaled to some Cientile. This '
nust be the gossip of idle tongues. ^
A'hat is the thirteenth rule In the '
ode of the sainted Joseph Smith? c:
'Let every maiden of the true faith
nuiijf wiim ui nit" uiei'i; lor n sue wen
i Gentile, hIio commits a grievous n
iin." This being so, it is impossible J
hat you, who profess the holy cred, K
diould suffer your daughter to vio- ?
ato it." 3
John Ferrier made no answer, hut
ie played nervously with his riding s1
vliij). _ A
"I'pon this one point your whole a
'aith shall ho tested so it has been H
lerided in the Sacred Council of it
'our. The girl is young, and wo would s:
jot have her wed gray hairs, neither T
vould we deprive her of all choice. 1
Are elders have many heifers, hut our u
hildren must also he provided. Stan- c
rerson has a son, and Drener has a
son, and either of them would gladly 1
velcomc your daughter to their home. p
.et her choose between them. They a
ire young and rich, and of the true n
aith. What say you to that?" e
Ferrier remained silent, for some fl
line with is brows knitted. v
'You will give us time," he said, at a
last. "My daughter is very young? p
die is scarce of an age to marry."
"She shall have a month *o choose" n
said Young, rising from his seat. "At p
the end of that time she shall give j,
answer." 1
He was passing through the door
when he turned, with flushed face n
and flashing eyes. j
"It were better for you, John Fer- \
rier," he thundered, "that you were (,
now lying blanched skeletons upon j
the Sierra, lllnnca. than that von .
should j>ut your weak wills against f
the orders of the lloly Four!" n
With a threatening gesture of his jhand
ho turned from the door, and
Forrier hear his heavy step
serunehing along the shingly path.
ITe was still sitting with his elbows
upon his knees, considering how he *
should broach the matter to his c
daughter, when a soft hand was laid (
upon his, and looking up, he saw her 1
standing beside him. One glance at 1
her pale, frightened face showed him ^
that she had heard what had passed. 1
"I could not help it," she said, in r
answer to his look. "His voice rang (
through the house. Oh, father! fath- *
er! what shall we do?'
"Don't you scare yourself," he an- 1
swered, drawing her to him and pass- 1
ing his broad, rough hand caressingly (
over her chestnut hair. "We'll tlx i
it up somehow or another. You don't I
find your fancy kind o' lessening for t
this chap, do you?" 1
A sob and a squeeze of his hand 1
was her only answer. i
"No; of course not. T shouldn't care i
to hear you say you did. lie's a <
likely lad, and he's a Christian, which <
is more than these folks are, in spite
o' all their praying and preaching.

him a message letting him know the i
hole wo are in. If I know anything o' |
that young man, he'll be bark hero ]
with a speed that would whip electro- 1
telegraphs." <
Lucy laughed through her tears at \
her father's description. I
"When ho comes he will advise us
for the best. But it is for you that I
am frightened dear. One hears?one (
hears such dreadful stories about .
those who oppose the prophet; some- ,
thing terrible always happens to
them."
'.But we haven't opposed him yet,"
her father answered. "It will bo timo
to look out for squalls when wo do.
We have a clear month before us; at '
the end of that I guess we had best (
skin out of Utah."
"Leave Utah?"
"That's about the size of it.'"
"But tho farm?"
"Wo will raise as much as wo can
in money, and let tho rest go. To toll
tho truth, Buoy, it isn't tho first time
T havo thought of doing it. I don't
oaro about knuckling undor any man,
as thoso folks do to thoir darnod
prophet. I'm a free-born American,
and it's all now to me. Guess I'm too
old to learn. If ho comes browsing
I about' this farm ho might ehanoo to
run up against a charge of buckshot
traveling in tho opposite direction."
"But they won't lot us leave," his
daughter objected.
"Wait till Jefferson comes and wo
will manage that. In the meantime,
don't you fret yourself, my dearie,
and don't get your eyes swelled up, or
else he'll bo walking into mo when ho
Rees you. There's nothing to be

resident in November was: Wilson,

ressive, 13,230; Taft, Republican,
,150. Mr. Pattangall, tlie Demoratic
candidate, gave out the fol>wing
statement:
"From tlie returns, which I have
eceived, I should judge that Mr.
ohn A. Peters was elected to Conress
from this district by a plurality
f 30 0 to 4 00 in a total vote of about
5,000.
"Tho result should not be contrued
as a rebuke to tho National
dministratlon. It is wholly to bo
ttributed to Democratic treachery,
locause certain men failed of success
i tho primaries they deliberately
acrificed tho party in this election,
lie Democracy of Maine is loyal to
'resident Wilson and will present a
nited front in the next Presidential
ampaign.
"Personally I want to thank the
.",000 Democratic voters who suported
me at the polls and to thank,
s well, the State and national Delocracy
for the part each took in th(>
ampaign. We all make the best
ght we were capable of making, and.
rhile the result is disappointing, we
re not discouraged, and only temorarily
defeated."
Republican leaders were jubilant
ver their success, in view of the
Ight waged by the National Adminst
ration to capture the district. Mr.

Halbert P. Gardner, member of

The election, made necessary by

Near British Coast.
Mayor Gaynor, of Now York, died
on the steamer Baltic at 0110 o'clock
Wednesday afternoon, when about
200 miles of his destination, according
to a cablegram received in New
York from Rufus W. Gaynor, his son.
Mayor Gaynor sailed away from
New York on the morning of September
*1, on the Baltic. An hour before
ho sailed but one man, his secretary,
knew of his plans, outside of
members of his immediate family.
The mayor's announced purpose was
a brief vacation on the ocean. lie

to health.
