Church house, July 18. "wware of rl prophtu, which come la jru In ihMn'a clothing, but Inwardly the 7 are riven In wolrr. Matlhw 7' It, We shall all agree that right views about reliarion are verv imoortant. Af ter living many years in Utah, where the majority of the people are mor mormons, - mons, mormons, I feel able to till something of tne aoctnnea anu practices of this false religion. And as I learn that the mormons are sending their mis missionaries - sionaries missionaries into this region to convert ou from Christianity to mormonistn, am hero to sound a note of alarm. I have here to ear to vou first of all that the so-called mormon elders, who are at work attempting to proselyte Christian people, are acting the part of wolves in sheep's clothing. They do not tell the real doctrines of mor- monisra nor reveal its practical work ings. Thousands of poor people have been deceived by them anu have gone to Utah only to meet bitter disap disappointment, - pointment, disappointment, and thousands more who have started out to follow these falso uides have found that they did not now what they were doing. In the first place, tho mormon doc trines are very different from those suggested by the little card which the mormon elders distnbuto from house to house. For instance, the first ar ticle roads, "Wo believe in God, tho eternal Father, and in his son, Jesus Christ, and in the Holy Ghost, Any Christian might say the same, but the question is what do they believe about Uou and about (Jurist and about the Holy Ghost. Tho Mohammedans be lieve in God and in Jesus Christ and in the Bible oven, but they also be believe - lieve believe iu the Koran, and the teachings of the Koran practically set aside the teachings ot the Bible, bo the mor mormons, - mons, mormons, though they claim to believe in the Bible, beliovo also in the Book of Mormon, which in a fraud and a cheat, and in what they call the pres ent day revelations, so that the head men of the mormon church olaitn the right anr day to sot aside the teach teachings - ings teachings of tne Bible. The Mormons believe in a Ood who who is only an exalted man, a God who has tlesh and. who is really no other than Adam. That is what Jo Joseph - seph Joseph Smith and Brigham Young both taught, anu what is taught today. I hay believe in Jesus (Jurist as a man. lbov claim that he had three wives when he lived in in this world. They say that Christ and God are two persons, in me same sense that John and Peter are two persons. And when they say they believe in the Holy Spirit, they teach that it is nothing but a form of electricity. Another ot their doctrines is that men cannot help sinning. In their catechism stands this question, "Was it necessary that Adam partake of the forbidden fruit!" "Yes' "Did Adam and Eve lament or rejoicet They re joicod with exceeding great joy. Another doctrine is that the mor mormon - mon mormon priests or head men are a part of God and have the right to control the people in all things, spiritual or tem poral. They claim the right to direct what business a man shall enter, and how many wives be shall have. In investigating the practices of mormons, we must remember that mormonism has only been in existence u tihort time. The people who are mormous today have been greatly in influenced - fluenced influenced by tho Bible and they are not yet as bad as their children win be who are brought up ou tnormouistn by it itself. - self. itself. I can only mention one or two points. One is that tho priests control absolutely the politics ot thoir people. I Another is that thoy teach that it is a ' man s uuiy 10 uavo as many wivoa as ue 1 sxlmjtt Hundreds of sad-faced UYmiminiavhnHfwnuiTItnliivlirisnlinii I . f 1 1 Ti . t 1 pines? is destroyed by this teaching. 1 example 01 mis sensuality on , ....."t Z, n. r.. .n

It is said that one or two men who had promistd horses for the Penni Penni-man - man Penni-man excursion took advantage of his necessity at the last moment to put up tho price. Such conduct will surely react against a man and it will hurt all of us if Penniman is forcedto"give up these excursions or to have thorn start from some other point than Berea. The excursion yielded no profit last year, and is likely to bo little better thisyoar, but it is for tho good of this region to have the excursions made. They bring money here, and it ia a good thing to hare some folks from the cities make friends with our peo ple and learn about the beauties and the rosouroesof our mountains. Convention.
