Ferris Told ot the Mormons in His Sermon Last Night. TO UNSEAT SENATOR. Declared that One of Nations Greatest Peril was Indifference to Questions Until it was Too Late—W. C. T. U. was Present—Sermon was of Much Interest and Timely. Rev. Percy R. Ferris, pastor of the Baptist church, preached on the sub ject of Mormonism last night. There was a large congregation present, in cluding the members of the local branch of tne Women’s Christian Temperance Union. During the ser mon, the pnstor told of some of his experiences while in Salt Lake City, Utah, last February. His words were listened to with a great deal of inter est and created a deep impression upon those who heard. Mr. Ferris took his text _ from the first verse of the third chapter of Second Timothy. “This know also, that in the last days, perilous times shall come.’’ He first dwelt upon the evils of the day and said one of the greatest perils to the American nation was the indifference shown by the people until it was too late. He then urged his hearers to take up the fight against mormonism before that organ ization became too powerful to be overcome. Mr. Ferris told of being at the min ister’s conference in Salt Lake City, where the petition against the seating of Reed Smoot ns United States Sen ator from Utah, was first taken up. He told of the earnestness of the men there and how they declared that with earnest support of Christians through out the country they could win their fight. Mr. Ferris declared that no religion which supported sin, such as polygamy was, could be a Christian religion and it was wrong in the sight of God. He admitted that in his country every man, whether Jew or Gentile, Catholic or Protestant, had a right to worship God as he saw fit, but the minister pointed out that mormonism was not a religion of God, and therefore it could not be classed with the others. The grounds upon which the min isters of Salt Lake City want Mr. Smoot unseated in the Senate, Mr. Ferris said, were that he was a polyg amist and was therefore a violator of the laws of the State which he is supposed to represent in the national congress. When Utah was admitted as a State it was forced to pass a law prohibiting polygamy. One minister at the Utah conference declared that he could prove Mr. Smoot was a polygamist. It is pointed out that a violator of the State law should not be allowed a seat in the national legislature. Mr. Smoot’s friends claim he is not a polygamist. The second ground for opposing Mr. Smoot is that his first allegiance is to his church and hie country second. All Mormon apostles, of which he is one, take such an oath. Mr. Ferris said that the movement to unseat Mr. Smoot was in charge of the W. C. T. TJ. all over the country and a united effort was being made to flood congress with petitions and private letters showing the popular feeling in the matter. He urged the people oi rertn Amuoy to ao wnai they could, recommending private letters addressed to Senators Kean and Dryden. A solo by F. R. Conklin, “Lead Kindly Light, ” at the close of the service, was a pleasing feature. A Dangerous Experiment. It is dangerous to experiment with some unknown preparation when you have a cough or cold.
