My Dear Brother, I am in the field,
and well. A general besieging an
other once said to the one besieged,
"-Why don't you come out and fight
me?" The other replied, "Why
don't you force me to come out and
Sghtyou?"
I have been told by several that
you have said, "I debated or review
ed Elder Sbockey and he would not
reply;" also, that you Jump Univer
saliBm in my behalf, and close by Bay
ing "I am not afraid of old mau
Shockey," which I hope i9 true, for I
am sure I hope to do nothing to cause
any man to be afraid of me. This I
deem sufficient apology for Intruding
your sanctum.
Therefore I propose that you, or
anyone you wish or can get, discuss
with me at Brownville, Bay the IaBt
week in September next, the fairly
stated issues of religion between us,
viz.:
1. The Bible teaoheB that they who
live and die impenitent shall endure
endless punishment. You affirm I
deny.
2. The Bible teaohet that in due
time all mankind shall be holy and
happy. I affirm you deny.
3. The Bible teaches that immer
sion is essential to future salvation.
You affirm I deny.
I courteously invite your early at
tention to this important matter. I
am sure if you Bay, to be wrong in
life Eubjects to endless punishment,
you- ought to leave naught undone,
j-ou could do to avert the awful ca
lamity. And I am equally sure that
anyone believing it Buffers incompre
hensibly through life, and I feel solic
itous that any and all be eaved from
6uch suffering.
Pleat-e duly recognize a most phi
lanthropic object. I am the only
Universalist preacher in this State,
and pray for the deliverance of the
loat. Respectfully and truly yours,
War. P. Shockey.

Dear Sir: Your letter of date July
23d is received, contents noted. In
reply I will say, first, that I believe
that where two religious denomina
tions live in the samo Ircalily and are
having influence over the minds of
the people, thata fair, honest discussion
will always result In good, but as far
as universalism is concerned I do not
think it profitable to discuss the dif
ference between us, especially in this
plane. There Is no church in this
county, and I don't know of a Uni
verbalistchurohin the State, and you
Bay that you are the only praolitr of
that order in the Ptate. I fpel sorry
for you in 3'our lonely condition and
verily believe that you are trying to
build up a theory that must ultimate
ly be destroyed, and should the time
eome that yu do pucceed in establish
ing such a theory, then me or my
Brethren will be willing to meet you,
hut as yet we think it is not needed
and therefore decline the offer.
I remain ns ever, your friend, and
wish that we may both of us so con
duct nurselve? In this life that we
may ultimately enjoy eternal life.

Dear Brother, from your position
of declination to meet or have me
met, in disoussion, I delayed reply
and waited new developments.
As some whiskers by your friends
indicate I have "backed down,' I
just say that I demand of you to ar
range to meet me In open and fair dis
cussion of the above propositions.
Give me from one to three week's
notice, and I will be ready to attend
to it in a manly and christian manner.
I.am respectfully thine,

Peru, Nebraska,
Nov. 25, 1878.
Editor Advertiser.
'Twas Monday morning. I rose
bright and early with the thought of
going to Peru on my mind. I went
down town and after hunting some
thing to read while on the train, I re
paired to the depot, aud after waiting
sometime succeeded in getting start
ed. I had just got deeply interested
in reading the Progress when we
came to a sudden stop! Had I arrived
there already ? No. 'Twas the "water-tank.
"' Presently we started again
and settled myself to read- In scarce
ly a half hour more I arrived at Peru.
I sprang from the traiu meeting the
"Major's family" Col. Tom and wife
were taking the train for the East
also Mr. M. J. Fenn, the genial editor
of the Herald, (he was taking the
train); we grasped hands and shook,
and talked a few seconds, when the
train started and we parted. But a
few steps took me to the long street
leading up town. I first stopped at
the poBtoflice. There I met Johnny
Majors all Brownville knows John
ny he is thedeputy postmaster. And
after registering at the hotel, wended
my way to the Herald office. There
I found some of the boyB "settin" 'em
up," while others were "working 'em
off" on a new "fangled press" very
much unlike the one I have been used
to working In the Advertiser office
it doesn't work so fast. Ab I was
onjmy way to the Herald, I met Da
vid Campbell who formerly wob a olt
Izen of Brownville.
After dinner I took a ramble tbrou'
the city. Peru, like Brownville and
most Missouri river towns is situated
among tbe bills, and has a population
of about six hundred. As you enter
the town from the south, the first
building that greets the eye is the
State Normal School. It is situated
on a beautiful plateau on the south
side of town and can be Been for miles
around. My attention was next at
tracted by the new Baptist Church,
which is now being finished. It is
situated at the corner of one of the
principal streets. We would like to
say thesame of Peru as of Brownville:
that its streets are orowded with teams
and it6 stores thronging with busi
ness, but on the whole it is very
quiet. The grain buyers are filliug
up their cribs with corn at fifteen
centB per bushel. Lee.

Thanksgiving.
Thanksgiving day was instituted by
the Pilgrims at Plymouth as a day of
fasting, thanksgiving, and prayer, in
memory of the bountiful crops gath
ered at their first harvest, in 1621.
Occasional days of thanksgiving were
held from then until 1680, when it be
came an annual custom iu Massachu
setts, and they were frequeut in other
colonies, often at different seasons
aud for various purposes, asYfur the
safe arrival of ships after dangerous
voyages, or for victories over the In
dians. Thanksgiving Day was a na
tional institution throughout the rev
olutionary war but there was no na
tional appointment after the general
thanksgiving for peace in 1784, until
President Washington recommended
one in 1789, for the udoptiou of ttie
Constitution. There were other offic
ial appointments for national thanks
giving, in 1795 for the suppression of
an insurrection, and iu 1815 for the
successful termination of the secoi'd
war with Great Britain. It early be
came one of the most prominent holi
days throughout New England: in
other sections It was frequently ob
served locally, and by some religious
bodies. The Governor of New York
has annually recommended a day of
thanksgiving since 1817. Proclama
tions for the observance of the day
were made hy tbe Governor of Vir
ginia in 1855, and in eight Southern
States in 1858. President Lincoln is
sued proclamations recommending
days of special thanksgiving for vic
tories in 1862-3 and in 1S63 4 for the
annual observance of the day by the
nation; since which time the Presi
dent has ipsued such a proclamation
annually, supplemented by one from
the Gsvernnrs of many of the states.
Year by year the day Is becoming n
truly national festival, avd especially
where New England blood and senti
menthave made themselves manifest.
Tt Is a day, too. whleh should hpeoree
national In every spnse. as no other
nation, a a nation, has grenter rpaoon

good, for llhertv and progress, than

' Mormon lYomen in Convention.
Mormon women, who adhere to the
doctrine of polj'gamy held a meeting
in Salt Lake City, recently, as a coun
ter movement to the crusade now be
ing made by the "gentile" women of
Utah. The following is a sj'uopsis of
some of the speeches made: Miss
Suow said :
Wo are saints of the living God.
We have been persecuted and driven
from pluce to place, and misrepresent
ed from time to time. We want to
explain that we are loyal American
citizens and we claim protection from
the government under which we live
to practice our religion, and aasisl
witii our labors to make this noil our
homes. We claim this uuder God
and the Constitution of the United
States, as it has been revealed by God.
and we have the right to believe as
we pleabe, and to listen to the voice of
God when He speaks, to keep His
commandments, as He has revealed
them unto us ; to believe that he has
raised up' a prophet, and to practice
the dictates of conscience. Inasmuch
as one of these pjinciplei ! jen pa
sailed, we e!tiliutbe rlgut to express
our views on this subject.
Before plural marriage was reveal
ed, we were driven from our homes
and massacred, and uot one of the
murderers has been brought to jus
tice. 1 believe in plural marriage as much
as I believe iu anything that is sacred
and that it will suve the human fam
ily from corruption; that it would be a
higher honor to a nation aud to the
family, and Congress would be nobler
and higher loan one compobed of mo
uogumiots. It tends to virtue and ho-Itne.-s,
aud whoever repieseuts the
women of these marriage as degrad-
eu, aedire to nriug evu upon us, or
they know not what they do, I depre
cate the false and odious standing and
character, und I view with pity aud
commiseration those who are banded
together in our midst to destroy the
most sacred relation between men aud
women, husband ami wives, to make
children bastards, aud trample upon
the most sacred of the affections of
the human heart. They seem as if
they wauted to measure arms with
the Almighty. 1 don't feel any re
venge against them, they are with
God, "Vengeance is mine, I will r
pay. saith the Lord." Amen.
The next speaker was a widow of
the late George A. Smith, Biigham's
first counselor, who read a written ad
dress. She said the movemeut that
was being made against celestial mar
riage was a orusade against their sa
cred religion, and that lawyers had
no more right to interfere with plural
marriage than with baptism by im
mersion. Mrs. ZinaD. Young, before referred
to.ondoncea wi'e of Joseph Smith
next addressed them. She said she
was the daughter, and had been the
wife, of a Master Mason. That if
polygam3' wa practiced there would
be no more ruined women That the
eternal aim of the Almighty waB with
plural marriage, and that the women
who believed in it honored God bv
their virtue. That the mormon
church was an organization of the
Godn. and that it kept their daughter3
from the corrupting influences of the
world. That she bad no animosity
no hardness of heart against the wo
men of this crusade.
Mis. Auua T. Cain was the next
speaker. Slio said she had been
brought up very strictly und virtu
ously in England ; that she had al
wuys heard of the laud of the free ;
that anybody could practice any re
ligion they saw tit, that she desired to
come here, and lid, to see this Eldo
rado (but us Bbe used her h's, it sound
ed as if bbe Buid this Heldnrado).
That she bad been in the churoh
twenty-eight years, hut she would
uot give up what Mormonism had
done for her Tor Queen Victoria's
wealth, and God being my helper, I
am going to live my religion, for I
know It Is full of glory and immor
tality. Mrs. Bishop Smoot, of provo, was
the next. She is the Bishop's first
wife. She gave her testimony to the
everlasting Gospel and to the work of
tho living God. and she wanted tossy
that thirf baneful and distasteful ulcer
this plurality of wives, was from God.

of polygamy she thought It was a he

it was from Him, and she knew it
