us and be friendly, what will be the rcsult?-

They may fatter as long as the earth stands. but never will be subject to one of their damn ed pusllanimous curses They may court and fiatter us as much as they please, but never will be subject to them again, no, never Do you hear it? Voice, Yes. Do you think we will submit to them: No, never. They have cut the rhread themselves
 You are the people who have the privilege to acknowledge Br. Brigham as our Governor and continue him in office; and you also have the privilege, through your agency, to reiec, him. If you please, but it will be to your con- demnation if you do, because he has got the keys ot the kingdom, and the very moment you reject him you cut yourselves off from the right of the priesthood
 lwlIl now bring up comparison. I live il the city of Great Salt Lake. I am father, 8 husband, benelactor to between sixty and seventy subjects; feed them; I cothe them and they do not have a pin, drink of tea, o anything but what 1 provide; I provide them houses to live in and beds to sleep on. Bu suppose that by and by some stranger come: along, and my family say to him, "B Br. Hebe Is good man, but the other man comes with smiling face and my family take him and re Ject me-what have they done? If they reject me, they reject their head, and by so doing they destroy their heirship to the head or limb to which they are lawfully connected. Is not that so?
 Suppose you acknowledge the man reported to De coming, what do you do? You reject your head, and if so, where is the body, and what will become of it.
 l will compare it to my body. Supposins the head Is cast away, the body mill die, won' It! Yes, and you will die just as quick as that II you reject brother Brigham, our head.
 We are the people of Desert she shall be de. seret, shall be no more Utan; we will have oul own name. Do you hear it?
 Brethren and sisters, these ideas are comfort. ing to all of you, they are most glorously con- iortngto me. l tell you the feelings within me are glorious.
 We are the people of Deseret, and it is for us to say whether we will have brother Brigham Tor our Governor, or those poor, miserable devil. they are reported to be trying to bring here- You must know they are miserable devils to have to come here under arms, but they shal not rule over us nor come into this territory.
 " nat do you Say aboutit? Are you willing as people, that they should come in here?- You that say they shall not, raise your rIgh1 hands. (All hands is raised)
 MT. Gentle, won'ty you tell of this to your co. workers for the devils kingdom?
 The reason that talk as l do is because don't hold any office in the United States; but thls people, sometime ago, appointed me Chic Justice ot the state of Deseret and br. John Taylor and Bishop N. R. Whitney as may as soclates. You also appointed me Lieutenant Governor a"ayS told you was going to be Lieutenant Governor
 lhls Is stump speech.
 We are going to have our own Governor from henceiorth. Brigham Young was then our Go. vernon Heber C. kimbal was Chief Justice and Lieutenant Governor. 1 Was big man then; felt as big as Br. Morley does in tn, Legislature. The fact is lie dce, not under stands more than I do
 It IS for Us to say, according to our rights un. der the Constitution, whether we will have those cursed GentlIes to rule over us or not
 want you to publish this, Mr. Elitor
 am glvlng you little of my feelings. for I want you to know that you are under no more obligation to receive those men than Br Brig hams family Is to receive another man. and to reject hm as their husband, their father tbei, friend and benefactor.
 know that what have said has informed many of your minds, and choose to present my ideas by com. .arson.
 l have rlLht to Say the Genties shall never rule over me, although this people might admit "i thelr coming here. 1 have a right to sa, also, that we shall never be ruled over by then from this day forth, while grass grows or wate, runs; never, no never. Voices, "Amcn."1
 Well, we have got to sustain these amen. and We have got to sustain these VOWS. You ladies, too, will certainly have to do your part or back out. told you last Sunday to arm yourselves, and if you cannot do it any othe, way, sell some of your fine bonnets fine dres 5es, and buy yourselves a good dirk, d pistol oI some onher instrument of war
 Arm your boys and ann yourselves univer sally, and that too, with the weapons of war Tor we may be brought to the test, to see if wt will stand up to the line
 never knew 1t to fail, when men made CO., venants but they were brught to the test to SC, ii they would live up to them.
 This people have made covenants, they hay, made VOWS, and they have been instructed h, Brother Brigham, and he has told them tha these covenants and penalties are true and faith. iul, and say they are as true as the Lord Go, Dveth, and the day will come that YOU will have to fulfill those VOWS and covenants tha you have made and not one word shall fail
 have told you of 1t, and have backed ii up when others have said it. Now. mark if ro, God will drive us to it. These instructions oiv. en to us from time to time, will have to be car nep out and fulfilled, for just know that YOU have got to reap that which is sown. Ii vo SOW to the spirit, you will reap life everlasting but Il you sow to the tle6h we shall reap cor ruption, and the bed that we make, we have got to he in Now will tell you another thin. that DparS heavily IL any other thing, and that is for this people to live thelr religion, and do as they are told.
 l will ask you this question, gentlemen and ladies, can you live your religion except you dC as your are told? 1 have said again and agair that II we will live our religion and do as we are told, those men will never come over these mountalns, for we shall slay the poor devils be- fore they get there.
 l do not know of any religion except doing a. am told, and if you do, you have learnec something that have never learned. Yor have Governor here to dictate to you and tel you what to do and if we will live our religion we are always safe, are we not?
 There are great many that will not live the religion, for they think they belong to the aris tocracy; but understand, gentlemen and ladies that withdraw from that society. 1 told you idoC ouHIdv lildt or all tue corrupt beings Ul lOT the face ot the earth the present aristocracy art the worst.
 am pretty ragged fellow, and valiant fo the truth; and may the Lord make evervbnd, like me, that we may stand aga>t our enemies Tor the corruptest devils on the earth are tn, present arlStocracy
 Let Us go to work and lav up our gain, Ia, up wheat and everything that will aud that cal be preserved, and in doing we will save our selves from sorrow, pain and anguish, and the Lord will give law and a word for us tc abide, and he will cut off our enemies; and i every man and woman will go to work, lay ul their grain, and do as they are told, the Lort will hold off our enemies from us until We ca, lay up sufficient store for ourselves
 This IS part of our religion, to lay upstore. and provide for ourselves, and for the surround ing country, for the day is near when they vii come by thousands and by millions with thei fineries to get little bread; that time is righ by our door.
 Brother Stewart says he has discovered tha this work is five years ahead of what he hac supposed; let me tell you that this people art more than ten years ahead of what they sup
