HONEST AND CHRISTIAN MEN WANTED IN
POLITICS.
70 me Rdtf0r Of The Trtl


SIR: 1t is marvel to me that our American
men take little interest in politics They discuss
the questions of tho day their walnuts and their
wine but they don't get beyond discussing them. Fools
aud knaves particularly the knaves, throng our public
places and willing enough to partake Of the oaves
and the fishes, but few honest men, few gentlemen,
seem enough for their country TO he willing
put their hands to the pow Far the time
when celebrated political party took It's from the
initial letters OF It's motto We Hope In God" Nova
days politicians In general neither hope In God fear
God, nor keep His commandments. And TO think that
IL should be ut time like the present when,
mighty pressure OF country onward talent and
integrity strong minds and honest hearts, are more
needed to and shield her Very dttng,
very well deserved Is the Greek tdOtes from which the
English word idiot Is derived. signfyng q man who
takes no interest In politics. For there honest
among u.s. to be found without Diogenes and without
his lantern uniting the gentleman, tho scholar,
and the Christian. able, they were only willing,
up to the help Of tho nation and 10 make America
y and praise In the whole earth. But they will
not come, because politician has become word and
reproach, synonymous with every kind Of low dshOn-
esty SO much the are they needed like Hercules,
cleanse the Augean stables and to to the world
that be politician and yet keep his integrity.
that he be politician. and yet, like Bayard, be
without fear aud without reproach pure patriot an
iDconuptble statesman, an earnest, resOlute whole
souled Christian Oh, what glorious iuture might be
before us! GUINEA.

power exists, certainly 1t would have been recOg-
nized by so profound jurist.
If the power now claimed exists as to the States it
certainly does as to fsreign countries. Then, why
not fix by Congressional enactment the rate at
which wheat and cotton shall be carried to Liver
pool or to other foreign ports 7 Why not say that
tea coffee sugar, and other productions of foreign
countries shall only be brought here by American
vessels at price per ton to be fixed by Congress
Why not regulate the coastwiss trade in the same
way.
In the search for the right SO to regulatethe price
of transportation, it is said that Railway Companies
are common carriers, and, therefore, they are sub
ject to Congressional action. Express companies
are common carriers, and so steamboat and canal
companies, and so is the man who drives four-
horse team in the transportation of goods. Many Of
these companies charge very high for their services
but whoever dreamed of regulating them by Con-
gressional enactment
1t is also claimed by these searchers after power
that because the Parliament of Great Britain limits
the charges for freight and passage on railways,
Congress can do the same thing. They don't seem
to know that the railway companies of England
derive their charters from Parliament, and that
they contain this limitation. II is the contract be-
tween the Government and the companies, well
understood before a dollar is invested in making
road. Not so here Our railroad charters are de-
rived from the States and very few of them contain
any such limitation. When the provision is not in
the charter, even the State Legislatures inn
pose a restriction, because it would be in bad faith
and in violation Of the contract between the State
and those who furnished the money to make the
road II the State cannot do it, much less can il be
done by the General Government.
The truth is that neither those who made the Con-
sttution nor the great commentators on the powers
it confers, claimed, intmated that 80 vast
power exists in that instrument That it does so,
has only been revealed to the atter-day saints,
whose knowledge of constitutional law has been ac-
qured by listening to tho inspiring song whose

G. Todd Ford.

A large audience assembled on Wednes-
day evening, to hear this lecturer. Were
we desirous Of doing SO, # would be rather
difficult to give anything like review OF
the lecture itself. a purposeiy rambling
and humorous production. the incidents
OF trip to the far west were used as
nuclei around which to gather and relate
aseries of anecdotes and personal expe-
riences. The lecture itself was in the
main, good, but in many places the effect
of what would otherwise have been fine
passages, was marred by the faulty and
defective delivery of the speaker. Mr..
Ford can write well, but before he can
hope to attain any great distinction as
lecturer. he should take a course Of in
structions from some competent teacher
of elocution.

In calling the attention of our readers to
the advertisement of Vegetine in another
column, we have no doubt of its genuine
merit. The fact ofits being prescribed by
many of the best physicians of New Eng
land and recommended by the leading
Apothicaries of Boston, shows something
more than an ordinary interest in proprie-
tory medicines. So great is its chara cter
at home, that large quantities of Vegetine
made up in pyramidical forms. are the
staple of almost every druggists window
throughout the New England States. For
all the diseases for which Vegetine is rec
commended, it is the only medicine used
whef its merits have become known. We
welcome VegetiDe into our market, and
trust those who are suffering from disease
will give 1t fair trial for their complaints

OF the great painter, Sir Edwin Land

stNo English painter has been more popu-

OF his pictures he obtained $4,000 ($25, ,00O)
in addition to the original price of the pic
ture. 1t was a master stroke when the
publishers of The Christian at Work pre-
sented the triple combination of a mag
