PoLYeAMY Nor DYING OuT-The natural
instincts, the finer feelings attributed to
woman the world over, can not be found
among many of the Mormon girls If they
oppose polygamy themselves, they do not
pity their sisters who are SO unfortunate as
to embrace it. The daughters of polyga-
nous wives reject the plurality doctrine,
not because of its degradation or moral
wrong, but because they know the sorrow
of their mothers lives, and the increasing
lord and master Polygamy is not dying
out, as many fondly imagine.-[Salt Lake

China has for untold centuries acted upon
the tramp and communist idea of hostility
to railroads. telegraphs, labor.saving ma
chinery and other improvements. There
among one.fourth of the worlds people the
plan has had a fair trial, with what general
results all persons know. Chun Ian Pin
says the great number of characters In the
Chinese language renders tclegraphy i'm
possible, and they will not change their
system. He saysithe people are still diving
by almost mtilionsin the northwest provin-
ces from the famine and that railroads
would be of great benefit just now in con-
veying food. The railroad has been tried
and proved a failure. The people made
such riots that the government bought 1t up
at twice its value and destroyed it. Says
MI. Ian Pin: You see there is no present
prospect of our ever enjoying either o fthese
great Inventions" We wholly doubt if any
honest American laborers wish TO follow
the world old example of these charming
pagans.
