" Shall Meet all the Little Ones There.n
Words and music by VIII L. Thompson, of East
Ohio. Although all our little ones are
graciously spared in the editorial home, we must
to a breakdown in tears when trying to
sing these touching words. The song is an inspir-
alton of comfort, surely, to all whose homes have
been invaded by death. IT is one of the few COM
positions which will live for generations. To all
lovers of music, we say, send 40 cents to the author
and bless the household by a copy of this gem.

The twenty-eight hour walk came off
at our "Saw Dust church, according to
announcement OF large bills and small
programmes, commencing promptly on
Friday at Z p. M. There were five en-
tries as follows: Stewart of Richmond,
Ind, Acton of Eaton, Pottle of Dayton,
and Duffey and Putt, of Middletown.
During the first ten or twelve hours the
race was interesting and exciting, but af-
ter that hour the contest began to drag
and become monotonous, because it was
then virtually decided. Putt went off a
used up man when he had made only 43
miles and l3 laps, and Duffey at 80 miles
and laps, leaving Stewart, Acton and
Pottle in the contest, with Stewart sufi-
GENTLY ahead for the first prize, Acton
for the second and Pottle third. So they
walked and SO it ended. 1t was an easy
victory for Stewart and was like walking
to a funeral. He quit two and a hal
hours before the time, making 81 miles

who had the management of this affail

Truth Is Mighty.

AS the little leaven hid in the mea-
sure of meal, made all leaven, so truth
gradually oyercomes all doubt and dis
belief. When DR.. Pierce, of Buffalo,
N. Y. announced that his Favorite
Prescription would positively cu e
the many'diseases and weaknesses PEI
culiar. to women, some doubted, and
confined to employ the harsh and
caustic local treatment. But the
mighty truth gradually became ack-
noWledged. Thousands of ladies who
had usolessly undergone untold tor.
lures at the hands of different physi
clans, employed the Favorite Prescrip.
ton, and were speedily cured. Many
physicians now prescribe it in theil
practice. So sanguine is DR.. Pierce o.
of its power to cure, that he now sells
it through druggists under a positive
guarantee.

and believed and practiced that his services |
in the cause of the African entltle him to
reconstruct the domestic affairs of the peo |
pie in a manner to suit himself. And,
finally, we come to him with the Hyperion
curls, the front of JoYe, Lord Roscoe
CoukliDg.
Here is a man who has been nothing if
not loyal. His voice has been irst, last
aud always for the African. He has re-
sisted foot to foot and breast to breast the
advance-since the war-of the traitorous
Southrons. Who, Louder than he, has
howled defiance at the rebel hosts and
made the zenith tremble With his words OF
cheer? Not one; and, therefore, has not
he the right to arrange to care for the do
nestle affairs of his neighbors? Most
assuredly. 1t is for this graud reason that
he assumed to regulate the married sta
tus of Mr.. Sprague. He did it from the
lofty height of his political convictions; and
from the republican standpoint he did no
more than what he had perfect right TO
do.
There are 10 Salt Lake City twelve po-
lygamous families; there are in Washing
ton several hundred female clerks who
are the mistresses Of republican officials.
The former is deadly stain upon the
morals Of the country ands the thing must
be suppressed. Evarts calls upon foreign
governments to aid him in putting an end
to this horrible condition, in which man
has three wives and no mistresses, in order
that there may be substituted for it the
Conkling system. in which there are de-
serted wife and dozen mistresses. Mr.,
Hayes announces from Washington that
the thing has got to be done; and there
, upon the Beechers and Conkfngs roll up
their eyes in holy gratitude for the exis-
tence of the party which has the irmnes'
. and the moral tone necessary to projec
and carry out such glorious reforms.
Polygamy ought to be Suppressed; anC
D so had the harems of republican congress
, men and other officials at Washington
Hayes is right in announcing that he Ii
@ going to commence an the much married
Saints; at the same time he might d.
: something to put down the much-mistress
d ed loyalists of his own party. The Hebers
g Youngs and Kimballs should be extin
O guished, and so should those rotten knaye
and bypocrites, Conkling, Cameron
Beecher and other leaders in the republi
o can rauks, If he is going to regulate tn
b number of wives a maH may have, let hin

d tresses who shall be supported by republi
