tudes," but they are not these. These
have in themselves their. own reward.
They who possess them are not merely
promised blessedness in the future; they
are declared to be already blessed in the
present.
This "Sermon on the Mount may be
considered as true description and def
inition of Christian discipleship and of
the felicity of those who possess and
manifest these traits. They are said to
be ''the salt of the earth and "the light
of the world" They keep it pure and
they furnish it with illumination.
Religion gives a healthy tone to the
moral atmosphere, and preserves society
from decay. 1t enlitens and adorns all
life, and makes every faithful Christian
beneficent power among men. 1t is not
only the lofty or the learned who are
its best examples. GA little child, a
meek maiden, humble laborer, may be
as true bearer of the SAVIOR and the ra-
dance of Jesus Christ, as an anointed
priest before the altar, or an ordained
preacher in the pulpit" Oykes.)
PRACTICAL SUGGESTIONS.
1. There is a natural and logical order
in the development of true Christian
character
A man in poor spirit, under sense of
moral unworthyness, will be a mourner
over his sinfulneSS, and such mourning
will lead to meekneSs. This will natur-
ally awaken strong desire like hunger and
thirst, after real spiritual goodness. A
sense of ones own need of mercy will
lead to a merciful spirit towards others.
Purity or sincerity of heart will naturally
follow the preceding steps, and a sense
of the bleSsedness of communion with
God will lead the believer to desire that
all his fellowmen shall be at peace with
God. If his efforts to promote this, sub
ject him to persecution, he is able to en-
dure it and glorify God in it.
2. God has spoken to men from three
mountains, Sinai, .Hattin and Calvary.
The utteranceS of each are individually
significant, yet strangely concordant. We
are taught the majesty and purity of the
Law, the value of the Attonement, and the
blessednesS of the justified believer ST.
mai is needful for our first teaching, Cal
vary for our second lesson, and the Ser
mon on the Mount" completes the in
struction by which "we are made wise
unto salvation"
3. To be poor in spirit is by no means
to be mean in spirit.
That which is base by nature is not
made noble by religion.
+. MeeknesS is not cowardice
Never be afraid to do right. 'The
righteous is bold as lion"
5. There is a hunger and thirst of the
soul as well as the body.
God can satisfy the one as well as the
other. "Man cannot live by bread alone. "
Christ is ''the living bread which came
down from heaven"
D. 10 OBTAIN mercy we must be ready
to show mercy.
7. A pure and holy God cannot look up
on sin, save with adherence.
But believing and forgiven sinner is
permitted to see God.
8. First, purity then, peace.
8. Those who are canonized in Christ's
kingdom must be willing to be canon
AIDED for Christ's kingdom. aLa|
10. Nothing is more worthless than

twelvemonth hence. The leaders of
the opposition are wreckers and
those who try TO destroy Isther than
save and build up. The simple fact
that they are against man is enough
to convince the majority OF people
that it is proper to favor him. Gov

tilted with the territory, is getting in
terestsd in its advancement, and will
probably make this his home, whether
he be given the governorship or not.

bilious carpet-bagger from abroad,
who happens to be out of situation,

The HERALD ia nov publishing ex-
tracts from the irrigation laws of our
neigh50r Colorado. The irrigation
systsm OF the Centennial sse IS one
of the bsst 10 be found, and as the
circumstances and conditions there
are nuoh Ike those Of this territory,
the local Legislature will doubtless be
able to gather some hints from the
Colorado laws that will be valuable in
framing acts on thu subject for Utah.
Everybody here must appreciate tae
Importance Of having good and wise
laws for the regulation and distribu-
ton Of water, and no subject that viii

present session can deserve higher St
tent,on tran the mater of irrigation.
Whatever irrigation laws shall be

Of water rights. Sd as to lessen the

some of the evils that come up dur

should be done.
