The following statement of VIM. j.

markable that we beg to ask tor it the

The STRAIGHT Of L.

The Old National Pike.

When Gen. Jackson, in 1929,
iourneyed from Nashville to Wash
ington to take his seat as president
of the United States, he travelled by
stage. coach over the old national
pike that led over the Alleghanies
In the palmy days of coaching no
post road in the country did so large
a business as this splendid old high
way, which opened the west and
southwest to the east. The wagons
were so numerous that the leaders
of one team had their noses in the
trough at the end of the next wagon
ahead; and the coaches, drawn by
four or six horses, dashed along at
a rate which would have made an
English coachman Of the day mad
with envy. Beside the coaches and
wagons, there were gentlemen trav
cling singly on horseback, with all
the accoutrements of their journey
packed in saddle bags, and there
were immense droves of sheep and
herds of cattle raising clouds OF
dust along their path.

assassination of Joseph Smith was
no proof, one way or another, as TO
the divine nature of his authority:
neither will the rejection ofthe doc
trines he taught prove them wrong.
If they are true, though he was
slain, his followers mobbed, driven
and prosecuted, yet in the end they
will lise triumphant over everv
obstacle and grow stronger and
stronger, as error will grow weaker
and weaker
In presenting the principles of
pre- existence, the first principles OF
the gospel and baptism for the dead,
we shall simply quote scripture, and
We again state that If there is any
difference, it is between the reader
and holy writ The Apostle PauPs
injunction to the Thessalonians
was; "Prove all things; hold fast
that which is good" and the wise
man Soloman's assertion was: ale
that judgeth a matter before he
heareth Il, is not wIse." Let us
then refer to the ord of he Lord,
which is the end of argument, and
see what the teachings of the creator
of all are. Spea ing to Job, one OF
the most ancient writer's of the bi
ble, he says: "Who is his that
darkeneth counsel by words without
knowiedgeS Gird up thy loins like
a man; for will demand OF thee,
and answer thou me. Where vast

very well knew when He admins
tered this reproof t at savors OF
irony.-MoS.
+ Job certainly must have been
somewhere when the foundations
of the earth were laid" or why the
question? There were doubtless
more meanings to the words "when
all the sons of God shouted for Joy"
than one at first isupposes. The
reader asks, who wee the sons OF
godi THE angels.-Nl Luke in
giving the genealogy of the human
family gives information on this
subject: (which was the son of
Enos, which was the son of Seth,
which was the son of Adam, which
was the son of God" One of the
ancient writer's says "Thsn shall
the dust return to the earth and the

A Lively Criticism,

The following musical criticism
from an Aurora (Ill.) paper is full
of strong contemporaneous human
interest:
"The Kellogg concert, as might
have been anticipated, was largely
attended. The dollar freeze out
was rather rough on the hoodlums,
but the audience managed to exist
without the customary war whoops.
The divine Louise was as resonant
as usual, which, by the way, she
ought to be, being well seasoned

evidently not, like wine, improved

up stairs near the skyhght, while
the lower register is closed for re-

formed her grand triple act of sing
ing, rolling the eyes and talking to
some one in the wings at once.
Her smiles at the audience were
calm, but determined, but her
smiles at the "feller' hid behind

she condescended to pay any at

All of us who have not been there
expect some day to go to Europe,
and this always makes an item about
the expense of trip to Europe a
matter of interest. A Detroiter,
who has "been thar" several times,
shows how three months tour of
the continent can be made for $174.
Here is his estimate: Passage,
second cabin, $40; Liverpool to
London, $4; London to Paris, 81;
Paris to Vienna, $Il; total, 500; re
turn, $50; which makes $118 paid

In the midst of the christian

set forth the belief of the Latter

they may differ widely from the &C

we may be allowed to mildly sug-

and it is doubtful if a more successful
family ever removed TO this state.
