10 the w omen OF the United States.
DEAR SIsTERs:-For three years
past, we have been publishing the
Antj PolygaDey Standard, monthly
journal devoted to the object of sup
pressing polygamy in Utah and other
Territories of the United States.
During this period we have Iabored
under many disadvantages in not
having printing material and presses
of our own, yet IN spite of many dis
couragments and obstacles, working
right in the heart Of the enemy's
camp, we believe, we have succeeded in
arousing public opinion throughout
the country, against the monster
iniquity of the Mormon Church, and
the dangers which menaces the Re-
public in the constant spread of this
dire enemy to the unity and purity of
home. This labor we desire to con-
tinue until that vicious doctrine is
completely exterminated, and the
women now held in such revolving
chains, be loosed from their shackles.
To enable US to accomplish this end,
we desire to place the Standard upon
a more permanent footing, by purchas-
ing such material as is necessary to
conduct the business of the paper.
and without which, it cannot be
carried on successfully.
You will understand the urgent
necessity of maintaining the paper,
when we tell you it is the only med
ium by which we can make our in
fuence felt with the people of the
United States, from whom the remedy
for the evil is to be obtained, Until
the people are fully educated to the
of dealing with Polygamy,
Congress will never enact any adequ-
ate laws for its suppression.
In addition to It's main object, the
Standard will be an organ for the
local Temperance and Benevolent
Organizations, will also devote con-
siderable attention to the educational
interests Of the Territory, and will
in every number furnish some
thing that will tend to elevate and
Chistianize the homes of Utah.
We now appeal to all friends of
morality and progress, and to lovers of
American Institutions, to aid us as
as they can, both by making
donations to the printing fund and
sending subscriptions for the paper,
which is only One Dollar year. We
want to raise outside of Utah, about
$500, the balance needed, will be
furnished by the Gentiles here, who
are taxed far beyond their means, in
maintaining this unequal conflict for
so many years. We trust, dear Sis
tiers, you will respond to our appeal at
once. and let your Individual amounts
be ever so small, remember our object
is, that the breaking Of women hea rts,
and the destruction of the purity of
homes might be made to cease. All
communications to be addressed to the
Secretary Of the STANDARD PUBLISH
ING COMPANY, Box 453, Salt Lake
City, Utah, who will send receipts for
all amounts received. We remain,
Cordially Yours,
Mrs. Sarah A. COOKE, President.

Every now and then we soc wills
the Illustrated London Nc,os which rs
tonish us by the magnitude and benevo-
lence Of the pecuniary requests. Such
are the enormous bequests Of Mr.. Gard
ner 10 the blind, and Of the late Mr..
George Henry Moore, who left sporadic
leg&cies in every conceivable direction.
We naturally augur all good things from
such amiably-minded testators. But
perhaps a still higher degree Of sympa-
thy and credit ought to be attached TO
those generous-minded beings who have
made their benefactiors in their life
time. Such were the late Mr.. Atwood,
whose anonymous benefactions Of fl, 900
each were acknowledged necessarily in
the second column OF the Times; the
late Mr.. Kemble, of Bath, whose i'm
mense gifts were Of the rarest delicacy
and kindness, and Mr.. Holloway, who
has proved such benefactor to the in
sane Of the middle class and TO the cause
Of the higher education Of women.
When we read of rich man leaving an
enormous fortune TO the Metropolitan
Board Of Works, we suspect an unusus
combination Of the prosaic and imagine
tive in his composition. II was much
more sensible Of Mr.. Neald TO leave his
money to the Queen. You very often
find rich people leaving money to the
rich, and even poor people doing the
same thing. Although some cases may
admit Of explanation, it appears 10 me
that this is an indication Of very mean
order Of character, and is carrying snob-
bishness beyond the tomb. The will OF
Rabelais-if. indeed, this curious will is
really his-gives quite the spirit Of his
works: ct have no available property;
I owe a great deal the rest l give to
the poor" One thinks much of the
kind-heartedness Of people who leave
money to dumb animals; always provid-
ed, however. that they have no. cut
out their relations In favor Of cats and
dogs. Not only TO cats and dogs. but
10 horses, parrots and other birds. and
even 10 fishes, have handsome bequesss
been left Even Lord Chancellor Eldon
left small annuity 10 his dog. which is
a relieving feature in his eharacter.--

CAV cELIBAcr BE EXCUSED,

Young men are continually advised
and urged. privately and publiely. 10
take q wife, the supposition being,
whether erroneous or mot, that young
women are very willing 10 be taken un-
der almost any circumstances. The
postulate that marriage is slvsys desir.
able Is obviously false. II is only desir-
able when such conditions exist for and
between the couples as are far from
common, and frequently attainable.
The prospect Of connubial misery would
seem 10 be quite as good a. the prospect
Of oonnubial happiness, and no amount
Of foresight win insure any pair against
sharp disappointment and bitter discon-
tent Everybody is aware Of this-it Is
little less than truism-and yet ON all
sides preachments resound in favor Of
universal matrimony. Many persons do
not wish 10 be married, and more-gen-
orally those anxious to be-are not fitted
for the state. Good wifehood or true
husbandship is not inherited with birth;
nor does it appertain TO the multitude.
Those who cannot live alone cannot as
a rule live together Connubial adapta-
ton is evidence Of self-discipline, Of for
bearanoe, Of individuality. The best
wives and the best husbands are doubt
less they who, with a variation Of their
destiny, would have made model maid
ems and model bachelors Nor Is il i'm
probable that many who would have
been thsaoblest patterns Of welded do
mesticity are to-day enjoying themselves
in single blessedness. -Nel0 York paper.

Mr.. P. w. Beamer and Miss Julia
A. Beadle returned Tuesday evening
from Iowa, where they were made one
in all that pertains to welded bliss,
harmony and success. The event was
not surprising and being consummated
the friends of the parties can now offer
their hearty congratulations. It is not
we'll to be alone, and our friend Peter
understands that. He has chosen wise
ly and we'll. In the midday Of life, in
the prime of manhood, and in the
zenith of his happiness he can look
years ahead with ray of hope before
him through unclouded sunshine, and
amidst lasting glory. Whatever is
worth doing is worth doing well. The
choice in marriage may cause Joy or
it may cause woe. Mr.. Beamer and
wife, we believe, have united with pros
poets for happiness and prosperity.
May the sunshine of their lives never
be clouded.
