PAY THE PRINTER.

A solemn tall make to all.
From lord to lOwly winter,
Come high and low, come rich and poor
Come all and pay the printer.
The news he brings, the song he sings,
Are surely worth the trouble;
Do not delay, although "they say"
He will employ the "devIl."
How could We know without his aid,
The changes In the weatherf"
Whether absent friends in hyInen's bands
For life are Joined tOgetleri
YOu know full well l cannot tell
One-tenth the news he gives.
Yet all mnst stop unless yOn. drop
The lite by which he lives.
"The times are hard" know you'll add,
'Tis true, but rice rersa
The printers cry is just as bad,
If not little to0rsr.
Then come on, friends. do not delay
To still be called "stinter;"
Wit open heart, purse and hand,
Come and pay the printer.

Recently spent few days very

only wonder that summer visitors
were not iu greater numbers. The
very air was rife Nith pleasure.

wings of some, distant schooner
glinted in the food OF mellow light.
Sun drowned boys splashed through
the shallow waters, and drank deep,
as only boys can, of life's bright
pleasures /; their dusky locks tossed
about by the frcsheniug breeze;
that came sweeping through the
curtained, messy branches of the
giant oaks. The tug Leo lay sleep.

NOT FOR GENERAL PRACTICE.

The News OF last night in reviewing
the report Of the Utah Commissioners,
said:
That Mormon" plurality of wives is not
for general practice, that it is only designed
for specified individuals; that even all "Mor-
mons'-if there were women enough for
plural wives for all the men in the church
would not be worthy of the privileges of the
system, and that it is not promulgated for
outside acceptance and proselytism.
As we have insisted and shown hereto
fore, the practice of polygamy is privi-
lege and not right Such being the
case, why do the great majority of the
Mormon people insist upon keeping the
Territory in a continual turmoil that a
few may enjoy a privilege, to enjoy which
privilege is to violate law? The News
must know that the Constitution of the
United States only undertakes to protect
rights and not privileges. Privilege al
ways accompanies class and caste, and
class and caste have been the bane of the
world. 1t is but right that the practice of
polygamy should be a privilege, because
the polygamists of Utah, according to
MIR. George Q. Cannon, are the elite of
the Mormon people. The strife and tur-
moil raised in Utah over the enforcement
OF the Edmunds law are raised that the
elite OF the Mormon people may continue
to enjoy special privileges.
In the Reynolds case, the great test
case on polygamy, it was claimed that the
practice OF polygamy was a right and not
a privilege. By what process OF evolu-
ton does right become privilege in
seven years? Polygamy is privilege in
the Mormon church we are told authori-
tatively, told by the First Presidency of
the church. Such being the case, wherein
can any wrong be done by depriving men
OF that privilege when the indulgence of
the privilege is in direct violation of a
valid law? To put stop to the exercise
OF this privilege cannot be to deprive
any one OF right which may
accrue at future time. A privilege can
never accrue, it is always bestowed. BY
no possible process can man acquire
this privilege, if those who bestow it wish
to withhold it.
The people OF Utah will have to make
more logical argument in support OF
their marriage system than to call it a
privilege, if they mean to convince the
world that they are right and the law is
wrong, and that to enforce the law il IN
persecute them.
