BUILDINGS on CAPITOL HILL.
Governor Thomas Heads a Move.
ment for Congressional Action.

Governor Thomas has inaugur-
sted an important movement, and
with his accustomed energy and
persistence he viii no doubt
accomplish the object he has
in view, and in which he
will he warmly seconded by
leading men in official business
circles. The undertaking is no less
than the securing, from this session
of Congress, Of an appropriation for
the immediate erection Of public
buildings on Capitol Hill. The
amount asked fer viii be $500.
900, sum that would pay
for the erection Of buildings
and improvement OF the grounds in
manner that would lie a credit to
the government. 1t IL be-
lieved that at least s25O,OO0 would
be readily given for the purpose,
and while this would be sufficient
for a magnificent structure, yet a
larger amount would be necessary to
place the grounds and Surroundings
in desirable condition.

THE IDAHO TEST OATH.
The Arguments Before the United
Ststes supreihe Court.

WASHINGTON, ID. c., Dec. 10.
Especial to the DEsERET News. i
The argument of Judge Jere viii
son, In the Idaho lest oath case, was
made yesterday, and was very clear
and logical. He said that the law
making department had no right to
so into the domain Of conscience
and make q man an offender be-
cause of his religious belief. This
was precisely what the Idaho oath
did, by DISTINGUISHING a citizen be-
cause Of his membership in a reli-
giOus association, and its action was
yiolative Of the Constitution of the
United States. Judge Wilson cited
from numerous authorities, and
from decisions Of The Supreme
Court, in line with his position.
During the argument he was lis
tened TO attentively by the Court,
ami numerous questions were asked
by the judge.
II. w. Smith, better known rs
''Kentucky" Smith, followed. He is
now a resident Of Ogden, but for
merly lived in Idaho, and is under
stood to be the franer of the test
oath that is being discussed. He
claimed that the oath was not viola
tive Of the Constitution; that il went
no farther into the domain of relig-
ious belief than did the Edmunds-
Tucker cath, passed by Congress in
1857. He insisted that membership
in a church or association could be
made disqualification for citizen
ship, rs being member of any or
ganizatlOn was not an action, and
was rightfUl subject Of legislation.
The court adjourned last evening
before Mr.. Smith had concluded his
argument. This afternoon he pro-
ceeded In the same vein as yester-
day.
When he finished, Hon F. S.
Richards began the closing argu-
ment and made a telling speech.
Kentucky" Smiths points were
completely met.
1t is believed here that the court
cannot decide against membership
in the Mormon" Church and in
favor Of the law, on constitutional
grounds. The authorities cited were
numerous and pointed. Dubois
was present during the proceedings.

There was considerable activity
among the various sub-commit-

"ArOund the Nyorldc was pro-

under difficulties. The stage was
too small for the scenery, and in
consequence much had to be left off.
Owing TO the late arrival of the train

70 up till nearly an hour after the
advertised time. What was seen Of
the show gave general satisfaction.
No blame can be attached 10 the
management of the house, for they
did their best.

ordinance passed some months ago,
entitled "An Ordinance for the
Promotion of Morality" Very
little notice was taken OF this ordi-

Monroe was fined $50 and costs,
but Immediately filed a notice Of

The Closing Of the Year.

A few more days and the year
which to some has brought happi-
ness. to others sadness, will he added
TO those which have passed before it.
Many will, during the present
month, sit in retrospective thought
over the events which have marked
the wear in their lives. To the young
the years speed not fast enough; to
the old they are all too short. The
young employ the closing Of one
year in ambitious planning for the
next, the aged muse Ouer the
events Of the past and con-
template the mysteries Of the future.
In the lives Of some the year has
proved a memorable one, while in
those Of others it j. suggestive Of no
special events. The hopes Of one
have reached fruition, the aspira-
tons of another have fallen short OF
success, and thus the last day Of
December brings alike pleasant and
sad memories. Whatever the year
1889 has brought to US, there is Il
valuable lesson to be learned. III any
undertaking upon which we en-
tered has proved unsuccessful,
we can now, on looking back
over the ground, see more clear
" the cause OF our failure. No
lesson is 50 forcibly learned
rs that born Of experience. A past
failure Oftimes points to n future
success, If we but profit by the les
son. No year is wasted which brings
US 10 a clear realization Of our ill.,
dividual worth and its best employ
ment. The experiences Of the old
year will make our successes during
the new more assured, for we VIII
have learned what shoals TO avoid
in the sea Of life. II our bark has
just ground over the rocky reefs
with but slight injury, let us feel
thankful that We were not en-
tirely wrecked. To the successful,
the truth has been Taught that the
best success is that which is borne
with mOdesty and'a humble exterior.
1t is a poor success that brings
with il an outward self-cousciOus-
NESS Of our talents or gifts. The
most admir-, i and beloved men and
women are those who combine pros
perity with mOdeSty. And thus to
all, the year can be fruitful Of good
results, If we but extract from our
individual experiences only that
which will he best and most profit
able for us 10 remember. Then we
shall be the better prepared TO enter
upon the new year with wisdom,
zeal and energy. -Er.
