THE DENVER Ne,cs tells good story
which will bear repeating out this way. 1t
IS Of party Of gentlemen standing on a
Denver street, when an eight-year-old, with
a bundle Of papers on his arm, pushed him
selfin, cFyingt
Paper, H .ts-.f; All abou: the nomination Of
PRESIDENT HARRISON
Nomination." exclaimed one Of the gentle
men turning around and smiling down upon the
youngster. why, my little fellow, your paper
is six months behind the times. HARRISON was
nominated a long time ago.
The little fellows eyes fell for a moment, and
he said:
Wen, its nomination or installation or some
thing like that, cause they told me it was. "
Then Frightening up he said: Maybe It's reSur-
rection?'
Now you have II" responded the gentleman,
with "a cruel twinkle in his eye and immobile
features. while his companions turned to laugh
ut something going on up street, and the tot
went on his way rejoicing, singing:
'Ere's your evenin paper! All bout the res
direction OF President HARRISoN"'

IT IS PLEASANT.

1t has seemed as though the new year
should have commenced in the spring, when
the green just begins to dawn over the
earth, and the tender leaves, like the dove
in search of land, put forth. What effect on
the resolutions for better life that seem
inseparably to associate themselves with
the new year were the new year
TO begin when the earth, and
air too, seem to resolve to renew existence,
we may not know; but one cannot avoid
the feeling that there might be greater hope
for their fulfllment We're the man forever
reminded Of his own good resolutions by
the new life OF the fresh and fair earth
1t is at least a pleasant thought and is
certainly more congenial to the heart than
prolongation of winters cold and snow and
ice and cheerlessness, save for the warm
evening fire, which in every hearth is
pleasant.
But we look differently upon that which
is pleasant. Pleasant is the gain hoped for
or realized to some. Social joys are the
most pleasant to another, and the student
feels pleasures kindling glow in acquired
knowledge. Pleasant is revenge to some,
or, as BYRON declares:
Sweet is revenge-especially to women.
When one thinks of pleasant things there
are moonlight walks and signing winds
that are pleasant and there come the re-
membrance, at eventide, and in the quiet
night, of voices that we love.
How beautiful is night
When the silvery moon is high
And the countless stars like ghttering gems,
Hang sparkling in the sky;
When the baimy breath of the SUNNI er's breeze,
Comes whispering down the glow;
And one fond voice alone is heard
An, night is lovely then.
And it is pleasant to think of old times,
old friends; yes. and of old loves.
Surely it is pleasant to wal1en in the
morn, when the sun is rising and the air,
fresh and pure, fills with new vigor the
relaxed system, to hear the chirp of birds,
the laughing voices of children; and turn
ing lazily over to look out upon green fields,
new-leaved trees, to inhale the scent of
flowers and gaze far into the blue heavens
and watch the idle clouds as they lie still
and calm or float away upon unseen and
unfelt air currents. Surely, this is pleas
ant.
Bat Of all pleasures, none is more sweet
than that which awakening conscience
brings him who fears no revelation of the
evil things done in the past. In that twi-
light of the mind, that dawn of conscious
ness, when more and still more rapidly
through the dim uncertainty Of the yet
unrenewed man, comes the light of exist
ence. How sweet the awakening after a
night that has known no evil, only those
can feel that have arisen to day blighted
by the knowledge of day past, or night
in which evil has mingled with evil The
Joy that grows and irradiates the whole
being with the morning consciousness that
there is no evil to repent, no burden of
heartache to resume, no shame to fear, is
the great and lasting delight Of the morn
ing awakening.
If we feel so much Of Joy from the pres
ent; what sense OF pleasure and what
depths Of woe will the awakening in the
great hereafter bring to US!
How much do we carel

ABOUT SAMOA.

There is absolutely nothing which should
be accepted as verifying the rumor OF an
engagement in Samoan waters between the
American and German war ships Nipsic and
Olga, respectively, resulting in the sinking
of the former vessel. On the contrary,
everything suggests that theannouncement
is purely and maliciously sensational Dl-
rect and pointed news of the event would
have Travelled as swiftly as the
story which has come around the

member of the democratic state committee,
and member OF congress for six terms. He
was reelected to the Fifty-frst congress
by the usual large majority. He was
recognized as among the leaders of his
party, and four years ago was talked of in
connection with place in CLRvELAND's
cabinet. The democrats will not lose the
district, but it is doubted that there is
man in 1t who will be able to take the place
in the party councils held by TowNsHEND.

One Dollar Hoods Sarsaparilla is the only
medicine of which this can be truly said;
and it is an unanswerable argument as to
the strength and positive economy of this
great medicine. Hoods Sarsaparilla is made
of roots, herbs, barks, ETC., long and favorably
known for their power in purifying the blood.
and in combination, proportion, and process
Hoods Sarsaparilla is peculiar to itself.
"For economy and comfort we use Hoods
Sarsaparilla.' Mrs. C. BREWSTER, Buffalo
"Hood's Sarsaparilla takes less time and
quantity to show its effect than any other
preparation ever heard of. would not be
without it in the house." Mrs. C. A. NJ.

For HON Use.

I have tested its curative power, in my
family, many times during the past
thirty years, and have never known it
to fail. 1t will relieve the most serious
affections of the throat and lungs,
whether in children or adults. - - Mrs.
E. G. Edgerly, Council Bluffs, Iowa.
"Twenty years ago I was troubled
with a disease of the lungs. Doctors
afforded me no relief and considered
my case hopeless. I then began to use
Ayers Cherry Pectoral, and, before I
had finished one bottle, found relief. I
continued to take this medicine until
cure was effected. l believe that Ayers
Cherry Pectoral saved my life."-
Samuel Griggs, Waukegan, Ill.
"Six years ago l contracted a severe
cold, which settled on my lungs and
soon developed all the alarming symp-
toms of Consumption. 1 had a cough,
night sweats, bleeding of the lungs,
pains in chest and sides, and was SO
Frustrated as to be confined to my
bed most of the time. After trying
various prescriptions, without benefit,
my physician finally determined to give
me Ayers Cherry Pectoral. 1 took it,
and the effect was magical. 1 seemed
to rally from the first dose of this
medicine, and, after using only three
bottles, am as well and sound as ever"
Rodney johnson, Springfield, Ill.
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1889-03-10

Moreover, there are other circumstances
existing that must assist in bringing to pass
the state of things we predict. Europe is
now nothing more than an armed camp.
The inhabitants thereof are taxed to the
very limit of their endurance to support
their armies and nayies; still, each year are
their burdens increased. The peace footing
of the army of Germany is more than half a
million men, while the war footing of the
army, counting all available forces of all
classes, is more than six millions of officers
and men, to say nothing of the navy. How
long can Germany support this immense
force of men. How long can her resources
hold out under such pressure! All the
nations of Europe are bending all their
powers to keep up with Germany; and even
now the proposition is made to the British
parliament to increase immensely the Eng
lish navy, that it may be able to cope
successfully with the navies Of any two
European powers. Add to these conditions
the fact that the increased effectiveness of
the engines of destruction will make war to
mean the humiliation of the armies en-
gagged in it, and it must be admitted that
there. exists a combination of causes sLffi-
GENTLY strong to result before long in a
disarmament of the nations whose belliger-
ent attitude threatens the peace of the
world, and compel them to submit to an ar
bitration of their difficulties. 1t is true
that before that time shall come there may
be wars, and wars the like of which, for
disaster, the earth hath not yet known. The
war clouds now hanging over the nations
will scarcely be dispelled without. war
storm sufficient to clear the horizon of them.
Revolution may succeed revolution disaster
may be piled upon disaster, but from the
wreck and ruin that a general European
war, such as the nations of that land are
preparing for, and seem fastening towards,
mankind would learn wisdom, and by that
experience would enter into such combina-
tons as would render war impossible. And
thus may be brought to pass that happy
period of peace foreseen in the dreams of
the old prophet, in which swords shall be
beaten into plow-shares, and spears into
pruning hooks; when nation shall not lift
up sword against nation, neither shall they
learn war any more.

world and is now exciting if not alarm
ing the people of two continents. The
latest reliable information from the seat of
the trouble was to the effect that all was
quiet and there was no occasion for appre-
hension. The Germans were less aggressive
and less offensive than they had been, and
the Americans were no longer interfered
with in the exercise of their rights. All
were awaiting orders from their govern
ments and it has been widely published
that the. orders were of pacific char
acter, the intention being to adjust the
dispute through arbitration and diplo-
macy rather than by a resort to
force. 1t is hardly probable that
the Germans, impudent, assertive
and aggressive as they were, would take
the responsibility of firing on an American
ship, and it is certain that an American
commander would do nothing to precipitate
a conflict. There is another thing, also, to
be considered in this connection. If the
United States Warships. ordered to Samoa
met with no mishap, they were at Apia
when the alleged collision took place, in
which event the disaster would have been
far more serious than the sinking of the
Nipsic, as our force in the harbor would
have been greater than that of Germany.
Americans would not be apt to let the
Germans off lightly after such an occur
renee as that reported. In the course of a
few days we will doubtless learn that the
story is an unconscionable hoax, and that
comparative peace prevails at Samoa,
pending settlement of the trouble at
Washington and Berlin.
In this connection, we can all wonder as
we think of war between the United
States and Germany. Such war would
be almost ludicrous. How would the com
batants manage to fight! The United States
will assuredly never send over to Germany
to give battle there, and the Germans are
not such fools as to come over to this
country for the sake of getting into flight.
1t is not likely that both parties will en-
gage in the child's play Of appointing a
time and place and going out upon the high
seas to try conclusions, as two pugilists
would do. AS neither Germany nor Amer
lea has isolated colories which can be at
tackled, a war would mean simply adiscon-
tinuance of commercial relations, the actual
fighting being of a privateer character CON
fined largely to the merchant marine of the
two countries. Now and then the Ameri-
cans would capture German ship, and the
Germans would retaliate by gathering in an
American vessel. It seems almost humor-
Gus that two great powers, among the
mightiest on earth, should be in such a
position that they cannot fight if they want
