After referring to the watchful care
bestowed upon the saints Of Zion by those
holding authority in the respective wards
and stakes, and the happiness which
prevailed among the people, Apostle
Thatcher remarked that all this was
not the result of secret combination,
of socialism, of fenianism, of nihilisD1,
of trades unions, and the struggle
of labor against capital, but of the holy
spirit of God resting down upon them,
making them to feel that they are the
children of God
Why, he asked, should we permit the
spirit of discomfort and fault-fnding to
prevail in our midst to the advantage of the
gentiles and ungodly, who regard us with
feelings of the deepest hatel We should
not lightly dispose of our inheritance to
strangers. Treat them kindly when they
are within thy gates and show them every
consideration. But there is no reason
WHY WE SHOULD YIELD TO OUR ENEMIES
those from whose cruelties we fled in the
past, who robbed US of our flocks and other
possessions, burned our houses, killed our
friends, and those near and dear to US. God
has planted our feet in these mountains.
He has made US a free people; He has
showered down upon US the blessings of
heaven and earth, and will preserve US
unto the end. However much we may
dread Imprisonment and death, God is
stronger than all, and will bring US safely
through.
Let US sustain His holy priesthood, men
full of tender mercy, long suffering and
judgment. May peace dwell in the habita-
tions of the people, may they become more
prayerful than in the past, and seek to
unite their hearts in one and all things,
both spiritual and temporal, until the king
dom of God shall be fully established upon
the earth.

BuRoETTE's PHILOSOPHY.
HEREDITARY HERgpITY.

An honest Indian, who had been among the
white men long enough to tearn how to shave
his fellow men, within the pale of the law,
opened barber shop out in Cheyenne. Some
body, probably not a clergyman, hung sign
up over his door, the first night, which read,
'Superiuous bair removed while you wait. :"
And all next day the patient barber wondered
why nobody came near his shop except a bald
headed policeman who loitered behind tree
box over the way.

introducing his remarks he referred to the
power of the holy spirit as manifested
in the days of the early apostles,
and went on to say that the Latter
day Saints have been making sacrifices
for the truth. We have been making
many of them daily. We should be willing
to sacrifice anything that we possess for
the sake of the gospel and we should do
this cheerfully.
There may seem a time when clouds and
trials may appear to dim our prospects.
In this way the saints are tested and God
is gloritied. There is nothing that can sue
cessfully operate against our efforts in the
path in which we are moving. Persecution
is rather an aid to our progress and draws
US nearer to God.
The Lord saw proper to give Job into the
hands of the prince of darkness for brief
season Job in these trials maintained his
integrity Might it not be so with the
Latter-day Saints? 1t might be well for
US to have some kind of anticipations of
this kind.

my prayer continually. The more 1
understand the things of God, the
more l love those principles; and so
it will be with every tter-day
Saint. God bless you in your houses, and
all pertaining unto you, especially in wis
dom, knowledge and intelligence and in the
trials that God may see fit to let our enc
mics bring upon US; and that the priest
hood in all their administrations may be

of Jesus. Amen.

Elder Seymour B. Young.

have listened to the remarks of the
brethren with great satisfaction. l have
never attended conference in which more
of the spirit of the Lord has been mani
tested. The teachings of the elders have
been characterized by the holy spirit.
When we maintain in our public assemblies
the spirit of the gospel, the people rejoice.
In this divine system is all that is neces-
sary for the development of the noblest
and highest aspirations of men. No other
organization, secret or otherwise, is need
full for our purpose, as 1t embraces all
truth Salvation is an individual work. It
is needful that each one should possess the
holy spirit and be guided by its influence.
Our enemies have charged US with dis
loyalty 1t has been suggested that no
more Mormon immigrants should be al
lowed to land on the shores of this country
until they take an oath to the effect that
they do not have a specified religious be-
lief. These conditions exist in the face of
the fact that the saints have always been
loyal to the government, even going so far
as to supply 500 men under the most trying
circumstances, to go to Mexico and fight
the battles of the country. The saints have
DEFENDED THE CoUNTRY's INTERESTS
against Indian depredatians comparatively
without remuneration from the govern
ment. But, as President Brigham Young
once said, Notwithstanding that we may
be outraged and abused, still we love our
country and revere the principles of its
government. The saints have sought to
show good example to all people, that
they might be induced to turn to God and
serve Him.
We should hold our blessings sacred, and
not engage in any society that would lead
US away from the teachings of God and His
servants. We should sustain the govern
ment, each other and all things that are
good and worthy. In relation to our
government we should submit to all things
placed upon US in the providence of God,
but in the meantime make our calling and
election sure. We should follow the ex-
ample of meekness placed before US by
Christ, when He submitted Himself, for
righteousness sake, to be baptized of John.
The Jews spurned their Savior, but the
time will come when they will repent and
acknowledge Him. The people of this ma
ton are rejecting the message of the Cos
pei, but it is our du ty to proclaim it. God
win give them numerous testimonies Of its
truth and will ultimately make bare His
arm, vindicate His people and bring them

of His ways and to walk in His paths, to

of God; that this religion that the world
stigmatizes as Mormenism is indeed the

me from the day of my childhood. -
The speaker continued to refer TO the
manifest Indifference prevalent amongst
the young Latter-day Saints; and the OBJ
ject in relating his own experience was to
show that although lack of testimony is
common amongst our young people, we
should not look upon their cases as
hopeless. He spoke words of en-
engagement to parents, eXhorting them
TO continue to pray for their wayward sons
and their hayward daughters, for God is
merciful and is willing to save them, and
will save and use them as instruments in
His hands in extending the cause of truth
amongst the children of men.

and that they have determined that their

Tha London solicitors for the children

their representatives here claim to have

whom Lady Cook was never divorced.
One Of them lived in 81. Louis, and
