have the people decide the question.
And, in order to bring out full ex-
preston it has decided to offer list of
prizes to be awarded to the ten most

The contest is confined to the fou,
states in which The APPEAL has Offices

The APPEAL can not in common fair
ness, advocate the merits of this or that
preacher. Two things are of the first
Importance in order to hope for success.
The first is to make selection of
preacher who is possessed of qualities
essential to popularity. Having selected
a candidate the second step is to work
for his success. Let one secure all the
ballots possible and at the same time stir
up interest and activity in others. De-
lay in securing ballots are as dangerous
as delays in other matters. It would
worry one much to learn that his or her
candidate might have been elected by
a slight extra effort. A few votes may
be the difference between the winners
and losers. Hence the Importance of
early and persistent activity in securing
ballots. The plan of determining who
the most popular minister is, is given in
order that all may thoroughly under.
stand.

Last week, says California paper a
Colored man killed a monster rattle
snake six miles this side of Glover Val
ley. on the Union Pacific extension
from Milford. The only weapon which
the man had was in the form of earth
clods but he succeeded in crushing out
the life of the RATHER, and upon exani-
nation found the snake to measure ten
feet in length, with ninety-six rattles
and button on the lateral extremity.
This would give an almost phenomenal
age to the snake, making it about one
hundred years old. The skin and
rattle have been taken north to Salt
Lake, from whence it will be shipped to
the East.
