When anything stands the test of fifty
years among a discriminating people like
the Americans, it is pretty good evidence
that there is merit somewhere. The vslue
OF a medicine is best proved by its con
;inued use from year to year By the same
persons and families. as we'll as by a
steady increasing sale. Few, if any,
medicines have met with such continued
success and popularity as has marked the
Introduction aud progress Of Brandreth's
Pills, which, after a trial OF over fifty
years, are conceded to be the saiest and
most effectual purgative introduced to the
public.
That this is the result o merit, and
that Brandreth's Pills actually perform all
that is claimed for them. is conclusively
proved by the fact that those who regard
them with the greatest favor are those
who have used them the longest.
Brandreth's Pills are sold in every drug
and medicine store, either plain or sugar
coated.

Alexander Comstock says; "There is
nothing so changeable as public taste. A
few years ago the craze was for melo-
dramas; then Shakespearean r~evivals were
the popular thing, and afterward came a
craze for grand opera. Today there are
only two grand opera organizations in ex-
istence-the Metropolitan opera, OF New

drama is a thing OF the past, and Booth

tragedy pay. The public favorites today

HOW Do THEY LIKE 1T?

The HERALD imagines that its Republi-
can friends in this territory, and especially
those of the Mormon faith, will discover
bad taste in their mouths this morning be-
fore finishing the Presidents message. 1t
Isn't much that HARRISON saws regarding
Utah, but that little is sufficient to convey
the information that he takes no stock in
the political movement which has recently
taken place here, and furthermore that he
has very slight faith in the honesty and
sincerity of the Mormon people in their pro-
fessed abandonment of polygamy. He
gives them no credit for what they have
done, but says their compliance with the
law is due TO the fact that they have come
to the conclusion that resistance is uu pro nt-
able and unavailing." He is emphatic in the
declaration that Congress should not lose
its absolute control over the territory until
it has satisfactory evidence that the people
will not return to their former practices.
and says;
"The question is not whether these peo-
pie now obey the laws Of Congress against
polygamy, but rather would they make.
enforce and maintain such laws themselves
if absolutely free 10 regulate the subieo.
We cannot afford to experiment with this
subject for, when state is once consti-
tuted, the act is final, and any mistake ir-
repediable. No compact in the enabling
act could in my opinion, be binding or eff
fectiye.'
or course this cuts no figure in the af-
fairs of Utah. The casting of doubt by the
President upon the honesty of the people
will have no effect upon those people, or at
least not the effect to make them iusincere
and dishonest. As church the Mormons
have forbidden polygamy. AS individ Gals
they have ceased 10 marry polygamously.
These are facts which cannot be gainsaid
by the President, however meanly he may
slur the people who have finally accepted
the laws and conformed their conduct to
the sentiment of the American people.
The purpose Of the President is apparent.
and that aim is inspired by the fact that he
retains the attitude which he and his party
have SO long held, refusing to recognize the
changed conditions. He spprehends a
movement for statehood, and would put OBJ
stscles in the way. Inasmuch as statehood
is something concerning which very few
pseRls Aa.s ara in the leaat exer-

Illinois in 1871, but left in 1873 to enter

the classical course in 1873; prepared for
admission to the bar, but afterward en-
tered the Western Theological seminary at
Allegheny, Pa, graduating in 1882; was
pastor OF Congregational churches at cho

says to Congress that he regards the Saints
as band of hypocrites who should be held
under surveillance lest with the freedom Of
Americans they turn criminals.

reference in the message, or that they will
use the paragraph as campaign document.
