A SINNER AND A SAINT.


The Respective Roles Played by the liv.

TIE late Ma Ju. Lung was formerly
Commander In Chief In Yunnan. A
memorial was presented to the En-.
perOr by Get tain nOtabilities, stating
bis good works and praying that post.
humOus hOnOrs might tbecOnferred on
him. He had DISTINGUISHED himself
In the great MOhammedan rebellion
of MAY, 1870. "F'irst and last" said
they, "he was instrumental in kill.
ing over 10, 900 of the enemy. and his
own person practically decided the
fate OF Yunnan." The Emperor duly
considered the statements set forth
In the memorial, and before long
issued the gratifying decree in the
Pekin Gazette that the highest hon.
0rs possible TO he accorded to one OF
Ma Ju Lungs rank be conferred on
his spirit, that u temple be erected
In the capital Of Yunnan and that
his deeds lie recorded by the State
historioyrapher.
Ma Ju.Luug was therefore duly
heatiHed and canOnized; he was to
be worshipped as % saint. But the
number Of the Gazette containing
these announcements struck rage
and despair into the breasts of many
In Yunnan. In their eyes the upstart
saint was a good for. nOthing scamp
and his admirers were pettifogging
traders. In the rebellion he was q
traitor and sold himself to the
enemy. II he was instrumental In

The democrats reserved the best of
the wine to the last of the feast when
they kept Whitney back to Monday
night. 1t was an eloquent, able and
chaste presentation of the democratic
faith. 1t was the speech of lofty pa
triot and Of man who understands
the dignity of American citizenship.
Mr.. WhitneY's lines in life lead him
away from politics. 1t is so much the
worse for politics. 1t would be grand
thing for us if all our men of Whitney's
character would interest themselves
more in the politics of the country.
That will do more to elevate politics
than anything else. We trust that M.
Whitney will often come to PROVO and

This question is often heard and
nearly as often unanswered.
1t is not always remembered, as it
should be, that the occasion of ill
temper and irritability is often to be
found in the physical condition OF the
persons affected. What is the use of
trying to harmonic" man whose
liver has gone back on him? If man
is tortured with rheumatism, how can
he be expected to be affable and agree
able2 Can a confirmed dyspeptic be
expected to be cheerful and always
ready to tell funny story? The only
way to remove the difficulty is to get at
the cause. Dyspepsia, rheumatism,
impure blood and liver troubles yield
to Hoods Sarsaparilla; this is why it
is an effective tranquilizer, peaceful
messenger, and preventative of do
mestic ouarrels.

THE RESULT.

The result is entirely too close to
make one feel good or to warrant any
greal deal of lung music. At this
moment, a. N. it is toss up on the
state ticket with Rawlins SO far as We
can see few hundred votes in the
rear. There is quite a number Of
points to hear from with little chance
of changing the result very materially.
OF course the ticket for land COM
missioners will share the fate of the
head of the ticket or nearly SO. The
constitutional convention ticket is,
we think, safely democratic in the ter
ritory, and if we get it by but one vote
we will be satisfied. That is the big
thing-the important interest. The re
publican bari IN this county was a po-
tent influence IN cutting down the
democratic majorities and the only
wonder is, is that it did not snow III
under completely. 1t is glory sufficient
that Utah county elected her excellent
delegate ticket, and her excellent
county ticket without the loss of man
This, when we remember that tht
republicans made of Utah county thei
chief battle ground is pretty goo,
They spent money here freely, lavishly
and the result is and can be but sat,
isfactory- Old Utah is safely demo
cratic anu will so remain but tn,
barrel and the bottle have Provo safe
ly in their clutches, we fear.
The great regret is the defea
OF Rawlins. 1t is the chagrin of tht
campaign that our peerless leader wa
showed under. The Zane bIackguart
Campaign was successful. 1t is a grea
pity that such influences control. Th
defeat of this magnificent representa-
tive of the people will not win favor
able attention to Utah. An earnes
statesman like man is thrown owe
for mere triher. 1t don't speak vel
for the people of this territory. Th
constitutional delegate ticket will tel
a bitter tale of the status of Utah. I
we can save that the chances of ulti.
mstely redeeming the state will b
good.
We feel too sore, too much chagrine
to write more today. We feel very sur
that our readers will excuse us.

Deafness Cannot be Cured.

There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an inflamed con-
d1tion of the mucous lining of the
fustachian Tube. When this tube
gets infamed you have a rumbling
sound or imperfect bearing, and when
it is entirely closed deafness is the re-
suit, and unless the lnflammatio can
be taken out and this tube restored to
Its normal condition, hearing will be
destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten
are caused by catarrh, which is nothing
but an iDfamed condition of the
mucous surfaces.
