we kept our first estate. / believe that
when you and were IN youder life we
made certain covenants with those that
had the control that In this life. when
we should be permitted to enter Il, We
would do what we had done 10 that life
find out the will OF God and conform
to H. have not the least idea that
would be here today talking TO YOU,
unless It was distinctly understood In
that lie that when ] came into this
! would be obedicnt to the will OF
God as u should be revealed. or
course. we have forgotten these things;
but the Lord IS beginning 70 illuminate
our understandings aud is bringing 20
our recollection certain things IN regard
TO how We were there, and Tor what We
have come into this world. What you
and now WANT 10 know Us how 10 secure
the position we occupied M the other
life when we 20 back, and that which
will naturally be added TO as in conac.
qucnce Of the experience that we had 900
tins life, Tor the Lord has told us that
those who would keep their second
estate, glory should be added upon
their heads forever and ever II seems
10 me that no man or woman can afford
10 do anything Ia this lie only that
which. directly OF indirectly, will be In
conformity to the will Of God
There IS a course that men and women
may pursue wherein there will be no
failure, Whatever disappoInimcnts may
arise or seeming failures may result,
there will be in reality no failure, as
general thing. As we have heard from
the different speakers, there has been
no stoppagc with this Church. Appar.
emily there has been. There have been
times when Il seemed as though we
were moving backward, az least, Il has
to those who were not FULLY enlightened
in regard 10 the mind and will OF God.
The Church has passed through very
strange experiences and the people have
made great sacrifices. No people were
ever raised up, excepting perhaps
EnOchs, that have sacrificed TO the eK-
tent that this people have. Butwc have
come along through these sacrifices,
and as a people there has been no
failure. Why has there been no iailurc'
Because the people, as a whole, have
had their minds fixed upon the true
principles Of life, and they have con-
iormed to their duty, as they did In the
other life. The people generally have
had the Spirit OF the Lord, aud have
followed H. Hence there has been no
failure So Il may be with individuals.
There Is a course Tor every person to
pursue In which there will be no failure.

The Lord has said that lie will give Us

ever could receive more perfect
knowledge In regard to the existence Of
God and OF the truth OF this work than
God gave 20 me by revelation and the
opening OF the heavens. From that
time on ! have tried to live Ia such

THE COTTON STATES FOR
THE SHIP CANAL

1t is evident that nearly all the
Southern States will support the
bill now before Congress for the
construction of the Nicaragua
Canal. The New Orleans Picay-
une cites the commercial argu-
ment in favor of the canal that
it would vastly facilitate the
American cotton trade with japan.
The Al 100000 people Of that coun-
try mostly wear cotton clothing.
and the manufacture of cotton
goods is becoming the largest in
dustry. There are already about
l,000,O00 spindels ih operation,
which have been introduced with
in a few years, since the adoption
of modern machinery.
Since the first of July, 1894, raw
cotton is admitted into Japan free
of duty. American cotton is
bought in Liverpool and shipped
to Japan by way of Cape of Good
Hope, or the Suez Canal, \ large
per cent of the goods manufac-
tured in that country require a
long staple. Therefore American
cotton is in demand. The Indian
and Chinese cotton are short
staple, Egyptian cotton has too
long staple for ordinary spin
ming and the price generally rules
about Is per cent higher thun the
best American cotton.
The view taken by Southern
papers is that if there was short
route to Asia by way of the Mica
ragua Canal ships loaded with
cotton from the Gulf ports
would have a great advantage
over vessels crossing the Allan
tic and passing through the Med
iterranean and the Suez Canal;
but without such water way
European ships would have the
advantage.
1t is a notable fact that the
Southern States, which formerly
manifested an indifference to the
project of a ship canal, have re-
Gently taken the lead in favor of
its construction. The strategical
Importance of the short route to
the Pacific is not SO much dwelt
upon as the immense commercial
advantage which the Southern
States would derive from the pro-
posed waterway. 1t is now
reasonably clear that these States
will stand by either the bill of
Senator Morgan, or one not
greatly different.

TO CEASE PROSECUTION.

Acknowledgement OlEey has di-
rected the United States District
Attorney at st. Louis to dismiss
all charges against railroad
strikers who are accused OF vio-
lating the Interstate Commerce
and Postal laws by the obstruc-
ton Of trains during the Ameri.
can Railway Union strike last
July. 1t was intimated in con-
nection with the order of the
Attorney General that the govern
ment had expressed the belief that
the strikers had been punished
enough.
1t appears that the Government
has come to the conclusion that
further prosecution of those VIII o
engaged III the strike and COM
mitted no over act, would be con-
strued into persecution. If a
striker or anybody else destroys
life or property he shou d be pros
ecuted and punished. No law
abiding citizen desires TO have
criminals go unpublished, but
very many law abiding citizens
cannot see why person who took
q bolt or nut off II locomotive
should be indicted in a United
States Court for the ofIense any
more than a person who takes a
bolt or nut off farmers

strued it is an offe nse against the

States make a distinction between

ing the mails on railroads and

more sacred by the Government
than the horses and the stage

A STREET CAR INCIDENT.
In Which q Chivalrous Little Man Makes
a Big Mistake.

He was little man, but his firm,
quick step and erect head showed that
he weighed 16 ounces to the pound and
had all the confidence of a man weigh
ing 900 pounds.
He stopped on the corner till street
Car came along and stepped aboard.
The Car was full, and several people
were standing. He took hold of strap
and looked over the crowd and saw that
several women were ste -,ding while a
number of men were occupying comfort
able seats.
1t riled him to see it, and when his
eye fell upon pale faced little woman
holding on to a strap, while large,
lazy looking man sat near, by, he could
not remain silent.
'See here, - said he to the big man,
there is lady standing while you have
seat.
yes, " said the big man.
"Well, don't you think you ought to
give up your seat to this woman, wh0
has probably been hard at work during
the day."
"No."
"You don't?''
II do not -
"Well, said the little man as he
braced himself, 81 do, and am going
to yank you clean out of this car.
He grabbed the big man by the collar
and proceeded to drag him off the seat,
but was interrupted by the woman, who
grabbed him by the hair.
'Hold onp' cried the little man.
"That's what I'm doing, said the
woman.
"But I mean let up OH this. What do
you mean by attacking me?"
"Look-a-here, said the female, 81
didn't ask you to get me seat. Besides
l want you to know that man you have
hold of is my husband !"
The little man let go of the big man,
and the woman let go her hold on the
hair, and order was restored, but the
little man was quiet until he reached
the end of his route, when he left the
car, when he was heard to mutter,
"And such is life!'-Peck's Sun
