FOR SUNDAY READING.
GODS ANSWE Err.

Where is healing for my sorrow?
So cried in my distress.
Give me hope for dark to-morrows,
Let the tempest hurt me less;
Let an angel come to bring me
Freedom from lifes weight and pain;
But the wise God, for my healing,
Sent me back to work again
Thought and talk bring truth no nearer,
Trouble lies in doubt for me-
Let the vision be made clearer:
God arise and set me free
Baf1ed. weary, restless. helpless,
L prayed on through all the night;
But God spoke amid the darkness:
Hork thy way out into light.
am weary for the faces
Thou hast taken to Thy Heaven;
have prayed so long for graces
That [ see to others given.
Friends most dear are taken from me,
In my path grim evils lurk.
What can change these troubles for me?
And God answered: OnlY WOrk.
Still L cried: 0 God deliver.
Work is but the common lot,
And my griefs will last forever
If Thy strong hand help me not.
But the Master knew: His answer
Came in fresh tasks multiplied.
Ana my prayer for blessings brought me
Chiehs work, on every side.
Sc l took the duties pressing
Near me, and with patience sought
To perform the work: what blessing
Has the mere endeavor wrought!
Work can make the sad light-hearted,
Work makes strong the young and old,
Work wins treasures far more costly
Than the idlers gems and gold.
Therefore work! God calls thee to it,
Not in anger, but in love.
Take thy work with JOY, and do it
As to please thy God above.
All life's best has not been taken
While good work remains to thee:
Let thy heart grow glad in labor:
Love and work, and happy be.

To Live RighteOusly.

What is such living? 1t is the kind
of living that relates itself rightly to
ones neighbors The word righteous
covers all the social moralities, all the
business moralities, which one is to
sustain in his relation with others. 1t
means that you shall be strictly honest
in your dealings, that you shall never
contribute to mar the fair fame of
your neighbor, that you shall
not CRAFTY your personal selfish
ness at the expense of anothers
good; it means that you should be a
moral nobleman in society The godly
life is one which cultivates right rela-
tions to God. There is many a man
who claims to be righteous; that is,
who means to be right in his relations
to his fellows, yet who, at the same
time, forgets to be godly. But in the
Christian scheme godliness is en-
phasized as the very life of all the
moralities. A right relation to God is
the first essential to all other right
relations in lesser spheres. Godliness
is the vitalizing heart on which depend
all'the virtues of perfect character

TRUE POLlTENE ESS,

An Expression in the Outward Manner of
Good Heart Within.
Politeness is polish, whether it be
that of the diamond or a piece OF
leather.
National Baptist world., 1894-10-26

Christian politeness is the expression
in the outward manner of a good heart
within.
From any way of looking at it po-
Ilteness is good thing. 1t is to be ex-
pected of the well-rounded Christian
character, and is not to be despised be-
cause it may hide deformity and cor
ruption. Rightly considered, it is a
result of that charity which speaketh
no evil and of that soft answer which
turneth away wrath. 1t is the result
OF good breeding, and the better and
more Christian the breeding the more
genuine the politeness will be.
Some people pride themselves on
their bluntness, their plain speaking;
but such pride is often unworthy, and
those who profess it are misnaming
selt concelt, lmpertinece and brutality.
Real character is the main thing in
life; but, as far as other people are
concerned-and concern for other peo-
pie is characteristic of the best char
acter-pollsh is essential. The most
ordinary agate finely polished will
give more pleasure than a diamond in
the rough. Moreover, as the outward
appearance is what men iudre by. we
have no right to misreprasent our
Christianity by violation in manner
of the golden rule of life
The cultivation of politeness is verv
likely to have good effect on the
character. The man who acts like
gentleman is very likely to become a
gentleman; and he who carries out the
golden rule in practice may vet find it
installed in his heart. 1t is a difficult
thing to wear a mask undiscovered;
but If pOllteness be at first but mask.
IN course Of time it is likely to mold
the features to its own shape.
From purely selfish standpoint DO
likeness pays. The young man start
ing out in life should wear this polish
of manner on the same principle that
he should attend to neatness of person
and clothing. These little amenities
OF LIE count Tor great deal, and MANY
are the successful men of affairs. in
business, politics or the professions.
who owe their success largely to the
polish which always attracted and
never repelled. Further, that polite
ness which belongs to the gentleman
is part of an orderly habit of life
which in itself brings success.
1t is the duty of the young man to
make the most of himself in every
legitimate way, and it is also duty to
give pleasure to those about him. Po-
liteness, even of the dictionary sort,
hath its own reward. How much
greater is the reward of that Christian
politeness which is the reflection, or
the shining through, of a Christian
haracter-Young Mems Era.

JUST THEIR STYLE.

e
Republican papers have copied the
Misrepresentation of a Sanpete sheet
in reference to the action of the coun-
~ court, in paying the officers who
went after the sIayers of Sheriff Burns.
1t was stated that the Republican pur-
sue1s received but So, and some of
them nothing for 1ileir services, while
a Democrat was paid S42 for his work
and all because THE county court is
Democratic. That was a nice little
item for our lpca1 Republican paper to
reproduce and aanplify. But 1T has care
fully uefrained from copying the truth
about the matter. as. explained by the
Ephraim Enterprise, though it clips
another paragraph from the same col
umn of that paper.
The facts in the case are said to be
these: AS soon as the news of the kill
ing or Sheriff Burns reached the diff
ferent Sanpete towns, possees were or
ganized in every populous place in the
county to hunt for the assassins. The
Mayor Of Manti among others engaged
some men for that purpose. The coun-
ty court received a telegram from
Spring City asking that men be sent
there, and an effort was made by the
court to have these men who were
about to start go to Spring City, but
the Mayor sa4d no, they would go
where he told them and they went.
The court then looked for men else
where and secured tine services of Jens
p. Larsen, Republican, and George
Peacock, Democrat, and sent them in
answer TO the summons.
When the county court made appro-
priations to pay for the services of the
special officers, it paid only the men
whom that body had hired. The Re
publican received $4S: the Democrat $33.
The reason for the difference was that
the former killed his horse on the trip
and therefore received more compensa-
ton than the latter. That is how the
Democratic county court discrimin-
ated in this matter.
As TO the bills presented to the coun-
~ court by persons wflom the court
had not called upon TO act as officers,

much more cause for complaint than
there is now, and that the very papers
which have published the untruthful
charges which are here exposed, would
have raised much greater lamentations
than those out of which they have en-
deavored to make little bogus politi-

Gossrr In PLACE OF PROOF.

We should think that readers OF our
morning contemporary who use their
own Judgment, would see on what in
substantial ground that paper bases all
Tits gross insinuations in reference to
the acts Of the Utah Commission, in
their official work of canvassing the
election returns
There has not yet been offered one
solid piece of evidence which viii justi-
fly the charges of fraud, that have been
hurled in all directions without any
definite aim except at the Utah Com
mission. The latest attempt to manu-
facture something that will supply the
place of evidence, is the agitation about
the broken key in Third precinct bal
lot box, and an alleged statement from
a Box Elder county Democrat Neither
contains anything but the most shad-
owy of attenaated differences.
The ballot box which was received
by the Utah Commission from the
Third precinct, with key broken in the
lock, has cut no figure in the recount,
from the fact that it has not been
opened, but was sealed up by the Com
mission, who received the broken key
when the box was brought by the cleo
ton judge. The Tribune, which tried
to make a new sensation ont of a sim
PIE occurrence that was told of weeks
before by The Herald, shows its over
yeening anxiety to make a mountain
Of mystery out of a mite of a fact.
And in now boldly asserting that it was
'a deliberate lie," it exhibits Its pol
ished, gentlemanly procliyities and its
understanding of what constitutes an
argument.
The Democrat from Box Elder county
is quoted in the usual manner in which
the Tribune coiors and distorts the
utterances of its reporters victims, but
that does not matter. because. as in
the case of the Third precinct affair
here referred to, the ballot box which
Republicans fear contains some more
proof of error in counting, has not been
opened by the Commission. The gen.
tleman from Box Elder is thus repre-
scented: ''He declares that the discrep-
ancies figured out by the Commission
against Malad precinct, do not exist,
and that if the Commission had opened
the box they would have found exactly
the same ballots as the tally sheet
shows"
Is there a Malad precinct in Box
Elder county? Has the Commission
figured OUT any discrepancies
against Malad precinct? If the bal
lot box has not been opened, what is all
the trouble about? These are questions
which perhaps our contemporary will
answer with some pet and personal
epithet.
We refer to this stuff that our readers
may see the kind of proofs" which
that paper is offering to the public TO |
support its charges of fraud, and its |
endeaVors to give Utah a black eye in
the sight Of the world. We repaat
there has not yet been offered a. scin-
tilla Of direct evidence that anvtbine
wilfully wrong has been done in tbe
matter OF the ballot boxes, and until if |
IS Forthcoming no good can be accom-
piished by the clamors of partisan |
papers and rampant demagogues.
