Mr.. lngersoll is reported to have
said, "How do you know that there
IS any such God as the God of the
Bible! Did anybody ever see him ?"
No, Mr.. Ingersoll; we never saw him.
We might ask him if he had ever seen
his own brains-if he has, he hasn't
seen much. Astronomy tells us that
the sun is ninety-hve millions OF
miles from this earth, and if it were
a hollow sphere it would contain a
thousand worlds like ours; and a
man asks you and me if we had ever
seen God, and wouldn't believe there
was God because he hadn't seen
Him. Astronomy tells us that there
are eighty millions of solar systems

know they all revolve around the

The bridge TO Paradise.

Al Sirat is the name OF an imaginary
bridge between the earth and the Mo
hammedan Paradise 1t isnot so wide as
spiders thread, and those laden with
sin fall over into the abyss below. Just
so narrow is the bridge between health
and illness, and many there are who fall
into the abyss of chronic invalidsm,
solely from the fact that they do not
know what to do to get well. For so
many women suffering from diseases pecu-
liar to their sex, DR.. Pierce's Favorite
Prescription has proved an invaluable
boon. For prolapsus, inflammation of
the uterus, suppressions and all diseases
arising thereirom, it is'truly unequaled in
its powers of cure.
California towns have been inundated
and railroad traffic badly interrupted by
snowstorms.
Now is the Time.
The benefit to be derived from good
medicine in early spring is undoubted,
but many people neglect taking any until
the approach of warmer weather, when
they wilt like a tender flower in hot
sun. Something must be done to purify
the blood, overcome that tired feeling and
give necessary strength. Vacation is
earnestly onged for, but many weeks,
perhaps months, must elapse before rest
can be INDUCED in. To impart strength,
and to give feeling of health and vigor
throughout the system, there is nothing
equal to Hoods Sarsaparilla. 1t seems
perfectly adapted to overcome that pros
tration caused by change of season, eli
mate or life, and while it tones and sus-
tains the system it purifies and renovates
the blood.

The Fly in Amber.
In one Of the European museums may
be seen piece of amber, in which is deep
ly embedded perfect fly. Now, neither
the amber nor the fly are curiosities, but
the curiosity Consists in how the fly got
into the amber. An equally wonderful
curiosity may occasionally be seen in
country drug stores, in the shape OF huge
drastic cathartic pills, put in cheap wood
or pasteboard boxes. The curiosity
with these "okers," consists in knowing
who asks for them, when it is generally

TO CHILDLEss PEOPLE.

A praiseworthy movement has been
started which ought to receive the aid
of every person in the city belonging
to the class appealed to. 1t is for the
benefit Of the children in the Orphans
Home, the purpose being to provide
them each with a Christmas gift, that
they may feel they may have some
one in the world who cares for them
and seeks their happiness although
they have no parents to shower upon
them the tokens of affection which all
children crave.
The committee having the matter in
hand desire twenty-five cent contribu-
lions from people who have no chill
dren Of their own to make presents to-.
This includes unmarried men and wo-
men as well as childless married folks.
All the bachelors and old maids in the
community, and all the widows and
widowers and husbands and wives
without offspring will surely want to
give a quarter for this laudable OBJ
ject.
The committee desire contributions to
be forwarded or left at the Office of
The Salt Lake Herald, with the name
of the donor unless it is desired to
withhold the name. The funds thus
received. with the amount which will
be collected by private solicitation, will
| be devoted to the purpose named and

A LEGISLATIVE DUTY.


One of the immanent duties of the
first state legislature of Utah will be to
enact a general election law. The
Otah Commission will expire as an
official body with the birth of the new
state. There are many things in our
territorial election laws that need to
be changed, and they should be swept
away and a statute be framed which
VIII meet the demands of the times.
There is pretty good framework in
the existing election laws on which to
FASHION a competent election system.
Registration is essential to it. Meth
DDS and officers should be provided for
which will ensure a complete and hon
est registration of qualified voters, and
prevent those frauds which were COM
planned of under the imperfect revis-
| ions Of Republican commission man
agement. 1t should be made possible
for every qualified citizen to vote at
every election, and none should be de-
prived of the privilege on a frivolous
technicality. The latest improvements
on voting methods ought to be care
fully studied. The Australian ballot
has been adopted by several states to
| much advantage. 1t is, however, rather
cumbersome. The voting machine used
in some parts of the State of New York
appears to be the most perfect, safe
and reliable invention known for that
purpose. Its cost would be perhaps too
| great for general use in Utah, but the
n1an iS worth looyincr into
Every safeguard possible should be
thrown around the ballot box to pre-
vent illegal voting, and a proper sys-
tenn of making up, verifying and can
wasting the returns should be devised,
The trainers of the law may profit by
the experiences of the past, both with
and without the needless body created
by the Edmunds act, and forced upon
this territory.
Adequate provisions for the punish
ment Of fraud of any and every kind in
relation to the elective franchise ought
to be made, for corruption at the polls
means corruption in all branches of
the state government, and the purity
of our commonwealth cannot be MAIN
tanned without the purity Of elections
We mention this matter now so that
the members-elect of the state legisla-
ture may have it in mind, and that
they may prepare themselves to con-
slider the question intelligently when
it shall be presented in the assembly.
We ought to have a, complete law en-
bracing the subjects of state, county
and municipal elections, general and
special, the qualifying and commits
sioning of officers and everything per-
tanning to election affairs. This is but
one of the questions to engage the at
tention of the legislature, yet it is of
the utmost Importance

ENFORCEMENT OF THE LAWS.

Ex-President Harrison has written
an article entitled. This Country OF
OURS" and in it he says some things
that will meet with the appreciation
of every American citizen who really
cares for law and order. Speaking of
the great necessity Of the people in
sisting upon the strict enforcement OF
the laws, he says:
We need general assemblies of the
people in the smaller subdivisions, to
be held regularly once or twice year,
town meetings in which two questions
only Shall be considered: First, are the
public officers faithfully and honestly
transacting the public business? Sec
ond. are the laws-not this law, nor
that, but all iaws-enforced and
obeyed? All questions of law reform
should be excluded, left to parties or
societies organized to promote them.
The enforcement of the law, whether
we opposed or aided the making of 1t;
the strict accountability Of public Of
fcers. whether we opposed or aided

AT 1T AGAIN.

The editor Of the Tribune is fired
with an unholy ambition to such heat
that he is ready to burn up anybody
and everybody who is likely to
stand in his way and liable
to put his nose out of joint. The
"streak of sunshine" approaches the
danger line so closely that it gives
our neighbor pain in the eyes and
obscures what little of his journalistic
vision is left. Here is what the Tri-
bune editor has to say on the with
drawal of Salt Lake City from the
contest for the Republican national
conventions:
1t seems that without consultation,
advice or authority, Col. Trumbo for
mally withdrew Salt Lake City as an
applicant for the place to hold a Ma
tional convention. and did it a day be.
fore the committee met.
Then follow some spiteful remarks
about the Colonel's going to Washing
ton on purpose to work in the interest
of San Francisco. Now the truth Of
the matter was thus told in the Asso-
ciated Press report or the proceedings,
which the Tribune editor might have
found in the Geographic columns of
that paper:
When Utah was reached in the call
of States, Committeeman Lannan an
nounced that although Salt Lake had
intended to present her claims for the
convention she had been so persuaded
by the eloquence of San Francisco that
| Salt Lake withdrew from the contest.
Does the Tribune editor and rival Of
Col. Trumbo meal TO say that P. H.
Lannan went to washington to work
in the interest of San Franciscan"
/ Hardly, we should say. But If the
withdrawal without consultation, adj
vice or authority" of Salt Lake City
from the contest in favor Of San Fran
cisco, is evidence of work iii the inter-
est of the latter, then it is clear that
the denunciation of the Tribune falls
on the head of it's own manager. The
Tribune aspirant ought to read his own
paper and not render himself more RI
diculous than he already appears,
while climbing to the place he lusts
after and exhibiting himself the more
the higher UP he reaches.

ALLEN G. THURMAN.


The announcement of the death Of
ex-senator Allen C. Thurman was not
entirely unlocked for, for a month ago
the whole country expected it and was
glad to welcome him back to life, for
he was one whom the country delighted
to honor. Republicans as we'll as DEM
ocrats loved to speak Of him as the
Old Roman
! A Virginian by birth, Che was born
in Lynchburg, November IS, 1879, he
removed with his parents to Chilli
cothe. Ohio. when six years of age. He
started life as a surveyor. but studied
law in the Office Of Governor William
Allen, being admitted to the bar in
1885. In 1874 he was elected to Con-
sress, serving one term and declining
a denomination. In 1851 he was ele-
waited to the supreme bench of Ohio,
serving as chief justice for two years.
In 1866 he was the Democratic nomi-
nee for governor Of Ohio against R.
B. Hayes. but was defeated. He was
elected to the United States Senate
March 4, 1869, succeeding Ben Wade,
and was reelected in 1874. AS Sena-
tor he introduced the Thurman act,
the object Of which was to compel the
Pacific roads to fulfil their obligations
to the government.
He was a candidate for the presi-
Dental nomination from his party a
number of times, but never received
it. In 1888 he received the nomination
for Vice-President, and a very large
portion of the Democratic party
/ thought that had he been given the
first place on the ticket instead of Mr..
| Cleveland the party would have Won
OF his career in the Senate, Mr..
Blaine in his Twenty Years in Con-
gress,'' speaks in these terms:
Mr.. Thurman's rank in the Senate
was established from the day he took
his seat, and was never lowered dur
! ing the period of his service. He was
an admirably disciplined debater, was
fair in his method of statement logi-
cal in his argument, honest, too, in his
! conclusions. He had no tricks of dis
cussion, no catch phrases to secure at
tention, but was always direct and
manly. His retirement from the Senate
was serious loss to his party-a loss,
indeed, to the body.
He was rough and rugged in appear
ance but his soul was great and his
heart noble. and in his home he found
his greatest happiness. Speaking once
of his wife he said: "She has lived
to love me and to make my life happy,
and well. have done what I could
to make the world brighter for her"
And he might have added, ITO make
the world brighter for Others" If a
man tries not to make this world that
is so full of sorrow brighter and bet
ter he may be said to have lived in
vain. Love and sympathy and cheer
ing words and helping hands is what
mankind longs for and he who gives
most of them most blesses man. Such
a man was Allen G. Thurman. In the
performance of his duties he brought
honor to his country. He was a type
of man to whom a father might point
his son and say, Follow his exam
ule." The whole nation respected him
and recognized his worth, but to his
party he was almost an idol He was
a man. L. ii
