from acknowledging all her reasons to her

John A. Gardner said he hada de-
sire to always be on hand to do all
that may be required of him, as
he has children entrusted to his
care and desired to teach them the
ways of life. Our children are
our Joy and we should teach them
the ways of the Lord.
Bishop Red said he realized
great responsibility rests upon
those who address the youth of Zion
as we are held to account for what
we teach them; and in raising up
families we should teach the youth
to be equally united and not take
companions of those who are not
of our faith, as being unequally
yoked brings trouble.
Ben net Bracken knew thatin our
meeting together we are trying
to teach the youth the ways of the
Lord and it does seem to me that
we are doing the most Of our teach
ing to the youth, and that is as it
should be, and we should be as
strict in keeping the command
ments of God, as those to whom
they were given anciently. We
should be sure that we make good
record while we live.

PRIESTHOOD MEETING.
SATURDAY., March IA. 2 %. m.

Charles Smith said it is duty
that we owe to our children to
. keep record of when we joined
the church, as many of us who are
now holding the priesthood are the
first of our fathers House who
joined the Church, and in years to
come this information will be very
valuable.
President Macarthur said the
Bishops and leading brethren are
here to do business for the benefit
of the people, and said that the
High Council in connection with
the presidency of the Stake, have
had under consideration the best
way to raise means to keep up our
Stake fund and that they had de-
cided to call the Bishops together
and let them decide the best way
to meet the expenses of our Stake.
Said so me Of the presidency had
visited every Ward in the stake
during the last three months and
had found the saints generally do
ing we'll. Advised the Bishops to see
that all the Saints are visited and
none Of them neglected, and teach
them the true principles Of the
gospel, and see that the poor are
provided for.
James G.. Bleak said that it is
really necessary to send in their
annual Reports on or before the
end of the year, rs also to report
the condition of the poor in each
Ward.
President Macarthur said those
who claimed to be saints should
pay their tithing. They should
not drink strong drinks or use to-
bacco, but should do all in their
power to keep the commandments
of God and then God will bless
them in all their labors. He said
the Bishops of the different Wards
should always see that young men
whom they recommend to 60 to the
Temple, are ordained Elders in
their Ward before they send them.

g e. B. Snow said we have much
to be thankful for, as God has
certainly blessed us, as people,
in our labors and has provided for
our wants. We should be diligent
in doing orr duty as members Of
of this church, and am pleased
that one Bishop, at least, has gone
to work in good earnest to look
after those who are hayward, and
in most cases when those who are
hayward and are not doing any
thing to assist the poor or to do
any duty that is required Of them
as Latter-day Saints, they are, as
rule, willing to turn from their
evil habits and ask to be dealt mer-
cifully with, and they will gener-
ally do better when they see they
are looked after, and when we, as
leaders of the people, neglect our
duties and allow those who are
hayward to go on in evil doing, we
are doing them an injury by not
looking after them. Advised
every Bishop to look after the way
ward and assist them to reform
Advised those who are called to
be helps to the Bishops, as teachers
to be diligent in looking after the
people and see that the saints are
carefully watched over and guarded
that the adversary may not have
power to lead them from the path
of virtue and honor, and in per-
forming this labor God will bless
you.
Bishop Bringhurst said that he
desired to represent the Toquer-

the people attended meetings reg

Heber Naeglei, who was on a
mission, and his wife had died
leaving 5 children, and some others
had suffered with measles and there
were good deal of sickness, but
he was thankful that things looked
much better now.
Bishop Bunker represented the
the Bunkerville Ward. Said their
sabbath schools and meetings and
fast meetings we're we'll attended;
and as rule, the people of Bunk
erville were a good people. We
often say we are doing as we'll as
we can, but / sometimes think we
might do better than we do in
many ways. Do we pay our tithing
Do we keep the word Of Wisdom

morning. / trust that oil have
come here to learn the ways OF the
| Lord. We are progressive
people and we have with us
Prophets who give the word of
| God to us az we stand In need.
The saints are improving in many
ways. Our children are being
taught in the Sabbath School, by
their teachers, superientendants
and others, in their youth, the
ways of the Lord. The Home
Missionaries report rs rule, the
people are striving to keep the
laws of God. Yet they find some
who are not up to the mark in some
things as they should be.
Edward Bunker Sr. said he was
pleased to meet with the saints in
conference this morning, to be
taught the ways of the Lord. The
power Of God has been manifest
in very many ways in gathering
this people from the nations of the
earth, in keeping with the proph-
ecies of the prophets of old where
he said he would gather his people
together in the Latter-days and
make of them a great people in the
Mountains.
Edwin d. Woolley, prest. Of the
Kanab Stake, said that in travelling
among the Saints he found the
people of God are a great deal
alike and that, as rule, they are
improving in many ways, was glad
to see the improvements in the new
Washington Field, and he
wondered if the young people are
making as good strides spiritually
as they are temporarily. The youth
of this people have great many
advantages that their parents did
not have, as many of our parents
have suffered many things in order
to raise up their families in these
quiet, peaceful valleys. When
our parents joined this Church
they did not consider any sacrifice
too great for this cause, that they
might be accepted, of the Lord and
his servants. This is the work Of
the Lord in which we are engaged,
and it is just as necessary that
every one, both old and young,
should have a testimony Of the
truth Of this work as it was that
our aged brethren and sisters
should have which have had to
endure SO much for This work.
Reuben Gardner said he thought
he was called to report the labors
of his mission. On arriving in
Europe he was sent to Scotland,
the home of his father. While I
was there [ enjoyed my labors very
much. The way they are doing
now in that country is to go from
house to house to every one where
they can get an opportunity and dis
tribute tracts, and seek to introduce
the principles Of the Gospel to the
people. 1t will take long time to
warn the people of that country,
with the present number of Elders
who are there. l visited many of
the different sects of religion, to find
out for myself if they have any
thing better than we, who profess
to be the Saints of the most high
but L found while they taught
many good principles, they do not
have the true principles of the
Gospel as restored to the earth in
this our day. l know this Gospel
is true and hope / will be true to
the end.

SPAIN MAKES DEMANDS.
Claims Big Damages From Uncle Sam for
Filibusters Going to Cuba.


Filibusters Going to Cuba
The Spanish government is prepar
ing big bill of damages 90 be pre-
sented to the United States on account
of the numerous expeditions alleged to
have gone from our shores to the re-
lief of the Cuban insurgents. In sup
port of its claims TO reparation it in
tends to invoke the precedent estab-
lished by the United States against
Great Britain in the celebrated Ala
bama claims awards made by the &C.
neva arbitration tribunal. Calderon
Carlisle, attorney for the Spanish lega-
ton at Washington, has prepared re-
port of the demands of Spain and the
same has been received by the u. s.
government. Mr.. Carlisle says the
United States has been made the base
of supplies for the Cuban insurgents
and filibustering expeditions have gone
from our shores very frequently. He
says: ITO tolerate this state of affairs
and these actions is violation
of the treaties of neutrality under
the law of the nations as they have
been proclaimed TO the rest of
the world by the United States.
To prevent and punish these acts,
which are in violation of the laws of
this country, it is believed that the
federal government has all the attrib-
utes of sovereignty with respect to the
subject under discussion and has for
their exercise the appropriate agencies
which are recognized among civilized
nations. Nor is it perceived what dis
tinction or difference in principle can
excuse the exercise of the diligence
commensurate with the existing emer-
gency which in the sight of the world
they required and enforced against
Great Britain at Geneva"
