will partake of all the blessedness and
glory of natural immortality if that
shall be the truth of the matter. or if
Immortality be acquired, pure
faith, modest self-restraint and charity
shall secure it to the humblest of Gods
creatures, together with all it's advan-
tages.
What matters it if Messiah
shall come now-before the close
of the present century, or in
the twentieth or not for a thousand
years hence? If one have q pure faith,
modest self-restraint-whic 1 take it
is righteousness-and charity, he would
be ready to receive the Master come
when or how he might; and no man
need worry when that coming shall be;
for if the Master doth not soon come
to him, he will soon go to him, and in
either event the same result will OBJ
tafn-the man will be with the Christ
This, then, is the substance of the
matter-eschatology is a small affair.
1t will take care clf itself; the thing in
the main to strive for is, "a pure faith,
modest self-restraint, and charity" as
the early Christian did; the rest may be
left for Gods unfolding.

ON THE SITUATION.

In another part of this issue will
be found a thoughtful analysis of the
situation as TO silver by Mr.. NJ. Grant
Hamilton; which, following immedi-
ateiy as it does the meeting held in
this city by Messrs. Warner, Bartine
and Johnson, since it follows very
much the line of their argument, can
not fail to be of interest.
Pertinent questions are asked both
in the article of Mr.. Hamilton and by
representatives of the bimetallic third
party movement, who SO recently were
with us. Such as-are the people Of the
west sufficiently devoted to the cause
of silver to break party ties to Sc
cure free coinage? Are they for party
first and afterwards for free coinage,
or the reverse? If the south will break
its party ties for free coinage will the
west do the same? These are ques-
lions that silver men in the old par
ties will surely be compelled to meet
and answer in some effeetual way if
neither of the old parties can be
brought to favorable action.
But these questions which the third
party movers put to Democrats and
Republicans suggest questions for
them to answer. For example, we are
of opinion that by diligent effort, effec-
tive organization and fearless, aggres-
sive action, the silver men in the Dem
ocratic party, since they constitute
the majority of that party can carry
its national convention for free and IN
limited coinage by Independent action
of the United States. In sthe event Of
their doing that and Incorporating it
in the party's regular platform and
nominating a man for president will
the advocates of the third party move
ment, Populists and others. so far
leave their vagaries on other economic
doctrines and be sufficiently patriotic
to rise above all other considerations
and assist the Democrats in electing
a president?
Or if the silver Democrats cannot
carry their convention for free silver,
but in a body leave it, and in behalf
of the great body of free silver DEM
ocrats whom they represent, being not
only the majority of the Democratic
party but the majority, as we believe,
of the people of the United States who
demand the free and unlimited coinage
of both gold and silver-will the ad-
vocates of the third party movement
and others assist in the election of
that ticket?
The situation is full of difficulty, we
admit, but we still believe that the
great financial question will be set
tied by the Democratic party. And
until we see more evidence to the con-
trary than now appears we cannot be-
lieve otherwise.

KEEP YOUR MONEY AT HOME.


Under the above heading a country
exchange says:
A large amount of money is thrown
into the hands of the Salt Lake mer-
chants every year during conference
by the country people for goods they
can buy right at home. Do they ever
think they are hurting themselves as
we'll as the town in which they live?
We think not, or they would not do it,
There is some truth in this, but the
people of the state who come to this
city twice a year always expect to do
some trading here. For this there are
several reasons. Among them the first
is that they have larger field to choose
their wants better.
Why should not the people who come
to Salt Lake City at conference time
buy their goods here that they would
buy from their local merchants if they
did not come? The merchants would
buy them here, or send east or west
for them.
If money were always kept at home
there would be very little business or
commerce in this world. If that theory
were rigidly carried out, universal
stagnation would follow. Money is for
the purpose of facilitating an exchange
of commodities between people. That
is it's function, and hence it is called
a circulating medium.
If the different cities and towns of
the state were all to follow the adj
vice of our exchange, times would be
ten times duller than they are. In bus
iness as in all things else where there
is no circulation there is stagnation.

SERICULTURE.


Senate bill 112, for the establishment
of sericulture in Utah, has been passed
by the house and now goes to the gov
ernor for his signature. Whether it
will receive his signature we cannot
say, but his excellency cannot but
know that the state treasury's condi-
ton is such that any grants of public
moneys to any private concern is not
warranted now. The state is going
to have great difficulty in meeting it's
own legitimate expenses and the peo-
pie may congratulate themselves if a
deficit does not confront them at the
end of the first year of statehood.
Sericulture in Utah is no experiment;
it passed that point more than two
decades ago. When the bill was before
the senate, President G. NJ. Cannon
in speaking upon it said that the best
Utah. His statement was positive. I'M
qualified by any belief. This was be-
cause the fact he stated had been
demonstrated in the past.
Such being the case, what is the
necessity for any bounty on cocoons?
If the people have not enterprise
enough in them to raise cocoons with
out being bribed to do so by bounty
they will, if they embark upon the
business now, soon want more bounty
to keep it up.
If sericulture cannot be proftably
engaged in in Utah unless aided by the
state, then it is not proper industry
to be undertaken. Why not give the
farmer a bounty for raising grain and
stock? the miner for delving in the
earth and bringing forth the precious
metals? Reward those who have made
the state what it is

/ AS to 1.-The paralysis of American in
dustries and the wholesale lowering of
American wages caused by Democratic
tariff wrecking is just one word
that characterizes properly that kind of
talk, it is the good, round, old Eng
lish word-"humbug. or the shorter.
but equally expressive American word
rot" The paralysis that came to
American industries and the consequent
lowering Of American wages was not
caused by the changes made from the
Mckinley protective tariff to the Will
son free trade tariff As a matter of
fact, the difference between those laws
was not sufficient to account for the
stagnation of American industry and
the lowering of American wages. The
Wilson law is highly protective tariff
rather than a revenue tariff, and that
is the chief objection that can be
urged against it. Stagnation came to

most villainous legislation which de-
monetized silver and second by the
