3 SIMMONS LIVER don't
forget to take t. The Liver gets sluggish

and the system becomes choked up by

You get THE BEST BLOOD when

will only be when the Liver is kept active.
Try Liver Remedy once and note the

Utah is now q state with all it's
glorious sovereignty and is provided
with entirely new running-gears
mostly of Republican type.
What may we not sxspest in the
future that is good. Utah's facili-
ties and resorces are unequaled in
the west. Her gold-felds are
brought TO light, are being devel-
oped every day and when silver is
remonitized, her silver mines will
take such boom as never before.

Venezuela boundary line between
British Guiana and the former re
public. President Cleveland's Of
fer to arbitrate the whole matter
was refused by Lord Salisbury and
the Presidents Message to Con-
gress made things look war-like.
The Presidents language was tenn

to his avoirdupois. 1t is hard to
estimate his weight as President;
it is, however many tons. He said
"Thers is no calamity which ma
ton can invite which equals that
which follows supine submission
to wrong and injustice and the
consequent loss of national self-re-
spsct and honor beneath which is
shielded and defended a peoples

known that both houses of Con-
grsss sustained the President.
The members of the Commission
appointed are satisfactory to all
our citizens. The American peo-
pie generally, without party con-
sideration, have sustained the
action.
It cannot be denied that the
common people of England re-
spect the Great Republic, but Eng
lish aristocrats fear the growth of
our country, and when the slave
holders rebellion was in force they
supplied vast amounts Of money
which enabled our country's enc
mics to purchase arms and NUM-
tons of war. They let their cruis-

and nearly swept our carrying
trade from the seas, from which
we have not yet recovered. Eng

The United States has history
and it is full of heroic deeds and

but the outlook is not entirely plain

gone to an extreme length in this
matter and is determined to stand

The TABERNACLE ORGAN.

A Now Years gift of a beautiful
Mason and Hamlin Pedal Organ,
was presented to the st. George
Choir, for it's use, for the benefit
of the Stake, under the direction
of the Presidency of the Stake, by
one of Utah's Pioneers and also a
Pioneer to Di1is, elder George
Woodward, who, by industry and
care has saved up a little means
for old age, and now has a little
surplus which he ia taking particu-
! lar pains to put whore it will do
the most good.
A few months ago he paid out
$4,000 in cash for Hea1se and
also purchased very nice set of
harness to match, and presented
both to the citizens of ST. George,
to be used free of charge, under
the direction of the City Council.
He helped the Brass Band to
means, also the Choir to Books
and other necessaries; and the Wild
ow and orphan have often had
cause to rejoice at his timely aid
Indeed Brother Woodward is
ono of Gods noblemen, always
looking for place to do good.
Although his body is not extra
large, he has a good big heart and
whole soul, and many one will
say amen to the words "God bless
you, brother Woodward, and pre-
serve you and yours in health and
peace, as long as you desire to live,
and then when you pass to that
Great Beyond, may those pearly
gates be opened by willing hands
and the angels of peace welcome
and escort you onward and upward
to your exaltation and glory.
The following is copy of the
PRESENTATION:
