SAM " PULLED UP De RIBBER."

Sam was a light-skinned darby
of middle age, with an ever bright
and ready reply for all. He was
employed in the street department
of the town Of D. One day a
gentleman, finding him at work
tearing up some cobblestones
from the street, and desiring to
hear one of his witty replies, asked
him what he was doing. sam re-
piled.
'Why, sar, User pullin' up destreet;

"Pull up the river! Why, Sam,
that's gigantic job. You'll have
to have to pump and haul many a

CORRESPONDENCE

Have the kindness to give me
room for little item in the Union.
In the Deseret News of April
30th 1896. I notice the following:
cat Spanish Fork, Utah, a con-
clave of Presby terrain ministers,
issued a manifesto excommunicat-
ing the Latter-day Saints from the
fellowship of Christians. In be-
half of myself and few other such
oddities, [ would say to these very
Reverend Ministers, gentlemen,
thank you, extremely. Much
obliged 10 We for the much
esteemed courtesy you have forced
upon us. Now the old adage has
it that "there is no loss without a
small gain" and as these pious
chaps lave unchristianized us, this
places us in a very uneviable posi-
ton. placing an embargo on our
ever reaching their Sectarian
heaven beyond the bounds of time
and space. Now it is a poor rule
that won't work both ways. Thus
if we are not worthy, in their esti-
nation, of going to their heaven.
of course we are not worthy of 60
ing to their hell; hence our unfeign-
ed gratitude,-oftimes it is very
distressing to part with friends,
but in their case, in the long and
never ending journey Beyond the
bounds of time and space" we
cordially say Bon voyage. But as
for me, [ do seriously object to
such an extended trip where there
is no space nor even stem-wlnd-
ing waterbury, or prize ring gong
to call time!

God has revealed in this our own

should learn to be self sustaining
and raise from the earth all that
we can, to make ourselves comfort
able, and we should produce that

around us and see what there is
that we need, that we can produce
at home, and not send our money
away for anything that we can pro-
duce In our midst. Advised the

in a way that we can make what

In recent speech at Phenix, c.
M. Frazier paid the following tribute
to the newspapers: zone of the
principal causes that has led up to
the fact that this country of ours is
recognized as the champion of liberty
is the free and untrammeled press
which this republic has ever main
tanned. Newspapers are the great
educators of peopel. Schools are
for children but newspapers teach
men and woman and they cram
knowledge down our throats whether
we will or not. The official who
dares try to muzzle the press occu-
pies office but once and is disgrace
to his country. "-Mohave CO. Miner.

foliage is not moistened by single
shower of rain; and it's branches
appear entirely dried up; but upon
piercing the trunk, particularly at
the rising of the sun, there flows a
sweet and nourishing yellow juice,
having balsamic perfume, with
many of the qualities of milk. In the
morning, the natives of the country
in which this vegetable fountain
grows, visit it with bowls, in which
they carry home its milk for their
children.

After the usual preliminaries
Elder John G. Mcguire said 1
am thankful omeet with the saints
in st. George where we enjoy each
others society in partaking of the
sacrament. Read part of the Lee
ture on Faith in the Doctrine and
Covenants showing that the tue
followers of Christ are willing to
make sacrifices for the Gospel they
have espoused, and showing that
this principle has brought the
blessings of heaven upon those
who have taken upon themselves
the name of Jesus in all ages, as
this is true principle. Showed
that the Saviour Of the world made
the greatest sacrifice that could be
made, and this was done for us ALL
Showed that the Pilgrim fathers
of this great American Nation sacri-
feed many things to place their
posterity upon this goodly land
that they might gain that freedom
to their offspring that they them
selves could not obtain in the land
of their nativity. And our fore
fathers made great sacrifices for
the benefit Of those who were yet
unborn. Showed that many men
who became famous on the earth
have sacrificed many things for the
benefit of mankind, among them
the great George Washington, OF
our own land. Encouraged those
present to be willing to sacrifice
their own personal feelings for the
benefit of our fellow man and to
carry the truths of heaven to all
mankind. Showed that many
among this people had sacrificed
their all that they might raise up
their posterity where the true
principles of the Gospel are taught
by those who have received that
faith which God has given to this
people through sacrifice.
Bishop Thomas Judd said it is
with feelings of Timidity that 1
speak to this people upon the things
pertaining to the gospel of Christ,
as L know that a great response
bility rests upon those who stand
up to instruct the people upon the
principles of the gospel, and we
need the spirit of God to inspire
our minds with the truths of heaven.
l can understand that the prophet
Joseph Smith was raised up by the
almighty to establish the gospel of
Christ in our own day and that
God, through him has established
his work upon the earth never
more to be taken from the earth,
L bear my testimony to you, my
brethren and sisters, that this Cos
pei is the true plan of salvation
and that it is our duty to teach these
principles to our fellowman. We
believe in literal salvation, that
we must have faith in God, and we
must repent of our sins and be
baptized by immersion, by one

Honolulu, Feb. 10-The 18th of jan
ua1y having been declared n national
holiday by the republic, invitations to
take part were sent to the diplomatic
and consular corps. Favorable replies
were received from all but the repre-.
sentatives of the United States, Eng
land, Japan and Franco. OF these rep
rcsentatives the last three stated in their
replies to this government that as their
governments had never recognized the
provisional government, and as the
holiday was given in celebration of the
formation of that government, they did
not feel it incumbent upon them to in
any way participate. Mr.. Willis re-
piled, stating that he would lay the
matter before Secretary Olney.
Minister Cooper denies the statement
published in the San Francisco papers
regarding his recent visit to Hawaii.
His trip to. Hilo was simply III con-
formity with tho policy of the govern
ment. There was nothing in the rumors
of secession of the people on the big
island to call for visit of any member
Of the government to Hilo.
