We had a pleasant call from Elder
Samuel Miles Jr., in the interest of
the M. 1. A. He, in connection
with William w. Langston, at Rock
willie, occupied the time at our two
O'Clock meeting. Elder Miles gave
many encouraging remarks, which,
if given a practical test in our lives,
will'tend' to elevate us to higher
plane. He dwelt some length on
the Word of Wisdom showing the

mand of God both mentally and

ONE, REASON.

We republish in. another column
an article from the american
Agriculturist which goes to show.
up one of the many. things, which
all our agricultural system. There
is food in it for lots, Of thought,
and mostvof the resulting thought
will be Of the sort for the think
ing of which we are better off.
During the, last six. years the
imports of raw farm products have
averaged 226 millions. Of dollars
in value per year., Manufactured
farm products each year averaged
SO millions additional. Last year
the imports were heavierrthan ever,
1872 millions of dollars worth pass
ing our frontiers to find a. market
in the United, States. Will the
amount increase?' It is likely.
It is evident that screw is loose
in some portion. of our national
political and economic machine.
It will also be evident to most
people, that very protracted
search would not be needed to To-
cate the screw.
But having found it, will we
he able to tighten it? Yes, and
we ought to make the effort.
Those 1872 millions, of dollars
which went out of the country last
year to pay for farm products would
have brought to many of us much
more and better food and clothing
if they could. have been ex-
pended at home.
Is it economy for us to 60 abroad
for products of this nature when
SO many of1ourr people are idle,
and our industrial system is in need
OF just such Il stimulus as those
a22 millions.would be? Scarcely. |
Let us use a. homely illustration. |
Here at st. George we have a |
farmer,with few cow hides. We
also have asitanner to make leather |

Naval Demonstration by John
Bulls Warships Off the
Coast of Korea.
Intended as a Protest Against
the Kings Action in Yield
ing to Russia.
Rumored English Have Landed
Near the Mouth of the
Yangtse-kiang.

LONDON, Dec 27.-A special dispatch
from Shanghai says: 1t is reported
that II British warships are off Che
mulpo, Korea, southwest of Seoul, sup
porting the British consul's protest,
really amounting to an ultimatum,
against the kings practically yielding
the government of Korea into the hands
Of the Russian minister.
The protest is specially directed
against the dismissal of McLeavy
Brown, British adviser to the Korean
customs, in favor Of the Russian nomi-
nee. The news has produced conster.
nation at Seoul, which is heightened by
the knowledge that Japan has feet
of 30 ships awaiting the result of the
British representation that Japan fully
supports. Japan is irritated by the
Arrival of Russian Troops
in Korea and it is believed that she will
oppose them. According to advices
from Toxic, Japan has offered to assist
the officers at Pekin in drilling the Chi
nese army and to consent to postpone
ment of the war indemnity. Many of
the viceroys and Pekin officials favor
the proposal.
According to dispatch to The Daily
Mail from Shanghai, it is reported
there from reliable sources that a Brit
ish force landed at Chemulpo on Satur-
day and caused the reinstatement of
McLeavy Brown. The same dispatch
refers to "a native rumor" that the
Union Jack has been hoisted on an ISL
and in the mouth of the river Yangtse-
Kiang.

New YORK, Dec. 27.-James l. Glenn.

dixie, who is at the Lafayette hotel,
displayed one Of the costliest Christmas
trees, if not the costliest, which was
seen the world round. 1t would make

75O $50 gold pieces and Klondide nuggets

brought the total up to $50, 1000.
Last year the man who fixed up the
Christmas tree dined on Caribou meat,

pose of knife and fork.
The tree occupies space in the Hotel
Lafayette, and those fortunate or I'M

Pope 1ssues an Encyctical on the Manitoba
School Question.
ROME, Dec. 27.-The pope's encycli.
cal on the Manitoba school question is
published here. After recalling the re-
igious history of Canada and eulogiz-
ing its scholastic institutions his holi-
ness expresses regret at the decisions
taken seven years ago in Manitoba rela-
tive to the Catholic schools and points
out the rights of Catholics, according to
the federal agreement.
The pope condemns a school system
based on religious neutrality, praises
the zeal the bishops have displayed on
the question; regrets that the Catholics
are not equally united. owing to
political passions, and admits that
the authorities have done some.
thing to diminish the inconveni.
ences of Manitoba shool legisla.
ton. But his holiness declares this to
be inadequate and exhorts Catholics to
persist in claiming all their rights,
though they must not refuse any partial
reparations obtainable, with tie view
to reduce the perils of the education of
the youth.
The encyclical says that in the event
of these being unobtainable Catholics
should provide their own schools and
adopt, under guidance of their bishops,
a programme Of study consistent with
their religion and all literary ard scien.

President Says Contributions VIII Bs

Thankfully Received.
WASHINGTON, Dec. ~. The follow
ing appeal to the American people has
been issued from the department of
state:
by direction of the president, the
public is informed that, in Difference to
the earnest desire of the government to
contribute by effective action towards
the relief of the suffering people in the
island OF Cuba, arrangements have been
perfected by which charitable contribu.
tlons, in money or money kind, can be
sent to the island by the benevolently
disposed people of the United States.
Money, provisions, clothing, medi.
cines and the like articles of prime
necessity can be forwarded to General
Fitzhugh Lee, the consul general of the
United States at Havana, and all ar.
tlcles, now dutiable by law, so con.
signed, will be admitted into Cuba free
Of duty. The consul general has been
instructed to receive the same and CO.
operate with the local authorities and
the charitable boards for the distribu-
ton OF such relief among the destitute
and needy people of Cuba.
'The president is confident that the
people Of the United States who have
on many occasions in the past respond
ed most generously to the cry for bread
from people stricken by famine or sore
calamity, and who have beheld no less
generous action on the part of foreign
communities when their own country
men have suffered from fire and food,
will heed the appeal for aid that comes
from the destitute at their own thres-
hold and especially at this season of
good will and rejoicing, give of their
abundance to this humane end.

three islands Of St. Thomas, st. Croix

islands were still for sale, at what price
they were held and whether any other

replied that she is still willing to sell
and that two European governments

These are supposed to be Great Britain
