We cannot promis. much in the
educational work to young man who
would rather spend his evenings telling
wonderful stories on the street corners
than in earnest study or in reading the
beautiful sentiments OF our best authors.
Neither can we promise much to n
young lady who would rather spend her
time in gossiping with her neighbor
concerning the latest party, fashion, or
their new beau. Education is pearl
that lies too deep for such.
The large majority OF the 9Th and 9th
grades, if we may Judge from the effort,
realize the Importance OF hard, honest
work.
The next National Educational As.
ISOLATION will be held at Washington.
We were in hopes that it would be held
at SALE Lake City.
Some new regulations are being
adopted for the schools which l, for one,
believe will become very beneficial.
There is an old maxum which say g

We have an enrolment of about 74O
the largest enrolment we have ever
had.
The interest in education is growing
very rapidly in Lehl as shown by the
enrolment. We hope it will ever con
tinue to do so.
Is THE WHALE A FISH?
The 9TH grade, after much discussion
of the subject, has decided it is not a
fish. The class also made objections to
the statements made by some text books
that the whale spouts water. The
argument went to show this was incor-
rect. That the spoutings of the whale
is vapor instead OF water.
The lama is a very useful animal

THE TRANsMIssIssiPPI CONGRESS,


There Ia no denying the fact that
the fates are operating to bring this
city, and the community OF which 1t
the metropolis, more and moro prumi-
nently before the nation ana the
world. An event in line with this
testiuy is the session OF the Trans.
mississippi Congress, which Is APP
pointed TO be held In this city, COM
menclng on Wednesday, July 14.h.
All Indications confirm the belief that
1t will be the most numetously at
ten ded session Uf that body ever held =.
The congress will sit In the Assem-
bly, Hail three successive days, the
last being Friday, July 16'b. The
following dsy, Saturday, will be de.
voted to excursions, recreation, etc;
and it is expected that The congress IN
body will attend services In
the Tabernacle on Sunday, the 18th.
On Monday, the 10th. will begin
the festivities oil the Pioneer
semi.centennirl celebration, and be-
yond doubt every member OF the
congress, who can possibly spare the
time, will remain to witness and take
part in them.
The meeting OF this body in this
city 10 matter Of great Importance
In many ways, besides the prestige
reflected upon the city and Stale
through being thus honored. The
congress comprises membership OF
about six hundred men, who are
selected from the various states west
Of the Mississippi by methods which
insure ability, patriotism, aud a
thorough knowledge Of the needs and
conditions prevailing In the great
West; and to have such a body OF
citizens brought face to lace
| with what cur State has 10 offer In
the way Of resources and Inducements
10 investors cannot but rebound to thu
great benefit OF the people.
This is year in which our ctizsnt
have a grand opportunity to show the
world what manner OF people they
are, and In what sort of a region they
live. 1t ia year OF events that sppea
to their patriotism and public spirit;
and We look with confidence to SET
them do full justice to themselves snc
their opportunities.

1HE sABBAIH DAY.

A correspondent from San Pedro,
Cochise county, Arizonn, in COM
munioation TO the NEWS argues for the
observance OF Saturday as Sabbath
instead OF Sunday. He says Saturday
Ia the day sci apart by the Mosaic Law
aud that Sunday is set apart by the
R3man church. The,e are two
grounds generally set forth by the
Seventh uny advocates. but both are
wrong.
II 10 not historically true that the
Roman church ia Responsible for the
Sunday observance. Long before The
Church had become the Roman church
the Christians observed Sunday ss
their day OF rest. Tue very fact
that Emperor Constantine Issued
DEGREES concerning this matter proves
that it was general Observance
among the Christians, whose favor he
sought TO gain by legalizing their
peculiar customs, and only those who
close their minds to conviction can
fail to see that the fret day OF the week
was set apart Us the LORDS day IL the
very fret Christian Church, while the
Apostles were living and the light OF
revelation sbone among them. Why,
| else, did Jetus appear repeatedly on
that day after His resurrection? why
does Paul refer to 1t rs common
custom for the Christians to come to.
eether on that day? And why was
the Apostle John Sin the spirit"
on the LORDS day, and not
on the Sabbath? Every reference
to this subject In the New
Testament ina piles that the R'surrec-
ton day was recognized as the Chris
tian Sabbath by the first followers Of
Jesus.
With regard to the Old Testament
| Sabbath, IL has recently been proven
that this WAS not o fixed day in the
week, but movable holiday whichlin
the course OF seven years fell on each
Jay In the week in turn. The reason for

A WORD FOR MOSES.

We do not know with what grace
Christians generally accept the expires
sion SHE dirty days Of Moses" sttrib'
uted to Rev. Henry Varley in an nd.

Ing on the requirements OF the
Mosaic law; but by u great many 1t
VIII he considered highly inappropri-
ate, II not scurrilous. 1t has the
familiar ring OF the attack OF agnostics
aud "higher critics" on the Scrip
lures.
The law given through Moses, it Is
well known, contained many provis-
ions not intended to be pefpetuated
In the subss quent dispensa;ions. 1t
was coniessedly burdeusome and con-
sisted largely OF outward ordinances;
yet 1t was OF diviue origin. It's positive

mated from Jehovah, who had right
to enforce obedience The result OF
conformity TO these requirements was

dillon that DO set Of merely human

people holiness, happiness anu pros

development OF the nation and shove
all to save them from the destroying
sins common among their neishbors
A low given by God Himself for such
purposes and accomplishing such end,
when obeyed, deserves 10 be men
